	9:02am Trouble: thanks @handy. could have done without that tropical storm punctuation but besides that all was swell.
	9:03am deborah: Love the art. As They Might Be Giants say, "Keep a little birdhouse in your soul."
	9:05am Irene Trudel: Good morning all! May all Troubles be pleasant today.
	9:06am Webhamster Henry: Hi to Trouble & Irene and to whomever is skeletoning!
	9:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pritty painting - pritty Barwick.
	9:07am lukavino: ordered this Barwick last Bandcamp friday, cannot wait to dive in.
	9:08am cl@m_digger: I just listened to this album for the first time a couple days ago
	9:08am PaulRobeson1920: A warm summers greetings to all
	9:08am cl@m_digger: Someone tweeted it on a list of top electronic albums from 1998
	9:11am YETI BOB: Hi Trouble and everyone. Kerry James Marshall is great - I've seen a few shows of his work here in Chicago. I don't know the painting that's on the playlist today, but most of his painings are very large and are just overwhelming when you stand in front of them.
	9:12am Ed From Jersey City: Buenos Dias Trouble.
	9:14am two tigers: Oh This is grimm. Why such sadness?
	9:15am Trouble: hola @ED!!! how is the family? and my favorite dog?
	9:15am WoodsOfNH: Some day I'll hear Terry Riley and not think "Oh no, something's gone wrong at WFMU!"
	9:16am YETI BOB: Ok, found it - this one - titled “Black and part Black Birds in America: (Crow, Goldfinch)” - is not huge, it's 27 7/8 x 24 3/4 inches. If you are interested in more about this great artist, here's his gallery page: jackshainman.com... , lots of great work there. Looks like he was also featured in the NYT recently.
	9:16am redbee: Thanks Yeti! I've always thought of his figurative work, but this is such a lovely composition
	9:17am Trouble: the Marshall painting is from a brand new series made this spring, on exhibit now at david zwirner www.nytimes.com...
	9:18am BeNowBobby: Good morning What a beautiful song selection already. Trouble is Always on that Top Shelf!
	9:19am redbee: On a bird-related note, I took up some recommendations from you all, from a few weeks back... I visited the Audubon center in New Jersey (Scherman Hoffman) and used the Song Sleuth app to identify a bunch of birds. It made for such a pleasant, lovely day. Highly recommended, and I can't wait to get a pair of binoculars and go back during migration season.
	9:19am Ed From Jersey City: It sometimes borders on a Mexican prison riot with the distance learning but , all in all, everyone is healthy and happy. The dog is in seventh heaven because he has company all day. I hope DJ Ice Pack and Mr. Trouble are good.
	9:20am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	9:20am Pe3ter from Dover NJ: Hello Trouble and everyone.
	9:20am Yes: Morning all
	9:21am Handy Haversack: Nice, redbee! We went out to the Delaware River to see friends a couple of weeks back and saw some birds that are less common in north Brooklyn: grosbeaks (they left here when it heated up), goldfinches, titmice, chickadees, hummingbirds.
	9:21am Trouble: i feel for you @ed... so hard for parents of young kids. my college student is deep in his computer all day long, no social life, but that's another kettle of fish. say hi to nilka!
	9:21am Really Lisa: @redbee, I was going to ask if you made it to any of those spots! Glad it worked out!
	9:21am YETI BOB: Thanks Trouble. That NYT article is really good, I'm glad they featured him. The other link I posted has a lot more of his work.
	9:22am Trouble: merci@BeNowBobby
	9:23am Bennett: Morning everyone!
	9:23am rebuketodali: Thank you for playing this Arthur Russell. I have had another track from World of Echo in my head for weeks and was not able to place who recorded it. Mystery solved!
	9:25am YETI BOB: Suddenly thinking of how long it's been since I've been to a museum or art gallery (something I used to do a lot). Lately I've been walking around the city photographing graffiti, trying to get my art fix. There's some pretty great street art in and near my neighborhood.
	9:25am redbee: HH: I love the Del Water Gap, really incredible birding there, and such a variety of flora as well. I think I've seen grosbeaks there earlier this summer. I've not yet seen a hummingbird on the east coast, that's awesome! Glad to hear you had some good sightings. Lisa: Yes! Thanks much! New favorite spot, and I'm looking forward to checking out some of the waterfront preserves in the future.
	9:25am BeNowBobby: The article On James Marshall is stunningly amazing, beautiful art and artist.
	9:27am redbee: With the help of using the Song Sleuth app, I realized that the hawk I thought I was hearing near me in central Brooklyn is actually a blue jay impersonating one. At the Audubon center I was able to hear a blue jay and a hawk screaming at each other (hah), the difference is subtle...
	9:28am Henry C.: really entranced by that Anika track, thanks for spinning!
	9:28am deborah: @9:25YETI BOB: Thinking the same. Miss it all. Montclair Art Museum is within walking distance and was a favorite haunt, along with galleries there and in Jersey City. It might be a while until these places reopen. Sad.
	9:29am Handy Haversack: Ha, redbee, yeah! Our local bluejay teens have been amusing themselves by hawk whistling to scare the sparrows off the feeders!
	9:30am YETI BOB: (Interesting nugget from the NYT article, if you don't have time to read it: James Audubon was probably Black, with Haitian origins ... part of the reason Marshall is working with bird imagery)
	9:31am redbee: "bluejay teens", haha! Feathery blue terrors. I'll hear the cry and then see a flock of pigeons go scattering.
	9:31am Bill W: hello all
	9:32am HomebrewIcedLatte: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
	9:34am A: I always wanted to know where this background soundscape with the French narrator is from.
	9:38am redbee: uuuuughhhh ;__; thanks for the heads up, Trouble. For some reason that direct URL wasn't working, but here's what got me through: act.audubon.org...
	9:38am Passaic River Blues: @A: The Jean C. Roché records I've come across are pretty good. Regarding Audubon and the sometimes sordid backstories of many of the eponymous names of beloved American birds: www.washingtonpost.com... matthewhalley.wordpress.com...
	9:39am Melmoth: I recognize this tune from somewhere...
	9:40am Trouble: bird records i use are 10" recordings by Jean Claude Roché.
	9:40am BeNowBobby: Marshall also talks about the "plane" with regard to his paintings which refers to Perspective, the imaginary line corresponding to viewers line of sight perpendicular to the viewers line of sight. if that makes sense... too many art history classes
	9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thot it might be riffing on 'Summertime' - & beautifully...
	9:41am YETI BOB: @Trouble: Letter sent, donation made!! Thanks for bringing this to attention. As redbee pointed out act.audubon.org is not 100% right but anyone with a brain can find it off the main audubon.org page.
	9:41am jt: Along the forrest trail, during lulls in bird sightings, it often comes up that JJ Audubon was ALSO shooting the birds in order to get all the details right in his depictions of them..
