delivering on my bassline request! thanks billy!!!

nice show for the first day of The Last HOPE. Tell Jello 'thanks' from all of us geeks & hackers. One thing I'd like to ask him is how he thinks HOPE, & I guess the community as a whole, has changed over the last few years.

I personally love that the early emphasis on phone & computer hacking has morphed into a more general DIY ethic.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:36pm From: Kenzo

Jello's talks (including the one I saw at the last HOPE I participated in) are utterly amazing. One of our great soothsayers.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:38pm From: the Illuminated Void

first album i ever brought

Fri. 7/18/08 3:38pm From: Bad Ronald

Hi Kenzo - can you fix the broken image on the playlist?
the URL should be:
http://hiphopslam.com/bj/online_photos/Goal!!!.jpg

Fri. 7/18/08 3:39pm From: the Illuminated Void

home my mom thought i was satan

Fri. 7/18/08 3:40pm From: Kenzo

P.S. Kris: That was exactly what I focused on during my HOPE panel: Do it yourself, don't rely on the communication tools and networks provided by the major corporations. Once you're dependent on them, they always pull the blanket out and assert all sorts of terrible controls.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:41pm From: Kenzo

Bad Ronald: I'll leave it to Billy Jam to change the URL, or to ask me to change it for him. Maybe he means for it to look like he was p0wned.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:42pm From: Bad Ronald

Gotcha - TX

Fri. 7/18/08 3:42pm From: Billy Jam

please change Kenzo

Fri. 7/18/08 3:42pm From: the Illuminated Void

jello did run for president on the green party platform he lost the nomination for the party

Fri. 7/18/08 3:43pm From: kris

kenzo: so true. I wish I had seen that talk.

I love that the lock-picking and stuff has come a lot more front and center. There's even a panel on Urban Farming this year.

geeks are so great.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:45pm From: Billy Jam

KENZO - if you could change the PIC that would be great thanks!~

Fri. 7/18/08 3:47pm From: Kenzo

The hacker ethic isn't about computers and technology. It's about understanding the world around you, exploring and investigating so you can learn how everything works, and putting things together in new ways. The mainstream media redefined the word as meaning "breaking things," but that's not what hacking is about. That's "cracking."

There, I just saved everyone a trip to the Hotel Penn this weekend.

Fri. 7/18/08 3:48pm From: Bad Ronald

This set is PUMPIN!!! TX - Billy

Fri. 7/18/08 3:50pm From: north guinea hills

Fri. 7/18/08 3:50pm From: kris

Fri. 7/18/08 3:51pm From: the Illuminated Void

Fri. 7/18/08 4:11pm From: ALF of Hip Hop Slam

QUESTION for Saul Williams - Are there any particular artists you would like to work with in the near future?

Fri. 7/18/08 4:12pm From: HotRod

FOR SAUL WILLIAMS: Are there any artists he's looking forward to working with in the near future?

Fri. 7/18/08 4:14pm From: HotRod

Nice one, ALF! :)

Fri. 7/18/08 4:14pm From: dei xhrist

Jello Biafra helped me and my best friend survive the suicidal yearnings of white middle class assholescence. We've failed, however, to become the truly good citizens that the DK made us want to be.

Fri. 7/18/08 4:16pm From: north guinea hills

i'm ashamed (being the music nerd/dj i am) i didn't discover saul williams until dj spooky put him on his "under the influence" mix album for his chain gang track. swirls of cellos gave it a nice edge a rugged razor fresh feel. i've been a fan ever since.....

Fri. 7/18/08 4:16pm From: ALF of Hip Hop Slam

QUESTION for Saul Williams - Do you think differently of Jesse Jackson now after he made the controversial comment towards Barack Obama?

Fri. 7/18/08 4:30pm From: dc pat

Jeeze, I was only kidding..

Fri. 7/18/08 4:31pm From: Ismael

no questions for Messrs Williams & Biafra, but just a big "welcome back, Mr Yams!" for my man Billy Jam.

