9:02am duke:

The last 5 minutes is always the longest.

🥁

9:03am Andy Rooney:

You ever wonder why they call it "freeform"? It sure isn't free. Look at this pledge form I have here on my desk.

9:06am annie:

we may be early, but we got the best seats

🥁

9:12am listener james from westwood:

No getting stuck next to the kitchen or the loo today!

🥁

9:13am duke:

This didn't work out well for me at all. I have to go to a meeting at 10:00.

9:17am annie:

we'll throw a newspaper down on your seat, duke, and you can slip out of that meeting early you brought the dummy right?

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

Hi gang! Today's show doesn't officially start until 10:30. I had to go to parent-teacher conferences at my kid's school this morning. Got out earlier than I expected. I will come on the stream and do some unofficial broadcasting leading up to the 10:30 "real" start. Just give me a few minutes to set things up!

9:23am annie:

we had to ram the door down doug!!

🥁

9:23am listener james from westwood:

I nearly got eaten by a squirrel out here!

🥁

9:24am listener james from westwood:

Srsly, howdy, Doug, and all! Happy Friday and hope it's as sunny and cool where y'all are as it is here!

9:25am annie:

misty mountains here, ljfw, might be that way all day. cool temps around 60-ishyou stayin' dry up there? we certainly got pummeled by that rain.

9:26am Doug Schulkind:

As a resident of Squirrel Hill, I formally apologize to you, Listener James.

I'm coming on the air any minute!

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

Now playing on the stream:

Dana Gillespie "Dead"

I wouldn't DREAM of interrupting this scorcher!

9:28am Gary:

Yay!

🥁

9:30am listener james from westwood:

@annie, we had rain midweek, heavy at times, so this is the post-rain reward. Return of some actual fall following some low-grade summer. Do not want.

9:32am d¢ pät:

Hola, wie gehts?

9:33am annie:

yo pat!

9:33am d¢ pät:

Ugh, parent/teacher conferences...

9:35am d¢ pät:

ANNIE!

9:38am annie:

how am i going to run to the post office when there's radio!?

9:38am Gary:

Yes! Looking forward to it. Please feel free everyone to invite your friends with ears; www.facebook.com...

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

Benny Soebardja "Pensive"

9:39am d¢ pät:

How am I going to work when there's Indonesian music???

9:39am tikk:

No live GTDS! Boo. Oh, but late, secret surprise grey market GTDS! Yay.

9:40am Gary:

Super-love for this guy!

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

@d¢ pät
Throw off your shackles!

@tikk
Hey, come over here in the shadows and listen.

@Gary
Yay you!

9:41am tikk:

Appreciate you not jumping in on Dana Gillespie Doug, I was actually googling the lyrics to figure out who that was.

🥁

9:41am listener james from westwood:

This is one fine track, this is.

9:42am Doug Schulkind:

@tikk
I would never jump on Dana Gillespie. Unless she asked very politely.

9:43am Alex In Illinois:

The link to this playlist does not appear on the WFMU main page. Hey! We are up to 75%!! The cow is moving!

9:43am d¢ pät:

@DrummerSome: did you say this was Indonesian music? Is there anything that place CAN'T do?

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

@Alex in Illinois
The show actually hasn't "started" yet. This here is some free before-show radio. I scheduled the show to start at 10:30, so the playlist won't go "live" until then.

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

The Foot Steps "Pumpa Joe" (from Zambia)

9:48am Gary:

Is the real show going to be as awesome as this pre-show?

9:50am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

Otha Turner "Shimmy She Wobble" (from Mississippi)

9:50am Doug Schulkind:

@Gary
I have only begun to awesome.

9:51am annie:

i loved the joe hill show, doug... that ongoing struggle for worker's rights will always stick in my craw.

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks Annie. That one had me moist in the eyeballs.

9:53am annie:

yup, i got a wet face , too..

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

Charlie Parker "Lover Man"

A few years back, I did an entire show of Lover Man versions: wfmu.org...

9:56am Alex In Illinois:

@Doug: Thanks. It's the nicest pre-show I have ever encountered. It has me treating my coworkers nicely. I kind of feel special being part of the group that navigated our way to this list through the side entrance. It's great that the pre-show has started off with 75% of the pledge goal and the cow moving. I hope it hits 100% by the end of the actual show.

9:58am doca:

Hi, Doug and the usual and unusual gang over here.

Scott McDowell once did a 3-hour show only of Lonely Woman versions wfmu.org...

9:59am Uncle Michael:

I'm so confused.

10:01am annie:

relax and take you pill mikey

🥁

10:01am listener james from westwood:

NOW PLAYING:

Karen Dalton "It's Alright"

10:10am d¢ pät:

wow, this is amazing.

