	♥ 5:04pm Gina Bacon: Hey, Sem! Glad you're here!
	♥ 5:05pm Julie P.: I hear a little flavor of Mark Knopfler here.
	♥ 5:06pm Gina Bacon: I hear that, Julie!
	5:06pm bigplanetnoise: Hey hey hey!!!
	♥ 5:07pm Gina Bacon: He sounds more like his dad sometimes...his mom is June, so that keeps it interesting!
	♥ 5:07pm Gina Bacon: Hey, bigplanetnoise!
	♥ 5:07pm Julie P.: Hi BPN! Beat you to the shrimp today!
	♥ 5:08pm coelacanth∅: hi Gina and all
	♥ 5:08pm Gina Bacon: Julie got first dibs!
	♥ 5:08pm Brian in UK: Quick hello Gina & music fans.
	♥ 5:08pm Gina Bacon: coelacanthø!
	♥ 5:08pm Gina Bacon: Hello, Brian!!
	♥ 5:09pm Julie P.: Hey coel, Sem, Brian!
	♥ 5:09pm prguitar: Hi Gina, Glad to be here this evening as I watch the blue light fade into darkness over the Hudson River.
	5:09pm bigplanetnoise: Just save the tequila for me, please.
	♥ 5:09pm Julie P.: Hi prguitar!
	♥ 5:10pm coelacanth∅: hi Julie!
	5:10pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Phil!
	♥ 5:10pm Gina Bacon: prguitar!!! I miss that. So glad you're here!
	♥ 5:10pm Julie P.: Tequila is ALL yours, Bob!
	♥ 5:10pm prguitar: Good evening Julie!
	♥ 5:15pm Julie P.: Sun is just starting to set here in Florida.
	♥ 5:15pm prguitar: Hey there Bob! Glad you're here too! Been catching up with the BPN archive this afternoon.. 28 September show.. Fabulous!!
	♥ 5:18pm Gina Bacon: Thank you, Phil! That was a fun one. The archives are such a great resource.
	5:18pm bigplanetnoise: Phil - they all blend together in my mind!!!
	5:18pm Eargasm!: Ola, Gina!!! Bigplanetnoise!! Julie P!!!
	♥ 5:19pm Gina Bacon: Eargasm!!
	♥ 5:20pm prguitar: Nearly dark here Julie.. a few short blocks from the river and a nearly straight shot across the Hudson to Hoboken, Jersey City and WFMU! Guess it gets darker the further North one is..
	♥ 5:21pm Julie P.: PAULLLLLL!!
	5:22pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Paul!
	♥ 5:22pm Gina Bacon: My old stomping ground, Phil! I lived in Hoboken for a bit, before it got really overrun!
	♥ 5:22pm Julie P.: Phil, full dark here is around 6PM at the moment.
	♥ 5:22pm Gina Bacon: The Hudson is near and dear to me for all kinds of reasons!
	♥ 5:23pm Gina Bacon: It always seems extra dark after the time change.
	5:26pm Eargasm!: I hate the early dark.
	♥ 5:27pm Gina Bacon: Me too, Eargasm. Espcially this year.
	♥ 5:27pm vanhooserd: So I saw your FB post about the coveralls & that reminded me. Us old folks need a little help now & then.
	♥ 5:29pm Gina Bacon: vanhooserd! Definitely dating myself with that one!
	♥ 5:29pm Brian in UK: Full darkness at 5pm over here. If the mezcal is doing nothing I could get outside of some.
	♥ 5:29pm prguitar: You're welcome Gina! You can say it's one large continuum Bob, but certain records resonate more or less on particular days. This was the show with "East West"..The Beano album opener "All Your Love", Graham Bond's "Walking Through The Park", and the Sonics opening with a cover of "On the Road Again"..
	♥ 5:31pm Julie P.: Some edgy tracks today, Gina! Really digging it.
	♥ 5:32pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Julie! I'm so glad!
	♥ 5:35pm prguitar: It feels like the middle of the night here at 5pm Julie. Still not used to it! I can't see the river from my windows, but one can always sense the river light in the far West Village.. especially at sunset.. Will always be near and dear to me as well Gina! 💙
	♥ 5:37pm doctorjazz: Here for the much needed Matinee!
	♥ 5:40pm Julie P.: Phil - I agree about the dark. Even though the change is only an hour it feels like more. Sunset seems to go more quickly and you can almost hear the thump when night falls.
	♥ 5:40pm Julie P.: Hey doctorjazz!
	♥ 5:41pm Gina Bacon: doctorjazz! Welcome!
	♥ 5:42pm doctorjazz: Hey, Julie! It's both the hour shift, and just less daylight every day. The two together make a big shift.
