	3:14pm djsheilab: Oooh I don't know that version, @joe mulligan.
	3:14pm DjLorraine: Djsheilab did you ever get the name of that high pitched flute whistle instrument? I can picture it, i think with a pull ring??

	3:20pm northguineahills: @Jett: I don't hear most English lyrics, and yet, I understood every word of that song....
	3:21pm djsheilab: northguineahills—I discovered Lhasa long after her untimely death. It must've been brutal for those who knew + loved her.
	3:21pm Rob Kopp: 2 days ago "60 Dutch Nuggets" was placed on tommentonenlacuadra.blogspot.com
	3:22pm Vanessa: hello
	3:25pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa!
	3:26pm northguineahills: @sheilab: I only discovered her discogs after her obit in The Wire in 2010. que pinche!
	3:26pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomers.
	3:27pm WM: Is Cloe from 5 to 7 another one of your favorite movies along with Bitter Moon and Le Samouraï?
	3:27pm northguineahills: If there aren't weird sounds, then it isn't WFMU....
	3:27pm P-90: Suzy has some cute lyrics
	3:28pm Krull Sagan: (Handy @3:14- thanks, and to you as well! I am getting all jealous of this rain talk because it has been like 209 days of unrelenting sun here)
	3:30pm DjLorraine: Hi there Cooh John and music connoisseurs
	3:30pm ncjay: @Rob Kopp: fetching it now. thank you!
	3:31pm Scrappy: On the bright side, 5 à 7 means happy hour in Quebec.
	3:32pm northguineahills: Hitting the dry season here in FL. So, no more rain (blessing and a curse)
	3:32pm Rob Kopp: @ncjay. Promise you won't listen until after SBB
	3:32pm Jason from Houston: Stood in the rain a bit this morning to vote. Felt great. ꒰⌯•̩̩̩́ ˑ̫ •̩̩̩̀⌯꒱
	3:32pm DjLorraine: I had a wonderful Chinese Crested dog named Banksy
	3:33pm Handy Haversack: Then I wish I was in Quebec right now. Je me souviens! Seriously, why am I still working and completely Quarantini-less? Something's gotta give!

	3:35pm Yami: Love your humanity!
	3:36pm Michael 98145: yes
	3:36pm power_crystals: I dig how wholesome this chat thingie is, it's like the opposite of twitter
	3:37pm djsheilab: Hehe...thanks Yami!
	3:37pm northguineahills: @Handy: la rue sainte-catherine me manque....
	3:38pm Michael 98145: twitter sans twits
	3:38pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila. And I like it that you don't get mad at me for (mis)using your playlist, but it doesn't happen that much that they ask me to make a compilation of Dutch artists
	3:38pm Krull Sagan: Oh for a Québécois cocktail hour, super-chouette!...sigh....
	3:39pm Handy Haversack: Je comprends, ngh.
	3:40pm annette: Djsheilaaaah. you r making this rainy day very smooth. gonna pop the bubbly soon. remember the day you got your citizenship
	3:40pm Rick G: Cheerful Friday Sheila and listeners, from the woods above Hood Canal WA. Happy to be here.
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey Carmichael, WM, Scrappy, Jason from Houston, schmutz, annette + Rick G!
	3:42pm Cooh John: Hi, Sis. Catching the comments between relays. I believe the music is healing my body. Maybe more so with headphones.
	3:42pm djsheilab: This Julia Holter re-release so perfectly captures the feeling of today.
	3:43pm Scrappy: @Handy @Krull Ben, il est 17h quelque part!
	3:43pm djsheilab: Hey Cooh John!
	3:44pm Michael 98145: c'est vrai
	3:44pm Christopher: Hey Sheila. Getting fully awake from nap. Thankfully caught your Massive Attack story. I can’t compete with that but I saw them on The Mezzanine tour. They literally made me sick with the low end frequencies and volume. Saw them just last year and could not believe they were even louder! In league with Slayer! Hopefully don’t have to wait another 20 years to see them again!
	3:45pm Jett: Yes it is so true that you, @djsheilab have a way of brightening up even the most miserable cloudy, snitzy, rainy days. We're all very blessed to be exposed to your great talent of selecting the best in music. Thank you.
