	9:18am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Jim the Poet @9:08 Happy birthday JtP!
	9:18am Handy Haversack: Happy birthday, Jim!
	9:18am Jim the Poet: This set has been amazing so far!!
	9:19am Zip7: Good article in Washington Post about the Oceanwide Plaza graffitti towers in LA. One reader wrote "If you don't own the canvas and the owner hasn't said you can use it, even if you are Picasso, you don't get to paint on it. It's that simple. You paint on it. You have taken something that is not yours. It's a crime." Best response: "Real estate corruption, bribery, money laundering are all crimes too, and they're what lead to this "canvas" in the first place. Those are much more destructive crimes to society. Spray paint on glass is easily cleaned. White color crime is much more far reaching."
	9:19am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: ↳ Song: "ancient sea ritual" by "pauline anna strom" great for painting!
	9:20am PaulRobeson1924: Would’nt take more than a set of keys to set my mind, my mind & my heart at ease

	9:31am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" Baobab! Oh yes yes!! Thanks Trouble!
	9:32am Robm: ↳ chresti @9:30 chresti how goes it with the rain?
	9:32am Alyssa: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:31 I second this sentiment!
	9:33am uselysses: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" Man, pirates are good choosers, except probably along career lines
	9:35am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" this is giving me Yoro Kery Goro - Mory vibes > guitar sound especially
	9:37am TuffGoose: Groooving
	9:37am chresti: ↳ Robm @9:32 Other than a leaky roof, okay. Have about a week to dry out before the next wave hits.

	10:13am HyperDose: ↳ Loni @10:08 But does one always have to fly by the seat of their pants? Surely there's a more comfortable position
	10:14am Ike: Sounds great!
	10:16am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:19am tom tom the pipers son: an eileen agar piece i had not seen before, prescient of isa genzken by 50-60 yrs www.metmuseum.org...

	10:27am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ike @10:14 Hey Ike, I was dipping around on the internet and randomly came across your avatar — www.imgur.com... 🐈
	10:29am The Hip Replacement: Would have guessed that this lovely piece by Jeffrey Alexander was something by Tara Jane O'Neil.
	10:35am samuel_henry: ↳ The Hip Replacement @10:29 <3 TJO

	10:41am TDK60: Sandy B! The freakfolk elder.
	10:43am tom tom the pipers son: the oud sounds to me to be tuned to sound guitar-ish
	10:45am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "coming together ( a song of faith)" by "sandy bull" Add more marimba and filter the vocals and you might get The Residents out of this
	10:46am Chief Guy: Got me dancing here. What a rythm.
	10:49am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ StringOFperils @10:45 but the residents would only title a song (song of faith) tongue in cheek...;)
	10:50am βrian: ↳ Song: "Chandernagor" by "Victor Nubla" Me gusta.
	10:50am samuel_henry: loving this whole show. i've bookmarked several of the artists to dig deeper into. thank you!

	10:54am love2laf: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:54 Don't despair, and hope your day goes well.
	10:55am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "lucky" by "Northern Picture Library" NORTHERN PICTURE LIBRARY!!!! /i have this rekkid!
	10:56am Handy Haversack: Thursdays at 11 seems to be the new time for DEI and antiracism meetings in my industry. It's the good fight, but it means I have to switch the Modern World to headphones and say my thanks early, Trouble, as I won't be on the board this next hour. So many thanks! Another brilliant time with you and all the Troubled.
	10:57am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 It's a very good fight, thank you Handy.
	10:57am duvignau: saludos trouble. es un dia soleado!
	10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 If it runs long, you might miss a good seat on the Subway. 🚇
	10:58am northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 i have a LGTBQ+ inclusivity meeting later today...(NYC is so refreshing as opposed to FL)
	10:59am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:58 Eep! Hold that door!
	10:59am Peter in SEA: Good morning Trouble and Thursday people!
	11:03am βrian: "Aujourd'hui nous sommes tous les oiseaux !"

