3:14pm sFrances from VA:

Hello all!!

3:15pm Cecile:

if he were my pastor, I'd still be a practicing...something.

♥ 3:15pm DCE:

run through them but don't run them through

♥ 3:15pm Ike:

"I'm coming out of the chute hot" sounds pretty dirty, CP.

3:16pm dale:

central valley by woodbury commons

♥ 3:18pm SeanG:

No place I'd rather be than right here

3:20pm Listening Out There:

....great that you got a pledge from Everett, WA. It's close to Seattle, where I'm at....

3:20pm common:

clay pigeon is a comic genius.

3:22pm em-o:

Common, are you Clay? Shouldn't fabio and clay be on?

3:24pm Clay:

Fabio needs you. I can tell he feels anxiety and needs love. Express it in your comments.

3:25pm em-o:

Clay, I'm sure he appreciates your saying that!

3:25pm sFrances from VA:

OK, so I donated $ for a YoLaTengo request this morning that got merged as part of the Can medley...I can only do a "half a mouse" pledge & was saving the rest for when the Dusty Show starts...(my WFMU gateway show)
But I Love you too, Fabio!

3:26pm Cecile:

Cedric the Entertainer, Kimora Simmons and Nelly.

If not curling, then five pin bowling?

♥ 3:30pm Uncle Michael:

Hello.

3:30pm andymorphic:

guelph jazz fest right fab!

♥ 3:31pm Uncle Michael:

If I knew this show was going to open with the best song ever recorded I might have come on time.

3:31pm Cecile:

You play a lot of sausage party music.

And I'm tapped out with pledges.

♥ 3:31pm Iggy:

I'm the Shanee from Brandon that pledged and I'm a lady!

3:31pm em-o:

St. Louis is also known for its jazz tradition, unique BBQ, and great antiques.

3:31pm Cecile:

you do that too well, Fabs.

♥ 3:32pm DCE:

Uncle Michael, be here EVERY WEEK at 3pm for that!

♥ 3:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Psych/kraut/noise/avant isn't famous for its appeal to the ladies. And god bless my wife's infinite patience, when I crank on the ol' hi-fi...

♥ 3:33pm DCE:

"can"...such a positive word!

♥ 3:33pm MD:

Clay and Fabio....."The odd Couple!"

♥ 3:33pm DCE:

Mrs DCE has lost her patience with my listening habits...bless Mrs Turnip Druid!

3:34pm Cecile:

hhahahahahaha

If you gave me a ride home at six, CLay, I'd stay for the whole thing.

♥ 3:34pm Uncle Michael:

@DCE It's the open every week?

♥ 3:34pm DCE:

more of a "Gennesee-can"

♥ 3:35pm MD:

":do da do da doooo...do do-dow do do doooo do!"

♥ 3:35pm DCE:

be here next week and you shall see!

3:35pm Cecile:

yup, uncle michael, every week!

♥ 3:35pm SeanG:

that bossa nova was sweet

3:35pm hamburger:

Paperhouse!!

3:35pm em-o:

Clay is very nice but he can end up being condescending. Where is "common"?

♥ 3:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Yeh, Clay, I'd dig ye more often, but you're perfectly in that PM subway time-slot. Not even the FMU app can penetrate those dark corridors.

♥ 3:36pm Uncle Michael:

I can dance the giant way.

3:37pm Cecile:

even in double time?

3:38pm hamburger:

listenable :D

♥ 3:39pm DCE:

Bas is rocking the pledges, man

♥ 3:39pm Bas NL:

♥ :)

♥ 3:40pm Uncle Michael:

Hi ho...you know it.

♥ 3:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

I'll extend my pledge total during Pidge Time if the Corpulent Britisher can do a fill-in soon.

3:41pm Cecile:

Fab, does your premium have some of the ElgalandVargaland guy's music on it?

♥ 3:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

YES, FABIO: that DRONE ZONE premium is still a favorite.

3:43pm Cecile:

hahahahahahahaha

♥ 3:43pm Bas NL:

"I dig your complexity.."

♥ 3:43pm Ike:

Fabio's premiums = A+

3:46pm Cecile:

Play something from That Dirty Clown!

♥ 3:46pm Ken From Hyde Park:

It's the end of failure as we know it.

