	1:10pm common: Rex, all
	1:10pm Handy Haversack: Rex! Fools! I am experiencing mudhole dryness and need to consult my DJ immediately!
	1:11pm Mostly Shookup: Three hours of Rex's famous elixer should do the job Handy.
	1:12pm davefromtoronto: unfortunately it's only 2.
	1:13pm davefromtoronto: but it should be 3!
	1:13pm SeanG: MOMMA
	🌮 1:13pm Bruce S.: I love the outfits the extras wore in those universal horror movies suggesting eastern european peasantry
	1:14pm Mostly Shookup: uho, Handy, you may need to turn the radio dial to 11 for two hours.
	1:14pm DjLorraine: Rex!.... n fools
	1:15pm davefromtoronto: that scene where franky tosses her in the pond is classic. cut out of a lot of versions.
	1:15pm Mostly Shookup: Do you remember the movie title Dave?
	🌮 1:16pm Bruce S.: Speaking of Pathos, that scene had it
	1:16pm davefromtoronto: it's the original frankenstein from '31
	1:16pm medson: Is there going to be any Hijinx here today?
	1:16pm Mostly Shookup: Thanks!
	1:17pm Handy Haversack: Guaranteed now that you're here, medson!
	1:17pm davefromtoronto: that scene was cut from the dozens of times i watched it as a kid.
	1:18pm medson: Hey Handy
	1:18pm davefromtoronto: btw that movie still has magic moments.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: Great show last night, medson. Listened to the end, but our neighbors came by for a drink around 6:30.
	1:20pm davefromtoronto: michael mark has a HUGE filmography and virtually everything uncredited!
	1:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - Universal's Frankensteins. Ok no stripper is forgiven.
	1:21pm Scott Cornish: Johnny Knight made a rare appearance as himself AND the Gamma Goochee (Himself) in New Orleans about 5 years ago. It was rock n' roll (guitar) history at its ca-raziest!
	🌮 1:22pm Bruce S.: as long as his paycheck was credited to him he didn't care
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: Are morals supposed to have a zipper? I'm not even sure where to look.
	🌮 1:23pm Bruce S.: some of them have buttons
	1:23pm medson: Thanks Handy. Hope it ruin your friendship.
	1:24pm Jay: XYM - eXamine Your Morals
	1:24pm davefromtoronto: as long as they're not under a chastity belt...
	1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I suspect most peoples' morals feature barely velcro...
	1:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sadly, like the page today - my morals have no stripper...
	1:26pm Jay: Never trust a fastener that uses hook and loop, it's a recipe for disaster
	1:26pm davefromtoronto: rex must be in an existential mood today...
	1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yer always gonna hook the wrong thing ...a bit like strippers...
	1:27pm Little Danny: hey rex hey all!
	1:27pm DjLorraine: Someone once told me to “zip it“
	1:27pm Mostly Shookup: lol "My morals have no velcro" I had googled the original line to find the actress, first link was Rex's comment board. Ain't it a grand world, velcro and all.
	1:28pm Sylvia's Mother: I'm a heckuva nice girl!
	1:28pm davefromtoronto: the zipperless morals chick is the same one that did the devil voices in the exorcist.
	🌮 1:29pm Bruce S.: that Betty Jo record was kind of interesting
	1:29pm Mostly Shookup: Hook and loop have frustrated generations of bra-fumbling teenagers. Velcro bras can't come soon enough.
	1:29pm Accordion To Phil: “You’re gonna need my help” I think Dylan quoted that in “Summer Nights are Gone” - “you can’t make love all by yourself”
	1:30pm Accordion To Phil: Must be a Rex fan too
	1:30pm briania: Ted Brooks, another in the series of "guitar-impression" records. How many of these ya got, Rex?
	1:31pm Kitschy Mama: Hey! I’m here for the songs about Hank Garland!
	1:31pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, if your WIFIs are up to it, I e-mailed you back. Need a couple of pieces of info if you have a chance some time.
	1:32pm briania: Haha, Hot Steel, another variant.
	1:33pm Dano59: Phil Baugh's 'Country Guitar' and anytime Bill Kirchen plays 'Hot Rod Lincoln' also in this vein...
