Greetings and Salutations!

Hi, DJ MikeLupica!

can't chat but listening

Hello. Wednesdork, checking in

My building is 100 years old. Resonant frequencies are as scary as they are wonderful. Loose the vibes!

I seal my windows with plastic sheeting and a hairdryer every winter. Does wonders for the resonant frequencies.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve, Mike.

Also, hello good people of the Wednesdork-o-sphere.

Mike Lupika's opening remarks [and ALL remarks actually] always remind me of George Shea's patter at Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on 4th of July -/// and that is a GOOOD thing!!!

Randy, I am *honored* by the association!

what what... when's the Mark Russell Karaoke hour start? hmm... Everybody do the deficit rag...

I’m holding out for some Capitol Steps hits

First Family too... the old lp version and the Bob Newhart later one on cable

I want to make business cards that just have my name on them and then underneath that: "Song and Dance Man"

Songs! Now with Dances too!

You are BOTH Master Carnival Barkers - a career choice that is much missed by people gifted with language

This Weird Nightmare song unexpectedly reminds me to share that the entire Electric Love Muffin discography went up on Bandcamp today.

@Mike, checking Amazon for said tech! Thanx!

I never talk farther than I can throw.

Jon, now that is a Thanksgiving miracle.

Sad news. Wilko Johnson died.

Aye. There'll be some Dr; Feelgood coming up.

wednesdork salute

Oh yeah... this is a Terry Reid song! Always forget that

Can we just heist the cool handsignal the good guys in Big Trouble in Little China used as our official salute?

Oh great, Thanksgiving fireworks outside.

"Can see things no one else can see. Do things no one else can do."

Big Trouble in Little China is well within the realm of Salutations. Wonderful Movie!

Wait? This was a cover? It's got all the Cheap Trick creeps that I never thought it wasn't theirs

Big trouble ... banzai sequel? Yes or no?

Former WPRB DJ (and my high school spirit animal) Mr. Mike Shmelzer says it is, so I says it is too.

👍

Was Shmelzer the one who played 'Die donnergötter' backwards with you?

Ahh, no. That would be Dr. Cosmo. Shmelzer was on-air ~1987

Ah, Okay. I am bad with names for a year or to ago. :)

No worries -- both are PRB hall-of-famers!

Respect!

oooo this is nice!

This is super-compelling.

Also it was released....today? That's service!

"I know a guy"

But yeah, thought this was super rad.

Good thing there's no webcam this week because I am the world's worst dancer.

Insider-trading! LOL

Dr Cosmo - NO relation to Suzi Cosmo

I think "Dancing with the World's worst Dancers" is a total pitch to a network at this point.

I would subscribe to yet another streaming service to watch that.

"Yet another" Nailed it!

Food Network has "Worlds Worst Cooks" so why not?

Serious question: Is RVNG Intl really pronounced "revenge international"? I've said both "Irving" and "RV-ing." Whoops.

I drove past a theater in Davis, CA with Cheap Trick on the Marquee. I thought that said it all.

@Jon, I heard Abbie, Ameena, and Peppa Pig say it that way, so I just copied off their homework.

Snow birds in southern Arazona might have issues about RV-ing Jon. lol

*Arizona* Sorry, doin' my phonics stuff.

yeah i say RV-ing.

sooogood

Babs Manning? Yep -- she rules.

@Patrick, The problem with Phonics is regional most of all. I sound cruel in Arkansas, but really I'm not worried, because if they can even read that they are the apex and welcome in my club.

fair.

Remember RVIVR? I thought it was pronounced rivvivver till somebody role me it was reviver

Green river college

SNATCH❣️

Oh hell yeah perfect song to tune in to!

There's a video of them doing this live that's great to watch.

@DSM, I am probably responsible for several hundred of that videos views on YouTube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoI7deS76Ck

My friend actually sent me pillows last year! Pillows don't kill people, btw. People kill...etc...

for anyone who hasn't watched it

It Never gets old Mike!

Never realized that their singer is a Hobbit. (Like DIO)

Is that McSweden on bass?!?

LOL

L0LZ

Hobbit? LOL High voice. Works for me.

dude from Driveshaft was a hobbit too

Feasting Starlight Pathogen lounge tonight!

Now that's what I'm Tolkien about, Patrick.

-ᎷяM, Shined shoes! Oh yea!

What are the changes to the schedule tomorrow?? DJ Esoterica is off. What other fill ins are happening?

HaHa! @DJ MikeLupica!

mrm, i'm gonna be fill-ins my belly with stuffing! lol and hello

MrM, tomorrow is fill-ins GALORE. McSweden in for Andi. Commie Francis in for Esoterica. Wax in for Lizbot. Dogs and cats, living together. MASS HYSTERIA.

Esoterica is off? Bummer. Plight of those of us in and out.

Cheers and Snorts, Colin! Gobble Gobble!

i got some cooking happening while commiw will be on. looking forward to that!

Wow! DJ MikeLupica! Thanks!

I live to serve.

All I have to make tomorrow is a pie, I am quite relieved.

i'll be watching the dogs and cats making sure they stay at odds. we can't have that level of hysteria.

Imma ask tomorrow about the schedule for Friday and then Friday about Saturday and on Saturday about Sunday and etcetera

I think I heard there was a Pup fill in at some point.

