9:07am Dan B From Upstate:

Greenbaum in the morning!

9:10am JJZ:

This song is a bit monotonous when playing it on Rock Band.

9:13am Hauswolf:

9:18am dc pat:

it looks like a 3 sandwich day

9:20am Ken:

Morgen everybody!

9:26am bsq:

9:26am dc pat:

shelly duvall is killing me...

9:29am Ken:

So let me ghet this straight, BSQ, you're sitting on my playlist, where I play and post my favorites every week, and you're asking if I can make a Spotify playlist so you can see my favorites?

9:29am Lizardner Dave:

It's beginning to look a lot like Krampus, everywhere you go.

9:31am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Here's an insane video of SD saying all over again "Hello, I'm Shelly Duvall" :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrVoJgQ7u8w

9:31am Morgen Roche:

Morgen Ken.

9:35am Cheri Pi:

Bieber needs to take acid.

9:37am Vivian:

Morning Ken! Can I simply state for the record that the glasses do not work for Bieber? bet they are fake.

9:40am dc pat:

WAITaminnit, is this yer Halloween show??

9:42am Mark:

yeah I vote for music that doesn't fucking suck

9:44am Ken:

Does anybody else want musics that dont fucking suck? Cause I can go either way today.

9:45am dc pat:

on the fence at the moment....can you play a fucking sucks song so I can decide?

9:46am Cecile:

Morning!
Could you play in In Time by Sly and the Family Stone?
That does not suck.

9:46am BSI:

I prefer music that's just plain old fucking.
But then, I'm funny that way.
Do carry on, Boss Freedman.

9:46am Cecile:

Also, Cathode Ray by Screen Vinyl Image has a John Carpenter movie sample in it.

9:47am Cecile:

BSI! My machine gun jetpack game now has a flying metal dragon called "Mr. Cuddles!"

9:48am still b/p:

DFS music, please.
That woman 'n smoke pic file is called "model_bombing." Keili and Liz sing the song for it -- "We like the cowls that go boom."

9:48am Cecile:

LOLOLOLOLOLOL! I knew about the Bieber nailpolish. I was big into nailpolish fandom for a while.

9:48am Cecile:

L'Trimm - Cars that Go Boom.
They are Tigra and Bunny. And they like the boom.

9:49am BSI:

Where's my machine-gun jetpack, dammit? Screw the GAME, I'll take the real item! I've got STUFF to do!

9:53am Cecile:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzxi8nid9BQ

9:57am Hauswolf:

Finalich!!!

9:58am BSI:

....definitely more thrilling than my worn-out-sneaker joyrides, that fo-damn-sho.

9:59am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Cecile,
For a moment I thought you said you were big into Bieber fandom for a while. But then I said to myself: Nah. That's Cecile, you moron. I can't be true.
*All glory to hypno-cecile. *

9:59am Cecile:

If I liked him, i would like him. I don't. it's cool others do.

10:00am moose:

how i love it when fmu and futurama intersect

10:00am still b/p:

"Barry Steakfries" is the Jetpacker dude? Does he have a gal named Honey Bloominonion?

10:00am dc pat:

"Haiden"

10:01am Cecile:

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

10:01am still b/p:

We like the onions that go bloom.

10:02am paul:

file under "songs that will never get old"

10:02am G:

Could it be that bsq didn't believe you actually play any of your really favorite music on your show?

10:04am dc pat:

I know someone named Bunny

10:04am Luke:

I'm here Ken, are you happy now.

10:07am Concerned listener:

Do you think it would be helpful to add a column to the playlist titled DFS in order to help your listeners determine whether music does indeed suck? I'm having a really hard time determining into which category these songs fall into.

10:08am me:

oh good god not shoop! I am become death!

10:09am Cheri Pi:

Nonsense, these are songs about sucking and fucking; I think it's brilliant.

10:10am trjish:

"easy listening"

10:10am G:

codes:

KAT = Ken-Approved Track
HSP = A Heavily Sarcastic Play
RS = Random Selection, Ken has no idea what he thinks about it
DFSBT = Does Fucking Suck Big Time

10:11am Cheri Pi:

Oh Ken, I think I love you...

