	9:59pm Matt from New Orleans: Good to see you’ve raised $271 before the marathon even started. What is your goal? I think 40 of that is from me as I split my SWL three ways.

	10:13pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ Matt from New Orleans @10:08 Matt, all the streams are pumping out the jams. Sorry to say, I think the problem is local to you.
	10:15pm Matt from New Orleans: It was Doug. I turned my phone off and back on and it’s working. 🤷‍♂️ Odd. I was able to use simple radio app without issue but the WFMU app wouldn’t work so it wasn’t the internet per se just some weird bug on my iPhone that resolved itself.
	10:18pm Doug Schulkind: Just as long as you're getting your precious vacay, Kris!
	10:20pm Kris Holmes: I did book a dentist appointment for that week, not sure that counts ha!
	🥁 10:20pm WLSClark: Rivieras did this on their 2nd LP which was a year before this HIT, but AFTER this hit was actually recorded!
	10:21pm Kris Holmes: Saving my resources to hopefully go back to visit NZ in July if all goes to plan

	🥁 10:31pm WLSClark: El Chicago so awesome. I LOVE Tell Her She's Lovely especially tho.
	10:32pm Matt from New Orleans: You should look up my bud Vincent The Soul Chef Jason. He’s based in the Dallas area now and likes to go digging. I met him through Larry Grogan.

	10:36pm Matt from New Orleans: ↳ JtotheK @10:34 If you’re on IG, his handle is chefscookin. Think on Twitter too. I’m not on either.
	🥁 10:37pm JtotheK: I should know more in 2 weeks or so if the conference is a 'go' or not. But yes, if I could swing it with schedule that would be fun!

	🥁 10:48pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WLSClark @10:43 Nah! They had already eaten on the way. We're going out to dinner tomorrow night. I made a Green Chef meal and dad had a bite of my fish. That's all he wanted. I fed Mom popcorn! That's all she wanted. Haha
	🥁 10:49pm Candy-O'67: They had an 8- hour road trip today. So, they're tired
	🥁 10:53pm WLSClark: ↳ Candy-O'67 @10:49 That's a killer drive for old folks like me. I had a 9 hour one at Thanksgiving and it was grueling for 66 year old.
	🥁 10:54pm WLSClark: Chitown SYL!
	🥁 11:00pm WR: Hi Kris and folks. Have been listening but was crawling around rerouting power cables post electrical work here. Going to chill and listen a bit now.
	🥁 11:01pm WR: ↳ Song: "Hanky Panky" by "Tommy James & The Shondells" when I heard this track, it really triggered garage band memories.
	🥁 11:01pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WLSClark @10:53 Totally! My dad is 80 and mom is 76!

	🥁 11:05pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WLSClark @11:03 Haha, yes! Night, Clark!
	🥁 11:05pm WR: ↳ Candy-O'67 @11:02 Some snow yes, was a bit messy for morning commute. I work from home and have been so busy I only saw a bit out the window this morning. DoctorJazz had to communte from his home in central New Jersey to Staten Island, didn't yet ask him how it was.
	🥁 11:07pm Candy-O'67: ↳ WR @11:05 I saw some friends flying from CA to Israel and they had to change planes in NYC. They were showing them trying vto de-ice the plane before they took off for Israel.
	11:12pm Matt from New Orleans: Hey WR
	11:14pm Matt from New Orleans: Both my parents are 77 and there’s no way they’d drive that much in one day Candy
	🥁 11:17pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Matt from New Orleans @11:14 My parents don't do it often, but they are young for their age. My dad drives quite a bit still.
	11:23pm Matt from New Orleans: That story was so bizarre and the chance to actually move the records successfully for even a fraction of what their worth without raising suspicions was minimal so someone sociopath hiring goons to steal them to add to their collection was what came to mind as insane as that was
	11:25pm Kris Holmes: ↳ Matt from New Orleans @11:23 Yep, those records aren't publicly getting sold easily at all
	🥁 11:30pm JtotheK: stepping away from the laptop - enjoyed the show - thanks Kris, cheers everyone!
