	3:06pm PaulRobeson1920: Howdy Ya’ll!
	3:06pm spodiodi: lol brainiac
	3:06pm gilmour: Please keep your giant man hate to yourself. It gains nothing and it annoys the cat.
	3:06pm Miss G: brainiac: "one of theese deeeranged penguins. . .eez heading off into the interior of the vast continent, and with 5000 kilometers ahead of him, he is heading tooowords certain death. . ."

	3:07pm PaulRobeson1920: More Bells please
	3:07pm winston legthigh: hallo fabio! handy-attempt #1 at obtaining cynar was a strong failure. i gotta go to town for the good stuff.
	3:08pm βrian: Ah, there we go. Good afternoon.
	👻 3:08pm chresti: Hi Fabio and strong ones!
	3:08pm gilmour: Off to stand on line at the co-op. Catch ya later.
	👻 3:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Loving that photo more than I can possibly express.
	👻 3:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello.
	3:09pm Handy Haversack: D'oh, winston! Well, failure is our metier. Have you ever had an "Eastern" 2 parts rye, 1 part sweet verm, 1 part triple sec, a bit less than 1 part lime juice. Shake w/ ice, up. I leave it to you to determine how many pints there are to the part.
	3:10pm chocolate monk: hola doodoos
	3:11pm brainiac: @Handy: That'll put hair on whatever ya got.
	👻 3:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'd surely sign up immediately if they offered me carrot cake therapy. Worry about side effects later.
	3:15pm mariano: Hey Fabio, Crew, everyone.
	3:16pm brainiac: @wfmu listener phillip: I am now, thanks. youtu.be...
	3:16pm Handy Haversack: Perhaps not having a competent and duly licensed carrot-cake-alyst is what doomed the pictured institution, Ken. Hey, Mariano!
	3:18pm βrian: Would it put Heron Oblivion?
	3:18pm Joe Beuys: Fabio, please announce that cinephobe.tv is back on the air! Tonight at 6:30: Rare Fassbinder. Friday at 2 PM: two North Korean films! Thanks so much for alerting us to this free streaming treasure.
	👻 3:19pm Bas NL: Hey Fabio! Hey failure lovers!
	3:19pm Handy Haversack: Another winner, βrian!
	3:22pm mb: Hey Fabio and failures alike...
	3:24pm Chris from DC: Loving this Brume.
	👻 3:25pm chresti: Nice playlist picture, Fabio.
	3:26pm nic: love Brume!!!
	3:27pm nic: and Kollektief too!!!
	3:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...both a hairy & a well-lived in oblivion ...not a bit scary therapy - just ask Roky Erickson thru the thorazine voltage stayed inside put a mask on heard reports judged retorts ...fine companions this resort for the criminally insane I present this refrain & this cot of fine canvas for my unravelling brain...
	3:30pm Hubig Pie: U be a clever rabbit
	3:31pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio!
	3:32pm PaulRobeson1920: Sure is
	👻 3:33pm Bas NL: Wel-eer. Of times passed.
	3:34pm mariano: Hey Handy. Great to hear Creek & Kills on efd yesterday!
	3:34pm TDK60: I do plan to enjoy the show; we'll see...
	👻 3:35pm chresti: I will enjoy the show no matter what.
	3:36pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, yeah! It was a thrill. We just about fell over! Hi, chresti!
	3:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Count it up as a miracle that all the “NightSoil Men” of NYC are unemployed seemingly forever now
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Hi Handy!
	3:37pm Chris from DC: Yay, Marta!
	3:37pm VincentNifigance: An amateur (/ ˈ æ m ə tj ər-tj ʊər /; French: ; lit. 'lover [of something]')
	3:39pm YETI BOB: Hey Handy - completely unrelated to this show (or anything really) - Just wanted to tell you that a buddy and I took the two-man kayak up the Chicago River yesterday, starting at Ping Tom Park in Chinatown, up through downtown, through the harbor locks, and out into Lake Michigan, where we rendevoused with some friends on a sailboat. It was quite a day.
	3:40pm nic: great!!!
	3:40pm YETI BOB: I suppose I could say, we failed to capsize, failed to get run over by that giant barge, etc, etc, etc.
	3:41pm brainiac: @Yeti Bob: I hope you gave the 1 finger salute as you passed T-rump tower.
	3:42pm YETI BOB: @brainiac: I flip off that building every time I see it, but yesterday's route did not take us past that disgrace.
	3:43pm Handy Haversack: Hey, that's awesome, Yeti Bob! Not getting run over by a barge is your first hurdle passed! What was it like going through the locks? Are there lock keepers? Did you bring a marine radio? Was this during that massive tomato-killer storm? I have many questions, Mr. Sparkle!
	3:44pm βrian: Ok new neologism in search of a definition: rendezbooze
	3:44pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. Fine day to fail.
	3:44pm PaulRobeson1920: My Mom says “that sound is annoying to my ears” ... But I Digg it Fabio! More noise!
	3:44pm brainiac: @Yeti Bob: Ah...I see. I left Chicago prior to the construction of that monstrosity. My mental map needs adjusting.
	👻 3:49pm Bas NL: I hate bands with easy to remember band names making fantastic music.
	👻 3:52pm Bas NL: I.e. love this Charlemagne Palestine track...
	3:52pm TDK60: EVen though Charlemagne Palestine rolls off the tongue easily, I do like the music.
