Playlist for This Is the Modern World with Trouble - December 11, 2008

Thursdays 9am - Noon on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

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

Good Morning Trouble,
Good Morning Everyone

Thu. 12/11/08 9:04am From: scott

morning trouble...I look forward to the best show of the week...This is the Modern World for sure!!!

Thu. 12/11/08 9:11am From: trouble

thank you scott that is very kind. GOOD MORNING ALL!

Thu. 12/11/08 9:12am From: Poet

The irony of your air-name is that your show is guaranteed to make me forget my troubles, if only for a mere three hours once a week.

Thu. 12/11/08 9:18am From: N

Talk about changes. YEars later he'd be licking up Nikki Sixx pee!

Thu. 12/11/08 9:19am From: 55ffrr

Good morning. Is today's show title-comment in reference to former president Ford or the Ford Motor Co.?

Thu. 12/11/08 9:24am From: dc pat

are Vicki and Ergo in love?

Thu. 12/11/08 9:24am From: annie

we can all get on with our lives now, oprah has decided to stop dieting! so much for acai!!

Thu. 12/11/08 9:26am From: Steadman

Oprah has been on a diet?

Thu. 12/11/08 9:29am From: trouble

post fordism is a sort of ref to post monolithic car industry...

my niece's car doesn't use gas or diesel, she drives a cozy coup

Thu. 12/11/08 9:40am From: jaypee

Trouble, I've only recently started listening to your show, but I must say, as a half-assed bird watched, I do enjoy attempting to identify the birds you play in the background during the break.

Take the Common Loon, for example. A noble bird.

Thu. 12/11/08 9:41am From: jaypee

Der.. "half-assed bird -watcher-"

Where's my coffee.

Thu. 12/11/08 9:43am From: tombom

a common loon? yes that does sound like a good description of a noble!!!!!

Thu. 12/11/08 9:43am From: 55ffrr

A great deal of my general disgust and contempt for mainstream society comes from driving my Hyundai alongside selfish suv's, pick-ups and general morons with liscenses.

Thu. 12/11/08 9:45am From: Brian

Yes, great movie. The kid was an excellent actor.

Thu. 12/11/08 9:47am From: Tom

That Flick sounds good just recently saw "HappyGo Lucky" hightly recommended too .. http://www.moviefone.com/search/Happy%20Go%20Lucky ..

Thu. 12/11/08 9:56am From: Ralph Nadar

To make you even more smug, you will be pleased to learn that Hyundai also cares for its workers.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:00am From: Cecile

I think the government desperately needs to bail out the Detroit Lions,.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:04am From: gumby

Mornin' Everybody!
I still think THE BIG 3 BAILOUT is a great name for a power trio.
Cecile the Lions should bring back 85 year old Barry Sanders or something. They are awful.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:05am From: scott

Cecile,any bail out for the Lions would only translate to more losses....

Thu. 12/11/08 10:07am From: dc pat

Trouble, you're killin' today!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:11am From: bzul

Be fun if sports intervention and geography combined to give us the Tampa Bay Louts.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:15am From: detroitdave

Funny how many people don't know that MOST european and asian countries ALL poured money into THIER auto industries. Its lack of sales, not quality issues for the auto industry

Thu. 12/11/08 10:17am From: Cecile

Scott, fiscal or scoreboard? ;)

Thu. 12/11/08 10:19am From: scott

Cecile....uh... both!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:22am From: Cecile

I think even running the Lions under a civil service hiring system could only improve it. "Talent" isn't working.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:22am From: sugarwolf

Fordism was one of those things discussed in grad school that I never really paid attention to.

I saw an Impeach Obama bumper sticker on an SUV this week. Ugh.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:25am From: scott

talent never worked for the Lions because of...dare I say it..Coaching Cecile,maybe you are on to something with the civil service system...