	1:33pm P-90: This Tiny M is all killer and no filler
	1:35pm Greg from ZONE 5: WHOA I think this might be the most experimental thing you've ever played.
	1:35pm Dano59: next up: The Third Man theme?
	1:35pm Kitschy Mama: In walks R.Crumb….
	1:36pm Juke Joint Jonny: Hitting that Chinatown motif hard! Love it.
	1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reminded once more that for all my Gittarheadedness - have yet to so much as sit @ a pedal steel contraption...
	1:38pm davefromtoronto: rex will clear everything up for us.
	1:39pm Handy Haversack: Gonna try to get my boots tied fast before the kittens notice!
	1:40pm P-90: I don’t recall ever hearing or reading about this Hot Club of America. Cool single though, vaguely intriguing.
	1:40pm Don F.: Greetings nobrows.
	1:40pm andy fuchs: It's actually Jody Carver on Limehouse Blues: He was the Fender East coast regional sales rep in the 60's. I remember him visiting my dad's store in the mid 60's on a sales call and playing some serious steel !!!
	1:40pm Handy Haversack: Too late!
	1:41pm mariano: You're rightfully paying the price for such hubris, Handy.
	1:41pm P-90: OMG poor Ludwig…
	🌮 1:41pm Mailman Tom: My DVD of Frankenstein includes the censored scene!
	1:42pm Handy Haversack: Blood makes the knots tighter, Mariano, so I win anyway!
	🌮 1:42pm Bruce S.: Hey Michael Mark, We Salute You!
	1:43pm P-90: …from SpazzCo?
	1:43pm P-90: knew it!
	1:44pm medson: SpazzCo is always scouring Small Town USA for talent. Or lack there of.
	1:45pm davefromtoronto: and here i thought rex was above payola...
	1:45pm Mostly Shookup: Dave the Spazz can tell Phil Spectre to "Eat his heart out"
	1:46pm Mister Dobalina: I heard that someone in the studio put pizza sauce in the MiniDisc player...oh well.
	1:46pm Dave the Spazz: This has pep!
	1:46pm Dano59: there's 14,872 dentists waiting in Nashville ...
	1:46pm Greg from ZONE 5: Yo medson! Jammed The Dose (as I call it) archive with breakfast this morning. Great stuff!
	🌮 1:46pm Bruce S.: Speaking of Spazz, I Found out Ronnie Spectors Mother was Native American and her Father was Irish! that was a Revelation to me,I always thought of her as black or latin
	1:47pm Greg from ZONE 5: To be fair, I'd rather listen to Rocky Foster than Adele.
	1:47pm medson: Thanks Greg.
	1:47pm Dano59: Ronnie's mom was Af-American with Cherokee ancestry, and her (paternal?) great-grandfather was Chinese. A most beautiful mutt. (muttette)
	1:47pm P-90: This guy’s def got something. Put him with some professional production (Timbaland? Mutt Lange?) and big things could happen.
	1:48pm davefromtoronto: yeah she was amazing looking.
	1:48pm Listener John from NJ: Wild that Michael Mark & family settled in New Brunswick NJ . . . For some reason a lot of Belarusan people ended up in that area (esp. after World War II). There's at least 2 Belarusan Orthodox churches in the area (from different factions of the church). Used to be 4 or more. I wonder why? Y'all know?
	1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hybrid Vigor - to use an uncomfortably Clinical term.
	1:49pm Mister Dobalina: Off to make turkey chili soon, think I might throw in some chipotle sauce in there.
	1:51pm P-90: “always brewed in just the right amounts” so important
	🌮 1:53pm Bruce S.: you know the movie Mean Streets actualy has a happy ending, Because at the begining of the Movie, under the pulsating beat of Be My Baby , we see home movies of the wedding of Charlie and Teresa, and the birth of their first child, events that took place after the events in the movie, so there you go
	1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull, now you got me wantin' tuh hear some JuniorBrown...
	1:55pm neveract: Backup singers almost sound like the Jordanaires. Love the organ.
	1:58pm SWK: It’s a sham!
	🌮 1:58pm Bruce S.: Mescaleen?
