	♥ 12:25pm David Dichelle: Fred, glad things are looking up!
	♥ 12:27pm Carmichael: Heya David. In a Zoom meeting, but wanted to say I'm watching the board.

	🚂 ♥ 12:29pm dutchtheo: RRRussia!
	🚂 ♥ 12:33pm Sem: Burkina Faso, a little birdie whispered in my ear.
	🚂 ♥ 12:36pm chris in the redwoods: hello, David and fellow travelers. i'll guess Burundi, to match my coffee beans' origin.
	♥ 12:37pm David Dichelle: Hello Chris - sounds like good coffee!
	12:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Enthralling ♃Thor'sday All ! Sounding magnificent.
	🚂 ♥ 12:41pm chris in the redwoods: when i'm home, a good pour-over is a must for me, David. why not be delighted to be awake? :)
	♥ 12:41pm David Dichelle: Hey there Rev Rabbit!
	♥ 12:41pm Hubig Pie: Your cryptic clue has me thinking of a country with a recent name change, like Zaire to Democratic Peoples Republic of Congo or whatever it is now
	♥ 12:42pm David Dichelle: Having a bit of late coffee over here, myself, Chris. Cheers!
	12:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Got nothing but gunpowder green tea ...which is wonderful & goes a long way ...& probly better for me than the mgs. of caffeine I would really like. But - I'll have some more...
	♥ 12:42pm David Dichelle: I may do some more hinting in a minute or two...
	♥ 12:45pm Carmichael: OK, out and listening. And I'm sticking with Senegal.
	🚂 ♥ 12:45pm chresti: Oh, there's a Mr. Roud, here I thought roud was the song style.
	🚂 ♥ 12:47pm chresti: Yerba mate packs a good caffeine punch.
	♥ 12:47pm coelacanth∅: there was a clue? i missed 1/2 the last mic break, damnit!
	12:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fact is - any source of caff finds my favor...
	🚂 ♥ 12:50pm Threemoons: OK....the Azores?
	🚂 ♥ 12:51pm Threemoons: Chad? Liechtenstein?
	🚂 ♥ 12:52pm Threemoons: Liechtenstein!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	♥ 12:52pm coelacanth∅: the "comments" column? THAT DOESN'T HELP!
	♥ 12:53pm coelacanth∅: ...except there's another alphabet used. okay i guess it helps a little!
	♥ 12:53pm David Dichelle: Yes, Steve Roud is the man behind the index.
	♥ 12:54pm David Dichelle: Coel on the right track!!!
	🚂 ♥ 12:54pm Michael 98145: 1980s were fun
	♥ 12:55pm coelacanth∅: my mind is caught on burundian coffee
	🚂 ♥ 12:56pm Yvang: Armenia? (has a beautiful writing)
	🚂 ♥ 12:56pm Brian in UK: Hello David. The road goes on forever.
	♥ 12:56pm David Dichelle: Liechtenstein sounds like fun - but could be a challenge, of course.
	♥ 12:57pm David Dichelle: Good (early) evening, Brian!
	♥ 12:58pm David Dichelle: There is in fact a town called Lichtenstein not far from here. Unsuspecting tourists wind up there all the time looking for the principality.
	🚂 ♥ 12:58pm Yvang: Digging Obojeni Program !
	🚂 ♥ 1:00pm Brian in UK: Unsuspecting Tourists. Was that someones band!
	🚂 ♥ 1:00pm Yvang: Or Clueless tourists?
	♥ 1:00pm Hubig Pie: Based on your not so helpful clues, I'm going Saudi Arabia
	♥ 1:01pm coelacanth∅: they never suspected how clueless they were
	♥ 1:02pm David Dichelle: Well there is a castle in Lichtenstein, Saxony, so the truly clueless may never even realize what happened.
	🚂 ♥ 1:02pm Yvang: At Antarctica you might have to play field recordings of Icebergs...
	🚂 ♥ 1:02pm Stanley: Ali Bon Tempi? Very good. Hey David and everyone.
	♥ 1:03pm David Dichelle: Ciao, Stanley!
	🚂 ♥ 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Greetings, David and Voyageurs! I have been listening the whole time but stuck in the car. Are we meeting for drinks at the Blind Beggar?
	♥ 1:03pm David Dichelle: Yvang, Penguin Operas are legendary.
	♥ 1:04pm David Dichelle: Handy, one day!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Yvang: Looking forward!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Stanley: Rats, I missed the Roud. Did anyone make the comment about the pub in Bethnal Green Road named the Blind Beggar?
	♥ 1:04pm coelacanth∅: icebergs, harp seals and haarp weapons
	1:05pm headcleaner: has a beat & I think I can dance to it
	♥ 1:05pm Hubig Pie: Lichtenstein does a heavy traffic in passport stamping
	♥ 1:05pm David Dichelle: That is the pub in question, Stanley. And apparently our meet-up destination sometime in the mythical? future.
	🚂 ♥ 1:05pm Will in Norman: ooh psychedelic flamenco?! this is lovely
	♥ 1:06pm David Dichelle: Hey there Will!
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: i missed the first clue, but based on the more recent clue i change my guess to ...pakistan?
	♥ 1:08pm fred: @Yvang: When I first saw Armenian, it reminded me of Amharic. An Armenian coworker told me it was a touchy subject. Some believe the designer of the alphabet took inspiration from an earlier version of Amharic to get legacy legitimacy, others say that's BS
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: (though it seems unlikely no one's ever guessed pakistan before)
	🚂 ♥ 1:08pm Will in Norman: i like the idea of a continental subway pub meetup. someday when international travel is a safe idea again....
