Salutations and Greetings!

Hi, DJ Pat!

MERRY PATMAS

Hello, DJ CommieFrancis!

hello!!!!

just getting our sounds assembled

Izzair anybuddee they-ah?

is there anybody OUT THERE

don’t turn around, ooh uh oh... (zwei, drei) Der Kommissar’s in town ooh uh ~~ ohhhh, Tainted Love... ooh oh ooh woah, Tainted Love!

what a ripper from WIlbo and Jon!

Foley sounds with bags o bramble = great radio

Bitte baby bitte

thanks to Andrew G for last minute donation btw! 2:57!

Clamouring for the Comming Peppermint Patty

I keep hearing “Stimulus Lizbot”

I'm an oscillator, they're an oscillator, wouldn't you like to be an oscillator too?

Itty bitty baby boat

stimulus = your pledge response = WPRB

Oscillate wildly. call me Oscillator Wilde

Stimulus package: pledge for punk racket

"THAT FLAVOR MAKES ME OSCILLATE! " - EDO

Activate Agent Kruger

@Brian D - gather some stickmen for that smoky duraflame dog flavor

@commie i tried to get it done sooner but those damn traffic lights slowed me down!

ahem

omg i just noticed gary's got a donor a+

Oooo this is great

Cumbia mania

Highly recommend this whole thing. Great release

agree!

Love cumbia! In my Central American travels I encounter some cumbia, but mostly everyone’s listening to reggaeton

Cumbia 💙

my #1 funnest live dj experience was djing a ton of reggaeton for a wedding

Reggaeton 💀

Yah Mon! Me? What?

@Commie - I turn down most weddings, but I’ve done a few and one was a Paraguayan couple who had me play a buncha reggaeton

In Mexico in March, in addition to hearing loads of reggaeton, for some reason I kept hearing Pink Floyd’s The Wall everywhere- stores, cabs, etc - and then encountered a dude on a bus wearing a The Wall shirt. Not sure why that’s having a moment there right now

interesting!

LOVE this Roland Kirk song

somewhere i have a photo i took in 1994 in st petersburg russia of graffiti that said "pinc floid / punc"

it's a rager!

and a little james bond-y

@Lizbot for some reason Pink Floyd has a huge following around that album in Central America. My dad is Guatemalan and he loves that era of Floyd

in the key of w

@commie - haha, that’s an improvement on the original spelling!

@TAndy - Good to know! Yeah, evidently VERY popular still. I was in Costa Rica in 2019 and I didn’t encounter it much there but damn, Floyd was everywhere in Mexico

Whew this is seriously in the key of w

LatAm will attach to things they enjoy very heavily. Another example for Mexico is the dragon Ball series, to such a point that the last episode of the series so far was being hyped up and broadcast illegally at stadiums as if it were an actual sporting event

@TAndy / Commie - Someone made a corny joke at one of the Mayan pyramids referencing “another brick in the wall” at the beginning of the trip. Little did I know they were on to something

the mayans were super floidheads

Loving this

I cannot believe it’s CAN❣️

@Commie - So “Run” was about Pok-A-Tok.

i love this can record. also has yoo doo rite on it!

er right

I asked my dad what he thought of the Syd Barrett era and he said he wasn't really a fan of how heavy and psychedelic it was lol

The Scissor Girls seem to be having a bit of a WPRB renaissance in recent weeks!

“the mayans were super floidheads” 😃😆🤣

who else has been playing scissor girls?

i remember this one month or so when i heard magnet corn riggs and barley riggs like 8 times

I think I've heard them on 4-5 shows in recent weeks. Which is not a complaint!

it is funny how things have little waves. sometimes it's because we hear each other but definitely not always!

Running Redlights, White Flower Radio, Clamour Club...swear there was one more. Fine company!

@Commie - I am guilty of playing corn riggs and barley riggs last year on ++good after showing Hattie Wickerman and getting that song thoroughly lodged in my brain

Speaking of DJs copying each other, I suspect I'll be playing something from this Cate Le Bon before too long

I cannot believe it’s Saturday night

@TAndy / Commie - You say you lost at pok-a-lok? They’re gonna send you back to mother in a cardboard box!

you get ringworm

could be worse

could have... something else

That's "Hypnotic Cheese" guy? No?

yeah that guy

I’m typing about the DJ! Ringworm for everyone!

The pin is named "IT BURNS!".