	1:58pm Kotzwinkled: Buck Richey, please send me your dealer's #. Thanks in advance.
	1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BigWheel - a great track! ...where does this square find all that mescaline...
	1:58pm davefromtoronto: looks like we got a hippy in a blunder here...
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: Gotta run to the store. Should be back before the end. Anyone need any mescaleen or pot?
	1:59pm Pat Olds: I remember The Hound, years ago on his show, referred to Ronnie Spector as someone’s(?) “Filipino love pump.” So I figured she was Latin from Spanish Harlem, and Filipino. Am I to now doubt The Hound ??
	1:59pm davefromtoronto: grab me some lsd and moonshine if you can
	2:00pm Mostly Shookup: Yeah Handy,,if you see Buck Ritchey on the corner, pick up a bag of that Psychedelic Fog for me.
	🌮 2:00pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rex and all!!!
	2:00pm Creature Boy: Can we send away for score cards?
	2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but what's his position on vaccination ...I need a pure true source of critical data...
	2:01pm Mister Dobalina: ∀ ɯɯ O ɯ
	2:01pm Listener John from NJ: Man, I feel just like that hippie guy and I've never even taken any drugs . . . Be careful you kids out there.
	2:01pm Mister Dobalina: The Spazz that haunts us.
	2:02pm davefromtoronto: and we still have the lunkhead set to look forward to!
	2:02pm Mostly Shookup: Denial of being in denial and hopelessly repeating failure is mentacide. Toxic dosage levels of blue pill can’t sustain ‘bliss of ignorance’ which is the whole point of the blue pill.
	2:04pm davefromtoronto: mentacide! who'd a thunk we'd learn a new word on this show!
	2:07pm P-90: That word “Naugahyde” pops up in the oddest places
	2:07pm Mostly Shookup: Naugahyde shout-out Yea!
	2:08pm Greg from ZONE 5: BOIN K-DOE BOIN!
	2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mescaleen, mentacide & too much herbal stimuluhs.
	2:08pm davefromtoronto: boin! there's another new word.
	2:08pm Mister Dobalina: Was just thinkin' about the stimuluhs..
	2:09pm Mostly Shookup: Scrabble anyone!?
	2:09pm davefromtoronto: is there a connection between naugahyde and nougat?
	🌮 2:09pm Bruce S.: Mentaside caused by too much daytime TV
	2:10pm davefromtoronto: mentaside is my new favorite word! i will use it in scrabble one day...
	🌮 2:11pm Mailman Tom: Bo Diddley, one of the giants of rock and roll!
	2:13pm davefromtoronto: big bill!
	🌮 2:13pm Mailman Tom: Waiting to hear some audio clips from the 1942 movie, Lady Gangster!
	🌮 2:13pm Bruce S.: Mentaside is like likeing Expendables 3 or something
	2:13pm Mostly Shookup: Bruce, I dumped the TV ten years ago. I had no idea that move would save my life. Even the radio is 24/7 fear porn propaganda so only have music left for audio entertainment. That’s why Amish don’t get Covid. They don’t have TVs.
	2:14pm Mister Dobalina: Rex, can you not play a bad song?
	2:14pm rx scabin: Excellent show today: cookin'.
	🌮 2:14pm Bruce S.: Hey Chicken Stuff Gooooooooooood
	2:16pm Mostly Shookup: Now we know where Paula Deen got her baking inspiration from.
	2:16pm davefromtoronto: exactly bruce s
	2:17pm Mister Dobalina: I remember the first time I had some delicious chitlins...amazing stuff...slow grilled, crunchy goodness.
	2:18pm rx scabin: Words to live by.
	2:18pm Mister Dobalina: Stay country, ya'll.
	2:22pm medson: Doing business as Percy Helton! Smart move, I like it.
	2:22pm Mostly Shookup: The Divits?! What brainiac decided THAT was a good band name? (Probably Dave Divit)
	2:22pm Juke Joint Jonny: every kiss is shot from guns lol
	2:23pm Creature Boy: I followed Percy Helton on Instagram and all I got was this lousy tshirt
	🌮 2:23pm Bruce S.: The Divots did a show with the Warblers a few years ago
	🌮 2:25pm Bruce S.: this reminds me of the crusher a little
	2:25pm davefromtoronto: crater soda?