	♥ 1:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is a tough one to guess today, hence all my atypical hinting.
	🚂 ♥ 1:09pm Stanley: David - The Blind Beggar famed less for the historical character than for where Ronnie Kray gunned down George Cornel of the Richardsons Gang. Now probably a gastro-pub serving craft beer but........
	🚂 ♥ 1:09pm Handy Haversack: Well, my Random Road random generator gave me Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Which I don't think anyone has guessed, at least. But I'm not sure whether it qualifies as needing an extra column! Or whether it's big enough to qualify at all?
	♥ 1:10pm David Dichelle: Will, that would be wonderful - hope it can happen sometime - whether in Jersey City, Leipzig, or indeed the East End of London.
	🚂 ♥ 1:10pm Stanley: David - you go in first.
	🚂 ♥ 1:11pm Will in Norman: ah yeah the rise of gastropubs was 1 thing i really lamented about my last visit to london. I wasn't old enough to drink when london pubs were still as they used to be
	🚂 ♥ 1:11pm Michael 98145: - i who have nothing - 🎵
	🚂 ♥ 1:12pm Yvang: @Fred: My knowlege of this writing is limited to the fascinating and beautiful endcredits of armenian movies I saw years ago. I am very fond of Sergueï Paradjanov's movies.
	♥ 1:12pm Carmichael: @Stanley, are you talking about the Piranha Brothers, Douglas and Dinsdale?
	♥ 1:13pm David Dichelle: Handy: I'm pretty sure those won't make the cut for an hour of music. Probably not even a track to be had from those particular rocks.
	1:13pm ?: Hey, really digging the show. I can't talk much, just wanted to say that. Hi David, hi everybody. I'm guessing Guam....
	🚂 ♥ 1:13pm Will in Norman: if i can drink craft beer at some fancy-ass hipster bar in america, what's the point of doing the same thing in london?
	1:13pm headcleaner: @Will - that's what's weird about England - somehow we want it to have bad food (except for the migrant imports of course)
	♥ 1:14pm David Dichelle: ?: Thanks, glad you're enjoying it!
	🚂 ♥ 1:14pm Will in Norman: i actually kinda like english meatpies
	♥ 1:15pm David Dichelle: I enjoy a traditional-ish English pub and a pint of proper regional bitter.
	🚂 ♥ 1:15pm Handy Haversack: Ha, good to know, David! OK. Well, it then gave me Belgium, which does NOT seem like it fits your criteria ... so one last try: Angola! I don't remember anyone guessing Angola, so I'll stick with it!
	♥ 1:15pm David Dichelle: If they still exist of course.
	🚂 ♥ 1:16pm Handy Haversack: OK, we are going to have to stop all this pub talk unless someone can get me a pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord right away!
	🚂 ♥ 1:16pm βrian: Do gastropubs serve gastropods? As a menu item, I mean.
	🚂 ♥ 1:17pm Michael 98145: hell, i'd be happy to be able to just hang out in any bar again
	♥ 1:17pm Carmichael: Ultimately, they all serve gastroenteritis.
	♥ 1:17pm fred: @βrian: Maybe they do in France
	1:17pm headcleaner: So has India been done? I'm hoping the extra column will be used for language grouping
	♥ 1:18pm coelacanth∅: i think angola's been guessed before Handy (maybe by me?) but you probably shouldn't take my word on it
	♥ 1:19pm Carmichael: There's a task, coel: Download all of Continental Subway's comments, convert to plain text and scan for country names.
	♥ 1:19pm David Dichelle: I don't think anyone is going to guess it, to be honest. Anyhow, I'll be revealing it soon enough.
	♥ 1:20pm David Dichelle: Well, one of you is very close, actually.
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm βrian: Les gastéropodes parfumé à l'ail. Mmm, so tasty.
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm chresti: wfmu.org...
	🚂 ♥ 1:21pm chresti: ^covered roads
	♥ 1:22pm coelacanth∅: i definitely retract my updated guess of pakistan, but i'm not sure where to go... svalbard?
	♥ 1:23pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Chresti! I realize it will increasingly difficult to remember which ones have already been done. The guessing is just for fun of course, anyhow.
	1:23pm Kpx: Hi people, never heard of Yerba mate b4 until yesterday and just moments ago. is that some kind of Coffee brand, or something else?
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm WR: Vatican?
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm dutchtheo: ؟ ٱلْيَمَنِيَّةُ (Yemen‎)
	♥ 1:25pm David Dichelle: Hello Kpx and WR! Mate is a kind of tea from South America and the main component in a lot of trendy soft drinks around here (Germany at least).
	🚂 ♥ 1:25pm βrian: Now I can't find my bombilla.
	♥ 1:26pm coelacanth∅: -i considered yemen. good guess theo, but i guess i'll stick with svalbard ...i think!
	♥ 1:26pm Little Danny: Hi David, hi y'all.
	♥ 1:26pm TDK60: I've been drinkin' yerba mate for a while. Makes me less jittery than the coffee.
	♥ 1:26pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Danny!
	♥ 1:27pm Doug Schulkind: Hi, David! Hey, Subwaytarians!
	♥ 1:29pm coelacanth∅: hey Danny hey Doug!
	🚂 ♥ 1:29pm Brian in UK: Stanley, have you got your birthday suit ready?
	1:32pm Kpx: Thanks DD, @TDK60-it sounds really interesting, I like to try to find some to see what it's like. Can it be found in your regular everyday supermarket.
	♥ 1:32pm Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Give the Drummer Radio is a "clothes-optional" stream.
