WFMU: Daniel Blumin: Playlist from October 11, 2019

Listener comments!
	8:57pm khd: oh, hello there
	8:59pm JakeGould: Woo!
	9:02pm Andal: Happy Freyjaday!
	9:03pm JakeGould: Haha! Kinda funny you are playing Marianne Faithfull now in my own little world.
	🌫 ♥ 9:04pm Ike: Hello all! Local radio news: WNYC is killing New Sounds, becoming even more homogeneous news/talk like all the other NPR stations. Feh! Hopefully some of those New Sounds fans will come over to WFMU.
	9:06pm khd: new sounds, more like boo sounds
	9:06pm khd: boooooooooooo
	9:07pm spidermanked: PJ possibly the sexiest woman alive
	🌫 ♥ 9:08pm ultradamno: Looking forward to a dirty show.
	🌫 ♥ 9:08pm chresti: Hello! PJ's voice is kind of chalky, too
	9:08pm JakeGould: @Ike: Like everything nowadays, it is actually worse than the headline implies, “The station said in an email sent to its staff on Thursday that it planned to close the program by the end of the year, along with most of its remaining music programming, as it shifts to more news and talk.” www.nytimes.com... FWIW, one of the first major signs of WBAI’s decline was when they pretty much gutted the station of arts programming. So WNYC is kinda going down the “Air America” model as well?
	9:09pm JakeGould: @spidermanked: Have you every taken a look at Kate Moss?
	♥ 9:10pm Kotzwinkled: Terrific autumnal evening vibes happening on this show.
	9:16pm spidermanked: @Jake - for me it aint all about "looks" - - PJ behind an electric guitar and a mike - rest my case
	9:17pm Andal: Armenian? What is this language?
	9:17pm jeff-m: ahoy
	9:18pm JakeGould: It’s all Greek to me!
	♥ 9:18pm Daniel Blumin: This is Greek, Andal!
	🌫 ♥ 9:18pm Ike: @Jake, most other NPR stations sound like this now. Corporate world-think, this idea you have to do the same thing all the time on each station so people "know what to expect" or whatever. Actually WAMU in D.C. killed its awesome bluegrass programs so long ago (and put them on a tiny second station and then killed that too) that I figured maybe New Sounds had slipped through and was safe, but nope.
	9:20pm JakeGould: @Ike: On the positive side, I really get a kick out of listening to some on the local call in shows on WNYC and hearing crunchy granola pearl clutchers get upset about things like bike lanes and the strength of marijuana nowadays. It’s like some new level of well intentioned suburban panic. I love it!
	9:21pm Andal: @Daniel: Thanks, duh, I knew it was former Ottoman Empire but couldn't pin it down further. Great set.
	♥ 9:21pm Daniel Blumin: Welcome onboard, everyone! Jim White in studio in a bit!
	9:27pm P-90: Greetings Daniel and The Blumindivisibles.
	9:28pm P-90: And thanks for keeping that record room so sparkly clean...
	♥ 9:31pm Hubig Pie: The unmistakable vocal stylings of Bill Callahan
	9:39pm adrian elaine: so many well-loved songs in this set - enjoying it so much
	🌫 ♥ 9:39pm chresti: Talk about heart melting @Hubig Pie
	🌫 ♥ 9:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: I followed my Bluminstincts and they led me right here.
	♥ 9:41pm erik: so you mean I can't hear what Steve Reich has been up to on WNYC anymore?
	9:41pm longrally: Oh man I love tren bros/dirty 3. Hits all buttons.
	9:42pm jeff-m: yeah, this is an incredible song
	🌫 ♥ 9:43pm Franco Twinkie: I must weigh in from Los Angeles regarding what diminished returns NPR offers listeners with their news, public affairs, political analysis and informed chit-chat: We all want to be informed, but most of the station leave a lot to be desired when it comes to music programming. They are simply catering to a perceived audience that values dinner party backwash over good music. My solution: I replaced my CD player and got good speakers.
