	🛒 12:02pm Crafty: Hi UM! hi HDT shoppers everywhere!
	12:02pm Dean: Buddy of mine just turned me onto this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIV8lIscNCU Like The Stooges, The Dolls, Cheap Trick? You'll like the tune. The video is stupid, but videos tend to be stupid. Kinda like the combine harvester segment, though.
	12:02pm rw: Hey hey.

	12:03pm unpopularfred: greetings hinksters, got my eye on you
	🛒 12:04pm (Mr) Bill: Five years between common codes is a pretty good run, Unk. You’re seizing the opportunity to do good OTC drugs, I hope.
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Doug! TDK! Crafty! Dean! rw! Stanley! bradford! wenzo! Roberto! Bill!
	🛒 12:05pm Alvy Singer: Hi, UM! No tariffs on Hinky Dinky Time! :D
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @12:02 Thanks!
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: I wonder if I can sync the gif to the Wilhelm Scream.
	12:05pm Pedro in Arlington: Make Calypso Huge Again. American school kids need to watch annually Sir Lancelot in the 1947 Burt Lancaster powerhouse, "Brute Force."
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	12:06pm spodiodi: Greetings UM and Hinky Dinky folk!
	12:06pm johnk77: peace & respect to selecter limbo song & dance from tobago
	12:06pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Limbo" by "Lord Tickler with The Jamaican Calypso... How low will they go?
	12:06pm Uncle Michael: john! spodi! Pedro!
	🛒 12:06pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "Limbo" by "Lord Tickler with The Jamaican Calypso... In today’s U.S.A., Limbaugh, Limbaugh, Limbaugh I see.
	12:11pm chresti: Babba bee bow yow Dinkykins!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: chresti!
	12:13pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Loved One" by "Mills Hotsy Totsy Gang (feat. Bix ... Hotsy totsy!
	12:14pm Dean: I used to live next door to a bar just outside Berkeley, the Hotsy Totsy. It was once a genuine dive bar, but has since been, shall we say, gentrified? Still, a fun watering hole.
	12:18pm Gerry from Miami: Howdy to you, Uncle Michael! Sprechen sie VOUT-O-REE-NEE? Always been fascinated by SLIM GAILLARD's "invented" language. I believe parts of his "dictionafy" are available on-line.
	12:18pm chresti: ↳ Dean @12:14 Hmm wonder if my Dad ever went there when he lived in Berkeley (before mom moved up there)
	12:19pm Gerry from Miami: DICTIONAFY?? Just a typo. Sorry!
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: To misquote Mario Savio from the Berkeley Free Speech Movement '...there are times when the doom scrolling makes you so sick at heart, you must put your bodies on the gears of the machine and demand a return to the days of mindless pleasure...' Okay, give me a waffle and a slurpee, so I can stuff my mouth and boogie!
	12:22pm DJ Guin: my contacts cannot transition into sunglasses, hence i do not wear em
	12:23pm chresti: Listen to your eyeglasses?
	12:24pm TDK60: I'm sorry you're feeling sick, DJ UM. And I can't help with contact lens logistics; don't wear 'em. I know lots of other things. Like........
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Franco! DJ Brak!
	12:25pm adamdoesit: Hello Uncle Michael and Hinky Dinky Explosionarini! I find contacts too intellectually challenging, so it's still glasses for me.
	12:25pm Marie in Chicago: Hi UM, hi All, sounding gooood. Hope you feel better soon. Good reason to relax
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: adam!
	12:25pm chresti: I tried and failed contact lenses
	12:25pm Alex In Downers Grove: Bottom line is that the multi-focal contacts did not work for me the same way the progressive multi-focal eyeglasses do. I simply stopped using contacts altogether. I just wear eyeglasses and I have prescription goggles for swimming. I plan to get additional perscription goggles for other outdoor activities.
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	12:26pm johnk77: ↳ Dean @12:14 thank u dean heading to north bay end of may will try to stop by & check out
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Alex!
	12:26pm johnk77: still have evolved only as far as separate reading & distance glasses plus distance sunglasses
	12:28pm TheDerek: I have Safety glasses that are bifocal & they are a life saver
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Hypothetically, bifocal contacts would let wear whatever sunglasses I prefer. I've bever tried contacts and don't know if I'd even tolerate them.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Derek!
	12:29pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Weather Report Suite>" by "The Grateful Dead" I've never worn contacts, but I believe they work the same way my progressive glasses work. The strength of the prescription varies from the top of the lens to the bottom, and you see neerer or farer by looking through the top or the bottom of the lens. It takes getting used to, but that's how I use my glasses. (Always happy to hear some live Dead)
	12:30pm johnk77: carol has progressive glasses she loves just wears sunglasses on top when necessary
	12:30pm northguineahills: UM!
	12:30pm TheDerek: ↳ Song: "Weather Report Suite>" by "The Grateful Dead" Never heard this version, I think it's the best version yet
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: ngh!
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ TheDerek @12:30 Lots of wonderful stuff from this '74 Wall of Sound tour.
	12:32pm johnk77: cody band opened some wos gigs
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: That's some real pickin'!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @12:32 I know a guy from these parts that was on the Cody road crew back in the day.
	12:34pm johnk77: just thinking wonder if joe kerr nrps then mgr helped george get those?
	12:36pm johnk77: twitch streetview
	12:37pm Dean: @johnk77: By all means, do! It's at San Pablo and Garfield in Albany, just north of Berkeley. Nearby you'll also find Club Mallard and the Ivy Room, both old standby bars. Ivy Room has live acts most nights. While you're in town, take note of the Well Fargo bank in El Cerrito, on the east side of San Pablo, north of Garfield and the Hotsy Totsy. It sits where a marvelous jazz nightclub used to operate way back in the day, Hambone Kelly's. There are decent live recordings from the venue by Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band.
	12:37pm StringOFperils: ↳ johnk77 @12:36 A snowless vista. It should look like that here by early April.
	12:38pm StringOFperils: Hello, UM.
	12:38pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" man, this is a slam bam thank you jam!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: SOp!
	12:40pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:33 I remember when High Times did an Op-ed on Bob Weir being possibly the worst rhythm guitar ever, an opinion I share, & the flood of hate mail was so enormous they had to clear out an area of one of the back rooms just to hold all of them & hire people just to read them all
	12:41pm Gerry from Miami: BOB WEIR is really getting a vocal workout on this tune by the DEAD! Got names of his female back-up singers? And would you listen to ol' JER strummin' like no one else could! LESH and the drummers are in a tight groove as well. SUPERB!
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @12:41 That would be Donna Godchaux, band member, singing.
	12:42pm johnk77: first moved to berkeley 1970 lived also in north oakland, novato, & south novato, woodland hills left ca for good 1984 except briefer working in entertainment biz & pleasure visits ramrod visited my carshop in about 1976 w/mickey & i did talk to jeralyn a lot back then
	12:44pm Gerry from Miami: Only one back-up singers? My ears deceive me. Sounded like two.
	12:44pm StringOFperils: ↳ TheDerek @12:40 At least they never ran out of papers!
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @12:44 I think Jerry was singing too.
