Listener comments!
	9:06pm Pat Byrne: Is there anybody ALIVE out there?!?!
	9:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Nobody here but us chickens!
	9:08pm JakeGould: Who you calling an anybody?
	9:09pm Listener Robert: I'm still thinking about last year when Clay Pigeon brought down the $ at Hoof & Mouth singing the number you spun to open tonight.
	9:10pm JakeGould: FWIW, I saw “Sex and Broadcasting” tonight and met Pseu Braun in person. So add that to my non-list.
	9:12pm Listener Robert: And I shook Fred Keenan's hand after the official premier Wed.
	9:13pm Pat Byrne: Oh, nice! I saw her post a picture from that.
	9:13pm Listener Robert: I hope I didn't dirty his popcorn, but am glad I didn't catch whatever's going around WFMU from that handshake.
	9:14pm JakeGould: She did post pic from that? Where? On the Bookface?
	9:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like when you plays rekkids. The chickens - they can listen to what they want...
	9:19pm Smilty69: If Jim Carroll made it to the NBA would he still be a rocker?
	9:20pm BadGuyZero: Hiya!
	9:22pm Pat Byrne: It was Insragram ^
	9:25pm JakeGould: @PatByrne: Ha! Here it is. www.instagram.com...
	9:31pm Ian: Pat! Always amazing brother.
	9:36pm Tommy Haynes: Why don't I have that Jim Carroll album by now
	9:40pm Pat Byrne: Thanks Ian! Keep on Keepin' on.
	9:40pm Pat Byrne: Anyone else notice that this sounds a lot like "Sugar Sugar"?
	9:43pm JakeGould: Anyone see Jonathan Richman at the Bell House last night?
	9:45pm Listener Robert: No, but I saw J.R. at the Bowery Ballroom in Nov. Wish I hadn't been a bit sick, but at least my friend had a good time & was satisfied not everyone's stuff I like is too weird for her.
	9:46pm sugarwolf: Hi all!!
	9:47pm JakeGould: Hi singular sugarwolf!
	9:48pm Listener Robert: Did he sing about Vermeer & his daughter at the Bell House?
	9:48pm JakeGould: I didn’t see him. Just asking.
	9:51pm Listener Robert: But somebody else might've. Anyway, apparently he'd been singing a while about how sexy Vermeer's paintings are, but then he told us something he'd recently learned: that a lot of the works attributed to Vermeer were really his daughter, experts now say.
	9:51pm JakeGould: “Hey! Ho! Let’s Go: Ramones and the Birth of Punk” (Apr 10 2016 - Jul 31 2016) www.queensmuseum.org...
	9:52pm Listener Robert: I meant BY his daughter.
	9:57pm BadGuyZero: I'm 45. But I'll complete a lap around the sun next month and turn 46.
	9:58pm BadGuyZero: Magnanimous means metal items stick to you, right?
	9:59pm Marc15: Millennisks were born 1981–1996
	10:00pm JakeGould: My only issue with millennials: Too polite when they could be more assertive and they don’t jaywalk in NYC.
	10:00pm sugarwolf: Did you get any 45s for your birthday, BGZ? I have a friend turning 45 this year and I think I want to get some singles to give as a birthday present.
	10:00pm Marc15: I'm an old Gen X-er, born during the LBJ Administration
	10:01pm JakeGould: Ooo… I know what he’s talking about. Red boxing! There was one specific Radio Shack model that could be modded with one small crystal swap and BOOM… Instant money for phones.
	10:01pm Rob: That was called a red box
	10:02pm Marc15: Lol. Hello Pat. Forgive the typo.
	10:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tell the story about growing up with party lines.
	10:04pm sugarwolf: There's something called Generation Jones which is the younger baby boomers born in the late 50s and early 60s.
	10:04pm JakeGould: What about Generation Blecch?
	10:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: I don't mean 1-900 chat lines but the deal where you and some neighbors shared a phone number. Incoming calls would have short or long rings so you could tell if it was for you or for someone else.
	10:06pm BadGuyZero: @sugarwolf Just the ones I gave myself. A year or two ago for Therese's birthday I made her a mix CD that was the Billboard top 40 tunes from the week she was born. I made the cover look like an old K-tel Records compilation. Maybe you could do something like that for your friend if the 45 thing doesn't pan out.