	🚂 ♥ 1:32pm chresti: I like yerba mate. Guayusa too.
	🚂 ♥ 1:33pm Brian in UK: Just received a copy of Rizan Said's King Of Keyboard. He gives Omar Souleyman his base. So it is north east Syria.
	🚂 ♥ 1:34pm Brian in UK: David, I know, so glad that Doug does not have a web cam like Uncle's.
	♥ 1:35pm David Dichelle: Greetings unto thee, Doug!
	♥ 1:36pm TDK60: Kpx: usually no, only some Latinx grocers or natural food shops.
	1:36pm Kpx: Hi Chresti, not in the tennis booth today.
	🚂 ♥ 1:37pm Brian in UK: Doug, did not read who commented, trying to cook and type.
	♥ 1:38pm David Dichelle: It's strangely difficult to get Mate here on its own, while it is practically everywhere in all those sugary drinks. Fun fact: Club Mate, the main one here, was available in an upscale food store in Jersey City at around 10x the price, when I was there a few years ago.
	🚂 ♥ 1:38pm chresti: Hi Kpx, not today. Yeah TDK60, health food markets. I like the "green" yerba mate.
	1:39pm headcleaner: If it's not too declassée to make another guess I would go with the Republic of South Africa - again hoping the extra column is used for the sake of its appreciable language diversity
	♥ 1:40pm TDK60: What's guayasa, chresti?
	🚂 ♥ 1:40pm Handy Haversack: Well, my emergency back-up guess is Timor-Leste. And let it go at that!
	♥ 1:41pm David Dichelle: Headcleaner: There are no guessing rules or requirements - all just for the fun of it. In fact, I don't even remember how all the guessing started in the first place.
	🚂 ♥ 1:44pm Will in Norman: is this quechua?
	♥ 1:44pm David Dichelle: Will, that is correct.
	🚂 ♥ 1:45pm chresti: en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 ♥ 1:46pm chresti: Guayusa^TDK60 and Kpx
	1:47pm Kpx: TDK60-there is one health food store that is still open in the neighboring town, but if can't find it there, then I don't know what. Well anyhows thanks for the info.
	🚂 ♥ 1:48pm Handy Haversack: Wow, nice, Will.
	♥ 1:49pm TDK60: Thanks chresti. Another holly tree caffeine. Kpx, there are mailorder places for mate. The teaspot.com is one.
	🚂 ♥ 1:49pm chresti: I bet Handy started the guessing, I guess?
	♥ 1:50pm David Dichelle: Yes, well caught, Will - as spoken and sung in Peru.
	♥ 1:50pm TDK60: I used to keep track of guesses. But I got lazy. Guess I need coffee.
	🚂 ♥ 1:51pm chresti: I think I read somewhere that guayusa can make your dreams look blue.
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm YETI BOB: chresti: it was me actually
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Will in Norman: i work at an archive for indigenous american languages. not exactly my area of expertise, but I'm getting better at recognizing them
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Handy Haversack: I started keeping track of Yeti Bob.
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Stanley: Back from the daily potato. Responding to the talk about bad English food, you're more likely to get good food nowadays. And good beer. It's hard for pubs to survive just selling drinks and crisps, nowadays, hence upping their game on the food to compete with restaurants. Roast Sunday lunches are the business, though, especially in London. Perfect for a meet up.
	♥ 1:53pm David Dichelle: Will: That sounds like fascinating work. I'd love to hear more about it.
	🚂 ♥ 1:53pm YETI BOB: www.wfmu.org... 12:05 pm origin of guessing game
	🚂 ♥ 1:53pm Stanley: Morocco.
	♥ 1:54pm David Dichelle: Hey Yeti Bob! What sayeth thy randomizer today?
	♥ 1:54pm David Dichelle: YB: And thanks for getting it all rolling!
	🚂 ♥ 1:55pm Will in Norman: it's a collection at a museum in oklahoma. focusing on indigenou languages spoken in the state. since oklahoma was formerly the 'indian territory' where many eastern tribes were forced to settle to in the trail of tears, this state has more indigenous languages than any other
	🚂 ♥ 1:56pm Will in Norman: it's got both paper & audio-visual materials, i'm the main archivist.
	🚂 ♥ 1:56pm chresti: Aha YETI BOB, it was you!
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm YETI BOB: David - El Salvador - have we been there yet ?
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm YETI BOB: Yes we have - rolling again ...
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Very cool, Will. That's a very special collection indeed!
	🚂 ♥ 1:58pm YETI BOB: Haiti!
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Threemoons: Yep, I heard that Estonian! Taartu="Taar's Rock"--Taar was the local form of Thor, and the rock was where sacrifices were made to him.
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Haitiers gonna Haiti.
	🚂 ♥ 2:00pm Brian in UK: This random road has taken on a life of its own.
	🚂 ♥ 2:01pm Handy Haversack: Djibouti? Qatar!
	♥ 2:01pm Hubig Pie: Cut-urrrrrr
	🚂 ♥ 2:02pm Webhamster Henry: Hi David! Happy belated birthday!
	🚂 ♥ 2:03pm chresti: There are a few African countries still available for guessing.
	♥ 2:04pm Hubig Pie: Get out your Hans Wehr arabic-english dictionary
	♥ 2:04pm coelacanth∅: it's time to hit a different road Thanks David! i'll return to the archive for qatar tchau
	♥ 2:05pm coelacanth∅: chresti - the majority of them!
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: Hello and thanks, Henry!
	🚂 ♥ 2:05pm Will in Norman: i love middle eastern music. i can tell i'm gonna enjoy this set
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: And happy travels, Coel!