	♥ 5:42pm Julie P.: Gina, I remember you've played this before. Great tune!
	♥ 5:43pm Julie P.: And I see that I clicky starred it then!
	♥ 5:43pm prguitar: Hoboken has changed so much Gina.. did you live there when both Pier Platters and Maxwell's were open? I used to go to Pier Platters frequently.. I'm just two blocks north of the Christopher Street PATH train station.
	♥ 5:43pm Gina Bacon: Yes! I love it. Great lyrics.
	♥ 5:44pm Gina Bacon: Yep. My mom lived there from the late 70's until the mid-90's. So many changes!
	♥ 5:45pm Julie P.: Re: being on the road - when I was young we wanted to get out and go places. Now that I am older, I just want to stay home. Funny how that works.
	♥ 5:48pm prguitar: Yes, I'm with you Julie! Nightfall is abrupt as we get closer to the shortest day.. I dread when we turn the clocks back.. this has been a dark year so the hour change seems even more intense than usual too..
	♥ 5:49pm prguitar: Where are you in the UK Brian?
	5:51pm Eargasm!: I think we all feel like that, Julie.
	♥ 5:52pm Gina Bacon: I like being home too, Julie. But I do miss NYC.
	♥ 5:53pm Gina Bacon: I love the strings on this one.
	5:53pm bigplanetnoise: We’ll all get our NY fix this Spring, hopefully...
	♥ 5:54pm Gina Bacon: I hope so, bpn!
	♥ 5:54pm Julie P.: Understandable, Gina. We moved around so much when I was young I don't pine for any particular place. But there are a couple of places in California I wouldn't mind seeing again.
	5:55pm zoelpw: Hey Gina! Hi everybody!
	♥ 5:55pm Julie P.: Love the melancholy in that song.
	♥ 5:56pm Gina Bacon: zoe!!!
	5:56pm Eargasm!: Zoelpw!
	♥ 5:56pm Julie P.: Hey, zoe! And hi, vanhooserd!
	♥ 5:56pm vanhooserd: John Barleycorn is a great book about a drinker. Also Big Sur by Jack Kerouac. Did Ben say that Valley of the Moon is another Jack London novel?
	♥ 5:56pm Doug Schulkind: Hey!
	5:56pm bigplanetnoise: Zoe!
	♥ 5:57pm Gina Bacon: Doug!!!
	♥ 5:57pm Julie P.: Melancholy and reflective, but not too sad.
	5:57pm zoelpw: Hey Julie! Hey Eargasm!
	5:57pm zoelpw: Hey BPN!!!!
	♥ 5:57pm Julie P.: Hiya Doug!
	♥ 5:58pm prguitar: Was thinking today how much more I enjoy staying home as each year passes.. even in NYC.. but I'll certainly come out if Gina and Bob are visiting!
	♥ 5:59pm prguitar: Hey there Doug!!
	♥ 5:59pm Brian in UK: prguitar. I am in Shropshire near the Welsh border, West Midlands.
	6:01pm bigplanetnoise: You better, Phil!
	♥ 6:02pm Gina Bacon: Yay! I look forward to it, Phil!
	♥ 6:02pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - if you are a Kerouac fan, you should come to Florida and visit the Kerouac house. It's a wonderful look inside the author's life, and it's where he wrote The Dharma Bums while living with his mother and his wife.
	♥ 6:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	♥ 6:03pm Gina Bacon: Phillippe!! Howdy!!
	♥ 6:03pm Brian in UK: prguitar, centre of this picture, Munslow. www.google.co.uk...
	♥ 6:03pm Julie P.: Howdy, Phillippe!
	♥ 6:03pm Gina Bacon: I spent some time in the Midlands when I was a teen, Brian!
	♥ 6:03pm prguitar: Oh no worries Gina and Bob! I wouldn't miss either of you for the world!
	♥ 6:04pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Juli P.!
	♥ 6:04pm Julie P.: Did someone say New York road trip?
	♥ 6:05pm Brian in UK: Gina, like most places now you probably would not recognise it.
	♥ 6:06pm Julie P.: That was lovely. The ache in the vocal is palpable.
	♥ 6:07pm Brian in UK: Tried the Dharma Bums about one year ago, could not get started so read Of Mice & Men instead. Steinbeck does not let you down.
	♥ 6:08pm Doug Schulkind: I lived in Carroll Gardens, just a few blocks from the BQE, too. I miss Brooklyn desperately, though I don't think the Brooklyn I miss still exists.
	♥ 6:09pm prguitar: Well said Doug!! It barely exists..
	♥ 6:10pm Julie P.: Okay, I think I just pulled a muscle trying that. Not as limber as I used to be.
