	9:09am Zipperhead7: Good morning, Trouble and Modernists! Here's something interesting. Bill Griffith, creator of Zippy the Pinhead, published a book of travel sketches many years ago. He describes hearing a song called "Baby Cat Mommy Cat" all over Italy in 1984. In a classic of misunderstood lyrics, it turns out to be Rita Lee's "Bem Me Quer," played on this show May 5! This has been driving me nuts for nearly 40 years!!!
	9:10am YETI BOB: Zipperhead: Bill Griffith's drawings are so good, I think he's a bit underrated as an artist.
	9:11am Robm: @Trouble have not seen too much of that on here unless your Madison cawthrowm:)
	9:13am Zinn The Mood: Hey Trouble and Troublemakers. My favorite, the perfect kind of Troubled morning: a grey canopy overhead, still some leftover rain but slowed, wet and effervescent shades of green in the park, all the annoying and selfish buffoons kept at bay by it all for the most part. As Mark Twain would say on the posters for his lectures, “The Trouble Begins…” marktwainstudies.com... Love this musical accompaniment to the setting here.
	9:13am Trouble: @ robm: i shut down two people last week. i didn't catch it until after the show
	9:13am Irene Trudel: Sunday's Stork Club on our Give the Drummer Radio stream will be featuring Sun Ra from 9am to 4pm! wfmu.org...
	9:14am Vivian: Trouble, I have to thank you for your positive review of 'Man at the Helm'. I'm 20 pages in and loving it. It balances out my other read 'Pandemic Inc'.
	9:14am Irene Trudel: It's sad that some people don't like to "play nice," Trouble!
	9:16am Robm: @Trouble ouch they must have been trolls
	9:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble troop!
	9:17am melinda: hi everyone
	9:17am Mike W: Oh, thank you so much — on behalf of every living thing — for playing my boy Wexler today.
	9:17am Trouble: they weren't trolls. one was a regular.
	9:18am Robm: @Irene that us gonna be a ling day with stork, nit that i am complaining:)
	9:18am Robm: @Trouble gotcha
	9:18am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I was up on SLC campus for a memorial service on Tuesday. I forget how lovely that place is in the spring. It was a very good service for an intensely wonderful professor there.
	9:19am Trouble: super@ vivian. nina stibbe has several books that follow that one, that are even better!
	9:19am Trouble: true@handy!
	9:20am LP Stevenson: Perfect vibes for my Thursday, Trouble. Keep this groove going.
	9:21am go.forth.and.thrash____: Good one Trouble!
	9:21am karlward: Love this Laurel Premo
	9:22am Handy Haversack: Oh, also, I was on a community meeting for the Newtown Creek Superfund last night, and a fellow from NOAA was on who had done an Eel Day(!!) presentation at Liberty State Park. I told him if he ever wanted to announce another event there, he should e-mail you since you're such a great advocate for the park. In case you hear from a NOAA biologist!
	9:22am ChukAmok: That's a great photo.
	9:22am Handy Haversack: (Can't BELIEVE I missed Eel Day!)
	9:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Do you go out for unagi an Eel Day? Gees, that sounds wrong.
	9:25am ChukAmok: Unagi goes out for you on Eel Day.
	9:25am peter in SEA: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/17/arts/music/for-the-birds-birdsong.html. Birdsongs article in NYTimes this am (online at least)
	9:25am go.forth.and.thrash____: Everyday is EEL day, that is my ninja promise.
	9:26am Jaydot Kaydot: Eel Day is becoming so commercialized these days.
	9:26am Hughie Considine: But if every day is Eel Day, well, you know, it's a slippery slope.
	9:27am go.forth.and.thrash____: hahah - Hughie
	9:27am go.forth.and.thrash____: If you feel it, you can EEL it, get some!
	9:28am Vivian: Also, a thank you to folks who gave me reading suggestions last week. Summer reading is upon me and I feel fine.
	9:29am Jaydot Kaydot: Just a couple of weeks ago, I was walking down in Liberty State Park and listening to Dj GG's Eel episode. Cosmic Eel synergy. wfmu.org...
	9:30am Robm: @Peter in sea that New York times article is behind a paywall
	9:30am go.forth.and.thrash____: get some EELasticity in your slack package, concrete!
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: @Vivian: Tuli Kupferberg wrote some fantastic stuff
	9:31am Handy Haversack: The power of the Eel is in us all.
	9:32am MD: This sounds like a Badalimente (sp?)) piece? Good morning Freeform Nation of the Station!
	9:33am Tara: good morning, so appreciating the good vibes really dig laurel premo when i hear her on your show have a good day everyone
	9:34am PaulRobeson1922: NOAA in 2014 made their T.R.I website much harder to use. The EPA’s Toxic Release Inventory monitors how much toxic material is released into the air water and soil each year in the United States. For 2014 it was over 4 trillion pounds
	9:35am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Come for the music, stay for the eel dad jokes.
	9:35am drr: Zipperhead: love that story about the song.
	9:37am Hughie Considine: @Woods, Nothing is eel, and nothing to get hung about.
	9:37am StringOFperils: Hi, Trouble. Trying to find my zen; I know it's around here someplace.
	9:37am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @StringOFperils: It's behind the couch.
	9:37am Vivian: @paulRobeson1922: Thank you, I'll check out his writings.
	9:38am Handy Haversack: 'Cause we're keeping it eel.
	9:38am StringOFperils: @Woods > It's possible. I'll take a look.
	9:39am Irene Trudel: Here's the gist of the NYT article: On Friday, Randall Poster will release the first volume of “For the Birds,” a star-studded, 242-track collection of original songs and readings inspired by or incorporating birdsong; later this year, it will be bundled as a 20-LP boxed set to benefit the National Audubon Society. The project sprawled, he said, because birds seemed to be on everyone’s mind. “People were spending a lot of time looking out the window,” said Poster, one among the legion of bird-watching initiates in the pandemic. “There was so much that was unknown and unknowable that we were comforted by the fact nature was still doing its thing.” “For the Birds” unspools like a version of a soundtrack Poster might design for an Anderson film, cavorting through moods and styles at will. There are elegies and aubades, fiddle tunes and field recordings. A radiant electronic trance from Dan Deacon and a Beatles interpretation from Elvis Costello share space with a Jonathan Franzen reading; Laurie Anderson, Alice Coltrane (remixed), Yoko Ono and a reading from Wendell Pierce open separate LPs.
	9:39am iiibeat: Roosevelt's Pension!!
	9:43am Hydroplane: Hi Trouble, do you like the band that I named my username after? Their amazing 1997 debut got reissued and I'm telling everyone who might care. Disclaimer: Not a street team just a goofy fan.
	9:43am Uleeshuh TN: really enjoying the song set
	9:45am Mark Ludas: Beautiful song, Making me almost tear up before the gym
	9:45am Trouble: i don't know very much about them@ hydroplane.
	9:46am ChukAmok: A 20 LP box set? That is beyond huge.
	9:46am Hydroplane: They're a very ambient indie pop band, an alias/project offshoot of The Cat's Miaow. You'd like it.
	9:48am ChukAmok: Hydroplane is great, @Hydroplane!
	9:50am StringOFperils: I love this Lhasa album. Terrible shame that life cut her short.
	9:50am Handy Haversack: Four-and-twenty LPs, baked in a pie ...
	9:50am Hydroplane: High 5 @ChukAmok! I am so aware how much I come off like a marketing intern for the band right now. Just spreading the good word.
	9:50am Passaic River Blues: The incomparable Ms. de Sela!
	9:52am Hydroplane: BTW @ChukAmok appreciate your indie pop tastes fellow Black Tambourine show-goer
	9:52am ChukAmok: @Hydroplane During our first x-country tour Drive-In Records Mike set up a show for my band in Grand Rapids, took us out to dinner, and since he managed a multiplex movie theater got us in for a private screening of the yet to be released 'Jay & Silent Bob Movie', and gave us a place to stay. True legend!