DJ ChatGPT: ACE OF BASE “The Sign”

we feel the sound in our hearts pledge.wprb.com

i asked chat gpt to come up with show themes for me and it was totally flummoxed

😂 MrMalcontent - ringworm for all!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdKzRTju4yk

DJ LizBot I think we should add “DJ” to our slogans 🤔

Looking forward to checking that out, DJ Patmas! Cheers! @3am?!!

yeah once autoplayer comes on you can play it

thanks Jesse for your contribution! If you can see this!

Mark E Smith is House proud town mouse Ha-ha, charade you are

I can has reprise of a cry 😭

don't worry you will

I love The Quick. They have an early Sparks sound

yeah big time!

Jon Solomon had some fun "hey, chat gpt create a playlist for wprb" attempts a few months back in chat and he posted the results. The more specific info about wprb he gave it, the more interesting it was... some results were prettay close to a prb-ish experience but not quite

The key I found was to tell it to only include songs that were *not* on Spotify.

Can't remember whose show that chat was from...

However, the attempts to create a playlist in the style of the Xmas marathon were (thankfully) a huge failure!

Yes Jon! That was it!

DJ Son giggles!

omg pat just keeps wanting to get to that one song

The Quick and the Brothers Mael lived in LA at the same time and Danny Wilde from The Quick was reportedly a Sparks fan back then

Oh, THE QUICK - ha!

He oscillated Wildely

Found it thanks to that clue Jon. Scroll to 4pm to 5pm hour of Jen Redlights chat here: https://playlists.wprb.com/WPRB/pl/17018782/Running-Redlights?layout=1

RAYMOND SCOTT 💚 took that long to remember his name. Ugh.

@MrMalcontent - Mr Powerhouse himself! So much of his music I associate with Looney Tunes

Yeesh, I remember the sports takeovers

The pre recorded fireworks thing last year was hilarious 🤣

Hi everybody. I’m going to break the 4th wall and real quick and say hi and thanks to Commie and all the donors. You all rule! Now I have to go through customs!!!

hell yeah welcome back to earth pat!

Did you say cheese? Cheese marvelous cheese?

trees!

ErrMahGawd there’s two and talking to each of themselves!?! 🙃🤡👻

pats pats pats pats pats

Gain a thousand pounds and feel good about it- Adopt a manatee for you or someone you love and receive an adoption certificate!

manatee psa is a classic!!!!

Ya i know but I can dream

Oooooo... it's that time...

PewPewPew

LETS DROOOOOOONE

P-YOW. P-YOW!

@Brian D - you’re rewriting Food Glorious Food from Youre a Good Man, Charlie Brown for an all-rat cast? Cheese, Marvelous, Cheese 🧀

🚨🚨🚨

📢📢📢 theDroneZone™️ 📢📢📢

Welcome! To another edition of ThunderDrone!!

Jokes aside I already like this

🤣🤣🤣 Last three messages from DJ LizBot! 😂😂😂

medicine singers is one of my favorite wprb new emph discoveries of the last... year?

Okay, now, I’m cry

@Commie - I adopted two manatees for George - Vector, cuz he’s [marginally] faster than the other manatees, and Deep Dent, named so for the deep outboard boat engine inflicted scar on his back. They are my drifting brackish loaf children

This sounds like something I would expect to hear on Jon's show when everyone starts talking about what's for dinner

Drone rock space rock post rock whatever it is I have a massive appreciation for it

One of the Medicine Singers lives in Princeton now.

@TAndy - 🥙🥙🥙

whoah really??

Beets! It’s what’s for vegan dinner!

We should get this band in the studio ASAP

seriously, pile em in the barge

(TAndy wants every band he likes in the studio)

WOO

One of the first apps I downloaded for my phone was a soundboard that does nothing but play a cappella Runnin' With The Devil snippets.

I can’t get enough DLR isolated vocal tracks, even backwards

backwards tho?

especially backwards!

Nice manipulation, DJ Pat!!

Dis guys speaking my kinda language

Now it gets all meditative. Think of Diamond Dave and touch things while you dance.

Drifting Brackish Loaf Children, opening up for Manatee tonight!