	12:45pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" vunderbag
	🛒 12:46pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" I speak only for myself, but by the time this was recorded Jerry Garcia was playing a custom (Wolf or Tiger or what ever the hell it was...) made me realize gear is not everything, but it's a lot. To my ears, when he was playing an SG or Strat (69-71) his playing was unsurpassed. My humble opinion, but there you go.
	12:46pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks, UM! Must be Donna AND Jerry!
	12:47pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @12:40 really? wow, sounds good to me. But the lead guitarist is Jerry Garcia, right? (that's who I was talkin' about)
	12:47pm johnk77: Jerilyn Lee Brandelius i love mickey and he helped norton & john mcfee & babatunde & others whatever jerry's guitar was likely alembic worked on it
	12:47pm TheDerek: ↳ StringOFperils @12:44 I think alot of them were written on grocery bags(before plastic) & postcards written in succession
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: The guitars Franco speaks of were made by Doug Irwin, with whom I had some casual dealings. www.irwin-guitars.com
	12:50pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:47 Deadheads will tell you THE only lead guitarist
	12:50pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @12:47 I liked Jerylyn's book.
	12:51pm leshwatt: Escaping through the lily fields?
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: lw!
	12:51pm leshwatt: How are ya Uncle?
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: ↳ leshwatt @12:51 a hair under the weather...it happens. thanks for asking
	12:52pm leshwatt: Thanks for soldiering on!
	12:54pm TDK60: He's carefully monitoring the Dead on a long jam. Maybe gussy up the studio, find Lucas, etc?
	12:54pm asheville jon: Hippie noise!
	12:55pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:47 Sorry if that came across condescending, your comment just made me remember that. That Op-ed piece was written in '95 & that I actually remebered19 years later is shocking
	🛒 12:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Uncle Michael @12:49 Yesterday I listened to Death Don't Have No Mercy, an instrumental outtake from the sessions for their first album. Jerry was playing a Guild Starfire, most likely closed mic'd. All I can say is WOW!
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: jon!
	12:58pm johnk77: jerilyn was very cool & down-to-earth i just learned irwin was in-house luthier for alembic i only knew bear among alembic folks
	12:59pm TheDerek: ↳ Song: "The Other One>" by "The Grateful Dead" The Dead in a Prog rock moment?
	12:59pm TDK60: I knew Lucas would show up for a Gratefuls jam. Yep.
	12:59pm johnk77: lucas cam multiples
	1:00pm asheville jon: UM!
	1:01pm Marie in Chicago: I think, eventually, there will a Grateful Dead tidal wave on WFMU cuz it really is pretty "jazzy" and jazz has been increasing on the airwaves...
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:01 I'll keep the pilot light lit.
	1:03pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @12:55 Oh, Derek, not at all!! @) What you said is very interesting and surprising to me. There really has been a lot of Dead dissing/dismissing over the years (myself having been kind of guilty of that)
	1:04pm James Douglas: UM it does not get much better than this. Thanks!
	1:04pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:01 GTDR has some choice DJs that play some really obscure Jazz I would have never heard anywhere else.
	1:04pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:03 kewl
	1:05pm johnk77: @um did u ever meet charlie kelly invented mountain bike/roadie guy
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Weir is very iconoclastic as a rhythm player. It might be his dyslexia. It might be that he mostly emulates chord-comping jazz pianists.
	1:05pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @1:04 yeah, me too. And I am finding that I like some styles of jazz that I didn't really like so much before
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @1:05 nossir
	1:05pm sinner: sinnerjam
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: James!
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: sinner!
	1:06pm johnk77: if u get the chance go for it he is associated with a bicycle museum in marin county i think
	1:07pm leshwatt: Weir is an underrated guitar player. As an aspiring guitar player he is to me, anyway.
	1:07pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:03 Oh I was anti-Dead in High School. I hated DeadHeads & anything tie-dye. My brother was the one who got me to chill out on that(he didn't care much for deadheads either) & played me some stuff by them that was out of the park
	🛒 1:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TheDerek @1:07 This is true. Music obsession in general creates strong biases. The older I get, the more I'm able to hear things without the cultural baggage and pier group kneejerk pontification clouding my ability to enjoy myself.
	1:14pm winston legthigh: hi uncle michael and hinky dinks!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: winston!
	1:15pm northguineahills: I might have saw the Dead four months before Jerry died, but that was out of curiosity. it wouldn't be until i was 23 that i started to come around to the dead (and that was from john oswald's remix/collage, of live dark stars, "greyfolded".
	1:15pm Roberto: It's a tough time, UM. Those of us with even the tiniest granule of empathy are verging on avoiding the news altogether. In any case, I would avoid any mainstream sources, or, as the kids are calling it these days, the "legacy media."
	1:17pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @1:15 The "legacies" decided a while back that softballing their tRump coverage was in their best interests. It's largely how we've gotten where we are now.
	1:17pm TheDerek: Unkie, I no longer listen to the news. Social media no longer served the purpose I needed it to & just cancelled it. I'm doing fine without it. You are not alone in your needing to get away from it
	1:18pm johnk77: some of us lived thru nixon without moving to canada fixing my teeth & trying to survive trump2 still love canada
	1:19pm winston legthigh: ↳ Roberto @1:15 exactly. not interested in what either side has to say until there is discernable improvement.
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:15 remarkable record...I had know idea it reached outside of the bubble.
	1:19pm johnk77: agree news reality phildickian
	1:23pm Roberto: I've been following independent Substacks. At least they're not owned by right-wing megalomaniacs.
	1:23pm Dean: One need not be a "kid" to have recognized ages ago that mainstream news is essentially class propaganda. Thank you, johnk77, for reminding us of Nixon. (Really, I'm not being sarcastic.) We live too much in the present, and it makes us feel that our circumstances are so much more dire than those of the past, which are so easy to forget, to sublimate.
	🛒 1:24pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "I'm a Mover" by "Buffalo" Show is sounding terrific UM! Excellent choice btw!
	1:24pm TheDerek: ↳ johnk77 @1:19 Funny how alot of book reviewers calling Man in the High Tower, at the time of publication, the most paranoid speculative fiction ever printed.....wonder if any of those reviewers are still alive
	🛒 1:25pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Roberto @1:23 So glad that you mentioned Substacks. I subscribed to two or three new ones this past week.
	1:25pm Roberto: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:25 YEAHH BOII
	1:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:19 I was going through my plunderphonics initiation and stumbled onto that beauty.
	1:27pm TheDerek: ↳ Dean @1:23 Warren G. Harding is still considered by historians the worst President ever.
	1:27pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Dean @1:23 I kind of started realizing/seeing that in my 20s as I was reading the NYT more regularly. It was disillusioning and disappointing.
	1:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @1:07 Yeah, they were definitely not seen as cool in some circles, eg, punky
	1:29pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:28 It's all about in-group/out-group creation to use social psychology terms
	🛒 1:30pm Brian in UK: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 Al Stewart wrote a song about him on 'Past, Present & Future'.
	1:30pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "I'm a Mover" by "Buffalo" no springfield involved...
	1:31pm leshwatt: Sounded a bit like The Other One
	1:31pm Marie in Chicago: Wish I could chat more but I'm super busy at work (and getting ready to go to India--I fly out tomorrow and I'm a little stressed about it but get more excited as I knock out my last tasks to be ready). Back to work for me @(
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:30 Aussie's, but no Rick.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: Good luck, Marie! Have a good trip.