Thu. 12/11/08 10:26am From: Gladys Kravitz

I know this delta 5 song is directed at me. I am not happy. you are so mean.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:27am From: trouble

thanks dc Pat!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:28am From: Uncle Arthur

Oh my goodness.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:29am From: Cecile

Can you imagine this conversation?
"I took the Civil Service test and qualified for jobs at the VA Hospital, The Post Office and to coach the Detroit Lions."

Thu. 12/11/08 10:30am From: scott

Cecile...that's too much.very funny!!!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:31am From: bzul

Oh, um, anything strange you saw over here out your windows, Gladys, was just...just a publicity stunt -- Yeah! --for a new ad campaign...again.....as we were just explaining to Larry, here..

Thu. 12/11/08 10:31am From: dave in vermont

awesome; sweet

Thu. 12/11/08 10:32am From: jvgallagher

Lil Mama vs Marnie Stern - what a great sound

Thu. 12/11/08 10:32am From: dale

Djarleeng, beautiful movie

Thu. 12/11/08 10:33am From: annie

i love it when a movie has great music,, and then you hear the song, get the movie in your head..

Thu. 12/11/08 10:33am From: paulthepostman

Afternoon morning posters AND Trouble.
Cecille - hope you are not being derogatory 'bout The Post Office !

Thu. 12/11/08 10:34am From: dale

never really realized how much like Dylan these lyrics are.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:34am From: annie

i hear PTP, that you are going to have to walk faster now... 4mph... get you all computerized..

Thu. 12/11/08 10:35am From: Cecile

No, actually I'd easily pick the Post Office over coaching the Lions.


It has better working conditions and more prestige. ;D

Thu. 12/11/08 10:36am From: GP

Morning Trouble...Is this Lil Mama CD still available anywhere?

Thu. 12/11/08 10:36am From: paulthepostman

I want some of those paraplegic bouncing boomerang boots!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:37am From: scott

better job security with the post office

Thu. 12/11/08 10:38am From: dc pat

that movie had like 10 Kinks songs in it.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:38am From: Cecile

true, that.

LOL! What?!?!?! A Wes Anderson film with a thin plot?

Thu. 12/11/08 10:39am From: Liz B.

I heard the Lil' Mama lipgloss song on Z100 while I was at the gym last week: victory is ours!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:40am From: bzul

Maybe the minority view but...That puts the ratio of Kinks songs to genuinely interesting moments in the film at 10 to 1.

Buena Vista Social Club

Thu. 12/11/08 10:42am From: annie

Scott - I am merely a conduit of transmitted information.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:42am From: annie

:)

Thu. 12/11/08 10:43am From: GP

Annie..JINX

Thu. 12/11/08 10:43am From: dc pat

ah, I thought it was a good movie.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:44am From: scott

PTP, keep up the good work....you conduit !

Thu. 12/11/08 10:44am From: annie

GP-where i come from, if i say "you owe me a beer" first, i get the beer. when we say the same thing at the same time. i say any excuse for a beer is fine with me.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:44am From: Desi Arnez

I noticed, and appreciated, the way you pronounced "Cuba" (Koo Ba).

Thu. 12/11/08 10:45am From: Pablo

Check out the new 2009 Ford Fiasco at your local Ford dealer today!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:46am From: bzul

Many many thought so, DCP. I just thought it was the Relentlessly Self-Yanking Express. "Thin" is a kind term for it, though it was fat with...stuff.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:47am From: GP

10-4 Annie.....mmmm Beer

Thu. 12/11/08 10:49am From: bzul

This set is the ideal weight, Trouble.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:49am From: Bad Ronald

Moo for a brew!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:49am From: GP

Trouble, what does the v/a stand for after your album titles?
I only know this as the Victoria and Albert.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:49am From: tombom

various artists

Thu. 12/11/08 10:50am From: GP

Duh * slaps head*...best Homer imitation.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:51am From: dale

I miss Oprah's old body. You know, Ann Margarets...

Thu. 12/11/08 10:52am From: trouble

i wish v/a meant the victoria and albert, since i love that museum. but no it means that it is a compilation and it stands for various artists...

