Habitat Enrichment

Jun 1, 2023 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Music

With Krista

Habitat Enrichment is the concept of introducing novelty to an animal's enclosure to keep it from getting bored or sad. Let me play you something fun. Genres span world and time, just like a cat with a box to play in.

Some specialties you can usually hear a little on my show: Luk Thuong, deep soul, 60s crooners, cow punk,modern rnb, and synthwave. If you don't like the song currently playing, wait approximately 2 minutes for something else!

first day of summer...season

New time?! Is this the summer schedule?
Jarret Mitchell 10:05:44 AM
Good morning Krista!
TAndy 10:05:49 AM
Hey, Krista.
Krista (host) 10:05:55 AM
yes, this is the summer schedule. I'm now on from 10-12. Hi Jarret and TAndy!
TAndy 10:13:09 AM
Oh yeah. Happy pride month!
Colin 10:20:05 AM
I like this time slot! I've always been a fan of HI but I'm always listening as wake, get ready for work, drive to work. always enjoy the critter information section of the show
Amy Erma Lee 10:26:25 AM
This time slot works great for my schedule also!
TAndy 10:27:08 AM
It works for me unless I'm really tired after work!
Krista (host) 10:29:32 AM
I'm glad. I prefer the 7-10 am but that's the way it goes.
Richard from Rocky Hill 10:29:56 AM
@ Krista (host) A cute kitten story with a happy ending, followed by a cute, happy J-Pop song. It just doesn't get any better than this on a Thursday morning! :-))
Krista (host) 10:31:42 AM
thanks, Richard
TAndy 10:33:09 AM
Wonderful. I get to fall asleep late into your show, then I get to wake up at the tail end of ➕➕👍 in time for Powerclashing

I seen oyster catchers last summer in AC! The red bill
Danosaur 11:09:50 AM
Fight the mollusks!
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:10:28 AM
@ Readie Righteous Here's an idea for the next WPRB fundraiser: Get Krista to hold up a cute purring/meowing kitten to the mic -- but warn that the little critter will be locked out of her broadcast room if that hour's donation goal isn't met!
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:10:52 AM
I like oyster crackers in soup and salad. Wait. What are we talking about??
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:10:53 AM
@ Readie Righteous WPRB will be rollin' in cash!!! ;-))
Readie Righteous 11:11:48 AM
@Richard we do love kitties!
Danosaur 11:11:56 AM
Do you crack them open with your beak, MrM?
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:12:24 AM
I snickered very quietly
Colin 11:13:22 AM
wait a second, was that a mollusk I heard in there?
Ossy 11:14:30 AM
Hi Kris
Krista (host) 11:14:40 AM
bring forth the mollusk, Colin
Krista (host) 11:15:05 AM
also, lucky to see one, Colin! I'm not sure I've ever seen one.

a whole album, Danosaur, one of the greatest albums ever made
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:17:07 AM
@ Colin Now, for my own self, I'll make an extra donation during the next pledge drive if an enterprising WPRB host holds a cute mollusk up to the mic and it makes cute mollusk sounds ... ;-))
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:17:19 AM
Woah, WEEN❣️
Readie Righteous 11:17:50 AM
@Richard - what did Krista say? when you need a kitty, a kitty will come to you? Or something of that nature...
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:19:19 AM
What’s he doing out there with a chainsaw at 10pm?!? *just remembered this tidbit @DJ Krista
Readie Righteous 11:19:23 AM
...are they saying 'Recherché'? ... in there somewhere? I don't know, I'm multi-tasking!
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:19:38 AM
Ha!
Krista (host) 11:20:59 AM
I wish i knew, MrMalcontent, chainsaw man does what he does and i'm not fool enough to chase strange sounds into the woods at night
Danosaur 11:22:02 AM
Never chase a man who has a chainsaw
TAndy 11:22:30 AM
Beware the beast
Danosaur 11:24:45 AM
Don't worry, Krista, nothing bad ever happens in the woods in New Jersey at night
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:25:10 AM
😳😱

Krista I have to admit ... I can't go grocery shopping now without thinking of your kid challenging that lady to box.
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:32:06 AM
@ Readie Righteous I think Krista cited the wise old Zen saying that, "When the human and their broadcast room are ready, the kitty will appear ..."
TAndy 11:33:09 AM
Ooh cloudy LA. Assuming I can get the arrangements I may be back west for a couple of days next week. I'm bringing my rain galoshes.
Krista (host) 11:33:10 AM
lol, avoid husky 5 year olds with racing stripe haircuts and baby sisters
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:34:28 AM
I’m busy those days, TAndy
Danosaur 11:34:48 AM
It did actually rain yesterday, TAndy
Readie Righteous 11:35:11 AM
@Richard, should a kitty ever appear at the Barge, I will be ready....
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:36:57 AM

Lots of crypt chores, MrM? Dusting the coffins and whatnot?
iamthelabhras 11:38:02 AM
Any going to see Unwed Sailor @ Kung Fu Necktie tomorrow?
-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 11:38:07 AM
Lots to chainsaw and places in which to run with chainsaw and chit like that and such as

Sometimes I doubt your commitment to unwed sailors, Malcontent.
