	3:09pm Motobro: Right on Boss Groover!!
	3:09pm David in London: Hey Motobro.
	3:10pm Mr. Pumpy: @David...ups and downs. He had a real rough night of low blood sugar and it has exacerbated the memory issues that were a result of his stroke. He seems to be feeling a bit better though. There's a lot of sleeping today, which gives me time to prep food and do things around the house. Thanks for asking!
	3:10pm mariano: Hey, gang's (almost) all here I see. 'Afternoon TOPT, crew, gang! Haven't had a nice cider in a while David IL. Come to think of it, it was the last time I was in England, last September. Such good cider over there.
	3:11pm Mr. Pumpy: Park sounds lovely, David. I also opened my first cider of the day, only 3PM here though!
	3:11pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, mariano!
	3:11pm scott: Antifa? Boogaloo? Christ-Anti? Damn!
	3:11pm Sonicmeltdown: I saw Bob Mould at Riotfest last year. It was pretty great.
	3:12pm Motobro: Hi Dave. Im fnally riding the dirt bike today.
	3:12pm Mr. Pumpy: Vicious Mould, right here. Long live the Mould!
	3:12pm Jim H: Mouldy but never moldy! Still kickin'!
	3:12pm mariano: Hey Mr. P, enjoy that cider!
	👻 3:12pm Frank In Queens: Hey all!
	3:13pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano, I am! I have to go prep some food stuffs, but I'll be rocking out with the headphones. See you cats in a bit.
	👻 3:13pm Frank In Queens: Oh, this is THE track!
	3:15pm David in London: Mr P. Glad both you and he are doing OK. Bonus points to you for fine filial duty done. You’ve earned that 3pm cider. Hey Mariano. Well, next time you’re here, I’ll buy you a pint of Aspalls for sure.
	3:15pm Peter from Dover NJ: A timely track from MC5. Hello Todd-o-phonic Todd and everyone.
	3:16pm flashbazbo: Little quote from John browns body in there
	3:16pm scott: You should not pay taxes, or for that matter, die, bring back Marx, the brothers that is.
	👻 3:17pm Frank In Queens: Watched Horse Feathers and Duck Soup last night.
	3:17pm Peter from Dover NJ: Turning the Yardbirds up to 11!
	3:18pm scott: We could use some Stooges too...
	3:18pm mariano: Sounds like a plan, David. I was hoping to make it over there this year sometime though it's far from certain at this point for obvious reasons. If you ever find yourself in NOLA, I will gladly treat you to a Sazerac.
	3:20pm Sonicmeltdown: I don't wanna. I don't think so.
	3:20pm Jett: Very lo-fi sound quality on the show today, especially evident on the Yardbirds track. Are you having technical issues?
	👻 3:20pm Frank In Queens: I'm not the world's biggest Sonic Youth fan, but I've always thought this track was great.
	3:21pm Sonicmeltdown: The riff. The vocal. The chorus. All great.
	3:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: I'm sorry, but they don't think that highly of you either.
	3:21pm scott: Should I vote for Juan Guaidó or Nicolás Maduro in November?
	3:22pm mariano: Oh man, I remember first time I heard Kool Thing, knocked my socks clean off.
	👻 3:22pm Frank In Queens: @Todd, it would be ridiculous if they thought of me at all.
	3:22pm Nutley Sam: Joe, you're a Besser man than I
	👻 3:22pm Frank In Queens: And I do like them! Saw them live a few times, own a few albums, just not a BIG fan.
	3:23pm Jim H: Frank must be Sonic Olds!
	3:24pm Wilson.: Awesome show!
	3:24pm Sonicmeltdown: Sonics olds and Sonic Youth are both great!
	3:24pm Jim H: Wait. I seem to be detecting a theme to this playlist. Anybody else?
	3:25pm Mr. Pumpy: Todd, I had to take a break from trimming Brussels sprouts to mention how much ass this set is kicking! Keep on rocking in the free world!
	👻 3:25pm Frank In Queens: @Jim, more like Sonic Very Early Middle Aged to be complete accurate.
	3:25pm scott: Was't that 'Rocket 88' by Ike?
	3:26pm Sonicmeltdown: Wow Todd has his own bumper music!
	3:27pm Beep Boop: Preach!
	3:27pm James in ATL: Preach on! Thanks Todd!
	3:28pm Jim H: Preach it, Todd! And more about Vas Deferens!
	3:28pm WallCharger: Speak, Todd!!! I love the music too
	3:28pm swk: Capiche! Cosigned!
	3:28pm scott: Does Trump trump Trump? Does Biden's bid bite?
	3:29pm Corey: I'm on board.
	3:29pm Rick A.: Well said, Todd, tell it as it is. People should not be caught up in one person. The Democratic Party is filled with many energetic and diverse leaders who will get a lot done if there is a Biden administration.
	3:29pm J&E in Ithaca NY: Digging the O’phonic theme song
	3:30pm Jett: With all due respect, nobody has demonstrated more racism in his career than Biden.
	3:31pm MO MIZ: Yes, Todd-O! Thanks for the inspiring start to the show!
	3:33pm Smilty69: Well said, Todd!
	3:33pm scott: You sound like a bunch of 1968 wannabe's. My doctor bled me this morning and I am still low in my blood count.
	3:34pm Mr. Pumpy: Jett, speaking in absolutes is not a good look for anyone.
	3:34pm Jim H: @scott: Vodka will replenish it.
	3:35pm scott: Thanks man, I was thinking only of Everclear.
	3:35pm Jim H: Also, @scott, I have no place in Medicine.
	3:35pm Christina Low: I love this song. It's perfect.
	3:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Live Exbats coming up after this set!
	👻 3:37pm Frank In Queens: YES!
	👻 3:38pm Hoboken Jack: Hello TOPT, Frank, Greg, McGroove, all! Robert Scott nervously wondering what the Exbats are all about.
	3:38pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats live kicks ass! I've seen them a few times. :)
	3:38pm flashbazbo: Those verses were just baggage anyway
	👻 3:38pm Frank In Queens: Jack!
	3:39pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Jealous!
	3:39pm Jim H: My thoughts exactly, @Hoboken Jack. What's next, The Unclean?
	3:40pm Sonicmeltdown: Fun fact. I shot the E is for Exbats cover. I am probably a tiny bit biased. No they are great and play all the time in Arizona.
	👻 3:40pm Hoboken Jack: Jim: yes! On a bill with the Warms.
	3:40pm Victrola Tom: Hello TOPT and all you Toddheads!
	3:41pm Victrola Tom: Damn, I missed my favorite Clash song!
	3:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Victrola Tom is the proud new owner of a copy of "Sea Of Misery" by The Most!
	3:41pm listener 126464: Hi Todd, Jack, everybody!
	3:42pm Victrola Tom: @TOPT, yes, and I only had to drive about 180 miles north to find it!!