	1:33pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Flying Anchors" by "Art" no bears involved here....
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:33 No cows, Henry or otherwise.
	1:35pm adamdoesit: I finally cancelled the Times this week. I knew this was an empty gesture that would change nothing, but I couldn't stand to keep paying them $12/month to read "unorthodox" and "audacious" instead of "illegal" and "coup."
	1:38pm Roberto: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 tRump sees this as a dare.
	1:38pm Dean: Just this morning I was thinking of ways to mock the NYT. It's not hard, I know. But: Five Minutes That Will Make You Despise The New York Times came to mind.
	1:38pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M
	🛒 1:39pm DjLorraine: Yes😘
	🛒 1:39pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 No longer, I’m afraid: presidentialgreatnessproject.com .
	1:39pm StringOFperils: ↳ adamdoesit @1:35 Yeah, that's getting to be a bit too much in global responses to IT, in general.
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: coel! DJL!
	1:41pm Roberto: ↳ adamdoesit @1:35 Exactly. They seem to be having trouble finding the appropriate descriptors for this ferkakte meshugos. Speaking of which, "ferkakte meshugos" would definitely be appropriate.
	1:45pm Roberto: "Inane" "Insane" "Pathetic" "Blatantly unconstitutional" "Impractical" It's really not that hard.
	1:45pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:31 Thanks, UM!
	1:46pm Marie in Chicago: I would characterize the NYT's perspective as white male bourgeois
	1:46pm adamdoesit: ↳ Roberto @1:41 If I saw FERKAKTE MESHUGOS in their largest type above the fold, I'd consider resubscribing. Dean, I can picture the accompanying primary-colored silhouette animation of a reader opening the paper and yakking all over it.
	1:47pm StringOFperils: Press like this, decidedly left-biased as it may be, is closer to directly addressing the depth of the dire predicament that everybody's in. www.theguardian.com...
	1:47pm Marie in Chicago: It's like they want to support the system but when one party in a 2-party system has put democracy aside... time to speak bluntly
	1:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Ain't No Fun (Waiting 'round to Be a Millionaire)... kickin ass and takin names!
	1:48pm efd: ↳ Song: "Ain't No Fun (Waiting 'round to Be a Millionaire)... Bon!
	1:48pm Roberto: ↳ adamdoesit @1:46 "tRump Is Still an Irredeemable Schmuck" by Roberto
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: It ain't no fun waiting 'round to string up billionaires.
	1:49pm Dean: Best newspaper ever must be the Dacron Republican-Democrat. Example headline in progressively tinier type: Powder Room Prowler Strikes Anew Two Dacron Women Feared Missing in Volcanic Disaster Japan Destroyed Thank you, National Lampoon.
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:48 efd! (drummin' at hoof?)
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: Shall we get our choogle on now? Yes, we shall...
	1:50pm efd: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:49 I am! And on your song, to boot!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:50 FINALLY!
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:50 woot!
	🛒 1:51pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ StringOFperils @1:47 Right said! The Guardian is my go-to source in the legacy media.
	1:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Suicide City" by "Lee Morgan" Nice!!!!
	1:57pm Polyus: ↳ Song: "Suicide City" by "Lee Morgan" Who is the drummer here? They're sorta good.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Polyus @1:57 Billy Higgins.
	1:58pm Dean: Dr. UM
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @1:58 ...but I play one on the radio.
	1:59pm Dean: rim shot
	2:03pm efd: funny coincidence, I'm at my volunteer gig on Wednesdays in the middle of the day!
	2:04pm Marie in Chicago: I heard some positive news this morning about how the courts held up during the first term and seem likely to again--so many different kinds of suits filed over the past week. It was a segment on WNYC (the Brian Lehrer Show) with a law professor. I recommend it
	2:05pm bobopop dublon p land: while writing an article on David Murry Octet live at UWM Milwaukee..I got to meet one favorite drummers ..his name was Billy Higgins
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: bobopop! David Murray did some nice stuff with the Grateful Dead songbook.
	2:08pm Dean: Phil Collins!
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @2:08 yup
	🛒 2:09pm (Mr) Bill: Encouraging. Thank you.
	2:10pm Roberto: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:04 They tried flooding the zone in 2017 and for the most part, they failed. The main concern this time is that they're more prepared and more deranged.
	2:11pm efd: ↳ Song: "The Planets" by "Flaming Youth" Phil Collins?!
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @2:11 Yes.
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Listen to him sing now!
	2:12pm Dean: Now play a track from Quiet World's The Road and I'll interject, "Steve Hackett!"
	2:13pm Marie in Chicago: Yeah, I hear you. It's a serious threat. And we shall see but people and organizations are starting to take actions against it. The opposition has just begun. And, it looks kind of positive from a legal perspective... After 2 years I think (pray) we will at least have a check in the House of Reps with a Democratic majority. I have to say, personally, I can't believe so many people voted for Chump and to my mind they are either ignorant or dumb so my faith in the electorate is not great, which really sucks
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @2:12 And if I play "My White Bicycle" by Tomorrow?
	2:15pm Dean: Followed by Charterhouse Choral Society, "Take This Heart," and I'm all like, "Mike Rutherford! Anthony Phillips!" Steve Howe! Free association.
	2:16pm Roberto: But enough about f-face. MUSIC, PLZ!
	2:18pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:13 The worry in that is that this IS what the people want, enough to actually make this so. And that isn't going to magically go away. It's that loss of faith in the institutions of civilisation as we've known it that deeply concern me. Trump is a festering boil that's a symptom of a cancer riddling the entire body politic.
	2:21pm TDK60: Hi String-o. Sorry Sinclair Lewis, it did happen here.
	2:21pm adamdoesit: ↳ StringOFperils @2:18 Pustulously well put, SOp.
	2:24pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:18 Yeah, ugghhh. I think they want some of it... and they are ignorant of the reality of various aspects of government and foreign affairs, etc. And, unfortunately, if he sinks the ship (and loses their support) we all suffer. But other people have tried to be like him and they didn't;t get the support like DeSantis... I think without Chump this wouldn't have been possible but the forces behind him are strong...
	2:26pm doctorjazz: Back from dog walk, been listening ot the walk.
	2:27pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... Not mincing words on this one.
	2:27pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... beauteous
	🛒 2:28pm DjLorraine: Circulatory whip is good for you
	2:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... Like this! (Lumceford was a star in the Big Band Era, not played or remembered much any more)
	2:30pm RevWaldo: Ark 2 was that post-apocalyptic show on CBS Saturday Mornings... for kids!
	2:30pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:24 Yeah, its' sad. They themselves stand to get so hurt, or worse.
	2:31pm StringOFperils: At any rate, there's music. Thank goodness for that.
	2:32pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "This World Over" by "XTC" love this
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: Waldo!
	2:34pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "This World Over" by "XTC" The best band from Swindon. I think.
	2:34pm Roberto: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:24 I thank science he's old and feeble.
	2:34pm StringOFperils: ↳ TDK60 @2:34 Ha ha ha.
	2:35pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:30 totally.
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Justin Hayward and Gilbert O'Sullivan are both from Swindon!