	9:42am YETI BOB: @RR1163: Tune of "Summertime" itself is lifted from a Ukrainian lullaby! (By a Jewish songwriter trying to create a Negro spiritual...)
	9:42am SeanG: morning Trouble and all
	9:43am JG: @Melmoth- the flute part is similar to Jethro Tull's Bouree
	9:43am BeNowBobby: Nana Adjoa's song is still in my head. I had to grab it off Bandcamp. <3
	9:43am Trouble: amazing children's book that gives insight to audubon's life and how he worked: " the boy who drew birds" by Jacqueline Davies
	9:44am Melmoth: Rabbit, I think your right, it’s very similar to Gershwin’s summertime
	9:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fascinating Yeti ! I love the fusion that Gershwin was & how it could only happen in NYC & then. 'canto de xango' implies maybe a chant for a Vodun loa ??...
	9:45am BeNowBobby: Have a bird on my fire escape who can't fly. they lived in my little birdhouse off apartment window... I think he fell out of birdhouse and parents were feeding him last night and this morning. Hope she gonna be ok
	9:46am A: Thanks Trouble!
	9:46am Pale Son: Morning, everyone! Joined late, but I'm digging this dub.
	9:47am jt: @BeNowBobby I read those birds usually figure it out w/o any human help.. keep the cat away and it should do ok.
	9:48am PaulRobeson1920: O my yes keep those cats inside!
	9:49am βrian: I've risen from the crypt. What a beautiful day.
	9:49am BeNowBobby: jt: ty yea I just watched from window, so thanks so much I'll let nature do its thing. I'm glad she up high on fire escape safe from Predators.
	9:50am YETI BOB: BeNowBobby: If the parents are feeding the baby bird, that's a good sign.
	9:52am YETI BOB: BeNowBobby: Does the bird have a comfortable spot on the fire escape? I've rescued a few baby birds and generally what I do is make a temporary "nest" for them out of a basket or bowl and some rags. If the parents know where the baby is, it usually works out OK.
	9:52am BeNowBobby: Yeti- right? I thought so too and she is spunky chirping loud and strong has energy just can't fly yet she not that small. I thought it was a good sign too. Thanks Yeti I heard her all night out my window, poor little thing.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: Gah, Trouble, somehow I ended up with back-to-back meetings this morning. Blargh. The show has been sounding great. I want to hope I'll be back before the end ... but I'm low on hope this week. At any road, thanks, Trouble! As always!
	9:54am gilmour: Good Morning. I'm glad to be listening. I hope you enjoyed your day off last week. Thanks, Trouble, for the Zadie Smith rec, some really great stories in there and maybe not something I would have read on on my own. I've just started Lincoln on the Verge by Ted Widmer (another NYer "briefly noted") -- it's very good and seems extremely relevant to current political circumstances; i'm learning a lot
	9:54am WoodsOfNH: Yeah, I have my daily 10AM "standup." I'll be sitting down, because I'm SUCH a rebel.
	9:54am BeNowBobby: Yeti I can def do that for bird I'll put in corner she scares me she gonna try to jump off and fly when parents leave to get more food she wants to follow them. Gonna make a little bird nest. Thanks so much Yeti
	9:55am Yes: enjoying the souvenir bounciness
	9:55am WoodsOfNH: @Trouble Started reading Invisible Man last night. Man, that Mr. Ellison had too many brains in his head. Just the introduction felt like a workout!
	9:55am gilmour: oh and we're not big game people, but we recently got the game Wingspan, and might be slightly obsessed with collecting birds now
	9:56am Priscilla: Oh this takes me back!
	9:57am Trouble: @woods of NH: we just bought that book! dj icepack and I are going to read it: mini book club ongoing...
	9:58am WoodsOfNH: @Trouble I've been meaning to read it for years. We have Juneteenth which I haven't read because I keep thinking I should read Invisible Man first. Really looking forward to it.
	10:00am Todd-a-o: Nice space farts
	10:01am ratso: Digging this set, Trouble.
	10:02am Trouble: gracias@ratso
	10:05am jt: "Invisible Man " Ellison coincidence..also just started reading it, a much marked up paper-back copy.. He is an amazing writer, not light reading at all. My partner is going through Octavia E. Butler books, so I decided to start earlier on the timeline w/ Ellison. Nabokov, never one to praise other writers, spoke of him highly... so I read on.
	10:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always loved good Dubs.
	10:06am deborah: @gilmour: Best Zadie Smith is White Teeth.
	10:07am northguineahills: About to go out and enumerate my community for the Census....
	10:08am YETI BOB: I want to be M.C. Squared. (Somebody must have done that already, right?)
	10:08am βrian: We haven't seen any census mailings at all. Been in the same location for 11 years, too.
	10:08am Justin B.: Thank you for the census plug :)
	10:09am TDK60: Save the post office.
	10:09am gilmour: deborah, thanks
	10:09am Doug in JC: I think I've mentioned it before? Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk. A funny novel of animal revenge
	10:10am Trouble: 2020census.gov
	10:11am Lucky: @Brian - Even if you did not receive an invitation to respond from the Census Bureau, you may respond online. Call 844-330-2020 and they will set you up with a Census ID number.
	10:13am BeNowBobby: I put a nice very low bowl/plate full of clean but older rags, she was hiding in corner of fire escape. Hopefully she willl find it and relax and heal up her parents feed her.
	10:13am kayt: bom dia touble kahn-too gee shan-goo
	10:13am ami ad: Chirps ahoy,got locked outside the building for 2 hours or so,yep.
	10:13am Bill W: Metafiction reading: MEMOIRS AND MISINFORMATION by Jim Carrey (yes that one) and Dana Vachon. A numbed, dysfunctional movie star named Jim Carrey gets caught up in a bad marriage, a biopic of Chairman Mao written by Charlie Kaufman, and an apocalyptic battle with invading reptilian aliens in Malibu.
	10:14am Trouble: bom dia@kayt!! nice to hear you are still listening! hope you are well!
	10:14am BeNowBobby: Oh and radio on in room near her window so she can hear the show too. Its very low, maybe she likes the bird sounds.
	10:15am Passaic River Blues: @Doug in JC: I ordered Tokarczuk's book yesterday! I'm almost positive I first learned of it via WFMU, perhaps it was your prior recommendation.
	10:15am northguineahills: Beuatify Junkyards, rerminds me of Espers....
	10:16am YETI BOB: @BeNowBobby: Sounds good. Keep us updated!
	10:17am mb: Hola Trouble. Good morning, all.
	10:17am Trouble: good morning @bill W!
	10:17am Doug in JC: @PRB Maybe! You'll have to let me know what you think.
	10:18am Todd-a-o: Nice set!!!
	10:19am Ike: @Bill W, how is that? I saw that and wondered if Jim Carrey was just trying to do a Charlie Kaufman knockoff.
