	12:52am Colin & Eddie in Durham UK: Last time I had an operation on my feet I saw my foot doctor walk into the room, limping and dragging a leg along. Suddenly got the fear. I asked a nurse what was wrong with his feet and she said he was born like that and spent his life helping other people’s feet even though he can’t fix his own, I’d only ever met him sat behind a desk before that, I love that man now.
	12:54am northguineahills: when i was a child, i had surgery. i woke up right as they were stitching back up. thankfully, i couldn't feel a thing.. oh, i had an endoscopy two years ago, it came back w/ a healthy report.

	1:00am prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: Great hour!
	1:01am ami ad: had a colonoscopy a few years ago, woke up in the middle, they had to put me under again, woke up in the smelly room after.
	1:01am alanSixº: 201-209-9368
	1:01am Erik VT: Babs Eden almost rushed me thru my pre-adolescence before i knew what I was ….
	1:01am Hoboken Jack: Hello Alan, Ami, NGH, NYCMnerd, Paulo, HP Ken, Prof, all!
	1:01am coelacanth∅: i don't believe for a moment that circumcision has had any negative effect on me; but i have a question for Joe Jackson: why?
	1:03am ami ad: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:01 cut to fit?
	1:03am nycmusicnerd: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:01 He talks about it in his book. Basically he was in pain during um... sexual situations. The diagnosis was that his foreskin was too tight. Only one way to fix that.
	1:03am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:01 Hi, Jack. Walking tall!
	1:04am Bobby: Hello Alan Six and chat people!
	1:05am coelacanth∅: last time i had a dental procedure (a filling) the dentist dropped the glue directly down my throat, and did not know it. i choked intensely for at least 5 minutes, and she, nor her assistant, realised the glue was down my throat. of course the filling came out that night. ...etc.
	1:05am nycmusicnerd: Alan's going to have fun reading this later!
	1:05am Paulo AD: ↳ northguineahills @12:57 I've done ad to Sydney, that sucked. Also did Auckland to UK.. I was pissed for most of that
	1:06am coelacanth∅: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:03 wow - never heard of that!
	1:06am Paulo AD: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:01 Hey chap, missed you again
	1:06am northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:57 thankfully, i was a newborn for that.... /not even jewish...

	1:07am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:01 Hey Jack!
	1:07am The Gur: Before getting knocked out Before my colonoscopy I noticed they had a large tool chest on wheels. I said I have one of those chests in my garage. I hope you don't use the same tools. They all laughed. I guess you have to have a sense of humor if you're working down under. That same joke didn't work Before my eye operation!
	1:09am arb: y'all crybabies you get to fly around the world, suck it up
	1:10am coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @1:06 in the 60s they did it to most male babies. - like caesarean sections and root canals, it's about the mercedes and the swimming pool and the hawaii vacation...
	1:10am pgalub: Hey alan, JAAAAACK, everyone!
	1:10am nycmusicnerd: ↳ northguineahills @1:07 When I was in college I flew to England one Christmas break to visit friends who were studying abroad. I had to go from Pittsburgh to Detroit to Boston to London. I don't recommend that.
	1:11am spodiodi: greetings, alanSixº and all!
	1:11am Bobby: ↳ arb @1:09 I’m in bed but also kind of a crybaby
	1:12am ami ad: 10:30 flight going home, 11:50 coming back. wawa.
	1:12am coelacanth∅: hey pgalub and spodiodi!
	1:13am spodiodi: aloha, coelacanthØ!
	1:15am northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:10 i was born in the 70s. it was my father's idea, as he had been circumcised himself. (don't know about my grandfather)
	1:15am laura t: hi spodiodi!
	1:16am Paulo AD: Love the fact I can get six degrees on the flight. I heared I was talked about lol
	1:16am arb: are u a crybaby? ask arb (and alan) 201-209-9368
	1:17am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Out On The Weekend" by "The Karl Hendricks Trio" < that record sleeve cracks me up!
	1:17am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:10 they say the difference between circumcised and uncircumcised is like comparing black and white tv to Technicolor :-B i got ripped off figuratively and literally
	1:17am northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:10 I once flew to LGA from JAX via ATL, CIN, CLE,... it took all day. I learned spending a little more for a direct trip was worth it (i spent many nights sleeping on the floor at the hartsfield airport back in the early 2000s) due to cancelled/delayed flights.
	1:19am Erik VT: I embrace my inner Cry Baby😭! - I don’t travel much (always traveling In my head), especially during colonoscopy and any other medical procedure that I’ve yet to have… “fly me” …sigh🙃
	1:19am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @1:17 i'll bet i know who says that! (the uncircumcised)
	1:20am northguineahills: ↳ arb @1:16 wrong topic for me. physical pain never. now that i'm human again, emotional pain, mos def. heck, i've been made fun in the past for crying while watching the simpsons.... (by my former partner)
	1:20am Sam Hyde: Really looking forward to the CD sale at Monty Hall
	1:20am Troy: ↳ Song: "drunk" by "immaterial" This is nice 😁
	1:20am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @1:17 that's like a "white" saying he knows what it feels like to be "black" (& likewise), or a male saying he knows what it feels like to be female (& likewise)
	1:21am nycmusicnerd: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 There's a "it's just a little prick" joke in there somewhere, but I'm too sleepy to find it. 🙂
	1:21am spodiodi: those lucky bastards no budget for foreskin reconstruction either :-B
	1:22am coelacanth∅: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:21 hahaha!
