	6:02pm K8: Oh my....starting out with Bjork! It makes the dark air out here sparkle...thank you! And hello, Therese! And Therese fans!
	6:02pm Ryansterlingvirtue: Yay Bjork!
	6:03pm Therese: Hello!
	6:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Björk! (Sent from my umlaut keyboard. Haha!)
	6:03pm chresti: Hello Therese and party! Getting ready for an early bedtime while my ears are here having fun.
	6:04pm northguineahills: @Ryansterlingvirtue; i think i have 5 remixes of this track alone....
	6:06pm mkostek: Cha cha cha!
	6:06pm Pauly from Clifton: Good evening, Therese, Crew, fellow listeners!
	6:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Byerk - GenX Scorpio Sister. The postmodern wonderkind (along with Beck). Interesting it sounds a little retrofuturist now.
	6:08pm P-90: Now I feel inadequate (don’t have an umlaut keyboard with me at all times)
	6:08pm northguineahills: ok, now Therese is just hitting me in feefees....
	6:08pm listener 126464: Hi Therese, everyone.
	6:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...thot that was Lonnie Holley!...
	6:10pm Aitch: Release them
	6:10pm Ryansterlingvirtue: @northuiguineahill. on vinyl? CD?
	6:11pm Therese: Rev Rabbit, funny that you mention Beck...
	6:12pm northguineahills: My Mexican friends never use diacritics, so neither do I. Then, there's also in 1998 the Deutsch gov't officially did away w/ them (w/ alternative spellings, but unofficially you'll still see them). @Ryansterlingvirtue: Yes, both, and I'm selling it all. (the last 8 months sucked).
	6:13pm northguineahills: The Bats! and now a fave REM!
	6:13pm Aitch: LRP my fave of the REM records
	6:13pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Therese! I love this era of REM. ❤️
	6:14pm Therese: Life's Rich Pageant is one of my faves as well!
	6:15pm listener 126464: Think they played Radio City Music Hall around then
	6:15pm Jett: Hello my great friend @Therese Glad to be treated to be listening to your telecast. I hope all is well over there. So far, I'm okay.
	6:15pm adamdoesit: Hello from early supperland, Therese and everyone. Thanks for something old (REM), something new (Bats).
	6:16pm P-90: If the Deutsche government says it’s cool to go umlaut-free, then I feel a little better...
	6:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: @northguineahills. Sorry to hear that. Are you selling your vinyl collection? Do you live in the WFMU footprint?
	6:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Stipe intelligible words but deffo still down with REM LRP period.
	6:18pm BH: this is probably the best choice for a DCFC cover of TLC. Some other TLC songs might be a little too awkward for Ben Gibbard.
	6:19pm slugluv1313: good evening, Therese and Skeletons and Everyone! nothing equals the original from TLC! but totally enjoying Death Cab for Cutie's take on "Waterfalls" :)
	6:20pm Therese: @BH- it's probably best that he didn't attempt Left Eye's rap, huh?
	6:20pm northguineahills: @Ryansterlingvirtue:nein, I moved down to FL, for a startup that went tits up. I got ill, and am now in my car. I have a friend selling my rekkids via his account. I used to dj for a living, aI traveled the east coast and Mexico. My motto was, all genres, all geographies, all ethnicities, all temporal periods.
	6:21pm northguineahills: I've had TLC playing in my brain lately, as I think my Left Eye's retina got slightly dislodged. (pun intended)
	6:22pm northguineahills: (I never knew DCfC covered TLC)
	6:22pm BH: there is a "no rap" version of Waterfalls, which exists for the radio stations which only play "Groove is in the Heart" without the Q-Tip verses
	6:22pm Jett: You're a regular riot. @Therese LOL.
	6:23pm phat: I missed REM because I was laying down (for a friend) a bassline for a cover of Begin the Begin from the same album. Funny.
	6:23pm slugluv1313: @BH -- oh ick! Lisa Left Eye's rap totally makes Waterfalls!
	6:24pm zivilars: Hey Therese, thanks for the show – unfortunately don't get the chance to listen live very often at this time, but your sets are exquisite!
	6:24pm pp: neat that Colbert is a big fan of Mountain Goats
	6:24pm wendy del formaggio: Fuck yeah! What The Mountain Goats said in the chorus!
	6:25pm Stevel: I'll sing along!
	6:26pm chresti: This year was a killer for sure!