	♥ 6:10pm Julie P.: And boom, it's full on dark here.
	♥ 6:11pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Julie!
	♥ 6:11pm Brian in UK: Everywhere now seems to be crane city.
	♥ 6:11pm Gina Bacon: He does not, Brian.
	6:12pm KWilde: I lived in Williamsburg when packs of wild dogs were roaming the streets
	♥ 6:12pm Gina Bacon: Just like here, Brian! It was mostly very rural and lovely back then.
	6:12pm bigplanetnoise: Howdy, Sir Doug!
	♥ 6:13pm Gina Bacon: KWilde! It was pretty bombed out when I lived there, too.
	6:13pm KWilde: 1986-1999
	♥ 6:14pm Gina Bacon: 1983-1996!
	♥ 6:14pm Brian in UK: Listening to people is a dying art.
	♥ 6:14pm Julie P.: Brian, we're in the middle of a major interstate revamp here and there are new hideously expensive apartments going up as well. It's far removed from the somewhat sleepy city it was before the Mouse moved in.
	♥ 6:17pm Doug Schulkind: Preach, Brother Ben, preach.
	♥ 6:18pm vanhooserd: Julie: Thanks, I didn't know about that. Another place to go when we can hit the road again.
	♥ 6:19pm coelacanth∅: nixon just got caught. he was far from as bad as almost every president we've had starting with reagan
	♥ 6:21pm vanhooserd: Brian in the UK: Big Sur is about Kerouac drying out in the wilds of Big Sur. Horror ensues.
	♥ 6:21pm prguitar: Nearly everywhere is changing exponentially! I've been in Manhattan since 1974, after graduating Pratt Institute in Bed Stuy Brooklyn, save for less than two years (1989-1991) in the San Francisco Bay Area. Hard to know where to go and not be irritated by it all..
	♥ 6:22pm Doug Schulkind: Howdy, bigplanetnoise! prguitar! Julie P! Dear Gina B!
	♥ 6:22pm Brian in UK: From a distance the USA seems generally right wing. My thinking is that when people come to a new country they want to blend in so make no waves and that leans to the right. When people commented that Bernie Sanders was a commie for wanting healthcare for all, I felt very despondent for your great country. Apologies if this offends.
	♥ 6:22pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - it's really tiny, but so cool to see where he lived and created. They even have a manuscript on display that he typed on a continuous roll of paper. They also have a residency program for writers where the person lives in the house for a few months.
	♥ 6:25pm Julie P.: Brian - that's partly because the right wingers seem to be noisier more frequently. The left is a little more focused on keeping an even keel unless they get really riled up.
	♥ 6:26pm Julie P.: And no offense taken here.
	♥ 6:26pm Doug Schulkind: @prguitar I moved to Pittsburgh in 2010. I don't have the memory of the old 'Burgh in my bones, so it all seems just the way it is. Maybe the trick is to keep moving.
	♥ 6:27pm Brian in UK: vanhooserd, Will work on Kerouac. I really wished that Ken Kesey had not got on the bus and kept writing, he could have been one of the best.
	6:27pm Kaston: great show yall! love the Becky Warren choice. love that song "Swan Dive" too! and the fuck you to the gop and the neo libs :)
	♥ 6:27pm vanhooserd: We've been thinking of leaving Nashville, but where to go? Currently want to stay close, but growth & high home prices have spread & the thought of living in such (as Brian says) Right Wing territory gives us pause. At least Nashville is a Blue spot.
	♥ 6:28pm vanhooserd: David Duke Boogie.
	♥ 6:29pm Gina Bacon: Hey, Kaston! Hahaha! Yes! People may remember that Kaston was my guest a few weeks ago...he's got a great album called "Small Minded People In Power". It's in my archive!
	6:29pm bigplanetnoise: Everyone I know seems to be rethinking Tennessee right now. Bone-headed pandemic-response is the accelerator, I’m sure.
	♥ 6:29pm Brian in UK: Reading It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis (first American Nobel Lit prize winner). Written in 1935, prescient.
	♥ 6:30pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - same here in Orlando/Winter Park. I'd personally rather live in a Blue spot.
	♥ 6:30pm prguitar: Brian, you're pretty far north relative to NYC.. really on line with eastern Canada.. suppose that is why it's darker even earlier.. Imagine it's still greener than around here though.
	♥ 6:31pm coelacanth∅: nah Brian an outsider observation is a lot more likely to be accurate -only, americans have been trained to be insecure and complacent -and mostly refuse to acknowledge that they're wrong, that their country is wrong. that their country is run by greedy, selfish terrorists. it's easier and safer to defend it than to try to change it. you're right -it's a very "right-wing" situation, in general. even "left-wingers" are usually "right of center". now.