	1:22am spodiodi: I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!
	1:22am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:20 Oh that's right! Who else is going to blow all their money at Monty Hall on Saturday? I'll be there!
	1:23am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:17 let's just say i don't own a gun, or drive a big truck, so I think I'm good wink wink, nudge nudge
	1:24am northguineahills: (big truck = F150 or larger...)
	1:24am spodiodi: ↳ northguineahills @1:23 no rolling coal for you, eh ngh?
	1:25am spodiodi: hippies abound
	1:25am Paulo AD: Can I call in about how much I miss my nyc friends and I'm drunk on a plane
	1:25am ami ad: i drive a 26' box truck for work, say what you want...
	1:26am spodiodi: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:26am Erik VT: I seriously miss my 4 Skins ……….. albums.
	1:27am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:24 when i last had a car it was a subaru forester...
	1:27am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:26 common in certain areas of FL....
	1:28am coelacanth∅: the thing is, of course there's a chance of a circumcision being botched. and considering it's a completely unnecessary procedure, it's morally barbaric. - but the majority of people are doing as well as they would've been if it weren't done. in other words, i'm opposed to it, just as i'm opposed to breast augmentation, botox and feet-binding... but i doubt i personally would be happier if i'd never been snipped.
	1:28am northguineahills: ↳ ami ad @1:25 yeah, but that's for work, not a glorified minivan or personal conveyance where the pickup bed is never utilized.
	1:29am alanSixº: ↳ Song: "U.S.A doudou" by "Colette Magny" many new jersey references
	1:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ ami ad @1:25 haha... there's a certain point where the rule reverses!
	1:29am ami ad: ↳ northguineahills @1:28 hip hip
	1:30am coelacanth∅: ↳ Erik VT @1:26 well since you put it that way... i still have my foreskins!
	1:30am ami ad: Thank you, DJ. Crew. Gots to wake up soon. Cheers.
	1:30am coelacanth∅: (i mean 4 skins)
	1:31am northguineahills: ↳ ami ad @1:30 boogie nights!
	1:31am Erik VT: Tony Coulter sold me 2 of his extra copies of Colette Magny albums (not this particular one though).Shucks 🤷
	1:31am Sam Hyde: New Jersey is a state of mind
	1:32am ami ad: hehe, thank you all. ( i'm snipped too)
	1:33am northguineahills: it's been a while since we've had a circumcision thread on wfmu (maybe never)
	1:33am Sam Hyde: middle name is rocknroll
	1:33am coelacanth∅: (big owl outside. sounds REALLY big. - probably drives a little subaru.)
	1:34am northguineahills: arbfab! /i know arb's full name (i won't tell)
	1:34am Sam Hyde: Stalker
	1:34am Paulo AD: How many beers on a flight is too many beers?
	1:35am Sam Hyde: Jk jk
	1:35am Sam Hyde: Don’t you get drunker w altitude?
	1:36am Sam Hyde: Was that Stan?
	1:37am northguineahills: ↳ Paulo AD @1:34 Have can you counted all of your fingers and toes, yet. If so, give it 6 more....
	1:37am Colin & Eddie in Durham UK: I love when the callers don’t have a question and they just needed a bit chat
	1:37am coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:36 crap. i miss Stan.
	1:38am Sam Hyde: Stan was the man
	1:39am northguineahills: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:35 not in a pressurized cabin...
	1:39am Sam Hyde: I usually crack a window when I fly so I can smoke with my beer
	1:39am wenzo: I really want to hear the arb jail story!!
	1:40am northguineahills: i've been dumpster diving during my homeless years. you need where and when to look.
	1:41am northguineahills: ↳ wenzo @1:39 there's a mugshot of hers on the wfmu intagram somewhere....
	1:41am wenzo: I used to dumpster dive a lot… haven’t in years but I expect that I will again at some point when money’s tight. The only spots I know to do it are Aldi & Trader Joe’s… most bigger grocery stores use trash compactors these days unfortunately…
	1:41am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Colin & Eddie in Durham UK @1:37 Kind of goes with the territory during the graveyard shift
	1:42am coelacanth∅: i live in a college town. it's incredible what the spoiled brats throw out. my girlfriend a few years ago pulled out an apparently unworn pair of tall leather boots for herself and some new birkies for me. ...bicycles, tvs, all manner of stereo equipment and clothes... and of course food.
	1:42am Sam Hyde: College is a waste of time
	1:43am northguineahills: also, if you befriend night grocery store employees, you can get the late night food being thrown out...
	1:43am alanSixº: 201-209-9368
	1:43am Sam Hyde: Yeah college kids have been throwing out perfectly good stuff forever. Boston used to be a goldmine at the end of the year
	1:43am Sam Hyde: Got a free Music Man amp once
	1:43am wenzo: Does anyone use that ap where you get stuff restaurants are about to throw out…
	1:44am Sam Hyde: 2x12 I think with a SS pre
	1:46am Sam Hyde: You know what looks good with a suit? A pair of crocs.
	1:48am northguineahills: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:43 end of the semester is when you hit paydirt!
