	9:27am Kevin-san: If I succumb to the plague, I want 3 hours of the new Dylan played at my funeral
	👻 9:28am p20: @HH: I heard it on Glen Jones show this weekend. I needed a long moment of silence afterwards to digest it.... couldn't imagine listening to it again right away, or listening to somebody explain it.
	9:28am David (in London): You can buy a great knish at Fecker and Bagen.
	9:29am Rob (Jerzcity): Just got here - nothing happened to Mike Watt or Hurley di it?

	9:32am Crudbringer: They were about to open a new Runza location here...
	9:32am morphe': Went shopping this am but going out again now- 65*F and sunny...doing the pretend shopping/faux thai takeout walk around the park... Leaving Simon alone playing violent video games with his schoolmates .. please do not call ACS/BCW!!!
	9:33am John Allen: Karl, good to see ya. correction though, on the wheels of steel, i'm trimming all the mp3s like little little bonsai trees.
	9:34am morphe': Kevin San - you must listen to Andre Williams' "BURY ME DEEP" for the bestest ..for my funeral list - google Andre Williams wfmu ken for the play list...
	9:35am Ignatatus666: Has anyone in the Boroughs aside from State Island noticed Police or Ambulence workers wearing a mask to prevent giving others CV-19? I have not. What’s up JA! Great music to end my day.
	👻 9:36am karlward: JA: do the MP3s degrade a little each time you play them? Are these VG+ MP3s?
	9:37am John Allen: last night i saw some cops with ninja looking masks.
	9:37am TDK60: I recall dimly seeing a Jake Holmes LP in a record store back then, maybe passed it up for Rhinoceros.
	9:38am Ignatatus666: At least they are starting to make fun of the Blaz.
	👻 9:38am Handy Haversack: @Ignatatus666: Will report back on our return. I don't recall seeing masks on cops, but it's been a few days.
	9:38am morphe': Clarity - Simon alone playing violent video games with his schoolmates .. please do not call ACS/BCW!!! ONLINE/solo in the house - not a kiddie Corona party!!!!
	9:39am John Allen: first two are really good, the rest are passable trying to break thru the early 70s songwriter fodder
	9:39am Kevin-san: @morphe' - thx, will check it out (before I check out)
	👻 9:39am Threemoons: Good morning JA, fellow AM peeps! Enjoying some Dead Sled Coffee with my AM routine.
	9:42am StringOFperils: Gah...I still hear chimps in the mix. I think my DNA is damaged.
	9:43am Chud: Play Bob Dylan, Murder Most Foul / How many licks does it take, Mr. Owl?
	9:43am morphe': Kevin San - fyi - that whole show is worth a listen!!! Andre is about 1/2 way in...
	9:44am Crudbringer: @Chud crying
	9:46am Chud: @crud, you were slinging some gold yourself, last night
	9:48am Crudbringer: <bows, hat falls out, frogs spew from hat>
	9:49am Rev. Turnip Druid: marmalade. I meant to say marmalade. i have not had margarine. not in a decade or more.
	9:49am Ignatatus666: @Handy The place I haven’t been is Staten Island All day Tuesday in the Bronx east and south a few moments in Queens then half the night in Brooklyn and Manhattan. Did a couple of good test clips in areas I never would have been able to stop at. Did the same tip in Wednesday. Not one first responder was wearing a respirator or mask. A few wore gloves. Manhattan is a ghost town
	9:50am testingwithfire: good Friday all, new to this particular AccuPlaylist :-)
	9:50am moose: sweet
	9:50am Colleen: Omg.... I love this song!!...
	9:51am Woo: I too love this song. It makes me want to cry.
	9:52am John Allen: godley & creme is a sound cleaner than an mp3
	9:53am Colleen: Hi there testungwithfire...I listen to the show....but....usually at work by now
	9:53am Christy D:
	👻 9:53am karlward: Richard Papiercuts arrives in 1977. First order of business, shave. Then put on a suit. Then write this Godley & Creme song. All done. Time to come home.
	9:54am John Allen: get that guy on the phone
	9:54am Toothgrinder Tom: This song is tattooed in my memory for some inexplicable reason. Probably haven’t heard it since 1989.
