	9:04am peter in SEA: Bonjour Trouble and listeners!
	♥ 9:04am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 Very unsettling when listening on earbuds.
	♥ 9:04am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 marking the time I was right so I can tell the wife it finally happened
	♥ 9:05am Handy Haversack: ↳ sydnius @9:04 You have witnesses!
	♥ 9:05am Acid Cazh: Right channel is still out. I'm going to have to switch streams or listen to Spotify or something :(
	♥ 9:05am TDK60: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 - >broadcast report->: Morning A.C. Right channel out on my radio also.
	♥ 9:06am Marley P. Dogg: Morning Troublers
	♥ 9:07am TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @9:05 ..luckily I can switch it to mono.
	♥ 9:07am sydnius: Droite c‘est fatigué, quelle dommage

	♥ 9:08am Acid Cazh: Δαβμάσια, the right channel is back! 😊
	9:08am bradford: and magically the right channel is back!
	♥ 9:09am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:08 *Θαβμάσια
	♥ 9:09am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:09 *Θαυμάσια
	♥ 9:10am sydnius: C’est toujours Grec à moi!
	9:13am Robm: Morning trouble and fellow troublemakers
	9:16am Matty cannabis: Pharaoh in the am, love it thank you
	♥ 9:16am Acid Cazh: ↳ sydnius @9:10 Bien sur, je parle un peu Grec et Francais, mais pas tres bien.
	♥ 9:17am Zinn The Mood: Good tidings, Trouble and all. All set up here, with the tall black coffee/chicory, smoothie and Gerald Horne’s “Jazz and Justice: Racism and the Political Economy of the Music.” The book’s chronicling of the indignities, emasculation, injustice, brutality, being cheated, etc is a torrent of page after page after page of the suffering visited upon black musicians of that time. How widespread and institutionalized it was is very troubling indeed. Nice cool, sunny day here in Queens, for which I’m grateful.
	9:17am Fred and Alan: Hello Chris Hiatt Strandlund
	♥ 9:18am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Vrindavana Sanchara" by "alice coltrane" There's no Modern World without Alice Coltrane! (Or Nina Simone)
	♥ 9:21am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:17 Good Morning, Gentlemen. How goes it?
	9:21am Fred and Alan: We're working today
	♥ 9:22am Acid Cazh: Right channel is out again 😖
	♥ 9:23am tonyb: May all your orders be “…half pound, normal slices.”
	♥ 9:23am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:21 Me too. Radio's getting me through.
	9:23am P-90: Yes, the right channel is currently zero signal (using the WFMU IOS app)
	♥ 9:23am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:16 Mon français est terrible, mais j'essaye. Je n’ai pas le grec, à l’exception de Science dans l'Ecole.
	9:24am P-90: ok now it seems to be back
	♥ 9:24am Strandlund: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:17 Good Morning Fred and Alan!! How's the weather there? It's a beautiful day here in Iowa!!
	♥ 9:24am Acid Cazh: ↳ P-90 @9:23 Since it's (roughly) every other track, my guess is there's a short in the wire between one of the turntables and the console.
	9:24am Robm: @P-90 the signal is okay on my app
	9:24am P-90: these are Modern World Problems
	9:27am P-90: If the right channel is out on only some tracks, then yep it’s an issue with a particular turntable or cd player or other source, obvs.
	9:29am P-90: It’s fine right now, my cat and my whale are both really enjoying this
	♥ 9:29am Trouble: i alerted ken to the internet intermittency
	♥ 9:30am sydnius: ↳ P-90 @9:29 Transparent Aluminium really does the trick
	9:30am Adjunctprogofunky: Yowza
	♥ 9:32am JtotheK: Enjoying the furniture music jam this morning! Hi everyone.
	♥ 9:33am Acid Cazh: ↳ sydnius @9:23 J'ai etudié le Francais a l'université il ya quelque 20 ans ... Mais la famille de ma femme c'est de Grèce. Alors maintenant j'etude grec.
	♥ 9:34am tadpoles: "David Hockney's Diaries" by the Television Personalities on today's playlist Trouble?
	♥ 9:34am chresti: Morning Trouble and worldly moderns!
	♥ 9:34am sydnius: Quand dans Athènes… 😎
	♥ 9:35am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:33 Ή, τώρα μαθαίνω Ελλγνικά.
	♥ 9:37am fred: ↳ Song: "trois gnossienes/ lent" by "riri shimada" This reminds me of what arises from the phasing in Reich's Piano Phase
	♥ 9:39am Zipperhead7: Good morning Troubled modernists! Hummingbirds are back! Wish there was a way to screen out bees, which clog the feeder
	♥ 9:40am fred: ↳ fred @9:37 I guess I commented on the wrong track there
	♥ 9:41am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:35 Nothing good comes from that! Cleaning hunter gathering cycle initiated. 🌞🚐
	9:41am ?: This hertz my ears n eyes, please stop this song already.
	9:41am Tara: in the kitchen listening and a bird just came to the window and made some sounds.. that never happens , im in the this is the modern world viking ship for sure
	9:42am ?: Oh! Thank u!
	♥ 9:43am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "trois gnossienes/ lent" by "riri shimada" Wild. Loved that soft, beauty intro. It’s somehow morphed into an interminable yet somewhat trancelike Philip Glass thing, but if he were stuck on playing a shuffle. Interesting, though sort of nerve-wracking.
	♥ 9:44am -жеи: Thanks for the missing channel reports everybody. Something was indeed up with Turntable One. Let me know if the right channel goes missing again.
