	9:52pm suzyhotrod: Thanks for the shout out. I am blushing. Less enraged.
	9:53pm efd: lol, I appreciate you checking in (and listening)!
	9:54pm BH: It's a very Bachman Turner Overdrive Christmas
	9:54pm van chinski: This is...something.
	9:55pm efd: it really ticks all the efd xmas boxes
	9:55pm van chinski: They really took care of Christmas.
	9:56pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD, Suzy (PS I played the entire song on my holiday show!), Medson Man, HP Ken, Listener 126464 (great to meet you Monday!!), SteveL, and all you festive funksters!
	9:56pm Joe R.: Takin’ Care of Christmas might be the best worst Christmas song ever
	9:59pm listener 126464: Likewise Jack
	10:00pm JakeGould: @JulieM: This Jew-boy is looking forward to two things this week… Hanukkah starting on Sunday and Eddie Murphy on SNL this Saturday! youtu.be...
	10:01pm JakeGould: Mr. Robinson on this custom Cabbage Patch Kids dolls: “I can sell these to little stupid kids for $50 each!”
	10:06pm Joe B: show's sounding great efd! greetings fellow funksters!
	10:09pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Joe!
	10:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ho ho ho, Hoboken!
	10:12pm Daybreak and the Missing Cursor: Where is the cursor in the WFMU APP??? It is in the name to display window when you click chat. But then when you click to chat there’s no cursor which is immensely frustrating if you need to change anything before sending it.
	10:14pm Daybreak and the Missing Cursor: Anyone else on the app experiences this after the 2 week ago update? Please let me know. I left a review in the App Store but that and a Nicole will get ya a nickel. The previous line prove my point. I meant to write buckle but it went to Nicole, but I can’t see the cursor to fix it!
	10:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think someone mentioned that Dark Mode affects the cursor. There should be some settings for that stuff.
	10:17pm efd: @Daybreak please email Station Manager/Troubleshooter Ken and let him know - ken at wfmu dot org
	10:17pm JakeGould: I am on iOS 13 and have no problems with the cursor.
	10:21pm efd: @suzy here's a a little consolation prize for the Darlene Love tease earlier...
	10:22pm sugarwolf: @Daybreak: yeah I have the cursor problem, too. No wait, there is a cursor! But it’s white (on white)
	10:23pm ignatatus666: Bono ruined this song for me Forever
	10:25pm JakeGould: I use dark mode and can see the cursor. Blinking white cursor on dark grey background. Oh god, I am not at work!
	10:28pm JakeGould: For the benefit of the people on the app, here is that “The Guitars” link: theguitars.bandcamp.com...
	10:30pm Steve: The Chipmunks in disguise
	10:31pm JakeGould: Do those kids still want a “hula hoop?” OMFG JINGLE DOGS!!! THE BEST!!! SO GOOD!!!
	10:33pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Great show Evan!
	10:34pm Ignatatus666: Wow.... so cool Wish I signed in earlier. Page is great.
	10:34pm Hoboken Jack: Hello TOPT!
	10:35pm Fuzzy: Merry Christmas to Lucy Liu, too!
	10:36pm efd: thanks Todd! Glad you're enjoying the snowfall Ignatatus!
	10:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @ignatatus666: Bono ruins every song forever, even the ones he doesn't sing.
	10:37pm Ignatatus666: @Daybreak it’s been like this for a while. Are you on an IPhone?
	10:41pm Ignatatus666: ToddoPhonic!!! Thank you!! Second time I cracked up today. Truly do not like him or his voice. Especially after his buffoonery on stage with Sinatra. Sinatra didn’t even know who he was( some bs award show)
	10:44pm Santapalooza: Thank you, EFD!
	10:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Kaisers single came out in '96!
	10:46pm Ignatatus666: I am under the impression the cursor issue is an IPhone issue. The WFMU iPhone app was only released recently. I have yet to download and install. I’m nervous something’s going to go wrong.
	10:47pm Joe B: my guess was takin care of christmas being played again
	10:48pm efd: HAHA!
	10:48pm Ignatatus666: Damn I thought it would have been I found the brains of Santa
	10:53pm van chinski: That also took care of Christmas.
	10:54pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Definitely Too Chilly For Twilley tonight! Is this supposed to be a "Pink Cadillac" parody or does Dwight think he wrote it?
	10:55pm efd: he has 100% writer credit on it, for the record
	10:56pm Ignatatus666: For the record on the record that is
	10:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Blerk ... why did I just shove the light strings into a bag last year? Going to take an hour to untangle them and get them onto the tree.
	10:57pm Ignatatus666: Hahaha This is good!! Jesse would kick it with this
	10:58pm johnk77: very entertaining show @efd @ig666 no cursor issues here on my iphone background of chat is dark gray i am using dark mode snow falling nicely on my mac's playlist/comments
	10:59pm steveL: All Mistletoe Disco Band all the time!
	11:10pm Ignatatus666: @HohnK77 are you using the IPhone app?
	11:12pm Ignatatus666: That’s what happens when I post without checking
	11:15pm steveL: I don’t remember if I actually heard HH back in the day, but it feels so familiar.
	11:16pm Ignatatus666: Cheezeus I knew that was HH!!
	11:17pm steveL: What a fucking voice.
	11:19pm scobot: Now, who sponsored the “In” outro?
	11:20pm medson: I’m officially in the Christmas spirit now. Thanks efd.
	11:21pm efd: my pleasure meds!
	11:21pm steveL: You’re killing this Christmas set. How is that possible?!
	11:23pm Ignatatus666: This Greg Lake song is such an uplifting song. One of my favorite.
	11:24pm johnk77: @ig666 yes
	11:24pm van chinski: Merry Tarkus, Charlie Brown!
	11:24pm Steve: Always loved this song
	11:25pm johnk77: the latest version of the wfmu iphone app is 5.2.0
	11:28pm steveL: Merry Tarkus, indeed!
	11:32pm Steve: Hey EFD, what's happened with The dB's recording another new album ? They're better together than apart.
	11:36pm efd: Dunno Steve, I haven't heard anything about that.
	11:37pm Steve: Maybe it's time to have them on your show together or individually to ask them that ?!
	11:44pm efd: well I'm definitely hoping to get the Peter Holsapple Combo on at some point, so we'll see what happens
	11:54pm Ignatatus666: @JohnK77 That’s the issue then. I do not have that.
	11:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, the tree is adorned with lights and a smattering of ornaments. Thanks for a jolly evening, efd!
	11:56pm Steve: Thanks for playing my fave Christmas song. 'Jesus Christ' by Big Star, EFD !!
	11:56pm efd: Well done, Ken! Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
