Listener comments!

♥ 11:45am listener james from westwood:

good late morning, amanda and all!

♥ 11:47am listener james from westwood:

"mad men" echoed your last wed. show's playlist by featuring "love is blue" over the credits of last sun's ep.

♥ 11:56am listener james from westwood:

(they actually played an "fmu hit" the week before: "bonnie and clyde." if they play silver apples or the vu later in this season i will likely lose my mind.)

♥ 11:58am pacific standard simon:

I Walk The Dogs

(Sonny Curtis/ PS Simon)

Walkin' Rover in the pale sun
I walk the dogs to the dog run (twice)
I needed money 'cause I had none
So I walk the dogs to the dog run (twice)

I walk the purebreds and I walk the mutts
Until they dooty's done
I pick up their poo in a little plastic bag
I walk the dogs to the dog run (twice)

♥ 11:59am Carmichael:

Good morning Amanda and listeners-to-be.

♥ 12:02pm Eugene:

Happy May Day, everyone.

♥ 12:05pm Danne D:

Hiya Amnazz and everyone :)

♥ 12:06pm fleep:

Greetings, Amanda and streamers

♥ 12:06pm Uncle Michael:

Hello drumheads.

♥ 12:11pm Karl Marx:

May Day! May Day! May Day!

♥ 12:14pm Amanda:

Hi everybody! I was held up by the PATH train and got here with about 3 minutes to spare. I'm glad I made it!!! And it's so nice to see you all!

There will be NO MORE Mad Men spoilers henceforth.

♥ 12:14pm listener james from westwood:

punch out, marx! punch out!

♥ 12:14pm Matt from Springfield:

Hey Amanda and everyone!

Excellent show last Friday! If you didn't catch it, check the Archive!

♥ 12:14pm listener james from westwood:

roger that on the spoilers! (no pun intended)

♥ 12:16pm Uncle Michael:

I've heard that I could watch other things on the baseball screen but I've never tried it. It's true?

♥ 12:16pm Matt from Springfield:

Whew, great timing!
@LJFW: Not a Mad Men Maniac (myself), but read a blog post about that episode, on reactions to MLK's death. "Love Is Blue" rocked the A/C charts in '68, so good chronological placement.

♥ 12:16pm Amanda:

Oooh, that pun was totally intended. (I am quite glad that they played Love Is Blue, though!)

♥ 12:17pm Doug Schulkind:

This sounds frighteningly similar to the Food Emporium jingle.

♥ 12:17pm Uncle Michael:

I want to shop at a store that has a jingle that sounds like this.

♥ 12:18pm Matt F:

Please no Mad Men spoilers or anything even resembling spoilers until I can steal cable!

♥ 12:19pm Matt F:

Star Trek spoilers welcome.

♥ 12:20pm Carmichael:

The tribbles hate Romulans.

♥ 12:20pm Uncle Michael:

I'm beginning to develop debut shpilkes.

♥ 12:20pm listener james from westwood:

heh, haven't heard this trek tune since ferever!
matt, the right folding money into the right serviceperson's hand can work wonders. just watch for their truck outside the building. but you didn't hear it from me.

♥ 12:21pm Matt F:

Wow, Jimmy Page's 80s band the Firm is better than I remembered.

♥ 12:21pm Uncle Michael:

There have been a lot of bands called The Firm.

♥ 12:22pm Uncle Michael:

Some guys in Omaha were already called The Firm when Page's band released their debut. Three of the members of the band were lawyers. The trademark had been registered. They sued and settled. The fourth guy in the band managed the record store where I traded.

♥ 12:23pm Artie:

And yet very few bands named The Softies. Self image issues I suppose.

♥ 12:23pm listener james from westwood:

amanda, are you caught up w the end of last season's "mm," or are you still working thru earlier seasons? (and apologies for blabbing, btw. npr spoiled a hyooge moment in another currently popular cable drama for me, so i know the feeling.)

♥ 12:27pm Matt F:

I can speak for Amanda, who is probably too busy to type a full response, when I say that we are caught up through the first couple of episodes of this current season but we didn't manage to get invited to the home of someone with cable last week.

♥ 12:28pm Amanda:

I'm caught up with last season, and with the first three episodes of this season. It's my favorite show, maybe ever*, but certainly my favorite that is currently on.

*Except for the Young Ones, Beavis & Butt-Head, and Lassie

♥ 12:28pm Doug Schulkind:

It's all over social media that "someone" saw Cheap Trick this week.

♥ 12:29pm Matt F:

Jinx! Sunday night was pretty good anyway though, as I imagine Amanda is about to explain...

♥ 12:30pm Uncle Michael:

@Doug: Someone attended a county fair?

♥ 12:30pm listener james from westwood:

with you on the young ones. pivotal moment in my sense of humor, that show was.
i don't have cable, so it's itunes for mm, breaking bad, and parks & rec for me. i suspended netflix when work and life kept me from viewing the discs i was getting but loved it when i had it.