	10:08pm BadGuyZero: People born between 1981 and 1996 should be called Generation 90210.
	10:08pm Marc15: The NJ Lottery used to have a1-900 number to get results
	10:08pm JakeGould: FWIW, the Kinks song “Party Line” is about… Party lines.
	10:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yeah, Benny. That's the description of a party line. The Party Line Generation!
	10:10pm JakeGould: I’M NOT A TRUMP SUPPORTER! BUT WHY DON’T THE KIDS JAYWALK IN NYC!!!
	10:11pm JakeGould: Pat, good for you for jaywalking…
	10:11pm BadGuyZero: Jake jakewalks.
	10:11pm Marc15: As a gay man, I do have to say that Millennials are the most gay-friendly of all the Generations
	10:13pm JakeGould: I’m on the phone right now to discuss jaywalking.
	10:14pm BadGuyZero: Why can't German parents teach their children not to jaywalk? Why is it everybody else's responsibility to set an example?
	10:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: That's the WFMU party line. You have to click the button twice.
	10:16pm Pat Byrne: Ha!
	10:16pm Listener Robert: Granny on TV managed to get a party line installed in Beverly Hills so she could eavesdrop.
	10:18pm sugarwolf: Wait wasn't this at night?? Why are children out that late?? They should be in bed!
	10:21pm Marc15: JFK-Reagan's first term is roughly Generation X
	10:23pm Listener Robert: I was thinking about phoning in with this, but I'd mind more drifting the thread on the air than on these comments: It even bothers me when children have to stay up late & curse in a stage play.
	10:24pm Ken From Hyde Park: Kids born 2017 - 2025 will be called Generation Trump.
	10:25pm Marc15: During Reagan's 2nd term was where Millennials started
	10:26pm JakeGould: I got to add my 2 cents about jaywalking. Let’s make America great again!
	10:27pm TheRealMattClarke: I think Pat is Generation Y. That's cooler than Millennial, right?
	10:29pm JakeGould: Pat is Generation X-1.
	10:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think Hello Children's Faye is from Utica.
	10:32pm BadGuyZero: Pat's band was in "The Twilight Zone."
	10:35pm JakeGould: If I take a dump and it looks like a white hot dog, I know I need to eat better.
	10:35pm JakeGould: Sorry for the visuals folks.
	10:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: What color are tofu dogs?
	10:36pm Marc15: I prefer Generation Y. Weren't Millennials supernatural criminals who wanted to bring about the end of the world in the year 2000 in a TV show?
	10:39pm BadGuyZero: Go outside and pull a Starbucks cup out of a trash can and put the Dunkin Donuts coffee in that.
	10:42pm Marc15: What about Dots?
	10:42pm BadGuyZero: They don't make Chocolate Soldier any more.
	10:43pm BadGuyZero: Generation Sunny Delight
	10:43pm JakeGould: I was part of the 1970s Brooklyn kids generation that spread the rumor (in the pre-Internet era) that Bubblicious had spider eggs in it.
	10:43pm BadGuyZero: This caller's name is Howareyouguysdoin?
	10:44pm JakeGould: @BadGuyZero: Do you remember when they came in the plastic, square, plastic cartons?
	10:45pm BadGuyZero: @JakeGould: Sunny Delight?
	10:46pm Marc15: Tom Leykis, that misogynistic nut, doesn't like guys with ponytails
	10:46pm JakeGould: @BadGuyZero: I might be mixing things up.
	10:46pm TheRealMattClarke: Generation "Purple Stuff", @BadGuyZero
	10:46pm JakeGould: Man buns are only in a specific part of Brooklyn.
	10:47pm JakeGould: Generation Cookie Puss.
	10:48pm BadGuyZero: @JakeGould: I don't remember ever having Sunny Delight growing up. I was in my late-20s the first time I recall having it. I wonder if it was only available in certain parts of the country when I was a kid. I grew up in Texas. We all drank Dr Pepper around the clock.
