	3:23pm Krys O.: Is that Anouk in the gif?

	3:35pm βrian: And what a mug: en.wikipedia.org...
	3:35pm Websie: Gilford did Cracker Jack ads! And the song was in the Broadway version of CABARET, but Bob Fosse only wanted the diegetic nightclub songs in the film.

	4:08pm fred: A new Holly Golightly?!! I join the choir wishing Sheila will recover soon

	4:10pm Phillippe Bastille: Yes, get well soon Sheila!
	4:10pm Monica: hi cheri!... thx, p-90 and dale. i mangled that real good... yrs, jocelyn!... maggie b - hello!
	4:12pm Lixiviated Life: Saw Lydia Lunch interviewed by Anthony Bourdain's last CNN show. It was bitter sweet. Miss Tony B
	4:12pm Phillippe Bastille: How old was Lydia when she did this? Sounds young
	4:12pm dale: i bought a cd of lydia and xene reciting their poetry - i'll never get that 45 minutes back in my life.
	4:13pm Michael 98145: @dale, :)
	4:13pm Phillippe Bastille: Agreed Lixiviated. His death hit me harder than a celebrity death is supposed to hit.
	4:17pm northguineahills: What Lixiviated Life and Phillippe said...
	4:18pm Monica: hi, michael 98145!
	4:21pm Irwin: Checking in, Mo. Got any Lizzo?
	4:21pm Jocelyn: Monica has me dancing today!
	4:22pm chresti: Ha dale!
	4:22pm Sem: Regretting every second of your fill-in I missed, but here now. Hello, Ms. M, all.
	4:23pm Michael 98145: sorry about our DJ Sheila, but enjoying this ♫
	4:24pm Jocelyn: Bourdain - I know it's an overly used term but he seemed like one of us not a celebrity. By one of us, I mean a deep appreciation of music, cultures, life in general. His death hit like losing a friend. I used to watch which restaurants he went to in Chinatown.
	4:24pm Matt Fiveash: Mr. Airplane Man! My buds!
	4:25pm Lixiviated Life: Bourdain seemed honest and without pretense. A real appetite for life. Reminded me of so many of the guys I grew up with. Who knows what kind of demons haunted him? Don't know. Don't want to know. Probably better that way.
	4:25pm Michael 98145: hope he realized how much he was appreciated by many
	4:26pm βrian: It was the meat demons what got him.
	4:26pm northguineahills: Mr Airplane Man, new to me!
	4:27pm northguineahills: @Jocelyn" i Had my wedding dinner at his old restaurant (it was near city hall). He was no longer the owner, but I wanted to see it.
	4:28pm tim from champaign: Mr Airplane Main is not to be confused with New Edition's Mr Telephone Man.
	4:29pm northguineahills: Sweet, Matt!
	4:29pm Smurph: Another amazing show today!
	4:31pm Rob Kopp: Mr. Airplane Man was my favourite so far. I see on Discogs that "Sun sinking low" is written by Fred McDowell.
	4:33pm Jocelyn: NGH, that had to be awesome! I ate there quite often.
	4:35pm Monica: coming right up, irwin:)... aw, sem - happy to have ya here... oh wow, matt! ...
	4:35pm Monica: thx much, smurph!
	4:36pm Phillippe Bastille: Bourdain treated people the way I want to. Respect everyone who is fighting the good fight and don't put up with the a$$holes.
	4:37pm Laura L: Hi Monica, an unexpected delight to hear you over the internetwaves today!
	4:37pm coelacanth∅: a lot of Neil Diamond on fmu these days (in one form or another) -no complaints!
	4:40pm Passaic River Blues: Revive "Fishing with John" now, TV execs!
	4:41pm Theo in SharonCT: Thanks for a great show!
	4:41pm Ken in Tucson: John Lurie's on Twitter.
	4:43pm coelacanth∅: oh jeez i'm glad HE got out on time (& presumedly his family)
	4:43pm Steve L: From the empire of rain... xo
	4:44pm Jocelyn: House fires are heartbreakingly awful, I hope he gets everything back and more
	4:44pm Michael 98145: yes. that is terrible news.
	4:45pm Monica: STEVE L - yay!.... thank YOU, theo and Laura L!...
	4:46pm joe mulligan: loved hearing the New Year, that was on a compilation called "Personal Space" which is all winners.. DIY bedroom soul-electronica by african americans in the 70s/80s.. highly recommend checking out such a rare collection of music
	4:49pm Brian in UK: Monica, hello, what a delightful surprise.
	4:51pm Rob Kopp: I see now that Mr. Airplane Man, a band that's new to me, also did a cover of Sun's going down, the b-side of the 1st single by the legendary Dutch band The Outsiders! www.youtube.com... So thanks for bringing them to my attention, Monica. I will surely mention that cover in PLATENBOEK 4 (the 60's after the 60's).
	4:52pm Phillippe Bastille: This is an amazing program, Monica. Sorry I wasn't an FMU listener when you had a regular show. Fun to have music take me places.
