	12:15pm Tony Coulter: Ike! Hope you brought the Ikettes with you!
	12:17pm Carmichael: Why it's Charlie! I'd recognize those ears anywhere.
	12:19pm Ike: If I had any Ikettes right now, I'd be frolicking w/them instead of getting dragged to Walmart and Boscov's by my folks, but c'est la Xmas.
	12:21pm Doug Schulkind: Tonight at 6pm (Eastern) here on the Drummer Stream, I will be playing an hour of the uncrappiest Xmas music you've never heard. There will be NO Kaminsky Kamoutsky this evening.
	12:23pm Tony Coulter: @ Ike: What's Boscov's? Is that a chain store run by the Russian mafia?
	12:26pm glenn: nappy dugout gets a clicky star for the name alone.
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Greets, Glenn!
	🥁 12:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: FOKES!
	12:29pm glenn: avast, ye hearties!
	12:31pm Tony Coulter: The Return of the Turnip! Hey Ho!
	🥁 12:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The returnip turned up, tuned in, dropped out. Far out.
	🥁 12:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...actually, make that WAY OUT. Because Way Out is farther out than Far Out.
	12:33pm Tony Coulter: Far in, man!
	12:34pm R. Roundtree: that Funkadelic is a bad Mf'er! But as cool as back facing audience Miles Davis. L. Voag is the Way Out.
	12:35pm Ike: Tony, funny you should say that, because my folks DID find some amazing Russian Xmas ornaments there once, long ago. Overall it's merely one of the most garish department stores ever to exist, with mirrors mysteriously covering the ceiling in some sections. Bleh.
	12:36pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Roundtree!
	12:36pm pacific standard simon: I had to go away to get into costume. Now climb up on my knee and tell me what you want.
	12:37pm Charlie: This is a Busy Doing Nothing favorite!
	12:38pm pacific standard simon: There was an awesome pinup in PUNK magazine of this singer.
	12:41pm pacific standard simon: No Red Ryder BB guns, either -- you'll shoot your eye out, kid.
	12:42pm Chris from DC: Yes!
	12:45pm pacific standard simon: There shoulda been more Ron Ashton guitar in the universe. Wish he'd taken self-promotion lessons from like Johnny Thunders or something.
	12:46pm ?: OH NO NO - YOURE GETTING INTO SONIC YOUTH TERRITORY - I DON'T WANT TO HEAR DAYDREAM NATION EVER AGAIN - THAT SHIT DOES MY HEAD IN AND I WANT TO KILL!
	12:46pm DCE: that is a strange comment. One of the strangest I've ever read.
	12:47pm Tony Coulter: And here's some Buzzcocks to go with your Nappy Dugout.
	12:47pm ?: AH MY SCREEN HAS GONE WHITE - ITS STRTING, GET ME OUT OF HERE!
	12:49pm Chris from DC: Both get clicky stars.
	12:49pm Brian in UK: Hello Tony. Destroy All Monsters (Film, Book, Group) Sandwich?
	12:49pm Ike: There have been some pretty strange anonymous comments lately.
	12:50pm Ike: (...across various FMU playlists, I mean.)
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Hey Brian!
	12:51pm ?: JUST DON'T PLAY ANY FALL!
	12:51pm Carmichael: Maybe his screen sucked him inside, like Tron, and its game over.
	12:53pm pacific standard simon: Everybody's Happy Nowadays -- especially Santa Claus.
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: I'm ready for anything and loaded for bear.
	12:55pm pacific standard simon: OMG -- Bad Company TWICE in one week on WFMU. The end times have come!
	12:55pm DCE: surprised to find this under the tree
	12:56pm pacific standard simon: Loaded for beer.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Given an infinite number of DJs, the chance that Bad Company will be heard approaches a certainty.
	12:56pm glenn: play some fall!
	12:56pm Chris from DC: That was unexpected.
	12:57pm Tony Coulter: Bad Company was on sale. Marked down quite a bit, actually.
	12:57pm Stanley: @Tony - why doesn't that surprise me?
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: I went to a Bad Company in-store once in order to get Mick Ralphs to sign my Mott albums.
	12:58pm pacific standard simon: Dave Mandl played 'em on Sunday -- that was pretty odd all by itself.
