What if we all made a plea- would you stay, would you? please?

Mon. 11/23/09 9:35am Ike:

Glenn, the esteemed Bob W. is taking over. He must imitate B. Walker IN EVERY WAY from now on! He must even pretend to know nothing about hockey! Ha ha ha. Yeah right.

Mon. 11/23/09 9:36am Ike:

YES, WEEP FOR US. WEEP! Damn you! Our souls shall PERISH in the withering glare of the harsh Monday morning light without your great musical selections to sustain us!

Mon. 11/23/09 9:38am Mac:

Your not leaving... your just moving (sounds appropriate for a cyclist)

Mon. 11/23/09 9:38am dc pat:

Aaahhh, I was getting sick of all the great music, fascinating interviews, and killer comics anyway....

Mon. 11/23/09 9:39am Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn:

BW - it sounds like fun. good luck. you will be missed in the mornings, though. in the immortal words of the merry pranksters, "nothing lasts."

Mon. 11/23/09 9:39am Hugo:

jenn we can always ponder together! don't be sad

Mon. 11/23/09 10:13am LizGig:

I am also disappointed on your move, although I wish you the best. When you're on it's bedtime here, so I might never hear the new show unless I've a project deadline. I'm sorry because you're my second-favourite WFMU DJ. But I hope the new show is equally fantastic and fun for you! Will you have a newsletter? If so, please transfer my subscription to your new newsletter.

Mon. 11/23/09 10:32am Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn:

Is this like the last episode of the Prisoner? Will you actually reveal the Theory of Everything in the last hour of the show while the Beatles play All You Need Is Love?

Mon. 11/23/09 10:32am Tom ( The Bactrian Support NetWork ):

Long as you end with the Jon Richman Tune BW.... and I love all that comes before it too !!!!

Mon. 11/23/09 10:48am jt:

Yoko Omo eats dog food

Mon. 11/23/09 10:51am stingy d:

can i just say... i keep reading that everyone loves this new lady gaga video/song.... but, real talk, that shit is mad euro-world party to me man. shit is for blockheads. it would be good for a ea sports soccer video game. on 1997 trying to be 2001 shit.

Mon. 11/23/09 10:54am td:

you're woooonderful your show is so great the only thing i love about mondays.

you cost me so much money at the record shop. Thank you!

Mon. 11/23/09 10:55am Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn:

I heard that Bush left a turd in the bottom left hand drawer of the Resolute Desk. Boy is Obama going to be surprised when he finds that. Maybe you go that route, BW?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:01am bw:

dum dum! heh

bob W is Tuff!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:05am Cecile:

Good morning, all.

I have to confess I'm starting to like Mika.

Don't hate me, but boyfriend is fabuslash.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:06am Cecile:

bw, why the move?
And I do like bob W a lot, but why? Why?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:08am bw:

cecile - the plan has always been to go back to doin anhour talkish show.. which is what I used to do before I came to WFMU

I do hope you tune in!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:09am Cecile:

I will try. It's usually my commute time, but I can catch the archives.

You wouldn't be able to play anything from the new Mika album would you? Thought not!

If you've got some Harry Nilsson (shockingly enough, Mika's spirit guide) that would also do...

Mon. 11/23/09 11:11am LizGig:

But you do music so well!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:11am Stuart Troutman:

What is the attraction to the music of Kity Daisy & Lewis?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:12am Cecile:

it sounds kind of cute and fun, and didn't make me turn my radio off?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:13am PK:

This guy sounds a lot like George Jones.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:16am Cecile:

When I read Eddie Fischer's autobiography, Connie Francis was one of his favorite ex-wives.

I wanted to take a decontamination shower after reading that book. And I like celeb autobios!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:16am Carmichael:

For the final time, Good morning BW and Walker-ites.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:18am Carmichael:

Oh and I second the Nilsson request. Even something from the lovely tribute album For the Love of Harry would be great.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:18am michael Van Laar:

Really enjoying the show!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:18am annie:

morning carm!.. and cecile.. monday just won't be the same.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:19am Carmichael:

Hi Annie. How's the garden?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:22am annie:

too damn wet carm, too damn wet... another year like this and i might just quit.. all that work to tend and coddle seedlings, only to see then drown and rot in the mud.. pretty discouraging.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:25am dc pat:

I was gonna say, sounds like Eugene.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:26am bw:

the name gives it away!

Mon. 11/23/09 11:27am Cecile:

sounds like you need to build a greenhouse, annie. In addition to everything else you do. ;D

Mon. 11/23/09 11:29am dc pat:

beck and his pals are pretty great....still not sure about plane old 'beck'

Mon. 11/23/09 11:31am Wendy del Formaggio:

Wow, this Kelley Stoltz song is making my morning. This is SO GOOD.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:31am annie:

i have to figure out how to dig better gullies and deeper paths.. put up hoops over the rows, build a huge pond , .... etc etc.. my bones ache just thinking about it.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:33am Cecile:

Where do I find it?

Mon. 11/23/09 11:35am dc pat:

Mon. 11/23/09 11:47am Parq:

When "Affection" plays, I expect all the comment regulars to sing along. And don't think I won't know if you don't.

Mon. 11/23/09 11:48am annie:

Mon. 11/23/09 11:49am annie:

Mon. 11/23/09 11:50am Cecile:

Mon. 11/23/09 11:59am still b/p:

On Monday mornings now, my TOE will be painfully stubbed.

Mon. 11/23/09 3:40pm Erik:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
(Wail of despair too from this member of the archive mob)
(much interphonic love, farewell!)

Mon. 11/23/09 4:03pm Erik:

Oh wait, you're changing time slots... Phew!

Sat. 1/30/10 10:19pm guy:

Good show mate. It reminds me of listening to Joe Frank and CAN in Montana. Did we listen to Joe Frank together on Main Street? I remember listening to a lot of Tom Waits and Nick Cave with rum and cokes in our hands.
