	♥ 9:05am ParUbi: Good morning, Trouble and everyone!
	♥ 9:06am Brian in New Orleans: Checking in from the "Big Squeegee"...
	♥ 9:07am YETI BOB: Hi ParUbi: Your ostrich-in-a-tesseract avatar led me to your listener page... we have similar tastes, I was just listening to Zoviet*France last night.
	♥ 9:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and modern people.
	♥ 9:08am Handy Haversack: Good morning, Trouble and all the Troubled. Space talk was confusing when I put the radio on, but I rode it out. "It's WFMU. Just go with it."
	9:09am fm Mike: Morning Trooooooouble! Morning Friends!
	♥ 9:09am PaulRobeson1920: Warm greetings to all, on this fine summer morning!

	♥ 9:10am PaulRobeson1920: Mother nature calls
	♥ 9:11am ParUbi: Nice, @Yeti Bob!
	♥ 9:11am pantz: You have to be a rocket scientist to understand this guy!
	9:12am mb: Hey DJ Trouble. G'morning people of WFMU
	♥ 9:12am PaulRobeson1920: “We choose to go to the Moon in THIS decade and do the other things...”
	♥ 9:14am Rtintera: @paulrobeson, what were the other things, i always wondered
	♥ 9:14am PaulRobeson1920: A determination to fight for genuine peace, baby!
	♥ 9:15am YETI BOB: Can you imagine being on the surface of the actual moon, that far away from home, with only one other person, knowing you can't survive there very long, and not being sure that your rocket would even get you home? Staying calm and collected and trying to ration your remaining electric power and not just totally FREAKING OUT? (which I'm sure is what I would have done!!!).
	9:15am ohp: sleeping on the roof. flaming lips.
	♥ 9:16am melinda: hi everyone!
	♥ 9:16am PaulRobeson1920: “...that goal will serve to organize and measure the Best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone...”
	♥ 9:16am YETI BOB: hey melinda, good morning
	♥ 9:17am listener james from westwood: RZA's bringin' the ice cream!
	♥ 9:17am PaulRobeson1920: Cooperation, as opposed to hostility. Good Sportsmanship on a global scale. Yeah!
	♥ 9:17am melinda: howdy Yeti
	9:17am Adrian in London: Hi Trouble. WFH, and listening hard.
	9:17am The Butterman: Yeti Bob, if you’re like me you’d be freaking out just filling out the application to get into the program.
	♥ 9:18am YETI BOB: I love the RZA ice cream jingle. But I want to know - are all the ice cream trucks going to get subwoofers now?
	9:18am Jay in Boston: hahaha noooo not again
	♥ 9:18am listener james from westwood: He should hook up with the ice cream guy in Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. They both being in Jersey City and all.
	♥ 9:18am PaulRobeson1920: Gotta love the moon
	♥ 9:18am PaulRobeson1920: Gotta love that moon
	♥ 9:19am Rtintera: "we were not able to keep up with the arms race, space race and the peace race,"
	♥ 9:19am YETI BOB: @PR: I've heard she's a harsh mistress
	9:20am Jay in Boston: john allen was playing the ice cream truck jingle repeatedly last week: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 9:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We were going to the Moon when I was toddler in the sandbox with my space toys - so it has deep resonance. We were stepping off Earth baby !
	♥ 9:22am YETI BOB: @RevRab: I remember one Sunday during my youth, being allowed to stay home from church to watch an Apollo launch ... this was somehow more important than Jesus (at least for that day)
	♥ 9:23am PaulRobeson1920: @Yeti Harsh mhmmm “ I can't pay no doctor bill. (but Whitey's on the moon)“
	9:24am fm Mike: This is gonna sound weird, but I swear that painting looks like a tweet where a guy is describing his family and supernatural events, and he had a picture of a person in that exact same pattern of clothing and said, "This is a certain type of witch doctor. If you ever see one like this at market, walk directly past and do not talk to them." Otherwise, pretty picture!
	9:25am Marc Francis: This is all so perfect. Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You get Gil's point (& they were all white males...) But the budget is 53% Military & who knows how little for the Universe... Overall - the whole Martian Chronicles idea of we'll only have to face our Inner Space the farther Out we go makes sense tho. Why polute another planet with sadism & waste if we just poop in our own doggy dish on Earth...
	9:28am nematomorpha: Hi all! Slowly recovering from a pretty bad stomach flu this is sooo trippy. Maybe i forgot i took it?
	♥ 9:28am YETI BOB: It would have been Apollo 10 (18 May 1969) or Apollo 16 ( 16 April 1972) - those were the only ones that launched on Sundays. It was probably the 1972 launch.
	9:30am SledDawg: I watched the first moon landing in the living room of a deaf mute couple while their son (not deaf mute) was doing a big pot deal with my friend. True...
	♥ 9:35am Pale Son: Playing all the hits this morning!
	♥ 9:37am cccinkc: Trouble, this whole thing is amazing! Thanks so much for this!
	♥ 9:37am PaulRobeson1920: Thats interesting Sleddawg. I imagine a hundred thousand+ 19year olds hearing about the Moon landing from the radio while in Vietnam
	♥ 9:38am Trouble: you are very welcome @ cccinkc!
	9:40am Bill W: Sounds like that interview track was a press briefing about the Apollo 13 crisis... though I thought it was Jules Bergman of ABC asking all the questions.