	6:27pm listener 126464: I was gonna say Craig Finn, too
	6:30pm greenpoint: EI = experimental intermix?
	6:31pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Good evening Thérèse. Love Your Show!
	6:31pm Stevel: Does he already have binoculars?
	6:31pm adampsyche: HI ADAMDOESIT, going to miss that foot of snow up here huh ;)
	6:32pm Barbie: Binoculars for dad.
	6:32pm listener 126464: pajamagram
	6:32pm Jett: A pair of binoculars for Dad, some great books for Mama.
	6:32pm wendy del formaggio: Therese, buy you parents a cheese box from Jasper Hill. They’ll ship it. https://www.jasperhillfarm.com/gifts
	6:33pm Stevel: Get them both a gift certificate to a good local BBQ place. Enough so they can order something every week or two.
	6:33pm johnzo: you should get them a couple of baby monitors or walkie talkies so they can comment to each other about the show they're both watching in different rooms
	6:33pm JoyJoy: Get them a nice bird feeder and Audubon guidebook.
	6:33pm Therese: Binoculars might be a good idea, but he thinks he's stealthy...
	6:33pm listener 126464: You could name a star after them.
	6:34pm Jett: @Barbie We had the same thought!
	6:35pm chresti: Mom: yarn, patterns for scarves Dad: a massaging pad for the chair, binoculars
	6:35pm phat: This new Sun Ra Arkestra is good. It's encouraging.
	6:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: }}}}}}}=====> !
	6:36pm DonJuanTijuana: Hi Therese! Sounds excellent as usual for a Sunday evening!!! Keep Rockin It!!!
	6:36pm Stevel: Some sort of periscope for dad...
	6:36pm listener 126464: WFMU Gift Concierge
	6:36pm Therese: @johnzo- they have smartphones, so they can just text each other.
	6:37pm Therese: JoyJoy- that's a good idea!
	6:37pm ?: Thanks for playing Sun Ra.. NYE Philly ❤️
	6:37pm chresti: Maybe a pith helmet to wear while neighborhood watching?
	6:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I want better binoculars before the Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction in a week. Telescope even.
	6:38pm Franco Twinkie: Dad: An anvil and some chop sticks. Mom: An assault rifle and a chemistry set.
	6:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & a baby's arm holding an apple.
	6:39pm chresti: Joyjoy has a good suggestion, unusual wind chimes are nice.
	6:39pm Therese: @Franco- the last thing I need is for my parents to Break Bad.
	6:40pm northguineahills: @sluggluv: I'm not going to lie, I had crush on Left Eye. (which is totally out of left fied (can't stop w/ the puns), as I usually don't like R&B after the early 80s.
	6:41pm chresti: WFMU sweatshirts- his and hers.
	6:41pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, how about his and hers bath mits?
	6:41pm northguineahills: If you can go one wfmu show w/o Sun Ra track/show, punch your card (never such a thing as too much Sun Ra)
	6:42pm northguineahills: Soul Jazz keeps on killing it!
	6:42pm Therese: @NGH- Left Eye was amazing. If you haven't seen the TLC episode of "Behind the Music," please seek it out!
	6:43pm Jett: ...but does that one count as Sun Ra???
	6:44pm northguineahills: @Therese: mierde, didn't know there was one! @Jett: if Marshall Allen is involved, yes!
	6:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's in his - orbit...
	6:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: SYD
	6:46pm Jett: oh yeah! Interstellar Overdrive!
	6:46pm wendy del formaggio: Ooh ooh! Interstellar overdrive! Is this in honor of the meteors
	6:46pm wendy del formaggio: (I forgot the “?”)
	6:46pm Aitch: Piper probably the album I've played the most this year.
	6:46pm steveo: is this jazz? loving the show
	6:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Are we all playing along?
	6:48pm Jett: Great point.@northguineahills
	6:48pm Therese: @Wendy- this whole set is kind of an oblique homage to the meteors
	6:48pm Roberto: Flashback to sophomore year in college and listening to Relics on cassette over and over.
	6:49pm Jett: Piper is a big fave lp of mine.
	6:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Top20 Albums Ever
	6:49pm wendy del formaggio: @Therese: Ah, of course! Excellent.
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: most Psychedelic album ever
	6:52pm Aitch: You’re the left side, he’s the right side Oh, no!
	6:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - see they even presaged TLC.
	6:54pm Frege's Nightmare: gotta love early floyd
	6:54pm listener 126464: So, that wasn't Uncle Floyd?