	10:19am lukavino: when i hear herb albert or even see his name, all i can think about is how mad he got when he saw soul asylum's album art for Clam Dip and Other Delights.
	10:20am gilmour: wild thumpy thunder looped with trumpets and timbalis
	10:21am sphere: herb alpert? go figure.
	10:21am Listener Gregory: I was sent to a dental specialist who had a trumpet autographed by Herb Alpert on display in his treatment room. This worried me.
	10:21am Trouble: thanks@ todd-a-o
	10:24am Bill W: @Ike I'm not sure what the parameters of a Kaufman knockoff would be, but I enjoyed the book, particularly the seething hatred it has for Disney.
	10:31am WoodsOfNH: I have an album of Whipped Cream & Other Delights remixes. Really fun.
	10:31am Snoochienucci: awesome stuff today Trouble! feel like Jungle's "Drops" would fit nicely into either of these first sets. Much love to all the commenters, another busy day here for me
	10:34am Trouble: thanks@snoochienucci
	10:37am TDK60: Fine show, Trouble. Glad it's cooled down some in NYC/NJ.
	10:37am Passaic River Blues: @Listener Gregory: hahahaha
	10:38am northguineahills: bombo estero!
	10:38am Ike: Audiobook recommendation: "Sigh, Gone" by Phuc Tran, a memoir of being an immigrant kid in PA in the 80s. If you're having trouble paying attention due to quarantine brain, this is good, since it's a series of funny, sad episodic segments, well-told, but also all connected. Great narration.
	10:41am northguineahills: @WoodsOfNH: There was a gallery exhibit in 2003 called the "LP show'. Musicians and artists put together album covers. Christian Marclay used "whipped cream and other delights" and other album covers that copied/parodied it to make a pixelated image of the original album cover from afar. (there were scores of non-Herb Alpert covers used, many I've never seen since....
	10:41am Trouble: merci@tdk60. me too!
	10:43am BeNowBobby: This astral black song is lit damn love that track
	10:43am dougseidel: don't be saying "pee pee"!
	10:43am WoodsOfNH: @northguineahills Pretty cool!
	10:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Quarantine brain ! I was starting to benefit from Buddhist podcasts from Audio Dharma (download some Silence ??) ...& somehow being locked down @ home with nothing but time destroyed my attention span - like @ first dealing with symptoms, I believe - & just clinging to News reports ...like Just Get Thru This ...we thot it might pass in a few months & maybe come back in Autumn ...it just got bigger from misdirection ...
	10:48am gilmour: this is now officially the soundtrack for the lincoln biography i'm reading. how long, indeed
	10:48am Hubig Pie: I for one really enjoy Herb's collaboration with Public Enemy
	10:48am northguineahills: I got approved to do Census interviews in Spanish as I'm bilingual.(well, my wife says I speak gringo spanglish)
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& I still really have no idea what the Whipped Cream albums sounds like! Alpert in general more about arrangements than playing? A distinct sound of the 1960s... He's the A in A&M records ?
	10:50am sphere: Yep, he is the A in A&M.
	10:50am northguineahills: @Hubig Pie: that PE/Alpert remix was done by Evolution Control Committee.
	10:50am WoodsOfNH: @RRNov63 Oh, I bet you'd recognize "A Taste Of Honey"
	10:51am northguineahills: (I have the 45...)
	10:51am Hubig Pie: Ja NGH, and it's a riot
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would love to get paid helping Polls on my B-Day ! : D ...I imagine in our little town there's a cadre of old ladies who got it sewn up - but maybe not...
	10:52am Trouble: old peeps are backing out@revrabitnov: that's why there is a shortage! do it!! it's a trip!
	10:54am Dean from Old Bridge: Surprised in the three years I’ve been listening to William Onyeabor, this is the first time a I’ve heard him played on WFMU
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being Public is a pandemic risk - right... for any of us - of any age. Those ladies are always nice to me when Voting - actually...
	10:55am Trouble: @dean from old bridge: i play him all the time, as do many wfmu dj's...
	10:56am northguineahills: @Dean: I discovered Onyeabor from WFMU and The Wire simulateneously I believe when the first reissue came out. (I believe it was Scott Williams first, then Trouble).
	10:58am Adrian in London: Hello, late, from blissfully rainy London. By rainy I mean monsoon.
	11:00am BeNowBobby: I skimmed through the Astralblack cd on Bandcamp I downloaded. Wow and wow !!! This gonna be a fun record. TY Trouble!!!
	11:00am Pale Son: Do I hear Eno's voice in there?
	11:00am Yes: sounds like it
	11:00am Trouble: sorry about that @ adrian. it is raining hear, and it's a nice rain as opposed to most of the ferocious, flooding rains we have had this summer. although there is a flash flood warning, so someone somewhere is getting it downpour stylee
	11:01am BeNowBobby: What does freedom mean to you? Nina Simone - "NO FEAR, NO FEAR!"
	11:02am YETI BOB: @PaleSon: Looking at the credits for this album - Eno is credited with backing vocals. And Robert Palmer (Addicted to Love) is credited with percussion. Really??
	11:03am Pale Son: @Yeti Ha ha! Must've stopped by the studio one day.
	11:04am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw online Edinburgh had flooding. Been some compelling documentation of what rising sea levels are meaning for London.
	11:06am wizard frog: wonder what they call Bonjela cream in Portuguese countries ^o^
	11:06am BeNowBobby: Now I just downloaded that William Onyearbor track that sounded amazing.
	11:07am Pale Son: Aha!
	11:08am Listener Gregory: Trouble, is it Robert Palmer the singer or the music critic?
	11:08am YETI BOB: "Silver and Gold" by Onyeabor is my favorite.
	11:08am Pale Son: I think "Alabama" actually came after "Sweet Home...". It was a back-and-forth kinda thing.
	11:09am YETI BOB: Gregory - the "Addicted to Love" singer.
	11:09am Pale Son: Nope, I'm wrong. Trouble was right.
	11:09am Davec1: Robert Palmer....what a guy...I’m sneaking sally thru the alley....
	11:10am BeNowBobby: Thanks Yeti Im gonna grab that record. Love finding new Gems! TY
	11:10am YETI BOB: I wonder if he ever got help for that addiction.
	11:10am Listener Gregory: @Yeti B, yikes! The critic actually played clarinet on an Ornette Coleman album once, so it's not out of the question.
	11:11am Hubig Pie: Angelique Kidjo does a great take on Listening Wind off Remain in Light
	11:13am YETI BOB: Hubig: That entire Kidjo album is GREAT. I can't really listen to the Talking Heads records any more (overexposure), but I can listen to Angelique Kidjo's version all day long.