	♥ 6:31pm Julie P.: Hi Kaston! Welcome back!
	♥ 6:31pm Brian in UK: prguitar, Shropshire is one of those counties where nothing much happens, that suits me.
	6:33pm Kaston: hey Gina! Thanks for the love for "Short-SIghted People In Power"! really love what you do on the show!!
	♥ 6:34pm prguitar: Yah Doug.. very true, may be the plan to keep on moving! Though I have much more resistance to it in my old age.. I think the last time we crossed paths was when I was still working at Rudy's Music on 48th Street..
	♥ 6:34pm Brian in UK: This may be naive but in my democracy elections there should be an option to vote for no candidate.
	♥ 6:35pm Gina Bacon: Here's Ben's Bandcamp: bendelacour.bandcamp.com And his website: www.bendelacour.com
	♥ 6:35pm Gina Bacon: Thank you so much, Kaston! I feel pretty lucky to be able to.
	♥ 6:36pm Julie P.: coel, part of that is the backlash the left and people like Bernie have been getting for wanting things like income equality and such. Like it's a bad thing that a rising tide lifts all boats. Selfishness has become the order of the day. Personally I make no apologies for getting an education that I worked for and wanting others to have what they need.
	♥ 6:38pm Julie P.: Lovely song, Ben! Enjoyed them all, and the background entertainment as well!
	♥ 6:39pm Brian in UK: Democracy: equality of rights in society or did I miss something. Stay positive.
	♥ 6:39pm WR: Hi Gina and drummer streamers, have been too busy to comment but have been enjoying the music and the talk. Thank you to Ben and his daughter.
	♥ 6:40pm Brian in UK: Thanks Ben, like your voice.
	♥ 6:41pm Julie P.: prguitar, I think moving around makes you realize that things aren't the same everywhere, even inside the same state. It gives perspective.
	♥ 6:41pm Gina Bacon: Hi WR! Nice to know you're out there!
	♥ 6:42pm Julie P.: Brian - that was the idea, at least at one time.
	♥ 6:42pm coelacanth∅: right on Julie. it's crazy though! people are hurting -the "right" just as much, and somehow still have never realised that the people on the hill don't care about them. i wonder had bad off people have to get before they start considering another approach...
	♥ 6:43pm Julie P.: And I will never give up hope or stop voting for positive change.
	♥ 6:43pm Gina Bacon: Me too, Julie! we have to.
	♥ 6:44pm coelacanth∅: hear hear Julie. i guess i'm an optimist at heart as well. otherwise i would've called it quits many years ago.
	♥ 6:45pm Brian in UK: I am a glass half full type but I forgot where I left it.
	♥ 6:45pm Gina Bacon: But....that doesn't mean we can't acknowledge how badly things suck sometimes! Hahaha
	♥ 6:45pm Julie P.: coel - I think education is an important tool; if people don't learn perspective and how to think for themselves, they will latch onto the first thing that sounds good or tells them how to think so they don't have to.
	♥ 6:46pm Julie P.: Brian - ba dump bump, tiss!
	♥ 6:46pm Gina Bacon: Yes, Julie! That's been sorely lacking.
	♥ 6:46pm Brian in UK: Is this thing on?
	♥ 6:47pm vanhooserd: On the other hand I'm from this part of the world (Gallatin, TN) and to my way of thinking I belong as much or more than the idiots.
	♥ 6:47pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Brian! I often misplace my glass, too.
	♥ 6:48pm Julie P.: coel - like John Lewis said, you've got to get in good trouble.
	♥ 6:49pm Brian in UK: Gina, great show. Wear that mask.
	♥ 6:49pm Julie P.: "Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."
	♥ 6:50pm coelacanth∅: Brian here, i found it. 'hope you don't mind the dog's been drinking from it.
	♥ 6:50pm Julie P.: My mother was a bit of a noisemaker, and an early SJW before there was such a thing. I come by it honestly.
	♥ 6:50pm Snayle: Good evening Gina, Jools, coel, BPN, vanhooserd, Brian in UK, prg & all Matinee lovers ! Happy Post Turkey Matinee ! Been listening in the car..... Ben is way cool ! Loved the convo ... catching up on chat here... n Matt has a bit of a Joe Ely tone ...
	♥ 6:51pm Julie P.: Snayle! Missed ya!
	♥ 6:51pm prguitar: It sounds good to me as well Brian.. I've always had an affinity for the UK.. Enjoyed going north to Scotland!
	6:51pm Eargasm!: Snayle!!!!
	♥ 6:52pm Brian in UK: coelacanth∅, thanks mate, he can finish it.
	♥ 6:52pm Snayle: Joools!!! Eargasm!!! Been listening while drivin' home from woik for the past hour....