	9:46pm Joe Mulligan: Enjoying these gentle sounds tonight Daniel! They’re just right for this evening
	9:46pm longrally: Jim White played with natural information society the other day (!) (I missed it)
	🌫 ♥ 9:53pm ultradamno: Did anyone yell for all of Boys Don't Cry?
	🌫 ♥ 10:00pm ultradamno: I've never seen a band do one of these whole album shows. I can kind of see the appeal, but then being able to check off every song as they come along from a program seems like it would take some of the fun out of watching a live show.
	♥ 10:05pm Hubig Pie: Zeus was born on Mt Ida and raised by a goat on Mt Dikti on the island of Crete
	10:17pm JakeGould: @erik: Steve Reich has now been replaced by endless tedious, ponderous, impassioned and predictable over-analysis of the the obvious I guess. Good journalism is one thing. Beating a dead horse is another. Great name for a WNYC show: “Beating a Dead Horse with Someone.” Could be a music show one week or a talk show the other.
	10:18pm John from Florham park: @Ike this just proves how much of a corporate whore NPR has become
	10:23pm John from Florham park: I am also surprised that there is country music in the New York area
	10:27pm John from Florham park: Pacifica are corporate whores too
	10:32pm huggin molly: Jim ...love flannery oconnor...especially the violent bear it away...night of the Hunter and the intruder a couple great films...are you into the group panopticon....any books or films that changed you...thanks Daniel and Jim
	🌫 ♥ 10:35pm Franco Twinkie: Pacifica can be insufferable,BUT they do not feel constrained well endowed funders because they have none, so as a result you have some pretty loose screws speaking truth to power.
	10:37pm John from Florham park: @Franco very true WBAI has always been down with everybody
	🌫 ♥ 10:40pm Franco Twinkie: In L.A. we have KPFK, and KPFA up in Berkeley, so at lease the well worn path I'm on is covered.
	10:42pm JakeGould: Did I hear what I just hear out of Lana’s vaping mouth?
	10:43pm John from Florham park: @Franco I have gotten to the point where I really don’t want to discuss politics with anyone because it just brings out the worst in people and would rather just listen to good music
	♥ 10:43pm coelacanth∅: hey Daniel & Bluminaries
	10:44pm John from Florham park: @Jskr o think after 10 there is still a sage harbor
	10:44pm John from Florham park: I mean jake sorry
	10:45pm JakeGould: Is “Sage Harbor” a new club?
	🌫 ♥ 10:45pm Franco Twinkie: John, I hardly ever discuss politics because I always feel polluted afterwards.
	10:47pm JakeGould: “Sage Harbor” is like some kind of artisanal “Old Spice” aftershave.
	🌫 ♥ 10:48pm chresti: That Mother's Love was lovely
	10:49pm John from Florham park: @jake I meant safe harbor damn spell checker @Franco same here with politics
	10:49pm JakeGould: “Harbor Damn” is a great bar.
	🌫 ♥ 10:55pm ultradamno: I think the damn spell calls for sage
	10:56pm choggie: okay first date and she loses my phone number
	♥ 10:57pm coelacanth∅: i thought that was the un-damn spell. no wonder.....
	10:57pm JakeGould: Can you imagine beavers trying to dam up a harbor? That would be like a massive undertaking for a group of beavers.
	🌫 ♥ 10:58pm ultradamno: Imagine Beavers, quite the damned band.
	♥ 10:59pm coelacanth∅: well - a good back-up band at any rate.
	11:01pm JakeGould: The beavers would have to, like, work really well together to get tons of trees and fasten them in a way that the harbor currents don’t push away the logs. And like they would need to work in coordinated shifts. Maybe even on both sides of the harbor.
	♥ 11:02pm coelacanth∅: Beavers Beavers That's our dam, if they can't do it no one can.