	11:14am Trouble: robert palmer the musician @ listener gregory
	11:14am BeNowBobby: grabbed his discography on PBay. Naughty but so nice. I ask forgiveness
	11:15am Hubig Pie: Yeti B. , I'll have to give the rest of it a listen
	11:16am Frank's Brain: Native of Portugal, here. "D" is "D." no matter what. Brazilian Portuguese has heavy African influence in the spoken language. So, difference is mostly about phonetics, not structure. Basically, it's Portuguese with some jazz added to the mix, making it a bit more melodic....and less rigid.
	11:17am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Trouble and all, just in time to can't get enough
	11:18am northguineahills: @Frank's Brain: Not a Lusophone, but I can speak espanol, but when I hear Brazilian Portuguese vs Iberian Portuguese, it always confuses me...
	11:19am northguineahills: (Large Brazilian population here in central FL)
	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kidjo adds Jazz to the Talking Heads! Haven't got enuff of that yet...
	11:20am Adrian in London: @trouble It’s been so hot here for about a week, and there’s been no breeze so it’s been hard to sleep. Things are suddenly much cooler, which is lovely.
	11:21am Trouble: obrigada@frank's brain!
	11:21am winston legthigh: any brazilian restaurant recommendations in central FL @northguineahills?
	11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously here in New Hampshuh I say I hate Winter - but I fear climate change putting us above the human Heat Index as a New Abnormal...
	11:23am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and schizophones. Just getting tuned in here.
	11:24am Alison in London: It is no trouble at all to listen to Trouble.
	11:25am Rich in Bristol: Seamless transition. Lovely bit of business from Trouble.
	11:26am northguineahills: @winston legthigh: there's one across the street from my hotel on International Dr, but I haven't tried it as I'm skint, and I only eat meat maybe once a month. (I'm in the middle of moving). (I miss the Brazilian restaurants in Sunnyside/Corona Queesns.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so seems as if the whole World swelters - & there's one little girl with pigtails doing anything about it..
	11:28am TDK60: Actually, whole lot more people, scientists and activists, than one Scandinavian.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Optics...
	11:30am northguineahills: Osbourne Rudduck at the controls!
	11:30am winston legthigh: ty @northguineahills. i dont get over to orlando much (I4 nightmare), but look forward to nice restaurants again
	11:30am jt: Revolution Rabbit Nov63: "...so seems as if the whole World swelters - & there's one little girl with pigtails doing anything about it.. " lol's feels that way ! despite the fact she inspired millions, remember: walk -out-Friday's? ...hopefully her generation will get it right...
	11:30am mb: Irie vibes, DJ. Long live the King!
	11:32am ami ad: Hey,so,it seems Israel and the U.A.E has signed a Peace agreement today. JobLess.
	11:32am winston legthigh: thanks trouble, happy day everybody!
	11:32am spodiodi: good morning, Trouble, Mods. sounds like a good place to get irie
	11:33am northguineahills: @winston: I split my time b/tn Gainesville and Orlando.
	11:34am northguineahills: Prince Jazzbo!
	11:35am winston legthigh: florida gator connection @northguineahills? full disclosure, im a noles fan ;)
	11:40am northguineahills: @winston: I did my undergrad at UF, and my MA at CUNY-Hunter (NYC), and then spent 16 years up there, before coming back down to work at an environmental science startup before DeSantis slashed the Everglades restoration budget. Now, just underemployed. (I actually have a Gators facemask a friend made for me, out of the other generic ones I have). I used to have friends that lived in Tally, and used to visit often, but almost all of them left.
	11:41am Jason from Houston: (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ ♫
	11:43am spodiodi: birds are stepping all over Trouble
	11:43am spodiodi: pipe down with those tweets, boids
	11:45am listener james from westwood: Clay's show was a gem!
	11:45am mb: Shoutouts to DJ Clay!
	11:46am northguineahills: Gary Sullivan filled in for Jeff Sarge last Saturday and did an amazing 3 hour dub set. Available in his archives (can be found in the Give the Drummer Some schedule)
	11:47am northguineahills: Buy stamps!
	11:48am TDK60: There are several postal unions. The American Postal Workers Union -APWU- site has some articles/statements on this crisis.
	11:48am wizard frog: Blessed be that dirt road Utah postman
	11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: When I send packages, I use the post office instead of the various shipping companies that are out there.
	11:49am The Butterman: I can’t believe my luck to just now find that Clay’s Pounding System was a reggae show! I’m shaking with excitement! Was he on in the middle of the night?
	11:49am northguineahills: Don't forget that Congress mandated that the USPS fund a retirement fund for 75 years, something no other federal or private agency ever had to fund (hence their funding shortage).
	11:51am dave wuz here: does buying stamps actually help the situation?
	11:52am Stanley: Hi Trouble and everyone. Please don't understimate the effect of the US on the rest of the world. For the sake of the whole world, please register, if you haven't done so and vote for a change in government.
	11:52am Corey: Have always been impressed with the consistency and scope of the USPS. Have had significantly more bad experiences with private carriers.
	11:52am Rich in Bristol: When you're buying stamps from your Post Office, make sure to check out their variety of gimmicky alternative ones. I recently received a sweet Star Trek stamp from my buddy in NYC.
	11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Hip hop DJ stamps are available. store.usps.com...
	11:54am Trouble: yes buying stamps helps. write your representatives and tell them to save the PO
	11:54am ratso: Great Show. Got me to be very productive!
	11:55am Rich in Bristol: Nice, Ken!
	11:56am northguineahills: @dave: The USPS gets no funding from the government, but they can have their hours reduced by executive decree. Less hours, less income. stamps is how they make the most of their money, even more then package mailing.
	11:56am TDK60: Thanks, Trouble DJ.
	11:56am Rich in Bristol: For UK stampers, a Coronation Street set was recently released. https://shop.royalmail.com/coronation-street-stamp-set
	11:57am Trouble: awesome artist ruth asawa stamps are released today! a japanese american woman who was interned during wwII and made amazing innovative sculpture while mothering 6 kids. Perhaps the PO chose her to say immigrants count?!
	11:57am northguineahills: I still have my Mr Rogers stamps (a gift for my bday).
	11:57am spodiodi: thanks, Trouble (enjoyed the last few tracks!)
	11:58am northguineahills: obrigato, Trouble!
	11:58am Trouble: thanks for listening and sitting in today! please register to vote, and vote. merci!
	11:58am waters7: Love the artwork today. KJM!!! Love you. xo
	11:58am Rich in Bristol: Thanks, Trouble!
	11:58am Corey: Thanks for the great show Trouble! The past three hours went too fast!
	11:59am northguineahills: Thanks, Ken, for the link!
	11:59am Trouble: bonjour @emily!
	11:59am Priscilla: Thanks, Trouble!
	12:00pm redbee: Thanks Trouble!
	12:07pm dave wuz here: stamps bought!
