Lolabelle Pancake:

Just an advance notice that Courtney will be returning to the airwaves from his poutin' shanty this week. He discovered that Gus Bodenheim, last week's guest host, was promoting his own literary endeavors on the show. Gus is now being invoiced for commercial airtime, which will cost him more than he was paid to host the show.

An elderly Russian gentleman who fled the USSR told me that civilization began to decline when men decided to go without hats.

Gus Bodenheim:

This is a veritable knife in my proverbial back. I shall have to contemplate my response to this affront over numerous libations, as per usual.
  2:57pm
Listener Robert:

That was as nothing compared to their decision to go without heads. We see the results all around.

Judging by Ms. Braun's parting gesture, it would appear Flabbio is now catching it from both ends.

Gus, I don't want to get between you and Courtney. The only thing worse would be getting between you and a bottle.

Lolabelle Pancake:

Courtney thinks that Hearty White has the 2nd best show on WFMU, and that all other shows are tied for 100th place (there are no programs in 3rd thru 99th place).
  5:31pm
Laura L:

Lolabelle, you may needta contact Euneeda for advice if things get rough between Gus and Courtney. She might know of just the right lubricant to apply in such a sticky situation.

It sounds like Fablio had yodeling playing at the wrong speed with all the board effects on unintentionally. The man is clearly on the cough syrup

Fablio is going to have to declare "I am not a cat" during the mike break to explain this set and I doubt he'll be able to establish credibility

Otis, if you are suffering from heart palpitations, apply cats to the affected area.

Man, I've been dragooned into attending a zoom meeting this exact hour with people (Walt Isaacson, Donna Brazile, etc.) supporting a congressional candidate to replace Cedric Richmond as the New Orleans US House representative. I'd rather hear Fabio, let alone the Codger.... :-(

being dragooned into a Zoom meeting sounds like less fun than the time I got to drive a truck in a parade because I was standing in the parade area and the vehicle owner knew me
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30pm
Alison Porchnik:

A political Zoom call with this playing in the background doesn't sound so bad.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:31pm
Alison Porchnik:

The dialogue is certainly apropos
Avatar 6:32pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Dialogue in Flip films was always a bit "understated."

hadda brooks was cool wish i coulda seen her tv show

This film about mind-altering drugs pre-dated the Hayes Code, of course.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:34pm

@Alison: Thing is, the person with me who is very into this zoom needs to have audio incoming and outgoing, so I can't stream this Codger audio. UGH. Archive later...

G:

Predated Refer Madness by a few years...
  6:35pm
BH:

extra notes on my parade story: I was driving an Excursion, which is described as an SUV, but it was drived from the F-250 pickup truck. Also I looked vaguely like the candidate whose sign was on the truck so parade attendees in cheap seats may have thought the actual candidate showed up and drove a truck. He won the county, so if it works, it works.
Avatar 6:35pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

G — Courtney signaled that you should tell those people to GO GET PLUSHED and leave you alone. This program is far more momentous than any meeting.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:36pm
G:

We are getting a preview of the congressional candidate's campaign's dreary first tv ad now. So thrilling.
  6:37pm
BH:

G: With the correct donation, you can help him/her air that TV ad in New Orleans *and* Baton Rouge.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:37pm
G:

@Lolabelle: At 5:30pm in New Orleans, I keep looking to see someone tippling on their zoom feed. Unhappily, all I see is a bunch of beige wall backgrounds. BORing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:38pm
Alison Porchnik:

Sounds punitive.
Especially the required unmute
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm
G:

@BH: The person here with me who is into this zoom thing can donate. I waste my donational $$ on FMU lol. It cost her $500 to drag me to talk to the Louisiana governor 2 years ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:40pm
G:

Thank g-d it just ended. Music back on finally :-)
  6:41pm
BH:

It feels like $500 is actually a lower price to talk to the Governor of Louisiana than it was in some administrations. Not sure how much Edwin Edwards would have charged when adjusted for inflation
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:41pm
rrg:

You missed Wilmoth Houdini! And more.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:42pm

Edwin wanted a cut for those casino licenses, for sure -- just leave it on the desk and he'd put it in a box in the closet.

Courtney recently took part in a political protest. He helped topple a statue of Arthur Godfrey.

@dale: ghost hoods didn't go well in the wash (I think you know what I'm insinuating).
  6:44pm
BH:

toppling a statue is even more impressive back then because statues used to be a lot heavier during the WPA
  6:47pm
GListener MW:

And people were weaker!! Ever try toppling a statue on an all-gruel orphan diet? It’s tough.