	♥ 6:52pm coelacanth∅: hey Snayle!
	6:53pm bigplanetnoise: Hey hey Snayle!

	♥ 6:55pm Gina Bacon: Thank you, Julie!
	♥ 6:55pm Gina Bacon: Snayle!!!
	♥ 6:56pm Brian in UK: Finish the day with a murder ballad.
	♥ 6:57pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Brian!
	♥ 6:58pm Julie P.: An Appalachian folk dystopia, as such.
	♥ 6:59pm Gina Bacon: Thanks to Ben de la Cour for being my guest today, and to all of you for being here today!! Please stay safe, and sane, and I hope to see oy back here next week!! My guest will be Stuffy Shmitt!
	♥ 6:59pm Julie P.: And love the swerve to traditional bluegrass sound!
	♥ 6:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Gina! Thanks Ben de la Cour! take care
	♥ 6:59pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Julie! I love this stuff.
	♥ 7:00pm Julie P.: Shhhh - banjo in the house!
	♥ 7:00pm Snayle: Thanks for the great show as always, Gina - wish I could figure out how to chat n drive ..... miss being 'hear' - stay safe & hopefully happier days ahead for us all ! Sturgill makes a great icing to this cake... <3

	♥ 5:15pm prguitar: Hey there Bob! Glad you're here too! Been catching up with the BPN archive this afternoon.. 28 September show.. Fabulous!!
	♥ 5:18pm Gina Bacon: Thank you, Phil! That was a fun one. The archives are such a great resource.
	5:18pm bigplanetnoise: Phil - they all blend together in my mind!!!
	5:18pm Eargasm!: Ola, Gina!!! Bigplanetnoise!! Julie P!!!
	♥ 5:19pm Gina Bacon: Eargasm!!
	♥ 5:20pm prguitar: Nearly dark here Julie.. a few short blocks from the river and a nearly straight shot across the Hudson to Hoboken, Jersey City and WFMU! Guess it gets darker the further North one is..
	♥ 5:21pm Julie P.: PAULLLLLL!!
	5:22pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Paul!
	♥ 5:22pm Gina Bacon: My old stomping ground, Phil! I lived in Hoboken for a bit, before it got really overrun!
	♥ 5:22pm Julie P.: Phil, full dark here is around 6PM at the moment.
	♥ 5:22pm Gina Bacon: The Hudson is near and dear to me for all kinds of reasons!
	♥ 5:23pm Gina Bacon: It always seems extra dark after the time change.
	5:26pm Eargasm!: I hate the early dark.
	♥ 5:27pm Gina Bacon: Me too, Eargasm. Espcially this year.
	♥ 5:27pm vanhooserd: So I saw your FB post about the coveralls & that reminded me. Us old folks need a little help now & then.
	♥ 5:29pm Gina Bacon: vanhooserd! Definitely dating myself with that one!
	♥ 5:29pm Brian in UK: Full darkness at 5pm over here. If the mezcal is doing nothing I could get outside of some.
	♥ 5:29pm prguitar: You're welcome Gina! You can say it's one large continuum Bob, but certain records resonate more or less on particular days. This was the show with "East West"..The Beano album opener "All Your Love", Graham Bond's "Walking Through The Park", and the Sonics opening with a cover of "On the Road Again"..
	♥ 5:31pm Julie P.: Some edgy tracks today, Gina! Really digging it.
	♥ 5:32pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Julie! I'm so glad!
	♥ 5:35pm prguitar: It feels like the middle of the night here at 5pm Julie. Still not used to it! I can't see the river from my windows, but one can always sense the river light in the far West Village.. especially at sunset.. Will always be near and dear to me as well Gina! 💙
	♥ 5:37pm doctorjazz: Here for the much needed Matinee!
	♥ 5:40pm Julie P.: Phil - I agree about the dark. Even though the change is only an hour it feels like more. Sunset seems to go more quickly and you can almost hear the thump when night falls.
	♥ 5:40pm Julie P.: Hey doctorjazz!
	♥ 5:41pm Gina Bacon: doctorjazz! Welcome!
	♥ 5:42pm doctorjazz: Hey, Julie! It's both the hour shift, and just less daylight every day. The two together make a big shift.
	♥ 5:42pm Julie P.: Gina, I remember you've played this before. Great tune!
	♥ 5:43pm Julie P.: And I see that I clicky starred it then!
	♥ 5:43pm prguitar: Hoboken has changed so much Gina.. did you live there when both Pier Platters and Maxwell's were open? I used to go to Pier Platters frequently.. I'm just two blocks north of the Christopher Street PATH train station.