	♥ 2:05pm coelacanth∅: ...tiny ones with tons of music
	2:06pm Kpx: Chresti - Blue huh, that sounds like something I could use, because I generally dream in brown and like a dirty white colors, once in a great while I will get some kind of washed out multi colors dreaming going, but not too often. I would ask people if they dream in vivid color, and they would say yes. So I don't know what's wrong with my brain that I can't.
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm Stanley: Will - me too. See you coela
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm chris in the redwoods: see ya later, coel.
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm Handy Haversack: Later, coela!
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm chresti: Wow, Will. Where in Oklahoma?
	♥ 2:07pm David Dichelle: Threemoons: I never heard that before about Tartu, thanks!
	♥ 2:08pm David Dichelle: Will: That does sound like very interesting work. I'll have to look for the website...
	♥ 2:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, plenty of countries to go on all continents, still random-rolling in the upper 190's every week.
	🚂 ♥ 2:09pm Will in Norman: oh yeah! here's the site: samnoblemuseum.ou.edu...
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm chresti: See you later coel!
	♥ 2:10pm David Dichelle: Thanks for the link!
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm Will in Norman: music isn't the focus of the collection, but it makes up a large part of it
	♥ 2:11pm TDK60: Yeah, I figured an Arabic speaking country; there are many.
	♥ 2:12pm David Dichelle: I hope all the transliterations are more or less correct. If anyone speaks Arabic, I'd be happy to hear your feedback!
	♥ 2:12pm Hubig Pie: Missed it by that much... (Insert Get Smart impersonation here). Do I win half a kofta kebab or something?
	🚂 ♥ 2:13pm Yvang: This could be a bollywood tune !
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Yes, congrats Hubig, you were just across the border!
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Yes, sure sounds like an influence here.
	🚂 ♥ 2:14pm Stanley: Half a kofta? Come over to the fire pit, Hubig, and see what we've got going here.
	🚂 ♥ 2:14pm Bas NL: Hi David! All! Oww, Quatar! Too late for me to guess Norway in honor of last week..
	🚂 ♥ 2:15pm chris in the redwoods: have always loved the sound of Arabic, but haven't learned much of the language... yet... :)
	♥ 2:15pm David Dichelle: Hey there Bas - it's never too late to guess in honor of previous weeks!
	♥ 2:20pm Hubig Pie: Shookran Stanley. I loves some meze from Al-Shirq Al-Awsat. David, I took a course in Arabic-Egyptian at the DLI back in '79. So if any of the songs are about tanks or helicopters, I can help you with that
	♥ 2:21pm David Dichelle: Well, I don't think or necessarily hope so, Hubig, but t(h)anks!
	♥ 2:23pm David Dichelle: One of the challenges of learning Arabic is the wide range of dialects, which are often in fact more like regional sub-languages.
	🚂 ♥ 2:24pm Stanley: Hubig - I learnt my Arabic from six months in Egypt and Sudan. Lived in Cairo for a while and it remains one of the best time of my life. Loved the food, culture and the people. Erhumdillilah.
	♥ 2:26pm Hubig Pie: Ja, David. The course was a full year of Modern Standard Arabic, then 6 weeks of Egyptian dialect which basically threw the previous 12 months under the bus
	🚂 ♥ 2:26pm Michael 98145: Ah, food. NOW we're talkin
	2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just flat-out love Arab Musics.
	🚂 ♥ 2:27pm chris in the redwoods: this here's a jam!
	🚂 ♥ 2:27pm Will in Norman: the DLI's an interesting thing. one of my russian teachers in college learned russian there. he was stationed in germany in the 80s listening to soviet radio traffic
	🚂 ♥ 2:28pm Handy Haversack: Hoo, that cooked!
	2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...always think: Putumayo has Music From The Coffee / Tea Lands comps ...so - Music From The Hashish Lands :D ...
	♥ 2:29pm fred: Shout out to Kenzo for building a playlist system that can handle Arabic. It's not that common
	♥ 2:29pm Hubig Pie: Will in N, I was stationed in Crete listening to Lybian radio traffic in the early'80's
	♥ 2:30pm David Dichelle: Yes, big thanks to Kenzo for maintaining this great system!
	🚂 ♥ 2:30pm Bas NL: These songs all sound very lyrical and melodic. Great picks David!
	♥ 2:30pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Bas!
	2:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kenzo = ThuhWhiz. Though you need plain English alphanumerics in the Song column to clickystar...
	🚂 ♥ 2:31pm Will in Norman: @hubig ah interesting. that russian teacher later worked with russians in former yugoslavia in the 90s & he's spent a lot of time backpacking throughout the former soviet union. he had a lot of great stories.
	♥ 2:31pm Hubig Pie: Our listening post scooped Gaddafi's invasion of Chad
	🚂 ♥ 2:32pm Handy Haversack: I think it works to encase the song titles in parens in the Song column and paste the other script in. Just that last character needs the right encoding to get the star there.
	🚂 ♥ 2:32pm Michael 98145: Where else could we be listening to a program broadcasting from Saxony, playing music from Qatar ?!?
	♥ 2:32pm David Dichelle: Rev Rabbit: I think that may have been fixed at least in some cases. I do like to have the transliteration there anyway so that everyone gets an idea of what it is on their various apps and displays.
	2:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Handy / DD Thx for precision...
	♥ 2:33pm David Dichelle: Hubig: That must have been fascinating!
	♥ 2:35pm Carmichael: I also spent time in the Middle East in the late 70s. Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Turkey while in the military. It wasn't a Club Med tour ...
	2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny Cash monitored Soviet messages in the Service...