	3:53pm YETI BOB: @Braniac: We were on the South Branch, the tower you speak of is on the North. The building itself is fine, IMO. They just need to take off the oversized, gaudy name plate (which I read is actually decreasing the value of the property). One of these days, I'm sure, it will be removed. @HH: This was the day after the storm passed through. Weather was calm, not too hot. Perfect day, really. And it was my friend's birthday, so we stopped for a beer along the riverwalk ... we were the only "boat people" there. It would have been good to have a marine radio, but we didn't. I read up on the rules and restrictions for going through the locks, so I knew we were allowed, as long as we had life vests (which we did). I thought we were doing everything right, but we got yelled at by the harbormaster for not stopping at a red light that we had failed to see ... of course the second after he yelled at us it turned green. The change of water level in the locks is pretty gradual, so it's less exciting than I thought it would be. It was pretty novel though. There are ropes hanging off the sides and they tell you to just grab a rope and hold on - you're holding the rope for like 15-20 minutes as the giant concrete bathtub slowly fills... it's a 4-foot change but it's almost too slow to notice. The exciting part is, when you come out on the lake side, you are all the way out at the end of Navy Pier - not just a little bit in the lake, but fairly far out there - and the water is a lot rougher than the river and it's a sudden change!
	3:53pm βrian: You could read this track title as "A cure for hope."
	3:53pm YETI BOB: @BasNL: Charlemagne Palestine is a person, not a band. Just FYI.
	3:54pm YETI BOB: @BasNL: Check out this awesome picture of him thequietus.com...
	👻 3:56pm Bas NL: Thanks @Yeti Bob!
	3:57pm βrian: Just looking at those locks now. That really is fully in the lake.
	3:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): Reynols! Tomas is the ruler!
	3:58pm YETI BOB: @βrian: Yeah - out past the inner breakwater. Had to paddle almost to Museum Pier to get around the breakwater and into the harbor.
	3:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Chiquito, baby
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: Wow, super cool, Yeti Bob. Jealous! The weather has been brutal here. Heat heat heat but then lightning right when I get free to paddle.
	4:03pm PaulRobeson1920: Humphrey Bogart, eh?
	4:04pm TDK60: I am enjoying the show. I am ready.
	👻 4:04pm Bas NL: Ready!
	4:04pm YETI BOB: It's also been too hot here to do much of anything ... been spending a lot of time inside. Yesterday was the first day that was a bit cooler, the big storm seemed to cool things off.
	4:05pm Miss G: For me, reading about the making of "Beat the Devil" was a bit more fun than the film. . .
	4:06pm nic: love Anla Courtis!!! & i really like Beat the Devil
	👻 4:06pm chresti: Hot here too, haven't ventured outside at all.
	4:09pm PaulRobeson1920: The Tomato plants and Okra are really loving the weather. The Cucumbers are doing well too, nice cool cucumbers on a warm morning, mhmm
	4:12pm PaulRobeson1920: I kid you not, this just reminded me I have a half eaten cucumber in my pocket from this morning! Yes!
	4:13pm YETI BOB: Is that a half-eaten cucumber in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
	4:13pm PaulRobeson1920: Both
	4:14pm βrian: We've done dilly beans this summmer, but not cucumber spears. We've got dill coming out of our ears, but no cukes.
	4:15pm PaulRobeson1920: Wasn't mushy at all either, still crisp
	4:15pm YETI BOB: I have to add cucumbers and okra to the garden lineup next summer - two of my favorites. This summer we have more Japanese eggplant than I know what to do with - they are very good, but we sure have a lot of them.
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1920: Those Eggplants grow fast as soon as you turn around
	4:19pm βrian: I quarantine-envy your cucumbers.
	4:20pm nic: love this!!!
	4:21pm Miss G: In the Quietus article mentioned by YETI BOB re: Charlemagne Palestine, he mentions the Bogart/Bacall film "Dark Passage." It's on free streaming so I pulled it up. Godz, Lauren Bacall is so darling when she first got to Hollywood (and formidable til the end.)
	👻 4:23pm chresti: I heard eggplant has trace amounts of nicotine.
	4:25pm YETI BOB: @chresti: Tomato, eggplant, tobacco are all solanaceae (nightshade). When you handle tomato vine, they really smell like (very nice) tobacco.
	4:25pm βrian: As a child, eggplant used to frighten me. Too similar in appearance to some internal organ.
	4:26pm YETI BOB: potato too
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ....I should like the Charlemagne Parmesan with extra stimulants if it's not too much trouble...
	4:26pm PaulRobeson1920: The heartier the Tomato plant the more powerful the smell
	👻 4:26pm Bas NL: The nicotine is probably against bugs?
	4:27pm TDK60: Yeti, Ah yeah, that smell when you work with tomatoes. I haven't had a chance to garden in several years.
	4:27pm tim from champaign (now washington): Has anyone watched Race With The Devil?
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...not to throw nightshade on any enterprise...
	👻 4:29pm chris: hi, Fabio and folks. wish we were neighbors and we could swap garden treasures. i have more tomatoes than i think we can eat. we've been sharing widely. yes, Bas is correct, nicotine is an insecticide.
	4:30pm PaulRobeson1920: Potatoes are easy to grow. If you have ground soil and a 55 gallon drum or some old car tires to stack, you can grow 50lbs of Potatoes in a relatively small vertical space
	4:30pm YETI BOB: @chris: i wish we could share too. when we have too many tomatoes we make marinara sauce and freeze it. such a treat in february!