3:47pm Maryy:

Fabio is so neat and his show is splendidd. I would pledge but have been tapped out (includes a pre-pledge).

3:47pm Van in DC:

Almost moo time

♥ 3:48pm SeanG:

the goal must be reached by any means necessary

3:48pm egnekn:

it's OK Fabio, you don't have to play Sparks today. But maybe one day in the future...

♥ 3:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Fabio on FAH!

3:52pm sFrances from VA:

& then Angus joined AC/DC

3:52pm KevinBK:

What I love about free form radio, the on air personalities. Totally enjoying clay and Fabiola right now. ALL Commercial radio has about 2 different kind of djs

3:53pm QuiltMaker:

"Calling card to cool country" look at that alliteration Clay Pigeon!!

♥ 3:53pm MD:

"YOUR CALLING CARD TO COOL COUNTRY!!!"
THAT WAS SO GREAT!!!!!!!!

3:54pm common:

i always thought is was "had a cold salad!"

3:54pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

apparently it's: "Matty told Hatty about a thing she saw."

3:55pm QuiltMaker:

don't trust wiki

3:55pm sFrances from VA:

I really wish the live stream video was on for this 4 hour extravaganza!

♥ 3:56pm MD:

no...Common IS RIGHT...It is "had a cold salad!"

3:57pm QuiltMaker:

"Hurricane Sandy was a major blow"... Clay is ON today

3:58pm sFrances from VA:

Portland is the best, that's why I'm moving back there again, for the 3rd and final time: I'll never leave again!

♥ 3:58pm Caryn:

"Calista Flockhart knees" and "blankie" in a matter of seconds... Clay is a frigging comic genius!

♥ 3:59pm tim from champaign:

Clay got hate mail for bustin Fab's musical taste chops? Probably from a weenie who has no sense of humor about music.

3:59pm MDGUZ:

Clay Pigeon is the greatest. if he was on all day each show would have 1000% of their goal

3:59pm chocolate monk:

did you mungs start early?? let the insanity begin.

3:59pm Green Mountain Man Mark:

keep the simian line open for pledges. Hope it does not go downs.

♥ 3:59pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Strength Thru Failure is the ultimate wig-flipper. Behold!

4:00pm QuiltMaker:

I like how Fabio coolly pretends like he doesn't know anything of certain mainstream bands.

4:01pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

day light savings..

♥ 4:01pm tim from champaign:

Never caught the MacLise/Bob Seger connection until Clay pointed it out. It's totally obvious on this cut.

♥ 4:02pm SeanG:

the cow is doing its kegel exercises

♥ 4:02pm Carmichael:

Good day, 'Thoners. And aloha to the Dynamic duo! Let's all get on the money train!

4:03pm Maryy:

Enchanting tune.

♥ 4:03pm Julie:

more than half way there! Give Fabio strength through success, give a call 1-800-989-9368

4:04pm Cecile:

is the flash stream down?

4:04pm QuiltMaker:

Fabio... play that softcore porn background music that works so well with your show.

♥ 4:04pm tim from champaign:

I appreciate the weird beard sounds that happen on Strength Through Failure every week. I also appreciate Fabio's film info. Helps me feel connected to a larger world.

♥ 4:05pm SeanG:

what's that bed music, Fabio?

♥ 4:05pm Mike East:

no, Cecile.

4:06pm Maryy:

I think Fab exercises a lot of self-restraint with Clay, which is really nice. Clay says a lot of insulting things, even if he is joking. I personally don't dig humor that has a lot of digs.

4:06pm Cecile:

I got it to work.

♥ 4:07pm Carmichael:

LA sucks, but thanks for the pledge!

4:07pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

What track was that by Angus Maclise?

4:07pm Maryy:

Good on ya' Cecile.

4:07pm QuiltMaker:

I don't think Clay realizes his digs.

4:07pm chocolate monk:

ack away, lighten up, Clay is lover!

4:08pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

Clay knows exactly what he's doing.

4:08pm Maryy:

Yeah but he's not stupid... I think it is his shtick with Fabio.

4:08pm QuiltMaker:

the FCC fines will cancel out all the pledges this hour

4:08pm Cecile:

I think Clay gently jerks Fabio's chain. As Ken said, Clay makes Fabio adorable.