10:11am Giselle:

I'm loving this set with Shoop!

10:12am Mark:

Hi Shelley!

10:12am Cecile:

this is a KAT

10:12am Shelly Duvall:

Thanks for the support, Ken.

10:12am listener mark:

good morning Ken
"I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
good morning everybody

10:13am BSI:

Shelly do what?

10:13am scottT:

sounds more like olive oyle

10:13am Carmichael:

Good morning from the Left Coast, Kenneth and listeners.

10:13am Cecile:

The only impression I can do is Shelly Duvall singing as Olive Oyl.

10:14am dc pat:

Let's hear it!

10:15am Shelly Duvall:

I was NOT extra-virgin, or first pressing either.

10:16am james white:

yank you off? really?

10:17am Cheri Pi:

Screw Rush!

10:17am Rush:

Bring on the HATAZ!

10:18am Mike East:

I just listened to that Geddy Lee interview on the bus! Hilarious. Nardwuar is amazing.

10:19am Giselle:

yeah Geddy was so disappointing. i thought he had a sense of humour based on the "take off song" guess I was wrong. an embarrassment to Canadians

10:20am Carmichael:

Do.Ka.Ka.

10:21am Mike East:

Yeah, he definitely did NOT get it. That's what I like about Nardwuar though, its good either way

10:22am fred von helsing:

yeah baby yeah

10:22am Richard from Venezuela:

Good morning ken and all the listeners.

10:23am Lizardner Dave:

This is a song with melody and hooks. What is it doing on this show?

10:24am Song Category Monitor:

RS -- random selection, ken had no time to listen to it beforehand and vet it out for excess melody

10:24am Ken:

Richard! How are things in Venezuela?

10:24am Cecile:

I saw a picture of WIld Flag, and they all looked like girls who would not talk to me.

10:25am Cheri Pi:

If you want to hear songs about Canadian-separatist dragons named Tom Sawyer, then Rush is your band. Personally. I'll take Salt N Pepa ..

10:26am Cecile:

I heard a little of the Geddy interview. He sounded like a really dickish guy I know.

10:26am fred von helsing:

there once was a day when Rush ruled the waves of upstate

10:26am dc pat:

Cecile: Mary is nice, she teaches kids how to play guitar and then sets up a gig for them once a year. All the kids in my neighborhood take lessons from her.

10:26am Cecile:

Bet Neil Peart would have got it.

10:26am pierre:

looks like this would have to be listen as archive for me … F***k
(i'm going out to a crappy meeting…boohoohoo…)

Anyway, can't stop me, i'm still saying a MASSIVE BONJOUR TO ALL !
oh and Ken, had fun browsing the "no breast, no request blog"

10:27am Geddy:

I'm a freakin pompous rock star. RESPECT.

10:27am Cecile:

that's cool, dcp. They just all look so indie-chick perfect.
and tiny.

10:27am Mark:

yeah and Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss are very nice people too.

10:28am Cheri Pi:

Bonjour Pierre & see you later alligator!

10:28am dc pat:

yeah, I hear ya. Kind of unapproachable.

10:28am Lizardner Dave:

Rush-Popularity=Sparks.

10:28am Richard from Venezuela:

@ken personal insecurity on high levels. and so much heat. 34ºC in Puerto Ordaz.

10:29am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

So Geddy Lee had the opportunity to redeem himself and he screwed up everything?

10:29am bbell:

Oh the golden age of air travel, before the passengers started dressing in windbreakers and track pants like a guy named Fat Tony.

10:29am Cheri Pi:

I bet Neal Peart would have talked to ya Cecile. I like Neil, he's just in the wrong band, oh well...

10:29am Cecile:

I mean, I look like a Bernese Mountain Dog with glasses and rave like a maniac.

I love Sparks.

10:30am Cecile:

Neil Peart and Nardwuar needs to happen. Or Neil Peart and Clay Pigeon.

"How much do you weigh, Neil?"