	3:43pm Sonicmeltdown: I've also got multiple Exbats live performances posted on YouTube at SonicUnderground if that interests you.
	3:43pm scott: Picture yourself in a black 1964 Lincoln Continental driving the Pacific Highway, top down.
	3:44pm JakeGould: @Todd: Late break comment: Publishers of the Yiddish dictionary called: They need a nice profile headshot of you to use for their definition for “mensch.”
	3:45pm Elle Tor's Husband: Did Elvez cover this?
	3:45pm Sonicmeltdown: I'm interested in how The Exbats recorded this live set.
	👻 3:45pm Hoboken Jack: Hey there Tom and 126464!!
	3:46pm Spinning Giant: A tad late to the party today but glad to be here, as always. Cheers Todd and all!
	3:47pm Sonicmeltdown: The Resonars are awesome. Highly. Highly recommend buying The Resonars Greatest hits are downloading it right now!
	3:47pm medson: Hey hey TOPT and everyone.
	3:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey Jake!
	3:48pm JakeGould: @MrPumpy: How’s by you? Read you prior posts. Power to you and your pop!
	3:48pm McGroovey: Hey
	3:49pm Sonicmeltdown: Matt Rendon (The Resonars) can play any instrument well. He's sick. Got some killer footage of the Resonars also. The Resonars and The Exbats are good friends. Arizona rock at it's finest.
	3:51pm Mr. Pumpy: Thanks, Jake. That's about it. He just emerged from his bedroom for some food, so I think the sleep is helping. I'm chopping, dicing, mincing like a madman over here. I usually do a lot of this type of stuff when he goes to bed, but getting it done during the day is so much better! It's so much easier without someone asking questions or getting in my way in the kitchen. Hey, there are much bigger problems in life, so I'm grateful I can be here for him. How are you doing?
	3:51pm Andres in Nutley: Wooo Hooo! Thanks Todd!
	👻 3:52pm Hoboken Jack: Thanks TOPT, I dig RBCF, almost as much as Mike Rosenberg does!
	3:52pm Sonicmeltdown: Matt Rendon runds MidTown Island Studio Records and you should heavily peruse their catalog of bands. There are many great bands who have recorded albums at his studio.
	3:52pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Andres In Nutley: Been to Rutt's Hut lately?
	3:52pm Jim H: @Sonicmeltdown: Are/were The Sidewinders/Sand Rubies in that crew?
	3:53pm efd: had to walk over to the computer keyboard to say "yay" for the Paley Brothers! Looking forward to that Exbats set!
	3:54pm JakeGould: Doing as best as one can do in this whole world… Visited Park Slope again and even more businesses on 5th Avenue are closed. Happily a few I still care about are still open. Sadly I’m starting to really absorb the sadness of what’s happening. For example, the line for NYC food pantry boxes near me was all the way down the block for more than an hour. Meaning as fast as they handed them out more people showed up. That was the case for 1.5 to 2 hours straight.
	3:55pm Sonicmeltdown: This killer performance from The Exbats in February in Tucson. https://youtu.be/0ix15mxclHw
	3:56pm Stashu: <3
	3:56pm Sonicmeltdown: Jim H. I am not sure.
	3:59pm Sonicmeltdown: Inez 4 Prez is a totally new song.
	3:59pm medson: Psyched for this live set.
	3:59pm listener 126464: Inez/Juniper 2027
	3:59pm Todd E: If the version of Satisfaction is from The Blow Up, yes it’s from My Father’s Place.
	👻 4:00pm Hoboken Jack: EFD and Medson Man in the house! Digging Exbats!
	4:00pm JakeGould: What Todd E says… www.thewonder.co.uk...
	4:01pm Gaylord Fields: Inez/K-pop Stans 2027!
	4:01pm Sonicmeltdown: E is For Exbats album is a tour de force. Every song is sick. Once you start listening to it you will listen to nothing else for a while.
	4:01pm mariano: "With all due respect, nobody has demonstrated more racism in his career than Biden." [voiceover: "This is your brain on talk radio."]
	4:01pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, Stashu!
	4:01pm medson: Hola Hoboken Jack. Hope all is well.
	4:02pm Mr. Pumpy: Gaylord's in the house!
	4:02pm Sonicmeltdown: Saw many great shows at Maxwell's in Hoboken.
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Gaylord! Stashu! Medson!
	4:03pm JakeGould: Not my house… In his own house… Properly socially distanced…
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Maybe I bumped into you once or twice @Sonicmeltdown
	4:03pm Gaylord Fields: Todd! Inez! Kenny! Bobby!
	4:04pm medson: @TOPT great show as always. Looking forward to the next two hours.
	4:04pm listener monica: me likey!
	4:04pm Sonicmeltdown: These songs are all from Kicks, Hits, and Fits from the Exbats.
	4:05pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Not "Inez For Prez 2027"
	4:05pm JakeGould: And here is the Exbats’ Bandcamp: theexbats.bandcamp.com
	4:06pm Spinning Giant: Great live set! Since I heard you playing the Exbats here Todd, I've been converting my friends one by one to their particularly delicious brand of rock n roll. Praise!!!
	4:06pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats have a range of songs. They are not going to be playing the harder punk songs due to the f-bombs but they have plenty of bad ass rockers.
	👻 4:07pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Yvonne, Gaylord! I did a double take reading the Exbats' description on Bandcamp: Do people still like hit songs? Like TOTP style hits? These are hits.
	4:07pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats were in fact in my video. https://youtu.be/WhPHQ3xVqYU
	4:08pm Dungaroos Kipawah: I love these zany kids. And yes, all hit songs in my world.
	4:09pm Choggie: I was in your jury, you were not in mine.
	4:10pm Choggie: Whatever happend to The Aquabats?
	4:11pm Sonicmeltdown: That was awesome!
	4:11pm Spinning Giant: tomtommag.com...
	4:12pm Bobby K: Love this!
	👻 4:12pm Hackensack Slim: Sonicmeltdown, Great Video. Hey Todd, Yo Medson.
	4:14pm Gaylord Fields: Inez/Old Lady Piano Teacher 2027!
	4:15pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: Works for me!
	4:15pm Sonicmeltdown: Hackensack, Thanks! We shot that in like 3 hours under heavy duress because the bar was prepping to open. I thought I screwed it up because we were so rushed but it turned out well.
	4:16pm Sonicmeltdown: Bobby was a huge fan of The Exbats. He's this real tall dude and he would show up and sing along. I think I shot photos of him in the audience before he joined the band.
	4:19pm Sonicmeltdown: Bobby was in The Ponies and it's about his ex-wife.
	4:20pm clarke: howdy 'Phonics!! don't have a lot of time here, this aft, but there's ALWAYS time for archives
	4:20pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, I was hoping they covered "Pins and Needles" by Ralph Kramden.
	4:20pm Sonicmeltdown: The song Florida is about Bobby. It was written by his ex-wife and sent to him and they used it for a song.
