	♥ 1:48pm Krys O.: Sorry about that glitch. Something unplugged. Whew!
	♥ 1:48pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Lady Luck and Mother Nature" by "Roy Head" Mr. Head definitely had that soul!
	♥ 1:49pm Krys O.: ↳ HyperDose @1:48 Oh, man did he! Ever see him dance? Incredible.
	🎸 ♥ 1:53pm Handy Haversack: The dog and I have to head out for a walk and, ironically, cat food. We should be back before the end!
	♥ 1:53pm Krys O.: Take care and have a great day, Handy!

	♥ 1:56pm Stanley: Big if! Hi Krys Later Handy
	♥ 1:57pm Krys O.: Howdy, Stanley!
	♥ 1:58pm Krys O.: I can't figure out why Charlie Louvin is laying in the gutter.
	♥ 1:59pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Fire & Rain" by "Ernie Rowell" This is such a nice cover that I had to share it surface noise notwithstanding.
	🎸 ♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Fire & Rain" by "Ernie Rowell" Oh, wow, K8 sang this at a friend's sister's funeral. Devastating song.
	♥ 2:00pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:59 Aw, it's a powerful song. My sympathies.
	🎸 ♥ 2:09pm yerfriendpaul: Hi Krys O, everyone!
	♥ 2:09pm Krys O.: Welcome, Paul!!!
	🎸 ♥ 2:13pm yerfriendpaul: My mom loved this show so much. So many great characters
	♥ 2:14pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:13 It was a family favorite.
	♥ 2:16pm HyperDose: ↳ Krys O. @1:49 Just did. Who turned on the heat in here?! 😳
	2:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "If I Were a Carpenter" by "Charlie Louvin with Di... imagining a version feat. a guy singing with some modern pop "diva": -If I were a carpenter/ Would you marry me anyway? -no i aint gonna marry your broke ass/you gotta make six figures Let's record it and cash in! Grammys here we come!
	♥ 2:17pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:16 HA!
	♥ 2:19pm Rich in Washington: Hi Krys O! Hi everyone!
	♥ 2:19pm Krys O.: Greetings, Rich!
	2:20pm Mr Fab: Speaking of marriage: I remember a running theme of MTM show was her seemingly hopeless single status. Her character never did marry, did she?
	♥ 2:21pm Rich in Washington: Our whole family would watch MTM every week. Still love catching it on the rerun channel.
	♥ 2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:20 No, she didn't get married, but she had a lot of dates. She was dating Bert Convy in the episode I just watched. He was a longtime friend who was married to Beth Howland (Vera on Alice) and was getting a divorce. The best boyfriend Mary Richards had was Paul Sand as an IRS agent auditing her.
	♥ 2:25pm Rich in Washington: I remember the idea that she was divorced was considered scandalous at the time so they just sort of wrote around it. Wasn't she supposed to be engaged but her fiancee broke it off, hence her move to Minneapolis?
	2:26pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @2:23 Kudos to the producers for avoiding what is now such a cliche, the big TV wedding. This is a show about a single woman, and dammit, she's staying single. Like the Bob Newhart show, set in Chicago, there is nothing really "Midwestern" about MTM, is there? No one eats perogies, mentions polka, speaks in an accent. Could be set anywhere, really...
	🎸 ♥ 2:26pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "Behind the Scenes in Minneapolis" by "Dave Moore" I love this
	♥ 2:26pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:25 She was dating a medical student who Richards was helping through medical school to her detriment. She broke it off and moved to MPLS.
	♥ 2:27pm Rich in Washington: every single week without fail when the scowling lady in the freeze-take in the opening credits would come on, my sister would yell "there's Mrs. Homola!", because the lady looked like our nextdoor neighbor.
	2:28pm JetBoy of Astoria: These old MTM recordings are great. The guy doing the voiceover was one of the big news anchors in Minneapolis in the 70’s
	♥ 2:29pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:27 Great! Seems there was a Mary and Rhoda TV movie in 2000 wherein it's revealed that Richards marries a Congressman after getting a degree in journalism. I've gotta see that!
	♥ 2:29pm Krys O.: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:28 Hello, Jetboy! Yes, I was reading about Dave Moore when I found this.
	2:32pm JetBoy of Astoria: Hi Krys! Yeah, these accents bring me back. He just mentioned the Aquatenial, which gave us Skipper pens
	♥ 2:33pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:29 Wow. Somehow missed that. Reading about it now. It sounded pretty serious and short of what people today would call 'fan service'.
	♥ 2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:32 It's all connected! I was thinking of Skipper pins when he said that.
	🎸 ♥ 2:33pm yerfriendpaul: Years ago, on a company business trip to Minneapolis we all posed next to the Mary statue (with the tossing hat)
	♥ 2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:33 Sweet!
	♥ 2:36pm Rich in Washington: My only time in Minneapolis sometime in the 80s was getting off one plane and on another.
	🎸 ♥ 2:36pm Handy Haversack: 3M! Sorry, I mean MTM!
	♥ 2:37pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:36 !!!!
	♥ 2:38pm Krys O.: Ah, the vastly improved lyrics.
	2:39pm JetBoy of Astoria: Remember the Husker Du cover of Love is all around? It’s great.
	🎸 ♥ 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: Is the woman in the screen shot on the playlist the woman who wouldn’t let them photograph her house?
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 Agreed!
	♥ 2:39pm Rich in Washington: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 The low-budget video for it is hilarious, too.
	2:39pm Mr Fab: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 oh yeah! That was great.
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 Nope, a passerby on a street scene.
	2:41pm Mr Fab: remember when they found that Minneapolis news footage of Prince as a child talking to a reporter. Imagine Prince as a child on MTM...