	♥ 9:44am Chris Hiatt: What a fantastic set!
	9:45am booboo: audio all good
	9:46am Tony from Chicago: My right channel
	♥ 9:46am unpopularfred: ↳ P-90 @9:24 it was the right channel on the Stevie Wonder and the E Ruscha V tracks
	♥ 9:46am Webhamster Henry: T_a_k_ K_n!
	♥ 9:46am tim from washington: Hello Trouble! Hello everyone! I also have found Turntable 1 to be a little difficult. I do not appreciate it's attitiude.
	♥ 9:47am drumbone: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:44 Hey, how ya doin
	♥ 9:48am Rich in Washington: I've found that sometimes double checking the tightness of one of my turntable cartridge connections will solve a recurring channel drop. It's something I almost always had to double check upon coming into KBOO's air-room for some reason (maybe the previous DJ using their own cartridges and not being careful when replacing the station's cartridges?)
	♥ 9:49am Acid Cazh: ↳ Trouble @9:29 Your best bet is probably to have someone actually in the studio plug their earbuds into their phone and stream from the WFMU app. Then they can tell you real time when one of the channels is out.
	♥ 9:49am tim from washington: Me! Me!
	♥ 9:50am fred: @Trouble: "oiseau" is the shortest French word that contains all vowels (if you ignore "y")
	♥ 9:50am drumbone: hand raised
	9:50am Starkville Bill: right Chanel out
	♥ 9:50am chresti: I'm having allergies, but I'm in SoCal.
	♥ 9:51am love2laf: Hand raised, totally different pollens, it's the pine pollen that's currently vicious. Can actually see it accumulate on my table when sitting outside.
	♥ 9:51am paddy in matawan: I can't believe I am NOT affected this year! We saw a lot of strange long strands of pollen this year.
	♥ 9:51am Chris Hiatt: I wonder if the allergens are so bad because it's been so dry here in the NYC metro.
	♥ 9:51am Trouble: this song has right channel out @ bill? or my mic break?
	♥ 9:51am listener james from westwood: Oh. gawd, the allergies start for me now in late winter. Spent mid-March 2020 googling "covid symptoms vs allergy symptoms." Each mid-March since has been the start of the season.
	♥ 9:52am chresti: ↳ fred @9:50 Hel L'eau fred!
	♥ 9:52am Rich in Washington: For some reason that Hockney painting is giving me Tati, Mon Oncle vibes.
	♥ 9:52am love2laf: On AAC feed and right channel & left channel are a-okay.
	♥ 9:52am Acid Cazh: ↳ Trouble @9:51 Both channels working fine during Mic Break, and during "erik johnston title track zen"
	♥ 9:52am Rich in Washington: ↳ Trouble @9:51 I can fully hear both channels in this song. It sounds lovely.
	♥ 9:53am tim from washington: I've had chest congestion and coughing for 2 months now. This is my first spring back in the farm belt after 4 years. All the dust kicked up as the corn and soy fields get plowed and sown is doing a number on me.
	♥ 9:53am chresti: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:52 It's the house coat
	♥ 9:53am chresti: ↳ chresti @9:53 And sculpture
	♥ 9:55am Zinn The Mood: Pollen so bad here, Trouble, that a few weeks ago returning back home there was that brownish/yellowish brush collected in and covering the streets all over as if snow had fallen. My kids are suffering pretty badly with stuffed noses, coughing and sneezing. Not so bad for me, who usually gets walloped too. But every now and then a gulp of wind blown pollen dust will reach into my throat and cause a fit. Sniffle…
	♥ 9:58am βrian: Boo from the isthmus. It's a wee bit chilly here.
	♥ 9:58am chresti: ↳ chresti @9:53 And colors, the fountain is missing @Rich
	♥ 10:10am Bernardo: ↳ Song: "in between" by "Jana Horn" ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
	♥ 10:13am Bernardo: ↳ Song: "sleep well" by "claude lombard" Damn I love this song too but don’t see any Claude Lombard on Bandcamp or iTunes 😢
	♥ 10:13am βrian: I'm clambering out of the sleep well.
	♥ 10:15am T GRavel: goood morning all
	♥ 10:20am Trouble: this is the claude lombard record i played @ bernardo; www.discogs.com...
	♥ 10:22am Yetz: ↳ Bernardo @10:13 www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:23am Zinn The Mood: ↳ listener james from westwood @9:51 During the pandemic it was like a lifesaver to have discovered Wim Hof. Began to adhere to his methods of deep breathing exercises, cold water therapy (showers) and yoga. Really helped not only with sanity but physical health. Began doing a regiment first thing every morning that started with deep breathing, followed by yoga and then a cold shower. At some point was able to hold my breath for two minutes, and then take cold showers for over 10 minutes. Did that for a good year and more. Have got away from the cold shower routine, although every day expose myself to a little or more cold water on the shower (fun fact: Thomas Jefferson attributed his longevity and good health to soaking his feet in cold water every morning). Juat recently got back into the deep breathing - and it really makes a difference. Slows the heart rate down (which is really good for ya) and gives a bit of meditative relaxation that you take with you throughout the day. Back up to two minutes this week! Good stuff, y’all.
	♥ 10:24am Vivian: Morning all. Just came back from the vet. Listened to WFMU while stuck in traffic with cats. Calms the nerves for both human and feline.
	♥ 10:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Vivian @10:24 Hi, Vivian!
	♥ 10:26am Vivian: Hey Handy!