	1:49am Sam Hyde: I remember it was more fruitful at the end of the year when everyone moved out of the dorms but yeah students
	1:49am Will thee SG OCNY: Hi alanSix° and all!!!
	1:49am Adi br: https://www.vermontcountrystore.com/mens-classic-stripe-cotton-seersucker-short-pajamas/product/68452
	1:50am Spikey BXL: Hi Alan, degreenerates
	1:50am Sam Hyde: As lore will tell it, Billy from the Real Kids found his Les Paul jr in the trash near Berklee in the 70s. My friend has that guitar in his collection
	1:50am northguineahills: i only wear pyjamas when i've hit the bar at saturday afternoon....(and i just walked down a block)
	1:50am coelacanth∅: i think 1 out of every 5 people here wear pajamas in public
	1:50am Adi br: Seersucker pajamas ?
	1:51am Sam Hyde: Everyone in LA basically wears pajamas all the time
	1:51am northguineahills: as opposed when I was in florida, i always wore long sleeves and jeans, now I wear short sleeves in the nyc winter...
	1:51am coelacanth∅: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @1:49 'evening,Will!
	1:51am Paulo AD: Finding an apartment is driving me nuts
	1:51am Sam Hyde: The normalization of sweatpants happened first in LA
	1:52am The Gur: ↳ wenzo @1:43 It's sad how much food is thrown out by busy restaurants. Before Covid they used to give it to homeless shelters. Now they can't. If you're ever at a wedding and you like the food, they are more than willing to package up all you want to take home. Because all that great food will be thrown out!
	1:52am Sam Hyde: Juicy
	1:52am spodiodi: in my day, we wore three piece suits to bed
	1:52am Will thee SG OCNY: I'm up for now, but should go back to bed
	1:53am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @1:52 and top hats?!
	1:53am Will thee SG OCNY: Hi coelacanth!
	1:53am Sam Hyde: I wear a hat to bed
	1:54am northguineahills: ↳ The Gur @1:52 at the shelter i volunteered at in orlando, we got restaurant leftovers all the time.
	1:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ The Gur @1:52 the statistic is mindblowing. something like 1/3 the food supply here gets wasted. people suck.
	1:54am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:53 yes. gold cuff links, cummerbunds and garters to hold up the hose
	1:54am Sam Hyde: Purge!!
	1:56am Sam Hyde: That’s fairly ridic
	1:56am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:54 Over here the 'too good to go' app is helping address that a bit. Sadly the people who need it the most, aren't users.
	1:56am spodiodi: haha
	1:57am Spikey BXL: Alan going Jedi
	1:57am jamesegio: i feel funny just taking out the trash still in pajamas, but in the hot summer think nothing of doing same in boxers.
	1:57am coelacanth∅: shit - someone's sleeping here and i just laughed very loudly!
	1:58am spodiodi: being arrogant is way more fun
	1:58am Spikey BXL: ↳ jamesegio @1:57 Same here. Won't wear PJs beyond the mailbox but i'll go cycling looking like human bologna...
	2:00am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @1:56 that sounds like a good thing though. (i don't do "apps"... but i also rarely waste food.) ...where's "over here? (roughly)
	2:00am northguineahills: thankuuuus!
	2:01am coelacanth∅: Bob Fass checked out in 2021
	2:01am spodiodi: i don't own a pair of pajamas. i had a nice silk set that i drug around for over twenty years. never wore 'em, still in original plastic cover.
	2:01am northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:01 coel has the answer!
	2:02am Ike: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:01 Yeah, per Wikipedia, congestive heart failure & COVID. Bummer.
	2:02am northguineahills: I got 6 years w/o calling into wfmu, and i do so twice in two weeks (also did on marty's show)
	2:03am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:01 i've never owned pjs as an adult. or swimwear.
	2:03am northguineahills: alan, announce bob fass's passing for him....
	2:03am Will thee SG OCNY: a flight, a hike, or a trip to the store.. what are you packing for?
	2:03am spodiodi: thanks, president arb!
	2:03am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:00 Brussels, Belgium
	2:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @2:01 i hoped alan or arb would see it and announce it over the air for the guy!
	2:04am northguineahills: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:03 so, an extended trip to the store? better bring a bag.....
	2:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @2:03 d'oh!
	2:04am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:04 i will
	2:05am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:04 the d'oh, or the announcement?
	2:05am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:03 not even sleeper suits (with the plastic feet)?
	2:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:03 - and y'all probably aren't as wasteful there to begin with
	2:06am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:05 it's a nice thought, but most people suck regardless of geography
	2:06am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "alan and Arb" ⭐️
	2:06am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:05 nope. just the ol' straightjacket.
	2:06am Erik VT: I appreciate the world from wence this wizened radio fan “herb alpert” is coming from. To call folks abt stuff most of us find at our fingertips is certainly a blast from the past. I’m a tad envious, in fact.
	2:07am Spikey BXL: ↳ northguineahills @2:04 can't believe I missed both your calls - will check the archive for this one
	2:07am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:06 that's disheartening. Just Kidding! i'm not really surprised.
	2:08am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:06 i always wanted one, especially after watching some guy who kind of showed me how to get out of it
	2:09am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:08 if you're small enough you can buy pampers size 7 swaddlers. almost the same!