	♥ 9:40am Listener Gregory: Not sure what that all was, but pretty incredible.
	♥ 9:40am YETI BOB: they were really IMPROVISING, nobody had ever done this before
	♥ 9:41am melinda: Fab set!
	9:41am fm Mike: Did you know that the original Apollo broadcast was sent down to Australia, and was perfectly clear? It was only because it got transmitted across the world that we have that grainy audio of it, instead of the super clear audio!
	♥ 9:42am YETI BOB: 13 was the unlucky one, right?
	9:47am fm Mike: Moon Love started with the same second note as the first note of 'Savage'. I was like, "WHUT LOL" for a second!
	♥ 9:48am Handy Haversack: YB, yes -- I can see the VHS from here.
	♥ 9:48am Brian in New Orleans: love the grainy audio.....imagine it is space dust
	♥ 9:49am Trouble: thanks @yeti bob
	♥ 9:49am YETI BOB: Maybe they should have skipped over 13 and just called it Apollo 14 - like building elevators
	9:49am johnzo: HELLO MODERN WORLD & WORLDSTERS
	9:51am Warwick joe: Great great stuff
	9:52am fm Mike: @Yeti Bob, there was probably some New Yorker on that NASA naming team who said the same thing lol. And everyone was just like, "Hah, superstitious New Yorker."
	♥ 9:53am Handy Haversack: Apollo 11 was the one that worked -- the first landing. One of the A13 astronauts never got to land after having to abort, as I recall. The movie is competence porn but still worth a watch. Ed Harris looking concerned is always a treat.
	♥ 9:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Competence Porn ...you mean like - for women?...
	♥ 9:56am Handy Haversack: Like Ron Howard gently reassuring the US of A that, gosh darn it, white guys in ties can solve anything.
	♥ 9:56am YETI BOB: @HH: Nobody from A13 landed on the moon .... they looped around and came back without landing
	9:58am Bill W: The veteran commander of A13 was Jim Lovell, so it was expected he would get another shot, I guess. Instead he got to be played by Tom Hanks.
	♥ 9:58am Handy Haversack: YB: Right, but the astronaut corps wasn't that big. The expectation was that if they didn't land that time, there was still a good chance of doing so on another mission. But then we started deprioritizing landings, moved to the Space Shuttle, and then ceded space to private capital.
	♥ 9:59am YETI BOB: The Apollo missions were all "one guy stays on the orbiter (SM), two guys go land in the LEM". So there was always that one guy who made it most of the way to the moon, then had to hang out by himself while his buddies got to go play golf and plant flags and make famous quotes and stuff. (I have a lot of sympathy for astronauts)
	♥ 9:59am Trouble: good morning @bill W; glad to 'see' you!
	♥ 10:00am YETI BOB: @HH: Oh, I see what you mean
	10:00am Adrian in London: Oh lovely, The Apartments. I saw them play with Piano Magic in a tiny candlelit room in a recording studio in Crystal Palace a couple of years ago. What I’d give to go to such a gig now.
	♥ 10:00am Handy Haversack: Fred Haise "was to have been the sixth person to land and walk on the Moon, but the Apollo 13 mission was aborted before lunar landing. He went on to fly Space Shuttle Approach and Landing Tests in 1977, and retired from NASA in 1979."
	♥ 10:01am Joe McG: Thanks for the Apartments, Trouble. Always loved this song, always forget about it.
	♥ 10:02am Hughie Considine: I love how you just never know what The Modern World will serve up.
	♥ 10:02am Trouble: good morning@JOE!!!
	10:03am Bill W: Thank you, Trouble, it's good to be seen.
	♥ 10:03am melinda: Competence porn sounds pretty wholesome.
	♥ 10:05am βrian: J'adore les oiseaux !
	10:06am Ed From Jersey City: Good morning, Trouble and all the Troublistas.
	♥ 10:06am pantz: @Joe McG! It ain't Monday! Is it?
	10:07am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Trouble and all!
	♥ 10:07am Handy Haversack: Well done, Michigan eagle!
	♥ 10:09am Ken From Hyde Park: I hope the drone didn't contain toxic chemicals in the motors, batteries, etc.
	♥ 10:11am Trouble: good morning @ed!hellos to the family from me...
	♥ 10:11am Trouble: exactly @ hughie considine!
	♥ 10:13am βrian: This colleeen made my cat tip over and slip into peaceful reverie.
	♥ 10:13am Pale Son: I am so into the harp lately. Looked into possibly buying one as I'd love to learn to play. Unfortunately, they cost about $35,000!
	♥ 10:15am YETI BOB: @KFHP: They tried (unsuccessfully) to recover it - "shuffling feet for two hours in soft muck". Honestly one small drone in Lake Michigan is not going to make that much difference. Also the eagle appeared to be unharmed. Official report from the Michigan Department of the Environment here: www.michigan.gov... (I was hoping for video, but no)
	♥ 10:15am ParUbi: this fursaxa is pretty neat! <3
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: @pale son: alice coltrane's birthday is next thursday. and to celebrate the coltrane house is holding a concert live via facebook featuring harpist brandee younger. look up coltranehome on insta and perhaps their facebook name is the same?
