	10:02am AYAYRON: Shout out for RI!
	♥ 10:02am chris_in_space: Can confirm, I was streaming WFMU in the year 2000. Might have even been 1999.
	♥ 10:02am Dan 2: I discovered WFMU on my drives to high school. We used to call it the "weird station"
	♥ 10:03am Elena: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:58 Hi Handy! Good to see you yesterday
	10:03am Toothgrinder Tom: My kids have grown up around it, but they don’t seem to get it or find it interesting. I guess they’re not radio people?
	10:04am AYAYRON: Line and Grainger are the worst!! Giant paper bricks!
	♥ 10:04am chresti: U-line!
	♥ 10:04am Handy Haversack: ↳ Elena @10:03 You too! Wild time!
	10:04am Toothgrinder Tom: I think when I first started listening the station was in East Orange but ending its time there.
	♥ 10:05am WoodsOfMaine: Are there good alternatives to ULine?
	10:05am SinusDrone: I discovered WFMU this Fall because my girlfriends dad gave us an old clock radio and it was one of the stations set to the numbers. He had you on speed dial and so do I!
	♥ 10:06am sinner: ↳ chresti @10:04 I ain't lyin'.
	♥ 10:06am Zip7: ↳ chris_in_space @10:02 Me too. I remember listening to Doug Schulkind and Monica Lynch on Fridays circa '99-'00. Friday was Fun Day!
	♥ 10:06am chris_in_space: ↳ Zip7 @10:06 My gateway show back in those days was Rex and Fool's Paradise!
	♥ 10:07am jmr3: My WFMU shirts show up on zoom during meetings and the occasional lecture, and the stream is frequently on while I'm working as a medical librarian. Guess I better update that SFL!
	♥ 10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Trouble & Marty. Fuggedaboutit.
	♥ 10:09am Charles in Chicago: ↳ chris_in_space @10:02 1997, I believe. WFMU was at the forefront of online broadcasting, using now-outmoded formats like "Real Audio" (which sounded terrible, but worked over low-bandwidth connections)
	♥ 10:11am Scott From Boston: Pledge for Weller!!!!!
	♥ 10:11am chris_in_space: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:09 I totally remember the Real Audio streams! It was an exciting time.
	♥ 10:11am Charles in Chicago: I grew up in NJ and listened to WFMU in the 80s when it was coming out of Upsala College, moved to Chicago in the 90s and was very happy when they started streaming!
	10:11am rich the greeb: I’ll admit the style council is growing on me as i get older
	♥ 10:11am Paulo AD: Crazy to go from the jam to this to his solo stuff
	♥ 10:12am Scott From Boston: ↳ rich the greeb @10:11 Rich...so good!
	♥ 10:12am Scott From Boston: ↳ Paulo AD @10:11 New album "69" too good!
	♥ 10:13am Franco Twinkie: What Marty said: WFMU is my only form of social media. I have NEVER done anything else.
	♥ 10:13am Jason from Houston: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:05 refuseuline.com
	♥ 10:14am jmr3: ↳ chris_in_space @10:11 I'm sure I've still got some terrible sounding cdrs of captured live streams of shows that I made so I could listen to wfmu later in my car
	10:14am rx "rexy" scabin: @unpopularfred It is lucky that it did not happen in real life.
	♥ 10:15am Paulo AD: ↳ Scott From Boston @10:12 I love Paul weller, I had a giant poster of Friday street and Stanley Road in my bedroom growing up
	♥ 10:16am Scott From Boston: ↳ Paulo AD @10:15 Excellent brother! I had the Jam first album!
	♥ 10:16am chris_in_space: ↳ jmr3 @10:14 OMG me too with the CDRs of captured live streams.
	10:16am peter in SEA: Icepack!
	♥ 10:16am Handy Haversack: Nice longevity in the phone number too.
	♥ 10:17am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:16 I love a legacy phone number.
	♥ 10:17am Zip7: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:09 Yeah, Real Audio was pretty gnarly. KJHK, the student station at U of Kansas, was an early webcaster. Suddenly they had a global audience! I worked at a radio reading service next door and enjoyed watching students up on the roof of the station sharing "left-handed cigarettes." Lawrence KS was a great place at the time.
	♥ 10:19am chris_in_space: ↳ Zip7 @10:17 Today I learned what a "left-handed cigarette" is. Brilliant.
	♥ 10:19am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 Thanks! And holy smokes, that's a lot!
	10:20am AYAYRON: Omg I love this cover
	♥ 10:20am Paulo AD: ↳ Scott From Boston @10:16 Setting sons and sound effects are where it's at
	♥ 10:20am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:17 We've had our landline number for over twenty-five years now!
	♥ 10:21am Paulo AD: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:20 Almost as long as my parents had theirs lol
	♥ 10:21am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:20 Is it on the top of a telephone pole?
	♥ 10:21am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:20 Proper. That's what I am talking about, friend!
	10:22am The Space Pope: Nice!
	♥ 10:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:21 I get embarrassed because it uses the newer exchange for our neighborhood, not the original from the twenties.
	♥ 10:23am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:22 LOL
	10:23am yippie: open up the window too
	♥ 10:23am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:22 I feel you!
	♥ 10:24am JDub: ↳ Song: "let em in" by "billy paul" I'm being radicalized thru music and I love it!