	12:58pm G.Giant: "I betcha couldn't do it."
	12:58pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Stanley!!
	12:58pm Brian in UK: Eponymous & eclectic; those lazy music writers vocabulary.
	12:58pm Doug Schulkind: Looks like you're in good company, Tony.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: I wish there was something I could play that people would think was odd.
	12:59pm Stanley: This tune goes just right with the novelty reindeer antlers I am wearing just now
	12:59pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Gentle Giant! (Is that you, Santa Claus?)
	12:59pm pacific standard simon: [thinks]
	1:00pm Brian in UK: @UM Try the electric paper & comb
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: I have to go to a farewell lunch for a departing coworker who's departure is about to make my life hell.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: See you all later. Been enjoying the show in the car, Tony.
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I could try Vox Humana, Brian.
	1:02pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, Uncle Michael! Thanks for showing up!
	1:03pm Brian in UK: Oh Yes UM, 46 years since Gorilla was released.
	1:03pm Stanley: Even body noises are commonplace on this station,
	1:04pm Stanley: @Brian - Gorilla gets into my top ten of all time chart. Tu comprends.
	1:05pm Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael, can I have your co-worker's job and do it from home? Please? Thank you!
	1:07pm Tony Coulter: The verse melody here reminds me of a Jack Bruce a bit.
	🥁 1:08pm listener james from westwood: the show has been a revelation so far. lovin' it!
	1:08pm Stanley: What's this The Scottish Parliament?
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: err -- not A Jack bruce -- THE Jack Bruce.
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Listener James: Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it!
	1:09pm Eric: Thank you, thank you sir! May God bless you with all the good things of this world and the next for three hours without Christmas music.
	1:09pm glenn: david byrne. - www.casualoptimist.com...
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Stanley: Funky Bagpipes!
	1:11pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Eric!
	1:12pm pacific standard simon: Just learned that Yusef Lateef died yesterday at 93. Holy smoke!
	1:12pm Eric: Oh, and also you are playing great music.
	🥁 1:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Lateef has graduated. But 'tis also Lemmy's birthday (68), which makes this a most holy holiday indeed.
	1:14pm Stanley: Right, I'm afraid its time. The Mother-in-Law awaits. Wish me luck fellows........Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.
	1:15pm Brian in UK: Stanley, I bought Gorilla when it came out. Good luck old bean.
	1:15pm Tony Coulter: Godspeed, Stanley!
	1:16pm Gary: Loved the silent boatman -- was listening on my phone in the tub. Wouldn't have guessed it was Parliament!
	1:18pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Gary! Nothing says Christmas like Parliament in the tub.
	🥁 1:18pm listener james from westwood: new batch of chili is bubbling along nicely. gonna cut up tofu, green onion, and mushrooms for miso soup. both pair nicely with this show. all hail vacation days and the ability to cook unchecked by work!
	1:19pm pacific standard simon: Silent boatman in the bathtub? Big Pharma can fix that.
	1:19pm Brian in UK: @james got my bowl standing in line.
	1:20pm pacific standard simon: Mmmmmm....miso.
	🥁 1:30pm listener james from westwood: i'll ladle with both hands! or for greater accuracy, two ladles! marquee moon? tony's been reading my wish list to santa.
	1:38pm ?: PLEASE NO MORE GRATEFUL DEAD PUNK BANDS!
	1:38pm pacific standard simon: It says here that Marcus Malone, conga player on the first Santana album, is living on the street in Oakland. Carlos Santana is helping him out, now.
	1:38pm Chris from DC: Good heavens, I didn't realize it's Lemmy's birthday. There will be much rejoicing in a bit.
	🥁 1:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Hell yes, CfDC. Sure beats that "other" birthday everyone's been talking about, in my humble...
	1:42pm ?: Tony, are you still planning that AOR bands show you were talking about a few weeks ago! All those 70s/80s bands must have started somewhere with perhaps psychedelic/prog stuff?
	1:43pm Tony Coulter: Yep, I am -- I'm warming up right now!
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: ... with this mini–AOR block, I mean.
	1:46pm ?: yeh listened to Journey's first album the other day - some buried treasure in those long haired monster metal albums - Gillan, REO Speedwagon, Michael Bolton (Bolotin) etc.