	12:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Got nothing but gunpowder green tea ...which is wonderful & goes a long way ...& probly better for me than the mgs. of caffeine I would really like. But - I'll have some more...

	🚂 ♥ 12:56pm Brian in UK: Hello David. The road goes on forever.
	♥ 12:56pm David Dichelle: Liechtenstein sounds like fun - but could be a challenge, of course.
	♥ 12:57pm David Dichelle: Good (early) evening, Brian!
	♥ 12:58pm David Dichelle: There is in fact a town called Lichtenstein not far from here. Unsuspecting tourists wind up there all the time looking for the principality.
	🚂 ♥ 12:58pm Yvang: Digging Obojeni Program !
	🚂 ♥ 1:00pm Brian in UK: Unsuspecting Tourists. Was that someones band!
	🚂 ♥ 1:00pm Yvang: Or Clueless tourists?
	♥ 1:00pm Hubig Pie: Based on your not so helpful clues, I'm going Saudi Arabia
	♥ 1:01pm coelacanth∅: they never suspected how clueless they were
	♥ 1:02pm David Dichelle: Well there is a castle in Lichtenstein, Saxony, so the truly clueless may never even realize what happened.
	🚂 ♥ 1:02pm Yvang: At Antarctica you might have to play field recordings of Icebergs...
	🚂 ♥ 1:02pm Stanley: Ali Bon Tempi? Very good. Hey David and everyone.
	♥ 1:03pm David Dichelle: Ciao, Stanley!
	🚂 ♥ 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Greetings, David and Voyageurs! I have been listening the whole time but stuck in the car. Are we meeting for drinks at the Blind Beggar?
	♥ 1:03pm David Dichelle: Yvang, Penguin Operas are legendary.
	♥ 1:04pm David Dichelle: Handy, one day!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Yvang: Looking forward!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Stanley: Rats, I missed the Roud. Did anyone make the comment about the pub in Bethnal Green Road named the Blind Beggar?
	♥ 1:04pm coelacanth∅: icebergs, harp seals and haarp weapons
	1:05pm headcleaner: has a beat & I think I can dance to it
	♥ 1:05pm Hubig Pie: Lichtenstein does a heavy traffic in passport stamping
	♥ 1:05pm David Dichelle: That is the pub in question, Stanley. And apparently our meet-up destination sometime in the mythical? future.
	🚂 ♥ 1:05pm Will in Norman: ooh psychedelic flamenco?! this is lovely
	♥ 1:06pm David Dichelle: Hey there Will!
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: i missed the first clue, but based on the more recent clue i change my guess to ...pakistan?
	♥ 1:08pm fred: @Yvang: When I first saw Armenian, it reminded me of Amharic. An Armenian coworker told me it was a touchy subject. Some believe the designer of the alphabet took inspiration from an earlier version of Amharic to get legacy legitimacy, others say that's BS
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: (though it seems unlikely no one's ever guessed pakistan before)
	🚂 ♥ 1:08pm Will in Norman: i like the idea of a continental subway pub meetup. someday when international travel is a safe idea again....
	♥ 1:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is a tough one to guess today, hence all my atypical hinting.
	🚂 ♥ 1:09pm Stanley: David - The Blind Beggar famed less for the historical character than for where Ronnie Kray gunned down George Cornel of the Richardsons Gang. Now probably a gastro-pub serving craft beer but........
	🚂 ♥ 1:09pm Handy Haversack: Well, my Random Road random generator gave me Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Which I don't think anyone has guessed, at least. But I'm not sure whether it qualifies as needing an extra column! Or whether it's big enough to qualify at all?
	♥ 1:10pm David Dichelle: Will, that would be wonderful - hope it can happen sometime - whether in Jersey City, Leipzig, or indeed the East End of London.
	🚂 ♥ 1:10pm Stanley: David - you go in first.
	🚂 ♥ 1:11pm Will in Norman: ah yeah the rise of gastropubs was 1 thing i really lamented about my last visit to london. I wasn't old enough to drink when london pubs were still as they used to be
	🚂 ♥ 1:11pm Michael 98145: - i who have nothing - 🎵
	🚂 ♥ 1:12pm Yvang: @Fred: My knowlege of this writing is limited to the fascinating and beautiful endcredits of armenian movies I saw years ago. I am very fond of Sergueï Paradjanov's movies.
	♥ 1:12pm Carmichael: @Stanley, are you talking about the Piranha Brothers, Douglas and Dinsdale?
	♥ 1:13pm David Dichelle: Handy: I'm pretty sure those won't make the cut for an hour of music. Probably not even a track to be had from those particular rocks.
	1:13pm ?: Hey, really digging the show. I can't talk much, just wanted to say that. Hi David, hi everybody. I'm guessing Guam....
	🚂 ♥ 1:13pm Will in Norman: if i can drink craft beer at some fancy-ass hipster bar in america, what's the point of doing the same thing in london?
	1:13pm headcleaner: @Will - that's what's weird about England - somehow we want it to have bad food (except for the migrant imports of course)
	♥ 1:14pm David Dichelle: ?: Thanks, glad you're enjoying it!
	🚂 ♥ 1:14pm Will in Norman: i actually kinda like english meatpies
	♥ 1:15pm David Dichelle: I enjoy a traditional-ish English pub and a pint of proper regional bitter.
	🚂 ♥ 1:15pm Handy Haversack: Ha, good to know, David! OK. Well, it then gave me Belgium, which does NOT seem like it fits your criteria ... so one last try: Angola! I don't remember anyone guessing Angola, so I'll stick with it!
	♥ 1:15pm David Dichelle: If they still exist of course.