	♥ 10:33am Handy Haversack: Yay, Jason!
	♥ 10:34am mdashkin: Book about Lakewood, CA by D.J. Waldie: Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir
	♥ 10:34am disco_nap_: ↳ Mona @10:25 Whoa special guest star Mona! 🤩
	10:35am cat: RI represent!! Missing WBRU and their summer concert series downtown 🙁
	♥ 10:35am Zip7: ↳ AnotherJon @10:31 Oh god . . . Clancy Brothers "Irish Songs of Rebellion." I always misheard the lyrics to "Nell Flaherty's Drake" as "May your cat never hump/May your pig never grump" when it was "hunt/grunt"
	♥ 10:36am disco_nap_: My partner’s from Maine (Portland). Have been there with him many times and can confirm it rules! Very refreshing change of pace from NYC.
	♥ 10:36am three-hour brunch friend: Preach, Trouble!!
	♥ 10:37am Bucci: Providence represent
	♥ 10:38am Greg from ZONE 5: Great record shopping in Providence!
	♥ 10:38am common: i miss providence
	♥ 10:39am disco_nap_: Only been to Providence once but it was during WaterFire, which was so lovely.

	10:48am J in LA: Good morning!?
	10:48am annette: good Ramadan vibes, All 🌍🌎🌏
	♥ 10:49am Handy Haversack: I lived in Providence one magical summer in college. Great town. Great town. Our Saturday routine of Louis's, Myopic Books, coffee then beers on the porch, and then Babe's on the Sunny Side has never been equaled. Worked at Fellini, too, which was a solid place to labor.
	♥ 10:51am Paulo AD: ↳ annette @10:48 Ramadan is in full swing here.Ramadan Mubarak
	10:53am annette: Good Fast !
	♥ 10:53am Crownless Gander: Got a Style Council album on my record player right now! No shame.

	♥ 11:15am Ken From Hyde Park: In times of Trouble, pledge to WFMU.
	♥ 11:16am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:12 Yeah, I know...ages ago I had a German language gig at Toilet and Douche. Biggest pain in the ass commute of my entire unglorious career. My issue is that the subways in Astoria have been a complete and utter shitshow, especially the 7 and the N. And there's been more than one stabbing lately at my local once-quiet station, whose only fault before that all these years had been a complete lack of elevators of any sort and having its outdoor stairs/handrails covered in pigeon shit alas.
	♥ 11:16am Handy Haversack: Really annoying to find out about stuff like this during Marathon, but I am psychically incapable of resisting this: www.krisgravesprojects.com...
	♥ 11:16am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Just threw in a bit more! :) Hope it helps.