	2:10am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:07 Jedi Alan would then say that the good people are equally distributed as well
	2:10am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:09 olo. :0 noted
	2:13am alanSixº: hey everybody i really appreciate the convo tonight - wish i could join ya but im peaking in here and there
	2:14am northguineahills: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:07 i just picked a random "P" topic and ran w/ it. Alan and arb arbitrated artistically allowing air of adjudication in aaron's audacity. (they did well in getting me to air our some real concernds)
	2:14am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:10 i'd like to think there're enough good people - or at least slightly consciensious (sp?) people to somehow make things okay one day. some days it seems like it; some days, not even slightly!
	2:15am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @2:13 all great, enjoying the show and appreciate it
	2:15am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "pollution club" by "Troposphere 7" cool music, cool album art
	2:16am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:15 thought so too
	2:16am The Gur: ↳ Song: "pollution club" by "Troposphere 7" Was that their Christmas album!
	2:16am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "layover house" by "rain recordings" actually the rain recordings album art is the bomb too
	2:17am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:16 im so stoked for them - coolest family ever
	2:21am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "sweethome under white clouds" by "Virgin Prunes" ⭐️
	2:25am wenzo: Could you wear a life jacket?
	2:25am wenzo: Life preserver… whatever they’re called
	2:27am Spikey BXL: Need a chase boat (or kayak), else you're invisible to water traffic. Said boat could also save your life.
	2:28am wenzo: I believe someone swam the length of the Mississippi…? Many others have drowned… I have an uncle who’s swum across the Long Island Sound several times… I think it’s possible… definitely risky. How strong a swimmer are you… have you done any research re. Currents etc… there may be more or less dangerous places to Attempt it… you would likely be washed pretty far downstream so you’d need to be a very strong swimmer…
	2:28am wenzo: @spikey true… when my uncle Swam the sound his brother followed him in a boat…
	2:29am wenzo: I would definitely do it for a lot less than 100k if I could wear a life preserver…
	2:34am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:25 no, if i could its a no brainer
	2:34am alanSixº: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:27 definitely need a chase boat
	2:36am wenzo: How strong a swimmer are you?
	2:37am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:36 not great but i used to swin across a reservoir in cedar grove
	2:38am wenzo: I couldn’t advise taking your life into your hands even with a chase boat unless you’re training almost daily for a good six months or so beforehand… but what do I know
	2:38am wenzo: (Not much)
	2:39am Hubig Pie: ↳ wenzo @2:28 Start in Minnesota and head for the Gulf of Mexico. It's easier that way.
	2:39am coelacanth∅: ↳ wenzo @2:28 i think the mississippi is around 2000 miles long. 'don't think anyone has swam that!
	2:39am coelacanth∅: (but i guess you mean across it)
	2:40am wenzo: Well not in one go no… but his name was Fred Newton apparently. Tho I thought someone had done it more recently…
	2:41am wenzo: No, the length.
	2:41am wenzo: Ok yea… also this guy: Martin Strel 1. Martin Strel: A Slovenian long-distance swimmer, Martin Strel completed his 3,885-kilometer (2,414-mile) swim of the Mississippi River in 2002. Strel, also known as the "Big River Man," took 68 days to complete this incredible feat, starting on July 4, 2002, and finishing on September 9, 2002.
	2:42am Spikey BXL: For those unaware: Matty's fill in for Pseu yesterday was spectacular. Highly recommend it.
	2:42am wenzo: I guess just those 2
	2:43am alanSixº: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:42 yeah it was great!
	2:44am spodiodi ¿🐁⋎🐍?: ↳ wenzo @2:41 holy wow
	2:44am wenzo: “ a 53-year-old swam the entire length of the Hudson River as part of his life's work: "The mission isn't complete" Lewis Pugh, a 53-year-old endurance swimmer, holds a unique distinction: he is the only person to have completed long-distance swims in all the world's oceans.”
	2:46am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:41 i just wanna get acrss the river i think its like a mile - i figure if i rest and wade every once in a while
	2:46am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" This song is great at any speed..
	2:46am wenzo: People are crazy. “Nobody’s ever done that (insert random thing)” is generally not a safe bet
	2:46am coelacanth∅: ↳ wenzo @2:41 that's 35 miles/day. pretty fucking amazing!
	2:47am wenzo: @alan wait what river are you talking about? I thought you wanted to swim across the Hudson…? “Wade”?
	2:47am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" HS memories coming back....
	2:48am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:47 yeah from here to the WTC area
	2:48am Ike: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" Very nice, like really early Verve or Slowdive maybe.
	2:48am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:46 what are you still doing here? oh, that's right, you dj here... ;) thanks alan and arbs of the world.
	2:49am wenzo: I think you’d need some very long legs to wade that Mr Fantastic
	2:49am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:48 when i was a teen i did a few mile swims in lakes. not sure even when that fit i'd attempt the hudson...
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:49 haha - hey man im just lookin for a quick hundred grande
	2:50am northguineahills: ↳ wenzo @2:41 start in Peru and end up in the Atlantic, that would be a great Amazon antic!
	2:50am The Gur: ↳ alanSixº @2:48 With the current in that river you'll be thankful if you end up on the beach at Sandy Hook!
	2:51am alanSixº: ↳ Ike @2:48 right? hi ike
	2:51am coelacanth∅: - and then there's a giant container ship with no one at the wheel...