	9:53am PaulRobeson1922: Liquid Light show behind the music is fantastic
	9:53am Hydroplane: Wow! Great guy great label! Makes sense
	9:54am PaulRobeson1922: Hey Hydroplane! I’m wondering, do you like deli Sandwiches?
	9:54am ChukAmok: The appreciation is mutual, Hydroplane.
	9:55am Hydroplane: [searches "deli sandwiches" on discogs, comes up dry, figures I am walking into a trap...] ...Yes?
	9:56am PaulRobeson1922: Ah, don’t worry about it
	9:56am PaulRobeson1922: Brothers? What Brothers?
	9:57am Handy Haversack: For all fans of deli sandwiches, possibly the greatest song ever written about them: misseaves.bandcamp.com...
	9:58am drr: Hey, that's my band's name....
	9:59am PaulRobeson1922: @Handy Haversack: I used to get mayonnaise Sandwiches for 12 bucks a pop, 3 times a week. Now I’ve allocated my deli fund to WFMU! For the love of the music!!! & to keep the Greatest freeform Radio station in the World going!! baby
	10:01am abbazabba: Mayonnaise Sandwiches !! Hi Trouble and Everyone! Digging the show. Especially like the opening track
	10:03am ChukAmok: @Hydroplane I was not aware of the Australian re-issue, so thanks for passing that along. I've also toured with Mia Schoen, whose artwork was used on the The Sound Of Changing Places album. Small world.
	10:03am adampsyche: massive attack
	10:03am drr: Handy, I checked out the song. While it did not suit my sonic palette, I enjoyed the lyrics. A thing I miss a lot about NYC living was ubiquitous breakfast sandwiches that are good. That's just not a thing here where I live. There's a coffee shop that makes and egg and cheese on a roll for like $9.50 and the newspaper wrote a whole article about how sophisticated and New Yorkish it was.
	10:03am Handy Haversack: That's some pricey mayo!
	10:04am Handy Haversack: Oof, drr, I am feeling your pain.
	10:05am drr: I still kinda wanna go get one.
	10:05am ChukAmok: Mayo, heirloom tomato, and fresh ground black pepper is the best sandwich. lettuce, watercress, dijon optional.
	10:06am HyperDose: Forgetting something? 🥓🥓🥓
	10:07am abbazabba: @ChukAmok - Interesting! I've never heard of that. Will have to try it out sometime.
	10:07am Hydroplane: @ChukAmok You're welcome, and that's very neat!!
	10:08am oshiwoshi: There is definitely a place for Hypnotic music (whatever captBeefheart said)
	10:08am ChukAmok: Right there with you @drr. Former New Yorker not navigation the relative cultural/gastronomic desert of the outer lands.
	10:08am drr: @abbazabba: I love that sandwich but I put the ingredients between two slices of fresh bread. Less messy.
	10:08am ChukAmok: *now navigating
	10:09am ChukAmok: Any bread will do, but a twelve-grain is my go-to.
	10:10am abbazabba: I used to be in New York too. I moved down south a while ago and remember asking people in my town where I could find a good deli. I was told "Subway" multiple times. It still hurts!
	10:12am Handy Haversack: We have left the light on for you all. Breakfast's on me if you move back.
	10:12am Cat Stacker: (customizing my Mii)
	10:13am HyperDose: But is the 91.1 signal strong and steady, Handy? Drop outs really hinder the dining experience for me
	10:14am Analog Nights: I went to the Sun Ra house. Their neighbor was sweeping the sidewalk and knocked on the door on our behalf. Baby Ra (their current / sometimes keyboard player) answered the door, shirt off. He let us in and we stood in awe of the practice space.
	10:14am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Starting the AM with a bang--woke up to a ton of work emails, so you're gonna be seeing less of me, but you're in my earholes while I toil away.
	10:14am Uleeshuh TN: Analog Nights 😃
	10:15am abbazabba: I also remember asking people where I could get some good pizza when I moved down here. Most people told me Papa Johns. Heartbraking.
	10:15am Trouble: that is very cool@ analog nights.
	10:15am ChukAmok: Aw, thanks Handy!
	10:15am abbazabba: *breaking
	10:16am go.forth.and.thrash____: I wish I was customizing my Mii, and/or stacking cat's...in Sun Ra's attic/basement____
	10:16am karlward: I'm guessing that we are not in Friendly Galaxy Number 1 either
	10:16am drr: I'm in a great food town (New Orleans) but a simple breakfast sandwich (egg on a roll) is beyond everyone's capabilities. There's a donut shop by me that advertises a breakfast sandwich but it takes ten minutes, which right there shows you they don't know how to do it. It's on white toast. If you ask for it to go you don't get a neat paper and foil wrapped parcel, you get a styrofoam clamshell and a plastic bag that you have to hang on your handlebar or just enjoy your sandwich in the parking lot.
	10:16am Mister Dobalina: @ abbazabba: My GramMa' gets the sunday paper and randomly sends me fast food coupons, which I seldom use. The latest of her mailings included a page full of Subway coupons. Interested? Hahahah.
	10:16am Handy Haversack: Unless the wind is in the east, HyperD!
	10:17am drr: Maybe it's on me to be the egg on a roll guy.
	10:17am Jason from Houston: Good morning, friendly radio galaxy.
	10:17am abbazabba: hahahaha thanks Mister Dobalina!
	10:17am go.forth.and.thrash____: I have a bulletin board with only Weinerschnitzel coupons pinned to it. Not just a hot dog anymore!
	10:18am drr: Dobalina: you have a grandma that sends you mail? Hang on to it.
	10:18am Mister Dobalina: I feel all those coupons away, so I put them in the lobby of apt building and they are usually gonna when I check.
	10:19am Mister Dobalina: *feel bad throwing away...
	10:19am go.forth.and.thrash____: I ripped my skull out of my head-skin eating an Abba-Zabba once, love that shite.
	10:20am drr: LOL, g.f.&.t____.
	10:20am drr: Great image. I gotta go deliver a COVID test to a neighbor. Sorry to leave Sun Ra and crew.
	10:22am abbazabba: Hahaha go forth and thrash - I didn’t realize my name was so Metal!
	10:22am Mister Dobalina: Can't ever really go wrong with the 'Ra !!
	10:24am Jason from Houston: The MFAH is screening A Joyful Noise in a couple of weeks as part of their Jazz on Film series. Looking forward to the big screen, big sound.
	10:26am ChukAmok: @drr Oh yeah, you are in a much better spot than I am (ustate SC). I had a pretty good egg sandwich with avocado from French Truck last time I was in NOLA. It was the FT on Dryades.
	10:26am Vivian: @abbazabba: I know how you feel. If you're looking for good pizza in Atl, try Antico's. I can't tell you how many NYers sat next to me and raved about their pizza.
	10:26am BillyLundun: Love the spaceways!
	10:26am drr: thanks for that info ChukAmok!
	10:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): A couple of years ago I had to stop for bloodwork (fasting) on my way to the office. Was starving by the time I got to work so against my better judgement I stopped at a Dunkin Donuts and got an egg on an english muffin. It tasted like almost nothing. Kind of amazingly bland.
	10:28am Andres: Good morning! Digging the Sun Ra. I feel like those oligarchs are spoiling space travel.
	10:28am iiibeat: Rudolf Steiner suggested that the human race itself originated from Saturn. Initially, Earth was nothing but human beings/bodies.
	10:28am abbazabba: Thanks, Vivian!