	10:48pm Marc15: Cookie Puss!!! And Fudgie The Whale
	10:50pm Marc15: I'm 49 also and guys in the 70s with beards were called beatniks
	10:51pm Listener Robert: Jake, according to what I read in, IIRC, the NYPress (maybe Jim Knipfl), SunnyD, as the aficionados call it, is the drink preferred by coffee drinkers as a substitute for orange juice, which gives them heartburn in combination w coffee.
	10:51pm JakeGould: @BadGuyZero: I’m 2+ years on you. But I remember some drink in the 1970s that I am pretty sure was called Sun Dew maybe? Small plastic carton that as like a square yogurt container with a small straw in the top of the case. Sunny Delight is definitely a Generation Y thing.
	10:52pm Marc15: You just described the Cleve Jones in "Milk"
	10:53pm Listener Robert: Was Sun Dew that non-opaque stuff that was the institutional drink?
	10:54pm JakeGould: @ListenerRobert: Maybe. I don’t know. I still like apple sauce in small cups they give you after donating blood.
	10:57pm geezerette: Isn't a sundew a carnivorous plant?
	10:58pm sugarwolf: Play "Party All The Time"!!!
	10:59pm Listener Robert: I tried Google advanced image search on "sun dew", clicked on the logo, found this thread: www.chowhound.com...
	11:00pm JakeGould: What about “Boogie in the Butt?”
	11:01pm JakeGould: Is this the Chipmunks touring band? Because…
	11:03pm Listener Robert: The Chipmunks always remind me of the old Webcor, playing back at 15 ips after recording at 7.5 .
	11:03pm sugarwolf: I taped this off the college radio station I listened to in high school, I don't know why though
	11:04pm sugarwolf: Taping songs off the radio, did Millennials do that??
	11:04pm JakeGould: “Sheer Heart Attack” is a great album. The best!
	11:05pm JakeGould: @sugarwolf: Maybe that should be the test… How did millennial kids become millennial teens.
	11:06pm Cooh John: Cool pair of queens. SHA, my first Queen.
	11:06pm Marc15: So the warning is for another 36 minutes?
	11:09pm Pat Byrne: Correct! It just came in : / ?
	11:09pm Pat Byrne: I TAPED SONGS OFF THE RADIO!!!
	11:11pm Cooh John: 70's music, just sayin'
	11:11pm JakeGould: @PatByrne: One of us… One of us… One of us…
	11:12pm JakeGould: Also, did you wire your own dubbing cable between cassette boomboxes? Basically two mini-jacks wired together. If you did, you might be hardcore.
	11:12pm sugarwolf: @Pat: you're part of Generation Tape Songs Off the Radio!!
	11:13pm Cooh John: Got cable from the pole, that close enough?
	11:14pm Cooh John: Whole albums, baby
	11:15pm Cooh John: I've decloaked
	11:17pm Fox (Rā-chul): I was born in 1976. I feel on the cusp of Gen X, as do those who are a bit younger than me. I read an article somewhere that siad we should be known as the Oregon Trail Generation. Old enough to have computers, but young enough for them to hardly be useful in our lives, outside playing a game that ended with dying of dysentry.(sp?)
	11:18pm Fox (Rā-chul): Also, I totally got the Chipmunk Punk album as a kid from the library all the time.
	11:18pm JakeGould: @Fox(Rā-chul): Ha! I was born in 1968 and all of the games I liked were just so abstract and weird in that first generation of computer games by the time narratives came around—like “Oregon Trail”—I just didn’t care anymore.
	11:18pm Dan in Portland OR: Excellent as always
	11:20pm sugarwolf: I've met one of Eddie Murphy's ex-wives!
	11:21pm JakeGould: Eddie Murphy was a hero to me as a kid. So excited when “48 Hrs.” and “Beverly Hills Cop” came out.
	11:21pm geezerette: www.youtube.com... "Wanna be a member? Wanna be a member?" Fleischer Cartoon/Bimbo's Initiation
	11:21pm Fox (Rā-chul): Jake: I was one of those early adopters of computers, as I had a grandfather who worked for IBM all his life. My favorite computer game was Jumpman. I had Prodigy, even! I miss when the internet was a place for just the geeks and wierdos.
