	7:02pm listener james from westwood: Had to catch last week’s show on the archive owing to travel, but it was lush and plush when I heard it back this week.
	7:02pm Flash Strap: Hello Listener James! very glad to hear about last week's show
	7:06pm Mr Fab: New work schedule means I only hear the first hour of this show live before I gotta split (and alas don't listen to Cool Blue Flame live much anymore.) So play all the good stuff in the first hour!
	7:08pm melinda: hi all
	🥁 7:10pm chresti: Hot cool and easy!
	7:10pm Flash Strap: Hi Melinda! Hi Fab! Bad news, the last hour is going to be excellent
	🥁 7:12pm chresti: hi melinda, fab, james
	7:12pm northguineahills: That picture either looks like the vaqueros of the Los Llanos of Colombia or SoFla cracker cowherders.
	7:14pm geezerette: Hiya, Evan and expeditionists. c\|:)
	7:14pm Flash Strap: Hi NGH! it's a still from the movie Zama, which is so excellent I can't even fully convey
	7:14pm Flash Strap: Hi Geeze!
	7:15pm Flash Strap: seriously, everyone check out Zama. Dir. Lucrecia Martel, came out this year. Couldn't be more perfect really
	🥁 7:16pm chresti: Is that a painting? I thought it was...
	7:18pm Flash Strap: no, that's just how good the movie looks
	🥁 7:18pm chresti: are there cowherders in Fla?
	7:18pm geezerette: Gonna see if it's on Filmstruck.com
	7:19pm Flash Strap: Sparrow sounding like Scott Walker meets Nat King Cole on this cut
	7:20pm hyde: hi friends. must eat dinner and shower. but i am here. goddamnit, i am here
	7:20pm geezerette: crooning!
	🥁 7:20pm chresti: You're right!
	7:21pm Flash Strap: godammit Hyde, you titan, you're here! so, Hello!
	7:21pm geezerette: H Hyyyyyyyy-de :)
	🥁 7:21pm chresti: Hi Hyde( and geeze and ngh)!
	7:22pm geezerette: Chresti,:)
	7:28pm Doug Schulkind: I hope you are dinnershowering, hyde. A smidge of multitasking means more grand times with Flash Strap!
	7:29pm Flash Strap: Hi Doug! wise words
	7:30pm Flash Strap: adore this vocal
	7:31pm Flash Strap: Jimmie Wisdom is the singer
	7:32pm Doug Schulkind: Wise choice, Flash.
	7:33pm Doug Schulkind: I have no tracks by Billy Vernon or by Jimmie Wisdom. But I have several by Jimmy Vernon. Go figure.
	7:33pm Flash Strap: is he the guy who does Dog Bite Your Hide?
	7:34pm Flash Strap: lotta variety on this LP
	7:34pm northguineahills: holas, chresti!
	7:35pm melinda: I Like this Mexico. I first heard a version by Bob Moore, I think it was the B side of the theme from My Three Sons (not the original, which was disappointing at the time).
	7:35pm Doug Schulkind: Yep. That's one of the two I have by JV. The other is "Still Afraid of Losing You."
	7:36pm melinda: I did not intend to capitalize "like" in my previous comment.
	7:37pm Flash Strap: My most familiar rendition of "Mexico" is, as you might imagine, Herb Alpert
	7:37pm Flash Strap: @Doug: that's a good one
	7:38pm geezerette: gorgeous guitar!
	7:41pm hyde: Ahhh Lucrecia Martel! i've seen all her movies except for zama!
	7:43pm hyde: i like la cienaga best. headless woman is crazy good too
	7:46pm glenn: there's really no good shower food.
	7:47pm βrian: Speaking of Scott Walker, Tony Evers would appreciate any contributions to get Scott out of office. Wisconsin needs some love.
	7:47pm hyde: there are occasional very short stream drops, fwiw
	7:47pm northguineahills: Just got a Jamaican mustardy/bbqey/habanero/scotch bonet sauce called yellowbird.
	7:47pm hyde: nothing major!
	7:48pm Doug Schulkind: Lotta rebuffering on the stream this evening. Nothing, Major!
	7:48pm hyde: @ngh ooh
	7:48pm βrian: Oh wouldn't it be a beautiful thing if Scott Walker, the singer, headlined a benefit for Tony Evers?
	7:49pm βrian: Oh, the drummer stream is in tumult!!!
	7:50pm hyde: hmmm, free jazz
	7:50pm hyde: better now
	7:52pm Flash Strap: sorry folks, not sure if this is on my end or not! keep me informed
	7:52pm Flash Strap: Hi Glenn, Hi Brian!
	7:53pm glenn: www.heartbeathotsauce.com
	7:54pm Doug Schulkind: @Flash The stream is butting in pretty regularly. You may want to consider taking a break to reboot your router. It's not guarantee, but it often helps.
	7:55pm βrian: Heartbeat or heart attack, Glenn?
	7:55pm melinda: Good luck!
	7:56pm glenn: it's yummy.
	7:56pm hyde: reboot! reboot! reboot!
	7:56pm hyde: the bonus is that this free jazz is smokin'!