	10:28am karlward: I'm headed to Portland, OR next weekend. Any good venues there for seeing live jazz, R&B, or hip hop? (Asked this on Wake too but didn't get any takers)
	10:29am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: I feel blessed that I actually live upstairs from a great bakery--mostly Italian sweets but they have a small deli case and from early until about noon you can get a good bakery semmich (ie egg and cheese on a roll, done the old fashioned way). Never hit any of the other bodegas near me for same, but there is also a Mexican grocery place next door to a Columbian cafe' closeish to me; both do a mean brekkie semmich from what I have been told.
	10:29am Trouble: vivan: are you in atlanta? have you ever visited pasaquan? it's amazing!! pasaquan.columbusstate.edu
	10:29am Handy Haversack: Vivian, I grew up in ATL but don't think that was there when I was living there. Where is it? I'm heading back next year, I figure. I always make a point of a slice or two at Fellini's when I'm there. I sort of grew up in it.
	10:29am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: And as far as deli semmiches .... Sal Chris and Charlie's in Astoria! Not for vegetarians alas.
	10:30am iiibeat: And in preceding the Sun, Saturn began as a coalescence of temperature which is where we get our steady 98degree tendency.
	10:31am john_zilla: loving the show!
	10:31am HyperDose: @🌙🌙🌙 Buying an RC boat right now. I'll send cold hard cash over the river and you drop flaky pastries on the floaty thing. Deal?!
	10:32am PaulRobeson1922: Comparative Embryology —>points to a common origin for all life in the universe “Alle Menschen werden Brüder, Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.”
	10:33am Vivian: @ Trouble: Yes in Atl. I haven't visited Pasaquan, I see a fall trip in my future. @Handy: Whereabouts did you grow up? Antico's has two locations - near 14th and Battery Park. The location near 14th (Hemp Hill area) is the best.
	10:33am Ken From Hyde Park: This looks interesting. A showing this Saturday of Kirikou and The Sorceress and some live African drumming beforehand, in Rhinebeck. www.upstatefilms.org...
	10:33am PaulRobeson1922: That is - Comparative Embryology
	10:33am iiibeat: Saturn is The Reaper of Souls.
	10:35am PaulRobeson1922: “Sometimes I feel discouraged and think my works in vain- ‘tis then the Holy Spirit revives my soul againn”
	10:35am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HyperDose cool! Have fun with the new toy. Need to steal a Bezos Drone and haxor it to delivery pastries and eggs on rolls to your boat and across the river to the WFMU Crew!
	10:36am Vivian: @Handy: You can't go wrong with Fellini's! It's still around.
	10:36am Handy Haversack: Vivian: First near Emory and then by Clairmont/Shallowford. Went to school on Ponce just north of Candler and L5P. The Ponce Fellini's was our HS lunch place. Only needed to scrape together $1.09 for a slice, and you could fill the crust with grated parm for dessert!
	10:37am headcleaner: Nice work, Trouble - this program has been like this morning's weather in the NJ/NYC area - a badly needed cooling breeze
	10:40am iiibeat: Was into Manly P Hall for a few years. Krishnamurti and Bohm . . But I haven't been able to get away from Rudolf Steiner.
	10:42am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: THIS is what I love about WFMU. While prepping for a work meeting, I get diverted down a German/Austrian Philosophical Wormhole via Wikipedia...while listening to Sun Ra.
	10:42am Andres: I was going to have a bagel with my coffee but for some reason went with an egg sandwich.
	10:43am Vivian: @Handy: Now I'm hankering for a slice! May be too early to ask, but where in Atlanta are you looking to move?
	10:47am Handy Haversack: Oh, no, I'm not moving back! Just coming for a long weekend next spring.
	10:47am ChukAmok: Finding anything vegetarian in this town is an uphill climb. There is a new vegan meal service that I am trying out for the first time today, but will have to drive all the way across town and meet these folks in a Denny's parking lot to pick it up. Pizza slices here are an absolute no-go. Too disgusting to describe. I have become a pretty good cook over the past seven years.
	10:47am SGT. SCR.^.PES: AMAZING SET, wow, perfect on this grey NJ DAY! THANK YOU!!! .^.
	10:48am The Last Phillip: Very nice😊 ive been wanting to hear Sun Ra's music for some time.
	10:49am karlward: ChukAmok: knowing what great pizza is is a blessing, yet it can be a curse--the knowledge that great pizza exists somewhere but you can't have it
	10:49am Trouble: meric@ SGT, The Last.
	10:50am ChukAmok: @karlward Truer words are seldom spoken. A slice from Not Ray's in Fort Greene would be heavenly at this point.
	10:51am karlward: If I lived outside the range of great pizza, I would probably build a brick oven and make it myself.
	10:52am anne: so damn beautiful!
	10:53am iiibeat: Yes Sir! "He" was all about Goethe. Goethe all about Spinoza and Shakespeare. Beyond there, I am stumped, honestly.
	10:54am caver_mike: I'll never forget the times that I went to see Sun Ra at the Famous Ballroom in Baltimore during the '70s.
	10:55am karlward: (Having built nothing with bricks, ever)
	10:56am Handy Haversack: Should be the most effective strategy vs. the Big Bad Pizza Wolf, though, karlward. Which I assume is a thing once far enough from the slice shops of NYC. I have asked a friend in Portland for advice for you, too.
	10:56am iiibeat: Saturn lives! Within The Apple of The Eye.
	10:56am Andres: If you've ever built something then you can build a brick pizza oven. My fool friends who built one are proof.
	10:57am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): We bought one of those pellet-driven pizza ovens a few years back. Makes fantastic pizza though man, you've gotta pay attention when the deck is at 750 degrees!
	10:58am ChukAmok: @karlward There's a clay oven at Glendale Shoals Preserve that we hit up for wood fired pizzas every now and then. Its a nice spot, with a garden that folks can pick from (within reason).
	10:58am karlward: Handy: Thanks! You will be invited to the christening of my brick pizza oven, should I ever build one. The only R&B show I see in Portland that weekend is Lawrence at the Crystal Ballroom. Haven't heard Lawrence.
	11:02am Andres: WoodsOfNH: What's the baking time? A couple of minutes at that temp?
	11:04am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Andres: About a minute. You go about 45 seconds, open the door and turn the pizza, close it and count to 15. It's crazy.
	11:05am Phil Bender: this Sun Ra set is exceptional!
	11:06am Andres: WoodsOfNH: So a couple of minutes would've left a pile of ashes!
	11:07am Handy Haversack: On Venus, you don't even need the oven!
	11:08am Mister Dobalina: Sun Ra morning is making all right.
	11:10am drr: OK, I'm back. Friend's test was negative.
	11:10am prof.fuzz: oh hey. space is the place... mornin' y'all.
	11:12am drr: I remembered on my bike ride: the other NYC breakfast I miss is tamales from the lady with the shopping cart on the corner of Stanhope and Wyckoff Streets.
	11:13am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Andres: Yep! Let's just say it's an active process. But the flavor is fantastic.
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Hey, prof.fuzz! How's the van? I picked up a comp from Mississippi Records not too long ago and got on their newsletter, the most recent of which has a pretty great origin story for the label and store that's all about Sun Ra. Worth checking out.
	11:15am prof.fuzz: hi handy. we're rolling smoothly again, wallet significantly lighter. gonna have to sell a buncha merch over the next few weeks!
	11:17am Phil Bender: Sun Ra is opening for Kurt Vile @ Webster Hall 6/2!
	11:17am YETI BOB: Karlward - in my experience PDX is not a great city for jazz. But there is what seems an unusually high concentration of stripper bars. There are socio-historical reasons for this.
	11:17am ChukAmok: Speaking of Mississippi Records: perhaps that's something karlward can do while in PDX. They might have the skinny on shows that weekend.
	11:18am The Hip Replacement: Love my new WFMU apron!