	4:53pm tim from champaign: Deeeetroit!
	4:53pm Monica: thx for the heads up, joe m!... brian in UK, likewise... much appreciated, phillippe!
	4:54pm northguineahills: What tim said.....
	4:55pm northguineahills: The New Year, not to be confused w/ the post-Bedhead band of the same name.
	4:56pm Monica: @tim and NGH - DAY-TWAH, the paris of the midwest!
	4:56pm annie: Phillippe: the archives are chock-full of old shows..
	4:56pm CB2: Sounds like a Butta' remix?
	4:58pm Phillippe Bastille: @Annie Thank you! I will be checking them out!
	4:58pm Brian in UK: What annie said. More music than you will ever need but not as much as you want.
	4:58pm Listening Out There: Hey! Enjoying having Monica back on FMU. Will listen to what I missed out of the ol' archive...
	4:59pm Carmichael: Always good to hear the Jimmy Spicer.
	5:00pm Phillippe Bastille: @Brian that applies to most good things in my life lol. As Mae West said, "Too much of a good thing is still a good thing"
	5:00pm CB1: HA HA! We always thought this song was The Bubble Butt (will drive you to your knees) . Ha!
	5:00pm Andy S.: Oh man, Jimmy "Super Rhymes" Spicer! Back in '81 or '82, he was on the bill for a Danceteria benefit for my mag New York Rocker. Did a 20-30 minute set, then Jimmy and his manager -- one Russell Simmons -- waited around for another four hours to collect their promised $100.00 (yes, they got paid).
	5:01pm northguineahills: I think of Detroit the as the Berlin of the midwest....
	5:01pm Monica: thx, annie!... CB Dos & UNO - ha!... well, hello, Listening Out There!... And you too, Carmichael!... Wow, Andy S. - always comin' thru with the historical deets!
	5:02pm Michael 98145: used to love reading NY Rocker here on the left coast !
	5:04pm Listening Out There: Was this Nelson Riddle's band on the Bewitched theme?
	5:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Now there's a bewitching song for ya!
	5:05pm common: Bewitched!
	5:05pm P-90: I believe DJ Samantha said she was named for Samantha Stevens. He cool is that?
	5:05pm Michael 98145: heh. that was fun.
	5:06pm still b/p: Was someone double-dog Darrin you to play that?
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: they want to make damned sure that we're thoroughly bewitched
	5:07pm Phillippe Bastille: Too many Darrins
	5:09pm Listener Ian: And here I was, like a schlub, listening to one of My Fav. Monica shows ("Loop de Loop, November, 2005..) and then find that she is filling in! O M G!
	5:11pm Jeff Moore: Gaaaa! Thanks for the shout. Now I definitely have to come up with music to play in a couple of weeks.
	5:15pm Brian in UK: Got visions of a Sardinian funeral for some reason.
	5:16pm Monica: dunno, LOT... yes, common!.. oh wow, ian!... alright, jeff moore!...
	5:16pm chresti: Sounds good, struggles and all
	5:17pm Carmichael: I have my smoking jacket and ascot on, sipping a Gold Cadillac at the piano bar.
	5:17pm P-90: I hate Sardinian funerals. Too crowded.
	5:18pm Carmichael: Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.
	5:19pm chris: loving the show, Monica. best of the best to Jeff Sarge...
	5:19pm Jeff Moore: If y'all want to hear what I got up to in my earlier occasional fill-ins (fills-in?), you may check them out. AFTER Monica has finished delivering us this lovely show, of course. www.wfmu.org...
	5:20pm Phillippe Bastille: @Carmicael left hand in the pocket or holding a pipe?
	5:20pm Steve L: OMG, BJH!
	5:22pm Michael 98145: when was the last time you heard them ?!?
	5:23pm Monica: Steve L - thought of you with that one!... Hi, chris and yes!...
	5:25pm Carmichael: @Phillipe, left hand always in pocket. Think of Jack Cassidy ...
	5:25pm Laura L: Danke for playing this one, Liebchen.
	5:27pm dotpattern: The crooner sounds great.
	5:27pm sinner: Sweetness of sounds.
	5:28pm Phillippe Bastille: Naturally. Just needed the final details to finish the picture. It was like a paint by numbers without the 8s being painted in.
	5:33pm Monica: Mais bien sur, Laura... yes, dotpattern!... yo, sinner - whattup:)
	5:34pm Brian in UK: Kind of smoky in here, Pop. Yes son, this is how it used to be.
	5:35pm Jocelyn: Oh I love this song so much
	5:38pm Carmichael: I though this was Rose of San Antonio.
	5:38pm Carmichael: I saw Commander Cody and his crew play it live one night.
	5:38pm still b/p: I can pick the melody for San Antonio Rose poorly but quickly on the guitar.

