The Freeform Pathogen Wed Jan 11 with Mike Lupica on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Hello, DJ MikeLupica! Big cheers to YOU!

MIS! TER! MAL! CON! TENT!

Quick, before anyone else gets here, what's your real name? You can delete it right away.

Great, thank!

MikeLupica

Is me

👀

Wonder Twins ACTIVATE! 🧟🧟‍♂️

The Barge >:)

Can the Barge have an actual listener lounge for me to eat a Hoagie Haven hoagie at?

Evening all. I don't remember the Wonder Twins. Were they part of TV Funnies?

Are ptarmigans welcome at the Barge?

Wait, does that make me Gleek?

ShadowFax on the playlist? lol

Blair Witch Project took place in Maryland...

EngineerScott 🏆 ScottSon 🎖

🪄🦠

Eat not my brain, Have a lovely zombie day.

Scott Ian's answer for fixing everything is "have you tried doing what you're already doing but with a slightly longer goatee?"

Pedestrian record collection? I doubt that, my friend.

Marcus, as they say on the internet, HOLD MY BEER.

In fairness, Scott Ian does seem like an incredibly wholesome and likeable dude.

If you don't eject the warp core, she'ss ginna blow!

Mike, I feel like Scotty would quit Starfleet if he had to keep WPRB running.

WPRB and FAA go down within 24 hours... something strange is afoot at the Circle K

Someone forgot to take transmitter/tower/shack to the DMV for annual inspection.

The answers are found... at the bottom of a 36 oz cup of decaf.

why would one drink 36 oz of decaf tho?

@DSM, big time Sanka fan here.

Turkish coffee powered us in the '94 Mummers.

100th anniversary of Sanka this year, coincidentally

I need to try some Sanka. I do love Pero

And I need to order it online! No stores carry it anymore!

Some people say that coffee and speed got them through college. In my case, it was diner Sanka. (Note that I took 237 years to finish college.)

I've been forced to the online for my Marmite needs

You are almost as old as MrM!

🧛🏻‍♂️

Keep yr marmite urges private...eww.

Every now and then I have to relearn that Decaf doesn't mean no caff, and that it can still keep you awake

I did not know that Not-Pup

I was gonna nod off, but fuck me, this is top shelf.

lol Jimboo

Same with tea, I usually avoid anything but water a couple of hours before bed

For those who didn't see my comment in Jon Solomon's chat, guitarist Jeff Beck has passed away

Indeed, I'll forget it soon and have to relearn once more

I didn't start drinking coffee until the 2000s, not sure how I stayed awake in college before then. RC Cola?

As I drink a glass bottle Coca Cola at 8pm

And then eat the glass.

Crap-Ola. RIP Jeff.

Not a Jeff Beck fan, but condolences to his fam and fans.

I only add crushed glass from my refrigerator, gotta keep it ice cold

I started drinking instant coffee asca teenage farm laborer then switched to mountain dewwwww until I discovered REAL coffeee

gamer coffee is Bawls Guarana or Club-Mate

Bawls - the choice drink of early 2000's LAN parties

Gevalia for all night support rotations in the early 2000's/

Can't play Quake unless you're quaking from caffiene

I've never had Bawls. How's it taste?

Like ginger ale mixed with cream soda, was how my brain spoke the tale to me

X RAY SPEX❣️

I saw a very small sci-fi movie in 2020 that used this song as an important plot device.

Fast Color. Should still be streaming...somewhere.

I *SWEAR* the next two songs were picked out for tonight's show before I heard about Jeff Beck.

This puddle/zombie playlist is top notch

^

Laura Logic on sax here...with a new Essential Logic record out!

DIED!

I just watched the Poly Styrene documentary four days ago.

Was good? I still need to see it.

🫡🏀📕☠️(salute, basketball, diaries, DEAD)

That record done wore out

I'm in detention now. Or dentition

💀 Killed By Death

I wish I had a recording of the proto-single version of this song WPRB had on a cart with different lyrics (I might have invented this).

This Detention song is something else! I think I heard this once many years ago

Wonder what Barry Manilow thought of this

MUDHONEY 💗

Oh yay we get the whole song!

Bigmuff forever.

“a cart” 📼‼️

Sub Pop Records❣️ Let’s GOooo0ooOoo!

Starlite Lounge rafters be dropping asbestos down on me right now.

Yeaaaa! Boyyeee!!

Oh yeah!