	3:46pm power_crystals: dare i say SBB is the highlight of working from home on fridays? i think so
	3:47pm djsheilab: Christopher—Massive Attack + Slayer—now that'd be an excellent double bill! I kinda wish there were more unexpected bills in the world.
	3:48pm djsheilab: power_crystals—I'm so happy to hear it!
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks for your lovely words, Jett!
	3:48pm Handy Haversack: @ (à) Scrappy, içi maintenant!
	3:50pm Michael 98145: ooh, loverly
	3:50pm Passaic River Blues: @Michael: same thoughts over this-a-way.
	3:50pm phat: Wow, this Cleo Sol
	3:54pm Vanessa: @power_crystals and @djsheilab - i second that!
	3:55pm northguineahills: Elis Regina, already pre-faved!
	3:55pm Yes: This is very nice
	3:55pm Yes: ^elis
	3:56pm June: Oh my goodness so glad I can actually tune in even if it’s 30 minutes! This selection is so on point. Sending love to you Sheila!
	3:56pm Cooh John: Hey back at ya, djsheilab. Can't wait for the interview. Sounds like a 1-2 punch coupled with last week's interview. My sister, DjLorraine, has joined the ranks of the boom boom crowd.
	3:56pm listener james from westwood: Thought this might've been one of the various Betties Boop!
	3:58pm DjLorraine: P-90 the sound was short like in saying “whip“.
	4:00pm Andrew_in_WI: @djsheilab If you get a chance this weekend check out Joe Belock's show that just ended. Really think you'd like it.
	4:00pm northguineahills: The first modern push for vegetarianism was in the 1880a in Europe.... (the later spread to NA....
	4:01pm northguineahills: 1880s....
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: Scrappy, Krull: Satan's Whiskerses mixed a served. A votre santé!
	4:02pm Scrappy: @Handy Je préfére à crois que le 5 à 7 est un état d'esprit...c'est lá que je vis ces temps-ci. Le sign
	4:02pm eric from lake hiawatha: Blessed are we to learn your approach to your art.
	4:02pm P-90: “Button Up” lyrics by songsmiths B G DeSylva and Lee Brown. A classic of its ilk.
	4:02pm Russt44: DeSylva and Brown lyrics for Overcoat
	4:03pm Handy Haversack: * ^and served. Le sigh.
	4:04pm Scrappy: About time for a raki and water. À la vôtre aussi! (Whew, most French I've used in a while)
	4:07pm Ike: Cool sounds!
	4:07pm Heidee: This is so beautiful. Hi all!
	4:09pm Reinaldo: I can sing that lol okay let me sleep now toooo relax hmmmmahuuummm
	4:11pm lex: Mashallah
	4:11pm P-90: WFMU: The HOME of the convoluted
	4:17pm P-90: Perhaps the most ancient philosophical question: “Who’s driving the bus?”
	4:18pm Krull Sagan: Handy, what in the hell is the recipéee for that?! I must know Satan’s Whiskerses
	4:18pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	4:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Phillippe! Krull: equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, OJ; half part triple sec; a couple of dashes of orange bitters. Shake with ice, serve up. Twirl and preen at your discretion.
	4:26pm Krull Sagan: Love Bisan’s perspective; jiving with my recent dive into Alan Watts....and centuries of wisdom from all over
	4:28pm Krull Sagan: Make mine a double, Handy; I’ve got the twirling and preening down but the sauerkraut juice & jar of old wine in my fridge aren’t gonna cut it
	4:30pm DL in LA: The journey is the reward, as they say. Thanks for this interview.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: It's a place to start, Krull!
	4:37pm Scrappy: Krull: it might not be the ingredients for Satan's Whiskers, but...it's something? www.craftbeering.com...
	4:39pm Rita P: thank you so much for this conversation!! So special to hear it on the new moon in libra
	4:39pm Handy Haversack: Huh. One to one! Well, I mean, I have vodka and sauerkraut ...
	4:40pm Scrappy: I wonder if the sauerkraut juice helps offset hangovers
	4:41pm DjLorraine: Sacred truth, thank you Bisan Toron
	4:42pm Miss G: I couldn't give this the attention it deserves and so will listen again, but it is so amazing! Thank you Sheila and Bisan. <3
	4:45pm djsheilab: Here is the link for the documentary "Searching For Kikhia: www.mansurkikhia.org
	4:46pm The Librarian: I missed the name of the movie. Help me!