	7:56pm βrian: I love hot peppers, but I'm wary of extreme-ists.
	7:56pm glenn: also, jeff moore says on hearty's playlist that the mother ship is doing some techy stuff.
	8:01pm Doug Schulkind: @glenn Thanks for that update! So it seems that the problem is on the U.S.S. WFMUnterprise.
	8:02pm Flash Strap: i've been having problems since Florence hit, so that could have gone either way
	8:02pm Flash Strap: since Little Danny is incapacitated, I may go a tad long to make up lost time
	8:03pm melinda: How's things in your neck of the woods post-storm, Flash? other than computer issues.
	8:03pm coelacanth∅: greetings Evan, Explorers
	8:04pm βrian: Just where is that "neck of the woods," anyway?
	8:04pm Doug Schulkind: Eraristo Baro on bass here. So sweeeeet!
	8:04pm hyde: stream seems much better now (no jinxing)
	8:05pm Flash Strap: oh the storm hit pretty lightly here, but it doesn't take much to make my connection skittish
	8:05pm northguineahills: I hear w/ my keen ear, while drinking a near beer, one of Dougie's bed musics here....
	8:05pm Flash Strap: Bahama, North Carolina Brian
	8:06pm Flash Strap: Hi Coelacanth!
	8:06pm Flash Strap: @NGH: i just can't resist it even so
	8:06pm coelacanth∅: by "incapacitated" i hope you refer to internet or other technical issues. (?)
	8:07pm coelacanth∅: (regarding Little Danny)
	8:07pm Flash Strap: @C: yes his internet too is messed up, but in his case well beyond a rebooting
	8:08pm Flash Strap: sorry to cause concern unduly
	8:08pm βrian: Ah, I was in Durham just last year. It felt like another country.
	8:08pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Flash. that's a relief at least.
	8:09pm Flash Strap: yeah i'm just a few minutes north of durham
	8:10pm Flash Strap: we still having dropouts ?
	8:11pm coelacanth∅: went to stream for a second about a minute ago
	8:12pm Flash Strap: ugh. well, fingers crossed for no further turbulence
	8:14pm coelacanth∅: at least there's awesome jazz when it happens! i'm having frequent cuts to silence here but pretty sure it's my personal situation.
	8:15pm Flash Strap: Shelley Manne and Bud Shank on this one
	8:18pm doctorjazz: Hi ,been here, but busy. Great jazz stuff
	8:18pm Flash Strap: Buddy Collette and Shelley Manne on this Taboo
	8:20pm Flash Strap: Hi Doc!
	🥁 8:24pm chresti: Hi coel, brian, doc!
	🥁 8:26pm chresti: Danny is out tonight?
	8:27pm Flash Strap: Afraid so, yeah. his internet is out down there in Marfa
	🥁 8:27pm chresti: dangnabbit
	8:28pm Flash Strap: i know
	8:30pm Flash Strap: speaking of LD, and excellent exotic Latin jazz on the Crown label, check this out: officenaps.com...
	8:31pm coelacanth∅: hey chresti!
	🥁 8:38pm chresti: is it stormy in your parts?
	8:39pm hyde: ooh this is good
	🥁 8:39pm chresti: yesss!
	8:41pm Flash Strap: @Hyde: following up that Martel talk which was so totally interrupted, I need to catch up on her early flicks! but you should definitely see Zama ASAP, it's an true and significant masterpiece
	🥁 8:42pm chresti: oh yeah- office naps!
	8:43pm Flash Strap: Office Naps is extremely good
	8:44pm hyde: @Flash i know, i love her movies! botched the job when Zama played here
	8:44pm Flash Strap: me too, had to 'flix it
	8:44pm melinda: This music is helping my spirits. There is a chance that a moldy house has been making me sick for years so I went researching, down the old internet rabbit hole today and it caused mega-stress.
	8:45pm Flash Strap: damn melinda that is a frequent paranoia of mine
	8:46pm Flash Strap: i hope it's not true, unless it's the sort of thing where if it were it would be a huge relief to finally know. I guess I just hope for the best, is what I mean
	8:48pm Flash Strap: this Gil Evans record is really just unbelievable
	8:50pm hyde: @melinda ugh. hang in there
	8:50pm still b/p: Yeah, what Flash said, melinda, I hope if there's some help in your figuring-out research, you get some part of it figured. A friend has suspicions about mold in a house she lived in a few years out on Peaks contributing to real trial and trouble. You don't need, "OH, I've got a horror story...!" But I understand the suspicion and difficulties and wish you the best.
	8:54pm TDK60: Hoppin' in here..
	🥁 8:55pm chresti: I love your show-gaps and all
	8:56pm melinda: Thanks guys. Depending on what I read, it could be either a huge relief or a huge nightmare, since there is a lot of disagreement about how to test for and remediate mold, therefore not a clear path forward. I have blood tests that are not conclusive, as well. I've lived with damp musty basements for many years with no health problems, but I guess different stressors can make you turn sensitive to molds.
