	11:56am Matt Clarke: Gettin' my shoes shined up now
	11:57am Mike Sin: Hi Matt! No cover today -- feel free to walk right in! ;)
	11:58am Matt Clarke: Excellent! I'm pretty broke from buying all that discounted candy at CVS
	12:03pm Marc Francis: Howdy Mike! Howdy Matt!
	12:05pm Mike Sin: Hey there Marc Francis!
	12:05pm Matt Clarke: Hey Marc! How ya doin?
	12:05pm Mailman Tom: Hi Mike! I noticed that all the remote programs make the DJs sound as if they were broadcasting from the bottom of an empty well. I guess that can't be helped. I'm just thankful that WFMU is still on the air!
	12:07pm Woo: Hi to Mike Sin.
	12:07pm Mike Sin: Hi Mailman Tom! That reverb you are hearing is a special brew created especially for WFMU's Rock'n'Soul Radio stream!
	12:07pm Frank In Queens: Happy Sunday
	12:07pm Mike Sin: Welcome, Woo! Thanks for tuning in!
	12:08pm Matt Clarke: Hey Frankie. How was your Halloween?
	12:09pm Mike Sin: Frankie! Hey there, man!
	12:09pm Lee: Hey Mike, and everyone, this Paragons track is one of my all-time favourites. U-Roy does a great version also.
	12:10pm Matt Clarke: Hey there Lee!
	12:11pm Matt Clarke: Always good to hear the Pioneers
	12:11pm Mike Sin: Hi Lee! Thanks for listening! I'll have to check and see if I have U-Roy version.
	12:11pm Frank In Queens: @Matt, uneventful, just the way I like it.
	12:14pm Matt Clarke: @Frank: Same!
	12:14pm Mike Sin: Halloween around here was pretty cool. Folks just filled the trunks of their cars with candy, left them open, and just let the kids walk around and "self serve." I thought I was going to throw the candy off my porch to the kids like a reverse Mardi Gras or some such.
	12:17pm Matt Clarke: @Mike Sin: Ha! Jawbreakers would take on a whole new meaning if you did that
	12:20pm Marc Francis: I used to love playing this at the bar I DJ'd at. Goddamn pandemic...
	12:23pm Joe B: hey Mike, sounding great
	12:24pm Mike Sin: @Marc -- This show is keeping me digging deep through all my ska and rocksteady comps and record every week. It's cool because there is so much that I "forgot about" in way. It's forcing me to really listen closely!
	12:25pm Frank In Queens: This show is great for making soup to.
	12:25pm Mike Sin: Well all right, Joe B -- Thanks for tuning in!
	12:25pm Candy-O'67: Tuning in, Mike! Gonna be jamming while driving
	12:26pm Matt Clarke: What kinda soup you making, Frankie?
	12:26pm Mike Sin: Hi Candy -- thanks so much!
	12:26pm Frank In Queens: My special concoction, which has no name.
	12:28pm Mike Sin: Aw, come on Frankie, just say it -- it's pasta fagioli!
	12:32pm Matt Clarke: Great mixture today, Mikey! I'd go trick or treating at your house!
	12:33pm Frank In Queens: Olive oil, onion, garlic, carrots, and fennel are required. Then you can use either turnips or potatoes. Crushed red pepper, salt, thyme. Saute it all then add water and boil until soft. Then add about 4 fresh plum tomatoes diced and cook until the start to soften. Then add white beans, and a green; ideally broccoli rabe, but lacinato kale will have to suffice tonight. Add the finishing touch which is a 1/3rd of a cup of polenta and cook for another few minutes. That's it!
	12:33pm phat: Did he just sing about Nebraska? Never would have expected that.
	12:33pm Marc Francis: @ Mike Sin: It's definitely translating into great and interesting sets week to week!
	12:34pm Matt Clarke: Sounds fantastic, Frank
	12:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: <yawn, stretch> What time is it?
	12:35pm Matt Clarke: Haha, hey DJ SOS!
	12:35pm Joe B: yes the houston/wynette version was No. 1 on the country chart in 1967
	12:36pm Frank In Queens: Oh and then freshly ground black pepper on top upon serving.
	12:36pm Joe B: though she re-recorded it with george jones in the 70s. while not a hit chart-wise, that might be the better known version these days
	12:36pm Mike Sin: All right! An original Frankie recipe posted to the playlist! So much value here!
	12:37pm Miles of Middle Texas: Thanks Mike ! We're enjoying the show. And have for the last few weeks. And thanks SOS too
	12:37pm Frank In Queens: Hahaha, come for the ska, stay for the soup.
	12:37pm Mike Sin: Hey there phat! Were you referring to the Ernest Wilson track?
	12:38pm Mike Sin: Thanks, Marc Francis -- trying my best to keep a variety!
	12:39pm Mike Sin: Joe B -- thanks so much for the info. Always appreciate it!
	12:40pm johnk77: rivers of babylon motif
	12:40pm Mike Sin: Hello Ken From Hyde Park -- it's skanking time!
	12:40pm Mike Sin: Hello Miles of Middle Texas -- thanks for being here!
	12:41pm Joe B: further internet sleuthing looks like Bobby Vinton had the biggest pop hit with my elusive dreams in 1970. not sure I recall his version.
	12:41pm Dave the Spazz: Excellent show today
	12:43pm Mike Sin: Hey Joe B -- the only version of My Elusive Dreams I had heard previously was a Charlie Rich version!
	12:43pm Mike Sin: Hi johnk77!
	12:44pm johnk77: peace & respect @ selecter
	12:45pm Mike Sin: Hey Dave the Spazz -- thanks very much, man!
	12:46pm Joe B: Charlie had a huge hit with it in 1975, no. 3 country. I don't know it. Surprised it wasn't bigger on the pop charts considering how big he was the previous 2 years
	12:53pm phat: Yes. I believe it was
	12:54pm phat: Ah yes, that was the cover! Makes more sense
	12:54pm phat: I'm in Lincoln, too! Who is Rick? Yikes.
	12:55pm Matt Clarke: Excellent choices today, Mikey! Thanks to DJ SOS for that spooky tune!
	12:57pm Mike Sin: Thanks to you, Matt!
	12:58pm Mike Sin: Thanks very much for your generous donations Jessica M, Ken H, Frank and Christina C, Rick M, and Nogood Nick!
	12:59pm Mike Sin: Again, thanks everyone for listening!
