We begin our broadcast day.

good morning Dave / except u truncated a great robot play: corn rigs from wicker man :)

I've lost all control.

haha already got me laughing this morning :)

Good morning, Mark. Good to see someone else getting up early.

it looks pretty nice out / gonna listen outdoor today looking forward to the show !

Yes, looks like the rain will hold off.

And a pledgerific morning to all

Good morning, dude. I'm going to need a bigger rake to gather all this pledge money.

We are currently at 210 pledges.

ha great surprise co host !

Morning, all 🌄

Our shows cover some of the same territory.

Good morning, Christine. I like the new ID.

Good morning. Polyphia has some great guitar playing. Some students turned me onto them back year or 3 ago when I taught gtr.

Two DJs for the price of one! Yes, I can see a lot of overlap with Nouveau Abnorms & World's Fare.

I like your parentheses Christine!

And I yours, Brian! 😄

Good morning, Brian D. Yes, Polyphia guitarists have some skills.

The challenge with math rock is to make it sound musical too, and not just mechanical.

Yes. True that. They throw in the necessary human element.

it's a;; good for me

all

Good morning, kentman. Welcome to the chat.

dave, sent my fund raise form in thursday, with my cc# and such, doing a monthly, first time ever for me

Cheers to monthly!

And nice trend christine!

@kentman, you go!

Also, read this recently and thought of us https://www.complex.com/music/first-time-you-hear-a-song-science

cheers dude,brian d & sweet christine

Thank ye kindly, Kentman. I also donate monthly. Now I get a nice email from WPRB every month.

Interesting with the math rock topic too, the science behind liking new music

@the_dude, you got parenthetical! I like it.

Ha thank ya, got the idea from a cool listener 😎

Pangeoooo!

Dude, was reading the obituary of Constance Demby, she invented an instrument called the space bass, it's on utube

Hello Tyler B.

That sounds wild Kentman, thanks, just bookmarked it!

210 in two days sounds great btw, can you imagine 200+ chatters?!

200+? That's like, Esoterica's chat room every time.

They post faster than I can read.

This chat is already thicker than my steel-cut oats!

G'mornin' Jimbeaux.

Esoterica's chat room is a maelstrom at times. So much energy from the Sonic Bloomers!

yesterday' show was wild, no way i was gonna wade into that chat, i type with 1 finger still

Yeah I know what you mean, it's tricky enough when I have time, let alone when I'm tryna work! Dana k's seemed fun last night too

How're those oats jimbeaux? Any fun mixin s? Making some breakfast focaccia over here

Dude...cherries, cloves, hunks o ginger!

jeez, i'm getting hungry

Whoa that's some elevated oat meal

Halfway to a chai

@jimbeaux, breakfast sounds delicious.

Do please let me know if my chai recommendations are successful. ☕️

Yeah, let's talk chai! Please keep me apprised of the chai situation. I haven't been shopping for chai ingredients yet.

out riding in that glorious sun we had Christine?

@kentman, no sadly I am not. I'm working in front of a computer until the afternoon. Are you biking today?

Star anise in chai? Heresy or heavenly? Discuss.

don't know enough about chai to discuss, but no Christine not today

All star chats yesterday. Eso, Mickey, LizB, DanaK... so many good stories & shares

i saw you read that johnny rotten book Brian D in one of em

@jimbeaux, 🌟 anise sounds like a worthy inclusion, but I haven't made chai yet, so what do I know. Gotta step up my tea game! Teaq

I have never tried star anise in chai. It has a strong taste. Might overpower it.

This one tea bag of I have has star anise in it..but it's the last ingredient so yeah be careful of not over powering

Tea bag of chai btw

Hot milk (dairy or non) with star anise is a bedtime favorite of mine, i think it could work with other spices in chai

Also good morning!

Welcome, Commie Francis.

Good morning! Sounds like a nice drink any time, maybe iced during the day...wait just iced milk sounds weird, needs coffee or tea

Star anise can work, but in small quantities. It's not part of my usual recipe. But hey, there are no prohibitions.

or Irish whisket

Good morning, Commie F!

I like it, but some cannot abide. Black cardamom is another hot topic ingredient...very mentholated.

@kentman, that would make it Sláintchai

Oh, brilliant, Christine!

A rum chai would work!

Kent yes. The Johnny Rotten book with the word No... No... No in title. Good read.

i was going to respond to that yesterday, but couldn't get my thoughts together

is this still math rock?

Trey Gunn is sort of math rock. I guess.

Lol @ Sláintchai ! And I've been keeping an eye out for black cardamom but haven't seen it, I've heard it's strong and different, what do you use it in?

Black cardamom is generally used Indian curries, chicken, lentils, etc. Too powerful for chai.

Gotta get my hands on some soon

Best deals in Indian grocery stores.

There's a a few good ones in bucks County I've been to, haven't seen a lot in the city actually. Any good ones near you evad?

there's 1 in Bensalem i go to,

Loads. In central Jersey where I live, the demographics support at least one in every town.

Wow, this is beautiful.

Nice cover version, but it ends too soon.

I’m going to the Bensalem store tomorrow to do ingredient shopping

@DTO, I agree.

@Mark: note that they might have two types of fresh ginger. I use the larger ones. The smaller thinner ginger is much more intense.