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Matter of fact nicotinic pesticides have been messing up endangered bees rather badly.
	👻 4:31pm chris: excellent idea, Yeti Bob! we shall get on that at the end of the season.
	4:31pm sispus: barış manço!
	👻 4:32pm Bas NL: Darn.. I'm a first floor apartment. Just have some greens growing from the balcony tiles. They must be strong... likely not very tasty though. ;(
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: sispus! Rawking a beautiful Pluto ! ...& your other is Mercury ?
	4:33pm PaulRobeson1920: Beet and Turnip greens are really good for a small space. Very simple to grow from seed. 25 days
	👻 4:34pm chris: synthetic neonicotinoids, iirc, RevRab. bad for birds too, of course.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1920: Keee Rey Ah ee suss ... yasss
	4:36pm ami ad: Worked in a tomato field many years ago,the smell,i never buy tomatoes,and still try to avoid them in salads and such.
	4:36pm βrian: Too many tomatoes? That would be impossible for us, because we put up ~120 quarts each year.
	👻 4:37pm Bas NL: It's a great idea, Paul. Anything that will survive 10 square feet.
	👻 4:37pm chris: damn that's excellent and very smart, βrian. i need to step up my game.
	4:37pm PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff @Brian ... I’m wondering have you ever had an early blight?
	4:37pm chocolate monk: Hey Leif!!
	4:39pm βrian: We've stopped growing all but cherry tomatoes due to the blight. (We used to do about 25 plants.) Now we get our canners from a U-pick farm.
	4:40pm brainiac: From The Old Codger chat board: A certain Lolabelle Pancake remarks: Courtney says: "Fablo is DEAD to me." Unfortunately the coroner detected a pulse and returned the rotting cadaver to WFMU.
	4:40pm Woo: I grow celery. It's smaller than store-bought but so much better-it has taste. And you just pick what you need at the time. It grows horizontally so doesn't take much space.
	4:40pm βrian: Pandemic-wise, that really helped with jiffy dinners.
	4:42pm βrian: What does Courtney have growing in his garden?
	4:43pm sispus: @rabbit i suppose, dark side of the moon?
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: sispus - right - the other guess...Cheers.
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1920: Serenade the Old Codger with ‘a little help from my friends
	4:44pm βrian: I swear the Necks must've added a two-stoke engine to their ensemble.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...obverse side : only 'dark' to us...)
	👻 4:48pm Bas NL: Difficult... a syncopating two-stroke?
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lunar hemispheres : astronomy.com...
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: .. rather - the reverse side - 'obverse' meaning the more obvious side...
	4:53pm Miss G: Bas NL, yes, I was wishing a musician friend was sitting here right now. . .
	4:56pm dale: herro dere fabious people.
	👻 4:57pm Bas NL: Musician make it run so well oiled. And then give it a name... Nice Moon pics RRN63!
	4:57pm spodiodi: greetings, dailure
	4:57pm dale: i see i was missing a show of artists i probably couldn't pronounce. the failure of the american education system...
	4:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): This Necks is killer.
	4:58pm TDK60: Interesting what the drummer may be using for that fast beat. Cymbals and maraca?
	4:58pm βrian: Courtney would knowingly say that it sounds like a Model A engine.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...twanging strings above nut & whammy barring (bending neck?) : must clickystar in solidarity...
	👻 5:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ka BLOOM
	👻 5:00pm Bas NL: It's got that flapping piece of cardboard in a bicycle wheel feel.
	👻 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: That was the entire Necks track or just the intro?
	5:01pm PaulRobeson1920: Nice bicycle riding music there
	5:01pm common: what the hell is going on here?!? hello Fabio and all!
	5:01pm TDK60: Bas, yeh, that's interesting too.
	5:02pm brainiac: Fabio's picking up UVB-76 unless he keeps his foot on his whosis.
	5:03pm TDK60: Fabio, you're standing like the Jethro Tull fellow to keep the show going?
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They collaborated on gittar abuse with Pete Townshend on a Terry Riley piece for Who's Necks...
	5:04pm dale: it's not the same on tv because your floors aren't sticky enough fabio.
	5:04pm Handy Haversack: winston, if you're still here, Kate and I are dedicating this Little Italy to you!
	5:04pm PaulRobeson1920: Music, music, music! About 180 days till the Movies and Broadway re-open In NYC ... The Glisteners can take it! One day at a time
	5:06pm tim from champaign (now washington): I think Fabio smoked a left handed cigarette during The Necks song and is going full on jazz here.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...being a total lift ...they received a Cecil & desist order from Felonious Monk...
	5:07pm dale: it's a jazz cigarette.
	5:08pm Miss G: Gosh this Chris McGregor piece has a fascinating story.
	5:09pm ami ad: I'll have whatever RevRabbiN63 is having.
	5:10pm Fabios Pennsylvania Lawyer: Don't worry about all the post-game pundits Fabio. I'm near Philadelphia and I got your back.
	5:10pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fill us in, Miss G.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...because CrimeJazz doesn't pay ...Ornette a gross profit...
	5:11pm PaulRobeson1920: Jazz Criminals
	👻 5:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: YASSSSSS, that bassline.
	5:11pm PaulRobeson1920: The lot of em!