	4:21pm Dungaroos Kipawah: @Gaylord: It's a happy man that grins
	👻 4:22pm Hoboken Jack: Great set and delightful interview, thank you!
	4:22pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Dungaroos Kipawah: What am I mad about? Oh, that's not working so well right now...
	4:23pm Sonicmeltdown: Great interview. Really enjoyed it.
	4:23pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Hoboken Jack: You're welcome! Had to book them now so you couldn't grab them for your podcast first.
	4:23pm medson: What’s up H’sack Slim?
	4:23pm clarke: coooooollllll!!!!
	4:23pm Gaylord Fields: @Dungaroos: We all need those words as our personal mantra more than ever these days.
	4:24pm Sonicmeltdown: My favorite song on Kicks, Hits, and Fits is probably Good Enough For You.
	👻 4:26pm Hackensack Slim: Yay Juniper! Rocker, Roller, Film Critic. Triple Threat!
	4:27pm Christina Low: Juniper will learn in 10 years that the hot punk rock boy probably wasn't the best choice of guy.
	👻 4:28pm Hoboken Jack: Don't worry, Christina, that song was written by a 90 yr old man.
	4:28pm the Hoboken playwright: Will Charlie Watts be featured...? Hm.
	4:28pm Sonicmeltdown: The song Doorman by The Exbats was about an actual event that I was at. Inez got kicked out of a club they were going to play in because she was underage. So the entire crowd walked out of the club and walked down the street to another club and set-up and played. It was a magical night.
	4:28pm flashbazbo: Sk8er boy is chopped liver now.
	👻 4:30pm Hoboken Jack: If this set ain't got mojo Nixon, it sure could use some fixin
	4:30pm clarke: Marketing In Motion: you just reminded me i needed to order the Juniper LP -- DID. done. hopefully, this is a spike in sales during TopT hours.
	4:31pm mariano: Reminds me of a favorite Onion headline: "70-Year-Old Hippie Pitied by 50-Year-Old Punk" (I've updated the ages). Goes on to mention that both were in turn pitied by a 40-y-o raver sitting barefoot in the grass.
	4:32pm clarke: @mariano - how goes in the marigny?? will u venture into Phase Two, tonight??
	4:32pm JohnEBGood: HI Todd, Central Jersey, and my FMU family. Rock on all : )
	4:36pm mariano: Hey clarke! All good thanks, how's it by you? Think I might just stay in tonight, feeling kinda lazy. You? I ran an errand out by Magazine the other day, first time I'd been that far uptown in months. Beautiful time to be out though, been walking around here and the Quarter.
	4:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @mariano: How is New Orleans doing?
	4:38pm clarke: weather: incredible!! i lost a few friends, but my mom beat the virus!! trying to get outside in a bit, but i hardly went out when things were 'normal'.
	4:39pm clarke: it sure is going to be weird in the bars.
	4:40pm clarke: funny how mariano and i are worlds apart, yet so close. i always intend to get that way...
	4:41pm Sonicmeltdown: I have to run but if you are interested in all things Southern Arizona rock. (The Exbats, The Resonars, Lenguas Largas, Nanami Ozone, The Freezing Hands and many more) I post videos and photos on Sonicmeltdown on Instagram.
	4:44pm clarke: weary of the schmaltz, THIS is one of my ALL time faves!!
	4:44pm clarke: the bo that is. (bo knows)
	4:44pm Gaylord Fields: I never noticed before how much that Eddie and the Hot Rods song sounds like Freddy Cannon's "Abigail Beecher" — which is a good thing.
	4:44pm Greg from ZONE 5: Ahhh, McComb, MS. Birthplace of Britney Spears.
	4:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: Freddy meet Eddie!
	4:46pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: And they're both ready!
	4:47pm Sonicmeltdown: Todd, great setlist. I've dug every song.
	4:48pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Great to have you on board, please visit again!
	👻 4:48pm Hoboken Jack: Be well, Mr Meltdown
	4:50pm clarke: gene pitney plays piano on that album, but, i hear no piano on that song
	4:51pm mariano: I'm so sorry to hear about your friends, clarke. I'm glad your mother is better. TOPT: NOLA's slowly coming back to life from what I can see. I see more people walking around, the little hotel across the street always seems to have people. Some restaurants are starting to open, with distancing restrictions.
	4:52pm clarke: thanks, M!! supposedly pitney stepped in on piano on some songs that ian stewart said he couldn't do.
	4:53pm clarke: stewart was strictly a blues scales guy and minor keys threw him off
	4:54pm mariano: Wait TOPT, you're saying Michael Shelley's the Frank Sinatra Jr of that duo? C'mon, you know he's the Frank Stallone.
	4:54pm clarke: pitney's piano is heard most on Flight 505
	4:54pm Jim H: Nominee for best song title ever! In the Corner, at the Table, by the Jukebox. My life.
	4:58pm JohnEBGood: Bo and Ron Wood had a nice gig in Manhattan a few years ago. It was awesome. Legends we are; ) lol
	4:58pm Spinning Giant: That James Hand tune was great!
	4:58pm clarke: and speaking of Piano: floyd cramer - wow.
	4:58pm Jett: Great but I still prefer the Don Gibson version.
	4:59pm Spinning Giant: Oooohh, now this is juicy! Be chewin on this one for awhile...
	5:00pm clarke: no one ever topped don's original versions, true.
	👻 5:00pm Hackensack Slim: In a alternate reality, Todd might be giving away Swamp Dogg tickets right about now.
	5:01pm Ignore Function: Yeah Swamp Dogg!
	5:01pm clarke: in an alternate world todd would BE swampdogg
	5:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and guests. Cooling out in the kitchen making lemonade on this lovely afternoon. I hope the Skeleton Crew is hanging in there.
	5:03pm medson: Does anyone remember the phone number to call for tickets? Hahaha.
	5:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ken From Hyde Park: Please save a glass for me, my friend.
	👻 5:05pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Fab show TOPT! Digging the new Swamp Dogg & Nick Lowe.
	👻 5:07pm Frank In Queens: Awww, my favorite Creedence song.
	5:07pm Mr. Pumpy: Great show for a couple hours of food prep for me and pops. Thanks! Now good for a few salmon dinners with veg, chopped fruit for snackage, and a nice garlic/balsamic preparation to roast the sprouts in. Tons of garlic, as is the only path...
	5:07pm clarke: the acoustic guitar is mixed perfectly in 'there' on this
	5:08pm Spinning Giant: ...in an alternate world we'd all be sitting on the grass somewhere together watching and listening to Todd introduce SwampDogg & Friends at a big outdoor musicfest...
	5:10pm clarke: horse feathers!
	5:10pm Jett: Sounds gourmet Mr. Pumpy, I've been having a lot of Salmon lately. I baste it in lemon and butter to keep it from drying out.
	5:10pm Stuntz: Beautiful show, man.
	👻 5:10pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Jeff and HP Ken!