♥ 4:09pm Ike:

Hey Caryn, re: your comment during Faye's show: They have a separate 24-hr. stream. You can experience its mundane blahs anytime. :/ Well, anytime except Saturdays!

4:09pm Cecile:

one-note samba

♥ 4:09pm Carmichael:

Much the way Andy makes Ken adorable.

4:10pm chocolate monk:

ack i missed the first hour, god damn daylights saving time.

4:10pm Cecile:

I think that is a completely different adorable dynamic.

4:10pm Maryy:

Hi Cecile, I wouldn't call it gentle but I guess it does bring out Fabio's cuteness sometimes...

♥ 4:11pm Caryn:

@Ike: yeah, but see, that's why I would probably prefer to see them only on special occasions like now, with a band and dancing and celebrating. And a lot of my fave shows are on at the same time.

♥ 4:11pm Julie:

The bromance has a real love/hate dynamic, but mostly love <3

4:13pm Cecile:

Fabio went to school with crazy delinquents, so Clay is probably not a big deal.

4:13pm QuiltMaker:

The true emotions only come out during hurricane coverage

♥ 4:13pm Carmichael:

I think you nailed it, Julie.

4:14pm Cecile:

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
oh, clay.

4:15pm Maryy:

I think Clay just does not "get" Fabio and his taste.

4:16pm Maryy:

I think Fabio would never choose to hang out with Clay.

4:16pm Andy in RI:

So this is what building a pussy sounds like?

4:16pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

@Julie, would you mind checking into what that beautiful track by Angus MacLise was that Fabio played? When you're not placing a ruler between Fab and Clay, to ensure that they are not wound up in the other's loving embrace? ;-) Thank you, in advance.

♥ 4:16pm Julie:

And Fabio doesn't get Clay's taste. Doesn't mean they aren't close friends :)

4:17pm Clay:

Fabio and I do hang out. I gave him a sealed copy of El Topo for his birthday!

4:17pm Cecile:

Clay has weirder taste than you might think.
A lot of it is a schtick. Even though he geniunely likes Britny Fox...

4:17pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

He IS hanging out with Clay!

4:17pm Maryy:

Obviously I don't know but I bet Fabio gets Clay's tastes, he just wouldn't share them.

♥ 4:17pm SeanG:

it's entertainment, don't overthink it

4:17pm QuiltMaker:

I didn't get Fabio for the longest time... until I realized it's all about stimulating sounds to Fabio and not so much the music itself.

4:17pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

that's why Clay is so interesting--is it schtick or is it real??

4:18pm Cecile:

They go on double-dates with their spouses!

♥ 4:18pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Now you know what to get me for MY birthday, Pigeon!

4:19pm Maryy:

@cecile---oh yeah??

4:19pm Cecile:

Thunderbolt Pagoda is a great band in Mpls, named after this song.

4:19pm Maryy:

Signing off amigos. Have fun!

4:19pm Cecile:

Yeah! Check into the archives!

4:21pm QuiltMaker:

I think Fabio got more guarded around Clay after Clay got him to tell the story of his GF having a 3-some in Europe on the air

♥ 4:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

The Jodorowsky DVD box set came with the Topo & Holy Mountain soundtracks on CDs, but that stuff was born for vinyl.

♥ 4:23pm Mutant:

Ha, I just logged in to see a TP reference - thanks Cecile!

4:25pm sFrances from VA:

We need a sound byte of Clay saying Harry Pussy.

4:25pm Cecile:

my pleasure, mutes!

♥ 4:25pm DCE:

way to linger over those briquettes, Fab.

♥ 4:26pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

If they do say "sack-town," they should stop immediately.

4:27pm QuiltMaker:

Punani

4:28pm Cecile:

Play Action by the Sweet!

♥ 4:28pm DCE:

so now that it's been given away, no one will have reason to say pussy on the air anymore

4:29pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

oh I dunno about that DCE, I can think of one or two reasons...

4:31pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

HA!

4:31pm Cecile:

STREETCAR

♥ 4:31pm Ike:

AAC+ and MP3 streams down, or just me?

4:32pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

Soak Fabio with pledges! 1-800-989-9368.