	3:35pm βrian: And what a mug: en.wikipedia.org...
	3:35pm Websie: Gilford did Cracker Jack ads! And the song was in the Broadway version of CABARET, but Bob Fosse only wanted the diegetic nightclub songs in the film.

	4:12pm Phillippe Bastille: How old was Lydia when she did this? Sounds young
	4:12pm dale: i bought a cd of lydia and xene reciting their poetry - i'll never get that 45 minutes back in my life.
	4:13pm Michael 98145: @dale, :)
	4:13pm Phillippe Bastille: Agreed Lixiviated. His death hit me harder than a celebrity death is supposed to hit.
	4:17pm northguineahills: What Lixiviated Life and Phillippe said...
	4:18pm Monica: hi, michael 98145!
	4:21pm Irwin: Checking in, Mo. Got any Lizzo?
	4:21pm Jocelyn: Monica has me dancing today!
	4:22pm chresti: Ha dale!
	4:22pm Sem: Regretting every second of your fill-in I missed, but here now. Hello, Ms. M, all.
	4:23pm Michael 98145: sorry about our DJ Sheila, but enjoying this ♫
	4:24pm Jocelyn: Bourdain - I know it's an overly used term but he seemed like one of us not a celebrity. By one of us, I mean a deep appreciation of music, cultures, life in general. His death hit like losing a friend. I used to watch which restaurants he went to in Chinatown.
	4:24pm Matt Fiveash: Mr. Airplane Man! My buds!
	4:25pm Lixiviated Life: Bourdain seemed honest and without pretense. A real appetite for life. Reminded me of so many of the guys I grew up with. Who knows what kind of demons haunted him? Don't know. Don't want to know. Probably better that way.
	4:25pm Michael 98145: hope he realized how much he was appreciated by many
	4:26pm βrian: It was the meat demons what got him.
	4:26pm northguineahills: Mr Airplane Man, new to me!
	4:27pm northguineahills: @Jocelyn" i Had my wedding dinner at his old restaurant (it was near city hall). He was no longer the owner, but I wanted to see it.
	4:28pm tim from champaign: Mr Airplane Main is not to be confused with New Edition's Mr Telephone Man.
	4:29pm northguineahills: Sweet, Matt!
	4:29pm Smurph: Another amazing show today!
	4:31pm Rob Kopp: Mr. Airplane Man was my favourite so far. I see on Discogs that "Sun sinking low" is written by Fred McDowell.
	4:33pm Jocelyn: NGH, that had to be awesome! I ate there quite often.
	4:35pm Monica: coming right up, irwin:)... aw, sem - happy to have ya here... oh wow, matt! ...
	4:35pm Monica: thx much, smurph!
	4:36pm Phillippe Bastille: Bourdain treated people the way I want to. Respect everyone who is fighting the good fight and don't put up with the a$$holes.
	4:37pm Laura L: Hi Monica, an unexpected delight to hear you over the internetwaves today!
	4:37pm coelacanth∅: a lot of Neil Diamond on fmu these days (in one form or another) -no complaints!
	4:40pm Passaic River Blues: Revive "Fishing with John" now, TV execs!
	4:41pm Theo in SharonCT: Thanks for a great show!