	👻 9:54am Handy Haversack: @Ig666: Sounds about right. We need a few supplies. Kate was running yesterday and says the local streets are emptier but not empty. Will report back soon!
	9:57am MUWFinMASS: mark e. lives on sorta etcetera
	9:58am Malcolm: new me smith from the spirit dimension

	10:01am John Allen: oh yes
	10:01am John Allen: maybe <2
	10:01am Matt Warwick: OH HELL YEAH
	10:01am Baja Joe: Relative newbie to be tuned in and actively listening to JA. Wow. Thank you teleworking for making this possible.
	👻 10:03am Andrew_in_WI: Daddy Garbage is a tough engineer. Riding JA hard.
	10:04am Matt Warwick: I'm the official bag boy of board operators
	👻 10:04am karlward: When Matt Warwick is on the boards you will get your garbage ON TIME
	10:05am Matt Warwick: oh god. I wrote bag boy.
	10:05am John Allen: welcome in realtime, baja
	10:06am Beast of Boonton: Matt is left holding the bag today
	10:06am karen eliot: good morning everyone
	10:06am John Allen: don't forget to ask, would you like paper, or this seabird dies?
	10:07am WoodsOfNH: Booze udate: I just ordered a buncha stuff over the Internet. What a world!
	👻 10:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Garbage bag boy is just one of Matt's many skeletal duties.
	10:08am Crudbringer: He really _should_ be using a can, for safety. But that economy...
	10:10am Tom in St. Paul: "be nicer to anarchists" – my new preferred greeting
	👻 10:11am Andrew_in_WI: @Woods If you order while drunk it's a surprise when it shows up!
	10:12am steveo: has everyone seen the new skeleton crew mural at the station? www.instagram.com...
	10:12am Malcolm: @steveo - i love it!
	👻 10:13am Passaic River Blues: @steveo: that's fantastic.
	10:13am Crudbringer: that is a picture of a skeleton dream
	10:14am karen eliot: finding this boozer magazine somewhat entertaining. https://drunkard.com/
	10:14am John Allen: jazz.
	10:15am Crudbringer: @JA in my mind I saw you do the hands when you said that
	👻 10:16am Andrew_in_WI: JAZZ
	10:16am John Allen: one hand. chopped
	10:16am Polyus: Breaking news is that Bill Withers has passed away, per his family.
	10:17am John Allen: and here I am doing a show last night
	10:18am Polyus: (Sorry to use that phrase “breaking news”, I kinda hate it)
	10:19am David (in London): Polyus - Sigh, that's unwelcome news I must say.
	👻 10:19am p20: RIP Bill Withers
	👻 10:20am Andrew_in_WI: Matt Warwick could come on and do an a capella "Ain't no Sunshine. "
	👻 10:37am Passaic River Blues: "Fully Loaded" is so good from beginning to end (with "Composition" serving as the end).
	👻 10:38am p20: I love these "Carlos Niño & Friends" records. Great for chilling out, relaxing, drifting off to sleep. My cats are big fans too.
	10:40am Mick: Whoa Bill Withers. Deeep sigh...
	10:40am Davec1: Heard helen at a club on Belmont....hip
	10:42am John Allen: yeah, solid dark stuff
	10:45am Barney Grubbs: Wilson Tanner working nicely as waiting room music for my zoom class at 11.
	10:45am WoodsOfNH: @Andrew_in_WI Truth! But I'm only on coffee at the moment. Cocktail hour approaches!
	10:46am Malcolm: i'm loving this set
	👻 10:49am p20: fantastic set - just mail-ordered the new Helen Money LP (7 copies left!)
	10:52am Diane: News flash: Bill Withers just died
	10:53am Tom in St. Paul: when does Fusion become Prog?
	👻 10:54am p20: It looks like Bill Withers was not a covid victim. He was 81 and had heart trouble. RIP Bill.
	10:55am lukavino: JAZZ
	10:56am karen eliot: only 6 now. helen money!
	👻 10:57am Handy Haversack: Wugh. Getting out in the world can really make you grateful for social isolation. As long as you have WFMU, I guess.
	👻 10:58am p20: @HH: People not respecting the radius?