	🌫 ♥ 11:02pm ultradamno: Would probably put quite a strain on their teeth to do, they should use dental dams
	11:04pm JakeGould: It’s a damned dam racket! Sometimes the best move is to not play the game at all.
	🌫 ♥ 11:14pm chresti: It's easier to play with damn rackets
	🌫 ♥ 11:21pm Ike: Radio "Safe Harbor" is largely a myth. The FCC says you can play things that are "indecent" but not "obscene" between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., but my understanding is that they can define that any goddamn way they want at any given time. Also I'm not clear on whether or not WFMU's internal regulations recognize "Safe Harbor". Many radio stations prefer not to take the risk, which is considerable since the FCC refuses to define what exactly is "indecent" vs. what is "obscene."
	11:24pm Zootopia: My station played a song with the F word three times in the morning. When I emailed the program director, she got pissed off and denied it. It was dumb because there was a clean version of the song, Lana Del Ray. Then they played another hip hop song twice with that word. The college admin took the transmitter.
	🌫 ♥ 11:25pm Franco Twinkie: I seem to remember an episode of Leave It to Beaver where the Beave and Larry Mundello made a dam with all the newspapers they collected for the school paper drive and the dam broke and flooded the auditorium the day before the annual talent show, so instead of facing Miss Landers they ran away and joined a carnival. Do you guys remember that one?
	11:25pm Zootopia: They have been off the air for over a month.
	11:26pm SeanG: Saints!
	♥ 11:26pm Joe D.: we have a very specific policy Ike
	11:28pm Zootopia: Ok, I will remove WNYC from my presets. Removing the app now.
	♥ 11:28pm coelacanth∅: sure do Franco! one of my favorite episodes!
	11:28pm bobby jay: favorite Australia bands...skyhooks...feedtime...and the great spk...great show
	11:29pm Zootopia: I am partial to the Church.
	11:30pm SeanG: Go-Betweens!
	11:31pm Zootopia: The church and go between we’re friends
	♥ 11:31pm coelacanth∅: scientists, dirty three, the necks, eastern dark,
	🌫 ♥ 11:32pm ultradamno: Radio Birdman, Crime & The City Solution, No, Chook Race
	11:32pm Zootopia: What is it with these once cool left of the dial stations removing music from the programming?
	♥ 11:33pm coelacanth∅: (not in that order) oh shit -of course radio birdman
	11:33pm SeanG: COSMIC PSYCHOS!
	🌫 ♥ 11:33pm ultradamno: Foetus
	🌫 ♥ 11:33pm Ike: @Joe D., cool beans
	11:34pm SeanG: The Chats
	🌫 ♥ 11:34pm Franco Twinkie: Do the Cheese Nips count? They were from Tasmania, I think.
	♥ 11:35pm coelacanth∅: chook race?! ...i "went out" with an aussie in the mid-90s who lived on manhatten and when we'd encounter a group of women all talking she'd say "Chooks!"
	♥ 11:37pm coelacanth∅: ...and of course this guy
	🌫 ♥ 11:37pm Franco Twinkie: Out here a 'Chuke' was a Pachuco.
	🌫 ♥ 11:37pm ultradamno: I understood chook to mean chickens...do they race chickens there?
	♥ 11:39pm coelacanth∅: it was to compare the cackling women with cackling chickens. - maybe that was just hers and not an australian thing?
	🌫 ♥ 11:40pm chresti: The chooks were having a hen party
	11:42pm JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: The term “biddy” which is often used to disparage gossipy old women is derived some olde timey word associated with chickens.
	11:42pm JakeGould: Clay Pigeon should have a segment called “Clay’s Biddies.”
	🌫 ♥ 11:43pm ultradamno: I think one of the Chooks in Chook Race is also in Parsnip www.wfmu.org...
	🌫 ♥ 11:45pm ultradamno: Chicken and Parsnip Soup recipe www.myrecipes.com...
	11:46pm Zootopia: Isn’t there a schedule for the streams?