🥁

10:11am Artie:

Doug's pre-show will be a hard act to follow.

10:12am Doug Schulkind:

I pity the fool who's on next.

10:14am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

Lee Hazlewood w/Suzi Jane Hokum "For a Day Like Today"

🥁

10:16am Artie:

Mental image, brought on by previous comment: Doug, in glorious Doug-fro, cut in the style of a Mr. T-fro.

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

NOW PLAYING:

Louis Moholo's Viva-La-Black "Joyful Noises"

10:24am holland oats:

Tenores de Oniferi "Gosos di Gavino"

[Last track before we hit the big time.]

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

Ho Ho Ho, H.O.!

10:25am AndrewC.:

Is it only Sardinians and Tuvans who sing like this? Anyone else?

10:26am Doug Schulkind:

@AndrewC
Jimmy Durante?

10:31am Webhamster Henry:

We unschoolers don't get parent-teacher conferences.

10:32am d¢ pät:

@AndrewC: Eliot Sharp

10:32am Holly in NC:

Well heck! Tuned in thinking I'd missed 1/2 the show & happily not!

Good morning & Happy Friday everyone!

🥁

10:32am Brian in UK:

Buenos dias mis amigos.

We need a Joe Hill right now.

10:32am Gary:

Hi Holly!

10:33am Doug Schulkind:

Hello Holly in UK, Brian in NC!

Wait a minute.

🥁

10:34am Brian in UK:

Doug, you have a five Friday month to collect. To collect what, I hear you ask.

10:34am Uncle Michael:

Doug, stop commenting on my FB post and concentrate, dammit.

10:35am davex:

Hi Doug and all! I just tuned in late - and missed nothing!

10:36am Gary:

Whoa, seriously?

10:37am Pedro G.:

The current Major League Baseball postseason structure is an abomination that proves nothing.

10:38am Doug Schulkind:

Right on time, davex! Welcome aboard Pedro G!

10:38am Holly in NC:

What Gary said! I'm just thinking of what it would be like back in the (way) day trying to do this show with nothing but vinyl & cassettes and now I'm going to have a dj nightmare tonight! Slightly better than a waitress/server nightmare, which I still have on occasion despite years out of the business.

10:38am davex:

For bonus points, all the songs should be from 1990.

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

1890.

10:40am Holly in NC:

Normally I'd prefer to be in the UK, but today here in NC is PERFECT. 61F, crisp and brilliantly sunny, no clouds. I'll take it.

10:40am Uncle Michael:

Pedro, pffft.

10:41am Alex In Illinois:

Northumbrian small pipes! OR maybe lowland small pipes!

🥁

10:41am listener james from westwood:

And how awesome is it that this set o' wee songs still follows a theme? 'Tis a pro we're lis'nin tae.

🥁

10:42am listener james from westwood:

Vashti! Always a marvel at any length.

10:43am d¢ pät:

hear, hear, LJFW. This is how it's done.

10:43am davex:

1790?

But seriously, this is a great set of 90.

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

It themes you're right, Listener James!

10:43am d¢ pät:

there will be about 90 songs at this rate...

10:43am Holly in NC:

Bravo, Doug

10:43am Alex In Illinois:

Watersons!!?

🥁

10:44am Brian in UK:

How are we in the UK ever going to see 'Sex & Broadcasting'?

10:45am AndrewC.:

I once decided after listening to this song that the need to preserve apples was the reason for all popular music. That's clearly nonsense.

10:45am d¢ pät:

How about Wagner? just kiddin...

10:45am davex:

@Brian: And not just the UK!

10:45am AndrewC.:

Don't we get a dvd for backing it on kickstarter?

10:45am Uncle Michael:

I think Doug's promoting the upcoming Ron Howard film.

🥁

10:45am listener james from westwood:

With one short folk song after another, this set feels like a kickass Sublime Frequencies album.

🥁

10:46am listener james from westwood:

I wonder why Howard didn't go with "Moby-Dick" for the film? Or even "Dicky-Moe."

🥁

10:46am Brian in UK:

@davex ofcourse my friend.

10:47am ?:

Good Morning Drummer and all Somes

10:47am Uncle Michael:

Howard has decided that fucking up "true" stories is his new thing.

10:48am davex:

Good morning ?.

10:49am doca:

@Doug: You should do a 3-hour one-song show

10:49am Gary:

Ridiculously sweet tune from Kenya

🥁

10:49am listener james from westwood:

Ohhhhh, I see, it's not actually "Moby-Dick." Only just heard about this earlier this a.m. and glossed over it.
@doca: One 3-hour cut? Bryce might sue!