	♥ 11:18am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:17 Probably due to schedule differences; we can both be right! On the weekends we get screwed out by me.
	♥ 11:18am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: 274!
	♥ 11:19am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: 275!!!!!
	♥ 11:20am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: WE WANT NINA
	♥ 11:20am Ken From Hyde Park: $1050 shy of $10k as well!
	11:21am Marty McSorley: We wanted Nina, and thanks to you all we got Nina! & now that we got Nina. we want more pledges!

	♥ 11:24am Crownless Gander: This is fantastic! I wish the choir would sing some of the explicitly Hindu lyrics, but you can't have everything.
	11:25am Sam: Gorgeous!
	♥ 11:25am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ artbrau @11:22 Community supported art cannot be suppressed! Mutual aid! And for those keeping count...every time I throw in another $20 the one premium I am asking for is another sticker. I don't go for multiples on T-shirts, but there is enough Nzi/T*mp 💩stuck up on public places that need...erm..."improvement" and I hope to do my part.

	♥ 11:28am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: I mean, just YESTERDAY, down on the LES, some red-hat asshole assaulted a trans woman at the Delancey Street station. We need to make fascists as uncomfortable as possible.
	♥ 11:28am Officer Pupp: ↳ Song: "my sweet lord" by "nina simone" I used to have a WFMU-inspired radio show on a tiny regional station here in the UK, for the first show I played every version of Young Gifted and Black that I could find back to back.