	11:19am YETI BOB: "Portland has more strip clubs per capita than any other city in the United States. With one strip club for every 11,826 residents, Portland far outranks Miami, New Orleans, and Las Vegas"
	11:19am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I saw Sun Ra play Elephants on Parade from the Disney movie Dumbo. I was in my 20's and could not really process that WFMU plays avant garde jazz. Saw them at that club that is no more existing in Hoboken, circa 1989 or so. I told on musician they were better than the Grateful Dead to which he replied "that's because we are the grateful living!". Glad I was there. This is why you should go see bands you don't "get" at the time but might later. I don't know, just a thought.....
	11:20am YETI BOB: Karlward: Histort of Stripping in Oregon: www.oregonencyclopedia.org...
	11:20am HyperDose: How about a congressWOMAN? 👑
	11:20am YETI BOB: History of Black exclusion laws in Oregon: www.oregonencyclopedia.org...
	11:21am thatpatsmith: Great birding in the Vale!
	11:22am Zinn The Mood: Just walked by an ad on the bus stop up at the corner that caught my eye (somehow, because I’ve conditioned myself to resist as much as possible having even the slightest bit of advertising lodged in my brain) made me think of our excellent and erudite Francophile host. Have you heard about this cultural festival happening in NYC this summer, Trouble? villa-albertine.org...
	11:27am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Lots o fires in NM right now. 350 houses destroyed so far. 1500 structures at risk.
	11:27am abbazabba: Thanks for the Sun Ra, Trouble! That was fun!
	11:33am Mike W: Just old enough and fortunate enough to have seen Sun Ra with the Arkestra in Minneapolis, early ’90s, an unforgettable night.
	11:33am headcleaner: Thanks for the link, Zinn -- sounds like a re-brand of the "Night of Philosophy" from pre-pandemic days, and it's good to know it's coming back. That said, given current Omicron surge (that the city seems to be still largely in denial about) one wonders if this the right time to be doing "in-person mega events" (of the alcohol-sloshed variety) again, despite our sincere need / wish for such. At least completely "sans restrictions" they way this event seems to be set up.
	11:33am Zipperhead7: Just spent an hour driving the twisting highways of Orange County NY listening to that wonderful Sun Ra set. Groove without end, amen!
	11:35am Rich in Washington: Marshall Allen and Sun Ra will be doing a three day thing in my town this summer!
	11:35am Passaic River Blues: @Zipperhead7: Always glad to hear about FMU coming loud and clear in my natal land!
	11:35am iiibeat: (Poem finis) Saturn Lives! Within The Apple of The Eye Human chain, Human train. Holy Spirit, Holy Name. Porous Horus, blind chance fame. This, as The Fool transmigrates and transforms. Waking into Water!
	11:36am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone. Better late than never.
	11:37am prof.fuzz: gotta step out and take a pup to the vet for her annual check up. back in a bit.
	11:38am Foolproof pizza: My oven works great at 450° Four doughs. Keeps for over a week in the fridge. Brick ovens etc etc are overkill. Why put roadblocks in the way of perfect pizza? Trust me. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SDpCzJw2xm4
	11:39am HyperDose: 450 is the magic number, yes
	11:39am Foolproof pizza: Cookie sheet is enough
	11:43am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I know a guy that has a furnace company (industrial processing furnaces). They designed an outdoor pizza oven that gets above 750 or 800 (maybe even 1,000 degress) and cooks a pizza in 2 minutes. They are in Erie Pa I think.
	11:43am drr: @Headcleaner: for anyone wondering about boozy mega-events, pretty much everybody in New Orleans got sick (COVID) during or after Jazz Fest. I'm exaggerating but it was really a lot.
	11:45am chris in the redwoods: love love love this new Kendra Morris album! also, hi, Trouble and peoples.
	11:46am Passaic River Blues: Lovely song here from Friend of the Duane Train, Ms. Morris.
	11:46am HyperDose: There's a whole album of this? 😍
	11:46am drr: I had a ticket to go and see one of my musical idols but I saw how the crowds were looking and just didn't want to face it. Even for one of my musical idols. Yes, it was Lionel Richie, if you must know.
	11:47am Zinn The Mood: Completely with you, headcleaner. We’ve been adhering pretty rigorously to all protocols. Though I usually won’t worry too much about outdoor gatherings, provided it’s not people packed in tightly upon one another. There’s just so much for the citizenry’s to get together in person to talk about, and a philosophical event seems perfect. Between the capitalist price gouge pillaging to the vicious RW white supremacist massacre to the Ukrainemania distraction promulgated by state media propaganda to the mishandling of the pandemic - there’s just so much to in my view that could really set things off like never before. And in a time like that I think it’s most effective to gather in person (heeding pandemic guidelines) than online.
	11:47am headcleaner: @drr - not surprised -- everyone seems very fatigued + is throwing in the towel in regard to masking and other protections. Which is exactly according to the Virus's master plan, of course.
	11:49am Handy Haversack: Zinn: free outdoor show at Mama Tried in Sunset Park tonight, if you're around. I'll be in the WFMU cat jersey and Pulaski Skyway hoodie!
	11:49am Bimbus Bambus: I'm hearing the X-Files theme in the accordion part
	11:49am Handy Haversack: And same to you, headcleaner, if you're around! Yeah, subways, Metro North, grocery stores: mask use is dwindling, it seems.
	11:50am PaulRobeson1922: genius.com...
	11:51am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: In the VA in ABQ NM they make you wear a mask still. I was just there for a foot problem Friday. Howver, my son flew from ABQ to Denver, no mask needed and virtually nobody using one in the airport.
	11:51am Zinn The Mood: Thanks, HH! Probably a bit far for a bicycle ride from Astoria, but I’ll consider it. What time?
	11:52am drr: Are fires near you Wild Neil?
	11:53am PaulRobeson1922: Peace & Love 1&all Good stuff, Trouble! Thank U
	11:53am Susan & Bryan: thank you thank you thank you. once again an amazing show.
	11:53am Hubig Pie: Foolproof pizza - try a cast iron pan. Lotsa O.O. , press out the dough, top as desired , set over med-high flame for 5 min., then into 500 f over for 8-10 min. Makes a mighty fine pie
	11:54am Hubig Pie: oven
	11:55am Handy Haversack: Zinn, first band at 7. I think K8's band is at 9. Many thanks for a fine journey, Trouble! Best place to be on Thursday mornings is right here in the Modern World. Stay Troubled, all!
	11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Sun Ra forever!
	11:55am rx scabin: F Pizza A baking steel or something works very well and works well for pita.
	11:55am rx scabin: Thank you Trouble. Fabulous.
	11:56am Passaic River Blues: Is this the new Sudan Archives?
	11:56am Passaic River Blues: Also, thank you, Trouble!
	11:56am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today. share the sun ra love...
	11:57am Trouble: yes it's a single
	11:57am Phillippe: Thanks Trouble!
	11:57am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @DRR-short answer not exactly, closest one is 30 miles roughly north. However, smoke warning is yellow in parts of ABQ on green-yelow-red scale for SMOKE. Check ou this cool map and put in 87112 for zip code for my house and you can see it yourself. fire.airnow.gov Thanks for asking!
	11:58am drr: great show, Trouble. I will go back and check the Sun Ra I missed. Wild Neil: Thanks for the link! I have good friends in Santa Fe and I don't know how this is affecting them either.
	11:58am Mike W: Walking m’dog along the grassy riverbank while Sun Ra emanated from my portaspeaker was a real treat (dog got many treats and find-its too!)
	11:58am rx scabin: F Pizza A charcoal grill with a little wood too gets very hot. I have used that. A A Weber "classic" style.
	12:01pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Oh, thats it?? OK bye!