	10:59am steveo: good thinking to get that ID in early before Matt starts harassing you
	11:00am WoodsOfNH: It was reported yesterday that there were over 400 people skiing up at Tuckerman's Ravine in northern New Hampshire. Apparently, it's been barricaded off now. Man, no thinkie!
	👻 11:00am p20: @Tom in St. Paul: there's an answer to that. But the margin of this playlist is too narrow to contain it.
	11:01am TomDash: g'morning John, sounding good! Hope all is well and safe Upstate! Kraan, nice!
	11:02am John Allen: hey Tom!
	👻 11:03am Handy Haversack: That's the story, @p20. Plus I hadn't factored in the facts of payday AND Friday when needing to go to bank and liquor store. General population mask wearing ~40 percent around here? Thinking it makes people feel like they don't HAVE to observe the JRu radius. Civil servants / police / EMTs: maybe 50 percent masked: small sample size, though. Two letter carriers, two police cops (POLICE COPS!), two traffic cops, two EMTs in an ambulance (one eating, unmasked). Highlights included an Coke truck driver taking the turn too wide onto our block as we were crossing back over to it, freaking out, dropping the sandwich he was eating as he grabbed at the wheel, and somehow managing to open the driver side door as he swung back into the turn! Wild ride! But I got the damn Cynar.
	👻 11:03am p20: @WoodsOfNH: Wow, people really are crazy. Don't they know that place has a high risk of avalanches?
	👻 11:04am Handy Haversack: I tied a BASTARD SONS Y-front around my chin, which lasted pretty much till we reached our corner. The bandana store is closed.
	👻 11:05am p20: @HH: I love bitter liquors. Cynar is great. What do you do with it?
	11:05am WoodsOfNH: @p20, Well yeah, there's that too. I've only been up there once to watch, but I think it was later in the spring.
	11:06am ami ad: Seems like Mexico has put beer production on halt.
	👻 11:06am Handy Haversack: @p20: Usually straight or on the rocks, sometimes with a little soda. Got Campari, too, and doubled up on gin and sweet vermouth, so I can do some experimenting. @ami ad: But not Milwaukee, right?! RIGHT???!!!!
	11:06am JakeGould: What is a “JRu?”
	👻 11:07am Andrew_in_WI: @HH Negroni for the win!
	👻 11:07am p20: @Jake Gould: Joey Ramone Unit (he was 6'6")
	11:07am steveo: i took the dare to click the star and it stopped at that exact moment; sorry
	11:08am Tom in St. Paul: @p20 I'm sure. never made that connection before (silly me).
	11:09am ami ad: @Handy:Nah,Milwaukee is essential,Corona is not.
	11:11am Brian in New Orleans: Brian here..Am I the only one only getting the stream in left channel?
	11:11am Brian in New Orleans: Archived shows working properly
	👻 11:11am Handy Haversack: Joey Ramone unit, @Jake. 6'6" -- which would have made sense to post when I typed it four minutes ago! @ami ad: Whew! I was trembling for a moment.
	11:11am morphe': Back from the faux shopping/faux Thai takeaway expedition ... no cops... Unlike nyc, ya cannot in Madrid be out with a reason.... I have not yet had a check, but I have seen them and my son's ma has been stopped 3 xs??? Simon and I are going 2 miles walking to get stuff in the No.African/African neighborhood... If stopped, though vegetarian, I will say we must go to our Halal butcher... Today is Jummah prayer... or "We are not the Droids you are looking for..." Trying the Halal version first - then we'll use the Schwartz!!!!
	11:12am Crudbringer: far too much blooping, not nearly enough gleeping
	11:12am Brian in New Orleans: working now
	11:13am JakeGould: In NYC they are encouraging everyone to wear a face mask of some kind. Explicitly recommended bandanas and scarfs. Honestly most of the people wearing surgical masks and construction maks are overdoing it.
	11:13am ami ad: @Handy:Cheers.
	👻 11:14am p20: is it all mexican beer or just Corona? (serious question not a joke)
	11:14am tom from Glasgow: great stuff today
	👻 11:15am p20: @morphe': I always enjoy reading your little vignettes of life in Madrid
	👻 11:15am Handy Haversack: @JakeGould: hence my Y-front experiment. It went poorly. Bandana store firmly closed.