	♥ 5:43pm Gina Bacon: Yes! I love it. Great lyrics.
	♥ 5:44pm Gina Bacon: Yep. My mom lived there from the late 70's until the mid-90's. So many changes!
	♥ 5:45pm Julie P.: Re: being on the road - when I was young we wanted to get out and go places. Now that I am older, I just want to stay home. Funny how that works.
	♥ 5:48pm prguitar: Yes, I'm with you Julie! Nightfall is abrupt as we get closer to the shortest day.. I dread when we turn the clocks back.. this has been a dark year so the hour change seems even more intense than usual too..
	♥ 5:49pm prguitar: Where are you in the UK Brian?
	5:51pm Eargasm!: I think we all feel like that, Julie.
	♥ 5:52pm Gina Bacon: I like being home too, Julie. But I do miss NYC.
	♥ 5:53pm Gina Bacon: I love the strings on this one.
	5:53pm bigplanetnoise: We’ll all get our NY fix this Spring, hopefully...
	♥ 5:54pm Gina Bacon: I hope so, bpn!
	♥ 5:54pm Julie P.: Understandable, Gina. We moved around so much when I was young I don't pine for any particular place. But there are a couple of places in California I wouldn't mind seeing again.
	5:55pm zoelpw: Hey Gina! Hi everybody!
	♥ 5:55pm Julie P.: Love the melancholy in that song.
	♥ 5:56pm Gina Bacon: zoe!!!
	5:56pm Eargasm!: Zoelpw!
	♥ 5:56pm Julie P.: Hey, zoe! And hi, vanhooserd!
	♥ 5:56pm vanhooserd: John Barleycorn is a great book about a drinker. Also Big Sur by Jack Kerouac. Did Ben say that Valley of the Moon is another Jack London novel?
	♥ 5:56pm Doug Schulkind: Hey!
	5:56pm bigplanetnoise: Zoe!
	♥ 5:57pm Gina Bacon: Doug!!!
	♥ 5:57pm Julie P.: Melancholy and reflective, but not too sad.
	5:57pm zoelpw: Hey Julie! Hey Eargasm!
	5:57pm zoelpw: Hey BPN!!!!
	♥ 5:57pm Julie P.: Hiya Doug!
	♥ 5:58pm prguitar: Was thinking today how much more I enjoy staying home as each year passes.. even in NYC.. but I'll certainly come out if Gina and Bob are visiting!
	♥ 5:59pm prguitar: Hey there Doug!!
	♥ 5:59pm Brian in UK: prguitar. I am in Shropshire near the Welsh border, West Midlands.
	6:01pm bigplanetnoise: You better, Phil!
	♥ 6:02pm Gina Bacon: Yay! I look forward to it, Phil!
	♥ 6:02pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - if you are a Kerouac fan, you should come to Florida and visit the Kerouac house. It's a wonderful look inside the author's life, and it's where he wrote The Dharma Bums while living with his mother and his wife.
	♥ 6:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	♥ 6:03pm Gina Bacon: Phillippe!! Howdy!!
	♥ 6:03pm Brian in UK: prguitar, centre of this picture, Munslow. www.google.co.uk...
	♥ 6:03pm Julie P.: Howdy, Phillippe!
	♥ 6:03pm Gina Bacon: I spent some time in the Midlands when I was a teen, Brian!
	♥ 6:03pm prguitar: Oh no worries Gina and Bob! I wouldn't miss either of you for the world!
	♥ 6:04pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Juli P.!
	♥ 6:04pm Julie P.: Did someone say New York road trip?
	♥ 6:05pm Brian in UK: Gina, like most places now you probably would not recognise it.
	♥ 6:06pm Julie P.: That was lovely. The ache in the vocal is palpable.
	♥ 6:07pm Brian in UK: Tried the Dharma Bums about one year ago, could not get started so read Of Mice & Men instead. Steinbeck does not let you down.
	♥ 6:08pm Doug Schulkind: I lived in Carroll Gardens, just a few blocks from the BQE, too. I miss Brooklyn desperately, though I don't think the Brooklyn I miss still exists.
	♥ 6:09pm prguitar: Well said Doug!! It barely exists..
	♥ 6:10pm Julie P.: Okay, I think I just pulled a muscle trying that. Not as limber as I used to be.
	♥ 6:10pm Julie P.: And boom, it's full on dark here.
	♥ 6:11pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Julie!
	♥ 6:11pm Brian in UK: Everywhere now seems to be crane city.
	♥ 6:11pm Gina Bacon: He does not, Brian.
	6:12pm KWilde: I lived in Williamsburg when packs of wild dogs were roaming the streets
	♥ 6:12pm Gina Bacon: Just like here, Brian! It was mostly very rural and lovely back then.