Manville NJ used to be quite the asbestos producer

Anopheles is a GREAT name for a record label

🦟

Obnoxious records are my favorites

this facsimile show is super awesome

Beck was 78

What? News to me. Ugh.

Yep. Today.

Palmyra Delran is great.

Aww, Horace

MemoryFumes 🤪

Running on spirits of vapors of fumes

DURAN DURAN ❤️‍🔥

JANELLE MONÁE ❤️‍🔥

Who totally rules, but most recently rules in Glass Onion, right?

I’m not familiar. No Spoilers.

ESG❣️

DJ Dan Buskirk is hosting two free obscure '70's film musicals tomorrow at 40th St. in West Philly. Check The Rotunda for details.

Pure MOODY 💞

I’m busy that day

DJ DanBuskirk❣️ tho yo!

Feels like this one should go out to Pethie!!!!

At night, Mr. M.

Wait, has Pethie claimed exclusive rights to ESG? I DEMAND A RECOUNT!

the Pethie vibe

I’m busy that night 🙃

Hell yeah!!

Jazzmatazzyyyyyyyyy

Suggestions welcome for live music, art events or related cool happenings this sat or sun outside Philly - Burlington, Princeton, New Hope, etc?

This HS release is a top contender in my 2022 book :)

Lee, I will be standing on a street corner in Princeton on Saturday afternoon and will read some of my poetry out loud. I expect the cops to come within 2.4 seconds.

gbh??

HackySack on front lawn. Go back inside and take nap.

oops crass

scuttlebutt is Princeton's finest find poetry to me eloquent and graceful.

@Francis, totally reasonable mistake. Definitely not the Exploited.

Mike that really would be a show. Thx!

Either GBH or exploited hadone of their songs that almost had a similar intro - just bugging me which one

You'd think I'd remember if it were GBH, as I almost had my haed kicked in at the basement of the RItz at a GBH/Cro-mags show

biotch better have mah money 💰

Some things are meant to be left in the basement of the Ritz.

NEU!❗️

This Neu! song reminds me of "Virginia Plain" by Roxy Music

So far, I keep going back to the 'Today and Tomorrow' release when listening to 2022's Sault releases.

@Richard, I still haven't parsed through them enough to think of them as individual statements. All real good, but alas, the perils of dropping five albums all on the same day!

the fumes the fumes going up my nose

PJ HARVEY 💜💟💜 reverb❣️

this is Outstanding 🖤💀

O K A Y

BATH BOYYYYYY

It’s ALL HAPPENING

I AM BATH BOY

Is this real life?!?

I’m your BATHBOY. So filthy.

Couple of suds and a boy in the bath 🔥🔥🔥

All rise for the WPRB Anthem

🛀🏻

DJ SelectaJerry lit candles for bath time!

This is definitely either WPRB's new Sex Bomb (Flipper) or Teen Love (No Trend).

Add it to the list!

🕯️🛀🏻🕯️

Christine is missing this :'(

HeyOoo!

WTF

SIlence and static

Scott!!!

Mike, are you going to have to go out in the woods again?

Buffering

The signal is getting bathed

Ahhhhhhhrghhhhh

MikeLupica went torlet

Still cutting in and out but mostly stable

I’m unstable

Hmmm. Working on it.

It's working fine for men ow

I'm keeping that typo.

How dare technology interfere with bath boy

Did you hear interruptions on FM or the streams?

L0LZ

Mr MC - yes we know you're unstable..

Fm

This guy rn af

Funky Drummer?

Mike, I agree with the Flipper and No Trend comparisons. This song is both!!

Streaming is fine

streaming is good all the way out to Sonoma CA

Never glitch music

No drummer sounded like computer stutter

I came here to thank you for playing this 💎

Oh right, when my connection drops it's not funky drummer, it plays the viking metal version of Here Come the Warm Jets by Eno.

Interruptions in the streams, here in Maryland

You are most welcome, h1ro-Protagonist!

L0LZ

No funky drummer

🫡

Windows needs to update already so I can see 🫡 as 🫡 and not as 🫡

@TAndy, this is absolutely the WPRB anthem

Luke warm and filthy mr m just the way you like it

No Eno metal version here, Mike

Hiro protagonist...from Snowcrash? It's been a while since I read that

Indeed Francis!

Awww Hellz Yeeaahh @DJ SelectaJerry!

🔥😂🔥😂

@Mike, what's the stats on how many times this song has played on WPRB?

😱🤪🥸😎

flyers win just as bath boy starts, sqeeeeee!!!