	♥ 11:47pm coelacanth∅: Jake that's interesting, and i don't doubt it; though the female 1/2 of die antwoord has referred to herself as a "biddy", meaning "itty bitty". that's probably just hers.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Jim Carroll used the word “biddy” a lot in his work and it seems to be based on “bitty” but I think he also referred to old ladies in Catholic Church as “church biddies.”: “Today was my first Biddy League game and my first day in any organized basketball league. I’m enthused about life due to this exciting event. The Biddy League is a league for anyone 12 yrs. old or under. I’m actually 13 but my coach Lefty gave me a fake birth certificate.” www.chicagotribune.com...
	🌫 ♥ 11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Idiomatic observation: The chukes were in the calle atrase matando el gallo. Translation: The hoodlums were in the ally strangling a rooster(smoking a joint)
	🌫 ♥ 11:53pm ultradamno: Robert Forster has died.
	11:55pm JakeGould: Ahhh… damn! www.hollywoodreporter.com...
	11:55pm SeanG: the ACTOR! not the musician
	🌫 ♥ 11:56pm ultradamno: Yeah, the actor of Medium Cool and Jackie Brown fame.
	♥ 11:56pm coelacanth∅: yeah it's the actor not the musician
	11:56pm JakeGould: I’m still upset by this despite the confusion.
	♥ 11:57pm coelacanth∅: rest in peace.
	♥ 11:58pm coelacanth∅: time to strangle a rooster, apparently
	11:58pm JakeGould: Time to bathe the biddy.
	🌫 ♥ 11:59pm chresti: Thanks Daniel and Jim!
	♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks Daniel! Thanks Jim White!
	♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: ("better go home now")
	🌫 ♥ 12:01am Franco Twinkie: Bye bye.
	♥ 3:18am Daniel Blumin: Thanks lots to all for listening! Thanks to Jim White for the visit and the musical spinnings! Apologies for being AWOL on the comments, Freeformists! Have a grand week and see ya for Singles Going Wobbly!

Many radio stations prefer not to take the risk, which is considerable since the FCC refuses to define what exactly is "indecent" vs. what is "obscene."
	11:24pm Zootopia: My station played a song with the F word three times in the morning. When I emailed the program director, she got pissed off and denied it. It was dumb because there was a clean version of the song, Lana Del Ray. Then they played another hip hop song twice with that word. The college admin took the transmitter.
	🌫 ♥ 11:25pm Franco Twinkie: I seem to remember an episode of Leave It to Beaver where the Beave and Larry Mundello made a dam with all the newspapers they collected for the school paper drive and the dam broke and flooded the auditorium the day before the annual talent show, so instead of facing Miss Landers they ran away and joined a carnival. Do you guys remember that one?

	🌫 ♥ 11:37pm Franco Twinkie: Out here a 'Chuke' was a Pachuco.
	🌫 ♥ 11:37pm ultradamno: I understood chook to mean chickens...do they race chickens there?
	♥ 11:39pm coelacanth∅: it was to compare the cackling women with cackling chickens. - maybe that was just hers and not an australian thing?
	🌫 ♥ 11:40pm chresti: The chooks were having a hen party
	11:42pm JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: The term “biddy” which is often used to disparage gossipy old women is derived some olde timey word associated with chickens.

	♥ 11:47pm coelacanth∅: Jake that's interesting, and i don't doubt it; though the female 1/2 of die antwoord has referred to herself as a "biddy", meaning "itty bitty". that's probably just hers.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Jim Carroll used the word “biddy” a lot in his work and it seems to be based on “bitty” but I think he also referred to old ladies in Catholic Church as “church biddies.”: “Today was my first Biddy League game and my first day in any organized basketball league. I’m enthused about life due to this exciting event. The Biddy League is a league for anyone 12 yrs. old or under. I’m actually 13 but my coach Lefty gave me a fake birth certificate.” www.chicagotribune.com...
