Hey Cory - any requests?

7:42am Michael:

Morning.

7:44am AnAnonymousParty:

Howdy. GIF #9, are those Skechers?

7:52am cory:

nah, nothing in particular

7:53am F³F³ (:

Good morning, Ken, cory, Michael!

Your last week's absence, Ken, meant last Wednesday didn't happen. Now my biological clock tells me today is Tuesday. You have meddle with the primal forces of my natural circadian rhythms, Mr Ken, and you will atone* !!

* Perhaps playing any *cough* Barenaked Ladies *cough* request coming from cory.

7:54am cory:

hahahaa

7:56am cory:

fofo, i don't think that will ever happen

8:09am cory:

but just in case www.youtube.com...

8:12am F³F³ (:

Ooooh, you mean the band, cory. All this time I thought you were requesting GIFs of ladies wearing no clothes.

8:14am cory:

well, that too

8:30am -Ken:

New segment debut: "SM Ken's Hazmat Update," coming up live on Wake and Bake radio in ten minutes, at 840am

8:31am groucho:

Burial - Come down to us
Superorganism - Nobody cares
Bow Wow Wow - Louis Quatorze
Mexrissey - Estuvo Bien (Suedehead)

They're the last 4 songs I added to my playlist, so they're also my requests x

8:32am groucho:

Oooh I do like hazmat updates

8:32am -Ken:

Thx Groucho!

8:34am F³F³ (:

Is it about the lava lamps?

8:38am cory:

is someone making meth in the basement again

8:42am Wild Neil:

PEACE All. Damn, Debbie Harry was hot. How about some new Blondie? I guess that's a given. That top GIF is disturbing, Ken. How about some 75 dollar bill? Or Dengue Fever? Maybe a country western Murder Ballad (suicide ballad) like The Handsome Family's "Weightless Again"?

8:47am -Ken:

Anybody catch the Hazmat Update??

8:47am F³F³ (:

I heard it, Mr Ken 'Disaster Newcaster' Freedman.

8:48am Frank from VT:

of course. Not sure if i should feell sad for the people there, or happy it's not me.

8:49am cory:

always glad to not hear my area mentioned

8:52am -Ken:

Still have some kinks to work out, like getting a working microphone.

8:58am Brendan:

The last gif is hilarious. Hi Ken and Schlampers.

8:59am Ken From Hyde Park:

Zats, I was washing dishes and missed the hazmat report. I must plan my days better, it appears.

9:03am Sem Chumbo:

Morning, SM Ken, and Band of Happy people.

9:04am doctorjazz:

(I had to close the Pop-Up to check if I wasn't hearing 2 different sites together, from another open tab, but, no, it was all one, cool!

9:04am steve:

great to finally hear Born to Run as Springstein intended

9:05am /mzm\:

State of Stations! Ken!!

9:06am Brian C.:

Ken your hazmat report for CP reminded me of an old Joe Frank episode, I think it was a similar news reports of area disasters

9:06am melinda:

morning Ken and everyone!

9:07am melinda:

Great hazmat report, btw. Fast-breaking and exciting content!

9:07am Cooh John:

From the pigeon to the big kahuna. Hanging in, everybody.

9:07am Vincent Nifigance:

@Ken, Care to comment on the allegations of voter fraud in WFMU's Most favourited Song list?

9:09am Sam:

What's at the bottom of that mud pit, Ken?

9:11am Sam:

Probably a bunch of muddy skeletons. Answered my own question.

9:12am -Ken:

@Sam, a double rainbow with sprinkles!

9:14am themutante:

KenSchlampen, forever!

9:14am tadpoles:

It's Alive!!

9:14am F³F³ (:

The Human Centipede band (aka The Reveries)! Don't even want to elaborate on why.

9:15am doctorjazz:

These guys (Happy Valley Band) are really cool, looking for their music now (not easy to find...)

9:15am -Ken:

I think Happy Valley Band is on Bandcamp

9:16am doctorjazz:

Never mind...
freemusicarchive.org...

9:16am -Ken:

Ah! Our own FMA!

9:16am cory:

also happyvalleyband.bandcamp.com...

9:17am Webhamster Henry:

Hiya Ken! All rested? Got any Jethros to segue to?

9:17am BronwynB:

hey ken and everyone!

9:19am Brendan:

That Reveries makes me want to hear some DooDooFlute

9:21am NotARealDoctor:

Hello. I've just tuned in late and would like to let you know that so far this is a top notch show this morning.

9:21am themutante:

Is that the ol' noseflute?

9:21am Webhamster Henry:

OK, the swing I'll Be Watching You is also always welcome.

9:23am cory:

gee, i know a great bluegrass cover of In the Air Tonight :)

9:23am (Murakami Whywolf))):

That's not so much swing as half-arsed ska.