	♥ 10:26am steveo: Good morning Great tunes;;
	10:27am Bernardo: ↳ Trouble @10:20 Gratsee Trouble. I’ll stop being lazy and play an actual slab of vinyl 😆
	10:33am Failure of commenting: Yessss Trouble! wish the bar was as good as the musician
	♥ 10:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and party life.
	♥ 10:37am Juli: I’m at work::: Have nothing to du till noon:: So here I am:::
	♥ 10:39am Juli: My heart is breaking my bf needs sun space & I’m staying w my brother for a few weeks till he can get his mind and work together :{ I guess I’ll go format & finish my film:::
	♥ 10:40am love2laf: ↳ Juli @10:39 Sorry your heart is breaking, and I hope diving into your film provides you some calm and refuge. Pixie Juli.
	♥ 10:41am Jason from Houston: Good greetings, good people.
	♥ 10:42am tim from washington: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:41 Hey Jason! Trouble said it's party time so party hard, mang!
	♥ 10:45am tim from washington: ↳ Juli @10:39 That sounds tough, Juli. I'm sorry to hear it's a hard time right now.
	♥ 10:46am Jason from Houston: ↳ tim from washington @10:42 Hey, boss. Desk party for a little bit this morning.
	♥ 10:46am Roberto: ↳ Juli @10:39 Maurice has your back, gurl!
	♥ 10:47am Juli: Ty guys Luckily we still love each other::: J sad to leave my precious room & dogs & job but I love the part of NJ I’ll be in & Finishing the film will feel good:::
	♥ 10:48am Jason from Houston: ↳ Juli @10:39 Hang tight. Good sounds are always in order.
	♥ 10:48am Juli: My job let’s us take long period breaks if we need so:::: We will see!
	10:48am headcleaner: Opening set greatly appreciated, Trouble. Exactly the 9a vibe I need
	♥ 10:49am Juli: Yeah it’s going to help our relationship & Is making music together::: At least I have FMU to chat w!
	♥ 10:49am Zipperhead7: Great headline from Washington Post: "Being around birds is associated with better mental health. Here’s what the research suggests. Birds appear to be a specific source of the healing benefits of having more contact and interaction with nature."
	♥ 10:51am love2laf: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:49 Even more reason to enjoy the phoebes building a nest in my shed. It's been a fun week of watching them. No egg-sitting yet, just continuous back and forth to the nest. Later in the day they slow down on the nest building and focus on the bug eating. Makes sense, it's cold in the morning and fewer bugs to be eaten.
	♥ 10:51am Zipperhead7: Here's the link: www.washingtonpost.com...
	10:51am Steiner: It’s the B-I-Z!
	♥ 10:52am tim from washington: I love Biz Markie! I hate the mall but I love Albie Square Mall!
	10:52am bradford: This is a well-loved record!
	10:53am Steiner: This s*~+t is GRAND ROYAL
	♥ 10:54am tim from washington: I love reading the Beastie Boyses recollections of working with Biz. The stories usually involve Biz going to the store for a bunch of candy and Biz just wanting to sing along to 70s AM yacht records.
	♥ 10:55am Juli: Al is a great musician and I du vocals::: We need each other to make the musick happen:::}
	♥ 10:55am PKNY: ↳ Song: "this is something for the radio" by "biz markie" Nobody beats the Biz!
	♥ 10:56am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "todo gira" by "los impala" Stomping for sure! Great groove…(next tune too). Reminder of having heard Antibalas on Clay’s show this morning. If you’re gonna keep this up, Trouble, I’m getting my bicycle out sooner than later. Perfect cruising-through-the-city music!
	♥ 10:56am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "this is something for the radio" by "biz markie" It was great hanging with Biz right there.
	10:59am Erella: Dear Trouble, thank you I love this song. It always lifts my spirits. I love Mahlatini and the Mahotella Queens and their voices here. Thank you
	♥ 10:59am Roberto: ↳ Song: "double dutch" by "malcolm mclaren and the ebonettes" Malcolm's grave was a bonus attraction when I went looking for Karl Marx's.
	♥ 11:01am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:51 Thanks, Zipperhead. I definitely consider money spend on bird seed to be self-care.
	♥ 11:02am βrian: … except for that one shrill robin who wakes up at 4 a.m.
	♥ 11:05am The Oscar: ↳ Roberto @10:59 I saw both last summer (along with Douglas Adams!). Highgate is such a cool cemetery.
	♥ 11:06am Roberto: ↳ The Oscar @11:05 Word. I also tried to find the legendary Carrot Courage Gunz's grave but came up short.
	♥ 11:06am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "got to be real" by "cheryl lynn" [Jason from Houston singing along at his desk]
	♥ 11:06am Karl Ward: [playing "air house piano" at his own desk]
	♥ 11:07am Shohoman: Trouble I wasn’t in the mood to do housework, but your music has got me going on this rainy morning in Johnston SC Hope y’all are having a great day
	♥ 11:08am sydnius: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:01 my cats will be thrilled to hear that! 😺
	♥ 11:11am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "got to be real" by "cheryl lynn" I luckily got a few Cheryl Lin records for free awhile ago, pretty sure this cut is on one of them. So good!
	♥ 11:11am Zipperhead7: Soul Jazz puts out so many great releases. Every time I get one of their emails I think "Damn!"
	11:12am Fred And Alan: Hello Zipperhead
	♥ 11:13am Trouble: i never wanted to work in the record industry, but I would love to work for soul jazz @ zipperhead. they are amazing.