	🚂 ♥ 1:16pm Handy Haversack: OK, we are going to have to stop all this pub talk unless someone can get me a pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord right away!
	🚂 ♥ 1:16pm βrian: Do gastropubs serve gastropods? As a menu item, I mean.
	🚂 ♥ 1:17pm Michael 98145: hell, i'd be happy to be able to just hang out in any bar again
	♥ 1:17pm Carmichael: Ultimately, they all serve gastroenteritis.
	♥ 1:17pm fred: @βrian: Maybe they do in France
	1:17pm headcleaner: So has India been done? I'm hoping the extra column will be used for language grouping
	♥ 1:18pm coelacanth∅: i think angola's been guessed before Handy (maybe by me?) but you probably shouldn't take my word on it
	♥ 1:19pm Carmichael: There's a task, coel: Download all of Continental Subway's comments, convert to plain text and scan for country names.
	♥ 1:19pm David Dichelle: I don't think anyone is going to guess it, to be honest. Anyhow, I'll be revealing it soon enough.
	♥ 1:20pm David Dichelle: Well, one of you is very close, actually.
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm βrian: Les gastéropodes parfumé à l'ail. Mmm, so tasty.
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm chresti: wfmu.org...
	🚂 ♥ 1:21pm chresti: ^covered roads
	♥ 1:22pm coelacanth∅: i definitely retract my updated guess of pakistan, but i'm not sure where to go... svalbard?
	♥ 1:23pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Chresti! I realize it will increasingly difficult to remember which ones have already been done. The guessing is just for fun of course, anyhow.
	1:23pm Kpx: Hi people, never heard of Yerba mate b4 until yesterday and just moments ago. is that some kind of Coffee brand, or something else?
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm WR: Vatican?
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm dutchtheo: ؟ ٱلْيَمَنِيَّةُ (Yemen‎)
	♥ 1:25pm David Dichelle: Hello Kpx and WR! Mate is a kind of tea from South America and the main component in a lot of trendy soft drinks around here (Germany at least).
	🚂 ♥ 1:25pm βrian: Now I can't find my bombilla.
	♥ 1:26pm coelacanth∅: -i considered yemen. good guess theo, but i guess i'll stick with svalbard ...i think!
	♥ 1:26pm Little Danny: Hi David, hi y'all.
	♥ 1:26pm TDK60: I've been drinkin' yerba mate for a while. Makes me less jittery than the coffee.
	♥ 1:26pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Danny!
	♥ 1:27pm Doug Schulkind: Hi, David! Hey, Subwaytarians!
	♥ 1:29pm coelacanth∅: hey Danny hey Doug!
	🚂 ♥ 1:29pm Brian in UK: Stanley, have you got your birthday suit ready?
	1:32pm Kpx: Thanks DD, @TDK60-it sounds really interesting, I like to try to find some to see what it's like. Can it be found in your regular everyday supermarket.
	♥ 1:32pm Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Give the Drummer Radio is a "clothes-optional" stream.
	🚂 ♥ 1:32pm chresti: I like yerba mate. Guayusa too.
	🚂 ♥ 1:33pm Brian in UK: Just received a copy of Rizan Said's King Of Keyboard. He gives Omar Souleyman his base. So it is north east Syria.
	🚂 ♥ 1:34pm Brian in UK: David, I know, so glad that Doug does not have a web cam like Uncle's.
	♥ 1:35pm David Dichelle: Greetings unto thee, Doug!
	♥ 1:36pm TDK60: Kpx: usually no, only some Latinx grocers or natural food shops.
	1:36pm Kpx: Hi Chresti, not in the tennis booth today.
	🚂 ♥ 1:37pm Brian in UK: Doug, did not read who commented, trying to cook and type.
	♥ 1:38pm David Dichelle: It's strangely difficult to get Mate here on its own, while it is practically everywhere in all those sugary drinks. Fun fact: Club Mate, the main one here, was available in an upscale food store in Jersey City at around 10x the price, when I was there a few years ago.
	🚂 ♥ 1:38pm chresti: Hi Kpx, not today. Yeah TDK60, health food markets. I like the "green" yerba mate.
	1:39pm headcleaner: If it's not too declassée to make another guess I would go with the Republic of South Africa - again hoping the extra column is used for the sake of its appreciable language diversity
	♥ 1:40pm TDK60: What's guayasa, chresti?
	🚂 ♥ 1:40pm Handy Haversack: Well, my emergency back-up guess is Timor-Leste. And let it go at that!
	♥ 1:41pm David Dichelle: Headcleaner: There are no guessing rules or requirements - all just for the fun of it. In fact, I don't even remember how all the guessing started in the first place.
	🚂 ♥ 1:44pm Will in Norman: is this quechua?
	♥ 1:44pm David Dichelle: Will, that is correct.
	🚂 ♥ 1:45pm chresti: en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 ♥ 1:46pm chresti: Guayusa^TDK60 and Kpx
	1:47pm Kpx: TDK60-there is one health food store that is still open in the neighboring town, but if can't find it there, then I don't know what. Well anyhows thanks for the info.
	🚂 ♥ 1:48pm Handy Haversack: Wow, nice, Will.
	♥ 1:49pm TDK60: Thanks chresti. Another holly tree caffeine. Kpx, there are mailorder places for mate. The teaspot.com is one.
	🚂 ♥ 1:49pm chresti: I bet Handy started the guessing, I guess?
	♥ 1:50pm David Dichelle: Yes, well caught, Will - as spoken and sung in Peru.
	♥ 1:50pm TDK60: I used to keep track of guesses. But I got lazy. Guess I need coffee.