9:25am jan:

Ken- FYI -you can read about Ken Rad-The history can be found on google! to this day there are corporate descendants to the company still making electronic gear.

9:25am themutante:

Sting should get into the noseflute instead of that damn lute.

9:25am Sam:

I'd call this swing, because the background rhythm is in triplets. Ska would be in 4/4 with the offbeats emphasized.

9:25am The Oscar:

Stwing.

9:26am Sam:

Or call it shwing, for shitty swing

9:26am Webhamster Henry:

"Every Breath" was a demo of echonest's resynthisis software.

9:27am Webhamster Henry:

I tried to run it on "My Pal Foot Foot". I don't think it could find the beat.

9:27am Nick S.:

hAHA!

9:29am AnAnonymousParty:

In "My Pal Foot Foo", the beat is nowhere to be found. I think the Go-Go's took it.

9:30am themutante:

That gif is going to be like this MayMac fight in a couple of months.

9:33am egal:

Oh no.

9:34am doctorjazz:

it's the Fruit of the Excrement, great!

9:34am sugarwolf:

Shittyflute!!! :)

9:34am michelle mello:

glad i tuned in right during the pooey flute :) hi ken!

9:34am JakeGould:

Avenue Mary!

9:35am Sam:

This is the punishment we all deserve. Thank you. So cleansing.

9:35am weiterso:

the worst of the wurst

9:35am Brendan:

FecalFlute

9:35am Listener142985:

Glamor cow gif has made my morning

9:35am FM mike:

Oh my God yes, this is so good :)

9:35am MD:

GOOD MORNING FREEFORM MALITIA!!!!

9:35am JakeGould:

Klonopin Klarinet!

9:36am cory:

this is the song i want my body to be dumped in the woods to

9:36am Brendan:

In the orchestra they refer to this as Flute Number Two

9:36am (Murakami Whywolf))):

That KenRad tube reminds me of being shewn to my new office in the mid-'80s, a luxurious fourth-floor elevator-less garret recently reclaimed from bats, and found that the hall immediately outside it was lit by a genuine, pointy, Mazda® lamp. These days, a graduate student would have stolen it and flogged it on eBay; back then who knows when or why it disappeared….

9:36am MD:

today new jersey tomorrow da world!!!

9:36am NotARealDoctor:

So after listening to these scheiseflauten segments carefully, I believe them to actually be a COMBINATION of nose flute (what you're hearing in the second verse here), AND the recorder (which we heard in the first verse). They make very different sounds.

9:37am fm Mike:

what is this now? It sounds like a basoon, or some Middle Eastern instrument.

9:37am Webhamster Henry:

I'm playing along with my Otamatone.

9:37am steveo:

good morning ken; aw man, i missed mash-up(s)

9:37am Jeezy:

That Shitty Flute may have been one of the most annoying songs ken has ever played. AND THAT SAYS A LOT...

9:38am themutante:

I'm playing along with my ZubeTube.

9:38am Vincent Nifigance:

Booooo!

9:38am Webhamster Henry:

Let's bring back the WFMU Telephone Jam!

9:38am melinda:

That was a really classy shittyflute.

9:40am Zach from Ann Arbor:

Hi Ken, Hi everyone! Good morning!

9:41am MD:

that cow it Hot!!!

9:42am Mark the Sardine:

That Happy Valley Band approach reminds me of double-translation experiments - take some text in English, Google Translate it into another language, then translate it a 2nd time back into English. Weird results

9:43am F³F³ (:

I thought Happy Valley Band was the guy Ken played two weeks ago (ie.John Meek).

9:44am F³F³ (:

By the way, who is the listener that gets very angry when Ken talks over this mic break classical music? Are you in here?

9:44am dennis rodman:

hi everybody ...just got back from chillin with my home boi "kimi"...man he's got an excellent porn collection.

9:45am Morphe:

Actually listening Live... Too hot here to be outside. Alternating between reading / listening to the radio naked in bed - not touching myself - and taking coolish showers.. must go now to pick up the offspring from school. I'll cathch the rest later in the archives. Thanks for Spinning. Morphe

9:45am Zach from Ann Arbor:

The story of why dennis rodman goes to NK is actually kidna interesting. Kim is a huge basketball fan and Vice said they'd bring dennis rodman to visit in return for letting them film a documentary.

9:46am -Ken:

Morphe in Madrid! Dont forget to hydrate, good buddy

9:47am Sam:

I'm listening in the future and it's freezing cold!! There's no more oil left and I can't turn the heat on. Envy you guys.

9:48am -Ken:

@Sam: Soylent Green is Hamburger. Just so you know

9:48am Vincent Nifigance:

@morphe don't forget to dress before going to the school.