	6:58pm Stevel: Thanks for everything, Therese! I always enjoy your show. Thanks, everyone!
	7:04pm Fox: AAAAH. That's all I've been doing since the lockdown started, even though I'm slow motion being evicted. I've just rearranged and perfected my whole apartment.
	7:05pm northguineahills: I had the same issue w/ my studio in my old BK apartment....
	7:06pm Therese: Oh no, @Fox! That suuuuuucccckkks!
	7:08pm Franco Twinkie: Therese, can't you wait until you've had a good night sleep?
	7:10pm Therese: @Franco- No! Gotta get the bee out of my bonnet!
	7:12pm Scott67: G'day Therese, dipping my first toe in here today, but can tell I will be here more often:-)
	7:15pm Therese: Welcome, @Scott67!
	7:15pm Fox: Therese - Yeah, but it's making me do all the stuff I was too sick to do to the apartment for years. Just yesterday, I finally put up the curtains I got from the warehouse sale! I'm making this place FLY before I have to leave. It's the principle. And besides, evictions are taking forever! I just can't find anywhere I can afford to move to, is the problem.
	7:15pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, sounds like you're on a mission. You'll probably be glad in the morning when you're sitting there in your pajamas drinking coffee and getting right to work.
	7:15pm northguineahills: @Fox: welcome to the club: landlord lost his lease on his business and moved everything into the house. (at least it's warmer in FL).
	7:16pm Therese: @Fox- those curtains were a FIND!
	7:17pm Dave Miss: Good show from a 1bdr
	7:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bust with the checks McConnell you freak.
	7:18pm Fox: northguineahills: My landlord won't fix the mold in my building that I now know has been making me super sick since I moved here. I went on rent strike, so he's evicting me instead of fixing it. This place is the longest I've ever lived anywhere in my entire life. Go figure.
	7:23pm northguineahills: @Fox: reminds me of my last Brooklyn landlord. Wouldn't live a hand for anything, so, we took care of the mice problem, and did home repair ourselves. Yet, our rent went up $1000 in two years, even though it was a POS where the commons was never cleaned (so, we did). There might me a NYC Health Code violation for mold (not sure about NJS), I vaguely remember a friend getting a landlord to redo his basement apt after a flooding.
	7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Rent Is Too Damn High - & wages are too low ...& well - most everything...
	7:28pm listener 126464: random grandma
	7:29pm Therese: Yeah, nice grandkids giving their grandparents the wrong address...
	7:29pm listener 126464: cookie power
	7:31pm northguineahills: I once took a tufon wooden frame I found on the street, used power tools (and I was inexperienced w/ said tools), cut it up, and made an A/C frame for my Brooklyn apt, (still proud of it).
	7:31pm slugluv1313: @Fox -- holy crap!!! that sounds totally illegal, ESPECIALLY considering that your landlord is the one violating building codes AND causing your illnesses!
	7:31pm chresti: I want to re-arrange too, but it's a monumental task with wall to wall stacks of magazines, books, artwork, records, etc, in the way. Most I can do is move Franco's doo-dads from the chair if I want to sit down.
	7:33pm northguineahills: The lyrics of this song expresses how I feel, thanks Therese, Melenas, new to me and digdug!
	7:33pm Therese: @chresti- that Franco and his doodads!
	7:34pm northguineahills: mas musica en espanol!
	7:35pm slugluv1313: omg chresti i can soooooo relate -- sounds like my place (where i have lived since 1982) -- have been dying to re-arrange, etc., but in addition to all the stuff that i actually want to keep, i have had NO energy :(
	7:36pm chresti: I know right? @Therese
	7:38pm Fox: Well, I haven't paid rent since August. My roommate moved out, and I told the landlord that I couldn't get a new roommate with the mold unaddressed, the kitchen still leaking, and electrical issues. The Health department can't do anything unless there's visible mold. Even though there was a mold test.
	7:39pm chresti: *^And slugluv, lack of energy def is a factor, otherwise I would bulldose it over in a corner.
	7:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - with African stylee Gittar. Loves.
	7:40pm Chucky Cheeze: I cleaned off my ceiling fan blades and reversed the directions that they spin... I would like to add that a person can't be too careful about eating cookies that were made from within someone else's Germ Bubble, Therese...:)
	7:40pm Fox: I started Marie Kondo-ing my space like three or four years ago. I'm only now finally getting to the point that I feel like I'm nearing completion. It's been a really slow slogging process. But it's very freeing emotionally. It's like defragging the hardrive of my brain through tangible real world action with objects that serve as talismans to my past.