	2:51am Spikey BXL: Thanks Alan - gotta jet for a quick morning work call.
	2:51am alanSixº: ↳ The Gur @2:50 haha its true
	2:51am wenzo: Even with a boat I feel it would be dangerous… they’re not necessarily gonna be able to save you if you go down… then again… I’m sure people do it… but they probably train a lot first 😂
	2:51am northguineahills: ↳ The Gur @2:50 exactly
	2:52am wenzo: Have you considered bank robbery?
	2:53am Hubig Pie: A drunk guy inna bar once told me that there's alotta dead men in the East River.
	2:53am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:52 not in the last 20 years
	2:54am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "ambient isotopy" by "c_c" diggery ensuing!
	2:55am coelacanth∅: ...yeah, bank robbery's a safer bet. + a hundred grand is really only a few years of monetary Freedom, and that's if you're sensible. a good heist might get you where you wanna be... in a higher tax bracket
	2:55am spodiodi ¿🐁⋎🐍?: great show, thanks Alan!
	2:56am alanSixº: thanx so much yall i really had a good time tonite - always do but this was dope
	2:56am wenzo: A great perk of bank robbery is you stay in the same tax bracket… as long as you don’t get silly & splash the cash around to much…
	2:56am nycmusicnerd: ↳ alanSixº @2:53 I thought I told you I didn't want to see you in handcuffs again.
	2:57am northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @2:56 depends on the situation, am i right?
	2:57am alanSixº: ↳ nycmusicnerd @2:56 im tryin!
	2:57am wenzo: But we like our dj… I say everyone brainstorm & come up with a less risky way for Alan to get 100k & call in with your ideas next week. Just a thought!
	2:59am coelacanth∅: oh yeah, almost forgot. if you rob a bank, first, don't get caught; 2nd, if you rob the bank I use, could you reimburse me my 50 bucks?
	2:59am wenzo: Thanks Alan!! 🙏 thanks Arb!
	3:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks alan! (and Thanks arb!)

	1:17am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:10 they say the difference between circumcised and uncircumcised is like comparing black and white tv to Technicolor :-B i got ripped off figuratively and literally
	1:17am northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:10 I once flew to LGA from JAX via ATL, CIN, CLE,... it took all day. I learned spending a little more for a direct trip was worth it (i spent many nights sleeping on the floor at the hartsfield airport back in the early 2000s) due to cancelled/delayed flights.
	1:19am Erik VT: I embrace my inner Cry Baby😭! - I don’t travel much (always traveling In my head), especially during colonoscopy and any other medical procedure that I’ve yet to have… “fly me” …sigh🙃

	1:20am Troy: ↳ Song: "drunk" by "immaterial" This is nice 😁
	1:20am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @1:17 that's like a "white" saying he knows what it feels like to be "black" (& likewise), or a male saying he knows what it feels like to be female (& likewise)
	1:21am nycmusicnerd: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 There's a "it's just a little prick" joke in there somewhere, but I'm too sleepy to find it. 🙂
	1:21am spodiodi: those lucky bastards no budget for foreskin reconstruction either :-B
	1:22am coelacanth∅: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:21 hahaha!
	1:22am spodiodi: I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!
	1:22am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:20 Oh that's right! Who else is going to blow all their money at Monty Hall on Saturday? I'll be there!
	1:23am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:17 let's just say i don't own a gun, or drive a big truck, so I think I'm good wink wink, nudge nudge
	1:24am northguineahills: (big truck = F150 or larger...)
	1:24am spodiodi: ↳ northguineahills @1:23 no rolling coal for you, eh ngh?
	1:25am spodiodi: hippies abound
	1:25am Paulo AD: Can I call in about how much I miss my nyc friends and I'm drunk on a plane
	1:25am ami ad: i drive a 26' box truck for work, say what you want...
	1:26am spodiodi: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:26am Erik VT: I seriously miss my 4 Skins ……….. albums.
	1:27am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:24 when i last had a car it was a subaru forester...
	1:27am northguineahills: ↳ spodiodi @1:26 common in certain areas of FL....
	1:28am coelacanth∅: the thing is, of course there's a chance of a circumcision being botched. and considering it's a completely unnecessary procedure, it's morally barbaric. - but the majority of people are doing as well as they would've been if it weren't done. in other words, i'm opposed to it, just as i'm opposed to breast augmentation, botox and feet-binding... but i doubt i personally would be happier if i'd never been snipped.
	1:28am northguineahills: ↳ ami ad @1:25 yeah, but that's for work, not a glorified minivan or personal conveyance where the pickup bed is never utilized.
	1:29am alanSixº: ↳ Song: "U.S.A doudou" by "Colette Magny" many new jersey references
	1:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ ami ad @1:25 haha... there's a certain point where the rule reverses!
	1:29am ami ad: ↳ northguineahills @1:28 hip hip
	1:30am coelacanth∅: ↳ Erik VT @1:26 well since you put it that way... i still have my foreskins!
	1:30am ami ad: Thank you, DJ. Crew. Gots to wake up soon. Cheers.
	1:30am coelacanth∅: (i mean 4 skins)
	1:31am northguineahills: ↳ ami ad @1:30 boogie nights!