	12:28pm SGT. SCR.^.PES: I’m cool enough to listen to you❤️ •^•
	12:30pm SGT. SCR.^.PES: I was referencing her old tag line…man, tough room

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:09am oshiwoshi: morning all - looking forward to this long bath in marvellous music
	9:09am Zipperhead7: Good morning, Trouble and Modernists! Here's something interesting. Bill Griffith, creator of Zippy the Pinhead, published a book of travel sketches many years ago. He describes hearing a song called "Baby Cat Mommy Cat" all over Italy in 1984. In a classic of misunderstood lyrics, it turns out to be Rita Lee's "Bem Me Quer," played on this show May 5! This has been driving me nuts for nearly 40 years!!!
	9:10am YETI BOB: Zipperhead: Bill Griffith's drawings are so good, I think he's a bit underrated as an artist.
	9:11am Robm: @Trouble have not seen too much of that on here unless your Madison cawthrowm:)
	9:13am Zinn The Mood: Hey Trouble and Troublemakers. My favorite, the perfect kind of Troubled morning: a grey canopy overhead, still some leftover rain but slowed, wet and effervescent shades of green in the park, all the annoying and selfish buffoons kept at bay by it all for the most part. As Mark Twain would say on the posters for his lectures, “The Trouble Begins…” marktwainstudies.com... Love this musical accompaniment to the setting here.
	9:13am Trouble: @ robm: i shut down two people last week. i didn't catch it until after the show
	9:13am Irene Trudel: Sunday's Stork Club on our Give the Drummer Radio stream will be featuring Sun Ra from 9am to 4pm! wfmu.org...
	9:14am Vivian: Trouble, I have to thank you for your positive review of 'Man at the Helm'. I'm 20 pages in and loving it. It balances out my other read 'Pandemic Inc'.
	9:14am Irene Trudel: It's sad that some people don't like to "play nice," Trouble!
	9:16am Robm: @Trouble ouch they must have been trolls
	9:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble troop!
	9:17am melinda: hi everyone
	9:17am Mike W: Oh, thank you so much — on behalf of every living thing — for playing my boy Wexler today.
	9:17am Trouble: they weren't trolls. one was a regular.
	9:18am Robm: @Irene that us gonna be a ling day with stork, nit that i am complaining:)
	9:18am Robm: @Trouble gotcha
	9:18am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I was up on SLC campus for a memorial service on Tuesday. I forget how lovely that place is in the spring. It was a very good service for an intensely wonderful professor there.
	9:19am Trouble: super@ vivian. nina stibbe has several books that follow that one, that are even better!
	9:19am Trouble: true@handy!
	9:20am LP Stevenson: Perfect vibes for my Thursday, Trouble. Keep this groove going.
	9:21am go.forth.and.thrash____: Good one Trouble!
	9:21am karlward: Love this Laurel Premo
	9:22am Handy Haversack: Oh, also, I was on a community meeting for the Newtown Creek Superfund last night, and a fellow from NOAA was on who had done an Eel Day(!!) presentation at Liberty State Park. I told him if he ever wanted to announce another event there, he should e-mail you since you're such a great advocate for the park. In case you hear from a NOAA biologist!
	9:22am ChukAmok: That's a great photo.
	9:22am Handy Haversack: (Can't BELIEVE I missed Eel Day!)
	9:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Do you go out for unagi an Eel Day? Gees, that sounds wrong.
	9:25am ChukAmok: Unagi goes out for you on Eel Day.
	9:25am peter in SEA: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/17/arts/music/for-the-birds-birdsong.html. Birdsongs article in NYTimes this am (online at least)
	9:25am go.forth.and.thrash____: Everyday is EEL day, that is my ninja promise.
	9:26am Jaydot Kaydot: Eel Day is becoming so commercialized these days.
	9:26am Hughie Considine: But if every day is Eel Day, well, you know, it's a slippery slope.
	9:27am go.forth.and.thrash____: hahah - Hughie
	9:27am go.forth.and.thrash____: If you feel it, you can EEL it, get some!
	9:28am Vivian: Also, a thank you to folks who gave me reading suggestions last week. Summer reading is upon me and I feel fine.
	9:29am Jaydot Kaydot: Just a couple of weeks ago, I was walking down in Liberty State Park and listening to Dj GG's Eel episode. Cosmic Eel synergy. wfmu.org...
	9:30am Robm: @Peter in sea that New York times article is behind a paywall
	9:30am go.forth.and.thrash____: get some EELasticity in your slack package, concrete!
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: @Vivian: Tuli Kupferberg wrote some fantastic stuff
	9:31am Handy Haversack: The power of the Eel is in us all.
	9:32am MD: This sounds like a Badalimente (sp?)) piece? Good morning Freeform Nation of the Station!
	9:33am Tara: good morning, so appreciating the good vibes really dig laurel premo when i hear her on your show have a good day everyone
	9:34am PaulRobeson1922: NOAA in 2014 made their T.R.I website much harder to use. The EPA’s Toxic Release Inventory monitors how much toxic material is released into the air water and soil each year in the United States. For 2014 it was over 4 trillion pounds
	9:35am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Come for the music, stay for the eel dad jokes.
	9:35am drr: Zipperhead: love that story about the song.
	9:37am Hughie Considine: @Woods, Nothing is eel, and nothing to get hung about.
	9:37am StringOFperils: Hi, Trouble. Trying to find my zen; I know it's around here someplace.
	9:37am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @StringOFperils: It's behind the couch.
	9:37am Vivian: @paulRobeson1922: Thank you, I'll check out his writings.
	9:38am Handy Haversack: 'Cause we're keeping it eel.
	9:38am StringOFperils: @Woods > It's possible. I'll take a look.
	9:39am Irene Trudel: Here's the gist of the NYT article: On Friday, Randall Poster will release the first volume of “For the Birds,” a star-studded, 242-track collection of original songs and readings inspired by or incorporating birdsong; later this year, it will be bundled as a 20-LP boxed set to benefit the National Audubon Society. The project sprawled, he said, because birds seemed to be on everyone’s mind. “People were spending a lot of time looking out the window,” said Poster, one among the legion of bird-watching initiates in the pandemic. “There was so much that was unknown and unknowable that we were comforted by the fact nature was still doing its thing.” “For the Birds” unspools like a version of a soundtrack Poster might design for an Anderson film, cavorting through moods and styles at will. There are elegies and aubades, fiddle tunes and field recordings. A radiant electronic trance from Dan Deacon and a Beatles interpretation from Elvis Costello share space with a Jonathan Franzen reading; Laurie Anderson, Alice Coltrane (remixed), Yoko Ono and a reading from Wendell Pierce open separate LPs.
	9:39am iiibeat: Roosevelt's Pension!!
	9:43am Hydroplane: Hi Trouble, do you like the band that I named my username after? Their amazing 1997 debut got reissued and I'm telling everyone who might care. Disclaimer: Not a street team just a goofy fan.
	9:43am Uleeshuh TN: really enjoying the song set
	9:45am Mark Ludas: Beautiful song, Making me almost tear up before the gym
	9:45am Trouble: i don't know very much about them@ hydroplane.
	9:46am ChukAmok: A 20 LP box set? That is beyond huge.
	9:46am Hydroplane: They're a very ambient indie pop band, an alias/project offshoot of The Cat's Miaow. You'd like it.
	9:48am ChukAmok: Hydroplane is great, @Hydroplane!
	9:50am StringOFperils: I love this Lhasa album. Terrible shame that life cut her short.
	9:50am Handy Haversack: Four-and-twenty LPs, baked in a pie ...
	9:50am Hydroplane: High 5 @ChukAmok! I am so aware how much I come off like a marketing intern for the band right now. Just spreading the good word.
	9:50am Passaic River Blues: The incomparable Ms. de Sela!
	9:52am Hydroplane: BTW @ChukAmok appreciate your indie pop tastes fellow Black Tambourine show-goer
	9:52am ChukAmok: @Hydroplane During our first x-country tour Drive-In Records Mike set up a show for my band in Grand Rapids, took us out to dinner, and since he managed a multiplex movie theater got us in for a private screening of the yet to be released 'Jay & Silent Bob Movie', and gave us a place to stay. True legend!