@h1ro-Protagonist, fewer than you'd think. I think it's less than 15.

THIS 💚

Oh wow! Welp, I've been lucky enough to catch 25% of the plays 🫠

im the silly wizard

tandy, we didn't know, but at the same time we knew.

You're just lucky I didn't play Silly WIzard's "Ramblin' Rover". When I do, I often demand an on-air singalong.

i enjoyed the silly wizard, gonna have too peep that one

LOVE CRACKLES

This may be the most "mainstream" song on the show tonight

Presence on vinyl 🔥🔥🔥

@TAndy HOLD MY BEER

🔥💥

uh oh

First album I ever bought

Zeppelin's most underrated track imho.

The record with my fave Zep song on it. (Not this one.) CAN U GUESS?

When the Levee Breaks?

Tea for one

tangerine

Nope. It's on Presence.

Tea for one

oh...pffft

NOPE!

candy store rock

NOPE!

Hots on for nowhere

Ding ding ding!

Someone answer the door, I'm busy listening to Achilles Last Stand

Plant had a broken leg while recording this album

Almost a sister track to "Day of the Eagle"

Mike, I can't believe this. I always tell people they'll bever guess my favorite Zepelin song. even after I tell them it's on perhaps their most maligned album.

Great Bonham and page volley

Jerry, as I believe it has been noted elsewhere, that thing in his pants on the poster wasn't his leg.

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Mike, more maligned than Coda?!?

Selecta was his broken leg due to his Achilles’ last stand?

Haha

I didn't even think that counted, which I guess is even worse.

Or says what I think of it.

Whoa...this hath burnt my barn.

Worst Zeppelin songs: Tossup between D'yer Mak'r and The Crunge. (Both on the same album.)

Jimbo, I've seen that barn. It was a mercy burning.

Hmm, gotta think.

Jerkmayka is up there.

LOOOOL

A cruel prank would be to loop this and play it for several hours.

Think it was those swan song pressings

Didn't they do something like that to Noriega to get him to leave Panama?

Four bananas, three bananas two bananas one

You singing a dickies song backwards?

Bath boy and Achilles last stand in the same set who would ever guess

Banana Splits

yep

You know, it probably was the first Zepelin song I ever heard as a pre-teen, but I'd be cool if I'd never hear it again. I daren't say its name.

You washed it with soap and water???!!!

I don't mind the cackling crackles

"In case our coffee is too hot"

YAY! Soooogoood!

Imaginary theme for this show....first time caller requests of the past.

That arcadic nes dos game sound

DIsco Budgie https://youtu.be/jXc9ylCXqCw

Sorry

ehehehehe

LOL

jam alert 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

HAILU

The coolest!

cooler than this bird beatboxing?

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/B1M3KvYpBUA

That could have been Schoolhouse Rock - A Visit to the Counselor's Offuce.

Wow. DJ ZombieLupica KNOWS

Good on ya, Sir!

🤍🖤🤍

The bird's got rhythm Francis.

ÉDITH PIAF 💝

dang

N'est-ce pas?

Du frommage tout le temps

ZUT ALORS!

Quel dommage pourr le fromage.

Did anyone take French using "French in Action"?

🟣🟡🟢🔴🔵

I envision the hippies in Billy Jack sitting in a circle, singing this, right before the townies start harassing them, ans out runs Billy Jack with a can of whup ass.

#teamTheHippies

WestSiiidddeee!

no - just 3 years prep school French - easily my worst subject

YASSSSSSS!

French in Action was sort of an immersive, video based course developed at Yale. In three semesters, the teacher only ever said one word in English, when I asked him if it was true if the lead actress in it had ever done porno. He said "yes". Wasn't really pornography though, it was in the movie "Aria" where she danced naked.

Francis, you would have hated this French course.

DJ MikeLupica, many thanks for another Grand Show! Appreciate all your fine efforts at fixing issues this week and beyond! Big cheers to you and the WPRB Team! Kind regards to you!

Thanks for hanging out, everyone! AND NOW, I SLEEP.

Well, soon.

In like 11 minutes

Yes, I second your sentiments Mr. M. Mike is our Angel of Aural Salvation. I had been dreading missing a new all day Wednesday listening marathon

THanks for the selections - great show

Thank you for the show and your hard work last night, Mike! Have a good rest.

Throw mi corn riddim

I was gonna go to class, then I got high.

✌🏼

❤️🤍🖤❤️

Night all! Thanks for tolerating my silliness the last hour.

HackySack!