9:48am doctorjazz:

Just bought the Happy Valley Band LP, couldn't resist (not going to make me popular at home).

9:49am F³F³ (:

Does the FCC allows people to listen to a radio while being naked? I don't think so, Ken, Morphe.

9:49am egal:

Naked listening is a thing.

9:50am Sam:

Not my fault I'm naked. I was born that way.

9:50am jonHhhy memematic:

when ya gonna play shadalay ...we keks have our needs

9:51am NotARealDoctor:

@egal I tried that once, but then my boss got all weird about it and started harassing me with questions like "WHY ARE YOU UNZIPPING YOUR PANTS IN YOUR CUBICLE?!"

9:51am AnAnonymousParty:

On the radio, nobody can tell if you are naked.

9:51am Sam:

Get the button fly. Totally silent.

9:52am —Ike:

@Mark the Sardine: The way of the Valley of the Valley of the Valley reminds me of attempts to translate two times. Negative consequences

9:52am The FCC:

Alright everybody, we're only going to say this once. Put your clothes on!

9:53am fm Mike:

This German guy's song before this reminded me of the music from and old PC game called Curse of the Mummy. It was really good.

9:55am fm Mike:

The sister game to that Mummy game was a Frankenstein game where Tim Curry played Dr Frankenstein. Not even kidding.

9:55am amber:

zach you didnt finnish....your thought. are kimi and dennis doing a porn film together...i"ll call my agent

9:55am MD:

JOY!

9:56am MD:

I WAS KICKED OUT OF THE GARDEN...

9:56am Webhamster Henry:

Mark Twain did the double translation thing too:
"The jumping frog : in English, then in French, then clawed back into a civilized language once more by patient, unremunerated toil"
archive.org...

9:57am weiterso:

great german music. how about playing Humppakavalier?

9:58am ɛɛk:

Happy Valley Band approach reminded me of the laboratory room double-grab some text in English, Google translate it into another language, then translate this in another language in English. Exotic results

9:59am (Murakami Whywolf))):

At the end of the day, I prefer the 'Safe Space' people to Parker and Stone.

9:59am Mark the Sardine:

@ɛɛk: Touché

9:59am Zach from Ann Arbor:

woah I did not expect a WFMU version of this!

9:59am Sam:

You could add a ska beat to this

10:00am Webhamster Henry:

Ken and Andy actually did a Seven Second Delay using the AT&T translation service onthe same principle, translating personal ads from the Village Voice. Note: this was around 1993.

10:01am the naked cowboy:

hey fcc does clear pleastic hefty bag count as attire

10:01am Sue P.:

the difficult music set was....difficult

10:02am Planet Tyler:

He needs to make version 2 - The Zinger Song

10:03am cory:

see you crazy cats at work

10:04am Sam:

Andy could write Ratrace, Railroad Bill and American Pie, but he couldn't write his own tuneless song about himself?

10:04am (((Murakami Whywolf):

That animated image for "Safe Space" brings to mind P.J. Farmer's "The Image of the Beast" which really should be the inspiration for a black-metal concept album.

10:04am MD:

That you still Surf Ken...THAT YOU STILL SURF...

10:06am Cecile:

Hola!

10:06am F³F³ (:

The Jokerfan is a marketing musical genius ahead of our time. I also like his film production approach of producing his own films based on what his cult following audience can afford.

10:07am -Ken:

@MD How you know I "still" surf? I just started actually

10:08am french fryed:

webhammmster you harlot of the dank night how dare you insult our gutteral utterences

10:10am Roberto:

This is currently my favorite rendition of What's so Funny.

10:11am Cecile:

I'd love to take up surfing. I love water and the ocean.

Ken, I'm having a week. Could you play Dissident Aggressor by Judas Priest or Slayer?

10:12am -Ken:

@Cecile, surfing is easy. Paddling back out is hard. I'll play Priest if things goes in the direction.. hang in there Cecile - I had a week LAST week. still recovering

10:14am Sam:

I have a hard time with anything where your feet are gliding out from under you. That includes ice skating, roller skating, roller blading, skiing, water skiing, snow boarding, skateboarding and surfing.

10:14am Cecile:

Am I a savage for preferring the Tracey Ullman version to all others?

10:15am geoff mcq:

@cecile I was just thinking the same thing.

10:15am SheWolf:

You are not Cecile. I prefer Tracy's too.

10:17am Cecile:

Good!

10:17am F³F³ (:

When I was not teaching him how to lit fires I used to play Slayer's videos to my flatmate's 5 year-old son to counter her religious indoctrination (i.e. playing him Jesus Christ cartoons). I was the good guy in the flat.