	🎸 ♥ 2:41pm Handy Haversack: K8 lived in MPLS for ~10 years -- HS through college and past. She would always put on HD's "New Day Rising" for crossing the St. Croix river when coming back to it.
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:41 Right! I remember seeing that. It was so sweet. He was adorable.
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:41 Cool!
	♥ 2:42pm Rich in Washington: I remember an interview with the aforementioned lady in the freeze-take. It was pretty funny.
	♥ 2:43pm Rich in Washington: That MTM set was fantastic!
	🎸 ♥ 2:43pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 Ah. I was trying to imagine her - she seemed like a real character. Did the footage show her house with the impeach Nixon signs?
	2:43pm JetBoy of Astoria: I love that the woman who didn’t want her house filmed again did it by posting anti-Nixon signs. That was and remains a very wealthy part of the city, populated by rich liberals who stayed in the city rather than fleeing to the burbs, and the political sentiment remains the same.
	2:44pm JetBoy of Astoria: K8 has good taste!
	♥ 2:46pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:43 Yes, it did. youtu.be...
	♥ 2:46pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "You Got the Love" by "Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan" Jammer!
	♥ 2:47pm Krys O.: Was and still am a huge fan of Rufus.
	♥ 2:47pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "You Got the Love" by "Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan" So good. I need more Rufus & Chaka in my life.
	🎸 ♥ 2:49pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:46 Thank you! Just took a peek. Fantastic!
	2:51pm Debbie Davenport: Lovely.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: Hi, Debbie!
	2:52pm Debbie Davenport: Hi Krys O.!
	🎸 ♥ 2:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys! Wonderful way to pass a couple of hours. What a treat!
	2:54pm Debbie Davenport: High quality for 1932. I don't know if that is the recording or the computerized magic via WFMU. I'm gonna have to listen to this whole show in the archives. Love stuff like this. Good show.
	🎸 ♥ 2:55pm yerfriendpaul: Thank you Krys O! Kicking myself for joining late. Loved what I did hear though!
	♥ 2:55pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show, Krys O! Thanks for making radio!
	♥ 2:55pm HyperDose: Thanks Krys. I love your show!!!
	♥ 2:56pm Krys O.: Thank you to all of you for being here and for such camaraderie! It's always a pleasure.
	🎸 ♥ 2:56pm WR: Thank you! Krys! Onward!
	2:57pm Fiddlesticks: Thank goodness for the archive— this episode will be a favorite re-run.

	🎸 ♥ 2:33pm yerfriendpaul: Years ago, on a company business trip to Minneapolis we all posed next to the Mary statue (with the tossing hat)
	♥ 2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:33 Sweet!
	♥ 2:36pm Rich in Washington: My only time in Minneapolis sometime in the 80s was getting off one plane and on another.
	🎸 ♥ 2:36pm Handy Haversack: 3M! Sorry, I mean MTM!
	♥ 2:37pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:36 !!!!
	♥ 2:38pm Krys O.: Ah, the vastly improved lyrics.
	2:39pm JetBoy of Astoria: Remember the Husker Du cover of Love is all around? It’s great.
	🎸 ♥ 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: Is the woman in the screen shot on the playlist the woman who wouldn’t let them photograph her house?
	♥ 2:39pm Krys O.: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 Agreed!
	♥ 2:39pm Rich in Washington: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 The low-budget video for it is hilarious, too.
	2:39pm Mr Fab: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:39 oh yeah! That was great.
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 Nope, a passerby on a street scene.
	2:41pm Mr Fab: remember when they found that Minneapolis news footage of Prince as a child talking to a reporter. Imagine Prince as a child on MTM...
	🎸 ♥ 2:41pm Handy Haversack: K8 lived in MPLS for ~10 years -- HS through college and past. She would always put on HD's "New Day Rising" for crossing the St. Croix river when coming back to it.
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:41 Right! I remember seeing that. It was so sweet. He was adorable.
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:41 Cool!
	♥ 2:42pm Rich in Washington: I remember an interview with the aforementioned lady in the freeze-take. It was pretty funny.
	♥ 2:43pm Rich in Washington: That MTM set was fantastic!
	🎸 ♥ 2:43pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 Ah. I was trying to imagine her - she seemed like a real character. Did the footage show her house with the impeach Nixon signs?
	2:43pm JetBoy of Astoria: I love that the woman who didn’t want her house filmed again did it by posting anti-Nixon signs. That was and remains a very wealthy part of the city, populated by rich liberals who stayed in the city rather than fleeing to the burbs, and the political sentiment remains the same.
	2:44pm JetBoy of Astoria: K8 has good taste!
	♥ 2:46pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:43 Yes, it did. youtu.be...
	♥ 2:46pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "You Got the Love" by "Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan" Jammer!
	♥ 2:47pm Krys O.: Was and still am a huge fan of Rufus.
	♥ 2:47pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "You Got the Love" by "Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan" So good. I need more Rufus & Chaka in my life.
	🎸 ♥ 2:49pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @2:46 Thank you! Just took a peek. Fantastic!
	2:51pm Debbie Davenport: Lovely.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: Hi, Debbie!
	2:52pm Debbie Davenport: Hi Krys O.!
	🎸 ♥ 2:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys! Wonderful way to pass a couple of hours. What a treat!
	2:54pm Debbie Davenport: High quality for 1932. I don't know if that is the recording or the computerized magic via WFMU. I'm gonna have to listen to this whole show in the archives. Love stuff like this. Good show.
	🎸 ♥ 2:55pm yerfriendpaul: Thank you Krys O! Kicking myself for joining late. Loved what I did hear though!