	7:41pm Carmichael: Late heya Therese and peoples.
	7:41pm Chucky Cheeze: I would at least microwave them first!!!...:)
	7:42pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Olé ! Juana Molina! Eres una mujer muy hermosa!
	7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: GhostGrandma XmasCookies - deffo Holiday Horror to be tapped... We want to tell you this Horror story uses Cookies to enhance you experience...
	7:44pm chresti: Chucky, I thought heat killed the little fuckers.
	7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cook them & then koff on them... full hazmat for my takeout if you please...
	7:46pm northguineahills: @Stillwell Coney Islander: Her early acting comedy career in Argentina was awkward, dumb, yet funny. I'm glad she quit acting and went into music, we're better for it.
	7:47pm Chucky Cheeze: Yeah chresti but if they sat around in the open while they were cooling somebody could breathe on them or cough or sneeze or something!!!!...:)
	7:47pm Fox: I'm so strict about leaving the house and masking up and everything, but I order delivery food regularly. I probably shouldn't, huh?
	7:47pm listener 126464: Microwave is great for drying socks if in a hurry.
	7:48pm phat: I utterly missed Pippin.
	7:48pm Sally: Hi all, just tuned in and laughed to myself hearing this song. Only on WFMU ;-)
	7:49pm Chucky Cheeze: Why do you think places like Subway have such a good deal on all their raw stuff nowadays?!?...:)
	7:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Otoh how long can virus survive outside a body? Put it under blacklight...
	7:51pm Chucky Cheeze: You can't go wrong with about eight Jack in the Box tacos!!!...:)
	7:52pm northguineahills: My GI health has suffered since I've been no longer to cook for myself.
	7:54pm Sally: @Fox, I think you're okay with delivery as long as they mask up and social distance. Just wash your hands after opening up any packages, before you eat, and also after you eat. I think I read that was a CDC guideline, can't recall now. Anyway, that's what I do...
	7:54pm chresti: ngh- instant oatmeal.
	7:54pm Stewball: Love this song
	7:55pm Yes: :)
	7:55pm Fox: My goal in life is to be financially stable enough that I will never again have to cook for myself. But ordering food is expensive since there's so much I shouldn't eat! The amount of time I spend scrolling through grubhub is insane.
	7:56pm jt: oh, David B....
	7:56pm northguineahills: @chreti: no access to hot water.
	7:56pm Dave in VT: yeah, jt
	7:57pm Stewball: RIP David B
	7:57pm Sally: @Fox, I get food stamps and it's kind of a scam because the only two places I can get food delivered using my EBT card are from Amazon and Walmart :( At least I get free delivery ha.
	7:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks as always, Therese. Have a good week.
	7:58pm northguineahills: @fox: cooking is one of my joys, and I'm damn good at it! I'll spend hours getting the right ingredients, then another hour cooking. (make enough for a few days).
	7:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Let's put the collective WFMU psy focus on the FEOH Rune : earendel.alaricalbertsson.com... Limitless Wealth is ours. Limitless Wealth comes to us. Limitless Wealth brings us Security, Opportunity & Creativity.
	7:58pm slugluv1313: @ Fox -- ugh -- even with rent in escrow account until violations are corrected?
	7:58pm chresti: I heard that there was less than what was previously believed chance of catching covid from surfaces, especially porous surfaces.
	7:58pm Fox: Sally: SAME! Food Stamp HIGH FIVE! Yay poverty!
	7:58pm DonJuanTijuana: @Therese Thank you again for a GREAT show! Listen to you again next week!!!
	7:59pm northguineahills: What Stewball said... @Sally, that's my next step after resolving my unemployment bs (FL)
	7:59pm Chucky Cheeze: Always so good, Therese!!!...:)
	7:59pm Sally: Woohoo!
	7:59pm Fox: slugluv : escrow? HAH! Nope. My roommate was paying 2/3 the rent.
	7:59pm Cooh John: We had the "Pippin" album as a child. Our family was into musical theater.
	7:59pm listener 126464: Fantastic Therese, thank you!
	7:59pm chresti: Thanks Therese, love your show!
	8:00pm slugluv1313: and yeah, i get food stamps too -- looking forward to when i have some sort of "normal" income and do not have to constantly cook for myself (especially since i am the WORST cook in the world!)