	11:10am justinseeling: Completely entranced and scared out of my mind by "Our Share of Night" by Mariana Enríquez!
	11:11am money&pain: Butterfield8! Family by Natalia Ginzburg, Auburn Conference by Tom Piazza.
	11:11am Daniel: Trouble, did you read “the anomaly”? French author, forgot his name. Must read.
	11:12am money&pain: Fatale... very noir romance noir
	11:12am love2laf: Here's a weird one for you, Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Although it is Sci Fi, it is also a hard look at how hardwired humanity is to destroying itself and the world. Trigger warning: Giant spiders & ants & also mantis shrimp. Weird, and first of a trilogy, but it absolutely stands on its own.
	11:13am Ike: ↳ love2laf @11:12 I like that one. It's a little dry in spots, but has amazing concepts. I didn't find the sequel as interesting, though.
	11:14am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: A Spectre ,Haunting, on the comunist manifesto by China Mieville
	11:15am tom tom the pipers son: have just recieved the book "are you stupid"by mihai nadin which has positions i am not in 100% agreement with but has an "excellently " stupid quote from john kerry... "in america you have the right to be stupid andf you have the right to br disconnected from somebody else if you want to be."
	11:15am Trouble: kiley reid: such a fun age. come and get it is her new book
	11:16am love2laf: ↳ Ike @11:13 Good to know both that I'm not the only weirdo, and will lower my expectations for book 2. It's a long wait at the library and I might still buy it.
	11:17am βrian: ↳ Trouble @11:15 With links: Such a Fun Age (Kiley Reid.) search.worldcat.org... Come And Get It (Kiley Reid.) search.worldcat.org...
	11:17am northguineahills: i'm reading former wfmu dj, dj /rupture's (jace clayton), "Uproot, 21st Music and Digitial Culture".
	11:18am northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @11:17 uprootbook.com
	11:18am N'Lo: Ceci n’est pas Laissé Tomber les Filles!
	11:21am Ike: ↳ love2laf @11:16 I'm probably too judgmental. Some people loved it. What else is good lately? I'm also reading/rereading some Charles Stross.
	11:21am JaydiumCrass: Ello, Trouble and all present!
	11:22am The Mule: Arthur C Clark has a book called from Strength to Strength. I believe you would find this book inspiring. it puts past accomplishments into perspective while motivating you to look forward to maybe crazy new ones that you’ve never thought before.
	11:24am love2laf: ↳ Ike @11:21 John Scalzi's Starter Villain is a masterpiece as usual. I failed to take a screen shot of my fave description about multi millionaires.
	11:25am steveo: Hi Trouble -- wonderful to hear your show today;;;
	11:26am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Mimbreños" by "cochemea" kinda post isaac hayes vibe
	11:31am Polyus: ↳ Song: "reality" by "sen morimoto" I don't know why but this is kinda giving me an Annette Peacock vibe. Maybe it's these little computer speakers.
	11:31am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ike @11:21 I just finished reading everything by Aleksandar Hemon - highly recommended. Ben Lerner too.
	11:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:31 Sometimes I find an author I like and I just read all their work...
	11:33am money&pain: Leaving Atocha Station is still best Lerner I think.
	11:33am Andres: ↳ Song: "someone" by "the divine comedy" ❤️❤️❤️ The best!!!
	11:33am Trouble: so I am not in love with the lack of lyricism in the kiley reid books, but the big questions that she is talking about, and how she weaves it into the story make it pretty fascinating
	11:34am Trouble: merci@ steveo!
	11:34am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:33 I thought each one was better than the last... real growth and development IMO
	11:37am money&pain: I think they just got longer.
	11:37am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "someone" by "the divine comedy" this is quite grand. I like it
	11:37am money&pain: But Im a fan of short books.
	11:37am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:37 "Atocha" was the funniest for sure
	11:38am Charles in Chicago: "Topeka School" is pretty heavy
	11:39am JaydiumCrass: Marjoe by Steven Gaines. And everybody thought HE was messed up.
	11:39am money&pain: Jesus Son... The Idiot... The end of the story...
	11:39am Charles in Chicago: Maybe "10:14" is my fave
	11:43am money&pain: 10:04. My birthday.
	11:43am money&pain: And the clock point when you can go back t the future.
	11:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:43 Right, right. Thanks. ("10:14" is the sequel he hasn't written yet.)
	11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Trouble. Go, 14th Amendment!
	11:51am HyperDose: ↳ Song: "i got the" by "labi siffre" Dr. Dre was a genius to sample this
	11:52am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, Troubled friends, it's been great sitting with you all today.
	11:53am tom tom the pipers son: thanks, trouble...
	11:53am Victor Eremita: I'm reading You Dreamed of Empires, by Álvaro Enrigue, which opens on a great scene of one of Cortes's conquistadors trying to choke down turkey broth in Moctezuma's palace while seated between two priests, one wearing human skin as a cape and the other whose hair is soaked in sacrificial blood
	11:53am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "pode ficar" by "arto lindsay" i somehow missed this arto album... thanks trouble!
	11:55am Ochre Ogre: Thanks Trouble!
	11:56am ldbl: ↳ Victor Eremita @11:53 his previous work "Sudden Death" is also excellent!!
	11:57am Trouble: me too @Northguineahills. i bought it this weekend at not donut records in stanfordville ny.
	11:57am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today! see you next week...
	11:57am Victor Eremita: ↳ ldbl @11:56 I'll have to read that, too. Thanks!
	11:58am captain beef fart: Thanks, Trouble! I gub this show!
	11:59am StringOFperils: Thanks, Trouble!!!