10:17am Sebastian:

wow - what movie is that serpend dance gif from? I have to see that.

10:18am themutante:

This makes me think of 'I might be wrong' by Radiohead.

10:18am -Ken:

OK, nect time I play "They Dont Know," I'll play Tracey U's versione

10:20am tadpoles:

Kirsty MacColl's is excellent too.

10:21am Cecile:

I have to say yesterday, I was unreasonably moved by Katie shouting out to me about how I turned her on to Flying Nun records, and Brian Turner giving me a shout out too (all I did stumble onto a bunch of Alpaca Brothers videos on YouTube). It makes my daily struggles more bearable knowing that something I did once mattered a little. Okay, maudlin time is over.

10:21am -Ken:

Yeah played Kirsty's original version a few weeks ago. I think Kirsty does the high pitched "baby" yelp on Tracey Ullman's version.

10:21am -Ken:

@Sebastian, that's from "Queen Snake Part 2: The Snakening"

10:22am french frier:

webhammerclaw I challenge you to a duel in our hot air ballooons wearing pantaloons

10:24am Cecile:

Thanks, Ken!

10:25am BronwynB:

thats so nice cecile!

10:25am Sebastian:

10:27am cory@work:

haha, back again!

10:27am Lixiviated Life:

So anyway, I saw the Netflix doc Sex and Broadcasting...

10:27am Nick S.:

This singles disc is excellent.

10:27am Sebastian:

love Dave Soldier and all his whacky stuff

10:30am F³F³ (:

Why my father indoctrinated me with Yes while he listened to Can? Isn't that some kind of child abuse?

10:31am french friar:

fcc you must'nt worry your pretty faces...see i put pantaloons on to satisfy your needs for silly affectations

10:31am AnAnonymousParty:

I'm gonna chew the Hell outta this piece of gum.

10:32am howard in nyc:

Ah, I missed nick Lowe/Brinsley Swartz doing What's So Funny... stupid work. I'll have to listen to the vinyl when I get home, man that's an old record

10:33am Vincent Nifigance:

@F³F³ (: Maybe he figured you'd rebel against great stuff if he played it too much. I don't foist the great stuff on my kids, thinking they'll discover it for themselves later in life, but reject it if I bombard them throughout their childhoods. You found CAN now, right?

10:36am Cecile:

Hahaha, a Russian hacker named Matt.

10:36am howard in nyc:

Despite my multiple votes for Heavy Metal, I am not a kremlin stooge.

10:36am Lizardner Dave:

That wasn't hackers, that was revenge for Glen Jones.

10:37am rsj:

stop baggin on don henly

10:37am groucho:

YES!

10:37am βrian:

Russians like to Heavy Meddle. Da.

10:37am doctorjazz:

Go Felder!!!

10:37am Planet Tyler:

I do turn off the volume for a few minutes during Matt's every show...

10:37am howard in nyc:

And next time I'm voting for Poco

10:37am charlie_p:

damn those rustic commie hackers. i bet they did it from macedinia

10:38am steveo:

ken please put the clicky-star ranked list on the WFMU web site

10:38am A Better Me:

bbq bb

10:38am groucho:

I wish I'd used the favourites more in the last few years, but I'm sure Buddy Scott Trio is one of the songs I did favourite back when it started

10:38am listener Rey:

I would favorite the crap out of a Khlam song. This one ain't cutting it

10:38am doctorjazz:

Tempting to vote for this, however...

10:38am Spankyflop:

I will do anything to upset an Eagle.

10:38am Planet Tyler:

Russian hackers screw with my starred stuff. I definitiely had juicy hot meat starred from before

10:38am F³F³ (:

Interesting, Vincent Nifigance. Yes, I re-discovered CAN via Ken's show some time ago.

10:38am NotARealDoctor:

Is this a troll? I tried to favorite this, but the star just spins and doesn't light up...

10:39am Webhamster Henry:

Boosting Alex Kubin's star totals is also a good idea.

10:39am doctorjazz:

Testing my Heavy Mettle..

10:39am Cecile:

How about Caledonia?

10:39am Karen in Sleepy Hollow:

Definitely hearting this

10:39am steveo:

i think you misspelled "garbecue" amirite?

10:39am steve:

guys just go to the Strength Through Failure page and favorite Mr Giant Man, the RIGHTFUL most clicky favorited song on the station

10:39am Roberto:

I will gladly favorite the Barbecue song. And I'm a friggin' vegan!

10:39am Vincent Nifigance:

You are witnessing the single greatest WITCH HUNT in American musical history.

10:40am charlie_p:

on behalf of glenn jones ...goodmorning to all the jerk offs in rockland county

10:40am βrian:

When I was accepted into the Order, my hair was cut into a tonsure, and I took an oath to never click on stars.