4:32pm johnforz:

seems to be down

4:32pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

Yacht rockers do it better!

4:32pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

C-money did I win something from DK?

♥ 4:32pm βrian:

Mp3 stream is working for me.

4:33pm KevinBK:

Sing another clay

♥ 4:33pm Andrew Waterloo:

@Cheri, I believe you won the Motorhead

4:33pm Cecile:

try restarting, Ike. Flash went bad until I restarted.

4:34pm KevinBK:

32k is going

♥ 4:34pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

128 MP3 stream is fine over here.

4:34pm Liz Berg:

MP3 stream is a-ok on this end.

♥ 4:34pm Andrew Waterloo:

128K is going

♥ 4:34pm Julie:

the 128 is going

4:34pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

name check!!!

♥ 4:34pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

[formerly known as BSI] thanks, boss!

4:34pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

dc pat

4:34pm KevinBK:

90.1 is transmitting in montgomery, NY as well

♥ 4:35pm Julie:

Cheri, nice nickname there!

♥ 4:35pm Julie:

and it's PI day isn't it!

4:35pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

Thanks Andrew!! woohoo!!!

♥ 4:35pm DCE:

I never listen to this show!

4:35pm XPat of Leche de Noche:

actually "Babe" is a big PGH thing--all the locals say things like "That's punk rock, babe..."

♥ 4:36pm Ike:

It's back up now on my end.

4:36pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

Yes Julie, It's the best day of the year!

4:36pm Clay:

We need you AccuFailures! Pledge now. 800 989 9368 - wfmu.org

4:36pm northguineahills:

24 hours, and I'll supposedly learn my fate. If positive, retro-pledging will ensue.

♥ 4:37pm Julie:

I see people here without hearts, c'mon guys support Fabio you can pledge right over there!
<-----

4:37pm steve:

good luck ngh! really hope it works out for you

♥ 4:37pm Caryn:

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, NGH. Well, apart from when I'm typing. That's too hard with crossed fingers.

4:38pm Cecile:

what fate is that, ngh? Le job?

♥ 4:38pm DCE:

yeah ngh, if that's possible employment, may the universe be with you

4:38pm Cecile:

aw, DCE, I know you're out there...

4:38pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

NGH has a heart of gold, we know that.

♥ 4:39pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Solidarity, bruh!

4:39pm sFrances from VA:

Crossing my fingers as well, ngh! I start my job on Monday. I started my 1/2 Mouse pledge this morning w/a YLT request. The rest will be donated between 6-7!

4:40pm PiPi:

http://thisisnthappiness.com/post/45318444836/wife-of-pi

4:40pm QuiltMaker:

wow... both frances and CP have both joined the 9-5 world?

4:40pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

hahahahah that's loling me PiPi

4:41pm northguineahills:

domo arigato gasaimasu. I have to admit I'm sweating. They told me it's down to myself and one other candidate. They kept on asking me about my skills at ETL (extract, tranfer, load), and I had a friend coming to visit from Houston via Atlanta, and I was wondering why they were asking about my Atlanta skills (ATL). Hope I didn't wreck my chances.

♥ 4:41pm Julie:

80 minutes left and just over halfway there

4:42pm northguineahills:

W/ guaranteed salary, mouse + will be in order.

(friend was in flight during my teleconference interview).

♥ 4:42pm Caryn:

Have two jobs lined up I have to set up interviews with tomorrow, so hopefully I will be rejoining the workforce myself soon.

♥ 4:43pm Andrew Waterloo:

good luck Caryn

♥ 4:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

jeez. I'll have what NGH & Caryn are having. Maintaining with freelance & such, but that's no golden calf...

♥ 4:43pm DCE:

must be exhausting and nervewracking to go on interviews. I been L U C K Y.

4:43pm northguineahills:

w00t, Caryn!

4:43pm steve:

i cant stop pledging!

4:44pm Cecile:

awesome!

♥ 4:45pm Caryn:

@rev: well, both interviews are with non-profits taking care of the elderly. Think I'll make the same that I do being unemployed. But dammit, need something to do!

4:46pm steve:

freelancing is intense... when i hear someone say 9-5 i think, we work more like 12-12...

