How do, Doug and other ecstatics! Opened my listening day at 2:30 am (!!) to chase a noon deadline via the accompaniment of archives from Liz Berg and Bethany Ryker, two amazing women whose shows I do miss.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:07am Doug Schulkind:

I miss those great people/DJs, too, Listener James! On a related note, I have noticed that the new/upcoming WFMU schedule appears to have more women on it than ever before. #thrilling #stillmoreworktodo
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 8:18am listener james from westwood:

Good news indeed! I am among those who count vs. the previous schedule. Hoping Zoe is able to do some fill-ins during her down time, but glad to see Therese, Amanda's new cohosting gig, and new-to-me Adrienne!

Quite surprised to see Ken taking a knee for a season, but yay for the Long Rally—primo show in general, and especially to have on while copyediting/proofreading!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:24am Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
Do you find instrumental music more compatible with editing? I always did.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 8:30am listener james from westwood:

You know, I work for an editing service, and one of the staffers there asked the freelancers just this week what we listen to while doing editorial work. Wide, wide range of answers. In my case, I mentioned FMU in particular, and cited shows playing instrumental or not heavily lyrical music, but that I can also work with lyric-accompanied music, as long as it's not too jarring vs. the work or too familiar (like 5 or 6 classic-rock tunes in a row would be bad; I just follow along too closely; one "WFMU hit," no prob).
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 8:32am listener james from westwood:

For super-intensive editing, playlists like Bryce's, Scott McD's, Noise & Syrup, A440/Stochastic, a lot of Kurt's, Pounding System, Lamin, and the like are my go-tos.

I've been real happy with the breadth and depth of some the new WFMU young 'uns. There are some on-mic styles that drive me crazy (bear in mind I left the US 20 years ago last week -- I accept that the language done changed), but FMU remains the station that plays the good stuff.

  10:58am Dean:

I once attended an Indian music and dance festival in Long Beach, CA. It took place in a large community auditorium, and a majority of the attendees were, not surprisingly, Indian. The women wore saris. I wore my customary t-shirt and jeans. One of the Indian women in a sari seated near me turned to me and said, "You're the only comfortably dressed person here." I thought that was funny, but I was also kinda surprised, because I'd always figured saris were comfortable.

Lakshmi Shankar performed during the festival.

And somewhere the president* is cutting the ribbon at a new Papa John's.

H/t to Charles Pierce, @UM?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:33am coelacanth∅:

haha!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:33am Uncle Michael:

Did Charles make the same joke? I just now came up with it all by my ownself.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:34am coelacanth∅:

(* = not MY president )
  11:35am Dean:

The asterisk part. He routinely refers to "the president*" and "the administration*". The ribbon cutting is all yours, but certainly in a Piercian vein.

Uncle brings worthy chunks of chuckle today with Mary Kay and Papa John.

There was a tribute concert to Aretha Franklin in Detroit last night - on TV starting after midnight European time. Rather late, so I recorded the entire thing. Any one watching on the other side of the pond?

There's a pink Mary Kay Mercedes A-class that drives around my German place.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:40am coelacanth∅:

i have an album, but i don't recall which, that has an asterisk after each song title, with no reference to it anywhere. i thought it pretty funny, and obediently wasted a few minutes looking for an explanation.
