Fats died 78 years ago. In Courtney's math, that's a prime number.

Looking forward to this show

Today drives home why WFMU archives: I'm listening to the special on industrials in Sheena's Jungle.

DJ Irwin had a program some years ago devoted to Industrial Musicals that's also worth checking out in the handy WFMU archive:

Fablio is still in hiding from Codger's process server. He has Donna doing a Gateway to Noise show today as a fill-in.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:52pm
ultradamno:

Another girl Fablio? Is he sponsoring a sorority?

I've been made aware of certain inside information that suggests that the city of Jersey City only relented on it's rightful claim of the education poverty of the station's programming when made aware of this program. An asset I have to assume not lost on Courtney.

Courtney is a little nervous back in Studio A. He's already on his 2nd bottle of Sly Weasel.

He'll be fine. He's worked from there before.

Are you in the studio as well, Ms. Lolabelle, or do you have a Zoom link open from a remote location?
Avatar 6:13pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Courtney still hasn't acclimated to lady DJs. He tolerates them, but he's shy of outright respect.
Avatar 6:14pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

I'm in the transmitter closet. Except when I rush out to refill Courtney's glass or douse a fire he starts with his cigar.

Outright respect leads to vinyl borrowing, best not to risk it.

I've seen a lot of pictures of ladies playing records and not one where they didn't have their fingers all over the grooves.

Lolabelle Pancake:

Fats plays Bach! Or as he's sometimes known around here, Johann Sebastian Bodenheim.
Avatar 6:20pm
Euneeda S. Bodenheim:

Lolabelle, how did you get around the no visitors policy at the station? I hear management is very strict about any potential interlopers who could be masquerading as "assistants" - even ones they know!
Avatar 6:21pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

(...isn't it presumed they prefer him supervised ?...)

Euneeda: Courtney snuck me in the back door of the studio while Ken was in the station sauna.

I think the Codger might need his crew.... he cant operate the board... or the bathroom

Company car, wave pool, sauna....wonder what other amenities Ken enjoys

Very "educational," Courtney

What other station has both a poet and a bard on the staff?

Impugning a poet's booze knowledge is a low blow

Im learning a bit about the budget.... and am excited for the literary education that this poetry show will bring when it goes back on air :)

I now have something to drink about. Cheers, Codger!

Jim, is that you in the comments, or are you a different poet from another radio station?

Ah yes, the transmitter closet. I hear it's lovely this time of year.

I just assumed it was always Sly Weasel because bottles of the stuff arrives as ad payment

Despite the title of this song, Fats was a vegan!

For ten minutes once, anyway.

I believe that was the party where Al was asked what was in the vault and he replied "nothing, it's just to waste the g-men's time"

Another little-known fact: Fats was the reincarnation of J. S. Bach.