	1:01pm James Graham: Pseu, I got to tell you, I'm sitting here in Brooklyn and I'm digging the fuck out of your set today. I think I know all of them, but I don't know anyof them. And that makes you my favorite DJ today. THANKS!
	5:24pm ?: trouble sorry i missed the live opportunity this am- disculpe! but yes in portugal it would be "de" more like "duh" than the spanish "dey" and instead of the brazilian "gee". what fun. i actually speak more portugal portuguese than brazlian but i know both ;)
	5:24pm kayt: oh and that was me, kayt!

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

	9:02am deborah: Good Morning Everyone!
	9:02am wizard frog: wow!
	9:02am The Butterman: Oh, there’s gunna be trouble all right. Morning!
	9:02am Trouble: thanks @handy. could have done without that tropical storm punctuation but besides that all was swell.
	9:03am deborah: Love the art. As They Might Be Giants say, "Keep a little birdhouse in your soul."
	9:05am Irene Trudel: Good morning all! May all Troubles be pleasant today.
	9:06am Webhamster Henry: Hi to Trouble & Irene and to whomever is skeletoning!
	9:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pritty painting - pritty Barwick.
	9:07am lukavino: ordered this Barwick last Bandcamp friday, cannot wait to dive in.
	9:08am cl@m_digger: I just listened to this album for the first time a couple days ago
	9:08am PaulRobeson1920: A warm summers greetings to all
	9:08am cl@m_digger: Someone tweeted it on a list of top electronic albums from 1998
	9:11am YETI BOB: Hi Trouble and everyone. Kerry James Marshall is great - I've seen a few shows of his work here in Chicago. I don't know the painting that's on the playlist today, but most of his painings are very large and are just overwhelming when you stand in front of them.
	9:12am Ed From Jersey City: Buenos Dias Trouble.
	9:14am two tigers: Oh This is grimm. Why such sadness?
	9:15am Trouble: hola @ED!!! how is the family? and my favorite dog?
	9:15am WoodsOfNH: Some day I'll hear Terry Riley and not think "Oh no, something's gone wrong at WFMU!"
	9:16am YETI BOB: Ok, found it - this one - titled “Black and part Black Birds in America: (Crow, Goldfinch)” - is not huge, it's 27 7/8 x 24 3/4 inches. If you are interested in more about this great artist, here's his gallery page: jackshainman.com... , lots of great work there. Looks like he was also featured in the NYT recently.
	9:16am redbee: Thanks Yeti! I've always thought of his figurative work, but this is such a lovely composition
	9:17am Trouble: the Marshall painting is from a brand new series made this spring, on exhibit now at david zwirner www.nytimes.com...
	9:18am BeNowBobby: Good morning What a beautiful song selection already. Trouble is Always on that Top Shelf!
	9:19am redbee: On a bird-related note, I took up some recommendations from you all, from a few weeks back... I visited the Audubon center in New Jersey (Scherman Hoffman) and used the Song Sleuth app to identify a bunch of birds. It made for such a pleasant, lovely day. Highly recommended, and I can't wait to get a pair of binoculars and go back during migration season.
	9:19am Ed From Jersey City: It sometimes borders on a Mexican prison riot with the distance learning but , all in all, everyone is healthy and happy. The dog is in seventh heaven because he has company all day. I hope DJ Ice Pack and Mr. Trouble are good.
	9:20am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	9:20am Pe3ter from Dover NJ: Hello Trouble and everyone.
	9:20am Yes: Morning all
	9:21am Handy Haversack: Nice, redbee! We went out to the Delaware River to see friends a couple of weeks back and saw some birds that are less common in north Brooklyn: grosbeaks (they left here when it heated up), goldfinches, titmice, chickadees, hummingbirds.
	9:21am Trouble: i feel for you @ed... so hard for parents of young kids. my college student is deep in his computer all day long, no social life, but that's another kettle of fish. say hi to nilka!
	9:21am Really Lisa: @redbee, I was going to ask if you made it to any of those spots! Glad it worked out!
	9:21am YETI BOB: Thanks Trouble. That NYT article is really good, I'm glad they featured him. The other link I posted has a lot more of his work.
	9:22am Trouble: merci@BeNowBobby
	9:23am Bennett: Morning everyone!
	9:23am rebuketodali: Thank you for playing this Arthur Russell. I have had another track from World of Echo in my head for weeks and was not able to place who recorded it. Mystery solved!
	9:25am YETI BOB: Suddenly thinking of how long it's been since I've been to a museum or art gallery (something I used to do a lot). Lately I've been walking around the city photographing graffiti, trying to get my art fix. There's some pretty great street art in and near my neighborhood.
	9:25am redbee: HH: I love the Del Water Gap, really incredible birding there, and such a variety of flora as well. I think I've seen grosbeaks there earlier this summer. I've not yet seen a hummingbird on the east coast, that's awesome! Glad to hear you had some good sightings. Lisa: Yes! Thanks much! New favorite spot, and I'm looking forward to checking out some of the waterfront preserves in the future.
	9:25am BeNowBobby: The article On James Marshall is stunningly amazing, beautiful art and artist.
	9:27am redbee: With the help of using the Song Sleuth app, I realized that the hawk I thought I was hearing near me in central Brooklyn is actually a blue jay impersonating one. At the Audubon center I was able to hear a blue jay and a hawk screaming at each other (hah), the difference is subtle...
	9:28am Henry C.: really entranced by that Anika track, thanks for spinning!
	9:28am deborah: @9:25YETI BOB: Thinking the same. Miss it all. Montclair Art Museum is within walking distance and was a favorite haunt, along with galleries there and in Jersey City. It might be a while until these places reopen. Sad.
	9:29am Handy Haversack: Ha, redbee, yeah! Our local bluejay teens have been amusing themselves by hawk whistling to scare the sparrows off the feeders!
	9:30am YETI BOB: (Interesting nugget from the NYT article, if you don't have time to read it: James Audubon was probably Black, with Haitian origins ... part of the reason Marshall is working with bird imagery)
	9:31am redbee: "bluejay teens", haha! Feathery blue terrors. I'll hear the cry and then see a flock of pigeons go scattering.
	9:31am Bill W: hello all
	9:32am HomebrewIcedLatte: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
	9:34am A: I always wanted to know where this background soundscape with the French narrator is from.
	9:38am redbee: uuuuughhhh ;__; thanks for the heads up, Trouble. For some reason that direct URL wasn't working, but here's what got me through: act.audubon.org...
	9:38am Passaic River Blues: @A: The Jean C. Roché records I've come across are pretty good. Regarding Audubon and the sometimes sordid backstories of many of the eponymous names of beloved American birds: www.washingtonpost.com... matthewhalley.wordpress.com...
	9:39am Melmoth: I recognize this tune from somewhere...