	8:57pm melinda: @chresti I agree, the gaps are pretty good too
	🥁 8:57pm chresti: melinda that's terrible! Tea tree is a good anti-fungal
	8:57pm hyde: NICE
	8:59pm melinda: @b/p I've read all the horror stories online! "We replaced 2 walls and ripped out the chimney and my daughter is still sick"....etc.
	8:59pm hyde: strange shuriken interlude, haha
	8:59pm Flash Strap: Hi TDK!
	9:00pm hyde: (just briefly!)
	9:00pm Flash Strap: dammit, still droppin eh
	9:01pm Flash Strap: love how Keith handles the axe
	9:01pm hyde: @Flash just for 2 seconds. otherwise ok
	9:01pm Flash Strap: this we will have to live with i suppose. more suited to this set than the other anyway
	🥁 9:02pm chresti: love keith hudson
	9:03pm melinda: @chresti I bought some to make a spray after my electrician pointed out the mold on some wiring, but once you start reading up it sounds like the kind of thing you need professional attention for so as not to disturb and spread spores.
	9:03pm Flash Strap: he's so damn great
	9:04pm Franco Twinkie: I have never heard a Tapper Zukie record that surpasses Man Ah Warrior for comical nightmare brilliance. Is there one I should be looking for?
	9:04pm hyde: this is fantastic
	9:05pm northguineahills: what chresti said.
	🥁 9:05pm chresti: it's like listening to radio in a car- getting buzzes, other stations, depending where you're going
	9:06pm Flash Strap: Hi Franco! nothing in this life touches Man Ah Warrior, but Zukie in Dub is a very good dub record. So is Escape from Hell, actually
	9:08pm doctorjazz: OK, time to head out (hard to leave reggae covers, a true love of mine). Bye all!
	9:09pm doctorjazz: OK, time to head out (hard to leave reggae covers, a true love of mine). Bye all!
	9:09pm melinda: That last drop was like a weird guest interrupting the party, I liked it.
	9:09pm hyde: farewell, doc
	9:10pm Flash Strap: I don't get to hear the drops like you do!
	9:10pm Flash Strap: adios, mon doctor
	9:10pm hyde: @melinda haha, i liked that one too
	9:11pm Flash Strap: this Winston Riley LP is one of my go-to dub records, so good, doesn't get enough praise
	🥁 9:11pm chresti: @melinda it sounds like an expert is in order. We had serious mildew in the bathroom. After diffusing tea tree oil several times, the smell went away, at least
	🥁 9:13pm chresti: bye doc!
	9:13pm Flash Strap: I'M IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE AND IT'S SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU'RE NEAR I
	9:14pm glenn: in case you need a mascot for your next enema, thanks to jake gould. mobile.twitter.com...
	9:14pm doctorjazz: Bye Chresti and you Explorers out there!
	9:14pm hyde: the best flamingoes song
	🥁 9:15pm chresti: I wanted to name our son Winston..
	9:16pm glenn: i had a cat named winston.
	9:16pm TDK60: Got to hear some of "Reggae on the Boardwalk" at Coney Island last week - DJs spinning 45s via a big sound system.
	9:16pm Flash Strap: it;s a strong name
	9:17pm Flash Strap: that sounds nice TDK
	9:18pm TDK60: They do it 1x/mo. thru summer; last week was it for the year I think.
	9:18pm melinda: @chresti I went ahead and bought a mold and stain product online for my bathroom grout mildew, since that is already being disturbed regularly.
	9:19pm Flash Strap: I just can't quit this pleasure dub LP. i keep playing it
	🥁 9:19pm chresti: outdoors is the best place to hear a sound system
	9:19pm melinda: My friends had a sheep named Winston.
	9:20pm still b/p: Acknowledging the obvioius, I worry about what's happening to our immune systems due to the crap, chemicals, plastics and contaminants cascading into the environment. W might have not only reactions to them but also heightened sensitivities to otherwise fairly normal factors
	9:20pm melinda: say yes to dub!
	🥁 9:21pm chresti: my ex named his cat winston. I guess he realized what a great name it was!
	9:21pm Flash Strap: belated warm hello to you B/P, as you describe enormous fears that tug at the corners of my mind at all times
	9:22pm still b/p: And I'm sure pollutants affect spelling.
	9:22pm Flash Strap: also fond of the name Erroll
	9:23pm melinda: @b/p right? It's easy to drive yourself nuts thinking about it. It comes up a lot in the health forums I've frequented over the last several years, and I've had to make a real effort not to worry too much while at the same time knowing that there's something to it.
	🥁 9:24pm chresti: dub is the antidote
	9:24pm melinda: Erroll would be a great cat name. My first picks would be Terence or Curtis.
	🥁 9:25pm chresti: skank away dem toxins!
	9:25pm Flash Strap: this is one of the best and most understated dub records of all time.
	9:25pm Flash Strap: Pleasure Dub, I mean. all-timer
	9:26pm melinda: @chresti there's a lot to be said for surrounding yourself with things that make you feel good, like these sounds here.
	🥁 9:26pm chresti: Earl is nice, too
	9:27pm melinda: My kitty Olive was Earl for a couple of days, before a friend pointed out that she was a girl. The lady I adopted her from had told me otherwise.
