	♥ 12:48pm Krys O.: I intend to stay in pyjamas and listen to WFMU all day.
	♥ 12:50pm YETI BOB: Answering my own Q: It was Surbahar in the first part, which is sort of a bass sitar (and I love it!)
	12:52pm Mike tp: love to music makers presenters listeners
	12:53pm David F: Ram Narayan - Grandfather of Sarangi Maestro Harsh Narayan who just released his own album this year with Ty Burhoe in CO.
	1:02pm kpx: @Krys.O: you know what will heightened you're all day in pajamas experience, don't wash, don't brush your teeth, don't clean up after yourself, Eat in bed and let the crumbs fly where they may. just go totally slob City. and as an option to boot, just because it's New year's day, start drinking early.

	1:14pm Colleen: must say ...this is not good for my hangover
	1:16pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all.
	1:19pm kpx: Hey Chresti, I've been waiting to greet you with your own \\//.and there you have it. did you have a little too much spirits last night, which is why you slept in your clothes?
	1:21pm kpx: I wonder how this sounds to cats with hangovers?
	♥ 1:22pm chresti: Hey kpx \\ //
	♥ 1:25pm chresti: I've been sleeping in my clothes because they're comfortable, I don't really have pajamas.
	♥ 1:26pm chresti: I don't sleep in skirts or dresses though, that's where I draw the line.
	♥ 1:28pm chresti: I do change into fresh sleep/awake clothes every day or so.
	♥ 1:29pm Michael 98145: 2020 vision was so overrated
	♥ 1:31pm Krys O.: Most of my WFMU tee shirts are part of my play/sleep wardrobe and only a select few have been worn to the office. Not that we have a formal dress code.
	♥ 1:39pm YETI BOB: "Ghulam Muhammed Khan of Lucknow is credited with its invention around the year 1825." according to the Victoria and Albert museum www.vam.ac.uk...
	♥ 1:39pm YETI BOB: Also: Yeti want surbahar!
	♥ 1:39pm Krys O.: Good photos and info on the Surabahar here: chandrakantha.com...
	♥ 1:41pm chresti: I'm wearing a Blumin wfmu t-shirt.
	♥ 1:41pm YETI BOB: sportin' the Tape Cow, here
	1:42pm kpx: while I'm hanging here in idle, I guess I'll give a Happy New years shout out to our host Bryce, SM Kenvil, David iL, PLU, Yeti Bob, Ami ad, Krys.O, Chresti, and as the opening credits say from Gilligan's island, And the Rest.
	♥ 1:43pm YETI BOB: They have one in the museum from 1890, so it's pretty unlikely that Imrat Khan invented it
	♥ 1:44pm YETI BOB: @kpx: And we're here for a three-hour cruise!
	♥ 1:45pm Bryce: @yeti b & krys, thanx!! that is the info i was looking for!! cheers, kpx!
	♥ 1:45pm Krys O.: "Some researchers believe that surbahar was invented around 1825. Surbahar was invented by Omrao Khan Beenkar and Ghulam Mohammad was his disciple. Omrao Khan Beenkar was the grandfather of Wazir Khan of Rampur. The invention is also attributed to Ustad Sahebdad Khan. Recent research shows that Lucknow-based sitarist Ustad Ghulam Mohammed may also have been the inventor.[3] A similar kind of instrument , known as the Mahakachhapi Vina, is also known to exist during that period.[4]"
	♥ 1:45pm Bryce: hey, ami, and all i missed! david f, thanks, i'll keep an ear out for that!
	1:46pm kpx: @Chresti: so I take it a lot of the time you sleep in the buff?
	♥ 1:46pm Bryce: wait wtf, vicki's on bizarro fmu rn??
	♥ 1:46pm People Like Us: I am!
	♥ 1:46pm People Like Us: i'm across playing things too
	♥ 1:46pm Krys O.: It could be that the inventors (plural) drew their inspiration from the collective unconscious and hearing of other's work.
	♥ 1:47pm chresti: Happy New Year kpx\\ //
	♥ 1:47pm Bryce: @colleen, lmao so sorry! in my mind, i thought i was being hangover-friendly lolll
	♥ 1:47pm Michael 98145: happy 2021 to every timezoners
	♥ 1:47pm chresti: kpx, never!