	8:00pm B R M: Thanks Therese! Great show as always. The best part of every Sunday.
	8:00pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Norteguines: oh. No lo sabía eso. Gracias para decirme. Es la primera vez que escucho de ella.
	8:00pm Sally: Thanks Therese! Stay well everyone...
	8:00pm slugluv1313: fantastic show, Therese -- thanks so much! have a great week, everyone -- be well, stay strong!
	8:00pm Therese: Thanks, everyone! Hang in there, and see you back here same time next week...
	8:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY Lady T
	8:01pm Fox: @northguinea: I resent the time and effort cooking takes. Maybe I wouldn't if I wasn't so ADHD, and my hands worked better? I like fancy foods, and I'm poor, so I HAVE to cook for myself! But I grumble the whole time. :D
	8:01pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Goodnight Thérèse
	8:01pm slugluv1313: @Fox -- oh damn! i am so sorry! no help from NJ Legal Services either?

	6:15pm Jett: Hello my great friend @Therese Glad to be treated to be listening to your telecast. I hope all is well over there. So far, I'm okay.
	6:15pm adamdoesit: Hello from early supperland, Therese and everyone. Thanks for something old (REM), something new (Bats).
	6:16pm P-90: If the Deutsche government says it’s cool to go umlaut-free, then I feel a little better...
	6:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: @northguineahills. Sorry to hear that. Are you selling your vinyl collection? Do you live in the WFMU footprint?
	6:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Stipe intelligible words but deffo still down with REM LRP period.
	6:18pm BH: this is probably the best choice for a DCFC cover of TLC. Some other TLC songs might be a little too awkward for Ben Gibbard.
	6:19pm slugluv1313: good evening, Therese and Skeletons and Everyone! nothing equals the original from TLC! but totally enjoying Death Cab for Cutie's take on "Waterfalls" :)
	6:20pm Therese: @BH- it's probably best that he didn't attempt Left Eye's rap, huh?
	6:20pm northguineahills: @Ryansterlingvirtue:nein, I moved down to FL, for a startup that went tits up. I got ill, and am now in my car. I have a friend selling my rekkids via his account. I used to dj for a living, aI traveled the east coast and Mexico. My motto was, all genres, all geographies, all ethnicities, all temporal periods.
	6:21pm northguineahills: I've had TLC playing in my brain lately, as I think my Left Eye's retina got slightly dislodged. (pun intended)
	6:22pm northguineahills: (I never knew DCfC covered TLC)
	6:22pm BH: there is a "no rap" version of Waterfalls, which exists for the radio stations which only play "Groove is in the Heart" without the Q-Tip verses
	6:22pm Jett: You're a regular riot. @Therese LOL.
	6:23pm phat: I missed REM because I was laying down (for a friend) a bassline for a cover of Begin the Begin from the same album. Funny.
	6:23pm slugluv1313: @BH -- oh ick! Lisa Left Eye's rap totally makes Waterfalls!
	6:24pm zivilars: Hey Therese, thanks for the show – unfortunately don't get the chance to listen live very often at this time, but your sets are exquisite!
	6:24pm pp: neat that Colbert is a big fan of Mountain Goats
	6:24pm wendy del formaggio: Fuck yeah! What The Mountain Goats said in the chorus!
	6:25pm Stevel: I'll sing along!
	6:26pm chresti: This year was a killer for sure!
	6:27pm listener 126464: I was gonna say Craig Finn, too
	6:30pm greenpoint: EI = experimental intermix?
	6:31pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Good evening Thérèse. Love Your Show!
	6:31pm Stevel: Does he already have binoculars?
	6:31pm adampsyche: HI ADAMDOESIT, going to miss that foot of snow up here huh ;)
	6:32pm Barbie: Binoculars for dad.
	6:32pm listener 126464: pajamagram
	6:32pm Jett: A pair of binoculars for Dad, some great books for Mama.
	6:32pm wendy del formaggio: Therese, buy you parents a cheese box from Jasper Hill. They’ll ship it. https://www.jasperhillfarm.com/gifts
	6:33pm Stevel: Get them both a gift certificate to a good local BBQ place. Enough so they can order something every week or two.
	6:33pm johnzo: you should get them a couple of baby monitors or walkie talkies so they can comment to each other about the show they're both watching in different rooms
	6:33pm JoyJoy: Get them a nice bird feeder and Audubon guidebook.