	♥ 10:19am YETI BOB: This report from mighigan.gov is great!!! A few quotes (note, EGLE stands for "Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy", and the EGLE drone was brought down by an Eagle!) From the report: "Eagle populations have rebounded in Michigan. A 2019 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service survey showed 849 active nesting sites In Michigan, up from a low point of 76 nesting sites in the 1970s. EGLE reached out to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to see if it might issue a citation or violation notice to the rogue eagle. A spokesperson said the agency has no mechanism or authority to issue corrective action notices to individual, non-human wildlife, noting it would likely take an act of the legislature to do so. Even then, it might be subject to a legal challenge. "Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do," the spokesman said. "Nature is a cruel and unforgiving mistress."
	♥ 10:20am βrian: So the eagle really just made an editorial correction.
	♥ 10:20am Pale Son: Oh nice, thanks, Trouble! Been listening to a lot of AC these days. I'm not on FB, but should be able to hack in somehow.
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Yeah, we go to Western MI, near the lake, every year (except this one, damn it), and over the last 25 years I have watched eagles become, if not common, at least expected. It is strange not to see one pretty much daily out there, and there are a few spots we know where they nest and we can expect to see them.
	♥ 10:21am Trouble: many pages are open to the public, so you don't have to 'be on' facebook...
	♥ 10:22am Pale Son: Awesome. That pretty much suits the level of my hacking skills. :)
	♥ 10:24am Ike: @Yeti Bob, that's a riot!
	♥ 10:27am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ T H U R S D A Y ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	10:27am Sylvia (France-NYC): news from the world: Steve Bannon has been arrested!
	♥ 10:28am Yes: hello everyone.
	♥ 10:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Only the best people, Sylvia!
	♥ 10:29am Trouble: merci@jason from houston. That is fantastique@sylvie!
	♥ 10:29am βrian: But Bannon was such an upright citizen, no? I'm shocked!
	♥ 10:33am βrian: My favorite decimal.
	♥ 10:34am YETI BOB: Earlier this year Bannon said: "When people see the difference between the order of Trump and the chaos of Biden, I think it’s going to be a pretty clear choice and I think Biden’s going to have a very tough time making this case to people." Yeah, Nothing says "order" like a slew of indictments!
	10:34am Really Lisa: If only they'd cart off the like-minded white nationalist shark-eyed monster Stephen Miller next.. and that other grifter still pretty high up in the current US admin..
	10:35am Sylvia (France-NYC): he stole the GoFundMe money for the wall... pathetic to the core
	10:36am Really Lisa: Ça va Sylvia. Hope you're well.
	♥ 10:36am Jason from Houston: Gaslighters of the worrrrrrld, unite and take ooooover...
	♥ 10:36am Jason from Houston: But like, don't...
	♥ 10:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nazis cannibalize each other...Drumpf's already been impeached by the House - so the Vote is our turn to complete it.
	♥ 10:38am Trouble: i love when truly evil peeps get snagged on a no brainer moment: shows that they have lost their sense of how to be a person in the world
	♥ 10:38am redbee: Is anyone else as amazed as I am that it took Trump this long to embrace QAnon?
	♥ 10:39am redbee: Trouble, absolutely, but I wonder if they just never had that sense in the first place :/
	10:39am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Really Lisa oui, ça va, I was very sad yesterday, and today I'm trying to go back to a more peaceful state of mind...
	♥ 10:40am Trouble: has everyone here figured out how they are going to cast their vote in november? mail in? drop box, in person? are you registered? go to vote.org for more info on your state rules and opportunities...
	♥ 10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @redbee: Drumpf @ this point has nothing to lose trying to stay Chief Executive & immune from indictments. I expect him to act true to his biography & pull out every cheap Con he can. Including louder & clearer 'dogwhistles' than ever.
	♥ 10:41am Crudbringer: WFMU is just chock-a-block with good news this morning. First, I find out that Lonnie Holley and Vangelis recorded a cover of the Apollo missions, and now Bannon has been arrested by <reads>... agents from the U. S. Postal Service?
	10:42am Really Lisa: @Sylvia, sorry to see yesterday was a down day for you. I hope today brings positive change.
	♥ 10:43am redbee: Rev—yes, absolutely, I think this is his "kitchen sink" moment. Really dizzying. Crudbringer—haha!! Perfect
	♥ 10:44am Trouble: great article in last week's new yorker about how the wisconsin dairy farmers who uncharacteristically voted for drump have seen the light of day and see this administration cares very little for the little people. www.newyorker.com...
	10:45am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Really Lisa thank you
	♥ 10:45am redbee: @Trouble: I want to vote in the way that's the most supportive to the USPS, whatever that might be. Would drop-offs alleviate their burden? Or would mailing it in prove that they're necessary and essential to keep sustained? Hmm...
	♥ 10:46am Trouble: please vote in the way that gets it there@ redbee! go out and buy a pantload of stamps if you want to support the usps.
	10:48am Barbara in PA: Particularly beautiful show today, thank you, Trouble
	♥ 10:49am Trouble: gracias@ barbara in PA!
	♥ 10:50am Trouble: tell me more about this lonnie holley vangelis thang@ crudbringer: news to me!
	10:53am queems: i’ve really been enjoying the show today! i’m at my family’s lakehouse decorating cookies with my sister and the 90.1 signal keeps getting crossed with some sort of jesus radio station so that’s been interesting
	♥ 10:53am Crudbringer: Nah, I took off riding my bike this morning and had you on the headphones, so I couldn't see the playlist, and I was forced to try and guess who was jamming with the apollo 13 chatter.
	♥ 10:54am maestroso: I have this ceu record, it's quite good. I'm interested to hear how you pronounce it, DJ Trouble.