	5:11pm Handy Haversack: Jazz police are talking. To my sister.
	5:12pm Devin B.: I yasss what th'Rev yasssed.
	👻 5:12pm Bas NL: Cymbals 'n rims..
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: eternally pre-clickie'd for that GOD DAMNED bass.
	👻 5:13pm chris: all the pre-clicky starred yassssness
	5:14pm brainiac: Got a message over the phone; "Dick Laurent is dead."
	5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...It is on these ethics Mother Mary has Bassed her Assumption...
	5:17pm Miss G: Oh, Tim, I just did Gurgle for the band name. That was from 1969. This is the link: https://www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/mcgregor-septet-the-chris-up-to-earth-cd/FLED.3069CD.html
	5:22pm tim from champaign (now washington): MOONDOG!
	5:22pm tim from champaign (now washington): THanks, Miss G!
	5:23pm ?: I thought I was an astute jazz. How did I manage to miss Chris McGregor and Min Bul? (Although I have heard Brotherhood of Breath and Terje Rypdal.)
	5:24pm tim from champaign (now washington): Did anyone read the Moondog articles in Maggot Brain magazine? Pretty fun reads especially the recently transcribed tapes of Moondog and Tony Schwarz conversations.
	5:25pm WM: That's me. Thanks Fabio for expanding my listening horizon.
	5:26pm PaulRobeson1920: Whoo wee @WM I second that
	5:28pm Itzall Hear: Hi Fabio and everyone. Thank you for an(other) amazingly great program!
	5:33pm Miss G: BTW brainiac, I chucked over your Lost Highway ref.
	5:33pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio - it's actually pronounced 'cham-pag-nee'
	5:34pm brainiac: Thanks, Miss G. シ
	5:34pm dale: zima here. of colt malt liquor. 'get yer jimmy thicker with colt malt liquor'
	👻 5:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Where would we be without a thick jimmy. what?
	5:35pm WM: "I thought I was an astute jazz aficionado." (I don't like typos.)
	5:37pm Miss G: WM, I prefer to think of you as "an astute jazz." ;-) (wow, this Klangetc, will get my neighbors going. . .)
	5:37pm PaulRobeson1920: I’m waiting for the Old Codger, like a bee waits for a flower! I’m going to turn him onto The Fugs! This is NYC, babyy
	5:38pm Itzall Hear: Gotta' remind myself to find that The Necks album.
	👻 5:38pm Bas NL: Fabio's dishing out the special stash today.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'ma clicky theez epeesode that set was the muthaload it got rich in fonk my pretensions got sunk now I experiencing thuh reentry skronk
	5:39pm WM: Klangmutationen - another discovery!
	5:40pm Miss G: Itzall Hear I bought it on iTunes just now. I couldn't wait. . .(embarrassed.) I found an article about it at the Washington Post and an idiot commented that the song sounded like "the aural equivalent of 'Infinite Jest.'" What a loss, to be so "dumb in the ears."
	5:41pm Miss G: RR63 you are really rolling today. "thuh reentry skronk" I don't want to reenter!
	5:43pm nic: love this!!!
	5:43pm brainiac: I liked Infinite Jest.
	5:44pm Miss G: OH NO The Necks: Three is on Bandcamp and I paid those monsters at Apple rather than the band! I'll have to buy something else by them. . .
	5:47pm Miss G: brainiac, for me, DFW is not my style unless in prose form. But in related news, I'm about to pull down my tattered paperback of "The Crying of Lot 49" in support of the Postal Service.
	5:48pm brainiac: Funnily enough, it was DFW that got me into Pynchon.
	5:49pm ultradamno: That Gavanti record is genius.
	5:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): I'm not so into DFW too. I'm reluctant to say that because I've found I bum people out with that thought. Kinda like telling your normal co-workers that Forrest Gump is a terrible movie.
	5:51pm βrian: DFW? Dallas/Fort Worth, or what?
	5:52pm βrian: Oh, author guy. Never mind.
	5:52pm brainiac: It's all very meta.
	5:52pm PaulRobeson1920: Ho ho ho
	5:54pm Miss G: Sorry βrian, I thought you were joking. I was trying to think of an author with the initials EWR.
	5:54pm WM: @Miss G: If you've read Crying of Lot 49 you must know about Maxwell's Demon, yes?
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. If you're listening, Clay Pigeon, I hope your sour tooth gets better soon.
	👻 5:55pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:55pm Miss G: WM "knowing about" something can be rather different than Knowing it, I've found in my life!
	5:56pm PaulRobeson1920: And i hope the tooth fairy leaves atleast a dollar!
	👻 5:56pm Bas NL: Thanks for the recharge Fabio! It's been a great listening to!
	5:56pm tim from champaign (now washington): Nice send off. Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm βrian: Shirley, you jest.
	5:56pm Miss G: What time is it?! Fabio, this set was LEGENDARY, thank you!!!
	5:57pm ami ad: Thank you DJ,Crew. keep em coming.
	5:57pm WM: Could it be that Trump has such an animus against the US Postal Service because he has read Crying of Lot 49? Of course, not - Trump can't read.
	5:57pm mariano: Thanks Fabio, Crew - bye all!
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the show, Fabio.
	5:58pm Ike: Thanks Fabio, great show!
	5:58pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Fabio! Thanks, Skeletons!
	5:58pm brainiac: Layter, everyone.