	4:43pm Steve L: From the empire of rain... xo
	4:44pm Jocelyn: House fires are heartbreakingly awful, I hope he gets everything back and more
	4:44pm Michael 98145: yes. that is terrible news.
	4:45pm Monica: STEVE L - yay!.... thank YOU, theo and Laura L!...
	4:46pm joe mulligan: loved hearing the New Year, that was on a compilation called "Personal Space" which is all winners.. DIY bedroom soul-electronica by african americans in the 70s/80s.. highly recommend checking out such a rare collection of music
	4:49pm Brian in UK: Monica, hello, what a delightful surprise.
	4:51pm Rob Kopp: I see now that Mr. Airplane Man, a band that's new to me, also did a cover of Sun's going down, the b-side of the 1st single by the legendary Dutch band The Outsiders! www.youtube.com... So thanks for bringing them to my attention, Monica. I will surely mention that cover in PLATENBOEK 4 (the 60's after the 60's).
	4:52pm Phillippe Bastille: This is an amazing program, Monica. Sorry I wasn't an FMU listener when you had a regular show. Fun to have music take me places.
	4:53pm tim from champaign: Deeeetroit!
	4:53pm Monica: thx for the heads up, joe m!... brian in UK, likewise... much appreciated, phillippe!
	4:54pm northguineahills: What tim said.....
	4:55pm northguineahills: The New Year, not to be confused w/ the post-Bedhead band of the same name.
	4:56pm Monica: @tim and NGH - DAY-TWAH, the paris of the midwest!
	4:56pm annie: Phillippe: the archives are chock-full of old shows..

	4:58pm Listening Out There: Hey! Enjoying having Monica back on FMU. Will listen to what I missed out of the ol' archive...
	4:59pm Carmichael: Always good to hear the Jimmy Spicer.
	5:00pm Phillippe Bastille: @Brian that applies to most good things in my life lol. As Mae West said, "Too much of a good thing is still a good thing"
	5:00pm CB1: HA HA! We always thought this song was The Bubble Butt (will drive you to your knees) . Ha!
	5:00pm Andy S.: Oh man, Jimmy "Super Rhymes" Spicer! Back in '81 or '82, he was on the bill for a Danceteria benefit for my mag New York Rocker. Did a 20-30 minute set, then Jimmy and his manager -- one Russell Simmons -- waited around for another four hours to collect their promised $100.00 (yes, they got paid).
	5:01pm northguineahills: I think of Detroit the as the Berlin of the midwest....
	5:01pm Monica: thx, annie!... CB Dos & UNO - ha!... well, hello, Listening Out There!... And you too, Carmichael!... Wow, Andy S. - always comin' thru with the historical deets!
	5:02pm Michael 98145: used to love reading NY Rocker here on the left coast !
	5:04pm Listening Out There: Was this Nelson Riddle's band on the Bewitched theme?
	5:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: Now there's a bewitching song for ya!
	5:05pm common: Bewitched!
	5:05pm P-90: I believe DJ Samantha said she was named for Samantha Stevens. He cool is that?
	5:05pm Michael 98145: heh. that was fun.
	5:06pm still b/p: Was someone double-dog Darrin you to play that?
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: they want to make damned sure that we're thoroughly bewitched
	5:07pm Phillippe Bastille: Too many Darrins
	5:09pm Listener Ian: And here I was, like a schlub, listening to one of My Fav. Monica shows ("Loop de Loop, November, 2005..) and then find that she is filling in! O M G!
	5:11pm Jeff Moore: Gaaaa! Thanks for the shout. Now I definitely have to come up with music to play in a couple of weeks.
	5:15pm Brian in UK: Got visions of a Sardinian funeral for some reason.
	5:16pm Monica: dunno, LOT... yes, common!.. oh wow, ian!... alright, jeff moore!...
	5:16pm chresti: Sounds good, struggles and all
	5:17pm Carmichael: I have my smoking jacket and ascot on, sipping a Gold Cadillac at the piano bar.
	5:17pm P-90: I hate Sardinian funerals. Too crowded.
	5:18pm Carmichael: Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.
	5:19pm chris: loving the show, Monica. best of the best to Jeff Sarge...
	5:19pm Jeff Moore: If y'all want to hear what I got up to in my earlier occasional fill-ins (fills-in?), you may check them out. AFTER Monica has finished delivering us this lovely show, of course. www.wfmu.org...
	5:20pm Phillippe Bastille: @Carmicael left hand in the pocket or holding a pipe?

	5:27pm dotpattern: The crooner sounds great.
	5:27pm sinner: Sweetness of sounds.
	5:28pm Phillippe Bastille: Naturally. Just needed the final details to finish the picture. It was like a paint by numbers without the 8s being painted in.
	5:33pm Monica: Mais bien sur, Laura... yes, dotpattern!... yo, sinner - whattup:)
	5:34pm Brian in UK: Kind of smoky in here, Pop. Yes son, this is how it used to be.
	5:35pm Jocelyn: Oh I love this song so much
	5:38pm Carmichael: I though this was Rose of San Antonio.
	5:38pm Carmichael: I saw Commander Cody and his crew play it live one night.