	11:23pm JakeGould: @Fox (Rā-chul): Ahhh! Jumpman! Now that is a reference!
	11:25pm sugarwolf: When I joined Twitter someone else already had @sugarwolf :(
	11:27pm Fox (Rā-chul): JakeGould: I think I enjoyed computer games so much using the arrow keys and space bar that once joysticks and controllers were used, I just couldn't get into them because it wasn't exact enough.
	11:27pm JakeGould: @sugarwolf: Depending on name and fame and such, you can contact Twitter and get your rightful handle. I’ve helped a few clients do that and it works. But you need to have a good reason to ask.
	11:27pm Cooh John: SEVENTIES SOUNDS...
	11:28pm JakeGould: @Fox(Rā-chul): Kinda funny mention keyboards. I miss the old school simple joysticks. But also, I like computer emulators where I am using arrow keys to play video games on my desktop. Weird world nowadays.
	11:29pm Cooh John: JakeGould...IT, PI...
	11:30pm sugarwolf: @JakeGould: well I am Famous Original Sugarwolf!!
	11:30pm BadGuyZero: "Party All The Time" was produced by Rick James. So yeah, there was probably A LOT of cocaine involved.
	11:31pm JakeGould: @CoohJohn: I also like “Magnum P.I.”
	11:32pm βrian: E-mail was my epiphany. I still can't brook non-text e-mail such as html-mail. It's like gluing sequins to a telegram.
	11:32pm JakeGould: In another life I would like to be T.C. from “Magnum P.I.”
	11:36pm Fox (Rā-chul): I think I'd like to be known as the Kids In The Hall Generation. That show spanned the entirety of my highschool years.
	11:39pm BadGuyZero: Call in to win Dunkin Donuts coffee in a Starbucks cup.
	11:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Is it safe to go out boating yet?
	11:40pm BadGuyZero: Dot-net is the URL of the working man.
	11:41pm sugarwolf: @Fox (Rā-chul): Yes! Generation KITH!!
	11:41pm Cooh John: Flyin' the choppe'
	11:43pm JakeGould: @BadGuyZero: You know how many GotoMeetings I have had where I tell people, “If you want to get .com you should also at least get .net and .org…” and people ignore what I advise? Like all of them.
	11:43pm JakeGould: @Fox (Rā-chul): Do you remember “M.U.L.E.”? It was like a space colony version of “Oregon Trail.”
	11:44pm Fox (Rā-chul): Oregon Trail.... or using that goddamn turtle to draw a circle using computer commands.
	11:44pm JakeGould: @Fox (Rā-chul): Logo!
	11:44pm Cooh John: He flashes a mean CPU...
	11:45pm Fox (Rā-chul): Jake: I don't remember that, but in Sussex County NJ, we had a game called "Oh, Deer" where you had to control the deer population through hunting or they'd overpopulate and then all starve to death.
	11:45pm cosmic matrix: i was of the "lemonade stand" generation
	11:45pm BadGuyZero: When I was four, one of the neighborhood kids made fun of me for coloring some of the Super Friends outfits the wrong color. My family didn't have a color television until I was six, so if the Super Friend wasn't on the cover of the coloring book I had no idea what the correct color(s) of their outfit was.
	11:46pm JakeGould: @Fox (Rā-chul): My lord… What a sad game…
	11:46pm cosmic matrix: haunted house, TRS-80
	11:47pm Cooh John: I remember the bw/color transition
	11:47pm JakeGould: @cosmicmatrix: Admired those TRS-80 analog joysticks.
	11:48pm cosmic matrix: they were so loose! no springs on some
	11:48pm BadGuyZero: We should start naming generations after whichever TV show Betty White was on at the time. I'm part of Generation Mary Tyler Moore Show. My niece is part of Generation Hot In Cleveland.
	11:48pm Listener Robert: I learned computer programming in HS in 1969, writing batch-executed programs in Fortran on a keypunch, the cards sent a few blocks away to Manhattan College. Then I learned to program very creatively the Monrobot printing calculator the Math Dept. had; had to do various tricks with its limited capabilities. One of my classmates in these endeavors was Marc Blank, whose later efforts with Infocom Games you may know of.
