Listener comments!
	12:05pm adrian in mpls: I love this Rew record ever since I heard it on one of Jesse's fill-ins this summer
	12:05pm Sem Chumbo: Good afternoon, Liz. And fancy meeting you here, AiM.
	12:05pm Greg from Bloomfield: Oh my God this is BRILLIANT. Also hi Liz!
	12:07pm Liz Berg: The first and only time I went to Atlantic City, I became obsessed with the sounds of the casino games! The only way to describe it is a building crecendo with no release.
	12:07pm doca: This is great! Hi, Liz!
	12:09pm adrian in mpls: @Liz - i hadn't thought about that! yeah, there's this tension that never gives way - which i guess helps feed the fires of slot madness
	12:13pm duke: What a racket! I mean the casino, not the sounds. Sounds are great.
	12:14pm Faye: this is so relaxing & galactic
	12:15pm Liz Berg: As the liner notes say: all of the sound design for casino games is based in C major to "optimize harmonic cohesion."
	12:17pm confused: I worked in a casino for ten years. I can't decide if this is soothing or triggering PTSD. Although the white noise of chips shuffling in a big poker room still makes me smile.
	12:17pm adrian in mpls: i need someone some optimized harmonic cohesion in my life
	12:21pm Mark: I hope the guy who posted during Troubles's show about how sick he is of Christmas music is still tuned in...
	12:23pm Mark: OK to exist doing nothing is an excellent philosophy...
	12:24pm Liz Berg: This episode will be 100% free of Christmas music. Not out of spite or anything, there are plenty of amazing xmas songs. I just feel like hearing other stuff today. And I am the boss of sound here for 3 hrs... MUA HA HA!!!
	12:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - support you Liz.
	12:33pm sphere: hey liz and the bergoids....
	12:40pm Mark: I think the Barreracudas is a typo. Plus, say it three times in a row--it's a goddamn sobriety test.
	12:42pm Mark: I'll have the Tramps Jamble with a Coke, please.
	12:51pm david from ks: ,,Play on DJLB nnnkick the fkin st out the f**kin "holidays" cuz if geoengineering stay za same ,,WE may not be here this same time next year ! peace-n-luv yall !!
	12:54pm Greg from Bloomfield: "Feels like it's rising and going up, but in reality it's going nowhere." Such is life!
	12:55pm Mike East: ugh...just had an awkward interaction with my boss who forgot that last month he told me, unprompted, that I could have Xmas Eve off.. thanks for the no xmas music guarantee, Liz!
	12:57pm robin: They're called shepard tones (shepherd?) ...invented in nj at bell labs
	1:00pm Liz Berg: Yes, thanks Robin!
	1:00pm Sem Chumbo: Yah, Liz, the one time I stepped inside a casino, those tones not resolving drove me out in a minute of two.
	1:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Mike Cratchit...
	1:05pm Mike East: exactly, Rabbit. he won't let me put another lump of coal on the fire, either.
	1:06pm Liz Berg: Dang Mike East, The Man is tryin' to ruin xmas! Such an age-old story, eh?
	1:11pm Mike East: yeah, I wish they'd make a claymation movie of my story. Luckily the desperate pleading look on my face was sufficient, so I get to stay home tomorrow.
	1:11pm Polyus: The Man gave us the week off this year. Thanks Man!
	1:12pm Liz Berg: Sounds like The Man has redeemed Himself... for now!
	1:13pm adrian in mpls: We were at least able to scrape a half-day out of the powers-that-be for work tomorrow....
	1:22pm Jason: Liz! Thanks for the Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band! Who would have expected that avant-ethnic track would turn into a disco masterpiece?
	1:33pm JakeGould: Hello!
	1:35pm Liz Berg: Hi Jake and Jason! I guess not everyone is holed up with family obligations yet this week?
	1:35pm kirk from beer city usa: I've grown to love this song!
	1:38pm JakeGould: Last night of Hanukkah tonight which is also Festivus. Done and doner.
	1:41pm Mike East: I found out last night that my sister, her husband and two 2 yr old twins are staying with us the next few days...and I had no idea.
	1:41pm ADM: When did your show change to tuesdays?
	1:42pm Liz Berg: Mike, didn't that also happen to the Griswolds?
	1:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: I had my usual peanut butter & jelly sandwich for lunch today.
	1:47pm Mike East: ha! I think you're right. Guys, I think I'm trapped inside a christmas movie.
	1:49pm Elias: Killing one's doppleganger isn't the only choice. Just the only fun choice.
	1:49pm JakeGould: There can be only one, Liz.
	1:53pm adrian in mpls: @Elias - I think Station Manager Ken has posted an image on his some of his past playlists that illustrate another doppelganger activity that might be a fun, if highly uncanny, choice as well.
	1:58pm Liz Berg: I switched to Tuesdays about a month ago, ADM.
	2:04pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: What's up Liz! Just tuned into your show here at the job. Good stuff you're playing!
	2:09pm kirk from beer city usa: Nice Dick Hyman sample
	2:16pm fascinoma: thanks for the great show today, Liz! been meaning to check out Arca's album for a while and you just gave me the nudge i needed
	2:16pm Liz Berg: Greetings ALF, kirk, and fascinoma!
	2:20pm JakeGould: Alf! No problem.
	2:23pm Ike: Excellent show! I wish I had a good doppelgänger anecdote. If I had a doppelgänger, somehow I think he'd be significantly different from me. He's a lumberjack and/or loves bland food or a sports fan or something.
	2:25pm doncaballero: Hi Liz! Are you as OBSESSED with this Onyeabor comp as I am!? I cannot get enough.
	2:25pm Mark: Love the show, but I'm calling Emperor's New Clothes on William Onyeabor.
	2:27pm Wash Tommington: Very good.
	2:29pm Liz Berg: It's certainly difficult to get excited about physical media these days, but the Onyeabor box... mmm.
	2:31pm Jesse K: <3 Onyeabor
	2:44pm Guido from Cologne: Yeah Omar!
	2:48pm Bodhi Satta: butter and eggs make great cookies.
	2:54pm Tome: Hey LiZ & everyone Happy Holiday ! been a great show too ((())))))
	2:57pm Mike East: This Black Bombaim is the tops!
	2:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Have a festive week, Liz!
	3:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Ms. Liz !