	5:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Yes! Good stuff today, thank you and the Skeltons!
	5:58pm Stanley: Great show Fab. Thanks.
	5:58pm WM: @Miss. G: Agreed!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A Skin Too Few
	👻 5:59pm chris: thanks, Fabio!
	6:00pm steveo: good to hear ya, thanks
	👻 6:00pm Bas NL: Thanks Matt!
	6:01pm mariano: Matt, Crew, woohoo!

	3:06pm PaulRobeson1920: Howdy Ya’ll!
	3:06pm spodiodi: lol brainiac

	3:07pm winston legthigh: hallo fabio! handy-attempt #1 at obtaining cynar was a strong failure. i gotta go to town for the good stuff.
	3:08pm βrian: Ah, there we go. Good afternoon.

	3:08pm gilmour: Off to stand on line at the co-op. Catch ya later.
	👻 3:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Loving that photo more than I can possibly express.
	👻 3:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello.
	3:09pm Handy Haversack: D'oh, winston! Well, failure is our metier. Have you ever had an "Eastern" 2 parts rye, 1 part sweet verm, 1 part triple sec, a bit less than 1 part lime juice. Shake w/ ice, up. I leave it to you to determine how many pints there are to the part.
	3:10pm chocolate monk: hola doodoos
	3:11pm brainiac: @Handy: That'll put hair on whatever ya got.
	👻 3:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'd surely sign up immediately if they offered me carrot cake therapy. Worry about side effects later.
	3:15pm mariano: Hey Fabio, Crew, everyone.
	3:16pm brainiac: @wfmu listener phillip: I am now, thanks. youtu.be...
	3:16pm Handy Haversack: Perhaps not having a competent and duly licensed carrot-cake-alyst is what doomed the pictured institution, Ken. Hey, Mariano!
	3:18pm βrian: Would it put Heron Oblivion?
	3:18pm Joe Beuys: Fabio, please announce that cinephobe.tv is back on the air! Tonight at 6:30: Rare Fassbinder. Friday at 2 PM: two North Korean films! Thanks so much for alerting us to this free streaming treasure.
	👻 3:19pm Bas NL: Hey Fabio! Hey failure lovers!
	3:19pm Handy Haversack: Another winner, βrian!
	3:22pm mb: Hey Fabio and failures alike...
	3:24pm Chris from DC: Loving this Brume.
	👻 3:25pm chresti: Nice playlist picture, Fabio.
	3:26pm nic: love Brume!!!
	3:27pm nic: and Kollektief too!!!
	3:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...both a hairy & a well-lived in oblivion ...not a bit scary therapy - just ask Roky Erickson thru the thorazine voltage stayed inside put a mask on heard reports judged retorts ...fine companions this resort for the criminally insane I present this refrain & this cot of fine canvas for my unravelling brain...
	3:30pm Hubig Pie: U be a clever rabbit
	3:31pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio!
	3:32pm PaulRobeson1920: Sure is
	👻 3:33pm Bas NL: Wel-eer. Of times passed.
	3:34pm mariano: Hey Handy. Great to hear Creek & Kills on efd yesterday!
	3:34pm TDK60: I do plan to enjoy the show; we'll see...
	👻 3:35pm chresti: I will enjoy the show no matter what.
	3:36pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, yeah! It was a thrill. We just about fell over! Hi, chresti!
	3:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Count it up as a miracle that all the “NightSoil Men” of NYC are unemployed seemingly forever now
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Hi Handy!
	3:37pm Chris from DC: Yay, Marta!
	3:37pm VincentNifigance: An amateur (/ ˈ æ m ə tj ər-tj ʊər /; French: ; lit. 'lover [of something]')
	3:39pm YETI BOB: Hey Handy - completely unrelated to this show (or anything really) - Just wanted to tell you that a buddy and I took the two-man kayak up the Chicago River yesterday, starting at Ping Tom Park in Chinatown, up through downtown, through the harbor locks, and out into Lake Michigan, where we rendevoused with some friends on a sailboat. It was quite a day.
	3:40pm nic: great!!!
	3:40pm YETI BOB: I suppose I could say, we failed to capsize, failed to get run over by that giant barge, etc, etc, etc.
	3:41pm brainiac: @Yeti Bob: I hope you gave the 1 finger salute as you passed T-rump tower.
	3:42pm YETI BOB: @brainiac: I flip off that building every time I see it, but yesterday's route did not take us past that disgrace.
	3:43pm Handy Haversack: Hey, that's awesome, Yeti Bob! Not getting run over by a barge is your first hurdle passed! What was it like going through the locks? Are there lock keepers? Did you bring a marine radio? Was this during that massive tomato-killer storm? I have many questions, Mr. Sparkle!
	3:44pm βrian: Ok new neologism in search of a definition: rendezbooze
	3:44pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. Fine day to fail.
	3:44pm PaulRobeson1920: My Mom says “that sound is annoying to my ears” ... But I Digg it Fabio! More noise!
	3:44pm brainiac: @Yeti Bob: Ah...I see. I left Chicago prior to the construction of that monstrosity. My mental map needs adjusting.
	👻 3:49pm Bas NL: I hate bands with easy to remember band names making fantastic music.
	👻 3:52pm Bas NL: I.e. love this Charlemagne Palestine track...
	3:52pm TDK60: EVen though Charlemagne Palestine rolls off the tongue easily, I do like the music.