10:50am Holly in NC:

I adore this song

10:50am holland oats:

freak folk, cool

10:50am Doug Schulkind:

@doca
Don't tempt me.

10:51am doca:

@james: yeah I wrote and thought "maybe I should leave it to Bryce"

@Doug: I bet you can do more than one!

10:52am David Herskovits:

90 minutes of Schulkind is like 6 hours of a merely mortal DJ.

10:52am Pedro G.:

I really like the Royals, Uncle Michael, and am glad for their fans and all. But the Washington Nationals were the best team in baseball this year and Uncle Bud's post-season system is a freakish demolition derby, not an organic culmination of the great summer marathon.

🥁

10:52am Brian in UK:

Doug, just made a pledge and added a pet (the picture is there) but not asked for payment. Did it take?

10:52am marcury:

? Opps! Forgot to add my handle!

🥁

10:53am Brian in UK:

Wag City.

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

Jaysus!

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

If I can stop giggling hysterically, I will come on the air in a moment and talk of wagging and mooing!!!!

11:00am Webhamster Henry:

The Clowns is the same tune that Charlie Chaplin sings a the end of Modern Times.

🥁

11:01am listener james from westwood:

100%!! Yeeeeeeah, boyyyyyy! Congrats, Doug! (And thanks again for the fine-ski Steinski!)

🥁

11:01am Brian in UK:

Recalibrate immediately.

11:05am Uncle Michael:

Pedro, I will try to remember to defend the postseason format during my show. I'm no fan of Selig and I think a 3 game WC play-in might be an improvement, but I've embraced the format.

11:06am Doug Schulkind:

THANK YOU Listener James
THANK YOU Brian in UK
THANK YOU Mr. C
THANK YOU David H. in Brooklyn

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

11:06am Brian in UK:

11:12am listener james from westwood:

Heh, thinking "Kill Bill Pt 1" right now, and not only b/c I rewatched "Pulp Fiction" last night for the 1st time in a good decade for the 20th anniversary this week and am thus in a Tarantino mood.

11:14am Holly in NC:

Congratulations, Doug!!!!! Wish I could give more :-(

🥁

11:15am listener james from westwood:

Who wouldn't want to pledge for a human radio station? He's every doggone thing!

11:16am Uncle Michael:

Don't make me break out *my* Piero Piccione.

11:17am northguineahills:

I wondered what happened this morning.

11:17am marcury:

Congrats on reaching the goal! Just pledged, but may have done it to the station and not the stream, but you know I've got your back.

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

11:25am Dean:

🥁

11:27am Andrew Waterloo:

I saw Jaap Blonk perform last week.

🥁

11:28am Brian in UK:

Doug, we used to do that with magnetic words on our 'fridge.

11:28am Dean:

Where was Jaap Blonk?

11:29am Doug Schulkind:

Heya Stanley and Hiya Dean!

11:30am Doug Schulkind:

I am finding it a terrific challenge to keep up with the comments in betwixt playing all these short-ass tunes. Apologies to anyone I've missed!

11:33am Doug Schulkind:

Only one channel on this track. Who needs two?!

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

Feels so good when you get the other channel back...

11:37am Andrew Waterloo:

Jaap Blonk did a small performance in Guelph.

11:41am Gary:

🥁

11:42am Brian in UK:

Where is Hugo?

🥁

11:43am listener james from westwood:

Weird how limits (like the 90-sec length today) can be liberating sometimes.

11:44am Doug Schulkind:

Probably in Kuala Lumpur, Brian in UK.

🥁

11:46am Brian in UK:

Hmmmm Singapore Laksa.

🥁

11:47am duke:

Did you save my seat?

11:48am Doug Schulkind:

Got it right here in my back pocket, duke.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James
I'd rather be constricted by unlimited freedom than liberated by limitations. But I essentially agree with you.

🥁

11:49am Brian in UK:

duke we never leave our friends behind!!!!
Great show Doug, think I better had go.

11:49am annie:

i was reading the paper, duke, doug grabbed the seat to keep it warm

🥁

11:50am duke:

I wondered why the seat was so warm.

11:52am Mr C:

Great show today Doug...the touchstones of what make this a special listening experience. Thanks. And the great Carlos Lyra too!

11:53am Uncle Michael:

I hope you'll all join me in the next room. wfmu.org...

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

THANKS Reverend Doctor Mr. C! Your pledge went in the total this week and knocked us outta the park.

🥁

Thanks a ton for the tuneful tapas!

12:01pm marcury:

Great Show!

12:02pm Doug Schulkind:
