Listener comments!

Sat. 1/19/13 11:03am AZ Dave:

After the recent NFL hirings and firings, nineteen percent of head coaches are Mikes.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:09am Green Mountain Man Mark:

The Kool Aide pitcher guy that would bust through walls and such was way cooler than the Hawaiian Punch character.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:12am glenn:

seriously, why doesn't somebody take all the various "truthers" out to the back yard and beat some brains into them?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:13am Mike East:

doin laundry and commenting with a baby in my arms. your program gets a star for sure

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:16am glenn:

your avatar picture should be a big pile of dirty laundry :)

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:17am Mike East:

not having to do math makes it that much easier!

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:18am Mike East:

@Glenn a good idea but I just put the last load in. the baby is cuter anyway

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:19am Jay/London:

yeah Mike east so much better ... looks like you are very young

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:20am dale:

i have a cassette of gene with melba montgomery. if i remember right it's sadly forgettable

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:22am Green Mountain Man Mark:

Why do some of our names appear in red and others in blue?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:24am Michael Shelley:

Some are links that click to open your profile - I think

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:24am Mike East:

I think it appears a different color if you have viewed someone's profile today, gmmm

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:25am glenn:

no, it depends on if you've looked at that person's profile or not.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:25am Green Mountain Man Mark:

@M E Oh! that makes sense.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:27am Green Mountain Man Mark:

@glenn-yup that's it.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:31am Moammar:

Sat. 1/19/13 11:40am dave:

like BS to me.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:40am Parq:

Ah, that first cup of coffee and number one hits. G'morning, all.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:41am glenn:

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:42am Michael Shelley:

Post it here!

Sat. 1/19/13 11:42am BigJay:

The new phrase for me today is Epistemic Closure which is a kind of closed-mindedness caused by listening to only to like minded opinions. i.e Fox News

Sat. 1/19/13 11:42am Sean T.:

Mike, there is a guy with a skateboard store on East 11th street who has devoted half of the space to a pinball arcade. Pretty cool setup, bring your daughter over and play some silver-ball. http://www.yelp.com/biz/reciprocal-nyc-new-york

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:43am Mike East:

@Tyler, I starred that one, too

good morning parq

Sat. 1/19/13 11:44am ahm:

screw bb kings

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:44am Parq:

Hi back atcha, Mike. I like your baboo. Mine left for work about 40 minutes ago.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:45am Parq:

I dunno about anybody else, but I think of the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs list as everything I listen to FMU to get away from.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:46am ScottC:

please study the events and prosecutions surrounding the program of terror known as "Gladio" before you talk about Newtown. Everybody should be familiar with the political tool "Strategy Of Tension" In short the Red Brigade were not left but right and the ultimate effect was to replace the Italian Gov with a regime more acceptable toe DC then a bunch of socialists.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:48am glenn:

exystence.net...

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:50am glenn:

please, if you think that the newtown shootings are some vast conspiracy you need to give your head a shake.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:52am ScottC:

Please Google "Gladio" and study up on it. This is very important to understand why people are thinking about conspiracy. Open your mind to all possibilities.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:52am Jason from Huntsville:

The studios in Muscle Shoals were for sale a few years back. I'm not sure what happened with that.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:53am Sean T.:

OK just reading the beginning of the Carol Kaye review and I immediately wonder if anyone knows how I could try to track down what musicians might be playing on a Lalo Schifrin composed bit of score for the old Mission Impossible series. The track is called "Tape Machine" from an episode called "Underground." You can listen to it here:
http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/Underground+Tape+Machine/32oTHd?src=5
Any ideas geniuses?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:53am glenn:

riiiiiiiiiiigggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhtttttttttttttttttt.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:53am Moammar:

Please Google "mental health care" to find someone to treat your evident paranoia.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:56am Parq:

Reading about the Manti Te’o flap. Being extremely not a sports fan, I had never heard of him until friends on Facebook started talking about this fake-girlfriend stuff. I'm still not sure I understand what actually happened.