	9:29pm Flash Strap: Dennis Brown = Niney the Observer, which is such a great name
	9:29pm Flash Strap: Dennis Bovell = Blackbeard
	9:30pm Flash Strap: also great as a name
	🥁 9:32pm chresti: I love the Observer Station!
	9:32pm hyde: love this
	9:33pm geezerette: Want to spend a couple of weeks in this set, staring at the ocean.
	9:33pm Flash Strap: such a classic Lee Perry riddim here
	9:33pm Flash Strap: i recommend it, G!
	9:33pm glenn: you could have just called her earlene.
	9:34pm melinda: @glenn we considered that.
	9:35pm Flash Strap: U Roy really one of the original toasters
	🥁 9:35pm chresti: Earlette!
	🥁 9:36pm chresti: Olive is also a good name
	9:38pm Flash Strap: great topic of the day here
	9:39pm melinda: Before Earl/Olive we had picked out a kitten and named him Oliver, but he died before we could adopt him, so Olive was sot of the next name in line.
	9:39pm geezerette: I.Roy lays it out.
	🥁 9:40pm chresti: jump and play!
	9:40pm melinda: sort of, not sot
	9:40pm hyde: damn straight
	9:41pm northguineahills: Well, my friend's band is opening for Adult. see y'alls later!
	🥁 9:41pm chresti: not a sot
	9:41pm Flash Strap: adios, NGH, and enjoy!
	9:41pm melinda: My sister just got kittens and I'm jealous. But I kind of need to be pet-free right now, too
	🥁 9:42pm chresti: bye ngh!
	9:43pm northguineahills: haven't been to a show in 2.5 months due to my illness, but I'm feeling proper enough tonight....
	9:44pm Flash Strap: "Alien images colonize your thoughts" hell yeah
	9:45pm melinda: Glad you're feeling better enough ngh, going out is important.
	9:45pm TDK60: I didn't know you were sick NGH, must have missed the discussion.
	9:45pm Flash Strap: i'm sorry you've been under the weather, NGH!
	🥁 9:45pm chresti: we can't have pets due to franco's allergies, but I have a friend named Nellie, that I feed outside (she's very nervous)
	9:46pm melinda: I'm a bit of a shut-in and average one musical outing per year. Thank jesus for FMU, though.
	🥁 9:48pm chresti: I love it when I finally understand the words a toaster is saying (after many listens)
	9:48pm coelacanth∅: i had to have a shower and missed so much reggae DAMMIT! (got back to Jah Lion) - been reading from where my comment board stood...melinda there are a lot of "experts" out there. just like with doctors, it's easy for one to say you ordinary human being you can't possibly deal with this yourself. ...maybe, maybe not.
	9:49pm TDK60: I've gotten that way too Melinda but have been forcing myself out more recently, even though I'm gittin' older. Saw Sun Ra Arkestra a few weeks back.
	🥁 9:52pm chresti: yeah I very rarely go out unless it's within 5 or 10 miles and it's possible to park AND, (tall order) it's not hot.
	9:53pm melinda: @coel there's no way to really know for certain, but doctors who deal with mold-related illness and don't have a financial interest in professional remediation still recommend going that route. At least you have to have professionals do some testing and investigating first.
	🥁 9:54pm chresti: also, if it's free.
	9:55pm melinda: I'm usually too tired to go out and almost always too un-alert to drive safely.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: and as others here say there are other factors. if other things weren't affecting your sensitivity to it everyone would react to it in the same ways. allergies and sensitivities are cumulative. you may have lived with mold before without a problem because there wasn't anything else messing with your immune system at the time. maybe now you're sensitive to the glue that holds your kitchen counter together, or the tree in your back yard, or a pesticide someones spaying 1/2 a mile away... or it could be a different strain or even species of mold.
	9:56pm geezerette: The stream froze on me for nearly an hour, but heard the last set, mellowness. :) Thanks Evan! Everybuddy!
	🥁 9:57pm chresti: that one is new, Oku, to me
	9:57pm coelacanth∅: ...i was just using a doctor as an example. i could've used a car mechanic. one thing doctors are excellent for, as long as it's not too exotic, is diagnosis.
	9:58pm melinda: @coel that's not really helping
	9:59pm hyde: thanks Flash!
	🥁 9:59pm chresti: after monsterpause, I got way more sensitive to everything
	10:00pm melinda: Great show Flash! @chresti I've heard of that happening
	10:00pm TDK60: thanks DJ FS!
	🥁 10:00pm chresti: oh good night, thanks bigtime forever Evan!
	10:01pm Flash Strap: Thanks all! and like i said, ASAP there will be an uninterrupted archive if you want to hear anything that was missed
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: sorry melinda. nobody's really helping then. my point is that you can deal with it yourself to a great degree; then if that doesn't help go further.
	10:05pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks, Flash Strap. That was a ripper!

Listener comments!
	🥁 6:15pm chresti: Hello Explorers and Flash!
	6:32pm quinn: Hi! I am SO READY
	6:42pm Flash Strap: Chresti! get here early, get the best seat, very smart
	6:43pm Flash Strap: Quinn! So wonderful to have you on board! I'm ready too, gettin itchy waiting to start! fifteen minutes to go
	7:00pm Flash Strap: ok here we go!
	7:01pm listener james from westwood: Evening, Evan and all!
	7:02pm listener james from westwood: Had to catch last week’s show on the archive owing to travel, but it was lush and plush when I heard it back this week.
	7:02pm Flash Strap: Hello Listener James! very glad to hear about last week's show
	7:06pm Mr Fab: New work schedule means I only hear the first hour of this show live before I gotta split (and alas don't listen to Cool Blue Flame live much anymore.) So play all the good stuff in the first hour!
	7:08pm melinda: hi all
	🥁 7:10pm chresti: Hot cool and easy!
	7:10pm Flash Strap: Hi Melinda! Hi Fab! Bad news, the last hour is going to be excellent
	🥁 7:12pm chresti: hi melinda, fab, james
	7:12pm northguineahills: That picture either looks like the vaqueros of the Los Llanos of Colombia or SoFla cracker cowherders.
	7:14pm geezerette: Hiya, Evan and expeditionists. c\|:)
	7:14pm Flash Strap: Hi NGH! it's a still from the movie Zama, which is so excellent I can't even fully convey
	7:14pm Flash Strap: Hi Geeze!
	7:15pm Flash Strap: seriously, everyone check out Zama. Dir. Lucrecia Martel, came out this year. Couldn't be more perfect really
	🥁 7:16pm chresti: Is that a painting? I thought it was...
	7:18pm Flash Strap: no, that's just how good the movie looks
	🥁 7:18pm chresti: are there cowherders in Fla?
	7:18pm geezerette: Gonna see if it's on Filmstruck.com
	7:19pm Flash Strap: Sparrow sounding like Scott Walker meets Nat King Cole on this cut
	7:20pm hyde: hi friends. must eat dinner and shower. but i am here. goddamnit, i am here
	7:20pm geezerette: crooning!
	🥁 7:20pm chresti: You're right!
	7:21pm Flash Strap: godammit Hyde, you titan, you're here! so, Hello!
	7:21pm geezerette: H Hyyyyyyyy-de :)
	🥁 7:21pm chresti: Hi Hyde( and geeze and ngh)!
	7:22pm geezerette: Chresti,:)
	7:28pm Doug Schulkind: I hope you are dinnershowering, hyde. A smidge of multitasking means more grand times with Flash Strap!
	7:29pm Flash Strap: Hi Doug! wise words
	7:30pm Flash Strap: adore this vocal
	7:31pm Flash Strap: Jimmie Wisdom is the singer
	7:32pm Doug Schulkind: Wise choice, Flash.
	7:33pm Doug Schulkind: I have no tracks by Billy Vernon or by Jimmie Wisdom. But I have several by Jimmy Vernon. Go figure.
	7:33pm Flash Strap: is he the guy who does Dog Bite Your Hide?
	7:34pm Flash Strap: lotta variety on this LP
	7:34pm northguineahills: holas, chresti!
	7:35pm melinda: I Like this Mexico. I first heard a version by Bob Moore, I think it was the B side of the theme from My Three Sons (not the original, which was disappointing at the time).
	7:35pm Doug Schulkind: Yep. That's one of the two I have by JV. The other is "Still Afraid of Losing You."
	7:36pm melinda: I did not intend to capitalize "like" in my previous comment.
	7:37pm Flash Strap: My most familiar rendition of "Mexico" is, as you might imagine, Herb Alpert
	7:37pm Flash Strap: @Doug: that's a good one
	7:38pm geezerette: gorgeous guitar!
	7:41pm hyde: Ahhh Lucrecia Martel! i've seen all her movies except for zama!
	7:43pm hyde: i like la cienaga best. headless woman is crazy good too
	7:46pm glenn: there's really no good shower food.
	7:47pm βrian: Speaking of Scott Walker, Tony Evers would appreciate any contributions to get Scott out of office. Wisconsin needs some love.
	7:47pm hyde: there are occasional very short stream drops, fwiw
	7:47pm northguineahills: Just got a Jamaican mustardy/bbqey/habanero/scotch bonet sauce called yellowbird.
	7:47pm hyde: nothing major!
	7:48pm Doug Schulkind: Lotta rebuffering on the stream this evening. Nothing, Major!
	7:48pm hyde: @ngh ooh
	7:48pm βrian: Oh wouldn't it be a beautiful thing if Scott Walker, the singer, headlined a benefit for Tony Evers?
	7:49pm βrian: Oh, the drummer stream is in tumult!!!
	7:50pm hyde: hmmm, free jazz
	7:50pm hyde: better now
	7:52pm Flash Strap: sorry folks, not sure if this is on my end or not! keep me informed
	7:52pm Flash Strap: Hi Glenn, Hi Brian!
	7:53pm glenn: www.heartbeathotsauce.com
	7:54pm Doug Schulkind: @Flash The stream is butting in pretty regularly. You may want to consider taking a break to reboot your router. It's not guarantee, but it often helps.
	7:55pm βrian: Heartbeat or heart attack, Glenn?
	7:55pm melinda: Good luck!
	7:56pm glenn: it's yummy.
	7:56pm hyde: reboot! reboot! reboot!
	7:56pm hyde: the bonus is that this free jazz is smokin'!
	7:56pm βrian: I love hot peppers, but I'm wary of extreme-ists.
	7:56pm glenn: also, jeff moore says on hearty's playlist that the mother ship is doing some techy stuff.
	8:01pm Doug Schulkind: @glenn Thanks for that update! So it seems that the problem is on the U.S.S. WFMUnterprise.
	8:02pm Flash Strap: i've been having problems since Florence hit, so that could have gone either way
	8:02pm Flash Strap: since Little Danny is incapacitated, I may go a tad long to make up lost time
	8:03pm melinda: How's things in your neck of the woods post-storm, Flash? other than computer issues.
	8:03pm coelacanth∅: greetings Evan, Explorers
	8:04pm βrian: Just where is that "neck of the woods," anyway?
	8:04pm Doug Schulkind: Eraristo Baro on bass here. So sweeeeet!
	8:04pm hyde: stream seems much better now (no jinxing)
	8:05pm Flash Strap: oh the storm hit pretty lightly here, but it doesn't take much to make my connection skittish
	8:05pm northguineahills: I hear w/ my keen ear, while drinking a near beer, one of Dougie's bed musics here....
	8:05pm Flash Strap: Bahama, North Carolina Brian
	8:06pm Flash Strap: Hi Coelacanth!
	8:06pm Flash Strap: @NGH: i just can't resist it even so
	8:06pm coelacanth∅: by "incapacitated" i hope you refer to internet or other technical issues. (?)
	8:07pm coelacanth∅: (regarding Little Danny)
	8:07pm Flash Strap: @C: yes his internet too is messed up, but in his case well beyond a rebooting
	8:08pm Flash Strap: sorry to cause concern unduly
	8:08pm βrian: Ah, I was in Durham just last year. It felt like another country.
	8:08pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Flash. that's a relief at least.
	8:09pm Flash Strap: yeah i'm just a few minutes north of durham
	8:10pm Flash Strap: we still having dropouts ?
	8:11pm coelacanth∅: went to stream for a second about a minute ago
	8:12pm Flash Strap: ugh. well, fingers crossed for no further turbulence
	8:14pm coelacanth∅: at least there's awesome jazz when it happens! i'm having frequent cuts to silence here but pretty sure it's my personal situation.
	8:15pm Flash Strap: Shelley Manne and Bud Shank on this one
	8:18pm doctorjazz: Hi ,been here, but busy. Great jazz stuff
	8:18pm Flash Strap: Buddy Collette and Shelley Manne on this Taboo
	8:20pm Flash Strap: Hi Doc!
	🥁 8:24pm chresti: Hi coel, brian, doc!
	🥁 8:26pm chresti: Danny is out tonight?
	8:27pm Flash Strap: Afraid so, yeah. his internet is out down there in Marfa
	🥁 8:27pm chresti: dangnabbit
	8:28pm Flash Strap: i know
	8:30pm Flash Strap: speaking of LD, and excellent exotic Latin jazz on the Crown label, check this out: officenaps.com...
	8:31pm coelacanth∅: hey chresti!
	🥁 8:38pm chresti: is it stormy in your parts?
	8:39pm hyde: ooh this is good
	🥁 8:39pm chresti: yesss!
	8:41pm Flash Strap: @Hyde: following up that Martel talk which was so totally interrupted, I need to catch up on her early flicks! but you should definitely see Zama ASAP, it's an true and significant masterpiece
	🥁 8:42pm chresti: oh yeah- office naps!
	8:43pm Flash Strap: Office Naps is extremely good
	8:44pm hyde: @Flash i know, i love her movies! botched the job when Zama played here
	8:44pm Flash Strap: me too, had to 'flix it
	8:44pm melinda: This music is helping my spirits. There is a chance that a moldy house has been making me sick for years so I went researching, down the old internet rabbit hole today and it caused mega-stress.
	8:45pm Flash Strap: damn melinda that is a frequent paranoia of mine
	8:46pm Flash Strap: i hope it's not true, unless it's the sort of thing where if it were it would be a huge relief to finally know. I guess I just hope for the best, is what I mean
	8:48pm Flash Strap: this Gil Evans record is really just unbelievable
	8:50pm hyde: @melinda ugh. hang in there
	8:50pm still b/p: Yeah, what Flash said, melinda, I hope if there's some help in your figuring-out research, you get some part of it figured. A friend has suspicions about mold in a house she lived in a few years out on Peaks contributing to real trial and trouble. You don't need, "OH, I've got a horror story...!" But I understand the suspicion and difficulties and wish you the best.
	8:54pm TDK60: Hoppin' in here..
	🥁 8:55pm chresti: I love your show-gaps and all
	8:56pm melinda: Thanks guys. Depending on what I read, it could be either a huge relief or a huge nightmare, since there is a lot of disagreement about how to test for and remediate mold, therefore not a clear path forward. I have blood tests that are not conclusive, as well. I've lived with damp musty basements for many years with no health problems, but I guess different stressors can make you turn sensitive to molds.