♥ 4:47pm Julie:

You know you want the Can!

4:47pm Cecile:

yay!

♥ 4:47pm Wendy del Formaggio:

I totally want the Can.

4:47pm smallybiggs:

clay sounds like big bird.

4:48pm northguineahills:

I haven't had a freelance gig since the fall, and most I did for less then my usual rate as they were for friends, doing startups, and I needed something to fit my resume for the time.

4:48pm hamburger:

that's not malcolm?>!

4:48pm QuiltMaker:

Fab will do anything during pledge time

4:48pm sFrances from VA:

The job I landed was in the morning where I had 2 interviews in one morning. 1st w/a place that I felt like I wouldn't want to work in. I was so glad that I enjoyed the 2nd interview & got the offer. I still had contracting gigs as back up options that I'd also interviewed well for on the phone. 9-5 means having great work/life boundaries, which I need...

♥ 4:48pm Uncle Michael:

Wendy, my new Mazda Zoom Zoom magazine has a nice article about a Vermont cheesemaker in it.

4:49pm 3d-nyc:

The Sylvester the cats' catchphrase; "Suffern succatash" was a snarky reference to
a popular book of the period titled "our Suffering Saviour"

4:49pm PiPi:

Grunt or diaphragmatic paroxysm? You decide!

♥ 4:49pm Caryn:

@ngh: my last freelance job was one week of work in January, for lower rates than usual.

4:50pm smallybiggs:

tell clay to say some big bird things please.

♥ 4:51pm Andrew Waterloo:

That is such an awesome boxset.

♥ 4:52pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Uncle Michael, is it Jasper Hill? There are many, many great cheesemakers here in VT. Our tiny state allegedly has the most artisan cheesemakers per capita. No disrespect to WI or CA, but theirs are mostly factory cheeses.

4:52pm dale:

$500 dude - you make me look bad! good on you...

4:53pm sFrances from VA:

Good luck w/jobs & interviews, Caryn!

4:53pm QuiltMaker:

Are you Wait-ting for the pig-eon

4:53pm Wayne Rriver:

This song is SO great. Don't know how I can stay seated.

♥ 4:54pm Uncle Michael:

@Wendy, I wish I had it in front of me.

♥ 4:54pm βrian:

Wendy, I'm from Wisconsin and I agree with you. (Used to live in VT.) Things are improving pretty quickly, though.

4:54pm Vicky:

Caryn, I can totally relate.

4:55pm dale:

WOOT!!!!!

♥ 4:55pm Andrew Waterloo:

donner maintenant

♥ 4:56pm βrian:

I wish there was more in the way of ripened cheeses.

4:56pm Vicky:

I love you Fabio!!!!!

4:56pm Cecile:

on the floor.

4:56pm QuiltMaker:

Clay... dale was in a grape nuts commercial... not hand soap commercial

4:56pm dale:

clay likes to bust on me. i'm a dude (not like a porn dude) and kyle's my beautiful younger trophy wife.

♥ 4:56pm Andrew Waterloo:

What's a good spot for dinner around Wawatosa, Wisconsin?

4:56pm Cecile:

Minnesota is getting some good artisan cheesemakers. I had a great triple creme cheese the other week.

4:56pm northguineahills:

I also owe the gf rent $ from months ago (a lot), and she's less then enthused about my lack of disposable income, And to be honest, it'll be nice to buy vinyl again. It would also be nice to see a doctor again (rarely took advantage when I had healthcare).

♥ 4:57pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Brian, you are right. Things are improving. Small-scale cheesemakers are popping up everywhere. Where in VT did you live? Burlington? I think every other person I meet who lived in VT lived in Burlington. haha.

♥ 4:58pm βrian:

In beautiful Monkton. Is Orb Weaver still making cheese?

♥ 4:59pm Caryn:

Thanks for the well wishes, people!

Now, what did I miss? Was in the kitchen making sandwiches (3rd day in a row eating nothing but... luckily now out of bread).

4:59pm Cecile:

yay DAVE

♥ 5:00pm Mutant:

Home of grunge, but from the land of Prince!

5:00pm Cheri 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028:

Queensryche lived on my street in Redmond.