	♥ 10:55am Hubig Pie: Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon !
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: @maestroso: i think it's something like "say you", is that right?
	10:55am mb: Mariah! Oh wait. My fault. Thats the Jersey Pride speaking.
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: ooooo, that's funny @crudbringer!
	♥ 10:56am Trouble: @queems: sounds like a perfect wfmu moment...
	♥ 10:57am Handy Haversack: Does it still count as having showered if one's dog proceeds to spend a couple of minutes licking every last molecule of soap off your shins? At any rate, that was good hair-cutting music. I am shorn!
	10:57am queems: @trouble it is, it’s excellent
	♥ 10:58am βrian: I read an article about a guy whose dog licked his leg. He later died of the resulting infection. Oy!
	10:59am Arlene: G'morning! Possible to mention rallies at post offices happening Sat. 11 am across the country? I think I wrote you that we're having one at Central Ave PO in Heights. If you feel this is inappropriate, no worries.. Enjoying the show!
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Yeah, but had he showered, βrian? Hi, Barbara in PA! Bonjour, Sylvia!
	♥ 11:00am Trouble: yes@arlene! thanks!!!
	11:00am Zee: Yessssssssss
	11:01am queems: postal service won over my sister
	♥ 11:02am βrian: I don't recommend google-image searching for "dog lick mrsa," by the way.
	♥ 11:02am Crudbringer: @Handy which Dr. Bronner's is the HandyMutt's flavorite?
	♥ 11:03am Trouble: this saturday people are showing up at post offices all over the country at 11:00 am to protest the postmaster's incompetence and drumps attempts to knee cap the PO to prevent mail in voting come November. indivisiblesb.org...
	♥ 11:03am PaulRobeson1920: What a good song
	11:03am Peter in SEA: Joining late bonjour trouble and Thursday people I really want to read Chris Frantz’ book has anybody yet?
	11:03am Mike VL: Great set
	♥ 11:03am PaulRobeson1920: Songs
	♥ 11:03am redbee: @Crudbringer: Oh god I just realized you weren't kidding about the USPS assisting in the arrest of Bannon. I totally thought that was a joke! That's... absolutely marvelous
	11:03am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Handy Bonjour ! I forgot to mention: listen to the cd until the very end after the last track... Hope you and Kate are doing good
	♥ 11:05am Yes: lovely set
	♥ 11:05am Handy Haversack: Will do, Sylvia! We are driving out of town tomorrow and very excited to bring new CDs in the car. We're getting away for the weekend and Kate's birthday. Pretty excited about that!
	11:09am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Handy oh, we love doing this, too! just enjoying the scenery while listening to albums, good times
	11:10am sugarwolf: Mail between here and NJ has been surprisingly quick.
	11:11am Erella: So great to hear your voice and music today Trouble. Thank you
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Trouble and crew!
	♥ 11:14am Trouble: i read remain in love @ peter! i enjoyed it!
	11:15am E Brown: Well thats just it isnt it? The DNC wants everyone to vote before the first debate because they know trump will crush Biden. RIGHT?
	♥ 11:15am Trouble: thanks@Mike VL, bonjour @erella!!
	11:15am Earth Walker: Trouble Thanks for all the Wonderful Info !!!
	11:16am Earth Walker: And of course Wonderful Music !
	♥ 11:17am Carmichael: Heya Trubb and FMUers. Who's the board op this morning?
	♥ 11:17am duke: Got back just in time for Bobby Oroza . I have been listening to him a lot lately.
	11:18am E Brown: Vote by mail = massive voter fraud
	♥ 11:18am Trouble: you are very welcome @ earth walker!
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: @carmichael-matt warwick is the man on the board today, holding it all down at mission control!
	♥ 11:20am tim from champaign (now washington): I live in a state with mail in voting. It's awesome! The state also provides a non-partisan published voter guide that is excellent. Ballots can be mailed or dropped off. I spend a lot of time driving in rural areas of the county I live in and have seen that drop boxes are pretty easy to get to. Boxes are typically found at libraries, fire stations, government building et al.
	♥ 11:20am Yes: great tim maia track :)
	♥ 11:20am Carmichael: Maybe Matt can work his zapping magic ... I see Brian Eno in the setlist. Guess I'll be in the archives later!
	11:21am Earth Walker: Yeti Bob Fly like an eagle
	♥ 11:21am juan: Wonderful show as usual, Trouble. Loving this Tim Maia - Thank you!
	♥ 11:22am Jason from Houston: (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ ♫ ♫ ♫
	♥ 11:25am βrian: Reggae ususally puts me to sleep, but I love this.
	11:26am Earth Walker: Please turn up the volume
	♥ 11:28am Trouble: thanks@juan!!
	11:32am Earth Walker: Do away with the Electoral College Vote Go popular !
	♥ 11:36am βrian: Les oiseaux lancent l'alarme: "Allez voter !"
	11:38am Pat Byrne: Hi Trouble, can you share a link with that NJ voting rights?
	♥ 11:40am Trouble: vote.org is all i can give you for now@pat. i was reading that from a news article i screen grabbed
	♥ 11:41am tim from champaign (now washington): Trouble - that's awesome about the Coltrane house. I had no idea. Did you see the Maggot Brain mag cover feature on Alice Coltrane. It was cool but maybe not revelatory for Alice fans. There's an Alex Brown painting of ALice Coltrane in it that's pretty amazing.