	9:40am Trouble: bird records i use are 10" recordings by Jean Claude Roché.
	9:40am BeNowBobby: Marshall also talks about the "plane" with regard to his paintings which refers to Perspective, the imaginary line corresponding to viewers line of sight perpendicular to the viewers line of sight. if that makes sense... too many art history classes
	9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thot it might be riffing on 'Summertime' - & beautifully...
	9:41am YETI BOB: @Trouble: Letter sent, donation made!! Thanks for bringing this to attention. As redbee pointed out act.audubon.org is not 100% right but anyone with a brain can find it off the main audubon.org page.
	9:41am jt: Along the forrest trail, during lulls in bird sightings, it often comes up that JJ Audubon was ALSO shooting the birds in order to get all the details right in his depictions of them..
	9:42am YETI BOB: @RR1163: Tune of "Summertime" itself is lifted from a Ukrainian lullaby! (By a Jewish songwriter trying to create a Negro spiritual...)
	9:42am SeanG: morning Trouble and all
	9:43am JG: @Melmoth- the flute part is similar to Jethro Tull's Bouree
	9:43am BeNowBobby: Nana Adjoa's song is still in my head. I had to grab it off Bandcamp. <3
	9:43am Trouble: amazing children's book that gives insight to audubon's life and how he worked: " the boy who drew birds" by Jacqueline Davies
	9:44am Melmoth: Rabbit, I think your right, it’s very similar to Gershwin’s summertime
	9:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fascinating Yeti ! I love the fusion that Gershwin was & how it could only happen in NYC & then. 'canto de xango' implies maybe a chant for a Vodun loa ??...
	9:45am BeNowBobby: Have a bird on my fire escape who can't fly. they lived in my little birdhouse off apartment window... I think he fell out of birdhouse and parents were feeding him last night and this morning. Hope she gonna be ok
	9:46am A: Thanks Trouble!
	9:46am Pale Son: Morning, everyone! Joined late, but I'm digging this dub.
	9:47am jt: @BeNowBobby I read those birds usually figure it out w/o any human help.. keep the cat away and it should do ok.
	9:48am PaulRobeson1920: O my yes keep those cats inside!
	9:49am βrian: I've risen from the crypt. What a beautiful day.
	9:49am BeNowBobby: jt: ty yea I just watched from window, so thanks so much I'll let nature do its thing. I'm glad she up high on fire escape safe from Predators.
	9:50am YETI BOB: BeNowBobby: If the parents are feeding the baby bird, that's a good sign.
	9:52am YETI BOB: BeNowBobby: Does the bird have a comfortable spot on the fire escape? I've rescued a few baby birds and generally what I do is make a temporary "nest" for them out of a basket or bowl and some rags. If the parents know where the baby is, it usually works out OK.
	9:52am BeNowBobby: Yeti- right? I thought so too and she is spunky chirping loud and strong has energy just can't fly yet she not that small. I thought it was a good sign too. Thanks Yeti I heard her all night out my window, poor little thing.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: Gah, Trouble, somehow I ended up with back-to-back meetings this morning. Blargh. The show has been sounding great. I want to hope I'll be back before the end ... but I'm low on hope this week. At any road, thanks, Trouble! As always!
	9:54am gilmour: Good Morning. I'm glad to be listening. I hope you enjoyed your day off last week. Thanks, Trouble, for the Zadie Smith rec, some really great stories in there and maybe not something I would have read on on my own. I've just started Lincoln on the Verge by Ted Widmer (another NYer "briefly noted") -- it's very good and seems extremely relevant to current political circumstances; i'm learning a lot
	9:54am WoodsOfNH: Yeah, I have my daily 10AM "standup." I'll be sitting down, because I'm SUCH a rebel.
	9:54am BeNowBobby: Yeti I can def do that for bird I'll put in corner she scares me she gonna try to jump off and fly when parents leave to get more food she wants to follow them. Gonna make a little bird nest. Thanks so much Yeti
	9:55am Yes: enjoying the souvenir bounciness
	9:55am WoodsOfNH: @Trouble Started reading Invisible Man last night. Man, that Mr. Ellison had too many brains in his head. Just the introduction felt like a workout!
	9:55am gilmour: oh and we're not big game people, but we recently got the game Wingspan, and might be slightly obsessed with collecting birds now
	9:56am Priscilla: Oh this takes me back!
	9:57am Trouble: @woods of NH: we just bought that book! dj icepack and I are going to read it: mini book club ongoing...
	9:58am WoodsOfNH: @Trouble I've been meaning to read it for years. We have Juneteenth which I haven't read because I keep thinking I should read Invisible Man first. Really looking forward to it.
	10:00am Todd-a-o: Nice space farts
	10:01am ratso: Digging this set, Trouble.
	10:02am Trouble: gracias@ratso
	10:05am jt: "Invisible Man " Ellison coincidence..also just started reading it, a much marked up paper-back copy.. He is an amazing writer, not light reading at all. My partner is going through Octavia E. Butler books, so I decided to start earlier on the timeline w/ Ellison. Nabokov, never one to praise other writers, spoke of him highly... so I read on.
	10:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always loved good Dubs.
	10:06am deborah: @gilmour: Best Zadie Smith is White Teeth.
	10:07am northguineahills: About to go out and enumerate my community for the Census....
	10:08am YETI BOB: I want to be M.C. Squared. (Somebody must have done that already, right?)
	10:08am βrian: We haven't seen any census mailings at all. Been in the same location for 11 years, too.
	10:08am Justin B.: Thank you for the census plug :)
	10:09am TDK60: Save the post office.
	10:09am gilmour: deborah, thanks
	10:09am Doug in JC: I think I've mentioned it before? Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk. A funny novel of animal revenge
	10:10am Trouble: 2020census.gov
	10:11am Lucky: @Brian - Even if you did not receive an invitation to respond from the Census Bureau, you may respond online. Call 844-330-2020 and they will set you up with a Census ID number.
	10:13am BeNowBobby: I put a nice very low bowl/plate full of clean but older rags, she was hiding in corner of fire escape. Hopefully she willl find it and relax and heal up her parents feed her.
	10:13am kayt: bom dia touble kahn-too gee shan-goo
	10:13am ami ad: Chirps ahoy,got locked outside the building for 2 hours or so,yep.
	10:13am Bill W: Metafiction reading: MEMOIRS AND MISINFORMATION by Jim Carrey (yes that one) and Dana Vachon. A numbed, dysfunctional movie star named Jim Carrey gets caught up in a bad marriage, a biopic of Chairman Mao written by Charlie Kaufman, and an apocalyptic battle with invading reptilian aliens in Malibu.
	10:14am Trouble: bom dia@kayt!! nice to hear you are still listening! hope you are well!
	10:14am BeNowBobby: Oh and radio on in room near her window so she can hear the show too. Its very low, maybe she likes the bird sounds.