	♥ 1:48pm People Like Us: i'm doing Sheena's stream until top of the hour while you were playing your weckords
	♥ 1:48pm YETI BOB: When Ustad Ghulam Mohammed left home, all the people said "Ghulam, you're out of Lucknow"
	♥ 1:48pm chresti: I'm there too!
	♥ 1:49pm People Like Us: you are!
	♥ 1:49pm People Like Us: oi Bryce is in my comments board, sod off
	♥ 1:50pm chresti: Haha
	♥ 1:50pm People Like Us: took him three hours to work it out
	♥ 1:53pm Bryce: what's that? bats away imaginary fly
	♥ 1:53pm People Like Us: bryce woke up
	♥ 1:54pm Bryce: only for a second
	♥ 1:54pm YETI BOB: Too bad we can't listen to Vicki and Bryce at the same time (it doesn't work, I tried it). Gonna stay here on the Subcontinent.
	♥ 1:54pm People Like Us: I'm playing the Bee Gees what have I become
	1:54pm Brenna: perfect sound to start the year :)
	♥ 1:54pm People Like Us: you can though!
	1:55pm ami ad: Hey Kpx, happy new year, hope this one is better.
	1:55pm kpx: @Chresti: Ok wrong assumption. underwear, what have you.@Plu: weckords, that was good for a chuckle.
	♥ 1:56pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Happy New Year, Bryce!
	♥ 1:56pm Michael 98145: pizza sounds good
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: hny, brenna!! hearts to u + birch!
	♥ 1:57pm Ike: Usually I don’t put one radio on 91.1 and the other on 91.9 at the same time because they’re just barely out of sync, and the echo is irritating for most music, but it works really well with this!
	♥ 1:57pm chresti: Yeti, I'm doing just that at the moment.
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: happnyear, s&m&s!!
	1:57pm Billy Jam: hello Bryce and all tuned in to F M U
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: billy!!!! i miss you, friend
	♥ 1:58pm People Like Us: W. F. M & U
	1:58pm Brenna: <3 hnyyyy bryce!!!
	1:59pm Billy Jam: you too Bryce - last week on FMU played one of our old transition freestyles - fun times
	♥ 2:00pm YETI BOB: @Ike: Sometimes we have the stream playing both upstairs and downstairs on different computers. Walking up and down the stairs results in some fun auditory phenomena, since they don't sync up.
	♥ 2:03pm chresti: I heard that, Billy Jam!
	2:04pm kpx: @PLU: almost but not quite the Bryce way, it's w&f&m&u.
	♥ 2:04pm Handy Haversack: We have 91.1 on the bathroom boombox and the stream on VLC in the front room, so the middle rooms get some auditory mixes going.
	♥ 2:06pm Kat in Chicago: I have been thinking more and more about how much I would like to hear WFMU over the actual airwaves again
	♥ 2:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: @chresti - Your request is playing next door - www.wfmu.org...
	2:09pm LP Stevenson: Had no idea I needed to listen to three hours of ragas, but damned if I didn’t. Thank you, Bryce. Happy New Year.
	♥ 2:11pm Bryce: :) hny, lps!!!
	♥ 2:13pm Ike: @Kat, weird thing many years ago, somehow WFMU was relayed on an 89.5 from Chesterton (?) near Gary and some people could pick it up in Chicago. I think this went on for months maybe? But eventually 89.5 got sold to WBEZ or something.
	2:14pm kpx: Hey you!, Ken Hyde from the park.... Haaappy new stinkin year.
	♥ 2:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, kpx! Happy New Year to you and the Bryced!
	♥ 2:16pm Bryce: oh no, this is the one i played this year already! 2021 swiss cheese brain!
	♥ 2:17pm YETI BOB: @Ike: Interesting, I'd never heard about that! I have fantasized about a WFMU repeater in or near Chicago (grew up in NJ, moved out here about 25 years ago)
	♥ 2:21pm Kat in Chicago: That's wild, Ike! Really I am just getting fed up with Chicago though :) I remember in my early teens in Augusta, Georgia, picking up a station from Chicago on my radio at night. It was Top 40 but played some songs that my local stations didn't. I remember hearing the weather forecasts and thinking "how does anyone survive in those temperatures?"
	♥ 2:22pm YETI BOB: @Kat: If I may ask - fed up with the weather, or what?
	2:23pm David in London: Yeti Bob, Kpx, S&M&S, happy new thing to you groovers.