	1:31am Erik VT: Tony Coulter sold me 2 of his extra copies of Colette Magny albums (not this particular one though).Shucks 🤷
	1:31am Sam Hyde: New Jersey is a state of mind
	1:32am ami ad: hehe, thank you all. ( i'm snipped too)
	1:33am northguineahills: it's been a while since we've had a circumcision thread on wfmu (maybe never)
	1:33am Sam Hyde: middle name is rocknroll
	1:33am coelacanth∅: (big owl outside. sounds REALLY big. - probably drives a little subaru.)
	1:34am northguineahills: arbfab! /i know arb's full name (i won't tell)
	1:34am Sam Hyde: Stalker
	1:34am Paulo AD: How many beers on a flight is too many beers?
	1:35am Sam Hyde: Jk jk
	1:35am Sam Hyde: Don’t you get drunker w altitude?
	1:36am Sam Hyde: Was that Stan?
	1:37am northguineahills: ↳ Paulo AD @1:34 Have can you counted all of your fingers and toes, yet. If so, give it 6 more....
	1:37am Colin & Eddie in Durham UK: I love when the callers don’t have a question and they just needed a bit chat
	1:37am coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:36 crap. i miss Stan.
	1:38am Sam Hyde: Stan was the man
	1:39am northguineahills: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:35 not in a pressurized cabin...
	1:39am Sam Hyde: I usually crack a window when I fly so I can smoke with my beer
	1:39am wenzo: I really want to hear the arb jail story!!
	1:40am northguineahills: i've been dumpster diving during my homeless years. you need where and when to look.
	1:41am northguineahills: ↳ wenzo @1:39 there's a mugshot of hers on the wfmu intagram somewhere....
	1:41am wenzo: I used to dumpster dive a lot… haven’t in years but I expect that I will again at some point when money’s tight. The only spots I know to do it are Aldi & Trader Joe’s… most bigger grocery stores use trash compactors these days unfortunately…
	1:41am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Colin & Eddie in Durham UK @1:37 Kind of goes with the territory during the graveyard shift
	1:42am coelacanth∅: i live in a college town. it's incredible what the spoiled brats throw out. my girlfriend a few years ago pulled out an apparently unworn pair of tall leather boots for herself and some new birkies for me. ...bicycles, tvs, all manner of stereo equipment and clothes... and of course food.
	1:42am Sam Hyde: College is a waste of time
	1:43am northguineahills: also, if you befriend night grocery store employees, you can get the late night food being thrown out...
	1:43am alanSixº: 201-209-9368
	1:43am Sam Hyde: Yeah college kids have been throwing out perfectly good stuff forever. Boston used to be a goldmine at the end of the year
	1:43am Sam Hyde: Got a free Music Man amp once
	1:43am wenzo: Does anyone use that ap where you get stuff restaurants are about to throw out…
	1:44am Sam Hyde: 2x12 I think with a SS pre
	1:46am Sam Hyde: You know what looks good with a suit? A pair of crocs.
	1:48am northguineahills: ↳ Sam Hyde @1:43 end of the semester is when you hit paydirt!
	1:49am Sam Hyde: I remember it was more fruitful at the end of the year when everyone moved out of the dorms but yeah students
	1:49am Will thee SG OCNY: Hi alanSix° and all!!!
	1:49am Adi br: https://www.vermontcountrystore.com/mens-classic-stripe-cotton-seersucker-short-pajamas/product/68452
	1:50am Spikey BXL: Hi Alan, degreenerates
	1:50am Sam Hyde: As lore will tell it, Billy from the Real Kids found his Les Paul jr in the trash near Berklee in the 70s. My friend has that guitar in his collection
	1:50am northguineahills: i only wear pyjamas when i've hit the bar at saturday afternoon....(and i just walked down a block)
	1:50am coelacanth∅: i think 1 out of every 5 people here wear pajamas in public
	1:50am Adi br: Seersucker pajamas ?
	1:51am Sam Hyde: Everyone in LA basically wears pajamas all the time
	1:51am northguineahills: as opposed when I was in florida, i always wore long sleeves and jeans, now I wear short sleeves in the nyc winter...
	1:51am coelacanth∅: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @1:49 'evening,Will!
	1:51am Paulo AD: Finding an apartment is driving me nuts
	1:51am Sam Hyde: The normalization of sweatpants happened first in LA
	1:52am The Gur: ↳ wenzo @1:43 It's sad how much food is thrown out by busy restaurants. Before Covid they used to give it to homeless shelters. Now they can't. If you're ever at a wedding and you like the food, they are more than willing to package up all you want to take home. Because all that great food will be thrown out!
	1:52am Sam Hyde: Juicy
	1:52am spodiodi: in my day, we wore three piece suits to bed
	1:52am Will thee SG OCNY: I'm up for now, but should go back to bed
	1:53am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @1:52 and top hats?!
	1:53am Will thee SG OCNY: Hi coelacanth!
	1:53am Sam Hyde: I wear a hat to bed
	1:54am northguineahills: ↳ The Gur @1:52 at the shelter i volunteered at in orlando, we got restaurant leftovers all the time.
	1:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ The Gur @1:52 the statistic is mindblowing. something like 1/3 the food supply here gets wasted. people suck.