	11:43am sphere: hello people. i saw this link on New Jersey voting at the Washington Post site: www.washingtonpost.com...
	11:43am sphere: it's news, not "how to vote."
	11:44am Pat Byrne: Thank you!
	♥ 11:45am Trouble: @sphere:I read from the governor's announcement about how NJ would be able to vote
	11:46am Barbara in PA: Hi Handy, hope you can come eagle-watching out here again soon. Two eaglets in the nest this year.
	11:46am mb: ooh tis Lttle Tempo is v nice. Steel drums? Likey.

	♥ 11:52am Handy Haversack: Barbara -- that's great! We're heading farther north this weekend, to Hobart, NY, but we hope to be back to the Upper Delaware soon, too!
	♥ 11:54am βrian: I recall walking out of our local food coöp a few years back and looking up to see a Bald Eagle soaring about 100 ft in the air, silhouetted against a brilliant blue sky.
	♥ 11:55am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am Yes: beautiful show today. thank you all
	♥ 11:56am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Thanks, Skeleton Matt. Have a good day!

	♥ 9:05am ParUbi: Good morning, Trouble and everyone!
	♥ 9:06am Brian in New Orleans: Checking in from the "Big Squeegee"...
	♥ 9:07am YETI BOB: Hi ParUbi: Your ostrich-in-a-tesseract avatar led me to your listener page... we have similar tastes, I was just listening to Zoviet*France last night.
	♥ 9:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and modern people.
	♥ 9:08am Handy Haversack: Good morning, Trouble and all the Troubled. Space talk was confusing when I put the radio on, but I rode it out. "It's WFMU. Just go with it."
	9:09am fm Mike: Morning Trooooooouble! Morning Friends!
	♥ 9:09am PaulRobeson1920: Warm greetings to all, on this fine summer morning!

	♥ 9:10am PaulRobeson1920: Mother nature calls
	♥ 9:11am ParUbi: Nice, @Yeti Bob!
	♥ 9:11am pantz: You have to be a rocket scientist to understand this guy!
	9:12am mb: Hey DJ Trouble. G'morning people of WFMU
	♥ 9:12am PaulRobeson1920: “We choose to go to the Moon in THIS decade and do the other things...”
	♥ 9:14am Rtintera: @paulrobeson, what were the other things, i always wondered
	♥ 9:14am PaulRobeson1920: A determination to fight for genuine peace, baby!
	♥ 9:15am YETI BOB: Can you imagine being on the surface of the actual moon, that far away from home, with only one other person, knowing you can't survive there very long, and not being sure that your rocket would even get you home? Staying calm and collected and trying to ration your remaining electric power and not just totally FREAKING OUT? (which I'm sure is what I would have done!!!).
	9:15am ohp: sleeping on the roof. flaming lips.
	♥ 9:16am melinda: hi everyone!
	♥ 9:16am PaulRobeson1920: “...that goal will serve to organize and measure the Best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone...”
	♥ 9:16am YETI BOB: hey melinda, good morning
	♥ 9:17am listener james from westwood: RZA's bringin' the ice cream!
	♥ 9:17am PaulRobeson1920: Cooperation, as opposed to hostility. Good Sportsmanship on a global scale. Yeah!
	♥ 9:17am melinda: howdy Yeti
	9:17am Adrian in London: Hi Trouble. WFH, and listening hard.
	9:17am The Butterman: Yeti Bob, if you’re like me you’d be freaking out just filling out the application to get into the program.
	♥ 9:18am YETI BOB: I love the RZA ice cream jingle. But I want to know - are all the ice cream trucks going to get subwoofers now?
	9:18am Jay in Boston: hahaha noooo not again
	♥ 9:18am listener james from westwood: He should hook up with the ice cream guy in Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. They both being in Jersey City and all.
	♥ 9:18am PaulRobeson1920: Gotta love the moon
	♥ 9:18am PaulRobeson1920: Gotta love that moon
	♥ 9:19am Rtintera: "we were not able to keep up with the arms race, space race and the peace race,"
	♥ 9:19am YETI BOB: @PR: I've heard she's a harsh mistress
	9:20am Jay in Boston: john allen was playing the ice cream truck jingle repeatedly last week: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 9:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We were going to the Moon when I was toddler in the sandbox with my space toys - so it has deep resonance. We were stepping off Earth baby !
	♥ 9:22am YETI BOB: @RevRab: I remember one Sunday during my youth, being allowed to stay home from church to watch an Apollo launch ... this was somehow more important than Jesus (at least for that day)
	♥ 9:23am PaulRobeson1920: @Yeti Harsh mhmmm “ I can't pay no doctor bill. (but Whitey's on the moon)“
	9:24am fm Mike: This is gonna sound weird, but I swear that painting looks like a tweet where a guy is describing his family and supernatural events, and he had a picture of a person in that exact same pattern of clothing and said, "This is a certain type of witch doctor. If you ever see one like this at market, walk directly past and do not talk to them." Otherwise, pretty picture!
	9:25am Marc Francis: This is all so perfect. Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You get Gil's point (& they were all white males...) But the budget is 53% Military & who knows how little for the Universe... Overall - the whole Martian Chronicles idea of we'll only have to face our Inner Space the farther Out we go makes sense tho. Why polute another planet with sadism & waste if we just poop in our own doggy dish on Earth...