	3:53pm YETI BOB: @Braniac: We were on the South Branch, the tower you speak of is on the North. The building itself is fine, IMO. They just need to take off the oversized, gaudy name plate (which I read is actually decreasing the value of the property). One of these days, I'm sure, it will be removed. @HH: This was the day after the storm passed through. Weather was calm, not too hot. Perfect day, really. And it was my friend's birthday, so we stopped for a beer along the riverwalk ... we were the only "boat people" there. It would have been good to have a marine radio, but we didn't. I read up on the rules and restrictions for going through the locks, so I knew we were allowed, as long as we had life vests (which we did). I thought we were doing everything right, but we got yelled at by the harbormaster for not stopping at a red light that we had failed to see ... of course the second after he yelled at us it turned green. The change of water level in the locks is pretty gradual, so it's less exciting than I thought it would be. It was pretty novel though. There are ropes hanging off the sides and they tell you to just grab a rope and hold on - you're holding the rope for like 15-20 minutes as the giant concrete bathtub slowly fills... it's a 4-foot change but it's almost too slow to notice. The exciting part is, when you come out on the lake side, you are all the way out at the end of Navy Pier - not just a little bit in the lake, but fairly far out there - and the water is a lot rougher than the river and it's a sudden change!
	3:53pm βrian: You could read this track title as "A cure for hope."
	3:53pm YETI BOB: @BasNL: Charlemagne Palestine is a person, not a band. Just FYI.
	3:54pm YETI BOB: @BasNL: Check out this awesome picture of him thequietus.com...
	👻 3:56pm Bas NL: Thanks @Yeti Bob!
	3:57pm βrian: Just looking at those locks now. That really is fully in the lake.
	3:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): Reynols! Tomas is the ruler!
	3:58pm YETI BOB: @βrian: Yeah - out past the inner breakwater. Had to paddle almost to Museum Pier to get around the breakwater and into the harbor.
	3:58pm PaulRobeson1920: Chiquito, baby
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: Wow, super cool, Yeti Bob. Jealous! The weather has been brutal here. Heat heat heat but then lightning right when I get free to paddle.
	4:03pm PaulRobeson1920: Humphrey Bogart, eh?
	4:04pm TDK60: I am enjoying the show. I am ready.
	👻 4:04pm Bas NL: Ready!
	4:04pm YETI BOB: It's also been too hot here to do much of anything ... been spending a lot of time inside. Yesterday was the first day that was a bit cooler, the big storm seemed to cool things off.
	4:05pm Miss G: For me, reading about the making of "Beat the Devil" was a bit more fun than the film. . .
	4:06pm nic: love Anla Courtis!!! & i really like Beat the Devil
	👻 4:06pm chresti: Hot here too, haven't ventured outside at all.
	4:09pm PaulRobeson1920: The Tomato plants and Okra are really loving the weather. The Cucumbers are doing well too, nice cool cucumbers on a warm morning, mhmm
	4:12pm PaulRobeson1920: I kid you not, this just reminded me I have a half eaten cucumber in my pocket from this morning! Yes!
	4:13pm YETI BOB: Is that a half-eaten cucumber in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
	4:13pm PaulRobeson1920: Both
	4:14pm βrian: We've done dilly beans this summmer, but not cucumber spears. We've got dill coming out of our ears, but no cukes.
	4:15pm PaulRobeson1920: Wasn't mushy at all either, still crisp
	4:15pm YETI BOB: I have to add cucumbers and okra to the garden lineup next summer - two of my favorites. This summer we have more Japanese eggplant than I know what to do with - they are very good, but we sure have a lot of them.
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1920: Those Eggplants grow fast as soon as you turn around
	4:19pm βrian: I quarantine-envy your cucumbers.
	4:20pm nic: love this!!!
	4:21pm Miss G: In the Quietus article mentioned by YETI BOB re: Charlemagne Palestine, he mentions the Bogart/Bacall film "Dark Passage." It's on free streaming so I pulled it up. Godz, Lauren Bacall is so darling when she first got to Hollywood (and formidable til the end.)
	👻 4:23pm chresti: I heard eggplant has trace amounts of nicotine.
	4:25pm YETI BOB: @chresti: Tomato, eggplant, tobacco are all solanaceae (nightshade). When you handle tomato vine, they really smell like (very nice) tobacco.
	4:25pm βrian: As a child, eggplant used to frighten me. Too similar in appearance to some internal organ.
	4:26pm YETI BOB: potato too
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ....I should like the Charlemagne Parmesan with extra stimulants if it's not too much trouble...
	4:26pm PaulRobeson1920: The heartier the Tomato plant the more powerful the smell
	👻 4:26pm Bas NL: The nicotine is probably against bugs?
	4:27pm TDK60: Yeti, Ah yeah, that smell when you work with tomatoes. I haven't had a chance to garden in several years.
	4:27pm tim from champaign (now washington): Has anyone watched Race With The Devil?
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...not to throw nightshade on any enterprise...
	👻 4:29pm chris: hi, Fabio and folks. wish we were neighbors and we could swap garden treasures. i have more tomatoes than i think we can eat. we've been sharing widely. yes, Bas is correct, nicotine is an insecticide.
	4:30pm PaulRobeson1920: Potatoes are easy to grow. If you have ground soil and a 55 gallon drum or some old car tires to stack, you can grow 50lbs of Potatoes in a relatively small vertical space
	4:30pm YETI BOB: @chris: i wish we could share too. when we have too many tomatoes we make marinara sauce and freeze it. such a treat in february!