	11:15am TDK60: Some folks observe the mick-fleetwood-unit (mfu) in distancing. I know, I know, most prefer the joey-ramone-unit (jru). whichever..
	11:16am ami ad: All Mexican beer. For now.
	👻 11:17am Ken From Hyde Park: Probably not a good day for skiing up there today. Low visibility and high winds this morning. www.mountwashington.org...
	11:17am David (in London): Just been out to the shops for supplies. Gosh, what an adventure.
	👻 11:18am Handy Haversack: @morphe': I impulse bought some Beyond Meat Sausage after our QUORN talk with David earlier. No QUORN available, and I coujldn't do another store. @David, we were just saying the same! Welcome back! Negroni?
	👻 11:18am p20: @TDK60: Nothing at all comes to mind when I try to picture Mick Fleetwood. Joey, on the other hand, was an icon.
	👻 11:19am p20: (Sorry, not trying to start a Mick vs Joey fight.)
	11:19am TDK60: P20: Mick Fleetwood was (is?) the drummer in Fleetwood Mac. He's real tall too.
	11:20am WoodsOfNH: Oooh, it's the freaky circus!
	👻 11:20am p20: @p20: Sure, I've heard of this band once or twice - just don't have a picture of their drummer in my mind :)
	11:21am ben abs: Am currently walking in a forest and v much appreciated the cricket waltz
	11:21am David (in London): The TMu (Thurston Moore unit) has also become popular in certain areas of north London. Now he's a local and all. Handy - Melbec. Emergency four-bottle haul.
	11:21am Rob (Jerzcity): Unfortunately I just picture dangling pom pom balls when Mick Fleetwood comes to mind. Rumors, mostly
	👻 11:21am p20: I love it when I @ myself! That was supposed to be @TDK60
	11:21am TDK60: P20: It may be that there's info on that Fleetwood Mac band online somewhere. I'm told they were big once.
	👻 11:21am Handy Haversack: The interesting maths in that particular ratio war is that the new MFu is coextensive in the x axis while the JRu is almost exclusively a y-axis measurement. Though I have almost completely given up playing with axes with the NYC hospitals so busy these days.
	11:22am ami ad: What's a fleetwood?
	11:23am Crudbringer: Just a fast forest.
	👻 11:24am p20: @ami ad: Twenty dollars, same as in town.
	11:24am JakeGould: @Rob (Jerzcity): Please… Rob, please… Visuals…
	👻 11:25am Handy Haversack: The TMu used to be super solid, but I have trouble trusting it in recent years ... @David: Yeah Campari, Cynar, gin, vermouth here. Though as I mentioned, I forgot about the confluence of Friday and payday before going to the bank and liquor store! Stoke Newington wine sinks overrun by anti-Joey particles?
	11:25am ami ad: Thanks much.
	11:26am spodiodi: you're playing my song! thanks, John Allen. aloha all. good health
	11:27am Bert61: Bill Winters has passed away @ 81
	11:27am David (in London): Hey spodiodi.
	11:30am WillCrete: There were such beautiful shapes in the brass paying on that last piece. Thanks for all the vibrant sounds this morning John, I've been zoned in since that Milestone-era Joe Henderson cut.
	11:30am spodiodi: hey DiL, good to see ya
	👻 11:32am p20: Where else do you find a show that starts with a 6-pack of the Minutemen, passes through some thorny prog/fusion, and winds up here? We love you, WFMU and JA!
	👻 11:33am Ken From Hyde Park: The JRu and others seem useful for measuring social separations. What do you measure with a Neil Rolnick unit?
	11:34am Tom in St. Paul: https://youtu.be/Fx9_4isvpDo
	11:34am Krys O.: Halloo!
	👻 11:34am p20: @Ken From Hyde Park: my patience :)
	11:34am Krys O.: Halloo!
	11:34am John Allen: The Neil Rolnick Unit requires 11 minutes distance
	11:34am Krys O.: Sorry for the double post.
	11:35am John Allen: halloo
	11:36am ami ad: halloo
	👻 11:36am Marley P. Dogg: John - thanks for the great tunes today. Hope you are well...
	👻 11:36am Handy Haversack: Hi, Krys O.!
	👻 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: Halloo! Also: Halloo!
	👻 11:39am p20: Halloo x 2 !