	11:49pm Fox (Rā-chul): I'd be Generation Golden Girls, I suppose.
	11:50pm BadGuyZero: @Fox: Or Generation Match Game.
	11:50pm cosmic matrix: zork!
	11:51pm Cooh John: Generation Maude, I suppose.
	11:51pm Listener Robert: My crowning achievement with the Monrobot was to program a random number generator that Marc Blank & Alex Citron used for CWABL, their MLB season simulator. This was way before Rotisserie League.
	11:52pm cosmic matrix: remember stereo simulcasts of TV on FM radio??
	11:52pm Listener Robert: I had to do tricks like dividing a number in a register by itself to generate a 1, subtract a number from itself to generate a 0, then divide by that 0 to generate a halt in the loop.
	11:53pm Cooh John: Vinyl, baby
	11:53pm cosmic matrix: and then I remember when stereo TV started...it used to say "-->in stereo<--" in the intro... and discovering spanish etc in SAP....narration for the blind...so crazy for, i don't know, 1990-91?
	11:53pm cosmic matrix: @listener robert: so fucking cool!!!
	11:53pm JakeGould: @ListenerRobert: I was taught how to program via punch cards in high school while I was learning Atari BASIC and copying games with friends at home. Night and day.
	11:54pm Cooh John: Yep, cosmic matrix
	11:54pm Fox (Rā-chul): Ooooooh. By those standards, I'd be the Comedy Channel generation, before it went "Central", when it just had clips of stand up comics and the Terror of Tiny Town with television hosts acting like VJs. Rachel Sweet! Higgins Boys & Gruber!
	11:54pm Listener Robert: CWABL = Computerized Winner Automatic Baseball League; later Citrablammatic Wizamadingy Autoamtic Baseball League.
	11:54pm JakeGould: @cosmicmatrix: Yes!!!!!
	11:54pm Cooh John: Pre-cable gen?
	11:55pm BadGuyZero: In the mid-80s, one of the local TV stations aired a music video show late at night on Saturday that was simulcast on a local Top 40 station.
	11:55pm Listener Robert: It was even possible to use our model of keypunch machine to do some looping by reading its own card output.
	11:55pm cosmic matrix: UHF generation. U-68 !!!! and then HSN. (QSC!)
	11:56pm Cooh John: Me and my icon and the PIAT Players
	11:56pm cosmic matrix: and then there was 3-D with glasses u could get at burger king. ahhhhhh nostalgia. i remember watching THE MASK on WPIX. u used to have to set the tint/hue on the TV for proper 3D effect.
	11:57pm Cooh John: Worked for a UHF.
	11:57pm cosmic matrix: and PIX! PIX! PIX!
	11:57pm sugarwolf: Oh I thought I was the only one who remembered Rachel Sweet and the Higgins Boys and Gruber
	11:57pm Listener Robert: I remember my 1st friend on the block with a UHF converter for his TV. They used to down-convert to channel 7, even though it was occupied.
	11:57pm BadGuyZero: Do all three at the same time.
	11:58pm Cooh John: G'night all
	11:58pm cosmic matrix: @listener robert: whoa! never knew.
	11:58pm cosmic matrix: THANKS FOR THE GREAT SHOW!!!!!! luv u pat byrne etc
	11:58pm BadGuyZero: Dennis Leary was co-host of some show on Comedy Channel.
	11:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Gen BS - born before The Simpsons Gen AS - born after The Simpsons
	11:58pm Listener Robert: Educational TV at PS 108 came in via ITFS dish antenna, ~2.2 GHz terrestrial. That too was down converted.
	11:59pm Listener Robert: Speaking of educational TV, I remember WNTA, the commercial station on channel 13 that preceded the educational one. Some of my favorite kiddie shows came on it.
	11:59pm Cooh John: Topper!
	12:00am JakeGould: Great show for us aging Generation X’ers. Going to watch “Heathers” and listen to “The Cure” right now.
	12:01am Listener Robert: BS was Life in Hell.
	12:01am Fox (Rā-chul): THE LOST BOYS!!!
	12:02am nixxon: CAT PEOPLE!!!
	12:02am Cooh John: Touche, Listener Robert