	11:14am Fred And Alan: Sorry Juli hope everything works out for you
	♥ 11:15am Zipperhead7: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:12 Hi fellas! Is that fashion fascist at work still giving you grief on appearance? I remember you saying how you could imagine him ironing sheets for a Klan meeting
	11:16am Fred And Alan: Yes he’s there today they call him behind his back the hall monitor
	♥ 11:16am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "ring my bell" by "blood sisters" Man, these two great singles (even this cool reggae version!) will always remind me of the end of jr high. Playing a classmate’s graduation party with my little R&R trio, set up in her parent’s living room. In between sets the disco 45’s would come out and all the girls would dance while we watched. Alternating our over-exuberant takes on hard and classic rock past and present, with the current dance tunes - made for magical times…
	♥ 11:17am Zipperhead7: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Ha! He must live with a lot of fear in his life
	♥ 11:17am sydnius: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Sign him up for fetish magazines then use his neighbor’s address
	♥ 11:18am Peter in SEA: Dancin' in the Middle school Art Studio!!!!
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: you go peter!!!
	♥ 11:19am Harry Corvair: ↳ Song: "reach out, i'll be there" by "gloria gaynor" LOVING THIS DISCO SET!! Quite the lift for a sunny chilly Thursday morning!!
	11:19am bradford: I guess this is the part that the DJ is supposed to talk over
	♥ 11:23am Erica from Cranford: Hi, Everyone! Great show, Trouble!
	♥ 11:24am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... From the other room when this record started I thought it might be “Band of Gold.”
	11:25am mt hairy: honey cone from clay was one of my intro's to fmu, cheers
	♥ 11:26am chresti: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... 🐝🧡🧡🐵
	11:26am Kat in Philadelphiyay: Wow what a fun set!
	11:29am Steiner: Now we’re talking
	♥ 11:29am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "lesson 3 ( history of hip hop)" by "steinski" We always circle back to the Lessons.
	♥ 11:31am sydnius: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:29 let me tell you about my good thing
	♥ 11:32am Trouble: i am an educator @ henry. everything is a lesson
	♥ 11:32am Vivian: LOVE STEINSKIIIII!!!
	♥ 11:32am HesperusWrecked: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... My one nitpick with this version of One Monkey is I miss the part where she exclaims "aahhhh sookie!" like on my old 45 of the song.
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: How can it be 11:30 already?! Sounding great, Trouble.
	♥ 11:34am Zipperhead7: Gotta split. Thanx for another exemplary show, Trouble!
	♥ 11:36am Crownless Gander: Bah, just finally got out of all my morning meetings. I can see I'll have to visit the archives for this one!
	♥ 11:37am Jason from Houston: SOOOO GOOD
	♥ 11:37am Jason from Houston: A real delight this morning, Trouble. You are the best.
	11:39am gauche knee: Hey Trouble & all! sorry I’m late but you all look amazing & got this party bumpin 💃🏾
	♥ 11:40am egould: Sounding good, Trouble. Thank you.
	♥ 11:40am DjLorraine: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Haha
	♥ 11:40am Trouble: thanks @ jason! i figured we all needed some super women to remind us of the power in the beat.
	11:41am Jung: This is a new song?
	11:41am Max D: ↳ Song: "it's good to be the queen" by "sylvia" Good morning, Trouble. Love this!
	♥ 11:42am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, especially for this last set, got me through the morning in fine style.
	♥ 11:44am Jason from Houston: ↳ Trouble @11:40 That's the super truth.
	11:45am Panther: America sucks!!!
	♥ 11:46am Jason from Houston: MESS IS ABOUT RIGHT
	♥ 11:47am TDK60: Well. Me? I'm a-gonna channel my inner rebellious peasant spirit.
	♥ 11:48am sydnius: <-- raised on a fifth of Beethoven
	11:48am Kat in Philadelphiyay: I’m in a really good mood now and Trouble gets the credit
	♥ 11:49am PKNY: @Trouble - yeah, that Biz "This is Something For the Radio" version is more a dub version compared to the main one. I think it might have been the B side of the 12 inch
	11:52am Jung: I think this is a good time for David Foster Wallace adaptations
	♥ 11:52am Acid Cazh: ONCE AGAIN, we see the evidence that capitalism is bad for literally everything.
	11:52am Panther: Everyone should strike!!!!
	♥ 11:52am chresti: Also stealing the writer's ideas (with minor changes)
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Really good summation of the labor issues and the intense antilabor practices going down among the "content creators" -- note that it coincides with "TV" as such being taken over by Silicon Valley, VC-based companies. It is their ethos at work. Always denigrate labor, always grow, no matter what and no matter what you burn on the way. Er, or what Acid Cazh already said so neatly.
	11:55am bradford: Thanks as always Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am sydnius: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:53 But but the Business cycle 💩 we’ve been training Hegemony at the highest levels as long as there’s been a week.
	♥ 11:56am northguineahills: thanks, Trouble!
	♥ 11:56am Handy Haversack: Thanks for a fantastic show, Trouble! Down with all the bosses! Trouble them up, Troubled Ones!
	♥ 11:57am Chris Hiatt: Loved the show today, DJ Trouble! Thank you.
	♥ 11:57am Mick: Extra special super late today, but thanks for a great show, Trouble!
	11:57am Gerry from Miami: Sylvia Robinson was the real deal. The first 45 I ever bought in 1957 was "Love Is Strange" by Mickey and Sylvia. Dick Clark nursed it to million-seller status via American Bandstand and the rest is history. RIP, Sylvia Robinson.