	10:15am Passaic River Blues: @Doug in JC: I ordered Tokarczuk's book yesterday! I'm almost positive I first learned of it via WFMU, perhaps it was your prior recommendation.
	10:15am northguineahills: Beuatify Junkyards, rerminds me of Espers....
	10:16am YETI BOB: @BeNowBobby: Sounds good. Keep us updated!
	10:17am mb: Hola Trouble. Good morning, all.
	10:17am Trouble: good morning @bill W!
	10:17am Doug in JC: @PRB Maybe! You'll have to let me know what you think.
	10:18am Todd-a-o: Nice set!!!
	10:19am Ike: @Bill W, how is that? I saw that and wondered if Jim Carrey was just trying to do a Charlie Kaufman knockoff.
	10:19am lukavino: when i hear herb albert or even see his name, all i can think about is how mad he got when he saw soul asylum's album art for Clam Dip and Other Delights.
	10:20am gilmour: wild thumpy thunder looped with trumpets and timbalis
	10:21am sphere: herb alpert? go figure.
	10:21am Listener Gregory: I was sent to a dental specialist who had a trumpet autographed by Herb Alpert on display in his treatment room. This worried me.
	10:21am Trouble: thanks@ todd-a-o
	10:24am Bill W: @Ike I'm not sure what the parameters of a Kaufman knockoff would be, but I enjoyed the book, particularly the seething hatred it has for Disney.
	10:31am WoodsOfNH: I have an album of Whipped Cream & Other Delights remixes. Really fun.
	10:31am Snoochienucci: awesome stuff today Trouble! feel like Jungle's "Drops" would fit nicely into either of these first sets. Much love to all the commenters, another busy day here for me
	10:34am Trouble: thanks@snoochienucci
	10:37am TDK60: Fine show, Trouble. Glad it's cooled down some in NYC/NJ.
	10:37am Passaic River Blues: @Listener Gregory: hahahaha
	10:38am northguineahills: bombo estero!
	10:38am Ike: Audiobook recommendation: "Sigh, Gone" by Phuc Tran, a memoir of being an immigrant kid in PA in the 80s. If you're having trouble paying attention due to quarantine brain, this is good, since it's a series of funny, sad episodic segments, well-told, but also all connected. Great narration.
	10:41am northguineahills: @WoodsOfNH: There was a gallery exhibit in 2003 called the "LP show'. Musicians and artists put together album covers. Christian Marclay used "whipped cream and other delights" and other album covers that copied/parodied it to make a pixelated image of the original album cover from afar. (there were scores of non-Herb Alpert covers used, many I've never seen since....
	10:41am Trouble: merci@tdk60. me too!
	10:43am BeNowBobby: This astral black song is lit damn love that track
	10:43am dougseidel: don't be saying "pee pee"!
	10:43am WoodsOfNH: @northguineahills Pretty cool!
	10:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Quarantine brain ! I was starting to benefit from Buddhist podcasts from Audio Dharma (download some Silence ??) ...& somehow being locked down @ home with nothing but time destroyed my attention span - like @ first dealing with symptoms, I believe - & just clinging to News reports ...like Just Get Thru This ...we thot it might pass in a few months & maybe come back in Autumn ...it just got bigger from misdirection ...
	10:48am gilmour: this is now officially the soundtrack for the lincoln biography i'm reading. how long, indeed
	10:48am Hubig Pie: I for one really enjoy Herb's collaboration with Public Enemy
	10:48am northguineahills: I got approved to do Census interviews in Spanish as I'm bilingual.(well, my wife says I speak gringo spanglish)
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& I still really have no idea what the Whipped Cream albums sounds like! Alpert in general more about arrangements than playing? A distinct sound of the 1960s... He's the A in A&M records ?
	10:50am sphere: Yep, he is the A in A&M.
	10:50am northguineahills: @Hubig Pie: that PE/Alpert remix was done by Evolution Control Committee.
	10:50am WoodsOfNH: @RRNov63 Oh, I bet you'd recognize "A Taste Of Honey"
	10:51am northguineahills: (I have the 45...)
	10:51am Hubig Pie: Ja NGH, and it's a riot
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would love to get paid helping Polls on my B-Day ! : D ...I imagine in our little town there's a cadre of old ladies who got it sewn up - but maybe not...
	10:52am Trouble: old peeps are backing out@revrabitnov: that's why there is a shortage! do it!! it's a trip!
	10:54am Dean from Old Bridge: Surprised in the three years I’ve been listening to William Onyeabor, this is the first time a I’ve heard him played on WFMU
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being Public is a pandemic risk - right... for any of us - of any age. Those ladies are always nice to me when Voting - actually...
	10:55am Trouble: @dean from old bridge: i play him all the time, as do many wfmu dj's...
	10:56am northguineahills: @Dean: I discovered Onyeabor from WFMU and The Wire simulateneously I believe when the first reissue came out. (I believe it was Scott Williams first, then Trouble).
	10:58am Adrian in London: Hello, late, from blissfully rainy London. By rainy I mean monsoon.
	11:00am BeNowBobby: I skimmed through the Astralblack cd on Bandcamp I downloaded. Wow and wow !!! This gonna be a fun record. TY Trouble!!!
	11:00am Pale Son: Do I hear Eno's voice in there?
	11:00am Yes: sounds like it
	11:00am Trouble: sorry about that @ adrian. it is raining hear, and it's a nice rain as opposed to most of the ferocious, flooding rains we have had this summer. although there is a flash flood warning, so someone somewhere is getting it downpour stylee
	11:01am BeNowBobby: What does freedom mean to you? Nina Simone - "NO FEAR, NO FEAR!"
	11:02am YETI BOB: @PaleSon: Looking at the credits for this album - Eno is credited with backing vocals. And Robert Palmer (Addicted to Love) is credited with percussion. Really??
	11:03am Pale Son: @Yeti Ha ha! Must've stopped by the studio one day.
	11:04am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw online Edinburgh had flooding. Been some compelling documentation of what rising sea levels are meaning for London.
	11:06am wizard frog: wonder what they call Bonjela cream in Portuguese countries ^o^
	11:06am BeNowBobby: Now I just downloaded that William Onyearbor track that sounded amazing.
	11:07am Pale Son: Aha!
	11:08am Listener Gregory: Trouble, is it Robert Palmer the singer or the music critic?
	11:08am YETI BOB: "Silver and Gold" by Onyeabor is my favorite.
	11:08am Pale Son: I think "Alabama" actually came after "Sweet Home...". It was a back-and-forth kinda thing.
	11:09am YETI BOB: Gregory - the "Addicted to Love" singer.
	11:09am Pale Son: Nope, I'm wrong. Trouble was right.
	11:09am Davec1: Robert Palmer....what a guy...I’m sneaking sally thru the alley....