	1:54am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:53 yes. gold cuff links, cummerbunds and garters to hold up the hose
	1:54am Sam Hyde: Purge!!
	1:56am Sam Hyde: That’s fairly ridic
	1:56am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:54 Over here the 'too good to go' app is helping address that a bit. Sadly the people who need it the most, aren't users.
	1:56am spodiodi: haha
	1:57am Spikey BXL: Alan going Jedi
	1:57am jamesegio: i feel funny just taking out the trash still in pajamas, but in the hot summer think nothing of doing same in boxers.
	1:57am coelacanth∅: shit - someone's sleeping here and i just laughed very loudly!
	1:58am spodiodi: being arrogant is way more fun
	1:58am Spikey BXL: ↳ jamesegio @1:57 Same here. Won't wear PJs beyond the mailbox but i'll go cycling looking like human bologna...
	2:00am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @1:56 that sounds like a good thing though. (i don't do "apps"... but i also rarely waste food.) ...where's "over here? (roughly)
	2:00am northguineahills: thankuuuus!
	2:01am coelacanth∅: Bob Fass checked out in 2021
	2:01am spodiodi: i don't own a pair of pajamas. i had a nice silk set that i drug around for over twenty years. never wore 'em, still in original plastic cover.
	2:01am northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:01 coel has the answer!
	2:02am Ike: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:01 Yeah, per Wikipedia, congestive heart failure & COVID. Bummer.
	2:02am northguineahills: I got 6 years w/o calling into wfmu, and i do so twice in two weeks (also did on marty's show)
	2:03am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:01 i've never owned pjs as an adult. or swimwear.
	2:03am northguineahills: alan, announce bob fass's passing for him....
	2:03am Will thee SG OCNY: a flight, a hike, or a trip to the store.. what are you packing for?
	2:03am spodiodi: thanks, president arb!
	2:03am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:00 Brussels, Belgium
	2:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @2:01 i hoped alan or arb would see it and announce it over the air for the guy!
	2:04am northguineahills: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:03 so, an extended trip to the store? better bring a bag.....
	2:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @2:03 d'oh!
	2:04am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:04 i will
	2:05am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:04 the d'oh, or the announcement?
	2:05am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:03 not even sleeper suits (with the plastic feet)?
	2:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:03 - and y'all probably aren't as wasteful there to begin with
	2:06am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:05 it's a nice thought, but most people suck regardless of geography
	2:06am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "alan and Arb" ⭐️
	2:06am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:05 nope. just the ol' straightjacket.
	2:06am Erik VT: I appreciate the world from wence this wizened radio fan “herb alpert” is coming from. To call folks abt stuff most of us find at our fingertips is certainly a blast from the past. I’m a tad envious, in fact.
	2:07am Spikey BXL: ↳ northguineahills @2:04 can't believe I missed both your calls - will check the archive for this one
	2:07am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:06 that's disheartening. Just Kidding! i'm not really surprised.
	2:08am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:06 i always wanted one, especially after watching some guy who kind of showed me how to get out of it
	2:09am coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @2:08 if you're small enough you can buy pampers size 7 swaddlers. almost the same!
	2:10am Spikey BXL: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:07 Jedi Alan would then say that the good people are equally distributed as well
	2:10am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:09 olo. :0 noted
	2:13am alanSixº: hey everybody i really appreciate the convo tonight - wish i could join ya but im peaking in here and there
	2:14am northguineahills: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:07 i just picked a random "P" topic and ran w/ it. Alan and arb arbitrated artistically allowing air of adjudication in aaron's audacity. (they did well in getting me to air our some real concernds)
	2:14am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:10 i'd like to think there're enough good people - or at least slightly consciensious (sp?) people to somehow make things okay one day. some days it seems like it; some days, not even slightly!
	2:15am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @2:13 all great, enjoying the show and appreciate it
	2:15am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "pollution club" by "Troposphere 7" cool music, cool album art
	2:16am spodiodi: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:15 thought so too
	2:16am The Gur: ↳ Song: "pollution club" by "Troposphere 7" Was that their Christmas album!
	2:16am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "layover house" by "rain recordings" actually the rain recordings album art is the bomb too
	2:17am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:16 im so stoked for them - coolest family ever
	2:21am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "sweethome under white clouds" by "Virgin Prunes" ⭐️
	2:25am wenzo: Could you wear a life jacket?
	2:25am wenzo: Life preserver… whatever they’re called
	2:27am Spikey BXL: Need a chase boat (or kayak), else you're invisible to water traffic. Said boat could also save your life.
	2:28am wenzo: I believe someone swam the length of the Mississippi…? Many others have drowned… I have an uncle who’s swum across the Long Island Sound several times… I think it’s possible… definitely risky. How strong a swimmer are you… have you done any research re. Currents etc… there may be more or less dangerous places to Attempt it… you would likely be washed pretty far downstream so you’d need to be a very strong swimmer…
	2:28am wenzo: @spikey true… when my uncle Swam the sound his brother followed him in a boat…
	2:29am wenzo: I would definitely do it for a lot less than 100k if I could wear a life preserver…
	2:34am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:25 no, if i could its a no brainer
	2:34am alanSixº: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:27 definitely need a chase boat
	2:36am wenzo: How strong a swimmer are you?