	♥ 11:30am Officer Pupp: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:29 Ooops, yeah I only played only Nina's versions!
	♥ 11:30am Zip7: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:28 The head of a local farmworker/migrant service organization addressed a group of local Democrats earlier this week. She described the services they offer and the pressures farmworkers and migrants face. It was one of the most powerful and heartbreaking presentations I’ve ever heard. The lady who runs this operation, and the volunteers who work there, are real heroes. It’s important to remember that there are folks like this, working tirelessly to help those less fortunate, all around us.
	♥ 11:30am paddy in matawan: What was going on at Ft. Dix? Was it just a performance or a church service?
	♥ 11:32am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Also, I gotta get back to work, but will have the show on of course. Let me remind everyone that if you have any cash to spare, get yourself a stack of these in the languages applicable to your area and leave them where they can be found -- near restaurant loading doors, where deliveristas hang out, those WiFi/free call pylons, etc. I have a stack in Spanish/English that I'm leaving around places: www.redcardorders.com
	♥ 11:33am Zip7: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:32 Thanks for this!!!
	11:34am Mattynotimes: Fuck yes this is my JAM!
	♥ 11:35am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Zip7 @11:30 Of course the irony is that when there's no surplus food it's the MAGAts that will suffer the most. Ditto re tariffs. Every damn thing is made in China now. Building materials come from Canada. And lots of produce comes through if not directly from Mexico. People with $$ won't give a fuck if prices go up 30% and if eggs are $10/dozen and can afford produce hand-raised by Harvard-educated brain surgeons on co-ops in Upstate NY. They won't blink if insulin is $300/month and in most cases they can make dietary adjustments and have access to medical care that would forestall a need for insulin.
	♥ 11:35am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:34 Now we done it!
	♥ 11:35am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Zip7 @11:33 You're very welcome!
	♥ 11:36am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Me have no record player, so hoping for a CD -- if not, happy to throw any vinyl back in le prize pool!
	11:37am Mattynotimes: I’m just jamming out in the orthopedic office over here…what’s up Handy!
	♥ 11:37am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: And Marty, I LOVE your DJ Premium and got your one-hitter. Now I gotta dig up my one hitter bag....
	11:37am Paulo AD: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 Everything good?
	♥ 11:38am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 What up, Matty! Holding down the lower Upper West Side over here.
	11:38am Mattynotimes: What’s up Paulo! Yea just making sure a tear in my cartilage is all healed and it is!
	♥ 11:38am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 Hope everything is OK!
	♥ 11:39am sgillies: I've got an abnormally large head, too, Marty.
	♥ 11:39am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:35 Tax the billionaires!
	♥ 11:39am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:38 Mazel Tov!
	♥ 11:39am sgillies: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:37 I went for it, too. Couldn't resist.
	11:40am Mattynotimes: I’m trying to clear my evening so I can hang with you Saturday night Handy! Gonna be a killer party!
	♥ 11:40am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:39 Big time. OTOH I kind of WANT to see the the China tariffs happen. The place that will be hit the hardest? Wal-mart. ALL of their shit is made in China for the most part. Hit em where it hurts. Let the MAGAts reap what they sow. Also fuck Target, go to Costco instead.
	♥ 11:41am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ sgillies @11:39 I know, right!
	11:43am Sam: 7SD did a poll of listeners' favorite theme songs, and I think Mr. Giant Man won, or maybe tied for first.
	♥ 11:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ Sam @11:43 It was hardly scientific!
	11:45am the serpent: Marty really thinks this is his doesn’t he?
	♥ 11:45am chris_in_space: Let's not forget America declaring war on its closest ally.
	♥ 11:46am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Also, as someone who doesn't have a car but knows too much about car parts due to past cases I've worked on...Cars, and most of their components, even for "European" brands, are now largely made in Mexico. Sub-components are made in China. Bulk chemicals may or may not be made domestically, but the cans/packaging and the containers/point of sale displays for car stuff? China -- one of my relatives by marriage is VP of production for a company that does such things and he goes to Guanzhou several times a year to oversee quarterly rollouts and production schedules. Fun aside: He's about 5'6", a bit rotund, blue eyes, and once-black hair and a very lush beard that has since turned snow-white. His Chinese counterparts' nickname for him in China? "Santa Claus." And when the Chinese crew comes HERE, they get to deal with one of the print production staff, a tall White dude with a TON of facial piercings/ear piercings. My cousin calls him "Jingle Bells" due to the audible nature of his adornments.
	♥ 11:46am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chris_in_space @11:45 Yup.
	11:46am Andres: Trouble and Marty. Joe Bataan central on 'FMU! The best!
	11:49am Toothgrinder Tom: @chris_in_space when bad stuff happens, it’s good to have allies. And we had a lot of them and a remarkable amount of goodwill.
	11:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Until now.
	11:50am Marty McSorley: 13 more for Rap-O-Clapo! we can do it
	♥ 11:50am disco_nap_: Thanks, Trouble and Marty! 👯‍♀️ Have a great day, Troublemakers!
	♥ 11:52am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "You Rented a Space" by "cristina" Here for it.
	11:52am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all ...
	♥ 11:53am chresti: Yay birdies!
	♥ 11:53am Jason from Houston: Wait... No pizza?!?
	♥ 11:54am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:53 Pizza's on me, pal.
	♥ 11:54am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chris_in_space @11:45 To anyone who didn't pledge yet -- think what that $10 is. Not even ONE happy hour drink at most places; I haven't seen a $5 HH beer in years. So one premium beer/one middle range pour plus tip is $10. So "buy" WFMU that drink and send them your Hamilton!
	♥ 11:55am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble, Marty, phone peeps (Elena!), food peeps, and especially all you Modern pledgers! What a thing!
	♥ 11:55am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Yes, all glory to the volunteers and the DJs!!
	♥ 11:55am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:54 Thanks for coming through on that. I have been under the impression WFMU also sold slices.
	♥ 11:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:55 The pizza oven is full of records!
	♥ 11:56am bradford: Thanks Trouble, Marty, volunteers, and pledgers!
	♥ 11:56am chresti: Thanks Trouble and Marty!
	♥ 11:56am Jason from Houston: Thank you, Trouble. Thank you, Marty. Love you, sweet radio friends.
	♥ 11:57am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:56 I believe it.
	♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:53 On the requisition form, just cross out "CD player" and write "pizza oven."
	♥ 11:59am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Thank you Trouble, Marty, and supporting crew! And all of you here on the boards!
	♥ 11:59am sgillies: Awesome show. Thanks Trouble and Marty!
	♥ 11:59am sgillies: Fuck yeah!
	♥ 12:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: I will do all the swearing for you all!
	12:00pm Marie in Chicago: Ur awesome, Trouble!
	12:00pm Bonnie: Trouble-- rushed to my computer just to comment on your last talk time. FYI museums are NOT supposed to sell their collections to be able to "build a new wing" or really for any reason, even to save the museum. It's a super taboo thing that is highly frowned upon in the field and virtually never happens. Please don't tear down other struggling nonprofits, for me as a museum professional hearing that comment had a very "I'm not like other girls" vibe :(

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.

