Jon Solomon Wed Dec 13 with Jon Solomon on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Chat is open!

Happy Hanukkah from the left coast

Thanks for tuning in!

Is Santa Sabbath a side project of Mac Sabbath the MacDonald's clown group

@Jon..Good evening…Travis I was going in the same direction

Happy Hanukkah Jon! Any progress since last year's show on a five-sided dreidel featuring equity?

My kid did get a lot of D&D dice for Hanukkah, will have to check.

Santa Sabbath does their own deal. Wish they would put out something new this year!

@ Travis…have you ever seen Mac Sabbath? They put on a great show and can really play

hey the chat is back! nice. good evening all! good evening jon solomon! good evening listeners! happy hanukkah! i'm already loving this show! thx for the plug, boss...

@carlos, I've heard they put on a good show, but I've never been witness.

Omg Hannaka rap hilarious gangsta Hannaka

Hello and happy Hanukkah Show!

Space Cowboy! Rob! Hello!

The only thing funnier was the te I heard about the hasidic acid head scene which I still don't think was real

I do remember that story about the crime ring of rabbis in brooklyn that got caught selling ecstasy

That's a FX limited series waiting to happen.

haven't heard about hasidic acid head scene!

I think Captain Ahab played something off the Hasidic Acid Ring record earlier.

!! I need that record

Looks like there *was* a movie about said drug ring starring Jesse Eisenberg and Q-Tip!

Holy Rollers. "In Brooklyn, a youth from an Orthodox Jewish community is lured into becoming an Ecstasy dealer by his pal who has ties to an Israeli drug cartel."

Jesse Eisenberg and Q-Tip - the new Tenspeed and Brownshoe!

great show so far. Love the Sabbath and the parakeet story

Holy rollers… name of the church bowling team on the Simpsons

Hello Jon! That Isaac Bashevis Singer story was charming.

remixed klezmer just works.

Glad you're tuned in, Patrick. Carlos too!

Yeah, loved the parakeet story!

Mary! Hey!

Hello Jon and chat! Happy Hanukkah!

This sounds like it could be a Stan freberg song

Happy Hanukkah everyone!

Hi everybody

Dennis! Dan! Hello there!

Hi Dan!

Judah Maccabot Jr. sends his regards to all. I do not believe there was a new JM for 2023?

Hi mary!

Hi Jon! Hi Dan!

Oh crap 😜

Space Cowboy, it seems your Hanukkah wish came true.

:-!😂

Seriously

Still pandering to the Desert Cruising crowd.

Ha, Mike. Also, hello!

:)

Happy Lights Jon!

Will have to light them from home after my show this year. No fire at The Barge!

happy Hanukkah jon!

The same to you, Andrew G.

This Hannukah fun is giving me a much needed smile, looking forward to the marathon.

you mean shofar....

Please please please let the new DJ Tenderloin song be about MAGNETS.

Mike, same. Finding uptempo new Hanukkah material this year was more difficult than in years past.

This show is, I would say on a whole, sillier than the complete Xmas marathon? I might be wrong!

I'd do a mash about magnets - but i can't figure out how they work...

DJ Tenderloin is in the chat *and* on the radio!

happy hanukkah everyone! happy to be here in the kibbitz room with y'all -

https://djtenderloin.bandcamp.com/track/halevai-for-hanukkah-latke-mix

it almost feels like an old Dr. Demento show.

I'll have to add that to the playlist...

Hi Jon! Great set. Loving these songs.

Shorter duration means denser silliness.

Thanks for being here, Debbie!

Mike, exactly! Makes it harder to prepare for in a way.

Do you need permission, say from a pontiff, to let this overlap into the christmas marathon?

Oh, that was excellent

Way to go @djt!

Mike, I think last year Xmas and Hanukkah crossed over so I did the marathon on the 24th / 25th and the Hanukkah show on Wednesday the 21st?

aw shucks...thanks er'body!

Not sure what I'll do in 3031, The Year Without Hanukkah.

Which, would be a great thing for someone to write a song about....

Soupy Garbage Juice is, of course, a very exciting band name for Meyer

Better a band name than a nickname.

3031, The Year Without Jon Solomon - but your bot?

Please explain why no Hanukkah in 31?

Not that we will be here

Captain Ahab could better explain than I but with a ~13 month lunar calendar and a 12 month solar calendar sometimes things line up and once every couple centuries they don't!

yeah - how come no hanukkah?

https://forward.com/fast-forward/529156/a-year-without-hanukkah-its-a-mathematical-certainty-in-the-year-3031/

well what the hell...mushugah!

