I want to be an ice bear

los osos polares no lloran

¡Viva Melenas!

Primitives!! :-DD

*postpones departing for birding until 9:01*

Ah, good morning Commie and Rob. I'm profusely in sorrow that I missed ice bear :'(

👀

Morning TAndy!

🧊 🐻 (🐻‍❄️)

Love it. Just recently discovered kathleen.

Dang it's a Commie-thon 💥💥💥

Morning jimbooooo and Gary!

Gary you've got a lot of fun listening to do!

It started watching the punk singer-fantastic

@Commie, I was researching Elli & Jacno just now, and it looks like they made the soundtrack for the 1984 Eric Romer film "Les Nuits de la pleine lune" aka "Full Moon in Paris", which I think I saw during a Romer filmfest/retrospective many years ago

*Rohmer

Yesssssssssss

nice rob! i was actually introduced to them by youtube, back when it gave me good suggestions i hadn't heard before

I'M A PUNK AND I LIKE SHAM

Woo classic 90s PUNK

COCKNEY REJECTS ARE THE WORLD'S GREATEST BAND

BUT I LIKE JOY DIVISION AND PUBLIC IMAGE TOO

EVEN IF THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO

exactly!!!!

SO good

Hang on kids...

If the construct of America is 250 yrs old then we are all definitely still youts'

Another punk classic!!

This whole section is like a Chrome track

this whole set is tove's faves

hello from sunny Providence, Rhode Island, and thank you for hit after hit, Commie. i woke up with the anxieties of the world and they have since been SMACKED RIGHT OUTTA ME

tove is 3. aw mj <3 <3 ,3

"Plastique Couch" sounds like a joke on "Sa Plein Pour Moi" where Plastic Bertrand claims to be the "King of the Divan (couch)"

ha it's possible!

I never expected to hear a set like this on a Saturday Morning. Certainly a pleasant surprise

The kids just don't understand..."But the little girls understand" - was The Knack's second record

the kids just don't understand is from pleasant valley sunday! but the little girls understand is from back door man

Morning Marcus!

Morning Rob!

Commie with the 3 from downtown!

Commie, this has been a wonderful show, and a great way to start the morning!

YAY MELENAS!!!

TY commmmmmmiiiiiieeeeeeeeee

Thank you Commieee

thanks everyone, this was really fun. the hits continue this evening

I'm thankful that there's a place on the radio where it's 1981 forever. Your turntables to God's ears, Commie