	2:36pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Roberto @2:34 Yazzzz, we can hope that he fails noticeably visibly, which he seems to be doing. And, a lot of his supporters are also old....
	2:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till the End of the World" by "Jim Reeves" Nice jazzy guitar comping!
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: I'm excited about my impending ramen noodles. I'm not that hard to please.
	2:37pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TDK60 @2:34 Go Swindon!!!!!
	2:37pm TDK60: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:35 Oh, Hayward, eh? I thought the Moody Blues were all from Birmingham. Brummies."
	2:38pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 that sounds yummy. I like mine with a lot of green onions, which I believe help fight colds, and, prolly kill a lot of germs
	2:39pm StringOFperils: Lots of scallions are good if you're moody and alone again.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:38 Might doctor it up with some green onions, sesame oil, ginger and red pepper flakes...
	2:40pm adamdoesit: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 What's your preferred ramen, UM? I favor Shin for the dry kind, or Sun Noodle when I want to get fancy. Marie and SOp, agree, green onions are essential. But sometimes I'll just drop in a wad of kimchi instead.
	2:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @2:37 I can't find a credit for the guitar player on the Jim Reeves track, but Chet Atkins was producer, could be him playing (but can't find a credit).
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: ↳ adamdoesit @2:40 Whatever shiny package at Costco catches my eye.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: I'm making a pretty serious gumbo tomorrow.
	2:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 ramen's the bomb if you hook 'em up. i add so much stuff to ramen that it's almost too big a meal.
	2:44pm Gerry from Miami: Aren't XTC from Swindon?
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Song: "Tomorrow Drop Dead" by "The Fraternal Order of th... This is Andrew Gold. I'm not lying to you!
	2:45pm doctorjazz: I got some frozen Ramen noodles at an Asian grocery, company Shirakiku. Have been good when I've used them (get my Japanese recipes from website Just One Cookbook-great Japanese style Chicken Curry)
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @2:44 HELLO!
	2:45pm Marie in Chicago: Isn't it interesting that 2 people came here from other countries, became ultra rich, bought media companies, and exerted an outsized influence on politics, swerving things to the right?
	2:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @2:40 that really sounds like "da bomb"
	2:47pm Dean: You're referring, Marie, to Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson?
	2:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:45 I'm sure the reverse has happened all over the place, post 1945.
	2:48pm leshwatt: Ramen? Ooh now I’m rethinking my dinner of popcorn mixed with cheetos
	2:48pm Dean: My bad. Franklin was born here, wasn't he? I seem to remember Milk Street...somewhere.
	2:49pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Dean @2:47 ha ha ha--no, but did they come here from other countries and swerve things to the right?
	2:49pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:47 hm, I do not know...
	2:50pm doctorjazz: I read an interesting statistic in Heather Cox Richardson's newsletter this morning-Tesla cars have twice the fatality rate than the average for all cars. This is who everything is being handed over to...
	2:50pm Dean: And Jefferson, too, was born and bred American! I should have my bar card withdrawn.
	2:50pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:47 I think other countries might have more rules about who can buy media
	2:50pm doctorjazz: Digging the set, UM!
	2:51pm Gerry from Miami: Sorry, TDK60! Didn't see your mention of XTC's being from Swindon. The only time I had a chance to catch them---at the Hollywood Palladium in LA on the ""English Settlement" tour--- Andy had another one of his stagefright incidents and the concert was cancelled. No opening act either!
	2:51pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... My JAM!
	2:51pm Marie in Chicago: And I believe Musk-like bought Tesla after all the hard science had been worked out. Like, he's not some kind of genius, maybe just a good businessman?
	2:52pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:50 The USA has been a very busy beaver re-arranging other countries. 'Buying' foreign media might not be entirely overt. So much goes on back-stage, it's quite amazing.
	2:52pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... LLLLLLLOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!
	2:52pm TDK60: I don't think that a move to the right is just up to two personalities. Even ones with much power and influence. It's a combination of reactionary forces--religious, social, commercial, political. Big capital. Big oil. Etc.
	2:53pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @2:50 I internally questioned that stat, but they've certainly proven deadly to the nation. When you see a Tesla, raise your middle finger.
	🛒 2:53pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ TDK60 @2:52 And big, big falsehoods.
	2:53pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... This is my go-to track whenever I get laid off from a job.
	2:54pm Marie in Chicago: But the facts are the facts and I hold that Bush Cheney (2x if you could believe it) would not have occurred without Fox. Trump 1 would not have occurred w.o Fox. And Chump 2 would not have occurred without Musks' money and X.
	🛒 2:55pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Roberto @2:53 Do you sing it to your employer as you leave?
	2:55pm northguineahills: thanks, UM! tre fun!
	2:56pm Dean: Lou Rawls & George Harrison, All Things In Time Must Pass, "You'll Never Dig Another Love Like Mine."
	🛒 2:56pm Crafty: Thank you UM!❤ great show!
	2:56pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:54 It's true, Retched Rupert's alternate reality machine has been running for decades now, with no sign of slowing down.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: Have a wild weekend, everyone!
	2:56pm leshwatt: Thanks Uncle have a great weekend!
	🛒 2:56pm bradford: Many thanks, Uncle Michael!
	🛒 2:57pm (Mr) Bill: Multi-thanks for the doomscrolling break, UM. May I be excused a bit early to call my senators?
	2:57pm StringOFperils: You think it's over, but it's snot......thanks UM!
	🛒 2:57pm Alvy Singer: Thanks so much UM! Hope you start to feel better.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: The media environment leans heavily right wing (Fox, podcasters, radio broadcasts). Republicans have been saying that Democrats are demons, taking your hard earned money, giving it to those "others". Reagan campaigned on how bad the government is. It goes back even further with Repubilcans (Nixon's Southern strategy, for instance0.
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:56 can't we just have a reasonable weekend for once?
	2:57pm AMYGDALA: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... Good one! Amazing how a tune can send you back to another time. I was mere 'yute'; always loved this one. Great show, joined way late today though. Good weekend to one and all!
	2:57pm doctorjazz: Thanks, UM, fun show!
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Thanks, UM! Speedy gumbo-enabled recovery. cøel, man, what I would give for one of those.
	2:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the fine show, UM. Get better.
	2:58pm Roberto: ↳ (Mr) Bill @2:55 I sang along to it at my farewell meeting.
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @2:56 I despise Rupert Murdoch. I actually started writing a one-man musical show about him called "RUPERT!"
	2:59pm Roberto: Keep the faith, Dinkers! See y'all next time!
	2:59pm Gerry from Miami: Everyone enjoy their Ramen feasts!
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, UM and ALL!!!!
	3:00pm Dean: I almost titled my poetry book manuscript TRUMP! It's a verb, a noun, has an impact.
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks UM
	3:01pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @2:57 I agree and they make government the enemy and they are the most corrupt when they get in power

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 7, 2025

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:01pm TDK60: Hello Uncle Michael. That poor Munch screamer in the graphic above. Can't we get it back to its customary, normal horror?
	🛒 12:02pm Crafty: Hi UM! hi HDT shoppers everywhere!