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:18am Handy Haversack: Happy birthday, Jim!
	9:18am Jim the Poet: This set has been amazing so far!!
	9:19am Zip7: Good article in Washington Post about the Oceanwide Plaza graffitti towers in LA. One reader wrote "If you don't own the canvas and the owner hasn't said you can use it, even if you are Picasso, you don't get to paint on it. It's that simple. You paint on it. You have taken something that is not yours. It's a crime." Best response: "Real estate corruption, bribery, money laundering are all crimes too, and they're what lead to this "canvas" in the first place. Those are much more destructive crimes to society. Spray paint on glass is easily cleaned. White color crime is much more far reaching."
	9:19am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: ↳ Song: "ancient sea ritual" by "pauline anna strom" great for painting!
	9:20am PaulRobeson1924: Would’nt take more than a set of keys to set my mind, my mind & my heart at ease

	9:31am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" Baobab! Oh yes yes!! Thanks Trouble!
	9:32am Robm: ↳ chresti @9:30 chresti how goes it with the rain?
	9:32am Alyssa: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:31 I second this sentiment!
	9:33am uselysses: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" Man, pirates are good choosers, except probably along career lines
	9:35am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "utrus horas" by "Orchestra Baobab" this is giving me Yoro Kery Goro - Mory vibes > guitar sound especially
	9:37am TuffGoose: Groooving
	9:37am chresti: ↳ Robm @9:32 Other than a leaky roof, okay. Have about a week to dry out before the next wave hits.

	9:53am Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:52 can’t you tell them you have a important station to listen to?

	10:13am HyperDose: ↳ Loni @10:08 But does one always have to fly by the seat of their pants? Surely there's a more comfortable position
	10:14am Ike: Sounds great!
	10:16am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.

	10:43am tom tom the pipers son: the oud sounds to me to be tuned to sound guitar-ish
	10:45am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "coming together ( a song of faith)" by "sandy bull" Add more marimba and filter the vocals and you might get The Residents out of this
	10:46am Chief Guy: Got me dancing here. What a rythm.
	10:49am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ StringOFperils @10:45 but the residents would only title a song (song of faith) tongue in cheek...;)
	10:50am βrian: ↳ Song: "Chandernagor" by "Victor Nubla" Me gusta.

	10:56am Handy Haversack: Thursdays at 11 seems to be the new time for DEI and antiracism meetings in my industry. It's the good fight, but it means I have to switch the Modern World to headphones and say my thanks early, Trouble, as I won't be on the board this next hour. So many thanks! Another brilliant time with you and all the Troubled.
	10:57am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 It's a very good fight, thank you Handy.
	10:57am duvignau: saludos trouble. es un dia soleado!
	10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 If it runs long, you might miss a good seat on the Subway. 🚇