10:40am Sue P.:

@Vincent Nifigance. Agreed.

10:40am Sebastian:

I already yearn for next weeks 11 am dose of Felder. still I hope there will be an investigation regarding Comrade Warwickovichs ties to Russia. To clear his name!

10:40am -Ken:

Come on people! Favorite this song! An Eagle cannot occupy the top spot!

10:40am Serpico:

barbecue - summertime - Wednesdays - do i see a connection?

10:41am Planet Tyler:

I cant favourite it. FAKE STAR.

10:41am Matt Warwick:

This ain't right.

10:41am NotARealDoctor:

@Ken, I tried, but it doesn't let me favorite it for some reason? I tried refreshing, but I think Don Felder must've hacked that particular song...

10:41am Vincent Nifigance:

Matt said Ken would come out strong...

10:41am doctorjazz:

Can we star Hotel California?

10:41am adrian in mpls:

Clicky clicky!

10:41am groucho:

Summertime is a song by The Sundays though Matt

10:42am steveo:

leave it to ken to find a song worse than Felder's

10:42am A Better Me:

this song is best for sexy bedroom time

10:42am maestroso:

@Ken - done!

10:42am Sebastian:

This is all a big ruse, Ken loves the Eagles, I heard he even has an Eagles tattoo.

10:42am Sue P.:

I bet a Don Felder version on Barbecue would get more favs.

10:42am Vincent Nifigance:

Must...resist...urge to...CLICK!

10:42am Lixiviated Life:

Ok, I'll just click on... just clink this little... I... (no, not gonna happen, sorry)

10:43am AnAnonymousParty:

He's a meteor?

10:43am rsj:

just realizing i too have a bill murray monkey on my back

10:43am NotARealDoctor:

wfmu.org...

That's where I had to go to click the star!

10:43am charlie:

garbagbbq time stevio

10:43am Lizardner Dave:

I just un-favorited it since I had favorited it months ago. Viva Felder! Eat it, Freedman!

10:43am The Oscar:

I'll admit that I've starred this, Heavy Metal, AND Mr. Giant Man. I just enjoy stirring the pot.

10:44am Yvang:

Hello people I favorited Angel Witch too

10:44am NotARealDoctor:

Ken, you might get more favorites for The Sunrays singing I Live for the Sun

10:44am Cecile:

I would love to hear Killdozer do barbecue.

10:45am Vincent Nifigance:

@TheOscar Classic Oscar the Grouch.

10:45am orpheusviking:

F*** the eagles
except joe walsh, he's pretty cool

10:45am Sue P.:

@Cecile - YES!!!

10:46am JtotheK:

clicky-starred the wonderful barbecue tune a while ago... though 'Mr Giant Man' being at the top of the list, that seems about right.

10:46am F³F³ (:

Ken has an -arguably- un-ironic Eagles tattoo. Just saying.

10:47am doctorjazz:

Maybe Tequila Sunrise...?

10:47am JtotheK:

request: Wendy Rene 'bar-b-q' on stax - pretty please!

10:47am Cecile:

Hey, could you play the greatest summer song ever, Killdozer's Going to the Beach.

10:47am Sebastian:

so hungry all of a sudden

10:48am chuckie schoomer:

my red queen just went dancin backwards into the woods of scanton pa with a sacrificial dagger between her teeth after seeing a vision of a panda. the white panda

10:49am Dean:

Nihilist Spasm Band?

10:50am F³F³ (:

It is Dean, it is.

10:50am charlie_p:

i think its time for the red pill kiddies....from a concerned peta member...people eating tasty animals

10:52am F³F³ (:

This Happy Valley Band is great! First time listener.

10:53am buddy:

Glad you enjoy the BBQ song. May you have many a summer feast!

10:53am chuckie shroomer:

debbi wasserman your the burning ring of fire's sacrifice....get over it .you can have a therapy dog in the afterlife

10:55am Irwin:

Songwriting credit for "Folsom Prison Blues" was awarded to Gordon "Seven Dreams" Jenkins after the settlement of a copyright infringement suit against Cash.

10:56am groucho:

YES!

10:58am Roberto:

French Toast Man?

10:58am chuckie schroomer:

that bbq song is so wavy like gravy undulating before my eyes

10:59am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Barnes and Barnes' "Work the Meat"?

10:59am Planet Tyler:

Can we just hack Matt to not ever play that song again?

11:00am Webhamster Henry:

The Puddles the Clown version of Pinball Wizard to the tune of Folsom Prison is worth a listen. www.youtube.com...

11:00am AnAnonymousParty:

And Fishheads.