	12:02pm Dean: Buddy of mine just turned me onto this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIV8lIscNCU Like The Stooges, The Dolls, Cheap Trick? You'll like the tune. The video is stupid, but videos tend to be stupid. Kinda like the combine harvester segment, though.
	12:02pm rw: Hey hey.

	12:03pm unpopularfred: greetings hinksters, got my eye on you
	🛒 12:04pm (Mr) Bill: Five years between common codes is a pretty good run, Unk. You’re seizing the opportunity to do good OTC drugs, I hope.
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Doug! TDK! Crafty! Dean! rw! Stanley! bradford! wenzo! Roberto! Bill!
	🛒 12:05pm Alvy Singer: Hi, UM! No tariffs on Hinky Dinky Time! :D
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @12:02 Thanks!
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: I wonder if I can sync the gif to the Wilhelm Scream.
	12:05pm Pedro in Arlington: Make Calypso Huge Again. American school kids need to watch annually Sir Lancelot in the 1947 Burt Lancaster powerhouse, "Brute Force."
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	12:06pm spodiodi: Greetings UM and Hinky Dinky folk!
	12:06pm johnk77: peace & respect to selecter limbo song & dance from tobago
	12:06pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Limbo" by "Lord Tickler with The Jamaican Calypso... How low will they go?
	12:06pm Uncle Michael: john! spodi! Pedro!
	🛒 12:06pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "Limbo" by "Lord Tickler with The Jamaican Calypso... In today’s U.S.A., Limbaugh, Limbaugh, Limbaugh I see.
	12:11pm chresti: Babba bee bow yow Dinkykins!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: chresti!
	12:13pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Loved One" by "Mills Hotsy Totsy Gang (feat. Bix ... Hotsy totsy!
	12:14pm Dean: I used to live next door to a bar just outside Berkeley, the Hotsy Totsy. It was once a genuine dive bar, but has since been, shall we say, gentrified? Still, a fun watering hole.
	12:18pm Gerry from Miami: Howdy to you, Uncle Michael! Sprechen sie VOUT-O-REE-NEE? Always been fascinated by SLIM GAILLARD's "invented" language. I believe parts of his "dictionafy" are available on-line.
	12:18pm chresti: ↳ Dean @12:14 Hmm wonder if my Dad ever went there when he lived in Berkeley (before mom moved up there)
	12:19pm Gerry from Miami: DICTIONAFY?? Just a typo. Sorry!
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: To misquote Mario Savio from the Berkeley Free Speech Movement '...there are times when the doom scrolling makes you so sick at heart, you must put your bodies on the gears of the machine and demand a return to the days of mindless pleasure...' Okay, give me a waffle and a slurpee, so I can stuff my mouth and boogie!
	12:22pm DJ Guin: my contacts cannot transition into sunglasses, hence i do not wear em
	12:23pm chresti: Listen to your eyeglasses?
	12:24pm TDK60: I'm sorry you're feeling sick, DJ UM. And I can't help with contact lens logistics; don't wear 'em. I know lots of other things. Like........
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Franco! DJ Brak!
	12:25pm adamdoesit: Hello Uncle Michael and Hinky Dinky Explosionarini! I find contacts too intellectually challenging, so it's still glasses for me.
	12:25pm Marie in Chicago: Hi UM, hi All, sounding gooood. Hope you feel better soon. Good reason to relax
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: adam!
	12:25pm chresti: I tried and failed contact lenses
	12:25pm Alex In Downers Grove: Bottom line is that the multi-focal contacts did not work for me the same way the progressive multi-focal eyeglasses do. I simply stopped using contacts altogether. I just wear eyeglasses and I have prescription goggles for swimming. I plan to get additional perscription goggles for other outdoor activities.
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	12:26pm johnk77: ↳ Dean @12:14 thank u dean heading to north bay end of may will try to stop by & check out
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Alex!
	12:26pm johnk77: still have evolved only as far as separate reading & distance glasses plus distance sunglasses
	12:28pm TheDerek: I have Safety glasses that are bifocal & they are a life saver
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Hypothetically, bifocal contacts would let wear whatever sunglasses I prefer. I've bever tried contacts and don't know if I'd even tolerate them.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Derek!
	12:29pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Weather Report Suite>" by "The Grateful Dead" I've never worn contacts, but I believe they work the same way my progressive glasses work. The strength of the prescription varies from the top of the lens to the bottom, and you see neerer or farer by looking through the top or the bottom of the lens. It takes getting used to, but that's how I use my glasses. (Always happy to hear some live Dead)
	12:30pm johnk77: carol has progressive glasses she loves just wears sunglasses on top when necessary
	12:30pm northguineahills: UM!
	12:30pm TheDerek: ↳ Song: "Weather Report Suite>" by "The Grateful Dead" Never heard this version, I think it's the best version yet
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: ngh!
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ TheDerek @12:30 Lots of wonderful stuff from this '74 Wall of Sound tour.
	12:32pm johnk77: cody band opened some wos gigs
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: That's some real pickin'!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @12:32 I know a guy from these parts that was on the Cody road crew back in the day.
	12:34pm johnk77: just thinking wonder if joe kerr nrps then mgr helped george get those?
	12:36pm johnk77: twitch streetview
	12:37pm Dean: @johnk77: By all means, do! It's at San Pablo and Garfield in Albany, just north of Berkeley. Nearby you'll also find Club Mallard and the Ivy Room, both old standby bars. Ivy Room has live acts most nights. While you're in town, take note of the Well Fargo bank in El Cerrito, on the east side of San Pablo, north of Garfield and the Hotsy Totsy. It sits where a marvelous jazz nightclub used to operate way back in the day, Hambone Kelly's. There are decent live recordings from the venue by Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band.
	12:37pm StringOFperils: ↳ johnk77 @12:36 A snowless vista. It should look like that here by early April.
	12:38pm StringOFperils: Hello, UM.
	12:38pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" man, this is a slam bam thank you jam!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: SOp!
	12:40pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:33 I remember when High Times did an Op-ed on Bob Weir being possibly the worst rhythm guitar ever, an opinion I share, & the flood of hate mail was so enormous they had to clear out an area of one of the back rooms just to hold all of them & hire people just to read them all
	12:41pm Gerry from Miami: BOB WEIR is really getting a vocal workout on this tune by the DEAD! Got names of his female back-up singers? And would you listen to ol' JER strummin' like no one else could! LESH and the drummers are in a tight groove as well. SUPERB!
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @12:41 That would be Donna Godchaux, band member, singing.
	12:42pm johnk77: first moved to berkeley 1970 lived also in north oakland, novato, & south novato, woodland hills left ca for good 1984 except briefer working in entertainment biz & pleasure visits ramrod visited my carshop in about 1976 w/mickey & i did talk to jeralyn a lot back then
	12:44pm Gerry from Miami: Only one back-up singers? My ears deceive me. Sounded like two.
	12:44pm StringOFperils: ↳ TheDerek @12:40 At least they never ran out of papers!
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @12:44 I think Jerry was singing too.
	12:45pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" vunderbag
	🛒 12:46pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Jam>" by "The Grateful Dead" I speak only for myself, but by the time this was recorded Jerry Garcia was playing a custom (Wolf or Tiger or what ever the hell it was...) made me realize gear is not everything, but it's a lot. To my ears, when he was playing an SG or Strat (69-71) his playing was unsurpassed. My humble opinion, but there you go.