	11:11am Daniel: Trouble, did you read “the anomaly”? French author, forgot his name. Must read.
	11:12am money&pain: Fatale... very noir romance noir
	11:12am love2laf: Here's a weird one for you, Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Although it is Sci Fi, it is also a hard look at how hardwired humanity is to destroying itself and the world. Trigger warning: Giant spiders & ants & also mantis shrimp. Weird, and first of a trilogy, but it absolutely stands on its own.
	11:13am Ike: ↳ love2laf @11:12 I like that one. It's a little dry in spots, but has amazing concepts. I didn't find the sequel as interesting, though.
	11:14am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: A Spectre ,Haunting, on the comunist manifesto by China Mieville
	11:15am tom tom the pipers son: have just recieved the book "are you stupid"by mihai nadin which has positions i am not in 100% agreement with but has an "excellently " stupid quote from john kerry... "in america you have the right to be stupid andf you have the right to br disconnected from somebody else if you want to be."
	11:15am Trouble: kiley reid: such a fun age. come and get it is her new book
	11:16am love2laf: ↳ Ike @11:13 Good to know both that I'm not the only weirdo, and will lower my expectations for book 2. It's a long wait at the library and I might still buy it.
	11:17am βrian: ↳ Trouble @11:15 With links: Such a Fun Age (Kiley Reid.) search.worldcat.org... Come And Get It (Kiley Reid.) search.worldcat.org...
	11:17am northguineahills: i'm reading former wfmu dj, dj /rupture's (jace clayton), "Uproot, 21st Music and Digitial Culture".
	11:18am northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @11:17 uprootbook.com
	11:18am N'Lo: Ceci n’est pas Laissé Tomber les Filles!
	11:21am Ike: ↳ love2laf @11:16 I'm probably too judgmental. Some people loved it. What else is good lately? I'm also reading/rereading some Charles Stross.
	11:21am JaydiumCrass: Ello, Trouble and all present!
	11:22am The Mule: Arthur C Clark has a book called from Strength to Strength. I believe you would find this book inspiring. it puts past accomplishments into perspective while motivating you to look forward to maybe crazy new ones that you’ve never thought before.
	11:24am love2laf: ↳ Ike @11:21 John Scalzi's Starter Villain is a masterpiece as usual. I failed to take a screen shot of my fave description about multi millionaires.
	11:25am steveo: Hi Trouble -- wonderful to hear your show today;;;
	11:26am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Mimbreños" by "cochemea" kinda post isaac hayes vibe
	11:31am Polyus: ↳ Song: "reality" by "sen morimoto" I don't know why but this is kinda giving me an Annette Peacock vibe. Maybe it's these little computer speakers.
	11:31am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ike @11:21 I just finished reading everything by Aleksandar Hemon - highly recommended. Ben Lerner too.
	11:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:31 Sometimes I find an author I like and I just read all their work...
	11:33am money&pain: Leaving Atocha Station is still best Lerner I think.
	11:33am Andres: ↳ Song: "someone" by "the divine comedy" ❤️❤️❤️ The best!!!
	11:33am Trouble: so I am not in love with the lack of lyricism in the kiley reid books, but the big questions that she is talking about, and how she weaves it into the story make it pretty fascinating
	11:34am Trouble: merci@ steveo!
	11:34am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:33 I thought each one was better than the last... real growth and development IMO
	11:37am money&pain: I think they just got longer.
	11:37am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "someone" by "the divine comedy" this is quite grand. I like it
	11:37am money&pain: But Im a fan of short books.
	11:37am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:37 "Atocha" was the funniest for sure
	11:38am Charles in Chicago: "Topeka School" is pretty heavy
	11:39am JaydiumCrass: Marjoe by Steven Gaines. And everybody thought HE was messed up.
	11:39am money&pain: Jesus Son... The Idiot... The end of the story...
	11:39am Charles in Chicago: Maybe "10:14" is my fave
	11:43am money&pain: 10:04. My birthday.
	11:43am money&pain: And the clock point when you can go back t the future.
	11:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ money&pain @11:43 Right, right. Thanks. ("10:14" is the sequel he hasn't written yet.)
	11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Trouble. Go, 14th Amendment!
	11:51am HyperDose: ↳ Song: "i got the" by "labi siffre" Dr. Dre was a genius to sample this
	11:52am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, Troubled friends, it's been great sitting with you all today.
	11:53am tom tom the pipers son: thanks, trouble...
	11:53am Victor Eremita: I'm reading You Dreamed of Empires, by Álvaro Enrigue, which opens on a great scene of one of Cortes's conquistadors trying to choke down turkey broth in Moctezuma's palace while seated between two priests, one wearing human skin as a cape and the other whose hair is soaked in sacrificial blood
	11:53am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "pode ficar" by "arto lindsay" i somehow missed this arto album... thanks trouble!
	11:55am Ochre Ogre: Thanks Trouble!
	11:56am ldbl: ↳ Victor Eremita @11:53 his previous work "Sudden Death" is also excellent!!
	11:57am Trouble: me too @Northguineahills. i bought it this weekend at not donut records in stanfordville ny.
	11:57am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today! see you next week...
	11:57am Victor Eremita: ↳ ldbl @11:56 I'll have to read that, too. Thanks!
	11:58am captain beef fart: Thanks, Trouble! I gub this show!