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Matter of fact nicotinic pesticides have been messing up endangered bees rather badly.
	👻 4:31pm chris: excellent idea, Yeti Bob! we shall get on that at the end of the season.
	4:31pm sispus: barış manço!
	👻 4:32pm Bas NL: Darn.. I'm a first floor apartment. Just have some greens growing from the balcony tiles. They must be strong... likely not very tasty though. ;(
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: sispus! Rawking a beautiful Pluto ! ...& your other is Mercury ?
	4:33pm PaulRobeson1920: Beet and Turnip greens are really good for a small space. Very simple to grow from seed. 25 days
	👻 4:34pm chris: synthetic neonicotinoids, iirc, RevRab. bad for birds too, of course.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1920: Keee Rey Ah ee suss ... yasss
	4:36pm ami ad: Worked in a tomato field many years ago,the smell,i never buy tomatoes,and still try to avoid them in salads and such.
	4:36pm βrian: Too many tomatoes? That would be impossible for us, because we put up ~120 quarts each year.
	👻 4:37pm Bas NL: It's a great idea, Paul. Anything that will survive 10 square feet.
	👻 4:37pm chris: damn that's excellent and very smart, βrian. i need to step up my game.
	4:37pm PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff @Brian ... I’m wondering have you ever had an early blight?
	4:37pm chocolate monk: Hey Leif!!
	4:39pm βrian: We've stopped growing all but cherry tomatoes due to the blight. (We used to do about 25 plants.) Now we get our canners from a U-pick farm.
	4:40pm brainiac: From The Old Codger chat board: A certain Lolabelle Pancake remarks: Courtney says: "Fablo is DEAD to me." Unfortunately the coroner detected a pulse and returned the rotting cadaver to WFMU.
	4:40pm Woo: I grow celery. It's smaller than store-bought but so much better-it has taste. And you just pick what you need at the time. It grows horizontally so doesn't take much space.
	4:40pm βrian: Pandemic-wise, that really helped with jiffy dinners.
	4:42pm βrian: What does Courtney have growing in his garden?
	4:43pm sispus: @rabbit i suppose, dark side of the moon?
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: sispus - right - the other guess...Cheers.
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1920: Serenade the Old Codger with ‘a little help from my friends
	4:44pm βrian: I swear the Necks must've added a two-stoke engine to their ensemble.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...obverse side : only 'dark' to us...)
	👻 4:48pm Bas NL: Difficult... a syncopating two-stroke?
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lunar hemispheres : astronomy.com...
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: .. rather - the reverse side - 'obverse' meaning the more obvious side...
	4:53pm Miss G: Bas NL, yes, I was wishing a musician friend was sitting here right now. . .
	4:56pm dale: herro dere fabious people.
	👻 4:57pm Bas NL: Musician make it run so well oiled. And then give it a name... Nice Moon pics RRN63!
	4:57pm spodiodi: greetings, dailure
	4:57pm dale: i see i was missing a show of artists i probably couldn't pronounce. the failure of the american education system...
	4:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): This Necks is killer.
	4:58pm TDK60: Interesting what the drummer may be using for that fast beat. Cymbals and maraca?
	4:58pm βrian: Courtney would knowingly say that it sounds like a Model A engine.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...twanging strings above nut & whammy barring (bending neck?) : must clickystar in solidarity...
	👻 5:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ka BLOOM
	👻 5:00pm Bas NL: It's got that flapping piece of cardboard in a bicycle wheel feel.
	👻 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: That was the entire Necks track or just the intro?
	5:01pm PaulRobeson1920: Nice bicycle riding music there
	5:01pm common: what the hell is going on here?!? hello Fabio and all!
	5:01pm TDK60: Bas, yeh, that's interesting too.
	5:02pm brainiac: Fabio's picking up UVB-76 unless he keeps his foot on his whosis.
	5:03pm TDK60: Fabio, you're standing like the Jethro Tull fellow to keep the show going?
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They collaborated on gittar abuse with Pete Townshend on a Terry Riley piece for Who's Necks...
	5:04pm dale: it's not the same on tv because your floors aren't sticky enough fabio.
	5:04pm Handy Haversack: winston, if you're still here, Kate and I are dedicating this Little Italy to you!
	5:04pm PaulRobeson1920: Music, music, music! About 180 days till the Movies and Broadway re-open In NYC ... The Glisteners can take it! One day at a time
	5:06pm tim from champaign (now washington): I think Fabio smoked a left handed cigarette during The Necks song and is going full on jazz here.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...being a total lift ...they received a Cecil & desist order from Felonious Monk...
	5:07pm dale: it's a jazz cigarette.
	5:08pm Miss G: Gosh this Chris McGregor piece has a fascinating story.
	5:09pm ami ad: I'll have whatever RevRabbiN63 is having.
	5:10pm Fabios Pennsylvania Lawyer: Don't worry about all the post-game pundits Fabio. I'm near Philadelphia and I got your back.
	5:10pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fill us in, Miss G.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...because CrimeJazz doesn't pay ...Ornette a gross profit...
	5:11pm PaulRobeson1920: Jazz Criminals
	👻 5:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: YASSSSSS, that bassline.
	5:11pm PaulRobeson1920: The lot of em!