	5:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Stuntz: Thank you.
	5:13pm Spinning Giant: lovely track
	5:14pm clarke: yes, this is sweet
	5:16pm JohnEBGood: Thanks meltdown Arizona Rocks !
	5:17pm Sean B.: @Todd-o Thank you so much for the great music today man!.
	5:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: Hot damn, George.
	5:18pm Stuntz: Margo Price was on Saturday sessions this morning, not last week as I originally thought. Prevagen ain’t helping my brain cell.
	5:19pm Bootsie: Good stuff, Todd!!
	5:21pm geezerette: Todd, what a swangin' show!
	👻 5:22pm Tommy in Neversink: James Hand sounds more like Hank than Hank Jr.
	5:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: 'Lo, Jack! In an alternate world, I'd be teleporting lemonade to you all, with ice.
	5:23pm clarke: i heard that ankle down here in the South!! wuz wondering what woke me..
	5:24pm Greg from ZONE 5: Well said, T-O-P.
	5:24pm seth from muddy creek: FMU 4 EVR
	5:24pm Phil Morrison: Ha ha ha ha!
	5:24pm battleaxe: @Todd: does your wife have Exploding Head Syndrome? Jonsey has it and has spoken about it a few times on his show. I'm a sufferer myself!
	5:25pm Mr. Pumpy: @Jett, pops is on a very strict diet due to his diabetes and kidney disease so I use a bit of sodium free garlic and herb spice, but on my salmon I use a nice rub by the Hungarian Szeged brand. They do it right. I used to be able to find it in the markets around here, but no longer can. I order it online now.
	👻 5:25pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hiya Jack. Vicky sez hello!
	5:25pm Phil Morrison: (ankle)
	5:26pm clarke: actually, anyone claiming that something woke them up was not sleeping soundly enough, anyway.
	5:27pm battleaxe: http://sleepeducation.org/sleep-disorders-by-category/parasomnias/exploding-head-syndrome/overview-facts
	5:27pm medson: Thanks for mentioning that Todd.
	5:28pm clarke: having a microphone strick-ly for the drum stick hits...
	5:29pm clarke: .. is VERY Dayton!
	5:35pm mariano: Aww, thanks TOPT!
	5:35pm Sylvia's Mother: My knees only crack when I crouch. My goodness, what position do you sleep in?
	5:36pm clarke: dont answer!
	5:37pm Spinning Giant: ...great great show today, Todd - so much territory was covered - thanks for the meander... Cheers all
	5:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sylvia's Mother: How would I know? I'm asleep!
	5:37pm medson: Great set Todd.
	👻 5:38pm WO Town Wick: That comment about the CCR and Rolling Stones CD's was so true for the mediocre bars of the 1990's. Another standby you could usually find was AC/DC's Back in Black.
	5:38pm Spinning Giant: Still listening... and loving it all...just gotta get dinner on the hop for the progeny...
	5:39pm Pedro in Arlington: Brother Nutt would sanctify.
	5:39pm geezerette: Love Sister Tharp.
	👻 5:39pm Frank In Queens: The Doors Greatest Hits was another that would provide musical sanctuary in lame ass bars.
	5:40pm peachy.meep: ugh I'm so horny
	5:40pm Steve Harsh: Great show Todd, many thanks!
	5:40pm JohnEBGood: Legend says Dylan was grooved by Rev. Gary Davis up in Harlem. Thanks for exposing us back to the roots. Peace ; )
	5:41pm clarke: at one time i really liked The Doors. that time is long past.
	5:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Maybe for you!
	5:41pm peachy.meep: What time does the show end?
	5:43pm Sonicmeltdown: Some videos of interest. The Resonars crushing Black Breath. Matt Rendon singing and on lead guitar. Amazing drummer Johnnie Rinehart just crushing it. https://youtu.be/w6wrLVfOQTE
	5:43pm JakeGould: A Sinatra or Elvis CD could help too.
	5:44pm geezerette: If we can all convince the BLM marchers vote they can save the planet. Like The Electric Word says.
	5:45pm Ashley in VA: What do people even talk about in the comments?
	5:45pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats Inez comes out from behind the drums to lead a raucous addition of "Hercules". Matt Rendon filling in on drums. You see a theme. https://youtu.be/3TuGnNRT3v8
	5:46pm JakeGould: @geezerette: Why would you presume that “Black Lives Matter” protestors and marchers don’t — or won’t — vote?
	5:46pm Matt Clarke: Hello from the park! Sounds good Todd!
	5:46pm clarke: oh shit.
	5:46pm ChrisB.: Awwww...
	5:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks, Matt! Ashley in VA: The thing I like best in comments is when people are writing about how much they are enjoying my show.
	5:47pm Ashley in VA: Everybody tell me what your doing this second:
	5:47pm clarke: fun show TopT!!! as ALWAYS.
	5:47pm JakeGould: I am reading a comment.
	5:48pm Ashley in VA: lol
	5:49pm Ashley in VA: I'm eating Doritos.
	5:49pm clarke: if not i'll just die
	5:50pm Sonicmeltdown: Preaching the gospel of Southern Arizona rock! "Play it pretty for Tucson."
	5:50pm scott: That Twin Peaks theme guitar tone at the end of the Explorers Club tune.
	5:51pm Sonicmeltdown: Sister Rosetta Tharp rules!
	5:52pm radioronan: Thanks Todd - great show! Thanks skeleton crew!
	5:53pm Sonicmeltdown: "E is For Exbats" is the album you should stream or purchase immediately after this show. Also, my greatest photo.
	5:53pm geezerette: Jake, because they generally haven't. Young people in last few elections. I'm full of optimism now, and think a gentle nudge from each of us to the young people in our lives will be welcome.
	5:53pm Sonicmeltdown: Thanks Todd! I really enjoyed the show. You took us on a journey.
	5:54pm geezerette: Great show, Todd !
	5:55pm Corey: Thanks Todd for the great show! Thanks skeleton crew for getting it on the airwaves! Until next time, be well all.

	👻 5:58pm Frank In Queens: Thanks Todd! Already looking forward to next week.
	5:59pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Todd!
	5:59pm Sylvia's Mother: How can anything be this good?
	5:59pm slugluv1313: GORGEOUS!!! just got in to the tune of "This Guy's in Love With You" and really digging . . . wish i could have been here for the whole show :( (and REALLY nice music to drown out the boring crap the young-uns are playing across the courtyard -- first weekend with stay-at-home orders are lifted and they are out partying -- WORSE than the stuff piped in to the supermarkets when i was a kid) THANKS SO MUCH, TODD!!!
	8:51pm Handy Haversack: Todd, I had a vid. conf. and poker game with widely separated friends that I couldn't move -- but I had the show on as loud as I could manage on the FM airwaves. Exbat set was so good! Will revisit in the archives. Just wanted to thank you and to say I wish I could have been a part of the hangout!