	9:53am PaulRobeson1922: Liquid Light show behind the music is fantastic
	9:53am Hydroplane: Wow! Great guy great label! Makes sense
	9:54am PaulRobeson1922: Hey Hydroplane! I’m wondering, do you like deli Sandwiches?
	9:54am ChukAmok: The appreciation is mutual, Hydroplane.
	9:55am Hydroplane: [searches "deli sandwiches" on discogs, comes up dry, figures I am walking into a trap...] ...Yes?
	9:56am PaulRobeson1922: Ah, don’t worry about it
	9:56am PaulRobeson1922: Brothers? What Brothers?
	9:57am Handy Haversack: For all fans of deli sandwiches, possibly the greatest song ever written about them: misseaves.bandcamp.com...
	9:58am drr: Hey, that's my band's name....
	9:59am PaulRobeson1922: @Handy Haversack: I used to get mayonnaise Sandwiches for 12 bucks a pop, 3 times a week. Now I’ve allocated my deli fund to WFMU! For the love of the music!!! & to keep the Greatest freeform Radio station in the World going!! baby
	10:01am abbazabba: Mayonnaise Sandwiches !! Hi Trouble and Everyone! Digging the show. Especially like the opening track
	10:03am ChukAmok: @Hydroplane I was not aware of the Australian re-issue, so thanks for passing that along. I've also toured with Mia Schoen, whose artwork was used on the The Sound Of Changing Places album. Small world.
	10:03am adampsyche: massive attack
	10:03am drr: Handy, I checked out the song. While it did not suit my sonic palette, I enjoyed the lyrics. A thing I miss a lot about NYC living was ubiquitous breakfast sandwiches that are good. That's just not a thing here where I live. There's a coffee shop that makes and egg and cheese on a roll for like $9.50 and the newspaper wrote a whole article about how sophisticated and New Yorkish it was.
	10:03am Handy Haversack: That's some pricey mayo!
	10:04am Handy Haversack: Oof, drr, I am feeling your pain.
	10:05am drr: I still kinda wanna go get one.
	10:05am ChukAmok: Mayo, heirloom tomato, and fresh ground black pepper is the best sandwich. lettuce, watercress, dijon optional.
	10:06am HyperDose: Forgetting something? 🥓🥓🥓
	10:07am abbazabba: @ChukAmok - Interesting! I've never heard of that. Will have to try it out sometime.
	10:07am Hydroplane: @ChukAmok You're welcome, and that's very neat!!
	10:08am oshiwoshi: There is definitely a place for Hypnotic music (whatever captBeefheart said)
	10:08am ChukAmok: Right there with you @drr. Former New Yorker not navigation the relative cultural/gastronomic desert of the outer lands.
	10:08am drr: @abbazabba: I love that sandwich but I put the ingredients between two slices of fresh bread. Less messy.
	10:08am ChukAmok: *now navigating
	10:09am ChukAmok: Any bread will do, but a twelve-grain is my go-to.
	10:10am abbazabba: I used to be in New York too. I moved down south a while ago and remember asking people in my town where I could find a good deli. I was told "Subway" multiple times. It still hurts!
	10:12am Handy Haversack: We have left the light on for you all. Breakfast's on me if you move back.
	10:12am Cat Stacker: (customizing my Mii)
	10:13am HyperDose: But is the 91.1 signal strong and steady, Handy? Drop outs really hinder the dining experience for me
	10:14am Analog Nights: I went to the Sun Ra house. Their neighbor was sweeping the sidewalk and knocked on the door on our behalf. Baby Ra (their current / sometimes keyboard player) answered the door, shirt off. He let us in and we stood in awe of the practice space.
	10:14am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Starting the AM with a bang--woke up to a ton of work emails, so you're gonna be seeing less of me, but you're in my earholes while I toil away.
	10:14am Uleeshuh TN: Analog Nights 😃
	10:15am abbazabba: I also remember asking people where I could get some good pizza when I moved down here. Most people told me Papa Johns. Heartbraking.
	10:15am Trouble: that is very cool@ analog nights.
	10:15am ChukAmok: Aw, thanks Handy!
	10:15am abbazabba: *breaking
	10:16am go.forth.and.thrash____: I wish I was customizing my Mii, and/or stacking cat's...in Sun Ra's attic/basement____
	10:16am karlward: I'm guessing that we are not in Friendly Galaxy Number 1 either
	10:16am drr: I'm in a great food town (New Orleans) but a simple breakfast sandwich (egg on a roll) is beyond everyone's capabilities. There's a donut shop by me that advertises a breakfast sandwich but it takes ten minutes, which right there shows you they don't know how to do it. It's on white toast. If you ask for it to go you don't get a neat paper and foil wrapped parcel, you get a styrofoam clamshell and a plastic bag that you have to hang on your handlebar or just enjoy your sandwich in the parking lot.
	10:16am Mister Dobalina: @ abbazabba: My GramMa' gets the sunday paper and randomly sends me fast food coupons, which I seldom use. The latest of her mailings included a page full of Subway coupons. Interested? Hahahah.
	10:16am Handy Haversack: Unless the wind is in the east, HyperD!
	10:17am drr: Maybe it's on me to be the egg on a roll guy.
	10:17am Jason from Houston: Good morning, friendly radio galaxy.
	10:17am abbazabba: hahahaha thanks Mister Dobalina!
	10:17am go.forth.and.thrash____: I have a bulletin board with only Weinerschnitzel coupons pinned to it. Not just a hot dog anymore!
	10:18am drr: Dobalina: you have a grandma that sends you mail? Hang on to it.
	10:18am Mister Dobalina: I feel all those coupons away, so I put them in the lobby of apt building and they are usually gonna when I check.
	10:19am Mister Dobalina: *feel bad throwing away...
	10:19am go.forth.and.thrash____: I ripped my skull out of my head-skin eating an Abba-Zabba once, love that shite.
	10:20am drr: LOL, g.f.&.t____.
	10:20am drr: Great image. I gotta go deliver a COVID test to a neighbor. Sorry to leave Sun Ra and crew.
	10:22am abbazabba: Hahaha go forth and thrash - I didn’t realize my name was so Metal!
	10:22am Mister Dobalina: Can't ever really go wrong with the 'Ra !!
	10:24am Jason from Houston: The MFAH is screening A Joyful Noise in a couple of weeks as part of their Jazz on Film series. Looking forward to the big screen, big sound.
	10:26am ChukAmok: @drr Oh yeah, you are in a much better spot than I am (ustate SC). I had a pretty good egg sandwich with avocado from French Truck last time I was in NOLA. It was the FT on Dryades.
	10:26am Vivian: @abbazabba: I know how you feel. If you're looking for good pizza in Atl, try Antico's. I can't tell you how many NYers sat next to me and raved about their pizza.
	10:26am BillyLundun: Love the spaceways!
	10:26am drr: thanks for that info ChukAmok!
	10:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): A couple of years ago I had to stop for bloodwork (fasting) on my way to the office. Was starving by the time I got to work so against my better judgement I stopped at a Dunkin Donuts and got an egg on an english muffin. It tasted like almost nothing. Kind of amazingly bland.
	10:28am Andres: Good morning! Digging the Sun Ra. I feel like those oligarchs are spoiling space travel.
	10:28am iiibeat: Rudolf Steiner suggested that the human race itself originated from Saturn. Initially, Earth was nothing but human beings/bodies.
	10:28am abbazabba: Thanks, Vivian!