	6:12pm bigplanetnoise: Howdy, Sir Doug!
	♥ 6:13pm Gina Bacon: KWilde! It was pretty bombed out when I lived there, too.
	6:13pm KWilde: 1986-1999
	♥ 6:14pm Gina Bacon: 1983-1996!
	♥ 6:14pm Brian in UK: Listening to people is a dying art.
	♥ 6:14pm Julie P.: Brian, we're in the middle of a major interstate revamp here and there are new hideously expensive apartments going up as well. It's far removed from the somewhat sleepy city it was before the Mouse moved in.
	♥ 6:17pm Doug Schulkind: Preach, Brother Ben, preach.
	♥ 6:18pm vanhooserd: Julie: Thanks, I didn't know about that. Another place to go when we can hit the road again.
	♥ 6:19pm coelacanth∅: nixon just got caught. he was far from as bad as almost every president we've had starting with reagan
	♥ 6:21pm vanhooserd: Brian in the UK: Big Sur is about Kerouac drying out in the wilds of Big Sur. Horror ensues.
	♥ 6:21pm prguitar: Nearly everywhere is changing exponentially! I've been in Manhattan since 1974, after graduating Pratt Institute in Bed Stuy Brooklyn, save for less than two years (1989-1991) in the San Francisco Bay Area. Hard to know where to go and not be irritated by it all..
	♥ 6:22pm Doug Schulkind: Howdy, bigplanetnoise! prguitar! Julie P! Dear Gina B!
	♥ 6:22pm Brian in UK: From a distance the USA seems generally right wing. My thinking is that when people come to a new country they want to blend in so make no waves and that leans to the right. When people commented that Bernie Sanders was a commie for wanting healthcare for all, I felt very despondent for your great country. Apologies if this offends.
	♥ 6:22pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - it's really tiny, but so cool to see where he lived and created. They even have a manuscript on display that he typed on a continuous roll of paper. They also have a residency program for writers where the person lives in the house for a few months.
	♥ 6:25pm Julie P.: Brian - that's partly because the right wingers seem to be noisier more frequently. The left is a little more focused on keeping an even keel unless they get really riled up.
	♥ 6:26pm Julie P.: And no offense taken here.
	♥ 6:26pm Doug Schulkind: @prguitar I moved to Pittsburgh in 2010. I don't have the memory of the old 'Burgh in my bones, so it all seems just the way it is. Maybe the trick is to keep moving.
	♥ 6:27pm Brian in UK: vanhooserd, Will work on Kerouac. I really wished that Ken Kesey had not got on the bus and kept writing, he could have been one of the best.
	6:27pm Kaston: great show yall! love the Becky Warren choice. love that song "Swan Dive" too! and the fuck you to the gop and the neo libs :)
	♥ 6:27pm vanhooserd: We've been thinking of leaving Nashville, but where to go? Currently want to stay close, but growth & high home prices have spread & the thought of living in such (as Brian says) Right Wing territory gives us pause. At least Nashville is a Blue spot.
	♥ 6:28pm vanhooserd: David Duke Boogie.
	♥ 6:29pm Gina Bacon: Hey, Kaston! Hahaha! Yes! People may remember that Kaston was my guest a few weeks ago...he's got a great album called "Small Minded People In Power". It's in my archive!
	6:29pm bigplanetnoise: Everyone I know seems to be rethinking Tennessee right now. Bone-headed pandemic-response is the accelerator, I’m sure.
	♥ 6:29pm Brian in UK: Reading It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis (first American Nobel Lit prize winner). Written in 1935, prescient.
	♥ 6:30pm Julie P.: vanhooserd - same here in Orlando/Winter Park. I'd personally rather live in a Blue spot.
	♥ 6:30pm prguitar: Brian, you're pretty far north relative to NYC.. really on line with eastern Canada.. suppose that is why it's darker even earlier.. Imagine it's still greener than around here though.
	♥ 6:31pm coelacanth∅: nah Brian an outsider observation is a lot more likely to be accurate -only, americans have been trained to be insecure and complacent -and mostly refuse to acknowledge that they're wrong, that their country is wrong. that their country is run by greedy, selfish terrorists. it's easier and safer to defend it than to try to change it. you're right -it's a very "right-wing" situation, in general. even "left-wingers" are usually "right of center". now.
	♥ 6:31pm Julie P.: Hi Kaston! Welcome back!
	♥ 6:31pm Brian in UK: prguitar, Shropshire is one of those counties where nothing much happens, that suits me.
	6:33pm Kaston: hey Gina! Thanks for the love for "Short-SIghted People In Power"! really love what you do on the show!!