	2:25pm bobobob dublon Plasticland: @yeah Rex...i actually drank Gran Marnier with Bo Diddley. he poured it out of a huge bottle ..Marty Zivcos ballroom in Hartford while he told me stories bout him being deputized a sheriff..lovley guy
	2:25pm Mister Dobalina: Gonna havta clicky star fav this one.
	2:25pm Dominick: I want one!
	2:26pm Richard Whig: the crusher drinks crater soda!!
	2:26pm davefromtoronto: the crusher!
	2:27pm Richard Whig: I wanna talk to the wolfman!!!!
	2:27pm Doug in JC: AWWWOOOOOOOOOOO
	🌮 2:28pm Bruce S.: see I could easily listen to 10 minutes of that wolfman
	2:28pm davefromtoronto: yeah but he blew a huge endorsement deal with orange crush.
	2:28pm Juke Joint Jonny: Boy, the vom set is really pushing the limit today
	2:29pm rx scabin: The Bleaters, great name.
	🌮 2:30pm Mailman Tom: Percy Helton has a pretty good role in the 1948 movie, Larceny
	2:30pm davefromtoronto: bleaters are the GOAT's of lunkhead rock.
	2:30pm Mister Dobalina: MoRiss the MotoCicle rider!
	2:31pm Juke Joint Jonny: Nice one dave
	2:31pm Creature Boy: 5$ dollars goes to the first person who DOESN'T mention the YaRdBiRds
	🌮 2:31pm Bruce S.: Good one Dave
	2:31pm davefromtoronto: #flattered...
	2:32pm Juke Joint Jonny: You can put Certain Girl in your No Bad Versions of This Song file
	2:32pm Mostly Shookup: So many "What's Her Name" Songs...youhoo, DJ Station Manager Ken....
	2:33pm bobobob: @creature ...Ernie K Dough
	2:34pm Creature Boy: Cutting checks ova' here
	2:34pm Mostly Shookup: "The Swappers" Sounds like an STD lol
	2:34pm Creature Boy: Dig me , I'm givin out wings!
	2:34pm yer swingin neighbour: who's up for a key party??
	2:34pm P-90: Somehow I’ve managed to avoid seeing “The Swappers”. So far.
	2:35pm Juke Joint Jonny: Amphetamine version of Louie
	2:35pm davefromtoronto: i'd love to know how many versions of this song have been attempted.
	2:36pm davefromtoronto: it's gotta be one of the most covered songs ever!
	🌮 2:37pm Bruce S.: that Louie go home was really good
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: OK, there may have been a slight issue with getting all the LSD and moonshine home from the store. I had all the best intentions. Let's not play the blame game.
	2:38pm Maynard G: now yer Talkin!
	🌮 2:38pm Bruce S.: everyone over to Handy's House!
	2:38pm ?: "Louie Come Home" is the correct title
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: I do have broccoli rabe!
	2:39pm Mostly Shookup: "By some accounts, there have been 1,200 versions of "Louie Louie" recorded over the years, including recordings by Frank Zappa, Motorhead, the Psychotic Petunias"
	2:40pm Mostly Shookup: Handy, why yo eyes so red?
	2:41pm davefromtoronto: it's cool handy - maybe a murder trip wasn't such a good idea anyways...
	2:41pm solo mon: Yes to dry cereal! Love that song.
	2:41pm Katy_bar_the_door: Thee Headcoatees - Louis Riel www.youtube.com...
	2:43pm Creature Boy: The vocalist for the Kingsmen's version of Louie Louie sang the tune into a microphone dangling somewhere directly above his head. Talk about your awkward head positions & quirky deliveries
	2:43pm Greg from ZONE 5: Doin' the Switch over here, boss.
	2:43pm solo mon: Click click
	2:45pm Creature Boy: Jack Ely w the Kingsmen
	🌮 2:45pm Bruce S.: Quick Sand GOOOOOOOOOOOD!