	10:28am karlward: I'm headed to Portland, OR next weekend. Any good venues there for seeing live jazz, R&B, or hip hop? (Asked this on Wake too but didn't get any takers)
	10:29am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: I feel blessed that I actually live upstairs from a great bakery--mostly Italian sweets but they have a small deli case and from early until about noon you can get a good bakery semmich (ie egg and cheese on a roll, done the old fashioned way). Never hit any of the other bodegas near me for same, but there is also a Mexican grocery place next door to a Columbian cafe' closeish to me; both do a mean brekkie semmich from what I have been told.
	10:29am Trouble: vivan: are you in atlanta? have you ever visited pasaquan? it's amazing!! pasaquan.columbusstate.edu
	10:29am Handy Haversack: Vivian, I grew up in ATL but don't think that was there when I was living there. Where is it? I'm heading back next year, I figure. I always make a point of a slice or two at Fellini's when I'm there. I sort of grew up in it.
	10:29am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: And as far as deli semmiches .... Sal Chris and Charlie's in Astoria! Not for vegetarians alas.
	10:30am iiibeat: And in preceding the Sun, Saturn began as a coalescence of temperature which is where we get our steady 98degree tendency.
	10:31am john_zilla: loving the show!
	10:31am HyperDose: @🌙🌙🌙 Buying an RC boat right now. I'll send cold hard cash over the river and you drop flaky pastries on the floaty thing. Deal?!
	10:32am PaulRobeson1922: Comparative Embryology —>points to a common origin for all life in the universe “Alle Menschen werden Brüder, Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.”
	10:33am Vivian: @ Trouble: Yes in Atl. I haven't visited Pasaquan, I see a fall trip in my future. @Handy: Whereabouts did you grow up? Antico's has two locations - near 14th and Battery Park. The location near 14th (Hemp Hill area) is the best.
	10:33am Ken From Hyde Park: This looks interesting. A showing this Saturday of Kirikou and The Sorceress and some live African drumming beforehand, in Rhinebeck. www.upstatefilms.org...
	10:33am PaulRobeson1922: That is - Comparative Embryology
	10:33am iiibeat: Saturn is The Reaper of Souls.
	10:35am PaulRobeson1922: “Sometimes I feel discouraged and think my works in vain- ‘tis then the Holy Spirit revives my soul againn”
	10:35am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HyperDose cool! Have fun with the new toy. Need to steal a Bezos Drone and haxor it to delivery pastries and eggs on rolls to your boat and across the river to the WFMU Crew!
	10:36am Vivian: @Handy: You can't go wrong with Fellini's! It's still around.
	10:36am Handy Haversack: Vivian: First near Emory and then by Clairmont/Shallowford. Went to school on Ponce just north of Candler and L5P. The Ponce Fellini's was our HS lunch place. Only needed to scrape together $1.09 for a slice, and you could fill the crust with grated parm for dessert!
	10:37am headcleaner: Nice work, Trouble - this program has been like this morning's weather in the NJ/NYC area - a badly needed cooling breeze
	10:40am iiibeat: Was into Manly P Hall for a few years. Krishnamurti and Bohm . . But I haven't been able to get away from Rudolf Steiner.
	10:42am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: THIS is what I love about WFMU. While prepping for a work meeting, I get diverted down a German/Austrian Philosophical Wormhole via Wikipedia...while listening to Sun Ra.
	10:42am Andres: I was going to have a bagel with my coffee but for some reason went with an egg sandwich.
	10:43am Vivian: @Handy: Now I'm hankering for a slice! May be too early to ask, but where in Atlanta are you looking to move?
	10:47am Handy Haversack: Oh, no, I'm not moving back! Just coming for a long weekend next spring.
	10:47am ChukAmok: Finding anything vegetarian in this town is an uphill climb. There is a new vegan meal service that I am trying out for the first time today, but will have to drive all the way across town and meet these folks in a Denny's parking lot to pick it up. Pizza slices here are an absolute no-go. Too disgusting to describe. I have become a pretty good cook over the past seven years.
	10:47am SGT. SCR.^.PES: AMAZING SET, wow, perfect on this grey NJ DAY! THANK YOU!!! .^.
	10:48am The Last Phillip: Very nice😊 ive been wanting to hear Sun Ra's music for some time.
	10:49am karlward: ChukAmok: knowing what great pizza is is a blessing, yet it can be a curse--the knowledge that great pizza exists somewhere but you can't have it
	10:49am Trouble: meric@ SGT, The Last.
	10:50am ChukAmok: @karlward Truer words are seldom spoken. A slice from Not Ray's in Fort Greene would be heavenly at this point.
	10:51am karlward: If I lived outside the range of great pizza, I would probably build a brick oven and make it myself.
	10:52am anne: so damn beautiful!
	10:53am iiibeat: Yes Sir! "He" was all about Goethe. Goethe all about Spinoza and Shakespeare. Beyond there, I am stumped, honestly.
	10:54am caver_mike: I'll never forget the times that I went to see Sun Ra at the Famous Ballroom in Baltimore during the '70s.
	10:55am karlward: (Having built nothing with bricks, ever)
	10:56am Handy Haversack: Should be the most effective strategy vs. the Big Bad Pizza Wolf, though, karlward. Which I assume is a thing once far enough from the slice shops of NYC. I have asked a friend in Portland for advice for you, too.
	10:56am iiibeat: Saturn lives! Within The Apple of The Eye.
	10:56am Andres: If you've ever built something then you can build a brick pizza oven. My fool friends who built one are proof.
	10:57am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): We bought one of those pellet-driven pizza ovens a few years back. Makes fantastic pizza though man, you've gotta pay attention when the deck is at 750 degrees!
	10:58am ChukAmok: @karlward There's a clay oven at Glendale Shoals Preserve that we hit up for wood fired pizzas every now and then. Its a nice spot, with a garden that folks can pick from (within reason).
	10:58am karlward: Handy: Thanks! You will be invited to the christening of my brick pizza oven, should I ever build one. The only R&B show I see in Portland that weekend is Lawrence at the Crystal Ballroom. Haven't heard Lawrence.
	11:02am Andres: WoodsOfNH: What's the baking time? A couple of minutes at that temp?
	11:04am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Andres: About a minute. You go about 45 seconds, open the door and turn the pizza, close it and count to 15. It's crazy.
	11:05am Phil Bender: this Sun Ra set is exceptional!
	11:06am Andres: WoodsOfNH: So a couple of minutes would've left a pile of ashes!
	11:07am Handy Haversack: On Venus, you don't even need the oven!
	11:08am Mister Dobalina: Sun Ra morning is making all right.
	11:10am drr: OK, I'm back. Friend's test was negative.
	11:10am prof.fuzz: oh hey. space is the place... mornin' y'all.
	11:12am drr: I remembered on my bike ride: the other NYC breakfast I miss is tamales from the lady with the shopping cart on the corner of Stanhope and Wyckoff Streets.
	11:13am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Andres: Yep! Let's just say it's an active process. But the flavor is fantastic.
	11:14am Handy Haversack: Hey, prof.fuzz! How's the van? I picked up a comp from Mississippi Records not too long ago and got on their newsletter, the most recent of which has a pretty great origin story for the label and store that's all about Sun Ra. Worth checking out.
	11:15am prof.fuzz: hi handy. we're rolling smoothly again, wallet significantly lighter. gonna have to sell a buncha merch over the next few weeks!
	11:17am Phil Bender: Sun Ra is opening for Kurt Vile @ Webster Hall 6/2!
	11:17am YETI BOB: Karlward - in my experience PDX is not a great city for jazz. But there is what seems an unusually high concentration of stripper bars. There are socio-historical reasons for this.
	11:17am ChukAmok: Speaking of Mississippi Records: perhaps that's something karlward can do while in PDX. They might have the skinny on shows that weekend.
	11:18am The Hip Replacement: Love my new WFMU apron!