	♥ 6:34pm prguitar: Yah Doug.. very true, may be the plan to keep on moving! Though I have much more resistance to it in my old age.. I think the last time we crossed paths was when I was still working at Rudy's Music on 48th Street..
	♥ 6:34pm Brian in UK: This may be naive but in my democracy elections there should be an option to vote for no candidate.
	♥ 6:35pm Gina Bacon: Here's Ben's Bandcamp: bendelacour.bandcamp.com And his website: www.bendelacour.com
	♥ 6:35pm Gina Bacon: Thank you so much, Kaston! I feel pretty lucky to be able to.
	♥ 6:36pm Julie P.: coel, part of that is the backlash the left and people like Bernie have been getting for wanting things like income equality and such. Like it's a bad thing that a rising tide lifts all boats. Selfishness has become the order of the day. Personally I make no apologies for getting an education that I worked for and wanting others to have what they need.
	♥ 6:38pm Julie P.: Lovely song, Ben! Enjoyed them all, and the background entertainment as well!
	♥ 6:39pm Brian in UK: Democracy: equality of rights in society or did I miss something. Stay positive.
	♥ 6:39pm WR: Hi Gina and drummer streamers, have been too busy to comment but have been enjoying the music and the talk. Thank you to Ben and his daughter.
	♥ 6:40pm Brian in UK: Thanks Ben, like your voice.
	♥ 6:41pm Julie P.: prguitar, I think moving around makes you realize that things aren't the same everywhere, even inside the same state. It gives perspective.
	♥ 6:41pm Gina Bacon: Hi WR! Nice to know you're out there!
	♥ 6:42pm Julie P.: Brian - that was the idea, at least at one time.
	♥ 6:42pm coelacanth∅: right on Julie. it's crazy though! people are hurting -the "right" just as much, and somehow still have never realised that the people on the hill don't care about them. i wonder had bad off people have to get before they start considering another approach...
	♥ 6:43pm Julie P.: And I will never give up hope or stop voting for positive change.
	♥ 6:43pm Gina Bacon: Me too, Julie! we have to.
	♥ 6:44pm coelacanth∅: hear hear Julie. i guess i'm an optimist at heart as well. otherwise i would've called it quits many years ago.
	♥ 6:45pm Brian in UK: I am a glass half full type but I forgot where I left it.
	♥ 6:45pm Gina Bacon: But....that doesn't mean we can't acknowledge how badly things suck sometimes! Hahaha
	♥ 6:45pm Julie P.: coel - I think education is an important tool; if people don't learn perspective and how to think for themselves, they will latch onto the first thing that sounds good or tells them how to think so they don't have to.
	♥ 6:46pm Julie P.: Brian - ba dump bump, tiss!
	♥ 6:46pm Gina Bacon: Yes, Julie! That's been sorely lacking.
	♥ 6:46pm Brian in UK: Is this thing on?
	♥ 6:47pm vanhooserd: On the other hand I'm from this part of the world (Gallatin, TN) and to my way of thinking I belong as much or more than the idiots.
	♥ 6:47pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Brian! I often misplace my glass, too.
	♥ 6:48pm Julie P.: coel - like John Lewis said, you've got to get in good trouble.
	♥ 6:49pm Brian in UK: Gina, great show. Wear that mask.
	♥ 6:49pm Julie P.: "Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."
	♥ 6:50pm coelacanth∅: Brian here, i found it. 'hope you don't mind the dog's been drinking from it.
	♥ 6:50pm Julie P.: My mother was a bit of a noisemaker, and an early SJW before there was such a thing. I come by it honestly.
	♥ 6:50pm Snayle: Good evening Gina, Jools, coel, BPN, vanhooserd, Brian in UK, prg & all Matinee lovers ! Happy Post Turkey Matinee ! Been listening in the car..... Ben is way cool ! Loved the convo ... catching up on chat here... n Matt has a bit of a Joe Ely tone ...

	♥ 6:56pm Brian in UK: Finish the day with a murder ballad.
	♥ 6:57pm Gina Bacon: Hahaha Brian!
	♥ 6:58pm Julie P.: An Appalachian folk dystopia, as such.
	♥ 6:59pm Gina Bacon: Thanks to Ben de la Cour for being my guest today, and to all of you for being here today!! Please stay safe, and sane, and I hope to see oy back here next week!! My guest will be Stuffy Shmitt!
	♥ 6:59pm Julie P.: And love the swerve to traditional bluegrass sound!

	♥ 6:59pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Julie! I love this stuff.
	♥ 7:00pm Julie P.: Shhhh - banjo in the house!

	♥ 7:00pm prguitar: Thanks Gina for all of the great music this early evening, and for introducing me to Ben de la Cour in interview and music as well!
