	⚡ ♥ 6:54am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Animal Farm" by "The Kinks" song reminds me of a beach i happened upon in mendocino, where everybody there including the dogs were like the happiest beings on the face of the earth.
	6:58am Cooh John: Right you are, ?. Intelligent life from another planet would see us humans as an infestation. 👀
	6:58am ?: ↳ Song: "Clip: WHOU-new Texas laws protect pets, ban puppy... It's a start. Laws are only as good as the willingness to enforce them.

	7:20am Buddha of Suburbia: Dale, hello! My phone is at the repair place hence why some of you haven't heard from me.
	♥ 7:20am Reagan NY ZEN RN: Good morning Buddha. Howzitgoin?
	7:20am Cooh John: Hitler was inspired by genocide of the native people that the white man killed here in the America's. Sadly, we still see remnants of the point of view.
	7:21am Buddha of Suburbia: Hey there, Reagan! Things are good! Thanks! How are you? Hi Brian D!

	7:24am Buddha of Suburbia: Yeah, they said they just have to put in a new screen. Either it was on too long or it got wet. Insurance covers it so that's good. And I finally got my Honda out of the autoshop. Oh no!!! I love Koi fish.
	7:26am ?: ↳ dale @7:23 One happy otter

	7:29am Buddha of Suburbia: Remember Dale, I sent you the photos. I was on cloud nine. She even gave me her cell number, but I never had the guts to call.
	⚡ ♥ 7:31am dale: ↳ Buddha of Suburbia @7:29 maybe your phone blew up because she was trying to call YOU.
	7:34am Buddha of Suburbia: Ha Dale! Nah, that was when I owned a cheapskate Metro PC phone. I'm an I-phone girl now. I love Dylan. I gave this huge Dylan poetry/lyric book to an ex boyfriend. I shouldn't have done that.

	7:47am Buddha of Suburbia: I'm gonna get going. Great show. I'm considered a chatroom menace because I talk too much and say "hi" to everyone. Thanks for waking up so early and treating us to this feast of easy listening music. It's delightful!
	7:47am Juli: Still sick. Must go to training 8-1

	7:50am Juli: Oooooof Sickness hurts
	7:50am Claire from Montclair: Good Saturday morning!
	7:50am ?: Isn't the point of a "chatt board" to chat? :)
	7:50am Toothgrinder Tom: I wonder what will happen to those Chinese people who dug a hole in the Great Wall to make a ‘shortcut’ for their convenience. Firing squad at dawn? Not that they don’t deserve it but …
	⚡ ♥ 7:52am dale: ↳ Song: "Air Ride" by "The Violet Mine" violet mine really must have liked the pretenders.
	7:53am Buddha of Suburbia: Hope you feel better Juili. Bye Spandau Dallet! I thought that was Chrissy Hynde with the Pretenders. They totally stole their sound. Not dool, Violet Mine. Get your own sound. Dale, ha!

	8:03am ?: ↳ nope @7:53 same thing Who needs stinkin' rules
	♥ 8:04am WR: Not sure I was informed there was going to be "jazz". Likely sure information is distributed on a need to know basis. Hello Brian & folks.
	♥ 8:06am Brian D: ↳ @8:03 I had a boss tell me once, "The only rule is there are no rules." Then he proceeded to institute a bunch of draconian rules. My only rule on the comments board is be kind to each other and appreciative of the artists making the music we're listening to.
	♥ 8:06am Brian D: ↳ WR @8:04 Hey WR. Sorry. More warning next time.