Had a little cybergoth dancing under the bridge dance party to the stahlschlag

Nice.

hanukkah stomp - nice find, Jon.

These solos are the best.

Awesome

Just lit the candles, ate fried foodstuffs. Let’s do this.

Magical

...but I don't know how to play it

Andrew, I had the traditional Hanukkah dinner of "Indian soup from the hot bar at the grocery store."

Good call. I made carrot leek soup.

Hanukka rhymes border on the moronica.

Happy Hanukkah! Hey chat :)

DJ Pup! How are you, sir?

102 fever, pretty knocked out haha

Also, how did I not know about this Shudder To Think recording until this year?!

But enjoying the tunes and the festivities nonetheless

Oof. Feel better. I have been fighting a headache all day, worried I too will go down for the count.

Both me and the wife are just getting over bad cold - knocked out for 3 days - somethings going round

Feel better DJ Pup - my thing is Hot n Sour soup - as spicy as you can take it. kind of wipes it out of you

I'm in full Protect Jon At All Costs mode until the 26th but my wife works with a lot more in-person people than I do...not to mention a kid in school...so....

This Emergency Soup I got today helped a bunch. Wish I had hot sauce at The Barge.

Glad the headache got out of the way for tonight's show! And yeah it's like playing an endless game of Minesweeper avoiding the sicknesses going around

hoping for some healing Hanukkah vibes for you, DJ Pup.

School goes on break Friday afternoon so that's one finish line to cross.

Much appreciated 🙏

Wow.

3031 Hanukkah will be replaced by an extra Life Day.

Now we're talking!

Paging DJ Dana K

I see the Holiday Special documentary is now on demand.

This 3 Speed Sleigh song is hysterical! Paging Commie Francis ...

Hello it's me

I mean Commie Francis. I always confuse them because both their shows kick ass. Good evening all

It worked!!

Hi TAndy!

Pleasant evening, TAndy.

Dana has the way cooler theme song, desperate bicycles!

I’m old enough to recall seeing the Bay City Rollers on the Howard Cosell varierty show

Howdy TAndy

R from MD - thinking the same thing! Hi Commie! Hi everyone! love this - remember this from last year

Good things the Ramones were watching!!! Hey ho let’s go

Hope you feel better DJ Pup. This year is the worst for getting sick it seems

Sadly, there are no Desperate Bicycles-inspired Hanukkah songs...yet!

Jon, maybe some PRB djs can come up with one

I, too, saw The Rollers on Cosell show. It was exciting.

Dare to dream.

Thanks TAndy, its true

I remember seeing the Bay City Rollers on American TV performing Saturday Night. Maybe I saw the Cosell show too

Carlos - right there with you - I remember girls in grade school with copies of teen beat and tiger beat covered with pics of bay city rollers!

Feel better DJ Pup!

I got sick three times, twice within a month of each other during the summer so I coulda done better. My immune system is stronger, however, and so shall yours.

Thanks Rob!

I've made 15 lbs of potatos into latkes so far this year

For whatever reason (likely keeping the kitchen clean) we've decided we will do our latkes on New Year's Day.

Had some decent frozen ones heated up at my folks' place though.

New years day seems like a great day for them too

Wasn't my idea but I was into it.

DJ Tenderloin, some political news or 'news' site covering DC things has been sneeringly referred to as "Tiger Beat on the Potomac". I always smile when I see that

how do i not know this song? this is insane

First time I've played it so new to me as of this week too.

Actually, might have first heard it yesterday!

rob from md - i went to Mont. college for like a year or so and they called it Harvard on the Pike (rockville pike)

Happy Hanukkah all! Know that God loves you, and thinks you all have really cool taste in music. I got the memo... :)

Jon - that was sick! Latkelicious indeed

HA HA - roffle - that was on time

Heya Roffle.

Just a watchin' from beyond DJ T.

I really like this melancholy hanukkah song.

Mary, there are some surprisingly heartbreaking Hanukkah tunes!

Is this like Sun Ranukka?

So I see! It was beautiful!

did anyone else get out to one of the yo la tengo Hanukkah shows

Perfect lighting music-fun fun! Thank you Jon!

Hello, Julia! Hope your concert went well.

I'm not making it up to one this year, Andrew but I am jealous of those who got to see the Feelies acoustic set / their percussion section sit in with Yo La Tengo for their set.

It was lovely. But your show tonight is more fun!

@DJ Tenderloin, hee hee (re Harvard on the Pike)

the Feelies acoustic set / their percussion section sit in with Yo La Tengo for their set - HOLY CRAPOLA! I did not know that - Wow does that exist as a sound file somewhere?