	11:10am BeNowBobby: Thanks Yeti Im gonna grab that record. Love finding new Gems! TY
	11:10am YETI BOB: I wonder if he ever got help for that addiction.
	11:10am Listener Gregory: @Yeti B, yikes! The critic actually played clarinet on an Ornette Coleman album once, so it's not out of the question.
	11:11am Hubig Pie: Angelique Kidjo does a great take on Listening Wind off Remain in Light
	11:13am YETI BOB: Hubig: That entire Kidjo album is GREAT. I can't really listen to the Talking Heads records any more (overexposure), but I can listen to Angelique Kidjo's version all day long.
	11:14am Trouble: robert palmer the musician @ listener gregory
	11:14am BeNowBobby: grabbed his discography on PBay. Naughty but so nice. I ask forgiveness
	11:15am Hubig Pie: Yeti B. , I'll have to give the rest of it a listen
	11:16am Frank's Brain: Native of Portugal, here. "D" is "D." no matter what. Brazilian Portuguese has heavy African influence in the spoken language. So, difference is mostly about phonetics, not structure. Basically, it's Portuguese with some jazz added to the mix, making it a bit more melodic....and less rigid.
	11:17am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello Trouble and all, just in time to can't get enough
	11:18am northguineahills: @Frank's Brain: Not a Lusophone, but I can speak espanol, but when I hear Brazilian Portuguese vs Iberian Portuguese, it always confuses me...
	11:19am northguineahills: (Large Brazilian population here in central FL)
	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kidjo adds Jazz to the Talking Heads! Haven't got enuff of that yet...
	11:20am Adrian in London: @trouble It’s been so hot here for about a week, and there’s been no breeze so it’s been hard to sleep. Things are suddenly much cooler, which is lovely.
	11:21am Trouble: obrigada@frank's brain!
	11:21am winston legthigh: any brazilian restaurant recommendations in central FL @northguineahills?
	11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously here in New Hampshuh I say I hate Winter - but I fear climate change putting us above the human Heat Index as a New Abnormal...
	11:23am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and schizophones. Just getting tuned in here.
	11:24am Alison in London: It is no trouble at all to listen to Trouble.
	11:25am Rich in Bristol: Seamless transition. Lovely bit of business from Trouble.
	11:26am northguineahills: @winston legthigh: there's one across the street from my hotel on International Dr, but I haven't tried it as I'm skint, and I only eat meat maybe once a month. (I'm in the middle of moving). (I miss the Brazilian restaurants in Sunnyside/Corona Queesns.
	11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so seems as if the whole World swelters - & there's one little girl with pigtails doing anything about it..
	11:28am TDK60: Actually, whole lot more people, scientists and activists, than one Scandinavian.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Optics...
	11:30am northguineahills: Osbourne Rudduck at the controls!
	11:30am winston legthigh: ty @northguineahills. i dont get over to orlando much (I4 nightmare), but look forward to nice restaurants again
	11:30am jt: Revolution Rabbit Nov63: "...so seems as if the whole World swelters - & there's one little girl with pigtails doing anything about it.. " lol's feels that way ! despite the fact she inspired millions, remember: walk -out-Friday's? ...hopefully her generation will get it right...
	11:30am mb: Irie vibes, DJ. Long live the King!
	11:32am ami ad: Hey,so,it seems Israel and the U.A.E has signed a Peace agreement today. JobLess.

	11:32am spodiodi: good morning, Trouble, Mods. sounds like a good place to get irie
	11:33am northguineahills: @winston: I split my time b/tn Gainesville and Orlando.
	11:34am northguineahills: Prince Jazzbo!
	11:35am winston legthigh: florida gator connection @northguineahills? full disclosure, im a noles fan ;)
	11:40am northguineahills: @winston: I did my undergrad at UF, and my MA at CUNY-Hunter (NYC), and then spent 16 years up there, before coming back down to work at an environmental science startup before DeSantis slashed the Everglades restoration budget. Now, just underemployed. (I actually have a Gators facemask a friend made for me, out of the other generic ones I have). I used to have friends that lived in Tally, and used to visit often, but almost all of them left.
	11:41am Jason from Houston: (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ ♫
	11:43am spodiodi: birds are stepping all over Trouble
	11:43am spodiodi: pipe down with those tweets, boids
	11:45am listener james from westwood: Clay's show was a gem!
	11:45am mb: Shoutouts to DJ Clay!
	11:46am northguineahills: Gary Sullivan filled in for Jeff Sarge last Saturday and did an amazing 3 hour dub set. Available in his archives (can be found in the Give the Drummer Some schedule)
	11:47am northguineahills: Buy stamps!
	11:48am TDK60: There are several postal unions. The American Postal Workers Union -APWU- site has some articles/statements on this crisis.
	11:48am wizard frog: Blessed be that dirt road Utah postman
	11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: When I send packages, I use the post office instead of the various shipping companies that are out there.
	11:49am The Butterman: I can’t believe my luck to just now find that Clay’s Pounding System was a reggae show! I’m shaking with excitement! Was he on in the middle of the night?
	11:49am northguineahills: Don't forget that Congress mandated that the USPS fund a retirement fund for 75 years, something no other federal or private agency ever had to fund (hence their funding shortage).
	11:51am dave wuz here: does buying stamps actually help the situation?
	11:52am Stanley: Hi Trouble and everyone. Please don't understimate the effect of the US on the rest of the world. For the sake of the whole world, please register, if you haven't done so and vote for a change in government.
	11:52am Corey: Have always been impressed with the consistency and scope of the USPS. Have had significantly more bad experiences with private carriers.
	11:52am Rich in Bristol: When you're buying stamps from your Post Office, make sure to check out their variety of gimmicky alternative ones. I recently received a sweet Star Trek stamp from my buddy in NYC.
	11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Hip hop DJ stamps are available. store.usps.com...
	11:54am Trouble: yes buying stamps helps. write your representatives and tell them to save the PO
	11:54am ratso: Great Show. Got me to be very productive!
	11:55am Rich in Bristol: Nice, Ken!
	11:56am northguineahills: @dave: The USPS gets no funding from the government, but they can have their hours reduced by executive decree. Less hours, less income. stamps is how they make the most of their money, even more then package mailing.
	11:56am TDK60: Thanks, Trouble DJ.
	11:56am Rich in Bristol: For UK stampers, a Coronation Street set was recently released. https://shop.royalmail.com/coronation-street-stamp-set
	11:57am Trouble: awesome artist ruth asawa stamps are released today! a japanese american woman who was interned during wwII and made amazing innovative sculpture while mothering 6 kids. Perhaps the PO chose her to say immigrants count?!
	11:57am northguineahills: I still have my Mr Rogers stamps (a gift for my bday).
	11:57am spodiodi: thanks, Trouble (enjoyed the last few tracks!)