	♥ 8:32am Brian D: ↳ Matty cannabis @8:31 Thank you, Matty. Glad and honored to be here.
	8:32am pp: 3 times played as Smashmouth, 4 as "smash mouth". always need to check variations as search is not AI aware.
	♥ 8:33am Brian D: ↳ pp @8:32 Huh. Thanks PP!
	♥ 8:33am TDK60: I've never heard of Smash Mouth. I'm so out of touch. Is it possible some people are more upset about tennis disruptions than the actual climate crisis? Really?! There WILL be more disruption....
	8:34am pp: you're welcome. search is so comprehensive that your play is already included in the set of 4 plays!
	♥ 8:35am Megaroni: Happy Caturday Currents))):)!
	⚡ ♥ 8:36am fred: ↳ pp @8:34 I think we can thank Kenzo for that: he believes in keeping things lightweight, simple, and responsive
	♥ 8:36am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @8:33 The vast majority of news reports I saw/heard focused on the "disruption."
	♥ 8:37am Brian D: ↳ Megaroni @8:35 Thank you, Megaroni!
	♥ 8:37am Brian D: ↳ fred @8:36 In my case, two out of three ain't bad.
	8:38am bobobob plasticland: Nice Show ...!!!!!
	8:39am pp: I confuse Smash Mouth with Offspring and Sublime, kind of cookie cutter stuff perfected by PhDs
	⚡ ♥ 8:46am Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ: I miss Kitty Corner, but I'm liking the program. Don't tell Ken about the jazz tho.
	♥ 8:48am Brian D: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 Thank you, Peter. Kitty Corner, I believe, will return Monday the 18th.
	♥ 8:50am WR: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 which reminds me, I've already forgotten the new time slot for Bad Animals. Oh, Mondays at 8PM for 1 hour. oh, Dan Bodah is off the schedule....
	8:50am rich from angleton: Brian - so great listening to you live instead of on the archive. great show as always!!!
	⚡ ♥ 8:50am fred: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 Maybe the new schedule will confuse Inspector Bongo for a while
	♥ 8:50am Steve from Dunwoody: Thanks for the Smash Mouth track and the Steve Harwell obit link. Straight-forward pop/rock band who make music to be enjoyed.
	8:52am bobob sounds: sounds lil like Eno
	⚡ ♥ 8:52am Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ: ↳ fred @8:50 😂😂😂
	8:52am bobobob: infact alot like Eno
	♥ 8:55am radioronan: Thanks for the Bad Animal fill-in Brian! Cheers!
	♥ 8:56am Zinn The Mood: Great show! Capitalism is inescapable, so they say. Most of our interactions have become commodified; it’s consumerism instead of community; I Me Mine; social media replaces gathering in person (who has the time anyway - gotta keep working to keep up with the price-gouging and the Joneses). Keep shopping is the mantra. It’s no wonder that alienation and isolation set in, while trying to keep one step ahead of the relentless, merciless, ever-churning grinder of capitalism. Which leads to too many people succumbing to Deaths of Despair, with opioid overdose.
	♥ 8:56am TDK60: Oh, this is just a fill-in today. Thanks Brian.
	♥ 8:58am Brian D: Well, that's about it for me. Thank you all for joining me. Jim the Poet will be filling in for me tonight/tomorrow from 3 am to 6am. I'll be back in this time slot next Saturday, and "Bad Animals" moves to Monday nights at 8 pm JC time. Stay safe and have a great week.
	8:58am toorushed: Great set! Thank you!
	⚡ ♥ 8:58am Michael of Cologne: Thanks, Brian
	♥ 8:58am PaulRobeson1923: THE KINKS
	♥ 8:58am Re6ecca: Great show!!!
	⚡ ♥ 8:58am fred: Thanks Brian!
	♥ 8:58am StringOFperils: Thank you. Have a good weekend.
	♥ 8:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for this current program, Brian!
	♥ 9:00am WR: Thank you! Brian! Onward!

	7:24am Buddha of Suburbia: Yeah, they said they just have to put in a new screen. Either it was on too long or it got wet. Insurance covers it so that's good. And I finally got my Honda out of the autoshop. Oh no!!! I love Koi fish.

	7:26am Buddha of Suburbia: Brian D, great stuff this morning! Glad I tuned in.

	7:28am Buddha of Suburbia: Is this Fenne Lily? I met her after she opened up for someone in Providence. We hung out for hours.
	7:29am Buddha of Suburbia: Remember Dale, I sent you the photos. I was on cloud nine. She even gave me her cell number, but I never had the guts to call.
	⚡ ♥ 7:31am dale: ↳ Buddha of Suburbia @7:29 maybe your phone blew up because she was trying to call YOU.
	7:34am Buddha of Suburbia: Ha Dale! Nah, that was when I owned a cheapskate Metro PC phone. I'm an I-phone girl now. I love Dylan. I gave this huge Dylan poetry/lyric book to an ex boyfriend. I shouldn't have done that.