	11:39am David (in London): The NRu is, I think, a measurement of psychological fortitude in relation to sound / music. For example, "Man, John Allen loves that record. I can't take it, though, I have to leave the room when anything goes over 3NRus."
	11:40am David (in London): PS - Halloo!
	11:41am ami ad: halloo to the world,and beyond.
	11:42am karen eliot: heart wrenching wrist slashing

	👻 11:50am p20: Hey here's a question - bit of a long shot but maybe one of you music experts here can help me with this. Sometime around 2003 (?) I bought a CD that featured a Japanese vocalist who was recorded underwater. The music was mostly electronic. I can't remember the name of the singer or anythign else about this. I lost the CD ages ago and I've been trying to figure out what this was. Searching for "underwater vocals" etc turns up too many irrelevant results. Anybody here have a clue?

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from April 3, 2020

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	👻 11:00am p20: @Tom in St. Paul: there's an answer to that. But the margin of this playlist is too narrow to contain it.
	11:01am TomDash: g'morning John, sounding good! Hope all is well and safe Upstate! Kraan, nice!
	11:02am John Allen: hey Tom!
	👻 11:03am Handy Haversack: That's the story, @p20. Plus I hadn't factored in the facts of payday AND Friday when needing to go to bank and liquor store. General population mask wearing ~40 percent around here? Thinking it makes people feel like they don't HAVE to observe the JRu radius. Civil servants / police / EMTs: maybe 50 percent masked: small sample size, though. Two letter carriers, two police cops (POLICE COPS!), two traffic cops, two EMTs in an ambulance (one eating, unmasked). Highlights included an Coke truck driver taking the turn too wide onto our block as we were crossing back over to it, freaking out, dropping the sandwich he was eating as he grabbed at the wheel, and somehow managing to open the driver side door as he swung back into the turn! Wild ride! But I got the damn Cynar.
	👻 11:03am p20: @WoodsOfNH: Wow, people really are crazy. Don't they know that place has a high risk of avalanches?
	👻 11:04am Handy Haversack: I tied a BASTARD SONS Y-front around my chin, which lasted pretty much till we reached our corner. The bandana store is closed.
	👻 11:05am p20: @HH: I love bitter liquors. Cynar is great. What do you do with it?
	11:05am WoodsOfNH: @p20, Well yeah, there's that too. I've only been up there once to watch, but I think it was later in the spring.
	11:06am ami ad: Seems like Mexico has put beer production on halt.
	👻 11:06am Handy Haversack: @p20: Usually straight or on the rocks, sometimes with a little soda. Got Campari, too, and doubled up on gin and sweet vermouth, so I can do some experimenting. @ami ad: But not Milwaukee, right?! RIGHT???!!!!
	11:06am JakeGould: What is a “JRu?”
	👻 11:07am Andrew_in_WI: @HH Negroni for the win!
	👻 11:07am p20: @Jake Gould: Joey Ramone Unit (he was 6'6")
	11:07am steveo: i took the dare to click the star and it stopped at that exact moment; sorry
	11:08am Tom in St. Paul: @p20 I'm sure. never made that connection before (silly me).
	11:09am ami ad: @Handy:Nah,Milwaukee is essential,Corona is not.
	11:11am Brian in New Orleans: Brian here..Am I the only one only getting the stream in left channel?
	11:11am Brian in New Orleans: Archived shows working properly
	👻 11:11am Handy Haversack: Joey Ramone unit, @Jake. 6'6" -- which would have made sense to post when I typed it four minutes ago! @ami ad: Whew! I was trembling for a moment.
	11:11am morphe': Back from the faux shopping/faux Thai takeaway expedition ... no cops... Unlike nyc, ya cannot in Madrid be out with a reason.... I have not yet had a check, but I have seen them and my son's ma has been stopped 3 xs??? Simon and I are going 2 miles walking to get stuff in the No.African/African neighborhood... If stopped, though vegetarian, I will say we must go to our Halal butcher... Today is Jummah prayer... or "We are not the Droids you are looking for..." Trying the Halal version first - then we'll use the Schwartz!!!!