11:00am bk845:

I'm confused...You want us to *favorite* Heavy Metal by Don Felder?

11:01am slugluv1313:

NEXT! NEXT!!

11:01am groucho:

I'd never be off my computer if I fasvourited all the sings I liked. I'll try harder though.

11:02am rsj:

irony of the co-opting of the eagles by russia

11:02am -Ken:

@bk845 Normally I'd say follow your heart but in this case, I must say FUCK NO!!!

11:02am Roberto:

This song is Next...on my list of favorited songs!

11:02am Webhamster Henry:

You can play Irwin's cover of Next from Hoof 'n' Mouth a few years ago.

11:03am Sebastian:

@bk945 yes he does, just go to one of Matt Warwicks playlists and klick on the yellow star next to the best song of all eternity: www.wfmu.org...

11:03am Vincent Nifigance:

@bk845 Which of course is code for "Yes, please". We can't be too careful with all these spies around.

11:03am Dean:

"To be necks'd"?

11:04am cory@work:

great music to fry bacon to

11:04am bk845:

Ok, I favorited both Garbage Time and Heavy Metal...Am I doing this right?
:)

11:04am tadpoles:

Thinking of the Scott Walker doc where he thumps a slab of meat down just for the sound!

11:05am Googly Eyed Hosiery:

I am definitely not Russian hacker paid to clikstar Felder most favorite song!

11:05am -Ken:

Thank you all so much! We have unseated Don Felder from the position of prominence that he never earned. The Buddy Scott Trio now occupies the top spot. Now to destroy all copies the Heavy Metal soundtrack.. I will be right back.

11:05am Serpico:

@bk845 yes, you are!

11:05am Matt ww:

There is no proof of a hack. Heavy Metal is just the best song. \m/

11:06am Vincent Nifigance:

Buddy Scott Trio has 72, Don was over 101 yesterday...FAKE NEWS!

11:06am Matt ww:

Felder Star Count: 108

11:07am -Ken:

Buddy is actually at 115

11:07am Lamb Chop:

I am also definitely not that thing you complain of.

11:07am french hammerster:

was the german lieutenant who spanked bottoms wearing pantaloons ?

11:07am Cecile:

I saw the opening ceremonies for the Life Ball gala in Vienna. Conchita was MC and sang, and Ute Lemper did two numbers! She was great.

11:07am F³F³ (:

Buddy! Buddy! Buddy! Buddy! Buddy! Buddy!

11:07am Serpico:

@Lamb Chop: are you the song that never ends?

11:08am Matt ww:

I demand a recount.

11:08am Sebastian:

strange that 'only' 108 people have favourited the best song ever, probably because it's such an obvious favourite.

11:09am JakeGould:

Logging in to say that I unclicky starred everything I ever clicky starred and don’t clicky star anything. I’m not submitting to big data anymore!

11:10am JakeGould:

I also removed all of my iTunes star and heart ratings and have trashed all my Amazon reviews.

11:10am Dean:

If clicking a star is selecting a favorite, then logically one can click only one star.

11:10am Cecile:

She did a German version of Where Have All The Flowers gone, while gorgeously costumed people fell to the ground and pretended to die around her. Gorgeously heavy handed and a very Teutonic sensibility.

11:11am Dean:

I mean, I "like" both of my kids, but neither of them is my "favorite."

11:11am doctorjazz:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:11am Listener142985:

poor Nosferatu-that's it for him

11:12am slugluv1313:

@ french hammerster: perhaps! or maybe rumba pants?? www.babykins.com...

11:12am SeanG:

Laurice!!

11:12am -Ken:

Buddy Scott's true count is 118 and rising.

11:12am Cliff in Prague:

LAURICE.

11:12am F³F³ (:

Big thanks to all those 115 people! You deserve the best meat! A juicy and hot meat for you!

11:13am Sebastian:

@Cecile you know the version done by Marlene Dietrich?: www.youtube.com...

11:13am Vincent Nifigance:

Ken is bussing voters in from Rockland County and Mount Hope...

11:13am Serpico:

if loving the clickey star is wrong, then i don't want to be right.

11:13am Cecile:

This is reaky and weird and I kind of love it.

11:14am Cecile:

Creaky!

11:14am F³F³ (:

That's democracy in action, Ken. Plus my automated clickity bots.

11:14am BronwynB:

"i watched as your health failed, our bed became your jail"

jesus christ i wasn't ready for that

11:14am Sebastian:

this is an outrage

11:14am doctorjazz:

Time for ballot stuffing.

11:15am steve:

WOW this is a heavy song, geez

11:15am SeanG:

oh naughty sneaky

11:15am charlie:

these clinky stars are starting to sound like chard recount....lets just kill julias caeser and have a bunch of bloody civil wars to settle the reissue

11:16am Cecile:

Bronwyn - dedicated to his partner who died of AIDS. Very gut wrenching.