10:32am Mike East:

I've heard Neil Peart is a much bigger dick than the other guys. The documentary I watched made him out as the quiet one who never wants to talk to fans.

10:33am Richard from Venezuela:

that bouncing on Salt N Pepper gif makes my day. Thanks ken.

10:33am Cheri Pi:

I bet Neal would talk to this chat board; we're not like the other fans.

10:34am Ken:

Clay Pigeon Interviewing Nardwuar! Im gonna make it happen.

10:34am Cecile:

Really? Is it standoffishness or pathological shyness? I can understant the second.
That's disappointing. But not surprising, I guess.

I'm not like the other fans because i'm not one!

10:34am Geddy:

Yes, ya'll are even more annoying and aggressive! :-P

10:34am Ken:

Not at all Richard. That's what Fox News is for.

10:35am Cheri Pi:

"Neil, what kind of heavy drugs have you ever taken?"

exactly! I think Neal would enjoy talking to non-fans like us...At least the imaginary Neil would

10:35am Cecile:

i actually like the FL song. It's an original isn't it? It's quite good.

10:35am BSI:

Tish!

10:36am Cecile:

it's like the imaginary Julia Child in Julie and Julia. LOL!

10:36am dc pat:

you spoke French!

10:36am Lizardner Dave:

Peart was shy to begin with and then his daughter and wife died 10 months apart. That'll screw you up pretty good.

10:37am R I S K Y:

BLASPHEMY IS GOOD FOR ME! GO KEN! YAAAHHHOOO!

10:37am Ken:

I hate Rush so much. One of these days, I'm gonna kill me a Rush. Then I'm gonna turn in my badge.

10:37am Cheri Pi:

Imaginary Neil is also pronounced "Peert"

10:39am Cecile:

Yeah, exactly LD. It is tough.

LOL! Cheri.

God, i wish I could quit fighting this cold....

10:40am Carmichael:

Just throw it in the water, Ken. And walk away.

10:41am Cheri Pi:

"Rusty Sheriff's badge" discussed here: http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/mis/2608355146.html

10:42am bbell:

But today's dj-ing is excellent!

10:42am Giselle:

As a cashier I rang up Alex Lifeson once. the total came to $21.12 and I said "like the album huh?" and he didn't get it

10:43am Carmichael:

Ken's demon "brother" Andy?

10:44am Cecile:

LOL, Giselle!

10:47am Mark:

God lord who gives a shit about Rush

10:47am Ken:

Take it back Mark!

10:49am Aaron in JCity:

hoboken sewage stench removed: http://www.spincleanrecordwasher.com/

10:50am Giselle:

oh yeah..Geddy doing Neil! Thank you from Toronto

10:50am Mark:

do I have to?

10:50am Cecile:

wow, this was the first time Rush was ever listenable for me (apart from Take Off.)

10:50am Geddy:

Only if you're submissive.

10:51am listener mark:

Rush ! Woot !

10:51am dc pat:

huh, Niel doing a straight beat. Is the excessive drumming what's wrong with Rush?

10:51am Lizardner Dave:

You know, Ken hates cats too. I sense a pattern.

10:52am λɯəɹəɾ:

Geddy sounds like just a normal guy singing if you play any of his songs at 50% speed

10:52am Carmichael:

Make it STOP!

10:52am Cheri Pi:

This Rush song could use a few comma zeros...

10:52am BSI:

I'll second the cats thing. That's right.

10:53am Canadian Government:

Although you are not legally required to do so, you may like to know that you are currently meeting minimum Canadian content broadcasting requirements.

10:53am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Good antidote song!

10:53am JT:

there was a time when the most popular band among internet users was Rush. Those days are gone. Ken.

10:53am Ken:

I love cats. I just don't think they belong on the internet.

10:54am listener mark:

Did Ken lose a bet with Clay?

10:55am Cheri Pi:

have you seen the new Hello WFMU Kitty yet? It's on my facebook page, I'll add all today's chat board users...

10:55am BSI:

Cats are fine, of course.
On a bed of rice with a splash of sriracha, natch.