	♥ 10:02am chris_in_space: Can confirm, I was streaming WFMU in the year 2000. Might have even been 1999.
	♥ 10:02am Dan 2: I discovered WFMU on my drives to high school. We used to call it the "weird station"
	♥ 10:03am Elena: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:58 Hi Handy! Good to see you yesterday
	10:03am Toothgrinder Tom: My kids have grown up around it, but they don’t seem to get it or find it interesting. I guess they’re not radio people?
	10:04am AYAYRON: Line and Grainger are the worst!! Giant paper bricks!
	♥ 10:04am chresti: U-line!
	♥ 10:04am Handy Haversack: ↳ Elena @10:03 You too! Wild time!

	♥ 10:05am WoodsOfMaine: Are there good alternatives to ULine?
	10:05am SinusDrone: I discovered WFMU this Fall because my girlfriends dad gave us an old clock radio and it was one of the stations set to the numbers. He had you on speed dial and so do I!
	♥ 10:06am sinner: ↳ chresti @10:04 I ain't lyin'.

	♥ 10:06am chris_in_space: ↳ Zip7 @10:06 My gateway show back in those days was Rex and Fool's Paradise!
	♥ 10:07am jmr3: My WFMU shirts show up on zoom during meetings and the occasional lecture, and the stream is frequently on while I'm working as a medical librarian. Guess I better update that SFL!
	♥ 10:08am Greg from ZONE 5: Trouble & Marty. Fuggedaboutit.
	♥ 10:09am Charles in Chicago: ↳ chris_in_space @10:02 1997, I believe. WFMU was at the forefront of online broadcasting, using now-outmoded formats like "Real Audio" (which sounded terrible, but worked over low-bandwidth connections)

	♥ 10:17am Zip7: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:09 Yeah, Real Audio was pretty gnarly. KJHK, the student station at U of Kansas, was an early webcaster. Suddenly they had a global audience! I worked at a radio reading service next door and enjoyed watching students up on the roof of the station sharing "left-handed cigarettes." Lawrence KS was a great place at the time.
	♥ 10:19am chris_in_space: ↳ Zip7 @10:17 Today I learned what a "left-handed cigarette" is. Brilliant.

	10:22am The Space Pope: Nice!
	♥ 10:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:21 I get embarrassed because it uses the newer exchange for our neighborhood, not the original from the twenties.

	♥ 10:49am Handy Haversack: I lived in Providence one magical summer in college. Great town. Great town. Our Saturday routine of Louis's, Myopic Books, coffee then beers on the porch, and then Babe's on the Sunny Side has never been equaled. Worked at Fellini, too, which was a solid place to labor.

	♥ 11:16am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:12 Yeah, I know...ages ago I had a German language gig at Toilet and Douche. Biggest pain in the ass commute of my entire unglorious career. My issue is that the subways in Astoria have been a complete and utter shitshow, especially the 7 and the N. And there's been more than one stabbing lately at my local once-quiet station, whose only fault before that all these years had been a complete lack of elevators of any sort and having its outdoor stairs/handrails covered in pigeon shit alas.
	♥ 11:16am Handy Haversack: Really annoying to find out about stuff like this during Marathon, but I am psychically incapable of resisting this: www.krisgravesprojects.com...
	♥ 11:16am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Just threw in a bit more! :) Hope it helps.

	♥ 11:17am Handy Haversack: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:16 We'll have to disagree on the 7. Best train in the system. A total joy.
	♥ 11:18am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:17 Probably due to schedule differences; we can both be right! On the weekends we get screwed out by me.