	2:45pm davefromtoronto: an article on louie louie https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/jack-ely-louie-louie-the-dirtiest-song-of-the-sixties

	2:51pm solo mon: I’m a hog fried child oink oink sui baby sui

	1:07pm davefromtoronto: she didn't float...
	1:07pm SeanG: don't mess my hair up!
	1:08pm Greg from ZONE 5: Afternoon, Rex & Fools!
	1:08pm Mostly Shookup: With all these celebs dropping like handfuls of rice at a wedding from the poison, Rex will have plenty to choose from Rev.
	1:10pm common: Rex, all
	1:10pm Handy Haversack: Rex! Fools! I am experiencing mudhole dryness and need to consult my DJ immediately!
	1:11pm Mostly Shookup: Three hours of Rex's famous elixer should do the job Handy.
	1:12pm davefromtoronto: unfortunately it's only 2.
	1:13pm davefromtoronto: but it should be 3!
	1:13pm SeanG: MOMMA
	🌮 1:13pm Bruce S.: I love the outfits the extras wore in those universal horror movies suggesting eastern european peasantry
	1:14pm Mostly Shookup: uho, Handy, you may need to turn the radio dial to 11 for two hours.
	1:14pm DjLorraine: Rex!.... n fools
	1:15pm davefromtoronto: that scene where franky tosses her in the pond is classic. cut out of a lot of versions.
	1:15pm Mostly Shookup: Do you remember the movie title Dave?
	🌮 1:16pm Bruce S.: Speaking of Pathos, that scene had it
	1:16pm davefromtoronto: it's the original frankenstein from '31
	1:16pm medson: Is there going to be any Hijinx here today?
	1:16pm Mostly Shookup: Thanks!
	1:17pm Handy Haversack: Guaranteed now that you're here, medson!
	1:17pm davefromtoronto: that scene was cut from the dozens of times i watched it as a kid.
	1:18pm medson: Hey Handy
	1:18pm davefromtoronto: btw that movie still has magic moments.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: Great show last night, medson. Listened to the end, but our neighbors came by for a drink around 6:30.
	1:20pm davefromtoronto: michael mark has a HUGE filmography and virtually everything uncredited!
	1:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh - Universal's Frankensteins. Ok no stripper is forgiven.
	1:21pm Scott Cornish: Johnny Knight made a rare appearance as himself AND the Gamma Goochee (Himself) in New Orleans about 5 years ago. It was rock n' roll (guitar) history at its ca-raziest!
	🌮 1:22pm Bruce S.: as long as his paycheck was credited to him he didn't care
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: Are morals supposed to have a zipper? I'm not even sure where to look.
	🌮 1:23pm Bruce S.: some of them have buttons
	1:23pm medson: Thanks Handy. Hope it ruin your friendship.
	1:24pm Jay: XYM - eXamine Your Morals
	1:24pm davefromtoronto: as long as they're not under a chastity belt...
	1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I suspect most peoples' morals feature barely velcro...
	1:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sadly, like the page today - my morals have no stripper...
	1:26pm Jay: Never trust a fastener that uses hook and loop, it's a recipe for disaster
	1:26pm davefromtoronto: rex must be in an existential mood today...
	1:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yer always gonna hook the wrong thing ...a bit like strippers...
	1:27pm Little Danny: hey rex hey all!
	1:27pm DjLorraine: Someone once told me to “zip it“
	1:27pm Mostly Shookup: lol "My morals have no velcro" I had googled the original line to find the actress, first link was Rex's comment board. Ain't it a grand world, velcro and all.
	1:28pm Sylvia's Mother: I'm a heckuva nice girl!
	1:28pm davefromtoronto: the zipperless morals chick is the same one that did the devil voices in the exorcist.
	🌮 1:29pm Bruce S.: that Betty Jo record was kind of interesting
	1:29pm Mostly Shookup: Hook and loop have frustrated generations of bra-fumbling teenagers. Velcro bras can't come soon enough.
	1:29pm Accordion To Phil: “You’re gonna need my help” I think Dylan quoted that in “Summer Nights are Gone” - “you can’t make love all by yourself”
	1:30pm Accordion To Phil: Must be a Rex fan too
	1:30pm briania: Ted Brooks, another in the series of "guitar-impression" records. How many of these ya got, Rex?