	3:06pm David in London: Hey Mr P. All good here, just had a very nice afternoon in the park in the sunshine. Now cracking open the first cider of the night. How are you? How’s Mr Pumpy Senior doing?
	3:06pm Corey: Hello Todd and listeners! Nice to join you all!
	3:06pm McGroovey: Hey
	3:07pm Jim H: Afternoon all! Is there a party in here?
	3:07pm battleaxe: This one goes to ELEVEN!
	3:08pm Mr. Pumpy: We're the proud, the few, Descendents pickin' our butts tonight!
	3:08pm McGroovey: Yes, Indeed, sir, there is a party. Indubitably.
	3:08pm Sonicmeltdown: I'm here for The Exbats but liking the playlist so far!
	3:09pm Motobro: Right on Boss Groover!!
	3:09pm David in London: Hey Motobro.
	3:10pm Mr. Pumpy: @David...ups and downs. He had a real rough night of low blood sugar and it has exacerbated the memory issues that were a result of his stroke. He seems to be feeling a bit better though. There's a lot of sleeping today, which gives me time to prep food and do things around the house. Thanks for asking!
	3:10pm mariano: Hey, gang's (almost) all here I see. 'Afternoon TOPT, crew, gang! Haven't had a nice cider in a while David IL. Come to think of it, it was the last time I was in England, last September. Such good cider over there.
	3:11pm Mr. Pumpy: Park sounds lovely, David. I also opened my first cider of the day, only 3PM here though!
	3:11pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, mariano!
	3:11pm scott: Antifa? Boogaloo? Christ-Anti? Damn!
	3:11pm Sonicmeltdown: I saw Bob Mould at Riotfest last year. It was pretty great.
	3:12pm Motobro: Hi Dave. Im fnally riding the dirt bike today.
	3:12pm Mr. Pumpy: Vicious Mould, right here. Long live the Mould!
	3:12pm Jim H: Mouldy but never moldy! Still kickin'!
	3:12pm mariano: Hey Mr. P, enjoy that cider!
	👻 3:12pm Frank In Queens: Hey all!
	3:13pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano, I am! I have to go prep some food stuffs, but I'll be rocking out with the headphones. See you cats in a bit.
	👻 3:13pm Frank In Queens: Oh, this is THE track!
	3:15pm David in London: Mr P. Glad both you and he are doing OK. Bonus points to you for fine filial duty done. You’ve earned that 3pm cider. Hey Mariano. Well, next time you’re here, I’ll buy you a pint of Aspalls for sure.
	3:15pm Peter from Dover NJ: A timely track from MC5. Hello Todd-o-phonic Todd and everyone.
	3:16pm flashbazbo: Little quote from John browns body in there
	3:16pm scott: You should not pay taxes, or for that matter, die, bring back Marx, the brothers that is.
	👻 3:17pm Frank In Queens: Watched Horse Feathers and Duck Soup last night.
	3:17pm Peter from Dover NJ: Turning the Yardbirds up to 11!
	3:18pm scott: We could use some Stooges too...
	3:18pm mariano: Sounds like a plan, David. I was hoping to make it over there this year sometime though it's far from certain at this point for obvious reasons. If you ever find yourself in NOLA, I will gladly treat you to a Sazerac.
	3:20pm Sonicmeltdown: I don't wanna. I don't think so.
	3:20pm Jett: Very lo-fi sound quality on the show today, especially evident on the Yardbirds track. Are you having technical issues?
	👻 3:20pm Frank In Queens: I'm not the world's biggest Sonic Youth fan, but I've always thought this track was great.
	3:21pm Sonicmeltdown: The riff. The vocal. The chorus. All great.
	3:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: I'm sorry, but they don't think that highly of you either.
	3:21pm scott: Should I vote for Juan Guaidó or Nicolás Maduro in November?
	3:22pm mariano: Oh man, I remember first time I heard Kool Thing, knocked my socks clean off.
	👻 3:22pm Frank In Queens: @Todd, it would be ridiculous if they thought of me at all.
	3:22pm Nutley Sam: Joe, you're a Besser man than I
	👻 3:22pm Frank In Queens: And I do like them! Saw them live a few times, own a few albums, just not a BIG fan.
	3:23pm Jim H: Frank must be Sonic Olds!
	3:24pm Wilson.: Awesome show!
	3:24pm Sonicmeltdown: Sonics olds and Sonic Youth are both great!
	3:24pm Jim H: Wait. I seem to be detecting a theme to this playlist. Anybody else?
	3:25pm Mr. Pumpy: Todd, I had to take a break from trimming Brussels sprouts to mention how much ass this set is kicking! Keep on rocking in the free world!
	👻 3:25pm Frank In Queens: @Jim, more like Sonic Very Early Middle Aged to be complete accurate.
	3:25pm scott: Was't that 'Rocket 88' by Ike?
	3:26pm Sonicmeltdown: Wow Todd has his own bumper music!
	3:27pm Beep Boop: Preach!
	3:27pm James in ATL: Preach on! Thanks Todd!
	3:28pm Jim H: Preach it, Todd! And more about Vas Deferens!
	3:28pm WallCharger: Speak, Todd!!! I love the music too
	3:28pm swk: Capiche! Cosigned!
	3:28pm scott: Does Trump trump Trump? Does Biden's bid bite?
	3:29pm Corey: I'm on board.
	3:29pm Rick A.: Well said, Todd, tell it as it is. People should not be caught up in one person. The Democratic Party is filled with many energetic and diverse leaders who will get a lot done if there is a Biden administration.
	3:29pm J&E in Ithaca NY: Digging the O’phonic theme song
	3:30pm Jett: With all due respect, nobody has demonstrated more racism in his career than Biden.
	3:31pm MO MIZ: Yes, Todd-O! Thanks for the inspiring start to the show!
	3:33pm Smilty69: Well said, Todd!
	3:33pm scott: You sound like a bunch of 1968 wannabe's. My doctor bled me this morning and I am still low in my blood count.
	3:34pm Mr. Pumpy: Jett, speaking in absolutes is not a good look for anyone.
	3:34pm Jim H: @scott: Vodka will replenish it.
	3:35pm scott: Thanks man, I was thinking only of Everclear.
	3:35pm Jim H: Also, @scott, I have no place in Medicine.
	3:35pm Christina Low: I love this song. It's perfect.
	3:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Live Exbats coming up after this set!
	👻 3:37pm Frank In Queens: YES!
	👻 3:38pm Hoboken Jack: Hello TOPT, Frank, Greg, McGroove, all! Robert Scott nervously wondering what the Exbats are all about.
	3:38pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats live kicks ass! I've seen them a few times. :)
	3:38pm flashbazbo: Those verses were just baggage anyway
	👻 3:38pm Frank In Queens: Jack!
	3:39pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Jealous!
	3:39pm Jim H: My thoughts exactly, @Hoboken Jack. What's next, The Unclean?