	7:45am Cooh John: Sounds like a cross current. Off to work. See you next week.
	⚡ ♥ 7:47am Brian in UK: Hello Brian & weekend folks.
	7:47am Buddha of Suburbia: I'm gonna get going. Great show. I'm considered a chatroom menace because I talk too much and say "hi" to everyone. Thanks for waking up so early and treating us to this feast of easy listening music. It's delightful!
	7:47am Juli: Still sick. Must go to training 8-1
	⚡ ♥ 7:49am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Crazy Horse Is Alive" by "Roxy Gordon" Good to hear Roxy on a show that is not Doug Schulkind's. (not sure if that is grammatically correct)
	7:50am Juli: Oooooof Sickness hurts
	7:50am Claire from Montclair: Good Saturday morning!
	7:50am ?: Isn't the point of a "chatt board" to chat? :)
	7:50am Toothgrinder Tom: I wonder what will happen to those Chinese people who dug a hole in the Great Wall to make a ‘shortcut’ for their convenience. Firing squad at dawn? Not that they don’t deserve it but …
	⚡ ♥ 7:52am dale: ↳ Song: "Air Ride" by "The Violet Mine" violet mine really must have liked the pretenders.
	7:53am Buddha of Suburbia: Hope you feel better Juili. Bye Spandau Dallet! I thought that was Chrissy Hynde with the Pretenders. They totally stole their sound. Not dool, Violet Mine. Get your own sound. Dale, ha!

	♥ 8:04am WR: Not sure I was informed there was going to be "jazz". Likely sure information is distributed on a need to know basis. Hello Brian & folks.
	♥ 8:06am Brian D: ↳ @8:03 I had a boss tell me once, "The only rule is there are no rules." Then he proceeded to institute a bunch of draconian rules. My only rule on the comments board is be kind to each other and appreciative of the artists making the music we're listening to.
	♥ 8:06am Brian D: ↳ WR @8:04 Hey WR. Sorry. More warning next time.
	♥ 8:09am WR: ↳ Brian D @8:06 Well stated. And also I appreciate your including Charles Gayle in the program.

	8:32am pp: 3 times played as Smashmouth, 4 as "smash mouth". always need to check variations as search is not AI aware.
	♥ 8:33am Brian D: ↳ pp @8:32 Huh. Thanks PP!
	♥ 8:33am TDK60: I've never heard of Smash Mouth. I'm so out of touch. Is it possible some people are more upset about tennis disruptions than the actual climate crisis? Really?! There WILL be more disruption....
	8:34am pp: you're welcome. search is so comprehensive that your play is already included in the set of 4 plays!
	♥ 8:35am Megaroni: Happy Caturday Currents))):)!

	♥ 8:37am Brian D: ↳ Megaroni @8:35 Thank you, Megaroni!
	♥ 8:37am Brian D: ↳ fred @8:36 In my case, two out of three ain't bad.
	8:38am bobobob plasticland: Nice Show ...!!!!!
	8:39am pp: I confuse Smash Mouth with Offspring and Sublime, kind of cookie cutter stuff perfected by PhDs
	⚡ ♥ 8:46am Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ: I miss Kitty Corner, but I'm liking the program. Don't tell Ken about the jazz tho.
	♥ 8:48am Brian D: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 Thank you, Peter. Kitty Corner, I believe, will return Monday the 18th.
	♥ 8:50am WR: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 which reminds me, I've already forgotten the new time slot for Bad Animals. Oh, Mondays at 8PM for 1 hour. oh, Dan Bodah is off the schedule....
	8:50am rich from angleton: Brian - so great listening to you live instead of on the archive. great show as always!!!
	⚡ ♥ 8:50am fred: ↳ Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ @8:46 Maybe the new schedule will confuse Inspector Bongo for a while

	8:52am bobobob: infact alot like Eno
	♥ 8:55am radioronan: Thanks for the Bad Animal fill-in Brian! Cheers!
	♥ 8:56am Zinn The Mood: Great show! Capitalism is inescapable, so they say. Most of our interactions have become commodified; it’s consumerism instead of community; I Me Mine; social media replaces gathering in person (who has the time anyway - gotta keep working to keep up with the price-gouging and the Joneses). Keep shopping is the mantra. It’s no wonder that alienation and isolation set in, while trying to keep one step ahead of the relentless, merciless, ever-churning grinder of capitalism. Which leads to too many people succumbing to Deaths of Despair, with opioid overdose.
	♥ 8:56am TDK60: Oh, this is just a fill-in today. Thanks Brian.
	♥ 8:58am Brian D: Well, that's about it for me. Thank you all for joining me. Jim the Poet will be filling in for me tonight/tomorrow from 3 am to 6am. I'll be back in this time slot next Saturday, and "Bad Animals" moves to Monday nights at 8 pm JC time. Stay safe and have a great week.
	8:58am toorushed: Great set! Thank you!
	⚡ ♥ 8:58am Michael of Cologne: Thanks, Brian