	12:46pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks, UM! Must be Donna AND Jerry!
	12:47pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @12:40 really? wow, sounds good to me. But the lead guitarist is Jerry Garcia, right? (that's who I was talkin' about)
	12:47pm johnk77: Jerilyn Lee Brandelius i love mickey and he helped norton & john mcfee & babatunde & others whatever jerry's guitar was likely alembic worked on it
	12:47pm TheDerek: ↳ StringOFperils @12:44 I think alot of them were written on grocery bags(before plastic) & postcards written in succession
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: The guitars Franco speaks of were made by Doug Irwin, with whom I had some casual dealings. www.irwin-guitars.com
	12:50pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:47 Deadheads will tell you THE only lead guitarist
	12:50pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @12:47 I liked Jerylyn's book.
	12:51pm leshwatt: Escaping through the lily fields?
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: lw!
	12:51pm leshwatt: How are ya Uncle?
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: ↳ leshwatt @12:51 a hair under the weather...it happens. thanks for asking
	12:52pm leshwatt: Thanks for soldiering on!
	12:54pm TDK60: He's carefully monitoring the Dead on a long jam. Maybe gussy up the studio, find Lucas, etc?
	12:54pm asheville jon: Hippie noise!
	12:55pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:47 Sorry if that came across condescending, your comment just made me remember that. That Op-ed piece was written in '95 & that I actually remebered19 years later is shocking
	🛒 12:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Uncle Michael @12:49 Yesterday I listened to Death Don't Have No Mercy, an instrumental outtake from the sessions for their first album. Jerry was playing a Guild Starfire, most likely closed mic'd. All I can say is WOW!
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: jon!
	12:58pm johnk77: jerilyn was very cool & down-to-earth i just learned irwin was in-house luthier for alembic i only knew bear among alembic folks
	12:59pm TheDerek: ↳ Song: "The Other One>" by "The Grateful Dead" The Dead in a Prog rock moment?
	12:59pm TDK60: I knew Lucas would show up for a Gratefuls jam. Yep.
	12:59pm johnk77: lucas cam multiples
	1:00pm asheville jon: UM!
	1:01pm Marie in Chicago: I think, eventually, there will a Grateful Dead tidal wave on WFMU cuz it really is pretty "jazzy" and jazz has been increasing on the airwaves...
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:01 I'll keep the pilot light lit.
	1:03pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @12:55 Oh, Derek, not at all!! @) What you said is very interesting and surprising to me. There really has been a lot of Dead dissing/dismissing over the years (myself having been kind of guilty of that)
	1:04pm James Douglas: UM it does not get much better than this. Thanks!
	1:04pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:01 GTDR has some choice DJs that play some really obscure Jazz I would have never heard anywhere else.
	1:04pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:03 kewl
	1:05pm johnk77: @um did u ever meet charlie kelly invented mountain bike/roadie guy
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Weir is very iconoclastic as a rhythm player. It might be his dyslexia. It might be that he mostly emulates chord-comping jazz pianists.
	1:05pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @1:04 yeah, me too. And I am finding that I like some styles of jazz that I didn't really like so much before
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: ↳ johnk77 @1:05 nossir
	1:05pm sinner: sinnerjam
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: James!
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: sinner!
	1:06pm johnk77: if u get the chance go for it he is associated with a bicycle museum in marin county i think
	1:07pm leshwatt: Weir is an underrated guitar player. As an aspiring guitar player he is to me, anyway.
	1:07pm TheDerek: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:03 Oh I was anti-Dead in High School. I hated DeadHeads & anything tie-dye. My brother was the one who got me to chill out on that(he didn't care much for deadheads either) & played me some stuff by them that was out of the park
	🛒 1:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ TheDerek @1:07 This is true. Music obsession in general creates strong biases. The older I get, the more I'm able to hear things without the cultural baggage and pier group kneejerk pontification clouding my ability to enjoy myself.
	1:14pm winston legthigh: hi uncle michael and hinky dinks!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: winston!
	1:15pm northguineahills: I might have saw the Dead four months before Jerry died, but that was out of curiosity. it wouldn't be until i was 23 that i started to come around to the dead (and that was from john oswald's remix/collage, of live dark stars, "greyfolded".
	1:15pm Roberto: It's a tough time, UM. Those of us with even the tiniest granule of empathy are verging on avoiding the news altogether. In any case, I would avoid any mainstream sources, or, as the kids are calling it these days, the "legacy media."
	1:17pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @1:15 The "legacies" decided a while back that softballing their tRump coverage was in their best interests. It's largely how we've gotten where we are now.
	1:17pm TheDerek: Unkie, I no longer listen to the news. Social media no longer served the purpose I needed it to & just cancelled it. I'm doing fine without it. You are not alone in your needing to get away from it
	1:18pm johnk77: some of us lived thru nixon without moving to canada fixing my teeth & trying to survive trump2 still love canada
	1:19pm winston legthigh: ↳ Roberto @1:15 exactly. not interested in what either side has to say until there is discernable improvement.
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:15 remarkable record...I had know idea it reached outside of the bubble.
	1:19pm johnk77: agree news reality phildickian
	1:23pm Roberto: I've been following independent Substacks. At least they're not owned by right-wing megalomaniacs.
	1:23pm Dean: One need not be a "kid" to have recognized ages ago that mainstream news is essentially class propaganda. Thank you, johnk77, for reminding us of Nixon. (Really, I'm not being sarcastic.) We live too much in the present, and it makes us feel that our circumstances are so much more dire than those of the past, which are so easy to forget, to sublimate.
	🛒 1:24pm Alvy Singer: ↳ Song: "I'm a Mover" by "Buffalo" Show is sounding terrific UM! Excellent choice btw!
	1:24pm TheDerek: ↳ johnk77 @1:19 Funny how alot of book reviewers calling Man in the High Tower, at the time of publication, the most paranoid speculative fiction ever printed.....wonder if any of those reviewers are still alive
	🛒 1:25pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Roberto @1:23 So glad that you mentioned Substacks. I subscribed to two or three new ones this past week.
	1:25pm Roberto: ↳ (Mr) Bill @1:25 YEAHH BOII
	1:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:19 I was going through my plunderphonics initiation and stumbled onto that beauty.
	1:27pm TheDerek: ↳ Dean @1:23 Warren G. Harding is still considered by historians the worst President ever.
	1:27pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Dean @1:23 I kind of started realizing/seeing that in my 20s as I was reading the NYT more regularly. It was disillusioning and disappointing.
	1:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TheDerek @1:07 Yeah, they were definitely not seen as cool in some circles, eg, punky
	1:29pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:28 It's all about in-group/out-group creation to use social psychology terms
	🛒 1:30pm Brian in UK: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 Al Stewart wrote a song about him on 'Past, Present & Future'.
	1:30pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "I'm a Mover" by "Buffalo" no springfield involved...
	1:31pm leshwatt: Sounded a bit like The Other One
	1:31pm Marie in Chicago: Wish I could chat more but I'm super busy at work (and getting ready to go to India--I fly out tomorrow and I'm a little stressed about it but get more excited as I knock out my last tasks to be ready). Back to work for me @(
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:30 Aussie's, but no Rick.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: Good luck, Marie! Have a good trip.