5:00pm QuiltMaker:

Yardbirds

♥ 5:00pm Wendy del Formaggio:

I don't know Monkton. Yes, Orb Weaver is still making cheese, but I understand they are no longer selling to retail shops -- you can only buy direct. Not sure if it's true. I plan to find out in the next few months because I'd like to sell it at my shop. Mmm...

5:01pm QuiltMaker:

clay = quiet as a church mouse

5:02pm Cecile:

Rupture

♥ 5:02pm Andrew Waterloo:

Dave Mandl

5:02pm northguineahills:

Cecile beat me to it....

♥ 5:02pm Mutant:

Nice prize!

5:03pm Cecile:

that Wire subs is a fortune. It's like $80 a year last I checked

♥ 5:03pm tim from champaign:

Ha - I was just looking at The Wire's website when Fabio mentioned that some of his listeners read The Wire.

♥ 5:03pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Clay Pigeon is giving me the comic relief I need this stressful week. "Is that like Omni? Robotic vacuum cleaners?" His "innocent" questions and asides totally do it for me.

♥ 5:03pm Andrew Waterloo:

Dave Mandl has an article in last months issue, he interviews Little Annie/Annie Anxiety

5:03pm Cecile:

Audio Jockstrap is a good name for a band.

♥ 5:03pm cklequ:

That's a nice prize...
I've always been too much of a cheapskate to subscribe to Wire

5:03pm chocolate monk:

that dribbling gimp Kurt Gottschalk does some writing for wire. he is one of the better goons.

5:04pm northguineahills:

It's my annual bday gift from my parents. The gf is trying to figure out what to do to the stacks I have from 1996

Kurt occasionally does stuff for The Wire..

5:05pm Maryy:

Listen to Clay now, trashing Fabio's show.

♥ 5:05pm Andrew Waterloo:

I am subscribing for the first time. I actually read and get something out of it. But, yah the price is rather steep.

5:05pm Jack:

"audio jockstrap". I'm sorry I spewed. thanks fabio!

♥ 5:06pm Ike:

CP: "I'm the one who plays dreck. Somebody has to."

No they don't. Why? :P

5:06pm Maryy:

Scott should be Fab's co-host!!!

♥ 5:06pm tim from champaign:

Fortunately, my public library carries The Wire. Saves me some cash.

5:06pm Cecile:

hahahaha, Ike.
Clay is in rare form.

♥ 5:07pm Caryn:

That's gonna be a lucky person who wins that subscription. Same as tim, read The Wire at the library.

♥ 5:07pm cklequ:

@NGH My parents never know what to get me for my birthday. I'll have to drop some subtle hints this year... Thanks for the idea.

5:07pm Cecile:

get back to the sexytalk

♥ 5:08pm Ike:

Maryy, you take him too seriously. They are hilarious together and I enjoy hearing Fabio verbally smack Clay down. ;)

5:09pm northguineahills:

My college gf started the Wire gift, my mother actually takes notice of my activities when I visit for the holidays and offered to pick up the slack when I dropped said gf.

5:10pm Cecile:

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahashahahaaw

♥ 5:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Grunt from your happy-place.

♥ 5:10pm Mutant:

Lol

♥ 5:10pm Ike:

HA HA HA hee heh ROTFL

♥ 5:11pm SeanG:

Frangy loves the low voice

5:11pm Maryy:

Hey Ike, not sure if I agree with you. I don't enjoy hearing Clay knock Fabio's show as being esoteric, etc. There's already so much of exactly that kind of thing done in mainstream media and culture. I'm glad you enjoy it, to me it is not funny at all. FMU is a bastion for that to me and I can't tell if Clay is really joking.

♥ 5:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Nice track, this. Worthy of stapler eating. Magic Lantern-esque.

♥ 5:11pm Andrew Waterloo:

What I'm willing to donate to WFMU dwarfs what I pay for the Wire subscription

♥ 5:12pm Andrew Waterloo:

I think Clay is joking about it the same way most fans of the music joke about it.

♥ 5:13pm Julie:

Fabio obviously doesn't mind, he's plenty happy having Clay around.

5:14pm Cecile:

maryy, if you go to the archives and look up "That Dirty Clown" you will find Clay is as capable of making and understanding crazy, disturbing art as anyone Fabio plays.