	9:28am nematomorpha: Hi all! Slowly recovering from a pretty bad stomach flu this is sooo trippy. Maybe i forgot i took it?
	♥ 9:28am YETI BOB: It would have been Apollo 10 (18 May 1969) or Apollo 16 ( 16 April 1972) - those were the only ones that launched on Sundays. It was probably the 1972 launch.
	9:30am SledDawg: I watched the first moon landing in the living room of a deaf mute couple while their son (not deaf mute) was doing a big pot deal with my friend. True...
	♥ 9:35am Pale Son: Playing all the hits this morning!
	♥ 9:37am cccinkc: Trouble, this whole thing is amazing! Thanks so much for this!
	♥ 9:37am PaulRobeson1920: Thats interesting Sleddawg. I imagine a hundred thousand+ 19year olds hearing about the Moon landing from the radio while in Vietnam
	♥ 9:38am Trouble: you are very welcome @ cccinkc!
	9:40am Bill W: Sounds like that interview track was a press briefing about the Apollo 13 crisis... though I thought it was Jules Bergman of ABC asking all the questions.
	♥ 9:40am Listener Gregory: Not sure what that all was, but pretty incredible.
	♥ 9:40am YETI BOB: they were really IMPROVISING, nobody had ever done this before
	♥ 9:41am melinda: Fab set!
	9:41am fm Mike: Did you know that the original Apollo broadcast was sent down to Australia, and was perfectly clear? It was only because it got transmitted across the world that we have that grainy audio of it, instead of the super clear audio!
	♥ 9:42am YETI BOB: 13 was the unlucky one, right?
	9:47am fm Mike: Moon Love started with the same second note as the first note of 'Savage'. I was like, "WHUT LOL" for a second!
	♥ 9:48am Handy Haversack: YB, yes -- I can see the VHS from here.
	♥ 9:48am Brian in New Orleans: love the grainy audio.....imagine it is space dust
	♥ 9:49am Trouble: thanks @yeti bob
	♥ 9:49am YETI BOB: Maybe they should have skipped over 13 and just called it Apollo 14 - like building elevators
	9:49am johnzo: HELLO MODERN WORLD & WORLDSTERS
	9:51am Warwick joe: Great great stuff
	9:52am fm Mike: @Yeti Bob, there was probably some New Yorker on that NASA naming team who said the same thing lol. And everyone was just like, "Hah, superstitious New Yorker."
	♥ 9:53am Handy Haversack: Apollo 11 was the one that worked -- the first landing. One of the A13 astronauts never got to land after having to abort, as I recall. The movie is competence porn but still worth a watch. Ed Harris looking concerned is always a treat.
	♥ 9:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Competence Porn ...you mean like - for women?...
	♥ 9:56am Handy Haversack: Like Ron Howard gently reassuring the US of A that, gosh darn it, white guys in ties can solve anything.
	♥ 9:56am YETI BOB: @HH: Nobody from A13 landed on the moon .... they looped around and came back without landing
	9:58am Bill W: The veteran commander of A13 was Jim Lovell, so it was expected he would get another shot, I guess. Instead he got to be played by Tom Hanks.
	♥ 9:58am Handy Haversack: YB: Right, but the astronaut corps wasn't that big. The expectation was that if they didn't land that time, there was still a good chance of doing so on another mission. But then we started deprioritizing landings, moved to the Space Shuttle, and then ceded space to private capital.
	♥ 9:59am YETI BOB: The Apollo missions were all "one guy stays on the orbiter (SM), two guys go land in the LEM". So there was always that one guy who made it most of the way to the moon, then had to hang out by himself while his buddies got to go play golf and plant flags and make famous quotes and stuff. (I have a lot of sympathy for astronauts)
	♥ 9:59am Trouble: good morning @bill W; glad to 'see' you!
	♥ 10:00am YETI BOB: @HH: Oh, I see what you mean
	10:00am Adrian in London: Oh lovely, The Apartments. I saw them play with Piano Magic in a tiny candlelit room in a recording studio in Crystal Palace a couple of years ago. What I’d give to go to such a gig now.
	♥ 10:00am Handy Haversack: Fred Haise "was to have been the sixth person to land and walk on the Moon, but the Apollo 13 mission was aborted before lunar landing. He went on to fly Space Shuttle Approach and Landing Tests in 1977, and retired from NASA in 1979."
	♥ 10:01am Joe McG: Thanks for the Apartments, Trouble. Always loved this song, always forget about it.
	♥ 10:02am Hughie Considine: I love how you just never know what The Modern World will serve up.
	♥ 10:02am Trouble: good morning@JOE!!!
	10:03am Bill W: Thank you, Trouble, it's good to be seen.
	♥ 10:03am melinda: Competence porn sounds pretty wholesome.
	♥ 10:05am βrian: J'adore les oiseaux !
	10:06am Ed From Jersey City: Good morning, Trouble and all the Troublistas.
	♥ 10:06am pantz: @Joe McG! It ain't Monday! Is it?
	10:07am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Trouble and all!
	♥ 10:07am Handy Haversack: Well done, Michigan eagle!
	♥ 10:09am Ken From Hyde Park: I hope the drone didn't contain toxic chemicals in the motors, batteries, etc.
	♥ 10:11am Trouble: good morning @ed!hellos to the family from me...
	♥ 10:11am Trouble: exactly @ hughie considine!
	♥ 10:13am βrian: This colleeen made my cat tip over and slip into peaceful reverie.