	1:46pm People Like Us: Hello!
	1:46pm Chris from DC: Please, for the love of all that's holy, no Journey.
	1:48pm ?: suppose in the early 70s everybody was trying to be Zep/Sabbath/Purple with interesting results!
	1:48pm People Like Us: Hooray for no ironic Christmas music!
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Vicki!! Uh oh, you caught me playing Foreigner and Heart.
	1:49pm Carmichael: Tony, I'm beginning to think Clay Pigeon is spinning your set.
	1:49pm People Like Us: yes, tuned in at the right moment!
	1:49pm People Like Us: Heart being Pink Floyd!
	1:50pm pacific standard simon: And still I can't get no Montrose!
	1:50pm ?: guess the next band to be played - Queen?
	1:51pm Carmichael: Aaaahhh ... charade you are.
	1:52pm People Like Us: I did a load of Queen on my show last night, but it was all mashups
	1:52pm Chris from DC: Yes, that's very Floyd-y.
	1:53pm ?: Aerosmith/Foreigner/Heart = 70s AOR BEHEMOTHS
	1:54pm ?: WELL QUEEN BEES
	1:54pm Tony Coulter: No Queen -- Goff instead. I believe in a properly balanced meal.
	1:54pm Carmichael: Simon, I saw Montrose in '74, opening for Elvin Bishop and the Guess Who. Good times.
	1:54pm ?: Tony's psychedelic Breakfast!
	1:56pm ?: did the guitarist from Montrose join a Krautrock band in the mid 70s?
	1:56pm pacific standard simon: @Carmichael - Guess Who had fallen into decline by then, but I'd consider paying to see that.
	1:56pm Chris from DC: Queen was the first band I ever saw live. They were actually really good.
	1:57pm ?: Chris - first couple of Queen albums are glam classics as good as Bowie's Man who sold the world!
	1:58pm Carmichael: Yeah, it was when Clap For the Wolfman was out, so they were near the end. Just saw BTO last summer though, surprisingly good show. Blue Oyster Cult opened.
	1:58pm pacific standard simon: I saw Frank Zappa 4 times in 2 years, back then, and then never again.
	1:59pm ?: BOC rule ok!
	2:01pm ?: Steve Kretzmer = peter Hamill!
	2:01pm pacific standard simon: Didn't manage to catch BOC until '76-'77 (couple of times).
	2:05pm Carmichael: Rascal Reporters are veterans of the Tape Hiss sessions, eh Tony?
	2:06pm Tony Coulter: They are indeed.
	2:06pm ?: so this is RR sounding like Yes or Van der GRAAF?
	2:07pm Tony Coulter: One RR member, anyhow.
	2:08pm ?: ALTERNATIVE SONG FOR XMAS - KING MISSILE - JESUS WAS WAY COOL!
	🥁 2:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Love that crispy 1981 sound.
	2:13pm Chris from DC: This is awesome. Never heard 'em.
	2:14pm Tony Coulter: The synth player is selling copies cheap on eBay.
	2:16pm ?: Tony, were you already buying records in the 80s?
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: A Christmas yam/ham goes to the first person to guess who/what the next track is a parody of.
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: @ ?: Absolutely. I'm an old geezer.
	2:17pm ?: Elvis Presley
	2:18pm pacific standard simon: Po' Lice
	2:19pm pacific standard simon: Po' Fleas
	2:20pm Tony Coulter: "Next track" = what's on now.
	2:20pm Chris from DC: Laurie Anderson.
	2:21pm pacific standard simon: The joke was on them -- who's a millionaire now, chump.
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Yes, Chris -- you got it! Your yam is in the mail.
	2:22pm Chris from DC: Yay!
	2:23pm pacific standard simon: That was probably the Cathy in the comic strip.
	2:34pm pacific standard simon: This is like that game of adding "in bed" to cookie fortunes...
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: This Parliament track reminds me of some Motown/girl group track -- but I can't quite place it. Anyone? The Supremes, maybe?
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: This almost sounds like Brute Force.
	2:42pm Tony Coulter: The prodigal uncle returns!
	2:43pm Uncle Michael: He really does. Repeatedly.
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: (I think this is a re-record)
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Woo!