10:55am Carmichael:

What in the name of Corn Weenie Christ is going on here?!?! I like ol' Neil and all, but I could hear this on the wacky morning zoo.

10:56am Lizardner Dave:

Don't lie to us Ken. You hate Rush, cats, and pot brownies.

10:59am Mark:

I think you need to reverse the song and artist, Neil Young (Have You Forgotten) is the song

11:00am adam:

I was just telling my friend that Neil Young was in a band with Rick James...

11:00am Cecile:

If we're going to go Canadian cheese, play some Glass Tiger (ugh) or Deadmaus (who I actually really like). Gowan!

11:01am Carmichael:

Or just radio silence for a few minutes. Out of respect for something or other.

11:04am PMD:

Ken, do you make these video loops?

11:05am PMD:

@Cheri Pi - add me!

11:06am Cecile:

I don't do Facebook, but I think I follow you on Twitter already.

11:07am Cheri Pi:

@PMD-ok!

11:07am moose:

flying lizards hands to take, i think it changed my life this morning, i'd never before heard

11:11am Canadian Government:

If only Bertrand Burgalat were quebecois, you'd be totally on a Canuck roll.

11:11am PMD:

Does anyone know of a good tutorial for Twitter. I'm serious. I gotta get with the times, years later.

11:12am Twit Tutorial:

Think. Or not (optional). Type. Send. Done.

11:12am Cecile:

You just type in 140 characters of anything you want.
If you like someone, you follow them. If they like you they follow you. I mean, I got it, and I'm a little dense about social media.

11:13am Mark:

many who tweet leave out the thinking part

11:13am Twittorial:

@Mark: Who knew!

11:14am trjish:

To read, you can bypass the qwerty-type limitations of the twitter UI and pick up the feeds in an rss reader.

11:14am Twittorial:

An ass reader often works better, honestly;y.

11:15am Cecile:

yup!

11:15am Carmichael:

trjish, the common language on this board is English. Please translate.

11:15am PMD:

@trjish, that's what I needed. Now I must go learn about RSS feeds. Yeah, I know. Amazing that I can comment on a comment board.

11:15am trjish:

arss

11:16am PMD:

I just find it too much information to keep up with! And I only follow like 20 people.

11:16am Vivian:

Okay, this song grates on my nerves. File under Songs that S**k

11:17am PMD:

OK, sorry, back to our regularly scheduled music disscussion. Thanks all!

11:17am Cecile:

PMD, you can also get email updates for heavy tweeters - they put the thread in in email.

11:17am Carmichael:

@PMD: But it's important that you know they are sitting on the couch.

11:18am kate:

love the bertrand! great show!

11:18am Mark:

Shelley is so friendly

11:18am BSI:

God Bless Sudden Infant. Forever.

11:18am BSI:

(no relation)

11:18am Twittorial:

But is it an Ironic Play, or a Song that Totally Fucking Sucks Big Time? Let's keep the record accurate.

11:19am Shelly Duval:

Hello, I'm Shelly Duval

11:19am tony:

Ken: Do you have "Hello, I'm Andy Breckman"? It's climbing the charts right now.

11:21am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

11:24am Carmichael:

Is the smoking lady Karen Black?

11:24am Dan B From Upstate:

And if you have a really long url you want to share via twitter, but want to shorten it to fit, there's a url shortening service for twitter at http://urlshorteningservicefortwitter.com

11:24am Cecile:

This song is my life at the bus stop in DT St Paul.

11:24am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

That Puffy.gif reminds me that has been ages since the last time Puffy AmiYumi was played in here.

11:25am Twittorial:

Image Live from Studio A? No wonder Ken doesn't care what tracks he plays!

11:25am Michael:

Is that Fox anchor rocking out to Rush?

(Great antidote to her: Gomez and Morticia, the Ideal Couple.)

11:26am Carmichael:

Clay would play Smokin' in the Boys Room.

11:28am abby:

Carmichael, i think that's from the recent movie a serious man.

