gooood morninggg

my favorite cat is my cat at home whose name is dapple (don't ask why)

Good morning. Psst this is not cold weather. Not by a long stretch. Wait for January February maybe... then if it's 0 to 20 degrees we can use the word cold. Maybe.. . If it ever gets cold again these days.

my cat has PTSD

it's just colder than usual Brian!! I woke up with the windows open and was shocked

Dave that must be hard

were you at the Arooj Aftab concert last Thursday?

I mean it was cold enough I had to turn my 6am bike ride into a 9:30am ride 😭 still out here sup everyone

Dave, was the cat tuned into the radio at about 9am on Fridays perhaps?

Poor cat, won't allow herself to relax and get scratched.

They're a feline radio station!!

I was not! I just kinda got into her stuff this weekend lmao

WMEW. WMRW.

WCAT (basic)

WMRP

KATT west of the Miss

🥺

WCANHAZACHZBRGER fm

I heard that

wmreowww

my cat's meows are like 5 sec loong

I just saw a cute big orange kitty with a cream colored chest AND HE RAN FROM ME

Neighbor has (i hope present tense still) 20 year old cat. Has that scratchy meow that is just static. Love that.

awww

older cats >>

Experience!

Must be 21... Fun artwork on this brewery's cans: https://fatorangecatbrewco.com/

21+!!!!

so for cats... what.. 4 years/

That brewery is made for me

Oh well... guess they don't maintain the website well. But they are still a-brewin'. image search will show some good results. The tall boy can w all the kittens on it (Baby Kittens IPA). And another I just had in Asbury Park last weekend, "Stay at Home Dad with No Kids" Hazy. Good stuff.

I love the designs. but I don't love an IPA

This one always reminds me of The Office episode (mentioned before when you played this)

omg don't expose me for having played this before

but very valid

You can just blame it on that Group Psychology DJ instead...

SO TRUE!

IPAs :(

Wake me up when we have more ying-a-ling style beers and sours on deck

perhaps an acquired taste, like TNA

TNA?

I'm just an idiot w beers

The New Abnormal. Perhaps you've heard of it

LOL

Love that album

A friend gave me an "Elvis Juice" IPA recently and I liked that to be fair

I forgot what I had at Barcade but it was a cherry sour that was extremely tart and refreshing

Mmmmm

Sours >>>

I got a 6 pack of sour monkey last week. Costs $4 more than it used to and taste like rubber :(

this album is from fat cat records...

somehow I predicted the theme of the chat today

this old grizzly bear stuff makes my eyes water

so good

That June McDoom you played earlier so had Grizz vibes omg

right???

hoping she has a big break soon

She so deserves it 💙

I love the sunbear

smallest one in the world

@ Methuselah Mouse (host) Great show, thanks!

Mornin Richard! I'm more of an Eagles guy myself |:)

thanks Richard!!

@ TAndy Hey there, TAndy!

Beautiful day today 💙 had to take a photo of two on my short outing

aww

that could be a midwest emo album cove

hop along into deerhunter.. is this playlist.. for.. me? ◡̈

yes for sure

esp if your profile image is a cat

it was tailor-made

<3 lovin it thank you (it is a cat with a bird-in-mouth hah, from a photo I took a long time ago)

Love it

YES THIS SONG YES I LOVE THIS

That's the kind of response I love to hear!

Speaking of Windows 96, I recommend the Numero 95 edition: https://www.discogs.com/release/19829524-Various-Numero-95--Virtual-Experience-Software

Ayeeee

tha's crazyyyy

Here's better info: https://cabinetofcuriosities.bandcamp.com/album/numero-95

That oversized replica floppy diskette is my kind of nostalgia 🤤

before my time but I get it

speaking of tech nostalgia. why won't apple make a brightly-colored plastic macbook

kinda all I want

I was coming up at the tail end of that so I share a mixture of real and losstnostalgia for that

@TAndy, if you need to scratch the lost nostalgia vaporwave fix, George Clanton is coming through Philly!

something very chic about this

He is??? I thought he was just going to NY!

@MM I want the translucent trend sooo back I'm so tired of glass and metal sandwiches

I'll take high strength plastic that doesn't crack when it's cold

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F163911038984&psig=AOvVaw2xc93WLQDn5Xz7y6bORayb&ust=1696951517669000&source=images&cd=vfe&opi=89978449&ved=0CBAQjRxqFwoTCJjNoJWj6YEDFQAAAAAdAAAAABAJ

I loved this

Omg yes in Philly tomorrow night I should do that

I wanted one as a kid so ba

I miss my phones with the back plastic that was like little bump

https://androidcommunity.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/samsung-exhibit-2-4g.jpg

https://www.engadget.com/2010-02-22-motorola-devour-goes-hands-on-hits-best-buy-for-150-this-week.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAJdQgp0gx1z4hs1ok8gRAUtS7IYkSgMiGLlDWMSpprp2IJ3-DAj5sIvFCtXPq5Xgu1YXGvL-WoV03P5xEvUFd2Y0UHu3INBWbJN4lqE2-as_AX9wJ-x6ABG6wiEEPp_zvFp3-_V429lvMR_bq6Q7OyyOeGSz7wTcRu4GAFxq01bm

Bring back the dang bezel too I'm tired of accidental touches when I pick up or hold my phone. Funny how the bezel is suddenly seen as ugly when phones start becoming glass sandwiches and need thick plastic cases (that do the job of a bezel in keeping unnecessary contact off) to protect them from everyday damage

my dad had one of these when I was growing up and I loved it

@MM, I remember my first dive into the OG iMac's with the CRT's when I was in grade school. What a time to be a kid!

https://directmobileaccessories.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/htctouchpro2tmobile.jpg

That was and still is the legitimate pinnacle of smartphone design

@bob I was entering grade school as they got rid of the CRT iMacs - but I still remember how COOL and FUTURISTIC they looked

@MM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir7UmJ_foHs

BRENT RAMBOOOOOO

Me rn https://giphy.com/gifs/dancing-duane-12CvxNY8J5utEs

hahahaha

bahahahaha

🤯

have either of you seen the Verge's article/video on how Steve Job's sabotaged the Apple Lisa? Super fun story behind that: https://www.theverge.com/23724804/lisa-computer-apple-steve-jobs-burial-utah-sun-remarketing-documentary

Oh naw I haven't! Can ya give a clifnotes version?

SUCH a good piece

Gonna bookmark and read that after lunch

@TAndy, the video is really enjoyable to watch! I don't want to ruin anything with a TLDR haha

I also just found deets on an actual touchscreen iMac from 1999 🤯

saw the same article!!

anyways, that's enough Apple content from this Windows fanboy 🐱‍💻

Oh I didn't know it was a video too, I'm probably going to watch that in a few minutes then

@MM Thanks for the tunes this morning!

Thanks so much for the show!

thanks for listening, folks!!