11:17am Mr. Lowry:

Are clicky stars related in any way to these fidget spinners I've been hearing about?

11:18am Jeff:

If there is war between Ken's winged monkeys and Matthew's garbaggios, nothing will be left but death and ash. We must broker some kind of peace.

11:18am charlie:

thanks for the update vincente...we'll be monitering the poles though i dont know why we think the polish had anything to do with it

11:19am Cecile:

Jeff, or favorite Tonetta's Drugs, the song that unites us all.

11:19am dgg:

this funeral song the best thing i've heard all year

11:19am herb.nyc:

i just read a SLEAFORD MODS interview in mag THE BIG TAKEOVER (came out last month, Chrissie Hynde on cover). they have a lyric: "Brian Eno, what does he know?". good question.

11:19am Sebastian:

I just recently learned about this Hatfields/McCoys stuff, I hope this feud does not go that far

11:21am Cecile:

Sebastian, I am not! Thank you!

11:21am charlie -psued:

i want to get a call from doctor death ....i luv his sales pitch

11:21am Sebastian:

that also started with something about a pig/meat, right?

11:23am AnAnonymousParty:

This is your tattoo on drugs.

11:23am F³F³ (:

charlie-psued,

I'm hearing you! In fact, let Ken and Andy do a SSD episode based on Dr Death (i.e. telemarketers calling people on behalf of a clinic specialised in euthanasia).

11:26am Ryab:

That's a great idea!

11:26am Cliff in Prague:

Now I want to hear other stoned reggae covers of Kate Bush songs.

11:28am femme fatal movement:

you tell ray raygun that he has certainly triggered us. hear us roar in solidity..we b drunken whores...oh no dr. death is coming for us

11:28am Cecile:

Jonathan Winters was a very dark person.

11:31am khd:

great set for getting ready for work, thanks ken

11:31am F³F³ (:

I saw some clips of Jonathan Winters on youtube. Gotta say he is great in a WFMU sense!

11:32am charlie:

johnathan winters the proto type for robin williams

11:32am Cliff in Prague:

Ken - looks like the artist on Wuthering Heights should be Jah Wurzel, it came out on the Hybrid Kids compilation - www.discogs.com...

11:34am Cliff in Prague:

(Also if you google "Hybrid Kids" you find a bunch of people who think they are litterally the offspring of space aliens, which is just great)

11:35am The Oscar:

I remember seeing an old Looney Tunes cartoon where Yosemite Sam screams "OPEN THE DOOR!" then turns to the camera and says "You notice I didn't say 'Richard?'" It confused the hell out of me as a kid.

11:35am thekenschlampen:

what a great song, the inspiration for bob dylans open the door homer

11:35am tadpoles:

Jah Wurtzel is actually Morgan Fisher of Mott The Hoople.

11:35am Webhamster Henry:

Open the Door Richard! -> Dave's Not Here (Cheech & Chong)

11:36am thekenschlampen:

i also totally dig louis jordans version of dont let the sun catch u cryin

11:36am Dean:

"Richard's not here."

11:36am thekenschlampen:

are you playing this off a 78?

11:36am F³F³ (:

MELVIN VAN PEEEBLESS!!!

I might be wrong but I believe he is the father of Melvins. Yeah, that grunge guy and his band from Washington.

11:36am Cooh John:

I hear you knocking but you can't come in.

11:36am charlie:

robin williams comedic albilities were his protective mechanism no ego shrinker could penetrate

11:37am Serpico:

opeen theh dooorh reechaard!

11:38am Sam:

Kaaayeeezaaxxkhlatcocoscchaaaahaa's not here, man.

11:38am dgg:

the Japanese "is dave home"?

11:39am ɛɛk:

Now to be certain, you should all ALSO clicky-star "Mr. Giant Man" by James Last! Go here:
www.wfmu.org...

All who have ever associated with the Eagles must be obliterated! Burn them with FIRE! Nuke them from orbit -- it's the only way to be sure!

11:39am Sam:

Dave has been banished to the land of wind and ghosts

11:39am Rich in Washington:

I just tried to star a gif.

11:40am Mick:

The Oscar: thank you for jarring that Loony Tunes memory! I had the same kind of "why would that be funny?" reaction. Have never made the connection.

11:40am Rich in Washington:

Hassan is the Middle East's answer to Rick Dees.

11:40am Sam:

Piece of hot meeeeeeeeeat please

11:41am Dean:

TBS is redeemable. You know, Poco.

11:41am Rich in Washington:

Thanks for this virtually unsearchable song, Ken. I now play it over the house PA system at our office when we have our regular barbecue.