	♥ 11:58am Santos L. Halper: Merci pour les chansons, listening from Versailles! I kinda like this afternoon Trouble...
	♥ 11:58am chresti: Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 11:58am Jason from Houston: Thanks, Trouble. Take it easy, radio buddies.
	♥ 11:59am TDK60: Merci, DJ T.
	♥ 11:59am chresti: ↳ Song: "dance beat" by "king stitt & clancy eccles" choon!
	♥ 11:59am sydnius: Fight the Power! ✊🏻 thx Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm northguineahills: i prefer the power experiences and unexpected disassembly...
	12:00pm achtung: it wasn't the kitschy david et jonathan vacation D50 abuse, but something more wicked called Samba Maria par David Koven, mein gött I feel ashamed... Thank you very much Trouble for a great show once again
	12:01pm Max D: Thanks, Trouble!
	12:01pm Jung: ↳ northguineahills @12:00 Sounds like something he would write
	12:06pm Jung: Fertilizer

	♥ 9:03am Acid Cazh: ↳ sydnius @9:02 You are right, the right channel's out on the internet feed.
	9:04am peter in SEA: Bonjour Trouble and listeners!
	♥ 9:04am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 Very unsettling when listening on earbuds.
	♥ 9:04am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 marking the time I was right so I can tell the wife it finally happened
	♥ 9:05am Handy Haversack: ↳ sydnius @9:04 You have witnesses!
	♥ 9:05am Acid Cazh: Right channel is still out. I'm going to have to switch streams or listen to Spotify or something :(
	♥ 9:05am TDK60: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:03 - >broadcast report->: Morning A.C. Right channel out on my radio also.
	♥ 9:06am Marley P. Dogg: Morning Troublers

	9:16am Matty cannabis: Pharaoh in the am, love it thank you
	♥ 9:16am Acid Cazh: ↳ sydnius @9:10 Bien sur, je parle un peu Grec et Francais, mais pas tres bien.
	♥ 9:17am Zinn The Mood: Good tidings, Trouble and all. All set up here, with the tall black coffee/chicory, smoothie and Gerald Horne’s “Jazz and Justice: Racism and the Political Economy of the Music.” The book’s chronicling of the indignities, emasculation, injustice, brutality, being cheated, etc is a torrent of page after page after page of the suffering visited upon black musicians of that time. How widespread and institutionalized it was is very troubling indeed. Nice cool, sunny day here in Queens, for which I’m grateful.
	9:17am Fred and Alan: Hello Chris Hiatt Strandlund
	♥ 9:18am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Vrindavana Sanchara" by "alice coltrane" There's no Modern World without Alice Coltrane! (Or Nina Simone)
	♥ 9:21am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:17 Good Morning, Gentlemen. How goes it?
	9:21am Fred and Alan: We're working today
	♥ 9:22am Acid Cazh: Right channel is out again 😖
	♥ 9:23am tonyb: May all your orders be “…half pound, normal slices.”
	♥ 9:23am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:21 Me too. Radio's getting me through.
	9:23am P-90: Yes, the right channel is currently zero signal (using the WFMU IOS app)
	♥ 9:23am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:16 Mon français est terrible, mais j'essaye. Je n’ai pas le grec, à l’exception de Science dans l'Ecole.
	9:24am P-90: ok now it seems to be back
	♥ 9:24am Strandlund: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:17 Good Morning Fred and Alan!! How's the weather there? It's a beautiful day here in Iowa!!
	♥ 9:24am Acid Cazh: ↳ P-90 @9:23 Since it's (roughly) every other track, my guess is there's a short in the wire between one of the turntables and the console.
	9:24am Robm: @P-90 the signal is okay on my app
	9:24am P-90: these are Modern World Problems
	9:27am P-90: If the right channel is out on only some tracks, then yep it’s an issue with a particular turntable or cd player or other source, obvs.
	9:29am P-90: It’s fine right now, my cat and my whale are both really enjoying this
	♥ 9:29am Trouble: i alerted ken to the internet intermittency
	♥ 9:30am sydnius: ↳ P-90 @9:29 Transparent Aluminium really does the trick
	9:30am Adjunctprogofunky: Yowza
	♥ 9:32am JtotheK: Enjoying the furniture music jam this morning! Hi everyone.
	♥ 9:33am Acid Cazh: ↳ sydnius @9:23 J'ai etudié le Francais a l'université il ya quelque 20 ans ... Mais la famille de ma femme c'est de Grèce. Alors maintenant j'etude grec.
	♥ 9:34am tadpoles: "David Hockney's Diaries" by the Television Personalities on today's playlist Trouble?
	♥ 9:34am chresti: Morning Trouble and worldly moderns!
	♥ 9:34am sydnius: Quand dans Athènes… 😎
	♥ 9:35am Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:33 Ή, τώρα μαθαίνω Ελλγνικά.
	♥ 9:37am fred: ↳ Song: "trois gnossienes/ lent" by "riri shimada" This reminds me of what arises from the phasing in Reich's Piano Phase
	♥ 9:39am Zipperhead7: Good morning Troubled modernists! Hummingbirds are back! Wish there was a way to screen out bees, which clog the feeder
	♥ 9:40am fred: ↳ fred @9:37 I guess I commented on the wrong track there
	♥ 9:41am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:35 Nothing good comes from that! Cleaning hunter gathering cycle initiated. 🌞🚐
	9:41am ?: This hertz my ears n eyes, please stop this song already.