	♥ 2:23pm Kat in Chicago: @YETI the weather, and what. Lots of reasons.
	♥ 2:23pm Ike: @Yeti, in the radio biz, that type of station is known as a “rimshot”, i.e. it’s way out in some distant suburbs/exurbs and just barely reaches the city, and you might have to put your antenna in exactly the right place, or maybe it covers one side of town sorta well.
	♥ 2:25pm Krys O.: Absolutely gorgeous!
	♥ 2:26pm YETI BOB: Hey David! How's 2021 going for you so far? All I've done is drink coffee, smoke a bit, and listen to WFMU all day
	2:27pm David in London: Yeti Bob, well that sounds like the year is shaping up perfectly then! I’ve walked, eaten cake and tuned into Bryce, so mine has been pretty darned good so far, too.
	♥ 2:29pm -Ken: @Ike, @Kat, Yes, I built an 89.5fm station in Chesterton Indiana which grazed the outskirts of Chicago but the logistics proved too much for me and I sold the station to WBEZ and they turned it into the Vocalo station. This was a long time ago..
	♥ 2:31pm Kat in Chicago: Happy new year, Ken! It must have been a long time ago, I wasn't aware of that. WLUW, where I have my show, broadcasts Vocalo for two hours on weekday mornings.
	2:32pm kpx: @David iL: Cheers to you and 2021, still lurking about these days?
	♥ 2:32pm Handy Haversack: I'm trying to go the day without having to go outside. Less of a triumph than in years past, I guess, but still: you gotta have goals! Happy New Year, -Ken!
	♥ 2:33pm Kat in Chicago: Happy new year, Handy. We currently have freshly accumulated sleet on top of accumulated snow and ice from earlier in the week, so I ain't leaving the apartment. Glad I took out the garbage yesterday.
	♥ 2:34pm Handy Haversack: Oof, I hear that, Kat! Sleet Season. Sheesh. I grew up in Atlanta, and while I have come to love snow, the new normal of three months of sleet is a real downer. Happy New Year to you!
	♥ 2:37pm Kat in Chicago: Handy, what remains of my immediate family is in the Atlanta suburbs. My last three years of high school were in Avondale Estates. (My current neighborhood is called Avondale, so that's kind of odd.) I'll take snow over sleet and ice storms any day.
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: Avondale Estates! Home of the first Waffle House!
	♥ 2:38pm -Ken: @Kat, How is WLUW these days? Didnt the college kick everybody off a number of years ago?
	2:38pm ledzeppelinsucks: Read your new local and federal laws. There are thousands of them. Exchanging laws should be required and adding laws should be banned.
	♥ 2:39pm Kat in Chicago: Really, Handy? I didn't know that!
	2:39pm David in London: Kpx, I’m skulking rather than lurking, I think. Happy new year Kenmeister.
	♥ 2:41pm YETI BOB: I'm going to step out briefly to sweep slush off the steps before it freezes and put out some food for this cat we're trying to help - But other than that - not going anywhere! - making a fire in the fireplace and ordering pizzas and listening to all the great music.
	♥ 2:43pm Kat in Chicago: -Ken, what happened was control of the station reverted back to Loyola, someone got fired (I forget his name), and Shawn Campbell left with a lot of others and started what is now CHIRP (streaming and low-power FM). A few DJs/shows stayed, notably Destination Unknown which I eventually took over, and Abstract Science which is the other big electronic-music show there. We haven't been in the studio since Covid hit, of course. I am currently pre-recording my show at home and connecting with the studio computer via AnyDesk to stream it at show time (from a SoundCloud upload).
	♥ 2:46pm YETI BOB: I'm reading a little about the history of WAJW (the repeater station) - was on the air from 1995 to 2002 - I was in Chicago for most of that time, and totally unaware (our out of range), otherwise I would have tuned in!
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: Wow @Kat in Chicago. Kudos to you on your efforts.
	♥ 2:50pm Kat in Chicago: I was in New York from 1995-98, and my sojourn in Manhattan was where I first heard WFMU. I started listening online when I returned to Chicago as soon as I had means to do so, dropped away for a bit and came back circa 2009 I think.
	♥ 2:51pm luka: i did not know the WLUW/Chirp connection Kat, that’s interesting!
	♥ 2:52pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Krys!