Thu. 12/11/08 10:52am From: annie

i think oprah sits too much; all that talking and schmoozing. she should have an aerobics talk show..puffing, huffing, chatting sipping acai..

Thu. 12/11/08 10:52am From: sugarwolf

I still haven't started any of the homemade (ho-made?) gifts yets....craft panic!!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:56am From: bzul

For Christmas, I'd like Tom Waits or Ralph Stanley to sing an "Oprah's Old Body" song.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:56am From: jon

wow this fourtet stuff is great!

Thu. 12/11/08 10:57am From: paulthepostman

Steve Martin once opined that King Tut died for Tourism!
I'm kinda wandering what Christ died for...?
Answers on a post card, please.

Thu. 12/11/08 10:58am From: Cecile

bzul, maybe a western swing number where the guitarist utters a Bob Wills like "Acai!" before his solo?

Thu. 12/11/08 10:59am From: Cecile

Paul: everyone but Patti Smith's sins.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:00am From: GP

Thanks Trouble and tombom.
Sugarwolf..I know the feeling

Thu. 12/11/08 11:00am From: sugarwolf

Christ died so I could get an awesome glowstick cross necklace!! Only 25 cents.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:01am From: annie

see kids don't play those hand-clapping games anymore.. or do they? cecile, i like the way you think.. there's an awful joke about a gallows and christ..

Thu. 12/11/08 11:01am From: Biblist

Christ died to make the Crusades possible. They would have been pretty silly without him.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:02am From: GP

Does anyone know if any the stories on any other Gods have them dying just to save some stupid humans? Just asking cause I don't have time to research right now

Thu. 12/11/08 11:02am From: bzul

Thinkin' on that makes me happy, Cecile...but awwww..what the heck it's nuthin' but a pipe dream. Another Christmas disappointment.

And four-star answer to the J-man down question. You funny.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:03am From: Jim Morrison

Remember, children, you cannot petition the Lord with prayer.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:04am From: pope pious

he died so i could hang out at the vatican. and give me more money please,, plain brown wrapper, please.. wink wink.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:06am From: Jesus Christ

I died because they killed me

Thu. 12/11/08 11:07am From: Big Three Bailout

Morning trouble,
super show! Procrastinating, but loving it.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:10am From: jaypee

Christ died so I could giggle every time I drive past this place: http://www.silvercryst.com/silvercryst.htm

Thu. 12/11/08 11:13am From: annie

jaypee, i wonder if they paint his man-parts each spring like used to do in smithtown..

Thu. 12/11/08 11:13am From: bzul

I have trust issues and I think it's a gotcha question...like a henway, Grecian urn, piecost thing.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:16am From: Li'l bobby

That truly made my morning. I've always loved groovin', but now I understand it.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:20am From: Brian C.

Yea, the J's!

Thu. 12/11/08 11:21am From: MAC

Great set!!!!
Thanks and hope your life turns a little more profitable ($ wise).

Thu. 12/11/08 11:22am From: GP

THis sound be the new small world theme song for the Disney ride.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:22am From: Cecile

jello in bemidji is like eating bangers and mash in London - it's a staple, not exotica.

Wow! I was thinking about that particular Max Roach song about a week ago!!

Thanks Trouble!

Thu. 12/11/08 11:47am From: Pee Thousand

wow, that harmonica song sounds like the intro the the Who's "Join Together".

Thu. 12/11/08 11:48am From: Kevin of BayRidge

Yay!!! I'm FMU stream enabled!. I'm actually getting the Flash(beta) stream which is the only one that The Man (at work) hasn't blocked...yet. Great show as always T.

Annie - However, notwithstanding Royal Mail Gestapo in chic leather trenchcoats, RM is introducing '...A New Way of Doing Things to Save Money' operation, entirely based on a computer system named after a Horse God called Pegasus running in the 3.15 at Utopia Town.

Thu. 12/11/08 11:52am From: annie