	1:33pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Flying Anchors" by "Art" no bears involved here....
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: ↳ northguineahills @1:33 No cows, Henry or otherwise.
	1:35pm adamdoesit: I finally cancelled the Times this week. I knew this was an empty gesture that would change nothing, but I couldn't stand to keep paying them $12/month to read "unorthodox" and "audacious" instead of "illegal" and "coup."
	1:38pm Roberto: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 tRump sees this as a dare.
	1:38pm Dean: Just this morning I was thinking of ways to mock the NYT. It's not hard, I know. But: Five Minutes That Will Make You Despise The New York Times came to mind.
	1:38pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M
	🛒 1:39pm DjLorraine: Yes😘
	🛒 1:39pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ TheDerek @1:27 No longer, I’m afraid: presidentialgreatnessproject.com .
	1:39pm StringOFperils: ↳ adamdoesit @1:35 Yeah, that's getting to be a bit too much in global responses to IT, in general.
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: coel! DJL!
	1:41pm Roberto: ↳ adamdoesit @1:35 Exactly. They seem to be having trouble finding the appropriate descriptors for this ferkakte meshugos. Speaking of which, "ferkakte meshugos" would definitely be appropriate.
	1:45pm Roberto: "Inane" "Insane" "Pathetic" "Blatantly unconstitutional" "Impractical" It's really not that hard.
	1:45pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:31 Thanks, UM!
	1:46pm Marie in Chicago: I would characterize the NYT's perspective as white male bourgeois
	1:46pm adamdoesit: ↳ Roberto @1:41 If I saw FERKAKTE MESHUGOS in their largest type above the fold, I'd consider resubscribing. Dean, I can picture the accompanying primary-colored silhouette animation of a reader opening the paper and yakking all over it.
	1:47pm StringOFperils: Press like this, decidedly left-biased as it may be, is closer to directly addressing the depth of the dire predicament that everybody's in. www.theguardian.com...
	1:47pm Marie in Chicago: It's like they want to support the system but when one party in a 2-party system has put democracy aside... time to speak bluntly
	1:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Ain't No Fun (Waiting 'round to Be a Millionaire)... kickin ass and takin names!
	1:48pm efd: ↳ Song: "Ain't No Fun (Waiting 'round to Be a Millionaire)... Bon!
	1:48pm Roberto: ↳ adamdoesit @1:46 "tRump Is Still an Irredeemable Schmuck" by Roberto
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: It ain't no fun waiting 'round to string up billionaires.
	1:49pm Dean: Best newspaper ever must be the Dacron Republican-Democrat. Example headline in progressively tinier type: Powder Room Prowler Strikes Anew Two Dacron Women Feared Missing in Volcanic Disaster Japan Destroyed Thank you, National Lampoon.
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:48 efd! (drummin' at hoof?)
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: Shall we get our choogle on now? Yes, we shall...
	1:50pm efd: ↳ Uncle Michael @1:49 I am! And on your song, to boot!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:50 FINALLY!
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @1:50 woot!
	🛒 1:51pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ StringOFperils @1:47 Right said! The Guardian is my go-to source in the legacy media.
	1:55pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Suicide City" by "Lee Morgan" Nice!!!!
	1:57pm Polyus: ↳ Song: "Suicide City" by "Lee Morgan" Who is the drummer here? They're sorta good.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Polyus @1:57 Billy Higgins.
	1:58pm Dean: Dr. UM
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @1:58 ...but I play one on the radio.
	1:59pm Dean: rim shot
	2:03pm efd: funny coincidence, I'm at my volunteer gig on Wednesdays in the middle of the day!
	2:04pm Marie in Chicago: I heard some positive news this morning about how the courts held up during the first term and seem likely to again--so many different kinds of suits filed over the past week. It was a segment on WNYC (the Brian Lehrer Show) with a law professor. I recommend it
	2:05pm bobopop dublon p land: while writing an article on David Murry Octet live at UWM Milwaukee..I got to meet one favorite drummers ..his name was Billy Higgins
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: bobopop! David Murray did some nice stuff with the Grateful Dead songbook.
	2:08pm Dean: Phil Collins!
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @2:08 yup
	🛒 2:09pm (Mr) Bill: Encouraging. Thank you.
	2:10pm Roberto: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:04 They tried flooding the zone in 2017 and for the most part, they failed. The main concern this time is that they're more prepared and more deranged.
	2:11pm efd: ↳ Song: "The Planets" by "Flaming Youth" Phil Collins?!
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: ↳ efd @2:11 Yes.
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Listen to him sing now!
	2:12pm Dean: Now play a track from Quiet World's The Road and I'll interject, "Steve Hackett!"
	2:13pm Marie in Chicago: Yeah, I hear you. It's a serious threat. And we shall see but people and organizations are starting to take actions against it. The opposition has just begun. And, it looks kind of positive from a legal perspective... After 2 years I think (pray) we will at least have a check in the House of Reps with a Democratic majority. I have to say, personally, I can't believe so many people voted for Chump and to my mind they are either ignorant or dumb so my faith in the electorate is not great, which really sucks
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @2:12 And if I play "My White Bicycle" by Tomorrow?
	2:15pm Dean: Followed by Charterhouse Choral Society, "Take This Heart," and I'm all like, "Mike Rutherford! Anthony Phillips!" Steve Howe! Free association.
	2:16pm Roberto: But enough about f-face. MUSIC, PLZ!
	2:18pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:13 The worry in that is that this IS what the people want, enough to actually make this so. And that isn't going to magically go away. It's that loss of faith in the institutions of civilisation as we've known it that deeply concern me. Trump is a festering boil that's a symptom of a cancer riddling the entire body politic.
	2:21pm TDK60: Hi String-o. Sorry Sinclair Lewis, it did happen here.
	2:21pm adamdoesit: ↳ StringOFperils @2:18 Pustulously well put, SOp.
	2:24pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:18 Yeah, ugghhh. I think they want some of it... and they are ignorant of the reality of various aspects of government and foreign affairs, etc. And, unfortunately, if he sinks the ship (and loses their support) we all suffer. But other people have tried to be like him and they didn't;t get the support like DeSantis... I think without Chump this wouldn't have been possible but the forces behind him are strong...
	2:26pm doctorjazz: Back from dog walk, been listening ot the walk.
	2:27pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... Not mincing words on this one.
	2:27pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... beauteous
	🛒 2:28pm DjLorraine: Circulatory whip is good for you
	2:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "You Set Me On Fire" by "Jimmie Lunceford & His Or... Like this! (Lumceford was a star in the Big Band Era, not played or remembered much any more)
	2:30pm RevWaldo: Ark 2 was that post-apocalyptic show on CBS Saturday Mornings... for kids!
	2:30pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:24 Yeah, its' sad. They themselves stand to get so hurt, or worse.
	2:31pm StringOFperils: At any rate, there's music. Thank goodness for that.
	2:32pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "This World Over" by "XTC" love this
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: Waldo!
	2:34pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "This World Over" by "XTC" The best band from Swindon. I think.
	2:34pm Roberto: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:24 I thank science he's old and feeble.