	6:33pm Therese: Binoculars might be a good idea, but he thinks he's stealthy...
	6:33pm listener 126464: You could name a star after them.
	6:34pm Jett: @Barbie We had the same thought!
	6:35pm chresti: Mom: yarn, patterns for scarves Dad: a massaging pad for the chair, binoculars
	6:35pm phat: This new Sun Ra Arkestra is good. It's encouraging.
	6:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: }}}}}}}=====> !
	6:36pm DonJuanTijuana: Hi Therese! Sounds excellent as usual for a Sunday evening!!! Keep Rockin It!!!
	6:36pm Stevel: Some sort of periscope for dad...
	6:36pm listener 126464: WFMU Gift Concierge
	6:36pm Therese: @johnzo- they have smartphones, so they can just text each other.
	6:37pm Therese: JoyJoy- that's a good idea!
	6:37pm ?: Thanks for playing Sun Ra.. NYE Philly ❤️
	6:37pm chresti: Maybe a pith helmet to wear while neighborhood watching?
	6:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I want better binoculars before the Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction in a week. Telescope even.
	6:38pm Franco Twinkie: Dad: An anvil and some chop sticks. Mom: An assault rifle and a chemistry set.
	6:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & a baby's arm holding an apple.
	6:39pm chresti: Joyjoy has a good suggestion, unusual wind chimes are nice.
	6:39pm Therese: @Franco- the last thing I need is for my parents to Break Bad.
	6:40pm northguineahills: @sluggluv: I'm not going to lie, I had crush on Left Eye. (which is totally out of left fied (can't stop w/ the puns), as I usually don't like R&B after the early 80s.
	6:41pm chresti: WFMU sweatshirts- his and hers.
	6:41pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, how about his and hers bath mits?
	6:41pm northguineahills: If you can go one wfmu show w/o Sun Ra track/show, punch your card (never such a thing as too much Sun Ra)
	6:42pm northguineahills: Soul Jazz keeps on killing it!
	6:42pm Therese: @NGH- Left Eye was amazing. If you haven't seen the TLC episode of "Behind the Music," please seek it out!
	6:43pm Jett: ...but does that one count as Sun Ra???
	6:44pm northguineahills: @Therese: mierde, didn't know there was one! @Jett: if Marshall Allen is involved, yes!
	6:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's in his - orbit...
	6:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: SYD
	6:46pm Jett: oh yeah! Interstellar Overdrive!
	6:46pm wendy del formaggio: Ooh ooh! Interstellar overdrive! Is this in honor of the meteors
	6:46pm wendy del formaggio: (I forgot the “?”)
	6:46pm Aitch: Piper probably the album I've played the most this year.
	6:46pm steveo: is this jazz? loving the show
	6:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Are we all playing along?
	6:48pm Jett: Great point.@northguineahills
	6:48pm Therese: @Wendy- this whole set is kind of an oblique homage to the meteors
	6:48pm Roberto: Flashback to sophomore year in college and listening to Relics on cassette over and over.
	6:49pm Jett: Piper is a big fave lp of mine.
	6:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Top20 Albums Ever
	6:49pm wendy del formaggio: @Therese: Ah, of course! Excellent.
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: most Psychedelic album ever
	6:52pm Aitch: You’re the left side, he’s the right side Oh, no!
	6:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - see they even presaged TLC.
	6:54pm Frege's Nightmare: gotta love early floyd
	6:54pm listener 126464: So, that wasn't Uncle Floyd?
	6:58pm Stevel: Thanks for everything, Therese! I always enjoy your show. Thanks, everyone!
	7:04pm Fox: AAAAH. That's all I've been doing since the lockdown started, even though I'm slow motion being evicted. I've just rearranged and perfected my whole apartment.
	7:05pm northguineahills: I had the same issue w/ my studio in my old BK apartment....
	7:06pm Therese: Oh no, @Fox! That suuuuuucccckkks!
	7:08pm Franco Twinkie: Therese, can't you wait until you've had a good night sleep?
	7:10pm Therese: @Franco- No! Gotta get the bee out of my bonnet!
	7:12pm Scott67: G'day Therese, dipping my first toe in here today, but can tell I will be here more often:-)
	7:15pm Therese: Welcome, @Scott67!
	7:15pm Fox: Therese - Yeah, but it's making me do all the stuff I was too sick to do to the apartment for years. Just yesterday, I finally put up the curtains I got from the warehouse sale! I'm making this place FLY before I have to leave. It's the principle. And besides, evictions are taking forever! I just can't find anywhere I can afford to move to, is the problem.