Sat. 1/19/13 11:56am ScottC:

it just takes a little courage - come on you can push those keys-
G-L-A-D-I-O

Sat. 1/19/13 11:56am Moammar:

This LP version sounds about a full step higher than the version I have. Maybe Jimmy was wearing exceptionally tight undies that day.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:57am glenn:

i suggest reading up on occam's razor.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 11:57am Belmondo:

Great Limbo version; Love it!

Sat. 1/19/13 12:00pm Moammar:

Speaking of Jimmy Cliff, I have a soft spot for this clip of him from the dawn of time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRUuSzhNigo

Sat. 1/19/13 12:01pm ScottC:

@WTF any person who really looks at GLADIO and understands the implications won't need to ask that question

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:04pm Parq:

How is it that Michael's playilist, out of all of them, always gets hijacked for these Washington Square soapbox debates?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:04pm glenn:

maybe gladio is smersh for the 21st century

Sat. 1/19/13 12:05pm ScottC:

@WTF OK. The implications of truly understanding GLADIO are that western governments (NATO) will kill a lot of people in terror attacks for political advantage. it's a nasty business but there it is. This is not in dispute anywhere but in the US.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:05pm James:

You're wasting your time ScottC. They can't see the lizard people like we can.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:06pm glenn:

i'll go further - anybody who believes in gladio is batshit crazy.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:06pm Moammar:

Little-known fact: Jimmy Cliff was a stay-behind SMERSH agent. Those white go-go boots in the video are in fact shoe phones. Play `Bongo Man' backward to hear the truth!

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:06pm Michael Shelley:

ScottC - do you believe the Newton shooting were a hoax?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:07pm glenn:

really? because here in canada we don't believe in gladio.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:08pm ScottC:

believe me - I grieve for my country - my world because it is TARGET AFRICA now. we are now in the process of re-colonizing Africa and nobody gives a shit.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:08pm James:

Cliff's Vietnam has backmasked intel about the Gulf of Tonkin incident

Sat. 1/19/13 12:09pm Sean T.:

I was gonna start bashing the insensitivity to historical architecture exhibited by The Kool Aid Pitcher man so championed by the Green Mountain Man, but dont wanna start another pointless diatribe here. So let's talk about music. Any ideas on those Mission Impossible studio musicians?

Sat. 1/19/13 12:09pm ScottC:

I know that people died there but other then that I question everything.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:10pm Juke Joint Jonny:

Michael, you got a BIG thumbs up from the wife for playing Gary Valentine just now.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:11pm ScottC:

our world

Sat. 1/19/13 12:14pm Sean T.:

I thought they were singing "backhoe Bill"

Sat. 1/19/13 12:16pm Moammar:

This version of Vietnam Blues compares favorably to the Dave Dudley version. How sad is it I know two versions of this?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:21pm Parq:

Moammar, that's not sad, that's WFMU. We're the only community I know where Jimmy Cross's "I Want My Baby Back" is considered a mainstream classic.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:21pm Frank:

Actually, Punchy, the Hawaiian Punch mascot, is a symbol of American imperialism and the oppression of indigenous peoples. And "Rockin' Sydney" is code for the upcoming US invasion of Australia. It's all true. Hey, how about a nice Hawaiian punch?

Sat. 1/19/13 12:22pm Scott S.:

There's a difference between being open-minded and uncritically buying into every batcrap conspiracy theory that comes along, which is exactly what the Sandy Hook "truther" lunacy is. Maybe this will help: http://www.salon.com/2013/01/18/your_comprehensive_answer_to_every_sandy_hook_conspiracy_theory/

Sat. 1/19/13 12:22pm Uke Goldberg:

Anyone going to be on the National Mall this Monday?

Sat. 1/19/13 12:22pm sue:

Female listening and as always enjoying the show

Sat. 1/19/13 12:23pm Phelger Nank:

I'm always down with a little Jonathan...bout time I went to see him again.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:23pm Silvia:

Hey Mike! I love Los Brincos. Now you have a female! Also Jonathan Richman, claro.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:24pm Parq:

Hey guys, there's a girl here! Sue, could you fix us a sandwich?