	4:46pm djsheilab: And a link to Bisan's site: www.bisantoron.com
	4:48pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but great show! I caught Lovers Rock at NYFF as well, and this in particular is one of the best scenes I've seen all year. It'll be on Prime next month!
	4:48pm Duane: Great tune! Big ups to Dennis Bovell! One of the great producers of the era
	4:48pm djsheilab: Duane—That record is PERFECTION. I would like to live in it forever!
	4:49pm Bill: A remarkable interview, a remarkable woman. So well done. Enlightening.
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thanks Bill! And to all of you leaving such kind praise for Bisan! Xoxo
	4:51pm DjLorraine: I love documentaries. The tears made my voice change when i told my honey about it.
	4:52pm Krull Sagan: Scrappy, Haversacky, I think we're on to something; and I absolutely drink pickle juice with the garlic chunks on those, er, dicey mornings
	4:52pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Great interview Sheila
	4:52pm Rob Kopp: Yeah, a P.F. Sloan song.
	4:53pm Rob Kopp: Phil was such a nice guy.
	4:59pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hola Sheilab, enjoyed your interview with Bisan.
	4:59pm Scrappy: Krull: Yeah, I'm with you on the pickle juice with garlic chunks. Even if there's a placebo bump, the thought of downing some briny garlic chunks makes my brain and stomach feel like they're regenerating. Feels like a home remedy that's got legs.
	5:00pm Krull Sagan: Scrap, I think that's how old witchy remedies come about! I'm on board
	5:00pm Rob Kopp: Sloan's most famous song must be Eve of destruction. The same backing that was used on the hit by Barry McGuire was also used on the cover of Jan & Dean, an alternate take by The Grassroots and on the French cover by Canadian singer Marc Bourret (I recently found that last single).
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: There's one Irish bar in Hell's Kitchen that I go (went?) to sometimes that has a "Hangover Cures of the World" poster in the bathroom, and I am pretty sure both pickle brine and sauerkraut juice are on it.
	5:03pm eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you Matt
	5:03pm Faye: __
	5:03pm Cheek!: What was the name of that movie? Missed it - thanks!
	5:04pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Matty Bones! Get your record badge, Friday Friends! pledge.wfmu.org...
	5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Sheila and all. How are things on Planet Boom today?
	5:07pm Scrappy: Since international travel isn't really a thing now (had to cancel a spring trip to Hungary), I've been buying booze from around the world that I don't usually get, just to ease the wanderlust (it's worked so far). Naturally, the Hangover Cures of the World intrigues me...and will help next time I make a grocery list.
	5:09pm northguineahills: I ordered my food en espanol flawlessly, and I forgot gravy (veggie for my rice and beans), is, duh, salsa! I'm such a morona.
	5:09pm Jett: "Blue Light Yokohama" is an excellent piece of music, something very eerie about it.
	5:09pm Krull Sagan: Man, what an intro to this set! I cannot wait
	5:10pm Krull Sagan: Any particularly unusual acquisitions, Scrappy?
	5:10pm Miss G: Scrappy, did you ever get any Swiss absinthe? (sorry to be so corny, but it has to do with a loved one. I always wanted it, and so I thought maybe it would be a nice thing) Sorry about your Hungarian trip, good luck for shortly thereafter. . .
	5:12pm northguineahills: I've been talking to my former Japanese neighbors (when I was kid, in Japan). Let's just say my hiragana now sucks, but, I put forward ok roman-ji.... (they don't speak much English)>
	5:12pm βrian: I'm considering asking for a leave of absinthe.
	5:12pm P-90: What a giddy, almost breathlessly sincere and personal tribute to Tsutsumi Kyohei! Arigato @Sheila B.
	5:13pm Krull Sagan: Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder....
	5:14pm βrian: So would leaves of absinthe make the heart grow fronder?
	5:14pm Miss G: I can hardly stand it, to go from Ms Toron to Tsutsumi Kyohei, so much info! My brain is exploding! Thank you Sheila B!
	5:17pm northguineahills: I spent many nights in Yokohama, whatever a prepubescent geijin does w/ his friends at night. (I was just happy the school girls petted my blonde hair, saying, "kawaii", and giggle [I was afraid to talk to girls at the time])
	5:20pm Miss G: NGH, thank you for sharing your reminiscences! I was in Japan briefly in 1990, a lifelong dream, and in one mountain resort in the bathing room, my platinum blonde hair and tattoo on my shoulder caused quite a stir .. .plus, my too formal Japanese language. (which they taught me at Japan Society NYC)
	5:20pm Rob Kopp: I'm sorry, but I have to go. Will listen to the last 40 minutes tomorrow, I promise. Have a nice week everyone and until next Wednesday?
	5:21pm Scrappy: Hmm, not sure how unusual they've been, though Mrs. Scrappy usually passes on them. It really started with Unicum Zwack (the factory was on the list for Budapest), and I've been working my way through different kinds of Slivovitz from different countries like Croatia and Serbia. Got raki last time I was out which finally broke my gag response to anise-flavoured liquor. Not sure what to get next. Miss G: Nah, never had Swiss absinthe, but now that you mention it, I'm intrigued and will be on the lookout.
	5:22pm Passaic River Blues: Thank you for that link earlier, Rob!
	5:22pm djsheilab: Did you guys hear me?
	5:23pm Vanessa: yes
	5:23pm VincentNifigance: Yes!
	5:23pm ncjay: we did - after you said "hello" the next song came on
	5:23pm djsheilab: Arggggh! Something's wrong with my mixer.
	5:23pm natbot: Could totally hear you. Killer set!!!
	5:24pm Jett: I heard ya! @djsheilab
	5:24pm northguineahills: @Miss G: i was there from 1986-1989 (I was 10-13 years old, and I was alowed to go out for as long as I wanted (there was no crime), so as long as I got home before the trains stopped running. Having restrictions once I returned back to the States, having restrictions and a curfew, was a big shock).
	5:24pm Miss G: Scrappy, it is _exactly_ Unicum Zwack which was our special thing! That is weird! I will look for that one Swiss Bleue that I want to tell you.
	5:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: I am hearing you now, Sheila.
	5:26pm Mike Sin: I think I first heard this track on one of the fine Ace comps that you compiled!
	5:27pm Miss G: NGH, that is wild! Very different circumstances, indeed! Scrappy, this is the one I want. Of course, first I will pledge to WFMU blush https://www.astorwines.com/SearchResultsSingle.aspx?p=2&search=21321&searchtype=Contains http://www.laclandestine.com/
	5:27pm northguineahills: @Miss G: odoroku bakari!
	5:29pm Faye: wowww i love this one
	5:32pm northguineahills: Kore daisuki. Tsutsumi Kyohei, watashi ni totte atarashī, shoshite digdug!
	5:32pm djsheilab: So up your street, Faye!
	5:32pm Miss G: NGH alls I can say now is "kawaii" <G> and "Nihongo o benkyō shimashita, demo, zen zen wakarimasen!"
	5:32pm djsheilab: Hey Mike Sin!
	5:33pm Scrappy: Miss G, Zwack is fantastic! And legit medicinal, too. It's a go-to stomachache cure for me. Ah, it doesn't look like we get La Clandestine here in Ontario. Well, at least I've got absinthe on my mind now. Helps me with where to put my drinking dollar.
	5:34pm ?: Hmm. Kyoto Endou on Instagram is bunch of pics of delicious looking Japanese cuisine?
	5:35pm Jett: Kurenai Hotel is lovely!
	5:35pm a5vzener: @djsheilab What a great set today! Thanks, Sheila. It's probably common knowledge around here but how long did you live in Japan and did you learn Japanese before/during/after?
	5:36pm northguineahills: @Miss G: My Japanese is so pathetic compared to when I was a kid (I was my my parents interpreter). Aforesaid neighbors helped me w/ my Japanese/
	5:37pm northguineahills: (still working on my English, decades later) ;p
	5:39pm Miss G: NGH, yes, I've lost all my German I knew in the aughts, Still, isn't it nice to watch Japanese films and catch a word here and there? You really feel like you know what they're saying, because of the rhythms. . .