	1:31pm Kitschy Mama: Hey! I’m here for the songs about Hank Garland!
	1:31pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, if your WIFIs are up to it, I e-mailed you back. Need a couple of pieces of info if you have a chance some time.
	1:32pm briania: Haha, Hot Steel, another variant.
	1:33pm Dano59: Phil Baugh's 'Country Guitar' and anytime Bill Kirchen plays 'Hot Rod Lincoln' also in this vein...
	1:33pm P-90: This Tiny M is all killer and no filler
	1:35pm Greg from ZONE 5: WHOA I think this might be the most experimental thing you've ever played.
	1:35pm Dano59: next up: The Third Man theme?
	1:35pm Kitschy Mama: In walks R.Crumb….
	1:36pm Juke Joint Jonny: Hitting that Chinatown motif hard! Love it.
	1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reminded once more that for all my Gittarheadedness - have yet to so much as sit @ a pedal steel contraption...
	1:38pm davefromtoronto: rex will clear everything up for us.
	1:39pm Handy Haversack: Gonna try to get my boots tied fast before the kittens notice!
	1:40pm P-90: I don’t recall ever hearing or reading about this Hot Club of America. Cool single though, vaguely intriguing.
	1:40pm Don F.: Greetings nobrows.
	1:40pm andy fuchs: It's actually Jody Carver on Limehouse Blues: He was the Fender East coast regional sales rep in the 60's. I remember him visiting my dad's store in the mid 60's on a sales call and playing some serious steel !!!
	1:40pm Handy Haversack: Too late!
	1:41pm mariano: You're rightfully paying the price for such hubris, Handy.
	1:41pm P-90: OMG poor Ludwig…
	🌮 1:41pm Mailman Tom: My DVD of Frankenstein includes the censored scene!
	1:42pm Handy Haversack: Blood makes the knots tighter, Mariano, so I win anyway!
	🌮 1:42pm Bruce S.: Hey Michael Mark, We Salute You!
	1:43pm P-90: …from SpazzCo?
	1:43pm P-90: knew it!
	1:44pm medson: SpazzCo is always scouring Small Town USA for talent. Or lack there of.
	1:45pm davefromtoronto: and here i thought rex was above payola...
	1:45pm Mostly Shookup: Dave the Spazz can tell Phil Spectre to "Eat his heart out"
	1:46pm Mister Dobalina: I heard that someone in the studio put pizza sauce in the MiniDisc player...oh well.
	1:46pm Dave the Spazz: This has pep!
	1:46pm Dano59: there's 14,872 dentists waiting in Nashville ...
	1:46pm Greg from ZONE 5: Yo medson! Jammed The Dose (as I call it) archive with breakfast this morning. Great stuff!
	🌮 1:46pm Bruce S.: Speaking of Spazz, I Found out Ronnie Spectors Mother was Native American and her Father was Irish! that was a Revelation to me,I always thought of her as black or latin
	1:47pm Greg from ZONE 5: To be fair, I'd rather listen to Rocky Foster than Adele.
	1:47pm medson: Thanks Greg.
	1:47pm Dano59: Ronnie's mom was Af-American with Cherokee ancestry, and her (paternal?) great-grandfather was Chinese. A most beautiful mutt. (muttette)
	1:47pm P-90: This guy’s def got something. Put him with some professional production (Timbaland? Mutt Lange?) and big things could happen.
	1:48pm davefromtoronto: yeah she was amazing looking.
	1:48pm Listener John from NJ: Wild that Michael Mark & family settled in New Brunswick NJ . . . For some reason a lot of Belarusan people ended up in that area (esp. after World War II). There's at least 2 Belarusan Orthodox churches in the area (from different factions of the church). Used to be 4 or more. I wonder why? Y'all know?
	1:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hybrid Vigor - to use an uncomfortably Clinical term.
	1:49pm Mister Dobalina: Off to make turkey chili soon, think I might throw in some chipotle sauce in there.