	🥁 2:46pm listener james from westwood: i need to take out some garbage but i don't want to miss a bit of this show! (sorry, brian turner or brian turner's fill-in!)
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: Taking out the garbage and working over time.
	2:49pm Doug Schulkind: @Listener James Tony's show is definitely a no-take-out-the-trash zone.
	🥁 2:51pm listener james from westwood: i have it loud enough to hear in the loo!
	🥁 2:54pm listener james from westwood: from the opening, i thought this los paranos was going to be a cover of nomi's "cold song."
	2:54pm Rich in Washington: Hi Tony! I've been listening for most of the show but from WAY OVER THERE. Unable to comment til now. There.
	2:57pm Tony Coulter: Hey Rich! Better late than butter....
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Aww crap...3:00 cometh.
	🥁 3:00pm listener james from westwood: UM, now you know how we feel each friday! tony, it's been a blast. thanks!
	3:00pm Tony Coulter: Stayeth a bit longer -- I'm going over a couple.
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Tony!
	3:05pm Tony Coulter: Thanks for coming to the holiday party, everybody! See you next week! Happy Happy Merry Merry!!

	12:46pm ?: OH NO NO - YOURE GETTING INTO SONIC YOUTH TERRITORY - I DON'T WANT TO HEAR DAYDREAM NATION EVER AGAIN - THAT SHIT DOES MY HEAD IN AND I WANT TO KILL!
	12:46pm DCE: that is a strange comment. One of the strangest I've ever read.
	12:47pm Tony Coulter: And here's some Buzzcocks to go with your Nappy Dugout.
	12:47pm ?: AH MY SCREEN HAS GONE WHITE - ITS STRTING, GET ME OUT OF HERE!
	12:49pm Chris from DC: Both get clicky stars.
	12:49pm Brian in UK: Hello Tony. Destroy All Monsters (Film, Book, Group) Sandwich?
	12:49pm Ike: There have been some pretty strange anonymous comments lately.
	12:50pm Ike: (...across various FMU playlists, I mean.)
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Hey Brian!
	12:51pm ?: JUST DON'T PLAY ANY FALL!
	12:51pm Carmichael: Maybe his screen sucked him inside, like Tron, and its game over.
	12:53pm pacific standard simon: Everybody's Happy Nowadays -- especially Santa Claus.
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: I'm ready for anything and loaded for bear.
	12:55pm pacific standard simon: OMG -- Bad Company TWICE in one week on WFMU. The end times have come!
	12:55pm DCE: surprised to find this under the tree
	12:56pm pacific standard simon: Loaded for beer.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Given an infinite number of DJs, the chance that Bad Company will be heard approaches a certainty.
	12:56pm glenn: play some fall!
	12:56pm Chris from DC: That was unexpected.
	12:57pm Tony Coulter: Bad Company was on sale. Marked down quite a bit, actually.
	12:57pm Stanley: @Tony - why doesn't that surprise me?
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: I went to a Bad Company in-store once in order to get Mick Ralphs to sign my Mott albums.
	12:58pm pacific standard simon: Dave Mandl played 'em on Sunday -- that was pretty odd all by itself.
	12:58pm G.Giant: "I betcha couldn't do it."
	12:58pm Tony Coulter: Heya, Stanley!!
	12:58pm Brian in UK: Eponymous & eclectic; those lazy music writers vocabulary.
	12:58pm Doug Schulkind: Looks like you're in good company, Tony.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: I wish there was something I could play that people would think was odd.
	12:59pm Stanley: This tune goes just right with the novelty reindeer antlers I am wearing just now
	12:59pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Gentle Giant! (Is that you, Santa Claus?)
	12:59pm pacific standard simon: [thinks]
	1:00pm Brian in UK: @UM Try the electric paper & comb
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: I have to go to a farewell lunch for a departing coworker who's departure is about to make my life hell.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: See you all later. Been enjoying the show in the car, Tony.
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I could try Vox Humana, Brian.
	1:02pm Tony Coulter: Cheers, Uncle Michael! Thanks for showing up!
	1:03pm Brian in UK: Oh Yes UM, 46 years since Gorilla was released.
	1:03pm Stanley: Even body noises are commonplace on this station,
	1:04pm Stanley: @Brian - Gorilla gets into my top ten of all time chart. Tu comprends.