♥ 12:32pm Matt F:

They didn't play Dream Police, but Robin Zander did put on the Dream Police hat at some point during the set.

♥ 12:32pm Danne D:

Saw Cheap Trick at Mabel's back when I was in college. I think Robin Zander actually was in town checking out U of I with his son. And now his son is old enough that soon enough he'll take his son (if he has one) to check out colleges like the U of I

♥ 12:34pm Uncle Michael:

I'm afraid my first CT show was in 1979...DP tour.

♥ 12:34pm Danne D:

You were 9 in 1987 and yet you are 25 years old. This is not logical.

♥ 12:37pm Matt from Springfield:

But it's always 2003, Danne! :)

♥ 12:37pm Matt from Springfield:

@Fiveash: Dream Police HAT? Wow, what does it look like?

♥ 12:37pm Nate K:

I saw Cheap Trick play 4 songs in a thunder storm at Coney Island. They were shut down by the Man (the plug literally pulled) just as Rick made a gallant effort to transition from whatever song they were playing into "Surrender," knowing it would be their last song.They played "California Man," which I've always loved and "He's a Whore" Good times. Robin Zander looked like a Rob Halford impersonator who forgot to shave his head.

♥ 12:40pm Matt F:

MFS: upload.wikimedia.org...

♥ 12:43pm Matt from Springfield:

@Fiveash: Cool!
Nice uniforms for said dream police--what I'd expect them to look like.

♥ 12:46pm Amanda:

@Danne -- 25? They all told me I was 14. I am very flattered.

♥ 12:48pm Uncle Michael:

FoW fans will get a cookie on Friday...but just one.

♥ 12:53pm Nate K:

@Artie, For what it's worth, there's a Danish Softies. They sang this tune:
youtu.be...

♥ 12:54pm Danne D:

yay Young Fresh Fellows!

♥ 12:54pm Uncle Michael:

Mr. Softy would be a great band name. Someone must have used it.

12:57pm ndbob:

afternoon Amanda and everyone!

♥ 12:58pm Amanda:

Afternoon ndbob and everyone!

♥ 1:02pm Uncle Michael:

jeepers...yes

♥ 1:03pm Matt from Springfield:

@UM: "Mr. Soft", that was a Cockney Rebel song, wasn't it?

♥ 1:03pm Uncle Michael:

thank you, Amanda

♥ 1:04pm Uncle Michael:

I think that's right, Matt.

♥ 1:05pm Doug Schulkind:

And three cheers to GTDR's D:O Radio (wfmu.org...), which broadcast LIVE this week for the first time!!

♥ 1:06pm fleep:

I feel the momentous.

♥ 1:15pm Uncle Michael:

And kudos to Doug for putting two launches on his plate in the same week!

♥ 1:15pm Uncle Michael:

Two launches could spoil your supper.

♥ 1:19pm Amanda:

Yes, kudos to Doug and to Jeff and Jeff!!!

♥ 1:25pm fleep:

This station is overrun with Jeffs. Hence, "fleep."

♥ 1:26pm Stevel:

All Jeffs and no Akbar? Alas.

♥ 1:26pm Amanda:

GASP fleep, you are one of THEM?!?

♥ 1:31pm Amanda:

If anyone needs me, I will be at Akbar and Jeff's Tofu Hut

♥ 1:32pm listener james from westwood:

must bug out for a bloody conf call; thanks for the fine show, a!

♥ 1:34pm Rich in Washington:

why are people so afraid to admit to having listened to Dr. Demento?

♥ 1:39pm Amanda:

I emphasize that I don't have the same fear anymore, but you can imagine how it was when I was 17.

♥ 1:41pm Matt F:

This is best one though.

♥ 1:43pm Rich in Washington:

@Amanda: You may have a point there. I think Dr. D completely warped my music sensibility when I was in the 7th grade, when other boys were getting into KISS, etc..
But then, I remember feeling kinda dorky about having listened to that show much later on.

♥ 1:44pm Uncle Michael:

wha'ppen

1:45pm northguineahills:

rather blank...

♥ 1:45pm Danne D:

where'd the sound go? :(

♥ 1:45pm Amanda:

Note: Etta James CD was a gift about a year ago from my gentleman friend

♥ 1:46pm Carmichael:

Ya, I'm getting no audio.

♥ 1:46pm Carmichael:

OK, there we go.

♥ 1:47pm Danne D:

Yay :)

1:47pm northguineahills:

Yeah, I used to listen to Dr. Demento all the time on Armed Forces Radio from age 10-12, and only listened to a few popular things aside from the Violent Femmes, but that not too far from Dr. Demento territory.

♥ 1:47pm Carmichael:

I like any song that refers to a woman as "mama".