	5:39pm Miss G: This single of the week is making me cry! I"m going to send to my nieces. I turned them on to Dionne Warwick last night!
	5:40pm djsheilab: Miss G—Hits all those emotional spots!
	5:41pm Elvis Causticfellow: Hey that single was great! If I owned it I'd just put it on repeat for an hour or so.
	5:41pm dreamyandseedy: please do 3 hours of Tsutsumi Kyohei!!
	5:41pm djsheilab: Thanks a5vzener! I lived in Japan for just under two years when I was 24-25. And I studied a ton before and during. Not so much after.
	5:41pm Jett: Lesley Gore can never do us wrong! One of my big faves.
	5:43pm northguineahills: @Miss G: My German is now better then my Japanese. (spanish is the only other non-English I'm fluent in, Portuguese is close to my German).
	5:43pm ?: Is Leslie Gore and Lulu related! Hmm
	5:44pm northguineahills: what Jett said....
	5:48pm northguineahills: Linda Perhacs! (this album is loverly!)
	5:49pm Rick G: Chimacum-also the name of a tiny little town out here on the Olympic Peninsula near Port Townsend.
	5:49pm ?: Linda disappeared from the music scene for decades!
	5:50pm Miss G: NGH I clicked on your avatar, you are either someone I know or you have a bandmate that I know? If you were the person I know then you would know this name I'm using. hmm
	5:51pm Mr. Pumpy: That Linda Perhacs song sent me places! Damn! Thanks, Sheila!
	5:51pm Vanessa: luv linda perhacs!!!
	5:52pm Tarambana: Great show as always. Greetings from Madrid!

	5:54pm Mr. Pumpy: Hi, Madrid. Greetings from Jersey! If you bump into my friend Sylvia over there. Tell her I said, "Hello!"
	5:54pm Faye: OMG SHIINA

	3:20pm northguineahills: @Jett: I don't hear most English lyrics, and yet, I understood every word of that song....
	3:21pm djsheilab: northguineahills—I discovered Lhasa long after her untimely death. It must've been brutal for those who knew + loved her.
	3:21pm Rob Kopp: 2 days ago "60 Dutch Nuggets" was placed on tommentonenlacuadra.blogspot.com
	3:22pm Vanessa: hello
	3:25pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa!
	3:26pm northguineahills: @sheilab: I only discovered her discogs after her obit in The Wire in 2010. que pinche!
	3:26pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomers.
	3:27pm WM: Is Cloe from 5 to 7 another one of your favorite movies along with Bitter Moon and Le Samouraï?
	3:27pm northguineahills: If there aren't weird sounds, then it isn't WFMU....
	3:27pm P-90: Suzy has some cute lyrics
	3:28pm Krull Sagan: (Handy @3:14- thanks, and to you as well! I am getting all jealous of this rain talk because it has been like 209 days of unrelenting sun here)
	3:30pm DjLorraine: Hi there Cooh John and music connoisseurs
	3:30pm ncjay: @Rob Kopp: fetching it now. thank you!
	3:31pm Scrappy: On the bright side, 5 à 7 means happy hour in Quebec.

	3:32pm Rob Kopp: @ncjay. Promise you won't listen until after SBB

	3:32pm DjLorraine: I had a wonderful Chinese Crested dog named Banksy
	3:33pm Handy Haversack: Then I wish I was in Quebec right now. Je me souviens! Seriously, why am I still working and completely Quarantini-less? Something's gotta give!

	3:36pm Michael 98145: yes

	3:37pm djsheilab: Hehe...thanks Yami!
	3:37pm northguineahills: @Handy: la rue sainte-catherine me manque....
	3:38pm Michael 98145: twitter sans twits
	3:38pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila. And I like it that you don't get mad at me for (mis)using your playlist, but it doesn't happen that much that they ask me to make a compilation of Dutch artists
	3:38pm Krull Sagan: Oh for a Québécois cocktail hour, super-chouette!...sigh....
	3:39pm Handy Haversack: Je comprends, ngh.
	3:40pm annette: Djsheilaaaah. you r making this rainy day very smooth. gonna pop the bubbly soon. remember the day you got your citizenship
	3:40pm Rick G: Cheerful Friday Sheila and listeners, from the woods above Hood Canal WA. Happy to be here.