11:28am Ken:

Twittorial, I dont like what you're puttin' down.

11:30am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Dan B,
I believe the correct direct URL is
http://urlshorteningservicefortwitter.com/?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=SM&utm_campaign=blog,0,0,0,

11:30am Randy in NC:

Wow, this has some amazing surround sound processing. Bleeps are coming from all over.

11:32am Ken:

There are a zillion URL shorteners, most notably bit.ly and if you use a twitter reader like Tweetdeck or Hootsuite, the URLs will be shortened automagically. I use Tweetdeck. Makes it easy to filter out all the MORONS.

11:33am Woody:

The go-go dancers getting dressed in the apartment next to mine are loving this mix (I'm blasting it). Gonna be a fun night!

11:33am Lizardner Dave:

I like tinyurl. Then again, I also like cats and Rush.

11:33am Dan B From Upstate:

Good point, fofo. I forgot about the commas and the zeroes. (And yes, I use tweetdeck. It's very nice.)

11:34am BSI:

Oh yeh, right. Twitter. Forgot all about it. Haven't logged in in weeks. What did I miss?

11:34am Carmichael:

Whoa, Woody. Are there still "go-go dancers"?? Are they wearing white boots? You're a lucky man.

11:35am Lizardner Dave:

@BSI. Nothing, It's been in reruns and to maximize ad revenue the last 10 characters of each post are now used for commercials.

11:36am Woody:

It's a profession alive and doing well. I picked my apartment wisely ;)

11:37am Curious:

When did your nickname become Woody, Woody? Before or after you had them as neighbors?

11:38am BSI:

Doctor Sphincter?

11:39am don:

says what?

11:40am WebHamster Henry:

Gee Ken - that's talk radio at its best.

11:40am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

This is the most awesome radio prank loop ever.

11:41am Ken:

That was not a loop!!

11:42am Dan B From Upstate:

Aw, I miss Phil Hendrie. A master troll is ever there was one. I could only hear him when travelling. He never botherd coming to my market.

11:44am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

I mean Phil Hendrie was doing himself a loop. The other fella didn't noticed. I mean Phil Hendrie was doing himself a loop. The other fella didn't noticed. I mean Phil Hendrie was doing himself a loop. The other fella didn't noticed. I mean Phil Hendrie was doing himself a loop. The other fella didn't noticed.

11:44am Cocaine:

Nasalize THIS.

11:47am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Dan B,

Let's not forget Bob Lassiter!! xD

11:51am Ken:

Yeah, Phil Hendrie was absolutely amazing until he got stupid and political.

11:51am Cecile:

Is this that Australian experimental radio show?

11:54am Dan B From Upstate:

Can't say I'm familiar with Bob Lassiter. I wikied him quickly, looks like there was some great stuff, but most of it is before my time. I'm sad to have missed it.

11:54am Ken:

Cecile, yes it is.

11:55am Ken:

Bob Lassiter, Neil Rodgers & Phil Hendrie = Best Talk Show Hosts Ever.

11:55am das:

This is like one of those stories they used to show late at night, the ones kids would watch hoping to see spanish boobies

11:56am dc pat:

Hotel Bloedel..

11:58am Dan B From Upstate:

Maybe a best of Bob Lassiter is due like the best of firesign theater last summer?

11:58am ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Dan B,
This guy made a tribute blog to Lassiter. There are some few clips in there!
http://boblassiter.blogspot.com/

11:59am Dan B From Upstate:

Thanks, fofo. I'll check it out when I get home tonight.

12:00pm Mark:

thank you, Ken!

12:01pm ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

No prob. Be sure to check Mr Airstream. ;)

12:01pm Insult Comedian:

Twittorial likes Ken's show, and kids because he loves.

12:02pm ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ < fofo!:

Thanks for the show, Ken! Till next episode!

1:49am JS:

Let me just say, Ken, that I LOVED this show (as so many others). Any kind of coolness I own in the social media I just steal from you. Quality, fun, and nothing but quality fun. You are the best. (That Lyme disease guy from Maine . . . )