	9:41am Tara: in the kitchen listening and a bird just came to the window and made some sounds.. that never happens , im in the this is the modern world viking ship for sure
	9:42am ?: Oh! Thank u!
	♥ 9:43am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "trois gnossienes/ lent" by "riri shimada" Wild. Loved that soft, beauty intro. It’s somehow morphed into an interminable yet somewhat trancelike Philip Glass thing, but if he were stuck on playing a shuffle. Interesting, though sort of nerve-wracking.
	♥ 9:44am -жеи: Thanks for the missing channel reports everybody. Something was indeed up with Turntable One. Let me know if the right channel goes missing again.
	♥ 9:44am Chris Hiatt: What a fantastic set!
	9:45am booboo: audio all good
	9:46am Tony from Chicago: My right channel
	♥ 9:46am unpopularfred: ↳ P-90 @9:24 it was the right channel on the Stevie Wonder and the E Ruscha V tracks
	♥ 9:46am Webhamster Henry: T_a_k_ K_n!
	♥ 9:46am tim from washington: Hello Trouble! Hello everyone! I also have found Turntable 1 to be a little difficult. I do not appreciate it's attitiude.
	♥ 9:47am drumbone: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:44 Hey, how ya doin
	♥ 9:48am Rich in Washington: I've found that sometimes double checking the tightness of one of my turntable cartridge connections will solve a recurring channel drop. It's something I almost always had to double check upon coming into KBOO's air-room for some reason (maybe the previous DJ using their own cartridges and not being careful when replacing the station's cartridges?)
	♥ 9:49am Acid Cazh: ↳ Trouble @9:29 Your best bet is probably to have someone actually in the studio plug their earbuds into their phone and stream from the WFMU app. Then they can tell you real time when one of the channels is out.
	♥ 9:49am tim from washington: Me! Me!
	♥ 9:50am fred: @Trouble: "oiseau" is the shortest French word that contains all vowels (if you ignore "y")
	♥ 9:50am drumbone: hand raised
	9:50am Starkville Bill: right Chanel out
	♥ 9:50am chresti: I'm having allergies, but I'm in SoCal.
	♥ 9:51am love2laf: Hand raised, totally different pollens, it's the pine pollen that's currently vicious. Can actually see it accumulate on my table when sitting outside.
	♥ 9:51am paddy in matawan: I can't believe I am NOT affected this year! We saw a lot of strange long strands of pollen this year.
	♥ 9:51am Chris Hiatt: I wonder if the allergens are so bad because it's been so dry here in the NYC metro.
	♥ 9:51am Trouble: this song has right channel out @ bill? or my mic break?
	♥ 9:51am listener james from westwood: Oh. gawd, the allergies start for me now in late winter. Spent mid-March 2020 googling "covid symptoms vs allergy symptoms." Each mid-March since has been the start of the season.
	♥ 9:52am chresti: ↳ fred @9:50 Hel L'eau fred!
	♥ 9:52am Rich in Washington: For some reason that Hockney painting is giving me Tati, Mon Oncle vibes.
	♥ 9:52am love2laf: On AAC feed and right channel & left channel are a-okay.
	♥ 9:52am Acid Cazh: ↳ Trouble @9:51 Both channels working fine during Mic Break, and during "erik johnston title track zen"
	♥ 9:52am Rich in Washington: ↳ Trouble @9:51 I can fully hear both channels in this song. It sounds lovely.
	♥ 9:53am tim from washington: I've had chest congestion and coughing for 2 months now. This is my first spring back in the farm belt after 4 years. All the dust kicked up as the corn and soy fields get plowed and sown is doing a number on me.
	♥ 9:53am chresti: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:52 It's the house coat
	♥ 9:53am chresti: ↳ chresti @9:53 And sculpture
	♥ 9:55am Zinn The Mood: Pollen so bad here, Trouble, that a few weeks ago returning back home there was that brownish/yellowish brush collected in and covering the streets all over as if snow had fallen. My kids are suffering pretty badly with stuffed noses, coughing and sneezing. Not so bad for me, who usually gets walloped too. But every now and then a gulp of wind blown pollen dust will reach into my throat and cause a fit. Sniffle…
	♥ 9:58am βrian: Boo from the isthmus. It's a wee bit chilly here.
	♥ 9:58am chresti: ↳ chresti @9:53 And colors, the fountain is missing @Rich
	♥ 10:10am Bernardo: ↳ Song: "in between" by "Jana Horn" ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
	♥ 10:13am Bernardo: ↳ Song: "sleep well" by "claude lombard" Damn I love this song too but don’t see any Claude Lombard on Bandcamp or iTunes 😢
	♥ 10:13am βrian: I'm clambering out of the sleep well.
	♥ 10:15am T GRavel: goood morning all
	♥ 10:20am Trouble: this is the claude lombard record i played @ bernardo; www.discogs.com...
	♥ 10:22am Yetz: ↳ Bernardo @10:13 www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:23am Zinn The Mood: ↳ listener james from westwood @9:51 During the pandemic it was like a lifesaver to have discovered Wim Hof. Began to adhere to his methods of deep breathing exercises, cold water therapy (showers) and yoga. Really helped not only with sanity but physical health. Began doing a regiment first thing every morning that started with deep breathing, followed by yoga and then a cold shower. At some point was able to hold my breath for two minutes, and then take cold showers for over 10 minutes. Did that for a good year and more. Have got away from the cold shower routine, although every day expose myself to a little or more cold water on the shower (fun fact: Thomas Jefferson attributed his longevity and good health to soaking his feet in cold water every morning). Juat recently got back into the deep breathing - and it really makes a difference. Slows the heart rate down (which is really good for ya) and gives a bit of meditative relaxation that you take with you throughout the day. Back up to two minutes this week! Good stuff, y’all.