♥ 5:14pm Ike:

Clay is joking. I couldn't tell at first either. It DOES get a little repetitive but Fabio holds his own. It's fun.

5:15pm KevinBK:

Jeremy earl from Warwick?

5:15pm dale:

warwick a couple of towns over from me in new hampton. stay away during the apple festival if you know what's good fer ya

5:15pm KevinBK:

Warwick is near sterling forest where the Ren fest is

5:16pm Cecile:

sexyvoice!

5:17pm Cecile:

sending me into hysterics.

5:17pm sFrances from VA:

Oh my, was Maryy the one who wrote the hate mail to Clay that was mentioned earlier?

♥ 5:17pm Mutant:

Clay is awesome!

♥ 5:17pm Julie:

The Cat t-shirt rules

♥ 5:18pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Getting hate-mail means YOU'VE MADE IT, baby.

5:18pm KevinBK:

Clay, my previous comments were for you

5:18pm QuiltMaker:

how do i get the Woof Moo "WF - MU" shirt?

5:18pm Cecile:

Just like Little Jackie Shane!

5:18pm sFrances from VA:

If it weren't for Clay's show, I wouldn't have found WFMU. And I like Fabio's show too, among many, many shows that I love on WFMU.

5:19pm KevinBK:

Dale, im in Montgomery today and originally from goshen. Hi

5:20pm dale:

just realized the panter tee is only in lime green - a bad color for my complexion

♥ 5:20pm Caryn:

@QuiltMaker: it's not currently swag, but you can buy one for 15 bucks from the WFMU store: store.wfmustore.org...

♥ 5:21pm Carmichael:

Fabio's shtick is that he's a world traveler and much more highbrow than the pedestrian Clay. I just heard him talk down his nose, asking, "You're from the Midwest, right?" It's all great fun.

5:21pm dale:

cheers, kevin!

5:21pm Cecile:

me, too dale. The color makes me look like my liver failed.

5:21pm Mike VL:

I just heard Fabio say "Hootie and the Blowfish". Check that one off the list...

5:22pm Droll:

The only Marathon Co-host pairing that seems genuinely frustrating is Irwin-Bethany, but that's only because it's Irwin. He's not malicious in any way, but lots of button-pressing, intentional and not.
At the end of the day: No harm, no foul.

5:22pm QuiltMaker:

@Caryn thanks... but the grey shirt is only available in women's XL or kids size :(

♥ 5:22pm Mutant:

Sploosh

♥ 5:23pm cklequ:

@Quiltmaker: I buy the white shirts and dye them.

5:24pm Rafer:

Ha! Thanks Clay! I'm changing my nickname to Rafer Madness right now. :)

5:25pm QuiltMaker:

good idea cklequ

♥ 5:25pm Carmichael:

Jackie Stewart hosted the Wide World of High Voices. Neil Young was a guest.

♥ 5:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

FWIW, i got the jackie reference and it sounded brilliant.

♥ 5:26pm tim from champaign:

Fab - Us hayseeds in the Midwest are waving our pitchforks at you. It's your fault Hee Haw went off the air, Fabio! Play some darn John Cougar for garsh sakes.

♥ 5:27pm Stanley:

Doctor - increase ze dosage!

♥ 5:27pm sugarwolf:

hi, KevinBK, I grew up in Goshen!

kinda cool to see local people loving WFMU!

♥ 5:28pm Uncle Michael:

Oh crap...the Jackie Stewart kills me.

♥ 5:28pm cklequ interor:

And i'm always amazed how much the woof moo shirts confuse people. Nobody gets that four letters starting with W might be a radio station.

5:30pm dale:

goshen kind of on the downlow since the govt center closed up due to mold. lot of restaurants and such hurting

♥ 5:30pm rsj:

wow lou gramme, that's crazy

♥ 5:30pm Mike East:

cklequ- people are dumb.

5:30pm sFrances from VA:

I'm looking forward to an April full of Sparks!

5:30pm Cecile:

Mario Andretti!

5:31pm Nate:

Mario Andretti

5:31pm chocolate monk:

jackie stewarts scottish not irish ya bam.