Love the international music on both your shows!

Recently, with all the great releases on Habibi Funk and Sahel Sounds, most other shows are filtering in more international music.

got me celtic blood pumping

Aye.

Hooray for Habibi Funk & Sahel Sounds 🇳🇪 people need to hear Les Filles de Illighadad!

Indeed, Christine. Were it not for those labels, we would probably never hear many great groups.

And were it not for PRB... 📻

Our musical horizons would be far narrower and dimmer.

Good points evaD

💯💯💯💯💯

That Celt Symphony was wonderful!

The great DJs at WPRB all inspire each other to up our games.

seriously! i think we all make each other feel inadequate, but in an inspiring way

Well put, ☭

Yes!

Björk! 🇮🇸 💙💙💙

You can't say "no" to hope...

Good morning Dave, happy drive!

On a mountaintop with a radio and good batteries.

Good morning , Krista.

Morning, Krista! Thank you for always enriching our habitats each week.

I scrolled down to the cardamom conversation, black cardamom has a smokier taste. There are 2 species of it, one that's used in Indian cooking and one in Vietnamese/Thai/Chinese cooking. The latter is the key to a perfect Khao Soi and I have found it at Passyunk Square in Philly

Krista on the scene with the scoop!

Khao soi! One of my favorite Thai dishes, didn't know about the black cardamom in it..now I need to get some

I went on a long quest for it. Khao soi is my favorite food. I had it often in Minneapolis but haven't found it here!

There's a cool region in Thailand where that's the specialty, really famous/cool ruins in the area too

There's a few with it in Philly, I think circles thai has it?

https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/09/khao-soi-gai-northern-thai-coconut-curry-noodle-soup-recipe-laksa.html

Makrut lime and palm sugar are 2 more things to pick up

Also, I love how the djs inspire each other! It's cool how y'all are so humble about it too

I was recently turned on to an album by Conan Mockasin "Forever Dolphin Love". It would fit nicely into many WPRB djs shows. If Ween and Flaming Lips and Mac DeMarco evolved in Europe, joined a cult and put on a musical. Lots of fun sounds running in and out of the mix, processed voices, lush echoey rhythm guitar. Lot of fun.

Thanks for the recipe, will check it out, I thought pork was central to it too, no?

Ha adding that to the list Brian, had me at joined a cult

Traditionally, chicken I think. I have never had the pork version. That sounds just like my vibe Brian, I'll check it out.

I miss our makrut tree. Sticky leaves attracted dust and little white spots grew all over it. For a while there had fresh leaves to throw into a pot of rice or a wok.

Ya. I could see evaD, Pato/Pangaeo, Hanna and others working Conan M into their show

Niiiice , been wanting a house with some land for trees and plants like that

I would score the lime leaves a couple times w knife to get some more essentials to release. Smashed clove of garlic and a lime leaf in rice was wonderful. I made a nice hybrid of 2 Thai dishes wchicken, cashews, fish sauce, sugar , hot chile or 2, whatever stir fry vegs/greens we had that time o year that fit in... let the lime leaf sit in there. Mmm

I will check out Conan, Brian. Thanks.

Animals as leaders, a band I've listened to and have enjoyed but clearly need to explore more

Animals as Leaders consistently sound like this.

dave bringing a bit of noise to wake us up :)

Sorry forgot an 'n' . He spells it Connan. And yes Mockasin with a 'k'

Ha that's true, yeah idk why I never got too deep into them then, I was probably in a heavier phase

WPRB is now at 232 donors! Thanks everybody!

🎊🎉

Spinny McTroniac will am is my friend

You more of a chef or musician Brian? Lol

YES! Canterbury set!

Throw it into the stew sonic or edible Dude ... it all abideth

There's a bass heavy funky metal band I recently remembered that just popped in my head from that last song, anyone ever listen to Cauae for Effect?

Haha I know just what you mean

Not familiar, dude, but will explore later today.

Cool yeah it's a duo, drummer and bassist who does a less intense metal vocal, it's fun and funky though, curious what ya think

I will let you know.

They're all short songs, most under a minute so yeah easy to explore. I'm most familiar with 2001-2004 stuff but they keep the same style

Groovin on this organ

Influence of Emerson Lake & Palmer is evident.

Getting Organized... I can B3 things at once!

O very Emerson yes

One of these days I'll get organizized. And yeah it's definitely there. Recently inherited some ELP records and have been playing thru them, been fun

pax vobiscum 🙏 dave & pangeo (not pato) / lovely start to weekend & day 2 !

Just made my pledge. I was waiting for the right moment, and Le Orme was the appropriate sign from the heavens.

Kind thanks, Bud.

the gif comments particularly strong / stil LOL over Boris Johnson hair inspiration:)

I can see Boris getting into Cocteau Twins, discretely.

Album are on this one is pretty good too

Thank you Dave the Obscure 🌚 and Pato 🌝

Thanks again for a great show and all you do for us all and the station, cheers to you evad and Pato! See the rest of ya throughout the day

Agreed, dude. I added the album art to the playlist.

Thank you all for supporting WPRB, and keeping me company this morning.

Stay tuned to ‘PRB for 🏃🚦Running Redlights with Jen.
