Thursday! Thursday! THURSDAY!

From the Truck Stop to the Pup Stop, really enjoyed Krista's 18-wheeler themed show leading up to our show :)

Hello. Nice start here

Mornin Brian! Greet the day with some warm vibrations

Instant wishlist addition

"The Wishlist Radio Hour" with DJ Pup

The build-ups on this Godcaster track are like musical cold brew hitting the brain, good wake-up fuel

Wow that non-"and we're back" mic break beginning really caught me off guard

Gotta keep listeners on their toes

I am now alert

Time for a brain scramble

Ambient jazzy sounds in the morning

Mornin Ossy! And Michael too :)

Ambient and jazzy is like balancing the sweet and the bitter, like having a muffin or donut with a coffee

But I guess a ton of sugar isn't exactly... ambient

For the people who don't drink coffee in the morning, do you drink tea? Water? GATORADE??

Liquid jazz

And pancakes on top of that, with peanut butter and jelly

Jazzorade

pb&j pancakes! Wowza, yeah

A neighbor of mine growing up put m&ms into the pancakes, that was on another level of sugar-rush for a kid

"good morning, time to burnout your day's energy PRONTO"

Melt in your mouth, not in your 'cakes

🤣

It's true! they managed to keep their shape in the pancakes

One day they tried pickle-chip pancakes - a bridge too far

Some friend tried putting gummies in pancakes and cookies, and became a rainbow LOOOL

That's one way to taste the rainbow

Skittles have to take some notes

Pickle chip pancakes, what a smelly breakfast to have,LMAO

Hmm yeah that is not what I want with my jazz coffee

That, and they had a phase of microwaving pickles. I love pickles, but tread that road at your own risk

If you microwave one for too long they dehydrate to the point of being a crispy french fry

Pickle fries, the alternative to pickle chips

Pickles - the sour potatoes

Gosh, it's before noon and I'm having to google pickled potatoes

Yeah, the gummies melted as he was baking cookies, a lava of gummies

Now I'm finding recipes for smoked pickled potatoes, maaaaan

How have I never connected those two threads.... potatoes and pickling

My Irish and Jewish heritage meeting in the middle

The pickled potato, for the win

Did you say Pickle Potato ?!?! Well Neillllllllll HAMBURGER delivers... https://youtu.be/tSBDmv-PIyo

Neil Hamburger delivers indeed

Picked potato, sounds tasty and dip with nacho cheese

He's the On Cinema guy right? With Heidecker?

".. Joe Joe drinkin' Joe... remember that ol' song as a kid? 'I'm Joe the Drinkin'... Boy' "

Oh man this track really does make you feel light on your feet

Like running with the hover boots in Ocarina of Time

Neil is the Anti-Comedian. I was at Princeton Record Exchange about 30 years ago and saw that cassette "Great Phone Calls" near the register... clerk said it was a must have... still cracks me up

I'm pretty sure he did a show at Johnny Brenda's not too long ago, wish I went

that Neil vid you shared reminds me of the Longmont Potion Castle albums

Or using the Deku Leaf in Wind Waker

I first time saw some of Skyward Sword, may try that after finishing Twilight Princess

Yea Neil (aka real name Greg Turkington) does the On Cinema w Tim Heidecker of Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job fame

I never beat Wind Waker, one of those classics that I got close to the end but never finished.... Banjo Kazooie was another unfortunately... (I think I had like 3 puzzle pieces left to find before fighting Gruntilda... sigh)

and Final Fantasy X... I got stuck on "High Road - South" as a kid and never retried

Neil and Longmont do have a certain overlap yes ! Neil Hamburger, Longmont Potion Castle, Tim and Eric... all big big fave comedy desert island picks for me!

The last twilight mirror shard Currently in that civilization in the sky in Twilight Princess and Wind Waker, haven't finished it yet, stuck in the Wind Temple as well the final battle of Gruntilda

This set is very much in the Deirdre D Lights are on.. vein!

Longmont's "Triple double flip" still pops into my head at random intervals

Haven't played Final Fantasy, but know some of the characters like the alluring and tough, Tifa Lockhart and one wing scary Sephiroth

Sephiroth both slays in fashion and in battle, a villainous icon

TRIPLE DOUBLE FLIP! Longmont and his list of fake names for the calls... Fricky Weaver. Fennel Cartwright. Flip Whitman. Gideon Jago. Grandpa Fiddlebone. Dugan Nash. Orville Sash. Manny Wagstaff. Pumpernickel Bracket. Virtual Balboa. (Admiral) Whip Babbitt.... too many more...

DUGAN NASH, ORVILLE SASH

Incredible

Yucatan Succaman

Kiplet Christian.

Like the Nick Hollow here. Somewhere between Connan Mockasin and Gary Wilson

Yeah I thought it was an interesting release, always love to discover what's happening overseas with regards to the slick indie adjacent pop

A little Mac DeMarco Weenish too...

Ahhh the beauty of cel animation

I would love to own an original animation cel of Future Trunks

The only animation cels my wife and I own are from the 1977 movie Wizards and from an episode of the 1995 anime Golden Boy

Same, the lovely old school animation, to proceed the future. Funny he was killed again in GT, LOOOOL. At least, he was killed in clothes, LOOOOL

Nice, Disney also has wondrous 2d animation

That video explaining how they would shoot depth of field with layers of painted glass plates was mind blowing when I saw that

Also throwing some music industry news in here this morning - workers at Bandcamp announced a union! Bandcamp United

Solidarity with the fine folks who help make shows like this possible

Hey DJ Pup - I like the sax here

Cole Pulice on sax! Glad you're enjoying Rob, thanks for tuning in :)

Just checked Longmont Potion Castle site and LPC 20 was just released in January! I'm behind....

Nice! I haven't checked in with LPC for a bit myself

absolutely beautiful sounds there!! Wassup Pup and chat good morning

Mornin Guelo! Thank you :)

Love this one right outta the gate!

This one was recently reissued on 7", killer track!

Low low sax

https://felakuti.bandcamp.com/album/shakara-50th-anniversary

No party like a Fela Kuti party

Wish I could've had the chance to see him perform in person, sigh

Shakarah from homeland motherland legend, Fela 🤍⚪💚🤍💚🟢⚪🟢

The planet will explode if Bob Marley and Fela Kuti did a song together!!!

Fela had some play years back and Patti Labelle was in it. Also, Beyonce did tribute to him on some concert of his Zombie song

woah didn't know that! The more you know ✨

See ya 5

Indeed! See you there ;)

Thanks to everyone for tuning in this morning as well