	3:40pm Sonicmeltdown: Fun fact. I shot the E is for Exbats cover. I am probably a tiny bit biased. No they are great and play all the time in Arizona.
	👻 3:40pm Hoboken Jack: Jim: yes! On a bill with the Warms.
	3:40pm Victrola Tom: Hello TOPT and all you Toddheads!
	3:41pm Victrola Tom: Damn, I missed my favorite Clash song!
	3:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Victrola Tom is the proud new owner of a copy of "Sea Of Misery" by The Most!
	3:41pm listener 126464: Hi Todd, Jack, everybody!
	3:42pm Victrola Tom: @TOPT, yes, and I only had to drive about 180 miles north to find it!!
	3:43pm Sonicmeltdown: I've also got multiple Exbats live performances posted on YouTube at SonicUnderground if that interests you.
	3:43pm scott: Picture yourself in a black 1964 Lincoln Continental driving the Pacific Highway, top down.
	3:44pm JakeGould: @Todd: Late break comment: Publishers of the Yiddish dictionary called: They need a nice profile headshot of you to use for their definition for “mensch.”
	3:45pm Elle Tor's Husband: Did Elvez cover this?
	3:45pm Sonicmeltdown: I'm interested in how The Exbats recorded this live set.
	👻 3:45pm Hoboken Jack: Hey there Tom and 126464!!
	3:46pm Spinning Giant: A tad late to the party today but glad to be here, as always. Cheers Todd and all!
	3:47pm Sonicmeltdown: The Resonars are awesome. Highly. Highly recommend buying The Resonars Greatest hits are downloading it right now!
	3:47pm medson: Hey hey TOPT and everyone.
	3:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey Jake!
	3:48pm JakeGould: @MrPumpy: How’s by you? Read you prior posts. Power to you and your pop!
	3:48pm McGroovey: Hey
	3:49pm Sonicmeltdown: Matt Rendon (The Resonars) can play any instrument well. He's sick. Got some killer footage of the Resonars also. The Resonars and The Exbats are good friends. Arizona rock at it's finest.
	3:51pm Mr. Pumpy: Thanks, Jake. That's about it. He just emerged from his bedroom for some food, so I think the sleep is helping. I'm chopping, dicing, mincing like a madman over here. I usually do a lot of this type of stuff when he goes to bed, but getting it done during the day is so much better! It's so much easier without someone asking questions or getting in my way in the kitchen. Hey, there are much bigger problems in life, so I'm grateful I can be here for him. How are you doing?
	3:51pm Andres in Nutley: Wooo Hooo! Thanks Todd!
	👻 3:52pm Hoboken Jack: Thanks TOPT, I dig RBCF, almost as much as Mike Rosenberg does!
	3:52pm Sonicmeltdown: Matt Rendon runds MidTown Island Studio Records and you should heavily peruse their catalog of bands. There are many great bands who have recorded albums at his studio.
	3:52pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Andres In Nutley: Been to Rutt's Hut lately?
	3:52pm Jim H: @Sonicmeltdown: Are/were The Sidewinders/Sand Rubies in that crew?
	3:53pm efd: had to walk over to the computer keyboard to say "yay" for the Paley Brothers! Looking forward to that Exbats set!
	3:54pm JakeGould: Doing as best as one can do in this whole world… Visited Park Slope again and even more businesses on 5th Avenue are closed. Happily a few I still care about are still open. Sadly I’m starting to really absorb the sadness of what’s happening. For example, the line for NYC food pantry boxes near me was all the way down the block for more than an hour. Meaning as fast as they handed them out more people showed up. That was the case for 1.5 to 2 hours straight.
	3:55pm Sonicmeltdown: This killer performance from The Exbats in February in Tucson. https://youtu.be/0ix15mxclHw
	3:56pm Stashu: <3
	3:56pm Sonicmeltdown: Jim H. I am not sure.
	3:59pm Sonicmeltdown: Inez 4 Prez is a totally new song.
	3:59pm medson: Psyched for this live set.
	3:59pm listener 126464: Inez/Juniper 2027
	3:59pm Todd E: If the version of Satisfaction is from The Blow Up, yes it’s from My Father’s Place.
	👻 4:00pm Hoboken Jack: EFD and Medson Man in the house! Digging Exbats!
	4:00pm JakeGould: What Todd E says… www.thewonder.co.uk...
	4:01pm Gaylord Fields: Inez/K-pop Stans 2027!
	4:01pm Sonicmeltdown: E is For Exbats album is a tour de force. Every song is sick. Once you start listening to it you will listen to nothing else for a while.
	4:01pm mariano: "With all due respect, nobody has demonstrated more racism in his career than Biden." [voiceover: "This is your brain on talk radio."]
	4:01pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, Stashu!
	4:01pm medson: Hola Hoboken Jack. Hope all is well.
	4:02pm Mr. Pumpy: Gaylord's in the house!
	4:02pm Sonicmeltdown: Saw many great shows at Maxwell's in Hoboken.
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Gaylord! Stashu! Medson!
	4:03pm JakeGould: Not my house… In his own house… Properly socially distanced…
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Maybe I bumped into you once or twice @Sonicmeltdown
	4:03pm Gaylord Fields: Todd! Inez! Kenny! Bobby!
	4:04pm medson: @TOPT great show as always. Looking forward to the next two hours.
	4:04pm listener monica: me likey!
	4:04pm Sonicmeltdown: These songs are all from Kicks, Hits, and Fits from the Exbats.
	4:05pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Not "Inez For Prez 2027"
	4:05pm JakeGould: And here is the Exbats’ Bandcamp: theexbats.bandcamp.com
	4:06pm Spinning Giant: Great live set! Since I heard you playing the Exbats here Todd, I've been converting my friends one by one to their particularly delicious brand of rock n roll. Praise!!!
	4:06pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats have a range of songs. They are not going to be playing the harder punk songs due to the f-bombs but they have plenty of bad ass rockers.
	👻 4:07pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Yvonne, Gaylord! I did a double take reading the Exbats' description on Bandcamp: Do people still like hit songs? Like TOTP style hits? These are hits.
	4:07pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats were in fact in my video. https://youtu.be/WhPHQ3xVqYU
	4:08pm Dungaroos Kipawah: I love these zany kids. And yes, all hit songs in my world.
	4:09pm Choggie: I was in your jury, you were not in mine.
	4:10pm Choggie: Whatever happend to The Aquabats?
	4:11pm Sonicmeltdown: That was awesome!
	4:11pm Spinning Giant: tomtommag.com...
	4:12pm Bobby K: Love this!
	👻 4:12pm Hackensack Slim: Sonicmeltdown, Great Video. Hey Todd, Yo Medson.
	4:14pm Gaylord Fields: Inez/Old Lady Piano Teacher 2027!
	4:15pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: Works for me!
	4:15pm Sonicmeltdown: Hackensack, Thanks! We shot that in like 3 hours under heavy duress because the bar was prepping to open. I thought I screwed it up because we were so rushed but it turned out well.
