Calling all octopods for some live radio

R cephalopod’s allowed in ?

Absolutely

TP is one of the all time greats !

Hello, DJ DanRuccia! Enjoying the randomness!

Thanks, Mr Malcontent! I have a feeling this show is going to be more random than normal.

Hello DJ Dan!

Mr M!

Mark!

Hey Bo. Welcome!

HeyOooo, Bo!

I got here too late for Diamanda Galas and the amazing Jay Reatard ...ARGHH!

props to dan for somehow soothing my strung-out nerves today :)))

Glad to be of service, John!

lol it's iris, employing my ~ street name ~

Hahaha

Amazing. Need to hear anything in particular to further aid in nerve soothing?

very satisfied with goat atm thank you

hit me w something weird

Challenge accepted for the next set

DJ DanRuccia, might you play the *slowed down* version of “Jolene” by Dolly Parton???

I'll see if I can find it. Worst case scenario, I've got some other slowed down Dolly

Whut?! There’s more than one??!!

just tuned in! ooo something for the vaccine queen's bday would be good

Whut??!! It’s DOLLY’s birthday?!? I’m losing my last marble!!

WHAT you suggested that and you didnt know it was her birthday????

Apparently she's 75 today!

What, you’re questioning my question?!?

Yes???? i am????

kinda sounds like cher rn

This is awesome! First it was fast and n o w i t ‘ s s o o o o s l o o O o o w

im still amazed that mrmalcontent felt compelled to suggest dolly parton without knowing it was her bday

also yes this is so epic

it's the spirit of dolly

it flows through us all

That’s how much more I heart her than you. We are connected and she thinks of me on my berfday.

manifesting herself in mrmalcontent

ok ok damb

💃

(◑_◑)

(◑u◑)

Thanks, DJ DanRuccia!

weird was delivered, i bow down

Me too As well In addition Also

And I’ll add two finger guns atcha!!

Thanks, y'all! I think I was supposed to review this record for some radio station, and instead it got lost on an old hard drive until I found it a few weeks ago. Been looking for an occasion to play it.

Your message just reminded me of Inflatable Boy Clams “I’m Sorry”. Know it?!?

I don't, but a quick preview tells me it's definitely coming up next

I hope Bo and Mark are still here to catch it with us!!

I bet Dolly Parton has tuned in by now! 👠💋

hehe

i am still here :^o

I would LOVE to hear what Dolly thinks of this show

I said, US @KatKat!!

But only if it's done in the same style as these guys listening to Jolene for the first time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pEPFYiJOXU

Do they luv it? I cannot remember!? I enjoy when they groove on something random.

I said, US @Iris

here we go. I’m sorry.

the period story was so sad yet so relatable

Ohhhhhh @mrmalcontent

yay i feel included

except that i got distracted and missed the boyclams song

it's okay. i understand that it is now an inside joke that i am on the outside of.

Check out the tune on the EnterWebs

@Mr M: Ah well. I knew it was only a matter of time before I polluted one too many airwaves. I'm **not** sorry

omfg this song [the boyclams one] is so funny hahahah

haHA! Cheers to you, DJ DanRuccia!

Hallo 2x4pods...late 2 the party. Been sleeping/listening fitfully and boy am i tired again 🐙🦑🐙🦑🐙🦑

I second that emotion.

husker du

John Doe from @xthebandofficial is doing an all-request solo show online Thu at 9pm! EST

dan, you get the pleasure of inauguration eve....feels better than election night?

Oh man, so much better

! love to hear it

Election night may have been the most stressful/anxious 3 hours I've ever had. Like having a nervous breakdown live on air

yeah, the cheeto-man, he's been a disease

welp, you made it less stressful for many of us listening in that night Dan!

MOE MOE MOE!

MORE MOE , :-)

Never enough Moe!

She was briefly in a band with the Bishop bros from Sun City Girls

WHAT???????

Paris 1942...pre-SCG

i shouldve guessed this was yoko

Gonna have to look for that. Are there any recordings??????

at least an album's worth

Mo & Yoko should form a band. Yoko-Mo? Who else should be in it?

Figures.

Was gonna sax Blixa Bargeld, but that's not quite right

has to fit the rhyme scheme

Oh shit. This reminds me of that pick of Bowie with Yoko, Bono, and ____ (name I can't remember that also ends with an o)

Eno!

https://www.bowiebible.com/gallery/1992-photos/920606-david-bowie-iman-bono-yoko-eno_01/

how could you forget Brian ?

he can def be producer

Bono's not invited, though

Dry your eye, Bono

blame me for Husker Du Dan, I can take it

Always good to have an excuse to play the Huskers

DJ DanRuccia!! Thanks for the Fun Show! Kind regards to you, Sir!

Thanks for your great requests, Mr M!

see ya pals! thx dan!

Cheers Dears and even those with Big Ears!

And thanks, as always, for tuning in, y'all! See you next week

All the thanks goes to you, DJ DanRuccia!

Thanks Dan, great show!