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey Carmichael, WM, Scrappy, Jason from Houston, schmutz, annette + Rick G!
	3:42pm Cooh John: Hi, Sis. Catching the comments between relays. I believe the music is healing my body. Maybe more so with headphones.
	3:42pm djsheilab: This Julia Holter re-release so perfectly captures the feeling of today.
	3:43pm Scrappy: @Handy @Krull Ben, il est 17h quelque part!
	3:43pm djsheilab: Hey Cooh John!
	3:44pm Michael 98145: c'est vrai
	3:44pm Christopher: Hey Sheila. Getting fully awake from nap. Thankfully caught your Massive Attack story. I can’t compete with that but I saw them on The Mezzanine tour. They literally made me sick with the low end frequencies and volume. Saw them just last year and could not believe they were even louder! In league with Slayer! Hopefully don’t have to wait another 20 years to see them again!
	3:45pm Jett: Yes it is so true that you, @djsheilab have a way of brightening up even the most miserable cloudy, snitzy, rainy days. We're all very blessed to be exposed to your great talent of selecting the best in music. Thank you.
	3:46pm power_crystals: dare i say SBB is the highlight of working from home on fridays? i think so
	3:47pm djsheilab: Christopher—Massive Attack + Slayer—now that'd be an excellent double bill! I kinda wish there were more unexpected bills in the world.
	3:48pm djsheilab: power_crystals—I'm so happy to hear it!
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks for your lovely words, Jett!
	3:48pm Handy Haversack: @ (à) Scrappy, içi maintenant!
	3:50pm Michael 98145: ooh, loverly
	3:50pm Passaic River Blues: @Michael: same thoughts over this-a-way.
	3:50pm phat: Wow, this Cleo Sol
	3:54pm Vanessa: @power_crystals and @djsheilab - i second that!
	3:55pm northguineahills: Elis Regina, already pre-faved!
	3:55pm Yes: This is very nice
	3:55pm Yes: ^elis
	3:56pm June: Oh my goodness so glad I can actually tune in even if it’s 30 minutes! This selection is so on point. Sending love to you Sheila!
	3:56pm Cooh John: Hey back at ya, djsheilab. Can't wait for the interview. Sounds like a 1-2 punch coupled with last week's interview. My sister, DjLorraine, has joined the ranks of the boom boom crowd.
	3:56pm listener james from westwood: Thought this might've been one of the various Betties Boop!
	3:58pm DjLorraine: P-90 the sound was short like in saying “whip“.
	4:00pm Andrew_in_WI: @djsheilab If you get a chance this weekend check out Joe Belock's show that just ended. Really think you'd like it.
	4:00pm northguineahills: The first modern push for vegetarianism was in the 1880a in Europe.... (the later spread to NA....
	4:01pm northguineahills: 1880s....
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: Scrappy, Krull: Satan's Whiskerses mixed a served. A votre santé!
	4:02pm Scrappy: @Handy Je préfére à crois que le 5 à 7 est un état d'esprit...c'est lá que je vis ces temps-ci. Le sign
	4:02pm eric from lake hiawatha: Blessed are we to learn your approach to your art.
	4:02pm P-90: “Button Up” lyrics by songsmiths B G DeSylva and Lee Brown. A classic of its ilk.
	4:02pm Russt44: DeSylva and Brown lyrics for Overcoat
	4:03pm Handy Haversack: * ^and served. Le sigh.
	4:04pm Scrappy: About time for a raki and water. À la vôtre aussi! (Whew, most French I've used in a while)
	4:07pm Ike: Cool sounds!
	4:07pm Heidee: This is so beautiful. Hi all!
	4:09pm Reinaldo: I can sing that lol okay let me sleep now toooo relax hmmmmahuuummm
	4:11pm lex: Mashallah
	4:11pm P-90: WFMU: The HOME of the convoluted
	4:17pm P-90: Perhaps the most ancient philosophical question: “Who’s driving the bus?”
	4:18pm Krull Sagan: Handy, what in the hell is the recipéee for that?! I must know Satan’s Whiskerses
	4:18pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	4:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Phillippe! Krull: equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, OJ; half part triple sec; a couple of dashes of orange bitters. Shake with ice, serve up. Twirl and preen at your discretion.