5:31pm Billy:

Andretti

♥ 5:31pm Uncle Michael:

My wife saw the WF MU graphic displayed on my Squeezebox Touch once and got it and thought it was cute as hell.

5:31pm dale:

jackie stewart starting to sound like the lucky charms guy

5:32pm northguineahills:

Yeah, only my 3-4 friends who occasionally listen to WFMU got the Woof-Moo shirt. I got a lot, "what's that shirt about", Qs.

♥ 5:32pm Carmichael:

I always get nice comments when outfitted in my WFMU shirt. And the Home of Dead Air gets a 2nd look, because here in California most people think it's a Dio De Los Muertos shirt.

5:32pm ted:

Jackie Stewart was Scottish Clay...not Irish!!

♥ 5:32pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Fabio's sexy voice and Clay's Jackie Stewart is like some weird fetish-film nightmare. I'm not complaining, though.

♥ 5:33pm Carmichael:

Directed by David Lynch.

♥ 5:33pm Caryn:

Hah! I'm with you, Wendy!

5:34pm northguineahills:

Thanks Wendy, I need to wipe snot off my face, now.

5:34pm chocolate monk:

@ted pretty sure Jackie Stewart still IS scottish ;-)

5:36pm northguineahills:

I think that's ulate?

5:36pm dale:

i think that's xena he's doing.

♥ 5:36pm Wendy del Formaggio:

northguineahills, glad I can help! Maybe your scene can be in the film too! Someone out there would be into it.

5:37pm chocolate monk:

Keen was the best artist to come out of Brighton, UK, one of the best,, immense stuff visually and sonically.

♥ 5:38pm Uncle Michael:

Keening is Irish.

♥ 5:39pm Matt from Springfield:

NO! Proclaimers are solid Scottish!

Hey everyone! The Triumvirate may be returning with Julie in the room!

♥ 5:39pm Caryn:

Man, I'm loving the Jackie Stewart! And apart from the accent, it is actually pretty accurate.

♥ 5:39pm tim from champaign:

Hooray for Fab!

♥ 5:40pm Matt from Springfield:

Thank you, Fabio!

5:40pm Cecile:

that Swans record is so overdone it is funny

♥ 5:41pm cklequ:

........keep raising that goal.

5:42pm Cecile:

my face hurts from laughing

♥ 5:42pm Caryn:

This Marathon has been rather Swans-heavy, but I'm liking it.

5:42pm Cecile:

oh, Christ this is stupidly hilarious.

♥ 5:43pm SeanG:

any bish bosch?

5:43pm Cecile:

You can sing the words to Give it Away to this.

♥ 5:44pm Carmichael:

@UM, are you talking about Ronan Keating?

♥ 5:44pm Julie:

this swans.........ooooh

♥ 5:45pm Carmichael:

Is the playlist updated weekly, or is it abandoned?

♥ 5:45pm Sigurdur:

2145

♥ 5:45pm Uncle Michael:

No, I'm talking about the verb "keen," It's an Irish thing. Irish mourners keen. It's not the same as middle eastern ululation which is what Clay was doing...and which I do not know the proper name of.

♥ 5:47pm Uncle Michael:

The backing vocal on this sounds likie "bop shu bop...bop bop shu bop."

5:47pm Note:

This playlist is still being updated

♥ 5:49pm Matt from Springfield:

@Clay: You should imitate the McCain clip for: "How ABOUT that Sarah Palin, HANH?!!" That's the best sample of him you have!

♥ 5:49pm Ken:

I changed the goal. I heard Fabio say 9 grand so I done it..

♥ 5:50pm cklequ:

They've met the goal twice since i showed up and they're still $400 short...

♥ 5:51pm Mutant:

Good job Tom!

♥ 5:51pm Carmichael:

@UM: Oh, that. It's the Banshee wail, in Irish "bean caoinadh", the death lament. I know all about that; I thought you were talking about the Irish band Boyzone for a minute.

♥ 5:51pm Julie:

sooo close

♥ 5:51pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Ooh! Scott Walker!

5:52pm Tony:

Clay - McCain isn't from Flagstaff, luckily, but Ted Danson is.

♥ 5:52pm cklequ:

...or $40 short.

♥ 5:52pm SeanG:

YES!!

♥ 5:52pm Sigurdur:

Jippi