	7:15pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, sounds like you're on a mission. You'll probably be glad in the morning when you're sitting there in your pajamas drinking coffee and getting right to work.
	7:15pm northguineahills: @Fox: welcome to the club: landlord lost his lease on his business and moved everything into the house. (at least it's warmer in FL).
	7:16pm Therese: @Fox- those curtains were a FIND!
	7:17pm Dave Miss: Good show from a 1bdr
	7:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bust with the checks McConnell you freak.
	7:18pm Fox: northguineahills: My landlord won't fix the mold in my building that I now know has been making me super sick since I moved here. I went on rent strike, so he's evicting me instead of fixing it. This place is the longest I've ever lived anywhere in my entire life. Go figure.
	7:23pm northguineahills: @Fox: reminds me of my last Brooklyn landlord. Wouldn't live a hand for anything, so, we took care of the mice problem, and did home repair ourselves. Yet, our rent went up $1000 in two years, even though it was a POS where the commons was never cleaned (so, we did). There might me a NYC Health Code violation for mold (not sure about NJS), I vaguely remember a friend getting a landlord to redo his basement apt after a flooding.
	7:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Rent Is Too Damn High - & wages are too low ...& well - most everything...
	7:28pm listener 126464: random grandma
	7:29pm Therese: Yeah, nice grandkids giving their grandparents the wrong address...
	7:29pm listener 126464: cookie power
	7:31pm northguineahills: I once took a tufon wooden frame I found on the street, used power tools (and I was inexperienced w/ said tools), cut it up, and made an A/C frame for my Brooklyn apt, (still proud of it).
	7:31pm slugluv1313: @Fox -- holy crap!!! that sounds totally illegal, ESPECIALLY considering that your landlord is the one violating building codes AND causing your illnesses!
	7:31pm chresti: I want to re-arrange too, but it's a monumental task with wall to wall stacks of magazines, books, artwork, records, etc, in the way. Most I can do is move Franco's doo-dads from the chair if I want to sit down.
	7:33pm northguineahills: The lyrics of this song expresses how I feel, thanks Therese, Melenas, new to me and digdug!
	7:33pm Therese: @chresti- that Franco and his doodads!
	7:34pm northguineahills: mas musica en espanol!
	7:35pm slugluv1313: omg chresti i can soooooo relate -- sounds like my place (where i have lived since 1982) -- have been dying to re-arrange, etc., but in addition to all the stuff that i actually want to keep, i have had NO energy :(
	7:36pm chresti: I know right? @Therese
	7:38pm Fox: Well, I haven't paid rent since August. My roommate moved out, and I told the landlord that I couldn't get a new roommate with the mold unaddressed, the kitchen still leaking, and electrical issues. The Health department can't do anything unless there's visible mold. Even though there was a mold test.
	7:39pm chresti: *^And slugluv, lack of energy def is a factor, otherwise I would bulldose it over in a corner.
	7:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - with African stylee Gittar. Loves.
	7:40pm Chucky Cheeze: I cleaned off my ceiling fan blades and reversed the directions that they spin... I would like to add that a person can't be too careful about eating cookies that were made from within someone else's Germ Bubble, Therese...:)
	7:40pm Fox: I started Marie Kondo-ing my space like three or four years ago. I'm only now finally getting to the point that I feel like I'm nearing completion. It's been a really slow slogging process. But it's very freeing emotionally. It's like defragging the hardrive of my brain through tangible real world action with objects that serve as talismans to my past.
	7:41pm Carmichael: Late heya Therese and peoples.
	7:41pm Chucky Cheeze: I would at least microwave them first!!!...:)
	7:42pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Olé ! Juana Molina! Eres una mujer muy hermosa!
	7:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: GhostGrandma XmasCookies - deffo Holiday Horror to be tapped... We want to tell you this Horror story uses Cookies to enhance you experience...
	7:44pm chresti: Chucky, I thought heat killed the little fuckers.
	7:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cook them & then koff on them... full hazmat for my takeout if you please...
	7:46pm northguineahills: @Stillwell Coney Islander: Her early acting comedy career in Argentina was awkward, dumb, yet funny. I'm glad she quit acting and went into music, we're better for it.