	4:26pm Krull Sagan: Love Bisan’s perspective; jiving with my recent dive into Alan Watts....and centuries of wisdom from all over
	4:28pm Krull Sagan: Make mine a double, Handy; I’ve got the twirling and preening down but the sauerkraut juice & jar of old wine in my fridge aren’t gonna cut it
	4:30pm DL in LA: The journey is the reward, as they say. Thanks for this interview.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: It's a place to start, Krull!
	4:37pm Scrappy: Krull: it might not be the ingredients for Satan's Whiskers, but...it's something? www.craftbeering.com...
	4:39pm Rita P: thank you so much for this conversation!! So special to hear it on the new moon in libra
	4:39pm Handy Haversack: Huh. One to one! Well, I mean, I have vodka and sauerkraut ...
	4:40pm Scrappy: I wonder if the sauerkraut juice helps offset hangovers
	4:41pm DjLorraine: Sacred truth, thank you Bisan Toron
	4:42pm Miss G: I couldn't give this the attention it deserves and so will listen again, but it is so amazing! Thank you Sheila and Bisan. <3
	4:45pm djsheilab: Here is the link for the documentary "Searching For Kikhia: www.mansurkikhia.org
	4:46pm The Librarian: I missed the name of the movie. Help me!
	4:46pm djsheilab: And a link to Bisan's site: www.bisantoron.com
	4:48pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but great show! I caught Lovers Rock at NYFF as well, and this in particular is one of the best scenes I've seen all year. It'll be on Prime next month!
	4:48pm Duane: Great tune! Big ups to Dennis Bovell! One of the great producers of the era
	4:48pm djsheilab: Duane—That record is PERFECTION. I would like to live in it forever!
	4:49pm Bill: A remarkable interview, a remarkable woman. So well done. Enlightening.
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thanks Bill! And to all of you leaving such kind praise for Bisan! Xoxo
	4:51pm DjLorraine: I love documentaries. The tears made my voice change when i told my honey about it.
	4:52pm Krull Sagan: Scrappy, Haversacky, I think we're on to something; and I absolutely drink pickle juice with the garlic chunks on those, er, dicey mornings
	4:52pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Great interview Sheila
	4:52pm Rob Kopp: Yeah, a P.F. Sloan song.
	4:53pm Rob Kopp: Phil was such a nice guy.
	4:59pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hola Sheilab, enjoyed your interview with Bisan.
	4:59pm Scrappy: Krull: Yeah, I'm with you on the pickle juice with garlic chunks. Even if there's a placebo bump, the thought of downing some briny garlic chunks makes my brain and stomach feel like they're regenerating. Feels like a home remedy that's got legs.
	5:00pm Krull Sagan: Scrap, I think that's how old witchy remedies come about! I'm on board
	5:00pm Rob Kopp: Sloan's most famous song must be Eve of destruction. The same backing that was used on the hit by Barry McGuire was also used on the cover of Jan & Dean, an alternate take by The Grassroots and on the French cover by Canadian singer Marc Bourret (I recently found that last single).
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: There's one Irish bar in Hell's Kitchen that I go (went?) to sometimes that has a "Hangover Cures of the World" poster in the bathroom, and I am pretty sure both pickle brine and sauerkraut juice are on it.
	5:03pm eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you Matt
	5:03pm Faye: __
	5:03pm Cheek!: What was the name of that movie? Missed it - thanks!
	5:04pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Matty Bones! Get your record badge, Friday Friends! pledge.wfmu.org...
	5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Sheila and all. How are things on Planet Boom today?
	5:07pm Scrappy: Since international travel isn't really a thing now (had to cancel a spring trip to Hungary), I've been buying booze from around the world that I don't usually get, just to ease the wanderlust (it's worked so far). Naturally, the Hangover Cures of the World intrigues me...and will help next time I make a grocery list.
	5:09pm northguineahills: I ordered my food en espanol flawlessly, and I forgot gravy (veggie for my rice and beans), is, duh, salsa! I'm such a morona.
	5:09pm Jett: "Blue Light Yokohama" is an excellent piece of music, something very eerie about it.