	11:12am Crudbringer: far too much blooping, not nearly enough gleeping
	11:12am Brian in New Orleans: working now
	11:13am JakeGould: In NYC they are encouraging everyone to wear a face mask of some kind. Explicitly recommended bandanas and scarfs. Honestly most of the people wearing surgical masks and construction maks are overdoing it.
	11:13am ami ad: @Handy:Cheers.
	👻 11:14am p20: is it all mexican beer or just Corona? (serious question not a joke)
	11:14am tom from Glasgow: great stuff today
	👻 11:15am p20: @morphe': I always enjoy reading your little vignettes of life in Madrid
	👻 11:15am Handy Haversack: @JakeGould: hence my Y-front experiment. It went poorly. Bandana store firmly closed.
	11:15am TDK60: Some folks observe the mick-fleetwood-unit (mfu) in distancing. I know, I know, most prefer the joey-ramone-unit (jru). whichever..
	11:16am ami ad: All Mexican beer. For now.
	👻 11:17am Ken From Hyde Park: Probably not a good day for skiing up there today. Low visibility and high winds this morning. www.mountwashington.org...
	11:17am David (in London): Just been out to the shops for supplies. Gosh, what an adventure.
	👻 11:18am Handy Haversack: @morphe': I impulse bought some Beyond Meat Sausage after our QUORN talk with David earlier. No QUORN available, and I coujldn't do another store. @David, we were just saying the same! Welcome back! Negroni?
	👻 11:18am p20: @TDK60: Nothing at all comes to mind when I try to picture Mick Fleetwood. Joey, on the other hand, was an icon.
	👻 11:19am p20: (Sorry, not trying to start a Mick vs Joey fight.)
	11:19am TDK60: P20: Mick Fleetwood was (is?) the drummer in Fleetwood Mac. He's real tall too.
	11:20am WoodsOfNH: Oooh, it's the freaky circus!
	👻 11:20am p20: @p20: Sure, I've heard of this band once or twice - just don't have a picture of their drummer in my mind :)
	11:21am ben abs: Am currently walking in a forest and v much appreciated the cricket waltz
	11:21am David (in London): The TMu (Thurston Moore unit) has also become popular in certain areas of north London. Now he's a local and all. Handy - Melbec. Emergency four-bottle haul.
	11:21am Rob (Jerzcity): Unfortunately I just picture dangling pom pom balls when Mick Fleetwood comes to mind. Rumors, mostly
	👻 11:21am p20: I love it when I @ myself! That was supposed to be @TDK60
	11:21am TDK60: P20: It may be that there's info on that Fleetwood Mac band online somewhere. I'm told they were big once.
	👻 11:21am Handy Haversack: The interesting maths in that particular ratio war is that the new MFu is coextensive in the x axis while the JRu is almost exclusively a y-axis measurement. Though I have almost completely given up playing with axes with the NYC hospitals so busy these days.
	11:22am ami ad: What's a fleetwood?
	11:23am Crudbringer: Just a fast forest.
	👻 11:24am p20: @ami ad: Twenty dollars, same as in town.
	11:24am JakeGould: @Rob (Jerzcity): Please… Rob, please… Visuals…
	👻 11:25am Handy Haversack: The TMu used to be super solid, but I have trouble trusting it in recent years ... @David: Yeah Campari, Cynar, gin, vermouth here. Though as I mentioned, I forgot about the confluence of Friday and payday before going to the bank and liquor store! Stoke Newington wine sinks overrun by anti-Joey particles?
	11:25am ami ad: Thanks much.
	11:26am spodiodi: you're playing my song! thanks, John Allen. aloha all. good health
	11:27am Bert61: Bill Winters has passed away @ 81
	11:27am David (in London): Hey spodiodi.
	11:30am WillCrete: There were such beautiful shapes in the brass paying on that last piece. Thanks for all the vibrant sounds this morning John, I've been zoned in since that Milestone-era Joe Henderson cut.
	11:30am spodiodi: hey DiL, good to see ya
	👻 11:32am p20: Where else do you find a show that starts with a 6-pack of the Minutemen, passes through some thorny prog/fusion, and winds up here? We love you, WFMU and JA!
	👻 11:33am Ken From Hyde Park: The JRu and others seem useful for measuring social separations. What do you measure with a Neil Rolnick unit?