	4:16pm Sonicmeltdown: Bobby was a huge fan of The Exbats. He's this real tall dude and he would show up and sing along. I think I shot photos of him in the audience before he joined the band.
	4:19pm Sonicmeltdown: Bobby was in The Ponies and it's about his ex-wife.
	4:20pm clarke: howdy 'Phonics!! don't have a lot of time here, this aft, but there's ALWAYS time for archives
	4:20pm Gaylord Fields: Aw, I was hoping they covered "Pins and Needles" by Ralph Kramden.
	4:20pm Sonicmeltdown: The song Florida is about Bobby. It was written by his ex-wife and sent to him and they used it for a song.
	4:21pm Dungaroos Kipawah: @Gaylord: It's a happy man that grins
	👻 4:22pm Hoboken Jack: Great set and delightful interview, thank you!
	4:22pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Dungaroos Kipawah: What am I mad about? Oh, that's not working so well right now...
	4:23pm Sonicmeltdown: Great interview. Really enjoyed it.
	4:23pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Hoboken Jack: You're welcome! Had to book them now so you couldn't grab them for your podcast first.
	4:23pm medson: What’s up H’sack Slim?
	4:23pm clarke: coooooollllll!!!!
	4:23pm Gaylord Fields: @Dungaroos: We all need those words as our personal mantra more than ever these days.
	4:24pm Sonicmeltdown: My favorite song on Kicks, Hits, and Fits is probably Good Enough For You.
	👻 4:26pm Hackensack Slim: Yay Juniper! Rocker, Roller, Film Critic. Triple Threat!
	4:27pm Christina Low: Juniper will learn in 10 years that the hot punk rock boy probably wasn't the best choice of guy.
	👻 4:28pm Hoboken Jack: Don't worry, Christina, that song was written by a 90 yr old man.
	4:28pm the Hoboken playwright: Will Charlie Watts be featured...? Hm.
	4:28pm Sonicmeltdown: The song Doorman by The Exbats was about an actual event that I was at. Inez got kicked out of a club they were going to play in because she was underage. So the entire crowd walked out of the club and walked down the street to another club and set-up and played. It was a magical night.
	4:28pm flashbazbo: Sk8er boy is chopped liver now.
	👻 4:30pm Hoboken Jack: If this set ain't got mojo Nixon, it sure could use some fixin
	4:30pm clarke: Marketing In Motion: you just reminded me i needed to order the Juniper LP -- DID. done. hopefully, this is a spike in sales during TopT hours.
	4:31pm mariano: Reminds me of a favorite Onion headline: "70-Year-Old Hippie Pitied by 50-Year-Old Punk" (I've updated the ages). Goes on to mention that both were in turn pitied by a 40-y-o raver sitting barefoot in the grass.
	4:32pm clarke: @mariano - how goes in the marigny?? will u venture into Phase Two, tonight??
	4:32pm JohnEBGood: HI Todd, Central Jersey, and my FMU family. Rock on all : )
	4:36pm mariano: Hey clarke! All good thanks, how's it by you? Think I might just stay in tonight, feeling kinda lazy. You? I ran an errand out by Magazine the other day, first time I'd been that far uptown in months. Beautiful time to be out though, been walking around here and the Quarter.
	4:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @mariano: How is New Orleans doing?
	4:38pm clarke: weather: incredible!! i lost a few friends, but my mom beat the virus!! trying to get outside in a bit, but i hardly went out when things were 'normal'.
	4:39pm clarke: it sure is going to be weird in the bars.
	4:40pm clarke: funny how mariano and i are worlds apart, yet so close. i always intend to get that way...
	4:41pm Sonicmeltdown: I have to run but if you are interested in all things Southern Arizona rock. (The Exbats, The Resonars, Lenguas Largas, Nanami Ozone, The Freezing Hands and many more) I post videos and photos on Sonicmeltdown on Instagram.
	4:44pm clarke: weary of the schmaltz, THIS is one of my ALL time faves!!
	4:44pm clarke: the bo that is. (bo knows)
	4:44pm Gaylord Fields: I never noticed before how much that Eddie and the Hot Rods song sounds like Freddy Cannon's "Abigail Beecher" — which is a good thing.
	4:44pm Greg from ZONE 5: Ahhh, McComb, MS. Birthplace of Britney Spears.
	4:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: Freddy meet Eddie!
	4:46pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd-o-phonic Todd: And they're both ready!
	4:47pm Sonicmeltdown: Todd, great setlist. I've dug every song.
	4:48pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sonicmeltdown: Great to have you on board, please visit again!
	👻 4:48pm Hoboken Jack: Be well, Mr Meltdown
	4:50pm clarke: gene pitney plays piano on that album, but, i hear no piano on that song
	4:51pm mariano: I'm so sorry to hear about your friends, clarke. I'm glad your mother is better. TOPT: NOLA's slowly coming back to life from what I can see. I see more people walking around, the little hotel across the street always seems to have people. Some restaurants are starting to open, with distancing restrictions.
	4:52pm clarke: thanks, M!! supposedly pitney stepped in on piano on some songs that ian stewart said he couldn't do.
	4:53pm clarke: stewart was strictly a blues scales guy and minor keys threw him off
	4:54pm mariano: Wait TOPT, you're saying Michael Shelley's the Frank Sinatra Jr of that duo? C'mon, you know he's the Frank Stallone.
	4:54pm clarke: pitney's piano is heard most on Flight 505
	4:54pm Jim H: Nominee for best song title ever! In the Corner, at the Table, by the Jukebox. My life.
	4:58pm JohnEBGood: Bo and Ron Wood had a nice gig in Manhattan a few years ago. It was awesome. Legends we are; ) lol
	4:58pm Spinning Giant: That James Hand tune was great!
	4:58pm clarke: and speaking of Piano: floyd cramer - wow.
	4:58pm Jett: Great but I still prefer the Don Gibson version.
	4:59pm Spinning Giant: Oooohh, now this is juicy! Be chewin on this one for awhile...
	5:00pm clarke: no one ever topped don's original versions, true.
	👻 5:00pm Hackensack Slim: In a alternate reality, Todd might be giving away Swamp Dogg tickets right about now.
	5:01pm Ignore Function: Yeah Swamp Dogg!
	5:01pm clarke: in an alternate world todd would BE swampdogg
	5:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and guests. Cooling out in the kitchen making lemonade on this lovely afternoon. I hope the Skeleton Crew is hanging in there.
	5:03pm medson: Does anyone remember the phone number to call for tickets? Hahaha.
	5:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Ken From Hyde Park: Please save a glass for me, my friend.
	👻 5:05pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Fab show TOPT! Digging the new Swamp Dogg & Nick Lowe.
	👻 5:07pm Frank In Queens: Awww, my favorite Creedence song.