	5:09pm Krull Sagan: Man, what an intro to this set! I cannot wait
	5:10pm Krull Sagan: Any particularly unusual acquisitions, Scrappy?
	5:10pm Miss G: Scrappy, did you ever get any Swiss absinthe? (sorry to be so corny, but it has to do with a loved one. I always wanted it, and so I thought maybe it would be a nice thing) Sorry about your Hungarian trip, good luck for shortly thereafter. . .
	5:12pm northguineahills: I've been talking to my former Japanese neighbors (when I was kid, in Japan). Let's just say my hiragana now sucks, but, I put forward ok roman-ji.... (they don't speak much English)>
	5:12pm βrian: I'm considering asking for a leave of absinthe.
	5:12pm P-90: What a giddy, almost breathlessly sincere and personal tribute to Tsutsumi Kyohei! Arigato @Sheila B.
	5:13pm Krull Sagan: Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder....
	5:14pm βrian: So would leaves of absinthe make the heart grow fronder?
	5:14pm Miss G: I can hardly stand it, to go from Ms Toron to Tsutsumi Kyohei, so much info! My brain is exploding! Thank you Sheila B!
	5:17pm northguineahills: I spent many nights in Yokohama, whatever a prepubescent geijin does w/ his friends at night. (I was just happy the school girls petted my blonde hair, saying, "kawaii", and giggle [I was afraid to talk to girls at the time])
	5:20pm Miss G: NGH, thank you for sharing your reminiscences! I was in Japan briefly in 1990, a lifelong dream, and in one mountain resort in the bathing room, my platinum blonde hair and tattoo on my shoulder caused quite a stir .. .plus, my too formal Japanese language. (which they taught me at Japan Society NYC)
	5:20pm Rob Kopp: I'm sorry, but I have to go. Will listen to the last 40 minutes tomorrow, I promise. Have a nice week everyone and until next Wednesday?
	5:21pm Scrappy: Hmm, not sure how unusual they've been, though Mrs. Scrappy usually passes on them. It really started with Unicum Zwack (the factory was on the list for Budapest), and I've been working my way through different kinds of Slivovitz from different countries like Croatia and Serbia. Got raki last time I was out which finally broke my gag response to anise-flavoured liquor. Not sure what to get next. Miss G: Nah, never had Swiss absinthe, but now that you mention it, I'm intrigued and will be on the lookout.
	5:22pm Passaic River Blues: Thank you for that link earlier, Rob!
	5:22pm djsheilab: Did you guys hear me?
	5:23pm Vanessa: yes
	5:23pm VincentNifigance: Yes!
	5:23pm ncjay: we did - after you said "hello" the next song came on
	5:23pm djsheilab: Arggggh! Something's wrong with my mixer.
	5:23pm natbot: Could totally hear you. Killer set!!!
	5:24pm Jett: I heard ya! @djsheilab
	5:24pm northguineahills: @Miss G: i was there from 1986-1989 (I was 10-13 years old, and I was alowed to go out for as long as I wanted (there was no crime), so as long as I got home before the trains stopped running. Having restrictions once I returned back to the States, having restrictions and a curfew, was a big shock).
	5:24pm Miss G: Scrappy, it is _exactly_ Unicum Zwack which was our special thing! That is weird! I will look for that one Swiss Bleue that I want to tell you.
	5:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: I am hearing you now, Sheila.
	5:26pm Mike Sin: I think I first heard this track on one of the fine Ace comps that you compiled!
	5:27pm Miss G: NGH, that is wild! Very different circumstances, indeed! Scrappy, this is the one I want. Of course, first I will pledge to WFMU blush https://www.astorwines.com/SearchResultsSingle.aspx?p=2&search=21321&searchtype=Contains http://www.laclandestine.com/

	5:36pm northguineahills: @Miss G: My Japanese is so pathetic compared to when I was a kid (I was my my parents interpreter). Aforesaid neighbors helped me w/ my Japanese/
	5:37pm northguineahills: (still working on my English, decades later) ;p
	5:39pm Miss G: NGH, yes, I've lost all my German I knew in the aughts, Still, isn't it nice to watch Japanese films and catch a word here and there? You really feel like you know what they're saying, because of the rhythms. . .
