This week's mailbag included the following fan letter from Rev. Francis Baltan: "The Codger's brain is a composite of slime, mold, bunk, miasma, decay, skunk cabbage, devil's snuff, flapdoodle, and hamburger cheese, blended in minor proportions with razor extract, stump water, and valerian."

Lolabelle Pancake:

Rev. Baltan signed the letter "Anonymous," but his name and return address were on the envelope.

Nobody ever told me dreaming is a sign of heart trouble. I need to make an appointment with my doctor!

Hello, all in attendance. There is no need to remain in your seats. Feel free to cut a rug or shimmy like your sister Kate. Unless Kate was a lousy shimmier. In which case ... follow in your own footsteps.

Gus' reputation is just natural fallout of being unfairly not misunderstood

Did Gus say something something rectum?
I couldn't hear clearly?
  Swag For Life Member 7:19pm
Bruce S.:

haha yeah he did say Rectum

The tile of his book was 'Yes, That's My Rectum' An obvious plug.

"Rectum??!! it damn near killed him!"-the stupidest joke ever told by 10 year olds.

"Yes, That's My Rectum" is Gus's followup to his blockbuster novel "A Fistful of Chuck."

After "Rectum," Gus's next book will be "A Fistful of Chuck II."

Gus has talked about it in several commercial spots in previous shows.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:28pm
ultradamno:

Can Courtney be friends with people who like 33⅓ rpm or 43 rpm records or does he just think they're too slow?
Avatar 7:28pm
Wild Neil||Peace All:

It could be a cryptocurrency based on 78rpm records.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:29pm
ultradamno:

45 rpm...that is.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:31pm
ultradamno:

(though I think some of those "noise" wags so popular at this station have mastered records at 43 rpm, just to be difficult)
  7:32pm
Edward:

People who think like 43 rpm records are... a little off.

Thanks for that heartwarming story from Bob & Ray, Courtney.

Courtney has a malfunctioning Victrola that wavers between 67 and 83-1/2 RPM.

Rummy Delbarton subsidized that reunion. He thinks it went well. Did you?

Because Gus didn't show up tonight, we are broadcasting advertisements from decades ago.

Rummy Del Barton should get himself categorized as a Russian oligarch. Then he should be ok.

Oh, yes, it IS, Franco. "Values" is such an elastic concept!

Courtney just muttered that his music "is so much better than most of the crap they play on this forlorn station."

Crap is in the eye of the beholder...and highly infectious I might add.

Gus is not a rake, but he's rakish.

Music like value is a highly subjective term. If that's more than you want to spend any of your spare time thinking about, take out the trash next time you want to dance.
  Swag For Life Member 7:49pm
Bruce S.:

sister Rosetta Tharpe was great, so many great records
  7:49pm
Edward:

I'm old enough to remember when The Codge couldn't play Hartman's Heartbreakers without lapsing into startlingly lascivious intimations concerning Betty Lou's "fifteen year old body--with a five year old mind!" Very unseemly for a man of his age.