	🚂 ♥ 1:51pm chresti: I think I read somewhere that guayusa can make your dreams look blue.
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm YETI BOB: chresti: it was me actually
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Will in Norman: i work at an archive for indigenous american languages. not exactly my area of expertise, but I'm getting better at recognizing them
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Handy Haversack: I started keeping track of Yeti Bob.
	🚂 ♥ 1:52pm Stanley: Back from the daily potato. Responding to the talk about bad English food, you're more likely to get good food nowadays. And good beer. It's hard for pubs to survive just selling drinks and crisps, nowadays, hence upping their game on the food to compete with restaurants. Roast Sunday lunches are the business, though, especially in London. Perfect for a meet up.
	♥ 1:53pm David Dichelle: Will: That sounds like fascinating work. I'd love to hear more about it.
	🚂 ♥ 1:53pm YETI BOB: www.wfmu.org... 12:05 pm origin of guessing game
	🚂 ♥ 1:53pm Stanley: Morocco.
	♥ 1:54pm David Dichelle: Hey Yeti Bob! What sayeth thy randomizer today?
	♥ 1:54pm David Dichelle: YB: And thanks for getting it all rolling!
	🚂 ♥ 1:55pm Will in Norman: it's a collection at a museum in oklahoma. focusing on indigenou languages spoken in the state. since oklahoma was formerly the 'indian territory' where many eastern tribes were forced to settle to in the trail of tears, this state has more indigenous languages than any other
	🚂 ♥ 1:56pm Will in Norman: it's got both paper & audio-visual materials, i'm the main archivist.
	🚂 ♥ 1:56pm chresti: Aha YETI BOB, it was you!
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm YETI BOB: David - El Salvador - have we been there yet ?
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm YETI BOB: Yes we have - rolling again ...
	🚂 ♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Very cool, Will. That's a very special collection indeed!
	🚂 ♥ 1:58pm YETI BOB: Haiti!
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Threemoons: Yep, I heard that Estonian! Taartu="Taar's Rock"--Taar was the local form of Thor, and the rock was where sacrifices were made to him.
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Haitiers gonna Haiti.
	🚂 ♥ 2:00pm Brian in UK: This random road has taken on a life of its own.
	🚂 ♥ 2:01pm Handy Haversack: Djibouti? Qatar!
	♥ 2:01pm Hubig Pie: Cut-urrrrrr
	🚂 ♥ 2:02pm Webhamster Henry: Hi David! Happy belated birthday!
	🚂 ♥ 2:03pm chresti: There are a few African countries still available for guessing.
	♥ 2:04pm Hubig Pie: Get out your Hans Wehr arabic-english dictionary
	♥ 2:04pm coelacanth∅: it's time to hit a different road Thanks David! i'll return to the archive for qatar tchau
	♥ 2:05pm coelacanth∅: chresti - the majority of them!
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: Hello and thanks, Henry!
	🚂 ♥ 2:05pm Will in Norman: i love middle eastern music. i can tell i'm gonna enjoy this set
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: And happy travels, Coel!
	♥ 2:05pm coelacanth∅: ...tiny ones with tons of music
	2:06pm Kpx: Chresti - Blue huh, that sounds like something I could use, because I generally dream in brown and like a dirty white colors, once in a great while I will get some kind of washed out multi colors dreaming going, but not too often. I would ask people if they dream in vivid color, and they would say yes. So I don't know what's wrong with my brain that I can't.
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm Stanley: Will - me too. See you coela
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm chris in the redwoods: see ya later, coel.
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm Handy Haversack: Later, coela!
	🚂 ♥ 2:07pm chresti: Wow, Will. Where in Oklahoma?
	♥ 2:07pm David Dichelle: Threemoons: I never heard that before about Tartu, thanks!
	♥ 2:08pm David Dichelle: Will: That does sound like very interesting work. I'll have to look for the website...
	♥ 2:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, plenty of countries to go on all continents, still random-rolling in the upper 190's every week.
	🚂 ♥ 2:09pm Will in Norman: oh yeah! here's the site: samnoblemuseum.ou.edu...
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm chresti: See you later coel!
	♥ 2:10pm David Dichelle: Thanks for the link!
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm Will in Norman: music isn't the focus of the collection, but it makes up a large part of it
	♥ 2:11pm TDK60: Yeah, I figured an Arabic speaking country; there are many.
	♥ 2:12pm David Dichelle: I hope all the transliterations are more or less correct. If anyone speaks Arabic, I'd be happy to hear your feedback!
	♥ 2:12pm Hubig Pie: Missed it by that much... (Insert Get Smart impersonation here). Do I win half a kofta kebab or something?
	🚂 ♥ 2:13pm Yvang: This could be a bollywood tune !
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Yes, congrats Hubig, you were just across the border!
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Yes, sure sounds like an influence here.
	🚂 ♥ 2:14pm Stanley: Half a kofta? Come over to the fire pit, Hubig, and see what we've got going here.
	🚂 ♥ 2:14pm Bas NL: Hi David! All! Oww, Quatar! Too late for me to guess Norway in honor of last week..
	🚂 ♥ 2:15pm chris in the redwoods: have always loved the sound of Arabic, but haven't learned much of the language... yet... :)
	♥ 2:15pm David Dichelle: Hey there Bas - it's never too late to guess in honor of previous weeks!
	♥ 2:20pm Hubig Pie: Shookran Stanley. I loves some meze from Al-Shirq Al-Awsat. David, I took a course in Arabic-Egyptian at the DLI back in '79. So if any of the songs are about tanks or helicopters, I can help you with that
	♥ 2:21pm David Dichelle: Well, I don't think or necessarily hope so, Hubig, but t(h)anks!