	8:57pm melinda: @chresti I agree, the gaps are pretty good too
	🥁 8:57pm chresti: melinda that's terrible! Tea tree is a good anti-fungal
	8:57pm hyde: NICE
	8:59pm melinda: @b/p I've read all the horror stories online! "We replaced 2 walls and ripped out the chimney and my daughter is still sick"....etc.
	8:59pm hyde: strange shuriken interlude, haha
	8:59pm Flash Strap: Hi TDK!
	9:00pm hyde: (just briefly!)
	9:00pm Flash Strap: dammit, still droppin eh
	9:01pm Flash Strap: love how Keith handles the axe
	9:01pm hyde: @Flash just for 2 seconds. otherwise ok
	9:01pm Flash Strap: this we will have to live with i suppose. more suited to this set than the other anyway
	🥁 9:02pm chresti: love keith hudson
	9:03pm melinda: @chresti I bought some to make a spray after my electrician pointed out the mold on some wiring, but once you start reading up it sounds like the kind of thing you need professional attention for so as not to disturb and spread spores.
	9:03pm Flash Strap: he's so damn great
	9:04pm Franco Twinkie: I have never heard a Tapper Zukie record that surpasses Man Ah Warrior for comical nightmare brilliance. Is there one I should be looking for?
	9:04pm hyde: this is fantastic
	9:05pm northguineahills: what chresti said.
	🥁 9:05pm chresti: it's like listening to radio in a car- getting buzzes, other stations, depending where you're going
	9:06pm Flash Strap: Hi Franco! nothing in this life touches Man Ah Warrior, but Zukie in Dub is a very good dub record. So is Escape from Hell, actually
	9:08pm doctorjazz: OK, time to head out (hard to leave reggae covers, a true love of mine). Bye all!
	9:09pm doctorjazz: OK, time to head out (hard to leave reggae covers, a true love of mine). Bye all!
	9:09pm melinda: That last drop was like a weird guest interrupting the party, I liked it.
	9:09pm hyde: farewell, doc
	9:10pm Flash Strap: I don't get to hear the drops like you do!
	9:10pm Flash Strap: adios, mon doctor
	9:10pm hyde: @melinda haha, i liked that one too
	9:11pm Flash Strap: this Winston Riley LP is one of my go-to dub records, so good, doesn't get enough praise
	🥁 9:11pm chresti: @melinda it sounds like an expert is in order. We had serious mildew in the bathroom. After diffusing tea tree oil several times, the smell went away, at least
	🥁 9:13pm chresti: bye doc!
	9:13pm Flash Strap: I'M IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE AND IT'S SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU'RE NEAR I
	9:14pm glenn: in case you need a mascot for your next enema, thanks to jake gould. mobile.twitter.com...
	9:14pm doctorjazz: Bye Chresti and you Explorers out there!
	9:14pm hyde: the best flamingoes song
	🥁 9:15pm chresti: I wanted to name our son Winston..
	9:16pm glenn: i had a cat named winston.
	9:16pm TDK60: Got to hear some of "Reggae on the Boardwalk" at Coney Island last week - DJs spinning 45s via a big sound system.
	9:16pm Flash Strap: it;s a strong name
	9:17pm Flash Strap: that sounds nice TDK
	9:18pm TDK60: They do it 1x/mo. thru summer; last week was it for the year I think.
	9:18pm melinda: @chresti I went ahead and bought a mold and stain product online for my bathroom grout mildew, since that is already being disturbed regularly.
	9:19pm Flash Strap: I just can't quit this pleasure dub LP. i keep playing it
	🥁 9:19pm chresti: outdoors is the best place to hear a sound system
	9:19pm melinda: My friends had a sheep named Winston.
	9:20pm still b/p: Acknowledging the obvioius, I worry about what's happening to our immune systems due to the crap, chemicals, plastics and contaminants cascading into the environment. W might have not only reactions to them but also heightened sensitivities to otherwise fairly normal factors
	9:20pm melinda: say yes to dub!
	🥁 9:21pm chresti: my ex named his cat winston. I guess he realized what a great name it was!
	9:21pm Flash Strap: belated warm hello to you B/P, as you describe enormous fears that tug at the corners of my mind at all times
	9:22pm still b/p: And I'm sure pollutants affect spelling.
	9:22pm Flash Strap: also fond of the name Erroll
	9:23pm melinda: @b/p right? It's easy to drive yourself nuts thinking about it. It comes up a lot in the health forums I've frequented over the last several years, and I've had to make a real effort not to worry too much while at the same time knowing that there's something to it.
	🥁 9:24pm chresti: dub is the antidote
	9:24pm melinda: Erroll would be a great cat name. My first picks would be Terence or Curtis.
	🥁 9:25pm chresti: skank away dem toxins!
	9:25pm Flash Strap: this is one of the best and most understated dub records of all time.
	9:25pm Flash Strap: Pleasure Dub, I mean. all-timer
	9:26pm melinda: @chresti there's a lot to be said for surrounding yourself with things that make you feel good, like these sounds here.