There are certainly videos. Let me find you one.

https://www.stereogum.com/2245295/watch-yo-la-tengo-the-feelies-cover-the-velvet-underground-bob-dylan-in-nyc/news/

The version of Barnaby Hardly Working I saw was aces.

that sounds AMAZING Jon - yes would've been nice to been there - we watched one pay per view during the pandemic

Yo LA Tengo Hannukah show I mean

I had to take a chat break to buy kimchi supplies but I'll start mulling over how to make advice on arrest by the desperate bicycles into a Hanukkah song. Maybe it could be a passover song

This might be the dumbest thing I've ever typed. Stand by.

It was easy, it was cheap, it's Shavuot.

I was at the one with the Feelies. I felt like I won the lottery! All of the Feelies were on stage for a raging cover of Sister Ray

green with envy! Andrew G/ sounds incredible. love love love the feelies

Outstanding, Andrew. I had a bit of "inside info" that a Feelies member would be involved one night but I didn't know which one or how and by the time I would have asked it was the night you went to.

The last one we went to was Eleventh Dream Day + Joe Pera. Superb.

Princess cruzin'! LMFAO!

Moishe Oysher!

that cantor has got a set a pipes on him!

Moishe oysher made me legit cry

There's nothing wrong with some tears. For example, I got very misty watching the latest Doctor Who.

I can’t believe I missed the Feelies. Ok, I can believe, but the Arkestra on Night 1 was great.

Oh no, no Dr Who spoilers! I haven’t seen 2 and 3, I’ve been working too much!

Arkestra + The Feelies is a special thing.

Rosie Greer had it right - it's alright to cry...

No spoilers, Mary. My family is also two episodes behind so I have been treading lightly (but also repeatedly asking them if they're free for an hour to view).

I really appreciated on Saturday that someone we know posted about Doctor Who without doing that thing where people feel like "well, if I'VE seen it I can talk about it like everyone has seen it" and it served as my reminder to press play without knowing nothing.

Way to plunge.

Just press play

I like it!

I have really been enjoying the (mini?) series A Murder At The End of the World and pressing play without knowing much has been super rewarding. Now I'm caught up for the finale.

Nice.

33 minutes to go. Might actually get to play everything I planned on!

Gotta ask, how long have you been putting this show together? It's very cool, and that doesn't just happen after dinner the week before me thinks.

Okay, sometimes... sure

Roffle, I'm mostly previewing Xmas tunes in November / December but a few things pop up along the way and I did deeper digging this past week - laid things out in an order of sorts yesterday after work.

Before dinner!

Anything I find that I'm into I put in my "Hanukkah Pool" folder and then look at what I've got with a focus on stuff I haven't played before.

A glimpse into The Process.

I love the Pool concept. May I borrow tt one?

Of course!

Thanx! Guilt free is good. Free gelt is better.

"THEY ARE CANDLES!" is a popular catch-phrase around these parts.

This song (the DKs cover) and the Judah and the Maccabees were top notch!

This rules. Happy Hanukkah Jon!

Happy Hanukkah, Kelly!

I'm so glad you all could be a part of this year's All-Hanukkah Show.

Maccabot 2.0 still got game btw. We are so in the future.

Maccabot Jr. has been very patient all show, sitting still next to me.

Perhaps we'll have a few seconds left for his time to shine!

Time is shiny

Great show, Jon!

Thanks, Andrew. Need to watch your video!

OMG Drummer Boy! lol Can't wait for the Christmas Marathon Show now. lol

Another great Hanukkah show! Thanks for the plug there boss - greatly appreciated. Lovely hanging out here in the kibbitz room with everybody.

This was, to this point and no point forward, exceptionally fun for me.

SUPER EXCITED for the marathon!

So many Dradle references tonight I have vertigo. Thanks Jon!

Thanks for this show, Jon, it was wonderful!

Much appreciated, Rob.

Great time as always Jon! Can't wait for the 35th 25 or 26 on the 24th and 25th! Play those #s

Good night Jon. Good night Judah.

Judah gave all.

Thanks Jon, I needed this!

I had good laughs tonight and plenty of chuckles too. Have a great night Jon.

Ripping guit fiddle solo ther

What is the original of this "cover"?

Nvm I found it "Amoeba"

Amoeba by Adolescents!

Amoeba, Adolescents

Thanks, Jon and Mike!!!

I love the name Angry Snowmans ...

Thanks Jon!

All-Hanukkah Show!

It's my 11th-annual All-Hannukah Show.

Happy Hanukkah, everyone!
