𓀤𓀥 high five. Welcome back, radio neighbor.

G.A.B. WPRB classic

Touch and Go baton hand off

high-five. Dave!!

hey, Brian!

what? gvsb reunion? gotta check that out!

Hey good morning Jen!

yes on GSVB! hey, DSM!

ahhhhhh, it's been weeks since i been able catch a live running redlights. I have listened to a couple episode via mixcloud tho

It's nice to be reunited, @Colin! Glad you found the archives, too....

Pumped for weekend music yeah!

PS GVSB is Oct 14 in Brooklyn...no Philly, it seems.

WOOOOOO!

you guys are hopped up for brunchtime ;)

Benedict bar is open

Hi Jen

Morning y'all!

finished that morning coffee about 20 minutes ago, i think it's kicking in. ☕

hi @gboss and @Dam!

DAN!

lol. Now it makes me want to request some Dam Funk. Or maybe I'll just have to play some on my show next week

ha! I call myself Jem all the time by accident

Wasn't there some cartoon band called Jem and the [somethings]

Jem and the Holograms?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jem_(TV_series)

Also, hello everyone.

hello, Mike! Jem and the Holograms

!!!

That's them! I don't think I ever watched that show. I was too young when it was first on and too much "ew girls" when it was on reruns wherever it was on reruns

I always thought it was something and Princess of Power hahhah

Good morning all. I don't know how much longer I'll be able to listen to this show, but I'm here for a while.

Weren't the princesses of power She-Ra?

@Rob, we're glad to have you!

This is not The Thing I Expected to Be Called Upon To Clarify this morning, but yes (Dan) that's She-Ra.

I will say I was kinda sad when my daughter didn't really take to the She-Ra recent remake

@Dan, pretty sure, and also I hadn't watched any of these. My brother and I thought He-Man was pretty cool, though.

hey if anyone out there is excited about this American Standard song, you'll probably be interested that NEXT WEEK I'll be interviewing their friends Verbal Assault on this here show.

An-GER! Batt-ERY!

YESSSSSS!

YEAH!

Oh! That's right! New slot!

These pleasure f-ers are pretty fun!

Belatedly adding that the GVSB reunion show(s) I saw in 2016 were excellent.

that album art has me wanting a sausage of the grill

oh, loved that last Michael Beach album!

New slot, @Jon, thanks for being here! @DSM - NICE! He's new to me, and I loooove him!

Home from getting my bivalent booster. If you're in Central New Jersey you can basically choose your own shot slot at all the major pharmacies.

Best o' the Morning, Jen & Redlight-Runners! So fantastic to hear your show in its new time-slot! YAY! I dated the bass-player of American Standard for about a year, while I was still at NYU. It's so fabulous to hear an old Am-Stand song from around the time we were going out! I'm still in touch with Scott the bassist. I've got to let him know that you played 'It Comes Around' on your inaugural show of the fall season!!

SF to Australia, I believe

Teresa, I love that! I knew them by sight but was a huge fan while they were around and probably saw them a half dozen times. Please do let him know! And VA will be on next week!

Also -- Happiest Birthday to Mark! Hope his extra-special day is stupendous!

(I *think* they were friends.)

That's so nice! Will pass it on!!

Good job Jon!

I really want to know what font American Standard used for "Wonderland" on that album cover. It's the perfect mix of sharp and ridiculous

dan, album came out in 89, so my uneducated guess is they used the designed by hand font

Looks almost Ralph Steadman-ish

Also, those guys were starving artists and lowly college students back in the day. They probably couldn't afford a better logo.

Yeah, that seems plausible. But then the "n" and "d" glyphs look the same to my eye, so maybe it's not?

I want to believe it's from one of those old scratch-on font type things that existed back then in the pre-digital design world

i took lessons from trudy pitts in the early 90's for a bit

!!!!

a fantastic person. thanks for playing her tune

I'd love to hear more of her music!

Rewind: Jem cartoon featured Bucks County native and bassist for Luna Britta Philips as Jem's singing voice

I like to nickname those reunion tours as the, oh crap how much is my kid's college tuition gonna be? tour.

Jen - your show this summer made my 2hr Fri drive on rt 206...well, as enjoyable as a drive on 206 can be. Thx!

bri, fun fact!

Britta was in that Satisfaction film too... heh. And some Adult Swim animated shows voice acting

I think the font they used is American Standard. Hee hee

Hahahahaa

@Lee I’m so glad to hear it! Thanks for being here!!

@Colin agreed on the reunion tours, but some of them are just so darn GOOD

Sunburned!

This is totally groovy brunch music, no?

I was reminded that this Astute Palate record also has a song called No Queen on it but...

Sunburned is one I'm surprised is still going in 2022! Not complaining!

Seriously. Also forgot how much I enjoyed this Astute Palate album. This is a great set

Hell yeah haven’t listened to this Astute Palate in a minute. Love it. This is a killer record

Great set Jen

I had occasion to interview Jon Maloney earlier this year, and it sounds like Sunburned aren't going anywhere (and they have like 10 bazillion hours of music recorded)

Whoa an echo in here

It’s a terrific record! Thanks, @fr1day! Glad to see you!

@Dan wow!!

Would love to hear that

that's good to hear, Dan

I guess they record like every practice session and concert they've ever had (since it's all improvised). They're slowly releasing highlights on their Bandcamp

Shameless plug for my Astute Palate story from a couple years ago.

https://xpn.org/2020/12/18/astute-palate-david-nance/

Definitely groovy

@Dan WONDERFUL!

ooooh great article!! I'll read after the show!

This Blood Wizard keeps changing like I wouldn’t expect

Maybe that's why i am so into it? Love this song.

Now junior. Behoove yourself

ha!

Got today’s run in, was most certainly not expecting a Tre Orsi / Lemonheads two-fer as I trotted!

I intuited that you needed a boost!

Hi Jen! Haven't had many chances to catch your show since mine was on right after yours, but I've been listening since Kids On A Crime Spree driving over to mount Laurel today. Really enjoyed it! Thank you for all the music!

Proud Scum got

me over the top!

Proud Scum Got. Or Randy Scouse Git. You decide....

excellent, Jon! And @Casey , so glad you are here! Thanks for chiming in!

Blood Wizard album title win win "Western Spaghetti"

hahahhah yes!

Those tunes are great, hope they pissed off my upstairs neighbor.

Thanks for the tunes, Jen!

Ha, hi, neighbor! 👋

Thank you, Rob!

redlights ran, thanks!

And don’t forget - Verbal Assault on next week!

@Daniel, I also hope that they pissed off your upstairs neighbor

Great show, Jen.

Love to hear Karate!

Thanks so much, Jon!

Great show Jen!
