Okay, I’m ready for a big bowlful 🍵

here's a bowl for you dave!

Good morning and welcome back DJ Aneek

Good morning Rob! How are you doing?

I just woke up, but from a nap (I was up at at 5:15). I am checking on the weather and the bird reports, wishing I had a bowl of khichdi

well if you want to make yourself a bowl, step 1: roast dal over a medium to low flame

How are you?

I'm doing good, my voice may sound weird because of cold

if i start dying coughing someone come into the studio and play my music, the show must go on!

Ah, yes, where have I seen that before? Maybe my wife and I will go to an Indian restaurant for dinner and order khichdi

Oh no don't start coughing!

Khichdi is this yellow colored dal porridge, my mom used to make it all the time when i was sick

Good morning DJ Aneek! Welcome back I the radio!

Good morning TAndy!

You should have some khichdi, Aneek, so you don't start coughing

Good morning TAndy!

Hey Rob!

This song was from a really big movie -- Bombay -- which deals with communal violence in India. The whole soundtrack is amazing!

Thanks for the info about these tracks. Does today's episode represent what your show will sound like this semester?

This is a huge array of music, but the rest of the semester will involve a lot of South Asian talent!

I think that HFT might find its way onto my Friday morning show - thanks!

HFT is phenomenal, I'm glad you like them!!

That's good to know. My wife especially would be interested in catching your shows. We both like South Asian music. Birding will get in the way though 😇 🦅 🔭

I cannot wait to hear from Mrs. Rob from Maryland!

Maybe you'll see a Indian Spot Billed Duck because of my show

Oooh, that would be awesome! I'm going to look for more mundane sandpipers and plovers, and an Olive-sided Flycatcher https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Olive-sided_Flycatcher/overview

Oh wow I missed Dum Maro Dum while upstairs out of earshot getting ready to go birding :-(

Alreet, thanks for all these nice tunes Aneek! Until the next time! And bye TAndy and Dave the Obscure

The coolest bird I saw this summer was in Peru, I saw a Marvelous spatuletail.

Until next time Rob!!

Wow! Tropical hummingbirds are something else! How cool!

And bye for reals. *Disconnects WPRB*

this has been a WONDERFUL show!!!

Thank you Alex!!

Still much more to come your way

I've shazammed so many songs from your show this morning. You're doing a nice job back announcing the songs but I just can't wait

Oh my god this is so sweet! I am so happy you like the set so far!!!

“Mahiya is a nocturnal track about love, loneliness and nostalgia,” the band shares. “It speaks about how one has befriended this loneliness that creeps up in the middle of the night and reminds them of moments held dear–a familiar voice, a poignant sound, a visceral memory.” The song approaches these feelings like a game of cat and mouse: “The more you chase them, the more elusive they become.” - Idioteq on Mahiya by Minaxi

ohhh these sounds!!!

A classic 90s pop hit for everyone!!

don't think I didn't catch that candy claws hehe