	🥁 9:26pm chresti: Earl is nice, too
	9:27pm melinda: My kitty Olive was Earl for a couple of days, before a friend pointed out that she was a girl. The lady I adopted her from had told me otherwise.
	9:29pm Flash Strap: Dennis Brown = Niney the Observer, which is such a great name
	9:29pm Flash Strap: Dennis Bovell = Blackbeard
	9:30pm Flash Strap: also great as a name
	🥁 9:32pm chresti: I love the Observer Station!
	9:32pm hyde: love this
	9:33pm geezerette: Want to spend a couple of weeks in this set, staring at the ocean.
	9:33pm Flash Strap: such a classic Lee Perry riddim here
	9:33pm Flash Strap: i recommend it, G!
	9:33pm glenn: you could have just called her earlene.
	9:34pm melinda: @glenn we considered that.
	9:35pm Flash Strap: U Roy really one of the original toasters
	🥁 9:35pm chresti: Earlette!
	🥁 9:36pm chresti: Olive is also a good name
	9:38pm Flash Strap: great topic of the day here
	9:39pm melinda: Before Earl/Olive we had picked out a kitten and named him Oliver, but he died before we could adopt him, so Olive was sot of the next name in line.
	9:39pm geezerette: I.Roy lays it out.
	🥁 9:40pm chresti: jump and play!
	9:40pm melinda: sort of, not sot
	9:40pm hyde: damn straight
	9:41pm northguineahills: Well, my friend's band is opening for Adult. see y'alls later!
	🥁 9:41pm chresti: not a sot
	9:41pm Flash Strap: adios, NGH, and enjoy!
	9:41pm melinda: My sister just got kittens and I'm jealous. But I kind of need to be pet-free right now, too
	🥁 9:42pm chresti: bye ngh!
	9:43pm northguineahills: haven't been to a show in 2.5 months due to my illness, but I'm feeling proper enough tonight....
	9:44pm Flash Strap: "Alien images colonize your thoughts" hell yeah
	9:45pm melinda: Glad you're feeling better enough ngh, going out is important.
	9:45pm TDK60: I didn't know you were sick NGH, must have missed the discussion.
	9:45pm Flash Strap: i'm sorry you've been under the weather, NGH!
	🥁 9:45pm chresti: we can't have pets due to franco's allergies, but I have a friend named Nellie, that I feed outside (she's very nervous)
	9:46pm melinda: I'm a bit of a shut-in and average one musical outing per year. Thank jesus for FMU, though.
	🥁 9:48pm chresti: I love it when I finally understand the words a toaster is saying (after many listens)
	9:48pm coelacanth∅: i had to have a shower and missed so much reggae DAMMIT! (got back to Jah Lion) - been reading from where my comment board stood...melinda there are a lot of "experts" out there. just like with doctors, it's easy for one to say you ordinary human being you can't possibly deal with this yourself. ...maybe, maybe not.
	9:49pm TDK60: I've gotten that way too Melinda but have been forcing myself out more recently, even though I'm gittin' older. Saw Sun Ra Arkestra a few weeks back.
	🥁 9:52pm chresti: yeah I very rarely go out unless it's within 5 or 10 miles and it's possible to park AND, (tall order) it's not hot.
	9:53pm melinda: @coel there's no way to really know for certain, but doctors who deal with mold-related illness and don't have a financial interest in professional remediation still recommend going that route. At least you have to have professionals do some testing and investigating first.
	🥁 9:54pm chresti: also, if it's free.
	9:55pm melinda: I'm usually too tired to go out and almost always too un-alert to drive safely.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: and as others here say there are other factors. if other things weren't affecting your sensitivity to it everyone would react to it in the same ways. allergies and sensitivities are cumulative. you may have lived with mold before without a problem because there wasn't anything else messing with your immune system at the time. maybe now you're sensitive to the glue that holds your kitchen counter together, or the tree in your back yard, or a pesticide someones spaying 1/2 a mile away... or it could be a different strain or even species of mold.
	9:56pm geezerette: The stream froze on me for nearly an hour, but heard the last set, mellowness. :) Thanks Evan! Everybuddy!
	🥁 9:57pm chresti: that one is new, Oku, to me
	9:57pm coelacanth∅: ...i was just using a doctor as an example. i could've used a car mechanic. one thing doctors are excellent for, as long as it's not too exotic, is diagnosis.
	9:58pm melinda: @coel that's not really helping
	9:59pm hyde: thanks Flash!
	🥁 9:59pm chresti: after monsterpause, I got way more sensitive to everything
	10:00pm melinda: Great show Flash! @chresti I've heard of that happening
	10:00pm TDK60: thanks DJ FS!
	🥁 10:00pm chresti: oh good night, thanks bigtime forever Evan!
	10:01pm Flash Strap: Thanks all! and like i said, ASAP there will be an uninterrupted archive if you want to hear anything that was missed
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: sorry melinda. nobody's really helping then. my point is that you can deal with it yourself to a great degree; then if that doesn't help go further.
	10:05pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks, Flash Strap. That was a ripper!