Fri. 7/18/08 4:34pm From: north guinea hills

wait, gang starr was guru & dj premiere?1!!!!, wow and this whole time... i'll stop being snarky, sorry/////

Fri. 7/18/08 5:06pm From: spaniel

i have to run. amazing guests Billy. Childhood/adult heroes. can't wait to hear what they have to say (missed the first interview). glad to hear you back. have a great weekend everyone.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:16pm From: Dave from ks.

Always f**kin common sense from Jello B.This Guy Knows the unfortunate hard Realty of our sad situation of the drug gang presidency that is this administration.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:17pm From: Sean Daily

Blasphemy! Digital is always better! I mean, JEEEEEEZ, Jello, a few little presidential elections get stolen and suddenly out come the torches and pitchforks.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:20pm From: Kenzo

"Keep voting smart": You no longer can, thanks to computerized voting machines. We'll never know what the votes really are anymore.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:20pm From: Mike

When can we all just admit that politics is legalized cruelty over our fellow man and that the entire system is corrupt? When you vote you are simply perpetuating the corruption, not improving it. Do I have the ultimate answer? No, but I sure as hell know that voting will only keep criminals in power over me and I will have nothing to do with it, period.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:22pm From: Kenzo

(Admits it)

Fri. 7/18/08 5:24pm From: Sean Daily

Don't give up hope. That's what they want you to do.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:26pm From: Mike

I don't see it as giving up hope because there IS not hope of being a "free" person if you continue to vote someone ELSE into power to run your life for you. By the way, I do vote: I vote every time I open my wallet and make a purchase. I vote every day of my life. Stepping into a booth for 30 seconds every 4 years is not voting, it's a smoke screen. But I appreciate your sentiment, Sean, I do.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:28pm From: kris

I was at the voting machine talk that Jello mentioned - we all new those things were chock-full-of holes, but some of the stuff they found in that audit is purely criminal.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:33pm From: dave from ks.

Good BillyJ. boy for having J.B. as Guest, very good information,well explained!!

Fri. 7/18/08 5:33pm From: JT

God thanks for mentioning the PMRC. Tipper's a smart lady, but that's a big mistake. And it explains the Lieberman mistake.

Video games are the modern whipping boy equivalent of comic books. And we all know comic books destroyed western civilization.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:34pm From: Sean Daily

You have a point, Mike. Actually, no, you have many points.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:35pm From: Sean Daily

And this is some scary stuff coming from Jello. Guess I'm not as politically aware as I thought...

Fri. 7/18/08 5:40pm From: esch oder anarchie!

My 9 yr old son discovered "Holiday in Cambodia" thru Guitar Hero. And he's never heard of Holiday Inn .. Thanks Jello!

Fri. 7/18/08 5:52pm From: charles wipman

Listen to Jello Biafra and the Dead Kennedys lyrics made
me try to be a better person every day; happy birthday Jello and thanks for all. Thanks to the WFMU crew, i love this radio. I hope that booth of you stay on the air for very
long. Let's C ya

Fri. 7/18/08 5:55pm From: Mike

Remember when you were a kid and you told your mom that your friends were making fun of you or saying things about you? She said, "Well, then they're not really your friends." Likewise, if someone downloads your art for free and doesn't give you a dime, they're not really your fan.

Fri. 7/18/08 5:56pm From: patrick

billy, i thought wfmu was a high school station??

Fri. 7/18/08 5:57pm From: Kenzo

At WFMU, you need a hall pass to go to the bathroom.

Fri. 7/18/08 10:25pm From: Lisa Michelle

Damn Billy, Im real late, LOL.. I went to see The Dark Knight , so missed the show this afternoon. I will catch up with you later!

Sun. 7/20/08 4:46am From: Vivien Palcic

Hi Billy. I just listened to the archive of your interview with Jello Biafra from Friday 18 July, which I enjoyed very much. I'm one massive!!! Jello fan! I was also listening to the live stream earlier and heard some awesome stuff. Great work, guys! (It's Sunday afternoon for me over here in Perth, Western Australia.)

Sun. 7/20/08 3:37pm From: Bad Ronald