	♥ 10:24am Vivian: Morning all. Just came back from the vet. Listened to WFMU while stuck in traffic with cats. Calms the nerves for both human and feline.
	♥ 10:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Vivian @10:24 Hi, Vivian!
	♥ 10:26am Vivian: Hey Handy!
	♥ 10:26am steveo: Good morning Great tunes;;
	10:27am Bernardo: ↳ Trouble @10:20 Gratsee Trouble. I’ll stop being lazy and play an actual slab of vinyl 😆
	10:33am Failure of commenting: Yessss Trouble! wish the bar was as good as the musician
	♥ 10:35am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and party life.
	♥ 10:37am Juli: I’m at work::: Have nothing to du till noon:: So here I am:::
	♥ 10:39am Juli: My heart is breaking my bf needs sun space & I’m staying w my brother for a few weeks till he can get his mind and work together :{ I guess I’ll go format & finish my film:::
	♥ 10:40am love2laf: ↳ Juli @10:39 Sorry your heart is breaking, and I hope diving into your film provides you some calm and refuge. Pixie Juli.
	♥ 10:41am Jason from Houston: Good greetings, good people.
	♥ 10:42am tim from washington: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:41 Hey Jason! Trouble said it's party time so party hard, mang!
	♥ 10:45am tim from washington: ↳ Juli @10:39 That sounds tough, Juli. I'm sorry to hear it's a hard time right now.
	♥ 10:46am Jason from Houston: ↳ tim from washington @10:42 Hey, boss. Desk party for a little bit this morning.

	♥ 10:47am Juli: Ty guys Luckily we still love each other::: J sad to leave my precious room & dogs & job but I love the part of NJ I’ll be in & Finishing the film will feel good:::
	♥ 10:48am Jason from Houston: ↳ Juli @10:39 Hang tight. Good sounds are always in order.
	♥ 10:48am Juli: My job let’s us take long period breaks if we need so:::: We will see!
	10:48am headcleaner: Opening set greatly appreciated, Trouble. Exactly the 9a vibe I need
	♥ 10:49am Juli: Yeah it’s going to help our relationship & Is making music together::: At least I have FMU to chat w!
	♥ 10:49am Zipperhead7: Great headline from Washington Post: "Being around birds is associated with better mental health. Here’s what the research suggests. Birds appear to be a specific source of the healing benefits of having more contact and interaction with nature."
	♥ 10:51am love2laf: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:49 Even more reason to enjoy the phoebes building a nest in my shed. It's been a fun week of watching them. No egg-sitting yet, just continuous back and forth to the nest. Later in the day they slow down on the nest building and focus on the bug eating. Makes sense, it's cold in the morning and fewer bugs to be eaten.
	♥ 10:51am Zipperhead7: Here's the link: www.washingtonpost.com...
	10:51am Steiner: It’s the B-I-Z!
	♥ 10:52am tim from washington: I love Biz Markie! I hate the mall but I love Albie Square Mall!

	10:53am Steiner: This s*~+t is GRAND ROYAL
	♥ 10:54am tim from washington: I love reading the Beastie Boyses recollections of working with Biz. The stories usually involve Biz going to the store for a bunch of candy and Biz just wanting to sing along to 70s AM yacht records.
	♥ 10:55am Juli: Al is a great musician and I du vocals::: We need each other to make the musick happen:::}
	♥ 10:55am PKNY: ↳ Song: "this is something for the radio" by "biz markie" Nobody beats the Biz!
	♥ 10:56am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "todo gira" by "los impala" Stomping for sure! Great groove…(next tune too). Reminder of having heard Antibalas on Clay’s show this morning. If you’re gonna keep this up, Trouble, I’m getting my bicycle out sooner than later. Perfect cruising-through-the-city music!
	♥ 10:56am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "this is something for the radio" by "biz markie" It was great hanging with Biz right there.
	10:59am Erella: Dear Trouble, thank you I love this song. It always lifts my spirits. I love Mahlatini and the Mahotella Queens and their voices here. Thank you
	♥ 10:59am Roberto: ↳ Song: "double dutch" by "malcolm mclaren and the ebonettes" Malcolm's grave was a bonus attraction when I went looking for Karl Marx's.
	♥ 11:01am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:51 Thanks, Zipperhead. I definitely consider money spend on bird seed to be self-care.
	♥ 11:02am βrian: … except for that one shrill robin who wakes up at 4 a.m.
	♥ 11:05am The Oscar: ↳ Roberto @10:59 I saw both last summer (along with Douglas Adams!). Highgate is such a cool cemetery.
	♥ 11:06am Roberto: ↳ The Oscar @11:05 Word. I also tried to find the legendary Carrot Courage Gunz's grave but came up short.
	♥ 11:06am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "got to be real" by "cheryl lynn" [Jason from Houston singing along at his desk]
	♥ 11:06am Karl Ward: [playing "air house piano" at his own desk]
	♥ 11:07am Shohoman: Trouble I wasn’t in the mood to do housework, but your music has got me going on this rainy morning in Johnston SC Hope y’all are having a great day
	♥ 11:08am sydnius: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:01 my cats will be thrilled to hear that! 😺
	♥ 11:11am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "got to be real" by "cheryl lynn" I luckily got a few Cheryl Lin records for free awhile ago, pretty sure this cut is on one of them. So good!