	1:05pm Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael, can I have your co-worker's job and do it from home? Please? Thank you!
	1:07pm Tony Coulter: The verse melody here reminds me of a Jack Bruce a bit.
	🥁 1:08pm listener james from westwood: the show has been a revelation so far. lovin' it!
	1:08pm Stanley: What's this The Scottish Parliament?
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: err -- not A Jack bruce -- THE Jack Bruce.
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Listener James: Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it!
	1:09pm Eric: Thank you, thank you sir! May God bless you with all the good things of this world and the next for three hours without Christmas music.
	1:09pm glenn: david byrne. - www.casualoptimist.com...
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: @ Stanley: Funky Bagpipes!
	1:11pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Eric!
	1:12pm pacific standard simon: Just learned that Yusef Lateef died yesterday at 93. Holy smoke!
	1:12pm Eric: Oh, and also you are playing great music.
	🥁 1:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Lateef has graduated. But 'tis also Lemmy's birthday (68), which makes this a most holy holiday indeed.
	1:14pm Stanley: Right, I'm afraid its time. The Mother-in-Law awaits. Wish me luck fellows........Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.
	1:15pm Brian in UK: Stanley, I bought Gorilla when it came out. Good luck old bean.
	1:15pm Tony Coulter: Godspeed, Stanley!
	1:16pm Gary: Loved the silent boatman -- was listening on my phone in the tub. Wouldn't have guessed it was Parliament!
	1:18pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Gary! Nothing says Christmas like Parliament in the tub.
	🥁 1:18pm listener james from westwood: new batch of chili is bubbling along nicely. gonna cut up tofu, green onion, and mushrooms for miso soup. both pair nicely with this show. all hail vacation days and the ability to cook unchecked by work!
	1:19pm pacific standard simon: Silent boatman in the bathtub? Big Pharma can fix that.
	1:19pm Brian in UK: @james got my bowl standing in line.
	1:20pm pacific standard simon: Mmmmmm....miso.
	🥁 1:30pm listener james from westwood: i'll ladle with both hands! or for greater accuracy, two ladles! marquee moon? tony's been reading my wish list to santa.
	1:38pm ?: PLEASE NO MORE GRATEFUL DEAD PUNK BANDS!
	1:38pm pacific standard simon: It says here that Marcus Malone, conga player on the first Santana album, is living on the street in Oakland. Carlos Santana is helping him out, now.
	1:38pm Chris from DC: Good heavens, I didn't realize it's Lemmy's birthday. There will be much rejoicing in a bit.
	🥁 1:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Hell yes, CfDC. Sure beats that "other" birthday everyone's been talking about, in my humble...
	1:42pm ?: Tony, are you still planning that AOR bands show you were talking about a few weeks ago! All those 70s/80s bands must have started somewhere with perhaps psychedelic/prog stuff?
	1:43pm Tony Coulter: Yep, I am -- I'm warming up right now!
	1:45pm Tony Coulter: ... with this mini–AOR block, I mean.
	1:46pm ?: yeh listened to Journey's first album the other day - some buried treasure in those long haired monster metal albums - Gillan, REO Speedwagon, Michael Bolton (Bolotin) etc.
	1:46pm People Like Us: Hello!
	1:46pm Chris from DC: Please, for the love of all that's holy, no Journey.
	1:48pm ?: suppose in the early 70s everybody was trying to be Zep/Sabbath/Purple with interesting results!
	1:48pm People Like Us: Hooray for no ironic Christmas music!
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Vicki!! Uh oh, you caught me playing Foreigner and Heart.
	1:49pm Carmichael: Tony, I'm beginning to think Clay Pigeon is spinning your set.
	1:49pm People Like Us: yes, tuned in at the right moment!
	1:49pm People Like Us: Heart being Pink Floyd!
	1:50pm pacific standard simon: And still I can't get no Montrose!
	1:50pm ?: guess the next band to be played - Queen?
	1:51pm Carmichael: Aaaahhh ... charade you are.
	1:52pm People Like Us: I did a load of Queen on my show last night, but it was all mashups
	1:52pm Chris from DC: Yes, that's very Floyd-y.