	11:19am YETI BOB: "Portland has more strip clubs per capita than any other city in the United States. With one strip club for every 11,826 residents, Portland far outranks Miami, New Orleans, and Las Vegas"
	11:19am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I saw Sun Ra play Elephants on Parade from the Disney movie Dumbo. I was in my 20's and could not really process that WFMU plays avant garde jazz. Saw them at that club that is no more existing in Hoboken, circa 1989 or so. I told on musician they were better than the Grateful Dead to which he replied "that's because we are the grateful living!". Glad I was there. This is why you should go see bands you don't "get" at the time but might later. I don't know, just a thought.....
	11:20am YETI BOB: Karlward: Histort of Stripping in Oregon: www.oregonencyclopedia.org...
	11:20am HyperDose: How about a congressWOMAN? 👑
	11:20am YETI BOB: History of Black exclusion laws in Oregon: www.oregonencyclopedia.org...
	11:21am thatpatsmith: Great birding in the Vale!
	11:22am Zinn The Mood: Just walked by an ad on the bus stop up at the corner that caught my eye (somehow, because I’ve conditioned myself to resist as much as possible having even the slightest bit of advertising lodged in my brain) made me think of our excellent and erudite Francophile host. Have you heard about this cultural festival happening in NYC this summer, Trouble? villa-albertine.org...
	11:27am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Lots o fires in NM right now. 350 houses destroyed so far. 1500 structures at risk.
	11:27am abbazabba: Thanks for the Sun Ra, Trouble! That was fun!
	11:33am Mike W: Just old enough and fortunate enough to have seen Sun Ra with the Arkestra in Minneapolis, early ’90s, an unforgettable night.
	11:33am headcleaner: Thanks for the link, Zinn -- sounds like a re-brand of the "Night of Philosophy" from pre-pandemic days, and it's good to know it's coming back. That said, given current Omicron surge (that the city seems to be still largely in denial about) one wonders if this the right time to be doing "in-person mega events" (of the alcohol-sloshed variety) again, despite our sincere need / wish for such. At least completely "sans restrictions" they way this event seems to be set up.
	11:33am Zipperhead7: Just spent an hour driving the twisting highways of Orange County NY listening to that wonderful Sun Ra set. Groove without end, amen!
	11:35am Rich in Washington: Marshall Allen and Sun Ra will be doing a three day thing in my town this summer!
	11:35am Passaic River Blues: @Zipperhead7: Always glad to hear about FMU coming loud and clear in my natal land!
	11:35am iiibeat: (Poem finis) Saturn Lives! Within The Apple of The Eye Human chain, Human train. Holy Spirit, Holy Name. Porous Horus, blind chance fame. This, as The Fool transmigrates and transforms. Waking into Water!
	11:36am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone. Better late than never.
	11:37am prof.fuzz: gotta step out and take a pup to the vet for her annual check up. back in a bit.
	11:38am Foolproof pizza: My oven works great at 450° Four doughs. Keeps for over a week in the fridge. Brick ovens etc etc are overkill. Why put roadblocks in the way of perfect pizza? Trust me. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SDpCzJw2xm4
	11:39am HyperDose: 450 is the magic number, yes
	11:39am Foolproof pizza: Cookie sheet is enough
	11:43am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I know a guy that has a furnace company (industrial processing furnaces). They designed an outdoor pizza oven that gets above 750 or 800 (maybe even 1,000 degress) and cooks a pizza in 2 minutes. They are in Erie Pa I think.
	11:43am drr: @Headcleaner: for anyone wondering about boozy mega-events, pretty much everybody in New Orleans got sick (COVID) during or after Jazz Fest. I'm exaggerating but it was really a lot.
	11:45am chris in the redwoods: love love love this new Kendra Morris album! also, hi, Trouble and peoples.
	11:46am Passaic River Blues: Lovely song here from Friend of the Duane Train, Ms. Morris.
	11:46am HyperDose: There's a whole album of this? 😍
	11:46am drr: I had a ticket to go and see one of my musical idols but I saw how the crowds were looking and just didn't want to face it. Even for one of my musical idols. Yes, it was Lionel Richie, if you must know.
	11:47am Zinn The Mood: Completely with you, headcleaner. We’ve been adhering pretty rigorously to all protocols. Though I usually won’t worry too much about outdoor gatherings, provided it’s not people packed in tightly upon one another. There’s just so much for the citizenry’s to get together in person to talk about, and a philosophical event seems perfect. Between the capitalist price gouge pillaging to the vicious RW white supremacist massacre to the Ukrainemania distraction promulgated by state media propaganda to the mishandling of the pandemic - there’s just so much to in my view that could really set things off like never before. And in a time like that I think it’s most effective to gather in person (heeding pandemic guidelines) than online.
	11:47am headcleaner: @drr - not surprised -- everyone seems very fatigued + is throwing in the towel in regard to masking and other protections. Which is exactly according to the Virus's master plan, of course.
	11:49am Handy Haversack: Zinn: free outdoor show at Mama Tried in Sunset Park tonight, if you're around. I'll be in the WFMU cat jersey and Pulaski Skyway hoodie!
	11:49am Bimbus Bambus: I'm hearing the X-Files theme in the accordion part
	11:49am Handy Haversack: And same to you, headcleaner, if you're around! Yeah, subways, Metro North, grocery stores: mask use is dwindling, it seems.
	11:50am PaulRobeson1922: genius.com...
	11:51am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: In the VA in ABQ NM they make you wear a mask still. I was just there for a foot problem Friday. Howver, my son flew from ABQ to Denver, no mask needed and virtually nobody using one in the airport.
	11:51am Zinn The Mood: Thanks, HH! Probably a bit far for a bicycle ride from Astoria, but I’ll consider it. What time?
	11:52am drr: Are fires near you Wild Neil?
	11:53am PaulRobeson1922: Peace & Love 1&all Good stuff, Trouble! Thank U
	11:53am Susan & Bryan: thank you thank you thank you. once again an amazing show.
	11:53am Hubig Pie: Foolproof pizza - try a cast iron pan. Lotsa O.O. , press out the dough, top as desired , set over med-high flame for 5 min., then into 500 f over for 8-10 min. Makes a mighty fine pie
	11:54am Hubig Pie: oven
	11:55am Handy Haversack: Zinn, first band at 7. I think K8's band is at 9. Many thanks for a fine journey, Trouble! Best place to be on Thursday mornings is right here in the Modern World. Stay Troubled, all!
	11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Sun Ra forever!
	11:55am rx scabin: F Pizza A baking steel or something works very well and works well for pita.
	11:55am rx scabin: Thank you Trouble. Fabulous.
	11:56am Passaic River Blues: Is this the new Sudan Archives?
	11:56am Passaic River Blues: Also, thank you, Trouble!
	11:56am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today. share the sun ra love...
	11:57am Trouble: yes it's a single
	11:57am Phillippe: Thanks Trouble!
	11:57am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @DRR-short answer not exactly, closest one is 30 miles roughly north. However, smoke warning is yellow in parts of ABQ on green-yelow-red scale for SMOKE. Check ou this cool map and put in 87112 for zip code for my house and you can see it yourself. fire.airnow.gov Thanks for asking!
	11:58am drr: great show, Trouble. I will go back and check the Sun Ra I missed. Wild Neil: Thanks for the link! I have good friends in Santa Fe and I don't know how this is affecting them either.
	11:58am Mike W: Walking m’dog along the grassy riverbank while Sun Ra emanated from my portaspeaker was a real treat (dog got many treats and find-its too!)
	11:58am rx scabin: F Pizza A charcoal grill with a little wood too gets very hot. I have used that. A A Weber "classic" style.
	12:01pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Oh, thats it?? OK bye!
	12:28pm SGT. SCR.^.PES: I’m cool enough to listen to you❤️ •^•
	12:30pm SGT. SCR.^.PES: I was referencing her old tag line…man, tough room