	7:47pm Chucky Cheeze: Yeah chresti but if they sat around in the open while they were cooling somebody could breathe on them or cough or sneeze or something!!!!...:)
	7:47pm Fox: I'm so strict about leaving the house and masking up and everything, but I order delivery food regularly. I probably shouldn't, huh?
	7:47pm listener 126464: Microwave is great for drying socks if in a hurry.
	7:48pm phat: I utterly missed Pippin.
	7:48pm Sally: Hi all, just tuned in and laughed to myself hearing this song. Only on WFMU ;-)
	7:49pm Chucky Cheeze: Why do you think places like Subway have such a good deal on all their raw stuff nowadays?!?...:)
	7:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Otoh how long can virus survive outside a body? Put it under blacklight...
	7:51pm Chucky Cheeze: You can't go wrong with about eight Jack in the Box tacos!!!...:)
	7:52pm northguineahills: My GI health has suffered since I've been no longer to cook for myself.
	7:54pm Sally: @Fox, I think you're okay with delivery as long as they mask up and social distance. Just wash your hands after opening up any packages, before you eat, and also after you eat. I think I read that was a CDC guideline, can't recall now. Anyway, that's what I do...
	7:54pm chresti: ngh- instant oatmeal.
	7:54pm Stewball: Love this song
	7:55pm Yes: :)
	7:55pm Fox: My goal in life is to be financially stable enough that I will never again have to cook for myself. But ordering food is expensive since there's so much I shouldn't eat! The amount of time I spend scrolling through grubhub is insane.
	7:56pm jt: oh, David B....
	7:56pm northguineahills: @chreti: no access to hot water.
	7:56pm Dave in VT: yeah, jt
	7:57pm Stewball: RIP David B
	7:57pm Sally: @Fox, I get food stamps and it's kind of a scam because the only two places I can get food delivered using my EBT card are from Amazon and Walmart :( At least I get free delivery ha.
	7:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks as always, Therese. Have a good week.
	7:58pm northguineahills: @fox: cooking is one of my joys, and I'm damn good at it! I'll spend hours getting the right ingredients, then another hour cooking. (make enough for a few days).
	7:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Let's put the collective WFMU psy focus on the FEOH Rune : earendel.alaricalbertsson.com... Limitless Wealth is ours. Limitless Wealth comes to us. Limitless Wealth brings us Security, Opportunity & Creativity.
	7:58pm slugluv1313: @ Fox -- ugh -- even with rent in escrow account until violations are corrected?
	7:58pm chresti: I heard that there was less than what was previously believed chance of catching covid from surfaces, especially porous surfaces.
	7:58pm Fox: Sally: SAME! Food Stamp HIGH FIVE! Yay poverty!
	7:58pm DonJuanTijuana: @Therese Thank you again for a GREAT show! Listen to you again next week!!!
	7:59pm northguineahills: What Stewball said... @Sally, that's my next step after resolving my unemployment bs (FL)
	7:59pm Chucky Cheeze: Always so good, Therese!!!...:)
	7:59pm Sally: Woohoo!
	7:59pm Fox: slugluv : escrow? HAH! Nope. My roommate was paying 2/3 the rent.
	7:59pm Cooh John: We had the "Pippin" album as a child. Our family was into musical theater.
	7:59pm listener 126464: Fantastic Therese, thank you!
	7:59pm chresti: Thanks Therese, love your show!
	8:00pm slugluv1313: and yeah, i get food stamps too -- looking forward to when i have some sort of "normal" income and do not have to constantly cook for myself (especially since i am the WORST cook in the world!)
	8:00pm B R M: Thanks Therese! Great show as always. The best part of every Sunday.
	8:00pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Norteguines: oh. No lo sabía eso. Gracias para decirme. Es la primera vez que escucho de ella.
	8:00pm Sally: Thanks Therese! Stay well everyone...
	8:00pm slugluv1313: fantastic show, Therese -- thanks so much! have a great week, everyone -- be well, stay strong!
	8:00pm Therese: Thanks, everyone! Hang in there, and see you back here same time next week...
	8:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY Lady T
	8:01pm Fox: @northguinea: I resent the time and effort cooking takes. Maybe I wouldn't if I wasn't so ADHD, and my hands worked better? I like fancy foods, and I'm poor, so I HAVE to cook for myself! But I grumble the whole time. :D
	8:01pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Goodnight Thérèse
	8:01pm slugluv1313: @Fox -- oh damn! i am so sorry! no help from NJ Legal Services either?