	♥ 11:11am Zipperhead7: Soul Jazz puts out so many great releases. Every time I get one of their emails I think "Damn!"
	11:12am Fred And Alan: Hello Zipperhead
	♥ 11:13am Trouble: i never wanted to work in the record industry, but I would love to work for soul jazz @ zipperhead. they are amazing.
	11:14am Fred And Alan: Sorry Juli hope everything works out for you
	♥ 11:15am Zipperhead7: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:12 Hi fellas! Is that fashion fascist at work still giving you grief on appearance? I remember you saying how you could imagine him ironing sheets for a Klan meeting
	11:16am Fred And Alan: Yes he’s there today they call him behind his back the hall monitor
	♥ 11:16am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "ring my bell" by "blood sisters" Man, these two great singles (even this cool reggae version!) will always remind me of the end of jr high. Playing a classmate’s graduation party with my little R&R trio, set up in her parent’s living room. In between sets the disco 45’s would come out and all the girls would dance while we watched. Alternating our over-exuberant takes on hard and classic rock past and present, with the current dance tunes - made for magical times…
	♥ 11:17am Zipperhead7: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Ha! He must live with a lot of fear in his life
	♥ 11:17am sydnius: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Sign him up for fetish magazines then use his neighbor’s address
	♥ 11:18am Peter in SEA: Dancin' in the Middle school Art Studio!!!!

	♥ 11:19am Harry Corvair: ↳ Song: "reach out, i'll be there" by "gloria gaynor" LOVING THIS DISCO SET!! Quite the lift for a sunny chilly Thursday morning!!
	11:19am bradford: I guess this is the part that the DJ is supposed to talk over
	♥ 11:23am Erica from Cranford: Hi, Everyone! Great show, Trouble!
	♥ 11:24am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... From the other room when this record started I thought it might be “Band of Gold.”
	11:25am mt hairy: honey cone from clay was one of my intro's to fmu, cheers
	♥ 11:26am chresti: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... 🐝🧡🧡🐵
	11:26am Kat in Philadelphiyay: Wow what a fun set!
	11:29am Steiner: Now we’re talking
	♥ 11:29am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "lesson 3 ( history of hip hop)" by "steinski" We always circle back to the Lessons.
	♥ 11:31am sydnius: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:29 let me tell you about my good thing
	♥ 11:32am Trouble: i am an educator @ henry. everything is a lesson
	♥ 11:32am Vivian: LOVE STEINSKIIIII!!!
	♥ 11:32am HesperusWrecked: ↳ Song: "one monkey don't stop no show part 1" by "honey c... My one nitpick with this version of One Monkey is I miss the part where she exclaims "aahhhh sookie!" like on my old 45 of the song.
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: How can it be 11:30 already?! Sounding great, Trouble.
	♥ 11:34am Zipperhead7: Gotta split. Thanx for another exemplary show, Trouble!
	♥ 11:36am Crownless Gander: Bah, just finally got out of all my morning meetings. I can see I'll have to visit the archives for this one!

	11:39am gauche knee: Hey Trouble & all! sorry I’m late but you all look amazing & got this party bumpin 💃🏾

	♥ 11:40am DjLorraine: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:16 Haha
	♥ 11:40am Trouble: thanks @ jason! i figured we all needed some super women to remind us of the power in the beat.
	11:41am Jung: This is a new song?
	11:41am Max D: ↳ Song: "it's good to be the queen" by "sylvia" Good morning, Trouble. Love this!
	♥ 11:42am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, especially for this last set, got me through the morning in fine style.
	♥ 11:44am Jason from Houston: ↳ Trouble @11:40 That's the super truth.
	11:45am Panther: America sucks!!!
	♥ 11:46am Jason from Houston: MESS IS ABOUT RIGHT
	♥ 11:47am TDK60: Well. Me? I'm a-gonna channel my inner rebellious peasant spirit.
	♥ 11:48am sydnius: <-- raised on a fifth of Beethoven
	11:48am Kat in Philadelphiyay: I’m in a really good mood now and Trouble gets the credit
	♥ 11:49am PKNY: @Trouble - yeah, that Biz "This is Something For the Radio" version is more a dub version compared to the main one. I think it might have been the B side of the 12 inch
	11:52am Jung: I think this is a good time for David Foster Wallace adaptations
	♥ 11:52am Acid Cazh: ONCE AGAIN, we see the evidence that capitalism is bad for literally everything.
	11:52am Panther: Everyone should strike!!!!
	♥ 11:52am chresti: Also stealing the writer's ideas (with minor changes)
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Really good summation of the labor issues and the intense antilabor practices going down among the "content creators" -- note that it coincides with "TV" as such being taken over by Silicon Valley, VC-based companies. It is their ethos at work. Always denigrate labor, always grow, no matter what and no matter what you burn on the way. Er, or what Acid Cazh already said so neatly.
	11:55am bradford: Thanks as always Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am sydnius: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:53 But but the Business cycle 💩 we’ve been training Hegemony at the highest levels as long as there’s been a week.

	♥ 11:57am Mick: Extra special super late today, but thanks for a great show, Trouble!
	11:57am Gerry from Miami: Sylvia Robinson was the real deal. The first 45 I ever bought in 1957 was "Love Is Strange" by Mickey and Sylvia. Dick Clark nursed it to million-seller status via American Bandstand and the rest is history. RIP, Sylvia Robinson.