	♥ 10:13am Pale Son: I am so into the harp lately. Looked into possibly buying one as I'd love to learn to play. Unfortunately, they cost about $35,000!
	♥ 10:15am YETI BOB: @KFHP: They tried (unsuccessfully) to recover it - "shuffling feet for two hours in soft muck". Honestly one small drone in Lake Michigan is not going to make that much difference. Also the eagle appeared to be unharmed. Official report from the Michigan Department of the Environment here: www.michigan.gov... (I was hoping for video, but no)
	♥ 10:15am ParUbi: this fursaxa is pretty neat! <3
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: @pale son: alice coltrane's birthday is next thursday. and to celebrate the coltrane house is holding a concert live via facebook featuring harpist brandee younger. look up coltranehome on insta and perhaps their facebook name is the same?
	♥ 10:19am YETI BOB: This report from mighigan.gov is great!!! A few quotes (note, EGLE stands for "Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy", and the EGLE drone was brought down by an Eagle!) From the report: "Eagle populations have rebounded in Michigan. A 2019 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service survey showed 849 active nesting sites In Michigan, up from a low point of 76 nesting sites in the 1970s. EGLE reached out to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to see if it might issue a citation or violation notice to the rogue eagle. A spokesperson said the agency has no mechanism or authority to issue corrective action notices to individual, non-human wildlife, noting it would likely take an act of the legislature to do so. Even then, it might be subject to a legal challenge. "Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do," the spokesman said. "Nature is a cruel and unforgiving mistress."
	♥ 10:20am βrian: So the eagle really just made an editorial correction.
	♥ 10:20am Pale Son: Oh nice, thanks, Trouble! Been listening to a lot of AC these days. I'm not on FB, but should be able to hack in somehow.
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Yeah, we go to Western MI, near the lake, every year (except this one, damn it), and over the last 25 years I have watched eagles become, if not common, at least expected. It is strange not to see one pretty much daily out there, and there are a few spots we know where they nest and we can expect to see them.
	♥ 10:21am Trouble: many pages are open to the public, so you don't have to 'be on' facebook...
	♥ 10:22am Pale Son: Awesome. That pretty much suits the level of my hacking skills. :)
	♥ 10:24am Ike: @Yeti Bob, that's a riot!
	♥ 10:27am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ T H U R S D A Y ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	10:27am Sylvia (France-NYC): news from the world: Steve Bannon has been arrested!
	♥ 10:28am Yes: hello everyone.
	♥ 10:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Only the best people, Sylvia!
	♥ 10:29am Trouble: merci@jason from houston. That is fantastique@sylvie!
	♥ 10:29am βrian: But Bannon was such an upright citizen, no? I'm shocked!
	♥ 10:33am βrian: My favorite decimal.
	♥ 10:34am YETI BOB: Earlier this year Bannon said: "When people see the difference between the order of Trump and the chaos of Biden, I think it’s going to be a pretty clear choice and I think Biden’s going to have a very tough time making this case to people." Yeah, Nothing says "order" like a slew of indictments!
	10:34am Really Lisa: If only they'd cart off the like-minded white nationalist shark-eyed monster Stephen Miller next.. and that other grifter still pretty high up in the current US admin..
	10:35am Sylvia (France-NYC): he stole the GoFundMe money for the wall... pathetic to the core
	10:36am Really Lisa: Ça va Sylvia. Hope you're well.
	♥ 10:36am Jason from Houston: Gaslighters of the worrrrrrld, unite and take ooooover...
	♥ 10:36am Jason from Houston: But like, don't...
	♥ 10:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nazis cannibalize each other...Drumpf's already been impeached by the House - so the Vote is our turn to complete it.
	♥ 10:38am Trouble: i love when truly evil peeps get snagged on a no brainer moment: shows that they have lost their sense of how to be a person in the world
	♥ 10:38am redbee: Is anyone else as amazed as I am that it took Trump this long to embrace QAnon?
	♥ 10:39am redbee: Trouble, absolutely, but I wonder if they just never had that sense in the first place :/
	10:39am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Really Lisa oui, ça va, I was very sad yesterday, and today I'm trying to go back to a more peaceful state of mind...
	♥ 10:40am Trouble: has everyone here figured out how they are going to cast their vote in november? mail in? drop box, in person? are you registered? go to vote.org for more info on your state rules and opportunities...
	♥ 10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @redbee: Drumpf @ this point has nothing to lose trying to stay Chief Executive & immune from indictments. I expect him to act true to his biography & pull out every cheap Con he can. Including louder & clearer 'dogwhistles' than ever.
	♥ 10:41am Crudbringer: WFMU is just chock-a-block with good news this morning. First, I find out that Lonnie Holley and Vangelis recorded a cover of the Apollo missions, and now Bannon has been arrested by <reads>... agents from the U. S. Postal Service?
	10:42am Really Lisa: @Sylvia, sorry to see yesterday was a down day for you. I hope today brings positive change.
	♥ 10:43am redbee: Rev—yes, absolutely, I think this is his "kitchen sink" moment. Really dizzying. Crudbringer—haha!! Perfect
	♥ 10:44am Trouble: great article in last week's new yorker about how the wisconsin dairy farmers who uncharacteristically voted for drump have seen the light of day and see this administration cares very little for the little people. www.newyorker.com...