Sat. 1/19/13 12:24pm ken in denver:

Jonathin sings! In praise of Big Government!

Sat. 1/19/13 12:26pm sue:

As I tell my kids. I don't do lunch.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:27pm Moammar:

Not a female, but certainly a big fan.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:27pm glenn:

call it a breakfast sammich.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:31pm sue:

Noon on the East Coast. Not even brunch time.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:31pm ScottC:

@Scott S I know how hard it is to wrap your head around this stuff but I have studied this area of political terror for 30yrs and there are things that just happen and those things are undeniable - Just ask Gary Webb.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:31pm Sean T.:

I've got this in my jukebox as the B-side of "Strokin" it's always worth a quarter.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:34pm Jay/London:

first heard clarence carter on a 8 track great song

Sat. 1/19/13 12:35pm Scott S.:

ScottC, there is a difference between acknowledging that conspiracies take place and reflexively believing that everything is a conspiracy. The Sandy Hook truther nonsense is ridiculous and has been soundly debunked (read the linked Salon piece), and your insistence that it has a basis in reality discredits whatever other claims you make, regardless of their actual merit.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:39pm ScottC:

@Scott S I am only responding to the question of why anybody could belive that Newtown was hoax. I vae given everybody 2 good examples of why a lot of people are questing this - GLADIO and GARY WEBB - study these or remain a virgin.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:41pm glenn:

as the lawyers would ask - cui bono? absolutely nobody benefits from the killings at newtown.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:42pm Scott S.:

ScottC, your claims make no sense. You insist that, because one thing may have happened, the other thing definitely happened. This is nonsense. Again, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CREDIBLE EVIDENCE to support this Sandy Hook nonsense, and you are just silly to continue to insist that it has a basis in reality.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:42pm ScottC:

@Glenn Except police agencies who ALWAYS want a franchise on violence.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:44pm glenn:

maybe scottc is really miss/sweet/cheri in disguise.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:44pm ScottC:

@Scott S again - I am only responding to the question of why so many people are questioning this - if it "quacks like a duck" and so forth...

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:46pm Ike:

Some people desperately want life to be dramatic and exciting, even though they don't always realize it. So they believe in, or invent, these complicated explanations for relatively simple events. But the simpler explanation is usually the better one.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:47pm Jay/London:

lovely song love her voice Esther Phillps :)

Sat. 1/19/13 12:47pm ScottC:

@glenn are you saving yourself for marriage?

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:48pm glenn:

exactly, ike. occam's razor. not occam's toothbrush.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:48pm Michael Shelley:

that makes no sense - the vast vast majority of people are not questioning this

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:49pm glenn:

that's easily the stupidest question i've ever been asked by a wfmu listener type.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:51pm ScottC:

@Michael Shelly Oh really - who said anything about "the vast majority" A lot of people are questioning this an that is a fact.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:52pm Scott S.:

Again, http://www.salon.com/2013/01/18/your_comprehensive_answer_to_every_sandy_hook_conspiracy_theory/

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:53pm glenn:

and those people are morons.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:53pm Michael Shelley:

I'm saying it is not quacking like a duck

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:53pm glenn:

or as carl hiassen would call them - subliterate ratfuckers.

Sat. 1/19/13 12:53pm Chris from Brooklyn:

Hello world! Quite the link-o-rama today Michael and yet another great show. Kudos.

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:54pm Michael Shelley:

THANKS Chris!

Sat. 1/19/13 12:56pm ScottC:

@glenn or as James W. Douglass would call them - an american tragedy

♥ Sat. 1/19/13 12:58pm glenn:

i emphasize SUBLITERATE.

Sat. 1/19/13 1:00pm ScottC:

so when the spoon they are using to feed this shit to you areyou just going to open your mouth wider?

Sat. 1/19/13 4:49pm Bob:

Discovering that Boston's "More Than A Feeling" made the top 500 songs of all time is more shocking than the truther stuff.