@Brian D - 😆 🌊 🍞

Dugongs converged in a yellow wood - George

To me this is all just one giant track and I'm all for it

i'll tell you a secret i'm doing the playlist because pat is traveling and i definitely had to make some executive decisions about when songs started and ended

Please play this one out at its fullest, this is probably my favorite one

I no longer understand who is CommiePatmas?!? L0LZ seriously 😒

CT represent right here

it's a me commie francis

You Du Gong by the all-manatee Can cover band: “I was the left gong. You were the right gong for me.”

all manatee can cover gamelan

Merry Patmas, MrM

Oh HeyZeus Crispo I’ve been talking to Pat all the day 😝🤓🤪🥺

i explained but it was during wilbo's show

Manatee up the cover Gong with solely gamelan

Sorry, DJ CommieFrancis! I thought it was weird YOU weren’t in here. Ugh.

Cheese!

Oh my Lord

Birds will come here.. peas grow there...

cheese brings the soft touch of nature to our busy lives

Haha, I thought it was DJ Pat being sarcastic. “oops it's me commie francis logged in as pat”

The touch, the feel of cheese. The protein of our lives.

cheeses are the very best C H E E S E S

Can confirm, old school peeps in south Philly hate trees on their street. That the ink they’re “dirty”

i knew someone whose neighbor called l&i on them for having flowers in their yard and said they were making vines grow in her gutters

The only thing that I don't like about trees is the pollen and sap that falls on my car. Otherwise I would much rather have tastefully laid out trees than a barren landscape of concrete and road

Sweet Dreams are made of cheese…

THE MONKEES 🐵🙊🤎🙈🙉

this is a song that someone pulled over to call me and ask what i was playing (they knew it was the monkees but no tthe song). in massachusetts tho

Massawhatsetts?!?

actually i think i played it on my BIRTHDAY SHOW which is coming up nexy sunday! when i just play my favorite songs

i was really shattered to have to choose between bikini kill and micky dolenz headquarters tour a couple of weeks ago :(

Happy Birthday, DJ CommieFrancis! The Party starts NOW! 🎉🎂🎊💃🏽🕺🪅👯‍♂️👯‍♀️🎊🎁🎉

my actual birthday is TOMORROW so party it up!!!

HBD, Commie! 🎉 🐕

thanks Liz!

What are your birthday desserts?!? I honestly luv to eat cake.

this year my mom made me chocolate chip cookies but i usually seem to end up with raspberry chocolate cake

i'm not sure what will happen tomorrow

@Jarret - Might explain why, when I lived on 13th & Ellsworth, my basement (and everyone else’s on the block) flooded every time there was moderate rainfall - No TREE roots to sop up that water!

Hi @pat and @commie where can I hear the trees psa again. The voice is by Charles lastname please? Thanks for the great show

eddie albert, lloyd bridges and charlton heston

@Commie - WHICH did you chose??? I ran into a lotta ppl at Bikini Kill, but I don’t remember if you went…wait, did I see you and just don’t remember?

you did see me!! i had those tickets for 3 years

it was pretty brief but we spoke

Same! Bought in 2019! Rescheduled too many times to count!

i ordered a 2020 tour tshirt from their website when they finally gave up and got new ones i guess

Oh yeah, you were with a friend or yr sister or someone! That night was a blur of running into peeps I hadn’t seen in ages!

yes my friend/quasi sister. she knew someone you were with

Thank you for the show Patmas!

I went upstairs and danced on the balcony with a little too much hard seltzer after a while downstairs. I expect to see a buncha the same ppl at Le Tigre next month

thanks for listening and thanks to our amazing donors! which includes pretty much alla you here in the chat i'm pretty sure

i'd like to go to le tigre but i slept on getting tickets!

@commie - If she knew Carey or Sharon it was probably Sharon, who knows everyone. She is queen of the north Philly FNB. Used to run it outta our punk house, Cobra, starting 23…24? years ago

Clammie Patmas |:^)

Mmmm, milk. with Kahlúa 🍹

Same ppl I went with to see Kathleen Hanna in BK, Julie Ruin and Le Tigre form when we were youthsss

Fun show today! Thanks Pat & Commie!

Thanks, DJ Pat! Thanks, DJ CommieFrancis! Great selections! Fun mic breaks! Big cheers and kind regards to each of youse!

@Commie - I went upstairs and danced on the balcony with a little too much hard seltzer. Le Tigre will be even dancier. I wish I had a buncha extra tickets for that one cuz a lot of friends are looking for tix

Cheers Dears!

cheers mrm!

stay tuned for classy murmur!

and dj hog!