	10:45am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Really Lisa thank you
	♥ 10:45am redbee: @Trouble: I want to vote in the way that's the most supportive to the USPS, whatever that might be. Would drop-offs alleviate their burden? Or would mailing it in prove that they're necessary and essential to keep sustained? Hmm...
	♥ 10:46am Trouble: please vote in the way that gets it there@ redbee! go out and buy a pantload of stamps if you want to support the usps.
	10:48am Barbara in PA: Particularly beautiful show today, thank you, Trouble
	♥ 10:49am Trouble: gracias@ barbara in PA!
	♥ 10:50am Trouble: tell me more about this lonnie holley vangelis thang@ crudbringer: news to me!
	10:53am queems: i’ve really been enjoying the show today! i’m at my family’s lakehouse decorating cookies with my sister and the 90.1 signal keeps getting crossed with some sort of jesus radio station so that’s been interesting
	♥ 10:53am Crudbringer: Nah, I took off riding my bike this morning and had you on the headphones, so I couldn't see the playlist, and I was forced to try and guess who was jamming with the apollo 13 chatter.
	♥ 10:54am maestroso: I have this ceu record, it's quite good. I'm interested to hear how you pronounce it, DJ Trouble.
	♥ 10:55am Hubig Pie: Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon !
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: @maestroso: i think it's something like "say you", is that right?
	10:55am mb: Mariah! Oh wait. My fault. Thats the Jersey Pride speaking.
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: ooooo, that's funny @crudbringer!
	♥ 10:56am Trouble: @queems: sounds like a perfect wfmu moment...
	♥ 10:57am Handy Haversack: Does it still count as having showered if one's dog proceeds to spend a couple of minutes licking every last molecule of soap off your shins? At any rate, that was good hair-cutting music. I am shorn!
	10:57am queems: @trouble it is, it’s excellent
	♥ 10:58am βrian: I read an article about a guy whose dog licked his leg. He later died of the resulting infection. Oy!
	10:59am Arlene: G'morning! Possible to mention rallies at post offices happening Sat. 11 am across the country? I think I wrote you that we're having one at Central Ave PO in Heights. If you feel this is inappropriate, no worries.. Enjoying the show!
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Yeah, but had he showered, βrian? Hi, Barbara in PA! Bonjour, Sylvia!
	♥ 11:00am Trouble: yes@arlene! thanks!!!
	11:00am Zee: Yessssssssss
	11:01am queems: postal service won over my sister
	♥ 11:02am βrian: I don't recommend google-image searching for "dog lick mrsa," by the way.
	♥ 11:02am Crudbringer: @Handy which Dr. Bronner's is the HandyMutt's flavorite?
	♥ 11:03am Trouble: this saturday people are showing up at post offices all over the country at 11:00 am to protest the postmaster's incompetence and drumps attempts to knee cap the PO to prevent mail in voting come November. indivisiblesb.org...
	♥ 11:03am PaulRobeson1920: What a good song
	11:03am Peter in SEA: Joining late bonjour trouble and Thursday people I really want to read Chris Frantz’ book has anybody yet?
	11:03am Mike VL: Great set
	♥ 11:03am PaulRobeson1920: Songs
	♥ 11:03am redbee: @Crudbringer: Oh god I just realized you weren't kidding about the USPS assisting in the arrest of Bannon. I totally thought that was a joke! That's... absolutely marvelous
	11:03am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Handy Bonjour ! I forgot to mention: listen to the cd until the very end after the last track... Hope you and Kate are doing good
	♥ 11:05am Yes: lovely set
	♥ 11:05am Handy Haversack: Will do, Sylvia! We are driving out of town tomorrow and very excited to bring new CDs in the car. We're getting away for the weekend and Kate's birthday. Pretty excited about that!
	11:09am Sylvia (France-NYC): @Handy oh, we love doing this, too! just enjoying the scenery while listening to albums, good times
	11:10am sugarwolf: Mail between here and NJ has been surprisingly quick.
	11:11am Erella: So great to hear your voice and music today Trouble. Thank you
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Trouble and crew!
	♥ 11:14am Trouble: i read remain in love @ peter! i enjoyed it!
	11:15am E Brown: Well thats just it isnt it? The DNC wants everyone to vote before the first debate because they know trump will crush Biden. RIGHT?
	♥ 11:15am Trouble: thanks@Mike VL, bonjour @erella!!
	11:15am Earth Walker: Trouble Thanks for all the Wonderful Info !!!
	11:16am Earth Walker: And of course Wonderful Music !
	♥ 11:17am Carmichael: Heya Trubb and FMUers. Who's the board op this morning?
	♥ 11:17am duke: Got back just in time for Bobby Oroza . I have been listening to him a lot lately.
	11:18am E Brown: Vote by mail = massive voter fraud
	♥ 11:18am Trouble: you are very welcome @ earth walker!
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: @carmichael-matt warwick is the man on the board today, holding it all down at mission control!
	♥ 11:20am tim from champaign (now washington): I live in a state with mail in voting. It's awesome! The state also provides a non-partisan published voter guide that is excellent. Ballots can be mailed or dropped off. I spend a lot of time driving in rural areas of the county I live in and have seen that drop boxes are pretty easy to get to. Boxes are typically found at libraries, fire stations, government building et al.
	♥ 11:20am Yes: great tim maia track :)
	♥ 11:20am Carmichael: Maybe Matt can work his zapping magic ... I see Brian Eno in the setlist. Guess I'll be in the archives later!