	♥ 11:25am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ artbrau @11:22 Community supported art cannot be suppressed! Mutual aid! And for those keeping count...every time I throw in another $20 the one premium I am asking for is another sticker. I don't go for multiples on T-shirts, but there is enough Nzi/T*mp 💩stuck up on public places that need...erm..."improvement" and I hope to do my part.

	♥ 11:27am DonJuanTijuana: RIP Roy Ayers

	♥ 11:28am Steve Del Sol: Prescient woman, that Nina.
	♥ 11:28am Zip7: Trouble and Marty are breaking the groovalicious scale this morning!
	♥ 11:28am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: I mean, just YESTERDAY, down on the LES, some red-hat asshole assaulted a trans woman at the Delancey Street station. We need to make fascists as uncomfortable as possible.
	♥ 11:28am Officer Pupp: ↳ Song: "my sweet lord" by "nina simone" I used to have a WFMU-inspired radio show on a tiny regional station here in the UK, for the first show I played every version of Young Gifted and Black that I could find back to back.
	11:29am The Space Pope: Im feeling the spirit!

	11:29am Inner Ear Detour: I just parked my car behind someone whose license plate is "DJICE" which is might as well be DJ Icepack. A good omen!

	♥ 11:30am Officer Pupp: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:29 Ooops, yeah I only played only Nina's versions!
	♥ 11:30am Zip7: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:28 The head of a local farmworker/migrant service organization addressed a group of local Democrats earlier this week. She described the services they offer and the pressures farmworkers and migrants face. It was one of the most powerful and heartbreaking presentations I’ve ever heard. The lady who runs this operation, and the volunteers who work there, are real heroes. It’s important to remember that there are folks like this, working tirelessly to help those less fortunate, all around us.
	♥ 11:30am paddy in matawan: What was going on at Ft. Dix? Was it just a performance or a church service?
	♥ 11:32am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Also, I gotta get back to work, but will have the show on of course. Let me remind everyone that if you have any cash to spare, get yourself a stack of these in the languages applicable to your area and leave them where they can be found -- near restaurant loading doors, where deliveristas hang out, those WiFi/free call pylons, etc. I have a stack in Spanish/English that I'm leaving around places: www.redcardorders.com
	♥ 11:33am Zip7: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:32 Thanks for this!!!
	11:34am Mattynotimes: Fuck yes this is my JAM!
	♥ 11:35am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Zip7 @11:30 Of course the irony is that when there's no surplus food it's the MAGAts that will suffer the most. Ditto re tariffs. Every damn thing is made in China now. Building materials come from Canada. And lots of produce comes through if not directly from Mexico. People with $$ won't give a fuck if prices go up 30% and if eggs are $10/dozen and can afford produce hand-raised by Harvard-educated brain surgeons on co-ops in Upstate NY. They won't blink if insulin is $300/month and in most cases they can make dietary adjustments and have access to medical care that would forestall a need for insulin.
	♥ 11:35am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:34 Now we done it!
	♥ 11:35am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Zip7 @11:33 You're very welcome!
	♥ 11:36am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Me have no record player, so hoping for a CD -- if not, happy to throw any vinyl back in le prize pool!
	11:37am Mattynotimes: I’m just jamming out in the orthopedic office over here…what’s up Handy!
	♥ 11:37am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: And Marty, I LOVE your DJ Premium and got your one-hitter. Now I gotta dig up my one hitter bag....
	11:37am Paulo AD: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 Everything good?
	♥ 11:38am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 What up, Matty! Holding down the lower Upper West Side over here.
	11:38am Mattynotimes: What’s up Paulo! Yea just making sure a tear in my cartilage is all healed and it is!
	♥ 11:38am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Mattynotimes @11:37 Hope everything is OK!