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: Kat, Uncle Michael played your request.
	♥ 2:53pm Kat in Chicago: Hi, Luke, happy new year! Yeah that's how CHIRP came to be. Tbh I never listen, they are not very interesting to me. chresti - What request? :)
	♥ 2:54pm Ike: Kudos @Ken, I had forgotten that you built that station. Need new brain. As for Chirp that sounds a bit like the KUSF/KXSF fracas. Glad you’re still there Kat and that it didn’t get sold to a classical satellite monstrosity or whatnot.
	♥ 2:54pm chresti: Johnny Hartman? requested by Kat, a different Kat?
	♥ 2:55pm Kat in Chicago: chresti, a different Kat! There are one or two others on the chat boards.
	2:55pm ami ad: Thank you DJ. Crew.
	♥ 2:55pm YETI BOB: @Kat - I agree - when CHIRP was starting out I had hopes for it - nice to get a new radio station - but it doesn't hold my interest. I do like WLPN-LP though.
	♥ 2:55pm luka: hny, Kat! ^_^ since moving to VA, i mostly listen to wfmu can’t even recall why i started, but glad i did. a few Chirp shows are still appointment radio for me, but fewer, especially with Owen not on the air. i also miss going into the Loyola studios, that was fun when i would sit in during Chuck’s ska shows.
	♥ 2:56pm Kat in Chicago: Ike, I do appreciate that Loyola didn't sell the station entirely for quick buck$$!
	2:56pm The Butterman: Wow. Are you hearing what I’m hearing?
	♥ 2:56pm Bryce: happy new year, allyall!!!! xoxoxo
	♥ 2:57pm YETI BOB: I feel like I should listen to more local radio, but nothing is anywhere near to WFMU in quality
	♥ 2:57pm chresti: Thanks Bryce!. Nevermind, Kat
	♥ 2:57pm Handy Haversack: Crap, that went so fast! The future moves quick! Thanks, Bryce, -Ken, Team! Happy New Year to all who are still ragaing against the machine!
	2:59pm marianne: What a great show, thanks Bryce!
	2:59pm David in London: Thanks for a great show Bryce. Balm for the soul.
	♥ 2:59pm YETI BOB: A great way to spend 3 hours. Thank you Bryce for the excellent music picks. And it's been nice chatting with all the groovy people here. Happy 2021 to all of you.
	♥ 2:59pm Kat in Chicago: Thank you, Bryce!
	♥ 2:59pm Krys O.: Thanks, Bryce and everyone!
	♥ 3:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Bryce. Here's to new adventures in sonic 2021!
	3:00pm khd: i missed the whole show - crap!
	3:00pm Marc15: Happy New Year Bryce!!
	♥ 3:00pm slugluv1313: thanks so much, Bryce -- Happy New Year!!!
	3:02pm Brenna: thanks bryyyyyce!!

	♥ 1:26pm chresti: I don't sleep in skirts or dresses though, that's where I draw the line.
	♥ 1:28pm chresti: I do change into fresh sleep/awake clothes every day or so.
	♥ 1:29pm Michael 98145: 2020 vision was so overrated
	♥ 1:31pm Krys O.: Most of my WFMU tee shirts are part of my play/sleep wardrobe and only a select few have been worn to the office. Not that we have a formal dress code.
	♥ 1:39pm YETI BOB: "Ghulam Muhammed Khan of Lucknow is credited with its invention around the year 1825." according to the Victoria and Albert museum www.vam.ac.uk...
	♥ 1:39pm YETI BOB: Also: Yeti want surbahar!
	♥ 1:39pm Krys O.: Good photos and info on the Surabahar here: chandrakantha.com...
	♥ 1:41pm chresti: I'm wearing a Blumin wfmu t-shirt.
	♥ 1:41pm YETI BOB: sportin' the Tape Cow, here
	1:42pm kpx: while I'm hanging here in idle, I guess I'll give a Happy New years shout out to our host Bryce, SM Kenvil, David iL, PLU, Yeti Bob, Ami ad, Krys.O, Chresti, and as the opening credits say from Gilligan's island, And the Rest.
	♥ 1:43pm YETI BOB: They have one in the museum from 1890, so it's pretty unlikely that Imrat Khan invented it
	♥ 1:44pm YETI BOB: @kpx: And we're here for a three-hour cruise!