	11:34am Tom in St. Paul: https://youtu.be/Fx9_4isvpDo
	11:34am Krys O.: Halloo!
	👻 11:34am p20: @Ken From Hyde Park: my patience :)
	11:34am Krys O.: Halloo!
	11:34am John Allen: The Neil Rolnick Unit requires 11 minutes distance
	11:34am Krys O.: Sorry for the double post.
	11:35am John Allen: halloo
	11:36am ami ad: halloo
	👻 11:36am Marley P. Dogg: John - thanks for the great tunes today. Hope you are well...
	👻 11:36am Handy Haversack: Hi, Krys O.!
	👻 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: Halloo! Also: Halloo!
	👻 11:39am p20: Halloo x 2 !
	11:39am David (in London): The NRu is, I think, a measurement of psychological fortitude in relation to sound / music. For example, "Man, John Allen loves that record. I can't take it, though, I have to leave the room when anything goes over 3NRus."
	11:40am David (in London): PS - Halloo!
	11:41am ami ad: halloo to the world,and beyond.
	11:42am karen eliot: heart wrenching wrist slashing
	11:42am John Allen: OK, I'll cop to using one NRu to rid my show of any spongebobs from Wake and Bake that try to stay around for free stickers
	👻 11:43am karlward: Wait there are free stickers for us W+B SpongeBobs?
	👻 11:43am karlward: I'm going to stick around even harder now
	👻 11:43am Handy Haversack: Wish me luck, friends. Kate's gonna make me exercise again. If I am not back for the end (or ever!), thanks for the tunes, @JA! Great show today. BOARD OPPED, Matt! Thanks!
	11:44am David (in London): Good luck Handy. Fight the cruel tyrant Kate!
	11:44am John Allen: stay safe Handy
	👻 11:45am Handy Haversack: You too, JA! @David, I'm praying to KING QUORN!
	11:46am David (in London): You're a North London Runza now Handy. You don't take no crap from no-one...
	11:48am karen eliot: have a great weekend. going to finish that chocolate layer cake and watch mr. rogers.
	11:49am Irene Trudel: Really enjoying today's show, John-- especially the last hour.
	11:49am ami ad: Big thanks&praise to the D.J. and the skelecrew.Much appreciated.
	11:50am maestroso: Great show JA. Thanks!
	11:50am John Allen: hey thx Irene! Hope you & Peter are safe y well
	👻 11:50am p20: Hey here's a question - bit of a long shot but maybe one of you music experts here can help me with this. Sometime around 2003 (?) I bought a CD that featured a Japanese vocalist who was recorded underwater. The music was mostly electronic. I can't remember the name of the singer or anythign else about this. I lost the CD ages ago and I've been trying to figure out what this was. Searching for "underwater vocals" etc turns up too many irrelevant results. Anybody here have a clue?
	11:50am morphe': David van der Stoke and Handy Codex - Simon is having quorn nuggets and my homefries for dinner.. My homefries get organic ketchup and he mandates Heinz for the nuggets - 8 year old logic !!!
	11:51am John Allen: p20 Aube?
	11:51am John Allen: ...i'm just going by water/japanese
	11:52am David (in London): morphe - May the spirit of my clan be with you both.
	11:52am listener 126464: Thanks John, cheers everybody.
	👻 11:52am Andrew_in_WI: @p20 electronic noise, or electronic beats?
	11:53am David (in London): Great show today JA, thanks.
	👻 11:53am p20: @p20: I'll have to check! That might have been it. In either case, Aube looks incredibly interesting. Thanks John!!
	11:53am ben abs: Hey JA, just fyi the audio only comes out of the left channel when you speak
	👻 11:53am p20: @Andrew_in_WI: not noise at all. beats. as i remember. it's been a while
	11:54am steveo: live intervention? rip
	11:54am Brian in New Orleans: Great show..Actually when John is on mike the right channel drops ...when playing music all is good
	11:54am Adam West Coaster: Thank you, JA, for this Bill Withers.
	11:54am John Allen: ugh -thanks Ben.
	👻 11:54am p20: @JA Thanks!
	11:54am Phil in Charlotte: Aube is great! I love Pages from the Book
	👻 11:56am Marley P. Dogg: RIP Bill :(