	1:51pm P-90: “always brewed in just the right amounts” so important
	🌮 1:53pm Bruce S.: you know the movie Mean Streets actualy has a happy ending, Because at the begining of the Movie, under the pulsating beat of Be My Baby , we see home movies of the wedding of Charlie and Teresa, and the birth of their first child, events that took place after the events in the movie, so there you go
	1:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull, now you got me wantin' tuh hear some JuniorBrown...
	1:55pm neveract: Backup singers almost sound like the Jordanaires. Love the organ.
	1:58pm SWK: It’s a sham!
	🌮 1:58pm Bruce S.: Mescaleen?
	1:58pm Kotzwinkled: Buck Richey, please send me your dealer's #. Thanks in advance.
	1:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BigWheel - a great track! ...where does this square find all that mescaline...
	1:58pm davefromtoronto: looks like we got a hippy in a blunder here...
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: Gotta run to the store. Should be back before the end. Anyone need any mescaleen or pot?
	1:59pm Pat Olds: I remember The Hound, years ago on his show, referred to Ronnie Spector as someone’s(?) “Filipino love pump.” So I figured she was Latin from Spanish Harlem, and Filipino. Am I to now doubt The Hound ??
	1:59pm davefromtoronto: grab me some lsd and moonshine if you can
	2:00pm Mostly Shookup: Yeah Handy,,if you see Buck Ritchey on the corner, pick up a bag of that Psychedelic Fog for me.
	🌮 2:00pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rex and all!!!
	2:00pm Creature Boy: Can we send away for score cards?
	2:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but what's his position on vaccination ...I need a pure true source of critical data...
	2:01pm Mister Dobalina: ∀ ɯɯ O ɯ
	2:01pm Listener John from NJ: Man, I feel just like that hippie guy and I've never even taken any drugs . . . Be careful you kids out there.
	2:01pm Mister Dobalina: The Spazz that haunts us.
	2:02pm davefromtoronto: and we still have the lunkhead set to look forward to!
	2:02pm Mostly Shookup: Denial of being in denial and hopelessly repeating failure is mentacide. Toxic dosage levels of blue pill can’t sustain ‘bliss of ignorance’ which is the whole point of the blue pill.
	2:04pm davefromtoronto: mentacide! who'd a thunk we'd learn a new word on this show!
	2:07pm P-90: That word “Naugahyde” pops up in the oddest places
	2:07pm Mostly Shookup: Naugahyde shout-out Yea!
	2:08pm Greg from ZONE 5: BOIN K-DOE BOIN!
	2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mescaleen, mentacide & too much herbal stimuluhs.
	2:08pm davefromtoronto: boin! there's another new word.
	2:08pm Mister Dobalina: Was just thinkin' about the stimuluhs..
	2:09pm Mostly Shookup: Scrabble anyone!?
	2:09pm davefromtoronto: is there a connection between naugahyde and nougat?
	🌮 2:09pm Bruce S.: Mentaside caused by too much daytime TV
	2:10pm davefromtoronto: mentaside is my new favorite word! i will use it in scrabble one day...
	🌮 2:11pm Mailman Tom: Bo Diddley, one of the giants of rock and roll!
	2:13pm davefromtoronto: big bill!
	🌮 2:13pm Mailman Tom: Waiting to hear some audio clips from the 1942 movie, Lady Gangster!
	🌮 2:13pm Bruce S.: Mentaside is like likeing Expendables 3 or something
	2:13pm Mostly Shookup: Bruce, I dumped the TV ten years ago. I had no idea that move would save my life. Even the radio is 24/7 fear porn propaganda so only have music left for audio entertainment. That’s why Amish don’t get Covid. They don’t have TVs.
	2:14pm Mister Dobalina: Rex, can you not play a bad song?
	2:14pm rx scabin: Excellent show today: cookin'.
	🌮 2:14pm Bruce S.: Hey Chicken Stuff Gooooooooooood

	2:17pm Mister Dobalina: I remember the first time I had some delicious chitlins...amazing stuff...slow grilled, crunchy goodness.
	2:18pm rx scabin: Words to live by.
	2:18pm Mister Dobalina: Stay country, ya'll.
	2:22pm medson: Doing business as Percy Helton! Smart move, I like it.