	5:11pm Handy Haversack: Jazz police are talking. To my sister.
	5:12pm Devin B.: I yasss what th'Rev yasssed.
	👻 5:12pm Bas NL: Cymbals 'n rims..
	👻 5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: eternally pre-clickie'd for that GOD DAMNED bass.
	👻 5:13pm chris: all the pre-clicky starred yassssness
	5:14pm brainiac: Got a message over the phone; "Dick Laurent is dead."
	5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...It is on these ethics Mother Mary has Bassed her Assumption...
	5:17pm Miss G: Oh, Tim, I just did Gurgle for the band name. That was from 1969. This is the link: https://www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/mcgregor-septet-the-chris-up-to-earth-cd/FLED.3069CD.html
	5:22pm tim from champaign (now washington): MOONDOG!
	5:22pm tim from champaign (now washington): THanks, Miss G!
	5:23pm ?: I thought I was an astute jazz. How did I manage to miss Chris McGregor and Min Bul? (Although I have heard Brotherhood of Breath and Terje Rypdal.)
	5:24pm tim from champaign (now washington): Did anyone read the Moondog articles in Maggot Brain magazine? Pretty fun reads especially the recently transcribed tapes of Moondog and Tony Schwarz conversations.
	5:25pm WM: That's me. Thanks Fabio for expanding my listening horizon.
	5:26pm PaulRobeson1920: Whoo wee @WM I second that
	5:28pm Itzall Hear: Hi Fabio and everyone. Thank you for an(other) amazingly great program!
	5:33pm Miss G: BTW brainiac, I chucked over your Lost Highway ref.
	5:33pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio - it's actually pronounced 'cham-pag-nee'
	5:34pm brainiac: Thanks, Miss G. シ
	5:34pm dale: zima here. of colt malt liquor. 'get yer jimmy thicker with colt malt liquor'
	👻 5:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Where would we be without a thick jimmy. what?
	5:35pm WM: "I thought I was an astute jazz aficionado." (I don't like typos.)
	5:37pm Miss G: WM, I prefer to think of you as "an astute jazz." ;-) (wow, this Klangetc, will get my neighbors going. . .)
	5:37pm PaulRobeson1920: I’m waiting for the Old Codger, like a bee waits for a flower! I’m going to turn him onto The Fugs! This is NYC, babyy
	5:38pm Itzall Hear: Gotta' remind myself to find that The Necks album.
	👻 5:38pm Bas NL: Fabio's dishing out the special stash today.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'ma clicky theez epeesode that set was the muthaload it got rich in fonk my pretensions got sunk now I experiencing thuh reentry skronk
	5:39pm WM: Klangmutationen - another discovery!
	5:40pm Miss G: Itzall Hear I bought it on iTunes just now. I couldn't wait. . .(embarrassed.) I found an article about it at the Washington Post and an idiot commented that the song sounded like "the aural equivalent of 'Infinite Jest.'" What a loss, to be so "dumb in the ears."
	5:41pm Miss G: RR63 you are really rolling today. "thuh reentry skronk" I don't want to reenter!
	5:43pm nic: love this!!!
	5:43pm brainiac: I liked Infinite Jest.
	5:44pm Miss G: OH NO The Necks: Three is on Bandcamp and I paid those monsters at Apple rather than the band! I'll have to buy something else by them. . .
	5:47pm Miss G: brainiac, for me, DFW is not my style unless in prose form. But in related news, I'm about to pull down my tattered paperback of "The Crying of Lot 49" in support of the Postal Service.
	5:48pm brainiac: Funnily enough, it was DFW that got me into Pynchon.
	5:49pm ultradamno: That Gavanti record is genius.
	5:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): I'm not so into DFW too. I'm reluctant to say that because I've found I bum people out with that thought. Kinda like telling your normal co-workers that Forrest Gump is a terrible movie.
	5:51pm βrian: DFW? Dallas/Fort Worth, or what?
	5:52pm βrian: Oh, author guy. Never mind.
	5:52pm brainiac: It's all very meta.
	5:52pm PaulRobeson1920: Ho ho ho
	5:54pm Miss G: Sorry βrian, I thought you were joking. I was trying to think of an author with the initials EWR.
	5:54pm WM: @Miss G: If you've read Crying of Lot 49 you must know about Maxwell's Demon, yes?
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. If you're listening, Clay Pigeon, I hope your sour tooth gets better soon.
	👻 5:55pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:55pm Miss G: WM "knowing about" something can be rather different than Knowing it, I've found in my life!
	5:56pm PaulRobeson1920: And i hope the tooth fairy leaves atleast a dollar!
	👻 5:56pm Bas NL: Thanks for the recharge Fabio! It's been a great listening to!
	5:56pm tim from champaign (now washington): Nice send off. Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm βrian: Shirley, you jest.
	5:56pm Miss G: What time is it?! Fabio, this set was LEGENDARY, thank you!!!
	5:57pm ami ad: Thank you DJ,Crew. keep em coming.
	5:57pm WM: Could it be that Trump has such an animus against the US Postal Service because he has read Crying of Lot 49? Of course, not - Trump can't read.
	5:57pm mariano: Thanks Fabio, Crew - bye all!
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the show, Fabio.
	5:58pm Ike: Thanks Fabio, great show!
	5:58pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Fabio! Thanks, Skeletons!
	5:58pm brainiac: Layter, everyone.