	2:37am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:36 not great but i used to swin across a reservoir in cedar grove
	2:38am wenzo: I couldn’t advise taking your life into your hands even with a chase boat unless you’re training almost daily for a good six months or so beforehand… but what do I know
	2:38am wenzo: (Not much)
	2:39am Hubig Pie: ↳ wenzo @2:28 Start in Minnesota and head for the Gulf of Mexico. It's easier that way.
	2:39am coelacanth∅: ↳ wenzo @2:28 i think the mississippi is around 2000 miles long. 'don't think anyone has swam that!
	2:39am coelacanth∅: (but i guess you mean across it)
	2:40am wenzo: Well not in one go no… but his name was Fred Newton apparently. Tho I thought someone had done it more recently…
	2:41am wenzo: No, the length.
	2:41am wenzo: Ok yea… also this guy: Martin Strel 1. Martin Strel: A Slovenian long-distance swimmer, Martin Strel completed his 3,885-kilometer (2,414-mile) swim of the Mississippi River in 2002. Strel, also known as the "Big River Man," took 68 days to complete this incredible feat, starting on July 4, 2002, and finishing on September 9, 2002.
	2:42am Spikey BXL: For those unaware: Matty's fill in for Pseu yesterday was spectacular. Highly recommend it.
	2:42am wenzo: I guess just those 2
	2:43am alanSixº: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:42 yeah it was great!
	2:44am spodiodi ¿🐁⋎🐍?: ↳ wenzo @2:41 holy wow
	2:44am wenzo: “ a 53-year-old swam the entire length of the Hudson River as part of his life's work: "The mission isn't complete" Lewis Pugh, a 53-year-old endurance swimmer, holds a unique distinction: he is the only person to have completed long-distance swims in all the world's oceans.”
	2:46am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:41 i just wanna get acrss the river i think its like a mile - i figure if i rest and wade every once in a while
	2:46am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" This song is great at any speed..
	2:46am wenzo: People are crazy. “Nobody’s ever done that (insert random thing)” is generally not a safe bet
	2:46am coelacanth∅: ↳ wenzo @2:41 that's 35 miles/day. pretty fucking amazing!
	2:47am wenzo: @alan wait what river are you talking about? I thought you wanted to swim across the Hudson…? “Wade”?
	2:47am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" HS memories coming back....
	2:48am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:47 yeah from here to the WTC area
	2:48am Ike: ↳ Song: "flooding water" by "In One" Very nice, like really early Verve or Slowdive maybe.
	2:48am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:46 what are you still doing here? oh, that's right, you dj here... ;) thanks alan and arbs of the world.
	2:49am wenzo: I think you’d need some very long legs to wade that Mr Fantastic
	2:49am northguineahills: ↳ alanSixº @2:48 when i was a teen i did a few mile swims in lakes. not sure even when that fit i'd attempt the hudson...
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:49 haha - hey man im just lookin for a quick hundred grande
	2:50am northguineahills: ↳ wenzo @2:41 start in Peru and end up in the Atlantic, that would be a great Amazon antic!
	2:50am The Gur: ↳ alanSixº @2:48 With the current in that river you'll be thankful if you end up on the beach at Sandy Hook!
	2:51am alanSixº: ↳ Ike @2:48 right? hi ike
	2:51am coelacanth∅: - and then there's a giant container ship with no one at the wheel...
	2:51am Spikey BXL: Thanks Alan - gotta jet for a quick morning work call.
	2:51am alanSixº: ↳ The Gur @2:50 haha its true
	2:51am wenzo: Even with a boat I feel it would be dangerous… they’re not necessarily gonna be able to save you if you go down… then again… I’m sure people do it… but they probably train a lot first 😂
	2:51am northguineahills: ↳ The Gur @2:50 exactly
	2:52am wenzo: Have you considered bank robbery?
	2:53am Hubig Pie: A drunk guy inna bar once told me that there's alotta dead men in the East River.
	2:53am alanSixº: ↳ wenzo @2:52 not in the last 20 years
	2:54am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "ambient isotopy" by "c_c" diggery ensuing!
	2:55am coelacanth∅: ...yeah, bank robbery's a safer bet. + a hundred grand is really only a few years of monetary Freedom, and that's if you're sensible. a good heist might get you where you wanna be... in a higher tax bracket
	2:55am spodiodi ¿🐁⋎🐍?: great show, thanks Alan!
	2:56am alanSixº: thanx so much yall i really had a good time tonite - always do but this was dope
	2:56am wenzo: A great perk of bank robbery is you stay in the same tax bracket… as long as you don’t get silly & splash the cash around to much…
	2:56am nycmusicnerd: ↳ alanSixº @2:53 I thought I told you I didn't want to see you in handcuffs again.
	2:57am northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @2:56 depends on the situation, am i right?
	2:57am alanSixº: ↳ nycmusicnerd @2:56 im tryin!
	2:57am wenzo: But we like our dj… I say everyone brainstorm & come up with a less risky way for Alan to get 100k & call in with your ideas next week. Just a thought!
	2:59am coelacanth∅: oh yeah, almost forgot. if you rob a bank, first, don't get caught; 2nd, if you rob the bank I use, could you reimburse me my 50 bucks?
	2:59am wenzo: Thanks Alan!! 🙏 thanks Arb!
	3:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks alan! (and Thanks arb!)