	♥ 2:23pm David Dichelle: One of the challenges of learning Arabic is the wide range of dialects, which are often in fact more like regional sub-languages.
	🚂 ♥ 2:24pm Stanley: Hubig - I learnt my Arabic from six months in Egypt and Sudan. Lived in Cairo for a while and it remains one of the best time of my life. Loved the food, culture and the people. Erhumdillilah.
	♥ 2:26pm Hubig Pie: Ja, David. The course was a full year of Modern Standard Arabic, then 6 weeks of Egyptian dialect which basically threw the previous 12 months under the bus
	🚂 ♥ 2:26pm Michael 98145: Ah, food. NOW we're talkin
	2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just flat-out love Arab Musics.
	🚂 ♥ 2:27pm chris in the redwoods: this here's a jam!
	🚂 ♥ 2:27pm Will in Norman: the DLI's an interesting thing. one of my russian teachers in college learned russian there. he was stationed in germany in the 80s listening to soviet radio traffic
	🚂 ♥ 2:28pm Handy Haversack: Hoo, that cooked!
	2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...always think: Putumayo has Music From The Coffee / Tea Lands comps ...so - Music From The Hashish Lands :D ...
	♥ 2:29pm fred: Shout out to Kenzo for building a playlist system that can handle Arabic. It's not that common
	♥ 2:29pm Hubig Pie: Will in N, I was stationed in Crete listening to Lybian radio traffic in the early'80's
	♥ 2:30pm David Dichelle: Yes, big thanks to Kenzo for maintaining this great system!
	🚂 ♥ 2:30pm Bas NL: These songs all sound very lyrical and melodic. Great picks David!
	♥ 2:30pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Bas!
	2:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kenzo = ThuhWhiz. Though you need plain English alphanumerics in the Song column to clickystar...
	🚂 ♥ 2:31pm Will in Norman: @hubig ah interesting. that russian teacher later worked with russians in former yugoslavia in the 90s & he's spent a lot of time backpacking throughout the former soviet union. he had a lot of great stories.
	♥ 2:31pm Hubig Pie: Our listening post scooped Gaddafi's invasion of Chad
	🚂 ♥ 2:32pm Handy Haversack: I think it works to encase the song titles in parens in the Song column and paste the other script in. Just that last character needs the right encoding to get the star there.
	🚂 ♥ 2:32pm Michael 98145: Where else could we be listening to a program broadcasting from Saxony, playing music from Qatar ?!?
	♥ 2:32pm David Dichelle: Rev Rabbit: I think that may have been fixed at least in some cases. I do like to have the transliteration there anyway so that everyone gets an idea of what it is on their various apps and displays.
	2:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Handy / DD Thx for precision...
	♥ 2:33pm David Dichelle: Hubig: That must have been fascinating!
	♥ 2:35pm Carmichael: I also spent time in the Middle East in the late 70s. Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Turkey while in the military. It wasn't a Club Med tour ...
	2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Johnny Cash monitored Soviet messages in the Service...
	♥ 2:35pm Hubig Pie: David, I was in the Air Force but basically worked for the big bad NSA
	🚂 ♥ 2:36pm Webhamster Henry: Are any of these tunes about Qatar?
	2:36pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	♥ 2:36pm Carmichael: Hubig, I was USAF also.
	♥ 2:36pm David Dichelle: Henry: Most of them are love songs and the like, as is not uncommon in the region.
	🚂 ♥ 2:36pm chris in the redwoods: Hubig, my brother retired from same in the late 90s
	♥ 2:36pm David Dichelle: Hey Larry!
	♥ 2:39pm Hubig Pie: I did get to do a rucksack tour of Morocco while I was over there
	🚂 ♥ 2:40pm Will in Norman: judging by that sweet electric organ that just started this track is probably a bit older than the others we've had so far
	♥ 2:41pm David Dichelle: Yes, I don't have a year on this one but it does have that vintage sounds, and love that organ!
	🚂 ♥ 2:44pm Bas NL: Beautiful this Sakr Saleh track.
	🚂 ♥ 2:45pm Will in Norman: most of my knowledge of middle eastern music is egyptian, morroccan, lebanese stuff (especially fairouz & oum kalthoum), i don't really know much about qatar's music.
	♥ 2:45pm David Dichelle: Will: Yes, it was a bit of a challenge this week in fact.
	🚂 ♥ 2:46pm Handy Haversack: Makes you long for Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha! (Kidding -- this is great. Thanks for all the effort, David!)
	🚂 ♥ 2:47pm Will in Norman: oh also algeria. I'm very fond of Rai music
	♥ 2:48pm David Dichelle: Haha, my pleasure, Handy!
	🚂 ♥ 2:48pm chresti: Wow, Hubig and Carmichael.
	♥ 2:50pm Carmichael: Yeah, we're regular GI Joes with Kung Fu Grip.
	♥ 2:51pm Hubig Pie: Charmicheal, you were stationed at Incirlik?
	🚂 ♥ 2:51pm Stanley: Will - then a little further south and you've got Senegal and Mali. African music power houses. My favourite music from the region is Nubian music.
	🚂 ♥ 2:52pm chresti: Glad you survived, Carm and Hubig.
	♥ 2:52pm Carmichael: No, I was at Bushir AB in Tehran.
	🚂 ♥ 2:52pm Michael 98145: Well, that was great. Thank you 🎵
	🚂 ♥ 2:52pm Will in Norman: oh yeah, west african music is wonderful too