	2:34pm StringOFperils: ↳ TDK60 @2:34 Ha ha ha.
	2:35pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:30 totally.
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Justin Hayward and Gilbert O'Sullivan are both from Swindon!
	2:36pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Roberto @2:34 Yazzzz, we can hope that he fails noticeably visibly, which he seems to be doing. And, a lot of his supporters are also old....
	2:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Till the End of the World" by "Jim Reeves" Nice jazzy guitar comping!
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: I'm excited about my impending ramen noodles. I'm not that hard to please.
	2:37pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ TDK60 @2:34 Go Swindon!!!!!
	2:37pm TDK60: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:35 Oh, Hayward, eh? I thought the Moody Blues were all from Birmingham. Brummies."
	2:38pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 that sounds yummy. I like mine with a lot of green onions, which I believe help fight colds, and, prolly kill a lot of germs
	2:39pm StringOFperils: Lots of scallions are good if you're moody and alone again.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:38 Might doctor it up with some green onions, sesame oil, ginger and red pepper flakes...
	2:40pm adamdoesit: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 What's your preferred ramen, UM? I favor Shin for the dry kind, or Sun Noodle when I want to get fancy. Marie and SOp, agree, green onions are essential. But sometimes I'll just drop in a wad of kimchi instead.
	2:40pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @2:37 I can't find a credit for the guitar player on the Jim Reeves track, but Chet Atkins was producer, could be him playing (but can't find a credit).
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: ↳ adamdoesit @2:40 Whatever shiny package at Costco catches my eye.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: I'm making a pretty serious gumbo tomorrow.
	2:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:37 ramen's the bomb if you hook 'em up. i add so much stuff to ramen that it's almost too big a meal.
	2:44pm Gerry from Miami: Aren't XTC from Swindon?
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Song: "Tomorrow Drop Dead" by "The Fraternal Order of th... This is Andrew Gold. I'm not lying to you!
	2:45pm doctorjazz: I got some frozen Ramen noodles at an Asian grocery, company Shirakiku. Have been good when I've used them (get my Japanese recipes from website Just One Cookbook-great Japanese style Chicken Curry)
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Gerry from Miami @2:44 HELLO!
	2:45pm Marie in Chicago: Isn't it interesting that 2 people came here from other countries, became ultra rich, bought media companies, and exerted an outsized influence on politics, swerving things to the right?
	2:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @2:40 that really sounds like "da bomb"
	2:47pm Dean: You're referring, Marie, to Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson?
	2:47pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:45 I'm sure the reverse has happened all over the place, post 1945.
	2:48pm leshwatt: Ramen? Ooh now I’m rethinking my dinner of popcorn mixed with cheetos
	2:48pm Dean: My bad. Franklin was born here, wasn't he? I seem to remember Milk Street...somewhere.
	2:49pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Dean @2:47 ha ha ha--no, but did they come here from other countries and swerve things to the right?
	2:49pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:47 hm, I do not know...
	2:50pm doctorjazz: I read an interesting statistic in Heather Cox Richardson's newsletter this morning-Tesla cars have twice the fatality rate than the average for all cars. This is who everything is being handed over to...
	2:50pm Dean: And Jefferson, too, was born and bred American! I should have my bar card withdrawn.
	2:50pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @2:47 I think other countries might have more rules about who can buy media
	2:50pm doctorjazz: Digging the set, UM!
	2:51pm Gerry from Miami: Sorry, TDK60! Didn't see your mention of XTC's being from Swindon. The only time I had a chance to catch them---at the Hollywood Palladium in LA on the ""English Settlement" tour--- Andy had another one of his stagefright incidents and the concert was cancelled. No opening act either!
	2:51pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... My JAM!
	2:51pm Marie in Chicago: And I believe Musk-like bought Tesla after all the hard science had been worked out. Like, he's not some kind of genius, maybe just a good businessman?
	2:52pm StringOFperils: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:50 The USA has been a very busy beaver re-arranging other countries. 'Buying' foreign media might not be entirely overt. So much goes on back-stage, it's quite amazing.
	2:52pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... LLLLLLLOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!
	2:52pm TDK60: I don't think that a move to the right is just up to two personalities. Even ones with much power and influence. It's a combination of reactionary forces--religious, social, commercial, political. Big capital. Big oil. Etc.
	2:53pm adamdoesit: ↳ doctorjazz @2:50 I internally questioned that stat, but they've certainly proven deadly to the nation. When you see a Tesla, raise your middle finger.
	🛒 2:53pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ TDK60 @2:52 And big, big falsehoods.
	2:53pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... This is my go-to track whenever I get laid off from a job.
	2:54pm Marie in Chicago: But the facts are the facts and I hold that Bush Cheney (2x if you could believe it) would not have occurred without Fox. Trump 1 would not have occurred w.o Fox. And Chump 2 would not have occurred without Musks' money and X.
	🛒 2:55pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Roberto @2:53 Do you sing it to your employer as you leave?
	2:55pm northguineahills: thanks, UM! tre fun!
	2:56pm Dean: Lou Rawls & George Harrison, All Things In Time Must Pass, "You'll Never Dig Another Love Like Mine."
	🛒 2:56pm Crafty: Thank you UM!❤ great show!
	2:56pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:54 It's true, Retched Rupert's alternate reality machine has been running for decades now, with no sign of slowing down.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: Have a wild weekend, everyone!
	2:56pm leshwatt: Thanks Uncle have a great weekend!
	🛒 2:56pm bradford: Many thanks, Uncle Michael!
	🛒 2:57pm (Mr) Bill: Multi-thanks for the doomscrolling break, UM. May I be excused a bit early to call my senators?
	2:57pm StringOFperils: You think it's over, but it's snot......thanks UM!
	🛒 2:57pm Alvy Singer: Thanks so much UM! Hope you start to feel better.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: The media environment leans heavily right wing (Fox, podcasters, radio broadcasts). Republicans have been saying that Democrats are demons, taking your hard earned money, giving it to those "others". Reagan campaigned on how bad the government is. It goes back even further with Repubilcans (Nixon's Southern strategy, for instance0.
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @2:56 can't we just have a reasonable weekend for once?
	2:57pm AMYGDALA: ↳ Song: "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" by "Lou... Good one! Amazing how a tune can send you back to another time. I was mere 'yute'; always loved this one. Great show, joined way late today though. Good weekend to one and all!
	2:57pm doctorjazz: Thanks, UM, fun show!
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Thanks, UM! Speedy gumbo-enabled recovery. cøel, man, what I would give for one of those.
	2:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the fine show, UM. Get better.
	2:58pm Roberto: ↳ (Mr) Bill @2:55 I sang along to it at my farewell meeting.
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @2:56 I despise Rupert Murdoch. I actually started writing a one-man musical show about him called "RUPERT!"
	2:59pm Roberto: Keep the faith, Dinkers! See y'all next time!
	2:59pm Gerry from Miami: Everyone enjoy their Ramen feasts!
	2:59pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, UM and ALL!!!!
	3:00pm Dean: I almost titled my poetry book manuscript TRUMP! It's a verb, a noun, has an impact.
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks UM
	3:01pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ doctorjazz @2:57 I agree and they make government the enemy and they are the most corrupt when they get in power