	♥ 1:45pm Bryce: @yeti b & krys, thanx!! that is the info i was looking for!! cheers, kpx!
	♥ 1:45pm Krys O.: "Some researchers believe that surbahar was invented around 1825. Surbahar was invented by Omrao Khan Beenkar and Ghulam Mohammad was his disciple. Omrao Khan Beenkar was the grandfather of Wazir Khan of Rampur. The invention is also attributed to Ustad Sahebdad Khan. Recent research shows that Lucknow-based sitarist Ustad Ghulam Mohammed may also have been the inventor.[3] A similar kind of instrument , known as the Mahakachhapi Vina, is also known to exist during that period.[4]"
	♥ 1:45pm Bryce: hey, ami, and all i missed! david f, thanks, i'll keep an ear out for that!
	1:46pm kpx: @Chresti: so I take it a lot of the time you sleep in the buff?
	♥ 1:46pm Bryce: wait wtf, vicki's on bizarro fmu rn??
	♥ 1:46pm People Like Us: I am!
	♥ 1:46pm People Like Us: i'm across playing things too
	♥ 1:46pm Krys O.: It could be that the inventors (plural) drew their inspiration from the collective unconscious and hearing of other's work.
	♥ 1:47pm chresti: Happy New Year kpx\\ //
	♥ 1:47pm Bryce: @colleen, lmao so sorry! in my mind, i thought i was being hangover-friendly lolll
	♥ 1:47pm Michael 98145: happy 2021 to every timezoners
	♥ 1:47pm chresti: kpx, never!
	♥ 1:48pm People Like Us: i'm doing Sheena's stream until top of the hour while you were playing your weckords
	♥ 1:48pm YETI BOB: When Ustad Ghulam Mohammed left home, all the people said "Ghulam, you're out of Lucknow"
	♥ 1:48pm chresti: I'm there too!
	♥ 1:49pm People Like Us: you are!
	♥ 1:49pm People Like Us: oi Bryce is in my comments board, sod off
	♥ 1:50pm chresti: Haha
	♥ 1:50pm People Like Us: took him three hours to work it out
	♥ 1:53pm Bryce: what's that? bats away imaginary fly
	♥ 1:53pm People Like Us: bryce woke up
	♥ 1:54pm Bryce: only for a second
	♥ 1:54pm YETI BOB: Too bad we can't listen to Vicki and Bryce at the same time (it doesn't work, I tried it). Gonna stay here on the Subcontinent.
	♥ 1:54pm People Like Us: I'm playing the Bee Gees what have I become
	1:54pm Brenna: perfect sound to start the year :)
	♥ 1:54pm People Like Us: you can though!
	1:55pm ami ad: Hey Kpx, happy new year, hope this one is better.
	1:55pm kpx: @Chresti: Ok wrong assumption. underwear, what have you.@Plu: weckords, that was good for a chuckle.
	♥ 1:56pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Happy New Year, Bryce!
	♥ 1:56pm Michael 98145: pizza sounds good
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: hny, brenna!! hearts to u + birch!
	♥ 1:57pm Ike: Usually I don’t put one radio on 91.1 and the other on 91.9 at the same time because they’re just barely out of sync, and the echo is irritating for most music, but it works really well with this!
	♥ 1:57pm chresti: Yeti, I'm doing just that at the moment.
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: happnyear, s&m&s!!
	1:57pm Billy Jam: hello Bryce and all tuned in to F M U
	♥ 1:57pm Bryce: billy!!!! i miss you, friend
	♥ 1:58pm People Like Us: W. F. M & U
	1:58pm Brenna: <3 hnyyyy bryce!!!
	1:59pm Billy Jam: you too Bryce - last week on FMU played one of our old transition freestyles - fun times
	♥ 2:00pm YETI BOB: @Ike: Sometimes we have the stream playing both upstairs and downstairs on different computers. Walking up and down the stairs results in some fun auditory phenomena, since they don't sync up.
	♥ 2:03pm chresti: I heard that, Billy Jam!
	2:04pm kpx: @PLU: almost but not quite the Bryce way, it's w&f&m&u.
	♥ 2:04pm Handy Haversack: We have 91.1 on the bathroom boombox and the stream on VLC in the front room, so the middle rooms get some auditory mixes going.