	1:53pm ?: Aerosmith/Foreigner/Heart = 70s AOR BEHEMOTHS
	1:54pm ?: WELL QUEEN BEES
	1:54pm Tony Coulter: No Queen -- Goff instead. I believe in a properly balanced meal.
	1:54pm Carmichael: Simon, I saw Montrose in '74, opening for Elvin Bishop and the Guess Who. Good times.
	1:54pm ?: Tony's psychedelic Breakfast!
	1:56pm ?: did the guitarist from Montrose join a Krautrock band in the mid 70s?
	1:56pm pacific standard simon: @Carmichael - Guess Who had fallen into decline by then, but I'd consider paying to see that.
	1:56pm Chris from DC: Queen was the first band I ever saw live. They were actually really good.
	1:57pm ?: Chris - first couple of Queen albums are glam classics as good as Bowie's Man who sold the world!
	1:58pm Carmichael: Yeah, it was when Clap For the Wolfman was out, so they were near the end. Just saw BTO last summer though, surprisingly good show. Blue Oyster Cult opened.
	1:58pm pacific standard simon: I saw Frank Zappa 4 times in 2 years, back then, and then never again.
	1:59pm ?: BOC rule ok!
	2:01pm ?: Steve Kretzmer = peter Hamill!
	2:01pm pacific standard simon: Didn't manage to catch BOC until '76-'77 (couple of times).
	2:05pm Carmichael: Rascal Reporters are veterans of the Tape Hiss sessions, eh Tony?
	2:06pm Tony Coulter: They are indeed.
	2:06pm ?: so this is RR sounding like Yes or Van der GRAAF?
	2:07pm Tony Coulter: One RR member, anyhow.
	2:08pm ?: ALTERNATIVE SONG FOR XMAS - KING MISSILE - JESUS WAS WAY COOL!
	🥁 2:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Love that crispy 1981 sound.
	2:13pm Chris from DC: This is awesome. Never heard 'em.
	2:14pm Tony Coulter: The synth player is selling copies cheap on eBay.
	2:16pm ?: Tony, were you already buying records in the 80s?
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: A Christmas yam/ham goes to the first person to guess who/what the next track is a parody of.
	2:17pm Tony Coulter: @ ?: Absolutely. I'm an old geezer.
	2:17pm ?: Elvis Presley
	2:18pm pacific standard simon: Po' Lice
	2:19pm pacific standard simon: Po' Fleas
	2:20pm Tony Coulter: "Next track" = what's on now.
	2:20pm Chris from DC: Laurie Anderson.
	2:21pm pacific standard simon: The joke was on them -- who's a millionaire now, chump.
	2:21pm Tony Coulter: Yes, Chris -- you got it! Your yam is in the mail.
	2:22pm Chris from DC: Yay!
	2:23pm pacific standard simon: That was probably the Cathy in the comic strip.
	2:34pm pacific standard simon: This is like that game of adding "in bed" to cookie fortunes...
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: This Parliament track reminds me of some Motown/girl group track -- but I can't quite place it. Anyone? The Supremes, maybe?
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: This almost sounds like Brute Force.
	2:42pm Tony Coulter: The prodigal uncle returns!
	2:43pm Uncle Michael: He really does. Repeatedly.
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: (I think this is a re-record)
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Woo!
	🥁 2:46pm listener james from westwood: i need to take out some garbage but i don't want to miss a bit of this show! (sorry, brian turner or brian turner's fill-in!)
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: Taking out the garbage and working over time.
	2:49pm Doug Schulkind: @Listener James Tony's show is definitely a no-take-out-the-trash zone.
	🥁 2:51pm listener james from westwood: i have it loud enough to hear in the loo!
	🥁 2:54pm listener james from westwood: from the opening, i thought this los paranos was going to be a cover of nomi's "cold song."
	2:54pm Rich in Washington: Hi Tony! I've been listening for most of the show but from WAY OVER THERE. Unable to comment til now. There.
	2:57pm Tony Coulter: Hey Rich! Better late than butter....
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Aww crap...3:00 cometh.
	🥁 3:00pm listener james from westwood: UM, now you know how we feel each friday! tony, it's been a blast. thanks!
	3:00pm Tony Coulter: Stayeth a bit longer -- I'm going over a couple.
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Tony!