	5:07pm Mr. Pumpy: Great show for a couple hours of food prep for me and pops. Thanks! Now good for a few salmon dinners with veg, chopped fruit for snackage, and a nice garlic/balsamic preparation to roast the sprouts in. Tons of garlic, as is the only path...
	5:07pm clarke: the acoustic guitar is mixed perfectly in 'there' on this
	5:08pm Spinning Giant: ...in an alternate world we'd all be sitting on the grass somewhere together watching and listening to Todd introduce SwampDogg & Friends at a big outdoor musicfest...
	5:10pm clarke: horse feathers!
	5:10pm Jett: Sounds gourmet Mr. Pumpy, I've been having a lot of Salmon lately. I baste it in lemon and butter to keep it from drying out.
	5:10pm Stuntz: Beautiful show, man.
	👻 5:10pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Jeff and HP Ken!
	5:13pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Stuntz: Thank you.

	5:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: Hot damn, George.
	5:18pm Stuntz: Margo Price was on Saturday sessions this morning, not last week as I originally thought. Prevagen ain’t helping my brain cell.
	5:19pm Bootsie: Good stuff, Todd!!
	5:21pm geezerette: Todd, what a swangin' show!
	👻 5:22pm Tommy in Neversink: James Hand sounds more like Hank than Hank Jr.
	5:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: 'Lo, Jack! In an alternate world, I'd be teleporting lemonade to you all, with ice.
	5:23pm clarke: i heard that ankle down here in the South!! wuz wondering what woke me..
	5:24pm Greg from ZONE 5: Well said, T-O-P.
	5:24pm seth from muddy creek: FMU 4 EVR
	5:24pm Phil Morrison: Ha ha ha ha!
	5:24pm battleaxe: @Todd: does your wife have Exploding Head Syndrome? Jonsey has it and has spoken about it a few times on his show. I'm a sufferer myself!
	5:25pm Mr. Pumpy: @Jett, pops is on a very strict diet due to his diabetes and kidney disease so I use a bit of sodium free garlic and herb spice, but on my salmon I use a nice rub by the Hungarian Szeged brand. They do it right. I used to be able to find it in the markets around here, but no longer can. I order it online now.
	👻 5:25pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hiya Jack. Vicky sez hello!
	5:25pm Phil Morrison: (ankle)
	5:26pm clarke: actually, anyone claiming that something woke them up was not sleeping soundly enough, anyway.
	5:27pm battleaxe: http://sleepeducation.org/sleep-disorders-by-category/parasomnias/exploding-head-syndrome/overview-facts
	5:27pm medson: Thanks for mentioning that Todd.
	5:28pm clarke: having a microphone strick-ly for the drum stick hits...
	5:29pm clarke: .. is VERY Dayton!
	5:35pm mariano: Aww, thanks TOPT!
	5:35pm Sylvia's Mother: My knees only crack when I crouch. My goodness, what position do you sleep in?
	5:36pm clarke: dont answer!
	5:37pm Spinning Giant: ...great great show today, Todd - so much territory was covered - thanks for the meander... Cheers all
	5:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Sylvia's Mother: How would I know? I'm asleep!
	5:37pm medson: Great set Todd.
	👻 5:38pm WO Town Wick: That comment about the CCR and Rolling Stones CD's was so true for the mediocre bars of the 1990's. Another standby you could usually find was AC/DC's Back in Black.
	5:38pm Spinning Giant: Still listening... and loving it all...just gotta get dinner on the hop for the progeny...
	5:39pm Pedro in Arlington: Brother Nutt would sanctify.
	5:39pm geezerette: Love Sister Tharp.
	👻 5:39pm Frank In Queens: The Doors Greatest Hits was another that would provide musical sanctuary in lame ass bars.
	5:40pm peachy.meep: ugh I'm so horny
	5:40pm Steve Harsh: Great show Todd, many thanks!
	5:40pm JohnEBGood: Legend says Dylan was grooved by Rev. Gary Davis up in Harlem. Thanks for exposing us back to the roots. Peace ; )
	5:41pm clarke: at one time i really liked The Doors. that time is long past.
	5:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Maybe for you!
	5:41pm peachy.meep: What time does the show end?
	5:43pm Sonicmeltdown: Some videos of interest. The Resonars crushing Black Breath. Matt Rendon singing and on lead guitar. Amazing drummer Johnnie Rinehart just crushing it. https://youtu.be/w6wrLVfOQTE
	5:43pm JakeGould: A Sinatra or Elvis CD could help too.
	5:44pm geezerette: If we can all convince the BLM marchers vote they can save the planet. Like The Electric Word says.
	5:45pm Ashley in VA: What do people even talk about in the comments?
	5:45pm Sonicmeltdown: The Exbats Inez comes out from behind the drums to lead a raucous addition of "Hercules". Matt Rendon filling in on drums. You see a theme. https://youtu.be/3TuGnNRT3v8
	5:46pm JakeGould: @geezerette: Why would you presume that “Black Lives Matter” protestors and marchers don’t — or won’t — vote?
	5:46pm Matt Clarke: Hello from the park! Sounds good Todd!
	5:46pm clarke: oh shit.
	5:46pm ChrisB.: Awwww...
	5:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks, Matt! Ashley in VA: The thing I like best in comments is when people are writing about how much they are enjoying my show.
	5:47pm Ashley in VA: Everybody tell me what your doing this second:
	5:47pm clarke: fun show TopT!!! as ALWAYS.
	5:47pm JakeGould: I am reading a comment.

	5:51pm Sonicmeltdown: Sister Rosetta Tharp rules!
	5:52pm radioronan: Thanks Todd - great show! Thanks skeleton crew!
	5:53pm Sonicmeltdown: "E is For Exbats" is the album you should stream or purchase immediately after this show. Also, my greatest photo.
	5:53pm geezerette: Jake, because they generally haven't. Young people in last few elections. I'm full of optimism now, and think a gentle nudge from each of us to the young people in our lives will be welcome.
	5:53pm Sonicmeltdown: Thanks Todd! I really enjoyed the show. You took us on a journey.
	5:54pm geezerette: Great show, Todd !
	5:55pm Corey: Thanks Todd for the great show! Thanks skeleton crew for getting it on the airwaves! Until next time, be well all.

	5:59pm slugluv1313: GORGEOUS!!! just got in to the tune of "This Guy's in Love With You" and really digging . . . wish i could have been here for the whole show :( (and REALLY nice music to drown out the boring crap the young-uns are playing across the courtyard -- first weekend with stay-at-home orders are lifted and they are out partying -- WORSE than the stuff piped in to the supermarkets when i was a kid) THANKS SO MUCH, TODD!!!
	8:51pm Handy Haversack: Todd, I had a vid. conf. and poker game with widely separated friends that I couldn't move -- but I had the show on as loud as I could manage on the FM airwaves. Exbat set was so good! Will revisit in the archives. Just wanted to thank you and to say I wish I could have been a part of the hangout!
