a good howdy to all

Howdy!

Hey Dana!

rob and steve and alan! welcome!

Dana: Are we gonna hear about how last week's Trekkiecon went on air??

This version of Part-Time Punks is wonderful, and hilarious!!

I didn't go! but there's one in philly in november!

I love the Door and the Window. borderline unlistenable band, but so funny

Hello Dana K!

Hi Marcus!

I've never heard or even heard of The Door & The Window before. My wife and I are both broadly smiling

*or at least remembered hearing them

that was terrible and i loved it

Their drummers cymbal work was positively jazzy.

Dana: in case you're interested I found this Trekkie thing/song on YTube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wcwHd_OTi4&list=RDcABJKo9uqbI&index=9 (for after the show of course)

helloooo! happy friday!

thank you!

hi richard! hi andrew!

i will be DJing the clown lounge again next month! haven't picked a date yet and not allowed to announce it on air anyway

Greetings humans

hi yoni

are you gttg?

Humans? Aaaaaaa!

Nah. Can't be bothered with the Khyber show and while I should go see Pansy Division at MOCA, I am generally unenthused about that.

Another song hating on the Kings Road crowd

well the most punk thing you can do with your time is listen to the radio

Not unenthused about Pansy Division. Just not in the mood to cross the city and go to a show. Did that last night. Will be doing it tomorrow and Sunday, too.

busy bee

i'm going to IKEA tomorrow

Hell yeah. Lmk if I can tag along. Baby needs STUFF

By stuff I mean veggie dogs

I go to IKEA for the meatballs

Definitely going for the meatballs. And a new KALLAX for the records.

This band Plum is so good. Chicago. New.

wikipedia is saying that Mark Perry from Alternative TV joined The Door and The Window for the Detailed Twang album

Yes! That is true

Mark Perry had his hands in so many UK DIY projects

WTF IS UP DBTFers

howdy to you, jimbo!

Loving this violin

Howdy jimbooooo!

This track is originally from 1982. Band formed in Brisbane along with the Go-Betweens and like the Go-Betweens moved to London.

Wow, Pansy Division is still together and playing Philly tonight?!

Never broke up AFAIK

@Rob, in '94 Greenday refused to play a show when the promoter said Pansy Division couldnt play

Finally some good music

This is such a delightful band

Which one

Spread Joy

Truly delightful

My previous comment was a joke about the Dead Milkmen

Check out this nasty horn

damn that horn nasty

Enjoying the set so far

Thank you, T R!

More horn

Dana, do you think APB fits into tonight's show?

I could make some room for them! Played them at the bar on Wedneday.

*wednesday, even

He's talking about the Deutsche-Welle German shortwave broadcast which my father would listen to.

Neue Deutsche Tanzmusik, Neue Deutsche Welle

D🤑N'T B💰CK the FR🪙NT! 🤩

Hi Colin!!!

you can call it "breech loaded" instead

this is a good request

Marcus always comes thru

@Dana K Group Therapy is "UK post-punk band formed in Grimsby in December 1981." https://www.discogs.com/artist/1408212-Group-Therapy-7

Grimsby! Of all places

i'm glad we got lilliput 2 weeks in a row. i've only really heard the whistle song. made me look up from my video game to see who.

The Kill Rock Stars compilation is essential!

They have SO many good songs

ok. looks like me and my coworkers are gonna get to hear KRS comp for the first time tomorrow. I can be so noob at this music stuff sometimes.

Hey I wish I could discover that record for the first time again

there is probably a chance i've already heard 75% of it because wprb

I think I bought it at Spaceboy a lifetime ago? Maybe along with the Essential Logic compilation

speaking of urges to kill, there is a mosquito in my house.

A couple of weeks ago I woke up with four or five mosquito bites on my foot. Which I suppose had breached blanket containment while I was sleeping.

Fellow Mosquito Haters: I bought one of these in June, seem to work real well... https://simplyzap.com/pp/all-2/?gad_source=2&gad_campaignid=23839646558&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI7IuGy6vJlAMViAPbAR2i5BZ3EAEYASAAEgIas_D_BwE

once again, there is so much fun new music this year.

alan, since it has been cool enough to have my windows open, i can hear that two houses down they have a zapper.

it also has not escaped me that open windows increase mosquito in house chances.

C Monsta: This zapper is abs quiet!!!

looks at my multivitamins to see if they contain comateen

Comateens! They're from Avenue B

take two comateens before a workout and lay on the floor and do nothing.

My kind of workout

lol i have been trying to pronounce f-eye-science?? since that song started. fry science..... fries.... mmmmmmm 🍟

APB was also the darling of WLIR Garden City

Ready for that Bogshed tribute show

I'm still the only DJ on WPRB to have ever played Bogshed (at least in the last six years)

I DARE another WPRB DJ to play Bogshed!!!

Wait are you the world's youngest Bogshed or Pig Bag fan? Both?

all that sax last week and dj drops another sax banger! 💪

I'm New Jersey's youngest teenage Bogshed fan

🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷

borgerrr

burger time

Ketchup and Mustard??

I like ketchup and mayo on my burger. Or "burger sauce"

(The foodie part of the show)

:))

What's good on a burger? SPICY MANGO

I've never tried that!

Burgs

...and don't forget the sliced pickles!!

1,000,000 burgers in 100 years is 27 a day

I'm on it

🍟

hmm I might have to burger after the barge tonight

My kid works at Five Guys in Warminster. Go bug him.

It would take me 2.5 millennia at my rate to million burger

He'd better put extra fries in the bag

..had tuna yesterday..

tuna salad?

Only for you

...you can tune a guitar, but you can't tuna fish....sorry...

lol. I can pop in that 5 guys yelling, which one yall the kid from that dude from that radio chat?!?!?

colin gonna get thrown outta 5Gs

He'll totally know what you mean.

Steve's kid is cool.

He went to DEVOtional with us

imma try to steal a burger as they strong arm me out the 5gs

He's a black belt in Tang Soo Do

I warned you colin

vegas odds say the monstas have no chance against radio chat guy's kid

And he grew up watching Power Rangers

Thought you said WPRB maggots and not magnets and I got very excited

Slipknot fans?

The only band from Stoke On Trent is Discharge but this is pretty good!

WPRB / Maggot Brain crossover shirt

slipknot gets my head boppin!

I kind of have a soft spot for Slipknot. They were my best friend's favorite band when we were in middle school. We were the only two "alt" kids at school so we had to hang out!

Discharge!

Guiding Light was the longest running soap opera

i saw slipknot at an ozzfest with out ever hearing them before. 🤯

does don't back the front have the sickest bass lines on wprb? science may need to happen on this. 🤔 🔭 🧪

I love a post punk bass almost as much as a post punk saxophone

It was even coming through my Five Below ear pods.

evening dana bash front

Hey Ossy!

Dana K you are killing it tonight!

Thank you!

love this one!

no throwaway/placeholder songs on DBTF

This band is from France and have been around since 1992!

This band is from Chicago and this album RIPS

First play on WPRB! Gotta get this one for the stacks.

It's really good

Apparently Lupica played this song yesterday! I'm in good company

This song is loaded with punk riffs that are on the tip of my tongue

i sure hope that nobody else has any delusions of getting the aux at work tomorrow. because therre are a couple of things on le 🇫🇷 list now.

They are streaming weird movies on Cathode Cinema right after my show ends

Cathy

Borghesia: the other band from Slovenia

🚨Jam ALert!!!