	♥ 11:39am sgillies: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:37 I went for it, too. Couldn't resist.
	11:40am Mattynotimes: I’m trying to clear my evening so I can hang with you Saturday night Handy! Gonna be a killer party!
	♥ 11:40am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:39 Big time. OTOH I kind of WANT to see the the China tariffs happen. The place that will be hit the hardest? Wal-mart. ALL of their shit is made in China for the most part. Hit em where it hurts. Let the MAGAts reap what they sow. Also fuck Target, go to Costco instead.
	♥ 11:41am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ sgillies @11:39 I know, right!
	11:43am Sam: 7SD did a poll of listeners' favorite theme songs, and I think Mr. Giant Man won, or maybe tied for first.
	♥ 11:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ Sam @11:43 It was hardly scientific!
	11:45am the serpent: Marty really thinks this is his doesn’t he?
	♥ 11:45am chris_in_space: Let's not forget America declaring war on its closest ally.
	♥ 11:46am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Also, as someone who doesn't have a car but knows too much about car parts due to past cases I've worked on...Cars, and most of their components, even for "European" brands, are now largely made in Mexico. Sub-components are made in China. Bulk chemicals may or may not be made domestically, but the cans/packaging and the containers/point of sale displays for car stuff? China -- one of my relatives by marriage is VP of production for a company that does such things and he goes to Guanzhou several times a year to oversee quarterly rollouts and production schedules. Fun aside: He's about 5'6", a bit rotund, blue eyes, and once-black hair and a very lush beard that has since turned snow-white. His Chinese counterparts' nickname for him in China? "Santa Claus." And when the Chinese crew comes HERE, they get to deal with one of the print production staff, a tall White dude with a TON of facial piercings/ear piercings. My cousin calls him "Jingle Bells" due to the audible nature of his adornments.
	♥ 11:46am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chris_in_space @11:45 Yup.
	11:46am Andres: Trouble and Marty. Joe Bataan central on 'FMU! The best!
	11:49am Toothgrinder Tom: @chris_in_space when bad stuff happens, it’s good to have allies. And we had a lot of them and a remarkable amount of goodwill.
	11:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Until now.
	11:50am Marty McSorley: 13 more for Rap-O-Clapo! we can do it
	♥ 11:50am disco_nap_: Thanks, Trouble and Marty! 👯‍♀️ Have a great day, Troublemakers!
	♥ 11:52am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "You Rented a Space" by "cristina" Here for it.
	11:52am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all ...
	♥ 11:53am chresti: Yay birdies!
	♥ 11:53am Jason from Houston: Wait... No pizza?!?
	♥ 11:54am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:53 Pizza's on me, pal.
	♥ 11:54am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chris_in_space @11:45 To anyone who didn't pledge yet -- think what that $10 is. Not even ONE happy hour drink at most places; I haven't seen a $5 HH beer in years. So one premium beer/one middle range pour plus tip is $10. So "buy" WFMU that drink and send them your Hamilton!
	♥ 11:55am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble, Marty, phone peeps (Elena!), food peeps, and especially all you Modern pledgers! What a thing!
	♥ 11:55am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Yes, all glory to the volunteers and the DJs!!
	♥ 11:55am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:54 Thanks for coming through on that. I have been under the impression WFMU also sold slices.
	♥ 11:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:55 The pizza oven is full of records!
	♥ 11:56am bradford: Thanks Trouble, Marty, volunteers, and pledgers!
	♥ 11:56am chresti: Thanks Trouble and Marty!
	♥ 11:56am Jason from Houston: Thank you, Trouble. Thank you, Marty. Love you, sweet radio friends.
	♥ 11:57am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:56 I believe it.
	♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:53 On the requisition form, just cross out "CD player" and write "pizza oven."
	♥ 11:59am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Thank you Trouble, Marty, and supporting crew! And all of you here on the boards!
	♥ 11:59am sgillies: Awesome show. Thanks Trouble and Marty!
	♥ 11:59am sgillies: Fuck yeah!
	♥ 12:00pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: I will do all the swearing for you all!
	12:00pm Marie in Chicago: Ur awesome, Trouble!
	12:00pm Bonnie: Trouble-- rushed to my computer just to comment on your last talk time. FYI museums are NOT supposed to sell their collections to be able to "build a new wing" or really for any reason, even to save the museum. It's a super taboo thing that is highly frowned upon in the field and virtually never happens. Please don't tear down other struggling nonprofits, for me as a museum professional hearing that comment had a very "I'm not like other girls" vibe :(