	2:22pm Mostly Shookup: The Divits?! What brainiac decided THAT was a good band name? (Probably Dave Divit)
	2:22pm Juke Joint Jonny: every kiss is shot from guns lol
	2:23pm Creature Boy: I followed Percy Helton on Instagram and all I got was this lousy tshirt
	🌮 2:23pm Bruce S.: The Divots did a show with the Warblers a few years ago
	🌮 2:25pm Bruce S.: this reminds me of the crusher a little
	2:25pm davefromtoronto: crater soda?
	2:25pm bobobob dublon Plasticland: @yeah Rex...i actually drank Gran Marnier with Bo Diddley. he poured it out of a huge bottle ..Marty Zivcos ballroom in Hartford while he told me stories bout him being deputized a sheriff..lovley guy
	2:25pm Mister Dobalina: Gonna havta clicky star fav this one.
	2:25pm Dominick: I want one!
	2:26pm Richard Whig: the crusher drinks crater soda!!
	2:26pm davefromtoronto: the crusher!
	2:27pm Richard Whig: I wanna talk to the wolfman!!!!
	2:27pm Doug in JC: AWWWOOOOOOOOOOO

	2:28pm davefromtoronto: yeah but he blew a huge endorsement deal with orange crush.
	2:28pm Juke Joint Jonny: Boy, the vom set is really pushing the limit today
	2:29pm rx scabin: The Bleaters, great name.
	🌮 2:30pm Mailman Tom: Percy Helton has a pretty good role in the 1948 movie, Larceny
	2:30pm davefromtoronto: bleaters are the GOAT's of lunkhead rock.
	2:30pm Mister Dobalina: MoRiss the MotoCicle rider!
	2:31pm Juke Joint Jonny: Nice one dave
	2:31pm Creature Boy: 5$ dollars goes to the first person who DOESN'T mention the YaRdBiRds
	🌮 2:31pm Bruce S.: Good one Dave
	2:31pm davefromtoronto: #flattered...
	2:32pm Juke Joint Jonny: You can put Certain Girl in your No Bad Versions of This Song file
	2:32pm Mostly Shookup: So many "What's Her Name" Songs...youhoo, DJ Station Manager Ken....
	2:33pm bobobob: @creature ...Ernie K Dough
	2:34pm Creature Boy: Cutting checks ova' here
	2:34pm Mostly Shookup: "The Swappers" Sounds like an STD lol
	2:34pm Creature Boy: Dig me , I'm givin out wings!
	2:34pm yer swingin neighbour: who's up for a key party??
	2:34pm P-90: Somehow I’ve managed to avoid seeing “The Swappers”. So far.
	2:35pm Juke Joint Jonny: Amphetamine version of Louie
	2:35pm davefromtoronto: i'd love to know how many versions of this song have been attempted.
	2:36pm davefromtoronto: it's gotta be one of the most covered songs ever!
	🌮 2:37pm Bruce S.: that Louie go home was really good
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: OK, there may have been a slight issue with getting all the LSD and moonshine home from the store. I had all the best intentions. Let's not play the blame game.
	2:38pm Maynard G: now yer Talkin!
	🌮 2:38pm Bruce S.: everyone over to Handy's House!
	2:38pm ?: "Louie Come Home" is the correct title
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: I do have broccoli rabe!
	2:39pm Mostly Shookup: "By some accounts, there have been 1,200 versions of "Louie Louie" recorded over the years, including recordings by Frank Zappa, Motorhead, the Psychotic Petunias"
	2:40pm Mostly Shookup: Handy, why yo eyes so red?
	2:41pm davefromtoronto: it's cool handy - maybe a murder trip wasn't such a good idea anyways...
	2:41pm solo mon: Yes to dry cereal! Love that song.
	2:41pm Katy_bar_the_door: Thee Headcoatees - Louis Riel www.youtube.com...
	2:43pm Creature Boy: The vocalist for the Kingsmen's version of Louie Louie sang the tune into a microphone dangling somewhere directly above his head. Talk about your awkward head positions & quirky deliveries
	2:43pm Greg from ZONE 5: Doin' the Switch over here, boss.
	2:43pm solo mon: Click click
	2:45pm Creature Boy: Jack Ely w the Kingsmen