	♥ 2:06pm Kat in Chicago: I have been thinking more and more about how much I would like to hear WFMU over the actual airwaves again
	♥ 2:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: @chresti - Your request is playing next door - www.wfmu.org...
	2:09pm LP Stevenson: Had no idea I needed to listen to three hours of ragas, but damned if I didn’t. Thank you, Bryce. Happy New Year.
	♥ 2:11pm Bryce: :) hny, lps!!!
	♥ 2:13pm Ike: @Kat, weird thing many years ago, somehow WFMU was relayed on an 89.5 from Chesterton (?) near Gary and some people could pick it up in Chicago. I think this went on for months maybe? But eventually 89.5 got sold to WBEZ or something.
	2:14pm kpx: Hey you!, Ken Hyde from the park.... Haaappy new stinkin year.
	♥ 2:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, kpx! Happy New Year to you and the Bryced!
	♥ 2:16pm Bryce: oh no, this is the one i played this year already! 2021 swiss cheese brain!
	♥ 2:17pm YETI BOB: @Ike: Interesting, I'd never heard about that! I have fantasized about a WFMU repeater in or near Chicago (grew up in NJ, moved out here about 25 years ago)
	♥ 2:21pm Kat in Chicago: That's wild, Ike! Really I am just getting fed up with Chicago though :) I remember in my early teens in Augusta, Georgia, picking up a station from Chicago on my radio at night. It was Top 40 but played some songs that my local stations didn't. I remember hearing the weather forecasts and thinking "how does anyone survive in those temperatures?"
	♥ 2:22pm YETI BOB: @Kat: If I may ask - fed up with the weather, or what?
	2:23pm David in London: Yeti Bob, Kpx, S&M&S, happy new thing to you groovers.
	♥ 2:23pm Kat in Chicago: @YETI the weather, and what. Lots of reasons.
	♥ 2:23pm Ike: @Yeti, in the radio biz, that type of station is known as a “rimshot”, i.e. it’s way out in some distant suburbs/exurbs and just barely reaches the city, and you might have to put your antenna in exactly the right place, or maybe it covers one side of town sorta well.
	♥ 2:25pm Krys O.: Absolutely gorgeous!
	♥ 2:26pm YETI BOB: Hey David! How's 2021 going for you so far? All I've done is drink coffee, smoke a bit, and listen to WFMU all day
	2:27pm David in London: Yeti Bob, well that sounds like the year is shaping up perfectly then! I’ve walked, eaten cake and tuned into Bryce, so mine has been pretty darned good so far, too.
	♥ 2:29pm -Ken: @Ike, @Kat, Yes, I built an 89.5fm station in Chesterton Indiana which grazed the outskirts of Chicago but the logistics proved too much for me and I sold the station to WBEZ and they turned it into the Vocalo station. This was a long time ago..
	♥ 2:31pm Kat in Chicago: Happy new year, Ken! It must have been a long time ago, I wasn't aware of that. WLUW, where I have my show, broadcasts Vocalo for two hours on weekday mornings.
	2:32pm kpx: @David iL: Cheers to you and 2021, still lurking about these days?
	♥ 2:32pm Handy Haversack: I'm trying to go the day without having to go outside. Less of a triumph than in years past, I guess, but still: you gotta have goals! Happy New Year, -Ken!
	♥ 2:33pm Kat in Chicago: Happy new year, Handy. We currently have freshly accumulated sleet on top of accumulated snow and ice from earlier in the week, so I ain't leaving the apartment. Glad I took out the garbage yesterday.
	♥ 2:34pm Handy Haversack: Oof, I hear that, Kat! Sleet Season. Sheesh. I grew up in Atlanta, and while I have come to love snow, the new normal of three months of sleet is a real downer. Happy New Year to you!
	♥ 2:37pm Kat in Chicago: Handy, what remains of my immediate family is in the Atlanta suburbs. My last three years of high school were in Avondale Estates. (My current neighborhood is called Avondale, so that's kind of odd.) I'll take snow over sleet and ice storms any day.
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: Avondale Estates! Home of the first Waffle House!
	♥ 2:38pm -Ken: @Kat, How is WLUW these days? Didnt the college kick everybody off a number of years ago?
	2:38pm ledzeppelinsucks: Read your new local and federal laws. There are thousands of them. Exchanging laws should be required and adding laws should be banned.
	♥ 2:39pm Kat in Chicago: Really, Handy? I didn't know that!
	2:39pm David in London: Kpx, I’m skulking rather than lurking, I think. Happy new year Kenmeister.
	♥ 2:41pm YETI BOB: I'm going to step out briefly to sweep slush off the steps before it freezes and put out some food for this cat we're trying to help - But other than that - not going anywhere! - making a fire in the fireplace and ordering pizzas and listening to all the great music.
	♥ 2:43pm Kat in Chicago: -Ken, what happened was control of the station reverted back to Loyola, someone got fired (I forget his name), and Shawn Campbell left with a lot of others and started what is now CHIRP (streaming and low-power FM). A few DJs/shows stayed, notably Destination Unknown which I eventually took over, and Abstract Science which is the other big electronic-music show there. We haven't been in the studio since Covid hit, of course. I am currently pre-recording my show at home and connecting with the studio computer via AnyDesk to stream it at show time (from a SoundCloud upload).
	♥ 2:46pm YETI BOB: I'm reading a little about the history of WAJW (the repeater station) - was on the air from 1995 to 2002 - I was in Chicago for most of that time, and totally unaware (our out of range), otherwise I would have tuned in!
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: Wow @Kat in Chicago. Kudos to you on your efforts.
	♥ 2:50pm Kat in Chicago: I was in New York from 1995-98, and my sojourn in Manhattan was where I first heard WFMU. I started listening online when I returned to Chicago as soon as I had means to do so, dropped away for a bit and came back circa 2009 I think.
	♥ 2:51pm luka: i did not know the WLUW/Chirp connection Kat, that’s interesting!
	♥ 2:52pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Krys!
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: Kat, Uncle Michael played your request.
	♥ 2:53pm Kat in Chicago: Hi, Luke, happy new year! Yeah that's how CHIRP came to be. Tbh I never listen, they are not very interesting to me. chresti - What request? :)
	♥ 2:54pm Ike: Kudos @Ken, I had forgotten that you built that station. Need new brain. As for Chirp that sounds a bit like the KUSF/KXSF fracas. Glad you’re still there Kat and that it didn’t get sold to a classical satellite monstrosity or whatnot.
	♥ 2:54pm chresti: Johnny Hartman? requested by Kat, a different Kat?
	♥ 2:55pm Kat in Chicago: chresti, a different Kat! There are one or two others on the chat boards.
	2:55pm ami ad: Thank you DJ. Crew.
	♥ 2:55pm YETI BOB: @Kat - I agree - when CHIRP was starting out I had hopes for it - nice to get a new radio station - but it doesn't hold my interest. I do like WLPN-LP though.
	♥ 2:55pm luka: hny, Kat! ^_^ since moving to VA, i mostly listen to wfmu can’t even recall why i started, but glad i did. a few Chirp shows are still appointment radio for me, but fewer, especially with Owen not on the air. i also miss going into the Loyola studios, that was fun when i would sit in during Chuck’s ska shows.
	♥ 2:56pm Kat in Chicago: Ike, I do appreciate that Loyola didn't sell the station entirely for quick buck$$!
	2:56pm The Butterman: Wow. Are you hearing what I’m hearing?
	♥ 2:56pm Bryce: happy new year, allyall!!!! xoxoxo
	♥ 2:57pm YETI BOB: I feel like I should listen to more local radio, but nothing is anywhere near to WFMU in quality
	♥ 2:57pm chresti: Thanks Bryce!. Nevermind, Kat
	♥ 2:57pm Handy Haversack: Crap, that went so fast! The future moves quick! Thanks, Bryce, -Ken, Team! Happy New Year to all who are still ragaing against the machine!
	2:59pm marianne: What a great show, thanks Bryce!
	2:59pm David in London: Thanks for a great show Bryce. Balm for the soul.
	♥ 2:59pm YETI BOB: A great way to spend 3 hours. Thank you Bryce for the excellent music picks. And it's been nice chatting with all the groovy people here. Happy 2021 to all of you.
	♥ 2:59pm Kat in Chicago: Thank you, Bryce!
	♥ 2:59pm Krys O.: Thanks, Bryce and everyone!
	♥ 3:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Bryce. Here's to new adventures in sonic 2021!
	3:00pm khd: i missed the whole show - crap!
	3:00pm Marc15: Happy New Year Bryce!!