Pup has three shows coming up in December!

Little late, but: FRANKIE & TWF!!!

I'm getting predictable in my old age.

@C🦃lin, thanks, someone has to be the adult with things. Throwing turkey bones between them is a fine way to get them to play.

Hi Christine!

Hi Roffle! Greetings, Mike & Pit Crew!

I will say this year (as I have said at this time of November for several years running) that the best Thanksgiving meal I ever had was when my wife and I visited a friend in Hell's Kitchen and we ordered Indian takeout from Curry in a Hurry and got smashed on red wine.

That sounds like a hell of a Thanksgiving! Good evening everyone

My favourite Thanksgiving meal is an “Indian” feast! Get it pilgrims! Get smashed on the AlooGobi!

Dammit, I missed Chalice :(

mike, sounds fantastic. now i wish i am bring a curry to the family dinner... not too late tho🤔

Geez! I know Hell's Kitchen. Last place I want to be a few sheets out. An eazy walk elseware. It's been a while though.

Your just in time, @TAndy. One of your previously-issued #jamalert songs is up next.

*you're

All this food talking, setting me a Thanksgiving movie night, Ratatouille

Hell yah. I'm ready to wig out tonight

*prepares dancing shoes for said jam🚨warning

i've got a bag of sour skittles and some progresso jambalaya for my thanksgiving eve dinner tonight at work

one has not lived till the day they combined sour skittles and canny jambalaya in the same bowl.

I only go to these holiday shindigs because my cousen Ben makes me laugh. Yea, I would do in a bowl and have no regrets.

I may never eat nuthin ever again

I have a huge juice plump turkey with the stuffings and trimmings and cranbury sauce! I've even got wallpaper paste textured potatoes!

east siiiiddddeee gormetz!

"Of course they are!" Spot on!

Jamsterdam Alert! 📢🚨📢🚨📢🚨

MrM 💀, lol!

Lonesome Crow, 1st Scorpions album is worth checking out, much more hippie prog vibe

Australian geography skills are like a boomerang, they'll come back too you eventually🤣

Welcome to Jam Rock!

😂🤣😝 @COLIN!

🪃🤓

Hello Christine! 👻

Hey boo 👻

Hi Christine

What the heck, I literally had that Scorpions song on my stack for a future show

Hi Ossy!

We must have been stuck in similar rabbit holes

Let 2023 be the #wprbscorpionsrenaissance

Boo! All the warmest wishes to Boo 👻 at this time of year and always! 🦃🎄🎉🥂🍾

I remember a Sabbath renaissance a few years back

the bass player is all in on the filter bass!!

*Boo ghost mario laugh*

instead of a wah wah pedal its more of a whump whump pedal.

Nice

anutha jamma ⚠

PJ HARVEY 💟💟💟

we all float down here

Harvey Noticed. Love her!

🎈

Joe Frank Time!!!

Joe Frank! His shit is really, really hard to find!

It's hard to believe it's been a year since we all listened to this gem. This calls for some incense.

RIP Cousin George.

RIP Uncle Fred and Aunt Edna.

"A bilious sense of over-the-horizon nausea" is one of my favorite phrases of all time.

They won!Got there first!

RIP trouser button

🤢 he really does paint a explicit picture.

LOL MrM

L0LZ

and pointing

Haha and RIP zipper from new slacks 👖

Uncle Bob! Genius from Frank!!

wtf is happening

LAY DOWN NO TALKING

OH 😥🤭🤐

You guys won’t won’t believe how I stumbled across WPRB. I googled “ Brian Eno Joe Frank” led me to a playlist/chat of Dave the Obscure. Love Joe Frank and love this show. Thanks Mike.

Haha, that's awesome! Glad you found us, Gautham!

Fun timez!! Cheers, GauthamKalva!!

Gautham- That's how I came across WPRB in full like SOTC, which used to play on Rowan's radio station in the past. Also learned of few great songs, not heard on mainstream radio otherwise.

That was the conversation I always imagined having with William S. Burroughs while walking across the Brooklyn Bridge with him. Frank has some cool tuning keys. :)

Gotta bite the bullet and get the joefrank.com subscription one of these years

Thanks for sharing!

gonna go WOT up the bypass to this track

Whut? Final Six Mins?!? Outrageous! 😭

Thanks, Mike. It's an excellent Thanksgiving tradition. Have a good Thanksgiving, everybody!

Thanks, pitcrew! Great hang tonight. One more piece of critical thanksgiving audio coming up at 10:57!

Thanks Mike. Happy Thanksgiving time crew!

ChristineBoo! All the warmest wishes to Boo 👻 at this time of year and always! 🦃🎄🎉🥂🍾

Cheers to all the Dears, especially those with Big Tofurkey Ears! Gobble Gobble!

DJ MikeLupica! Very thankful for you and your very fine show! Big cheers and kind regards to you and your FamBam!

Happy Thanksgiving Mike! For the record also, one episode in Disney Recess, shares the history of Thanksgiving as well!

That I watched

@Gautham Kalva! You found it! Welcome to the ride!

William S. Burroughs ❤️‍🔥

Thanks for the show!

Peas out, y'all. Stay tuned for Pax!