11:41am Christian K:

nice piece

11:41am charlie_p:

does grunge rhyme with orange....rhyming orange has become my sole focus in life.

11:42am Sam:

Maybe segue from this into We can make sandwiches?

11:42am Sebastian:

if the knocking won't stop, I won't stop calling people to get the hell in

11:42am thekenschlampen:

i got some smoke in my eyes, but not bbq smoke

11:42am Cliff in Prague:

Or Meat Sweats

11:42am Sebastian:

I'm soooooo hungry

11:43am Serpico:

YAAS meat sweats! xD

11:43am Dean:

FCC is Norwegian for "fuckhead."

11:44am The Oscar:

@Mick The extent to which Looney Tunes has extended certain pop cultural references has always fascinated me. Children probably still imitate Edward G. Robinson and Peter Lorre without having a clue who they are.

11:44am BEAVO:

Daves not here

11:45am charlie p:

does the red queen stab the beast of the bbq with her steely dan knifes?

11:45am ?:

that wasn't norwegian, it was swedish.

11:45am Carmichael:

I'm saying hello at this point, simply because I can.

11:45am Rich in Washington:

For some absurd reason, I got it in my head that Barbecue segues perfectly into Killdozer's Going to the Beach. I cannot hear one without the other now.

11:46am BEAVO:

Heavy Metal gets played every week, so...

11:46am Dean:

Heavy l'Meat

11:47am howard in nyc:

Hey Carmichael, this heat wave in the west hitting the Sac Valley?

11:47am BronwynB:

NEXT!

jacques brel's original is the best one.

11:47am BronwynB:

here it is. jacques attack everyone! www.youtube.com...

11:48am JtotheK:

@Ken - where does Clarence Carter 'Stroking' land on the list of Most Favorite WFMU songs? (Hopefully top 10...)

11:48am Rich in Washington:

Ohh. I was hoping Jacques Brel did a version of the Barbeque song.

11:48am BronwynB:

le barbecue

11:49am BronwynB:

jet boy jet girl?

11:49am Yvang:

Sacré Gérard!

11:49am FCC:

Låten heter 'ca plane pour moi'

11:49am Sam:

You can be the buns, and I can be the burger girl.

11:49am Rich in Washington:

One could almost make a whole section of a large record library consisting of convicted paedophiles/sex offenders.

11:49am BronwynB:

there it is.

11:50am Christian K:

Plus précisément Gérard a été le début de sa carrière ...

11:50am Dean:

Johnny Rotten and Martin Guerre

11:50am BronwynB:

ooo, cool french version

11:50am Lixiviated Life:

(sudden flashback to my ill spent youth)

11:50am The Oscar:

Never forget: www.avclub.com...

11:50am Sebastian:

the king of the divan!

11:51am F³F³ (:

Just give deep learning (artificial intelligence) 2-5 years and we will have Jacques Brel singning Barbecue. Or any artist singing any song from any other artist.

11:51am BronwynB:

the english version of this comes up in my spotify discover weekly like every single week for some reason, idk what that says about me

11:51am Christian K:

Dieu ... un morceau quand j'étais jeune ...

11:52am F³F³ (:

Wait..Was that Gerard Depardieu, the beloved by Putin French (now Russian) actor?

11:52am Carmichael:

@howard, it's been 109 every day since Saturday. Supposed to be hotter by Thursday, then "cooling" to about 100.

11:53am D:

Lyrebird: https://www.theverge.com/2017/4/24/15406882/ai-voice-synthesis-copy-human-speech-lyrebird

11:53am βrian:

The happiest sweater in the world.

11:54am Yvang:

Gerard the plane pee pisser.

11:54am JakeGould:

Whoa! Ken made a coherent transition! Mazel
Tov!

11:54am Christian K:

les temps étaient bestiales ... la musique ... quel rythme ....

11:55am Sem Chumbo:

Rocking out, Jet Boy Ken.
See ya next time.

11:57am Mark Williams:

Ken - the song that goes with this newscaster/punk gif is "Kill Lou Guzzo" by the Dehumanizers. Up your alley, I'd dare say.

11:57am F³F³ (:

This has become the saddest song in the world since it signals Ken's show is over.. SAD!

Till next episode, Ken people! THanks for everything!

11:58am Cliff in Prague:

Thanks Ken!

11:58am Sebastian:

Thanks Ken!

11:58am cory@work:

great show thanks

11:58am -Ken:

Bye everybody!

11:58am Christian K:

11:58am bobo:

Please sir DJ, I just finished my shift. Can I still request a song?

11:59am Listener Robert:

Yay!

11:59am Mick:

Thanks Ken!

11:59am Christian K:
