Hi Alan!

Hey Bri!

We're LIVE!

The Grime Wiper requests more DEMON READIE

Mosh Wassail

HELLO!

Scots New Year tradition to. Go ta the neighbors give us a drink then. Repeat!

Curly Schmoe Besser

All automation = epic grimness and brutality.

Congrats on over 800, does that include mail in checks?

Hey you all usual suspects!

HAHA ,MY CAPSLOCK IS STUCK. I HAVE JOINED THE CAPS CLUB

Yes, that includes that too! @Alan!

I am some schmo, and I'm proud of it.

Phew, That's better!

WE NEED 20 PLEDGES!

shout it out!!

Mickey, You are a consummate schmo!

Hey I'm one of the 800 since last tuesday

Thanks, Alan! Good question about the checks - I BELIEVE that tally includes them...

The Sprawl will now be known as Schmo Consomme.

Curly Schmoe Besser! Nice, Brian D

THANKS Alan!

Schmo Consomme!! Ha! Perfect! You can change it every week like Mr. Various!

Yes! Here's to mr. various!

In to the valley of Death ran the 800! Look out commercial radio!!!

I miss answering the phones for you two. Here's to next year...

You said it Mickey! I so miss the mothership!

And remember, EVEN if you've already pledged, you can ALWAY pledge again! I have pledged several times this drive alone! 20 is our bare minimum goal. Not as much as we got during my show last week, but starting small! Okay, that's my pitch for now!

Aw, Mickey, Thanks! Here's hoping!

Calling Emeril Lagasse!

Like Jim Morrison said earlier, you can pledge two times.

Mickey, EXACTLY!

BAM!

Hittin' that food with the SPICE WEASEL...and a PLEDGE!

Suddenly craving some Zapps

what's that thing- a mandolin? some curly fries? JULIENNE

I can smell the essence.

what's zapps Mickey?

Emeril's passed out on the floor after last night's hedonistic feast! I was like HedonismBot with those cold pizzas and seltzers

I love t for F!

SPICE the Final Frontier (In Australia)

Potato chips from Louisiana. Strangely available at the Princeton Station Wawa.

Oh wow! more goals

At least pre-covid...

FYI, Readie & I are doing these mic breaks fully live, so I'll catch up with chatting after mic breaks and during songs, like now! Got a couple more songs coming up first!

TOTALLY LIVE!

all the way live! that certainly deserves some pledging! pledge.wprb.com

OUR FIRST PLEDGE!!!

NIIIIIIICE!!!! WHO BE THIS FINE RADIO DEVOTEE???

Let's premiere it LIVE ON AIR!

wanna?

this vocal is soooo good!!!

Mickey, send those chips to usssssss! I want Mike's cold pizza leftovers. I need fuel to get us through the show!

Yeah, I'm getting hongry

THANK YOU, NATHAN W.R.!

An easy way to jump straight to the Listener Chat is the URL wprb.com/chat. Takes ya right there!

Yes zapps available locall! Mebbe they just make them in PA with all other chips & ship to the Weeziana.

Thank you Jon! Congrats on a stellar performance with sparklers last night!

Zapps Cajun Craw Tators. And Voodoo. Vinegar bbq chili kitchen sink chips

Mmm

Hi i'm in a board meeting and also in THE CHAT

My bet is Utz or another local ish snack co. got a distribution deal w Zapps or something

Cranking the show in the parking lot waiting for play rehearsal to get out. Sounding good! How about Charles Bradley’s cover of Changes...?

@lizbot hope u caught esoterica donor reward of singing white room / I’m sure it made jack bruce smile :)

Omg I didn't know we had that url!

u & will considine were my jack Bruce station gurus playing his solo stuff :) !

Zapps!

Voodoo Zapps!

I wish

haha Princeton wawa is quite fantastic / i was there a few weeks ago fyi bloomberg hall is still standing too !

Now you got me wanting to try those, Mickey!

Hi Mark!!

Hi Commie!!

Concierto de orange juice

@Brian D - You're probably right that someone like Utz is behind Zapps

Nice to know the Mothership is still there. klaatu nikto barada

Concierto de juga de naraja!

It is indeed a swanky wawa

NaraNja!!

Hi Commie and Mark!

Hi Pink!

Aww, it's Pink! love that color!

I always tell people that that Wawa has a friggin SKYLIGHT and a crazy origami-shaped ceiling, esp over the registers, and they never believe me until they see it first hand!

I think they grow grass on the roof

oooooh, very green, Pink

Hi Jon!

I keep wanting to respond wprb chat style in this board meeting zoom. WOO GOOD JOB JONATHAN ON YOUR DATA ANALYSIS

Oh nice to see Jimbeaux again!

Hi jimbeaux!!!!! Sorry I didn't see you sooner! Doing the mic breaks live too!

Hi ReadIE!

@jimbeaux, Weeziana was the LAST trip I went on before the pandemic! Went to NOLA in mid-February 2020! So glad I got there

@Commie - HA! DO IT, TELL THAT JONATHAN HE DID GOOD!!!!

Pink is beautiful!

@jon, good to know about that URL, I never think of that!

I don't usually eat potato chips, but when I do, I eat Voodoo Zapps.

Once every 4 years or so...

@Mickey, ha, same

Except, instead of Zapps, it's those Irish crisps, Mr. Tayto! Prawn crisp flavor. He lives in a guarded FLAVOR CASTLE. Not joking.. the northern Irish factory is in an old castle because they have too many castles, they don't know what to do with them there!

@Commie- lol on the zoom thing...I use the zoom clapping hands emoji when a colleague does a good job!

Also cajun dill? Right Brian/Jim?

I typed Zappa's by accident at first. THAT would be a VERY different chip experience!

💖💖

Zappa's Gator Taters, yup, coulda been a record

Definitely got Zappa album title potential

weasels, rip my chip bag open

Don't eat the yellow chips

HA!

AND ate my flesh

HA!

burnt gator sandwich

lol

we're only in it for the ZAPPS

I guess Hot Zapps is too easy...

I only f with the Zapps Cajun Craw Tators, Voodoo and i think there was a mystery flavor once.

LET'S GO LETS APPROVE THESE MINUTES ALL RIIIIIIGHT

Where do I sign CF?

I think big grocery with a W carries the Zapps too or they used to. Booze section is size of another country at the Pton location

From the great Yellow Moon lp

Aw another one of my bosses donated, i hope i didn't miss my shout-out. Meeting allllmost over

@Brian D - YES! Love this cover

This is great!

@Commie - Nice! You seem to have awesome bosses!

Omg finally radio time

@Read - I love the original too of course, but I had to play the Nevilles for NOLA, and yeah, damn, that wavery gorgeous voice!

Whoa, I missed The Five Stairsteps

Hi Rob! Aw, dang!

NO U

@Lizbot, I'll check it out on YouTube. Plus it's not the Ooh Child song I know from my youth

THANK YOU, JOHN MULVANEY!

@Rob - Ooh Child is gorgeous! And used in a beautiful scene in Spike Lee's "Crooklyn" movie

@Lizbot, it is. And that's one of many many movies I've not seen, sadly. I'm loving this Staple Singers song too

@Rob - I love that movie, it's his most autobiographical. The character Clinton in the movie is based on him- of course Clinton is a huge Knicks fan. His dad was a professional musician in real life, etc.

PLEDGE FOR BETTY FRIEDAN , PLEDGE FOR ROSA PARKS

Sup Righteous-Bot

I BELIEVE we can make this goal!

Hi Buck Wild!!!!!

Hi DAN!

HI!

Drella will come back from the dead with an umbrella to shield him from the endless barrage of pledges!

Had to run over from dinner to yell about this song!

The man from Wales

@Lizbot one day I'll see that movie!

Can we make it? I think we can make it!!

I love this album even though it's mean to pittsburgh

Pittsburgh was mean to Andy though

How far from 1000 are we?

We need Jon Solomon for that

@Commie - Yeah, spent a lotta time at that Warhol museum, though I like Mattress Factory better!

Absolute Warhola

Don't get me wrong (Gimme some money, gimme some money) Try getting me right (Gimme some money, gimme some money) Your face is okay But your purse is too tight (Gimme some money, gimme some money) I'm looking for pound notes, loose change, bad checks, anything Gimme some money, gimme some money

Or lili

Someone summon Jon or Mike or Lili for complete tally!

BUT WE CAN see OUR total # of pledges during today's show!

Idle: But I love money. All money. (growing excited again) I've always wanted money. To handle! To touch! The smell of the rain-washed florin! The lure of the lira! The glitter and the glory of the guinea! (stands up ) The romance of the ruble! (stands on chair) The feel of the franc! (stands on desk) The heel of the deutschmark! (stomps foot) The cold antiseptic sting of the Swiss franc! And the sunburnt splendor of the Australian dollar! (slaps knee)

Yes, we need the mail call!

And I will be announcing some exciting donors soon!

I've got ninety thousand pounds in my pajamas. I've got forty thousand French francs in my fridge. I've got lots and lots of lira, Now the deutschmark's getting dearer, And my dollar bill could buy the Brooklyn Bridge. There is... (enter a chorus of 5 men in women's pilgrim costumes) ...nothing quite as wonderful as money! There is nothing quite as beautiful as cash! Some people say it's folly, but I'd rather have the lolly, With money you can make a splash!

@Brian D! the great eric idle

I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED.

"Master of the Universe" has arrived!!

Hi!

I wonder what I should change my screen name too ...

By "Master" I meant Jon..

Awesome playlist! Just got my second vax and listening on the road!

@ Rob Is ROBBOT too obvious?

hi esoterica!!!

ESOTERICA! Hello!!! Great show today!

@Alan, I hadn't thought of that, seriously, I hadn't

Hey Rob H.!

I don't feel it is my place to give an exact total so let's instead say WPRB is somewhere between 150 and 175 pledges away from 1,033.

Hi Rob H!!!!! RobBot is great, Rowboat? Here come the RobBots!

Jon, !!!!!!

Hi Readie, it's just me changing around my name

Wow, thanks Jon!

We can totally hit that, Thanks Jon!!!

Oh, gotcha, Rob!

Totes McGoats

Alan P, P is for Paid By Check!

We are gonna get to 30 during DOUBLEPLUSGOOD with everyone's help! What OTHER celebrities might emerge with their pledges, Human and non-human????

Thank you, Alan P!!!!

YAY ALAN

Nice name, Robbbbbboat!

@Lizbot I thought about changing my screen name to Black Francis...

Tho I've already pledged

Can't believe I missed Snaildartha. Good guy.

@RobBot - Not a bad idea! Here Comes My Pledge!

@Jon - YES! Good ole Jerry!

!!!

We all have to sing Rob's name as a round. Now this person starts...

@Brian D now wait a minute ...

:-)

@Lizbot, why, of course!

haha, From the Desk of Mr. Recess Lady, someone just messaged me! A Le Tigre / Pearl Jam mash-up! Dear god, I can't imagine...

Grocery pickup tonight as I was first posting in LizBotChat. The car smelled a little like a grocery store on the way home as the cargo wafted up from back. Have not smelled that smell inside of an actual grocery store in months.

Green light : GO!

Parking lot pickup and door front delivery are welcome trends of this crazy year that I may continue.

@Brian D - You might inspire Emeril to whip up some more PRB stews!

mmmm, stew the scent of grocery cargo!

No more of that COULDA, Woulda, SHOULDA pledged!

Yeah let's GO now!!!!

It took us so so long to live in a place with an actual within range pizza delivery address. 2 apartments and then... we had to BUY something to get pizza delivery! Worth it.

I recently made my first trip to Wegmans in over a year after my 2nd vaccine waiting period and it's a good thing I was wearing sunglasses because I wept like a soviet leader in an American grocery store

KRISTA!!!!

Did I tell my Wegmans story on-air or just to Mike and Cookie last night?

Man, I MISS Wegman's!

I bought one of those perfect grocery store fruit tarts

That Wegmans booze section as I mentioned earlier in Zapp chat section is like the size of another country.

I don't believe I heard it, Jon! DO TELL

I didn't hear it either Jon

And by the way, I saw you in Princeton Wegman's once, Jon, if you recall!

Hey Krista! love it!

did the fruit tart have a Disney (tm) like sparkle on the glaze that hit your eye like a diamond shine?

In short: Went to Wegmans after what turned out to be my last show in the WPRB studios. March 11th, 2020. Grabbing a few last minute essentials since we were going to be home for...a while.

@Brian D - I have a wegman's booze story for another time!

I go to Wegmans fairly often but I'm still always astounded by its bounty

Grabbing my cart as I entered the store, a man ran up to me yelling "END OF THE WORLD, MAN! END OF THE F'N WORLD!"

HOLY CRAP

Made me feel very calm and relaxed.

Yeow

I get lost in that section LizB. I have not been in ages. Not since taught Gtr at School of Rock Princeton . Good booze store options in those square mileages

By the time I got home Tom Hanks had COVID and the NBA was shut down.

I spent all of this year getting food only from farms, a restaurant supply delivery, and less than once a month costco mid day Wednesday, heavily masked trips.

Ha Jon but not so Ha you know what I mean. I started a new job last year on Mar 16. First day. Then like 2 weeks of work from home ... saved the day the new job did tho.

My last show at WPRB and my last day at work- Friday the 13th!!! of March!

I can't wait for our local CSA to start Krista. So so need good vitamin content. Nothing like it.

That's surreal Jon. I remember sending an email to a friend in January about the "situation in China" and buying 6 packages of purell food service spray and a box of n95s. I ended up donating those n95s to Princeton hospital.

Grocery vegs have been surprisingly good tho. But nothing like the CSA offerings.

Time for recess, matey! Ramona and Beezus, baby!

My niece is shady.

OMG, LIZZOBOT!!!!

I agree Brian. I have foraged some good onion grass and fiddleheads. Can't WAIT for the first alpine strawberries

Welcome Lizzobot!

Love fiddleheads!

Princeton Wegmans had them last year!!

David L Byrne is seen as Daby

I hope raspberry picking is a possibility this year. I zero in on that w eagle eye precision. And lots of scratches on forearms ha

Krista, You've got a green thumb! I've seen your garden! You have a sustainable food supply!

the deep purple raspberries are the gems... (Ian screams here)

6 MORE PLEDGES 'TIL OUR GOAL!

Someone called into my show asking what i thought about the situation in china and I was like .... The uighur detention thing? I think that was january.

LET'S DO THIS!!!

I have some ramps in my fridge right now for sauteing tomorrow. I moved to a new place, Lizbot! So I'm starting my food forest over again! So much soil building going on currently, and planting of edible ground cover

Hearing your voice and stories and animal info this past year or so Krista has been a great stress relief. Monday mornings are just not so bad.

None of my actual nieces are actually shady, they are fine individuals and a boon to our citizenry

Bottle that voice and info. Good medicine.

Oh, wow, Krista! Im sure you'll make your yard amazing!

Nu Planet Make a Rising

Ha, thanks Brian. We have 4 acres now, mostly wooded but sadly invaded by the hideous multi flora rose (straight out of fairy tales) and the creeping buttercup

@commie, I watch infectious disease trends as a paranoid hobby, I was telling Abbie to bleach the bottoms of her shoes in November of last year when a massive mystery flu hit Princeton

We just need 6 more for our goal!!

Yes!! 6 more!!! And changing into something beautiful from the gooey year inside the plague chrysalis

@Krista - That rose sounds like the stuff of an old English folk ballad! The briar and the rose! Sweet William is haunting your yard!

Make a Rising - Philly art prog weirdos galore!

Nobody in 2021 flies the Make A Rising flag like our own Lizbot.

I was once in a Make a Rising cover band called MECCA RISING that played these songs with GIANT BALLOONS at the Clark Park Best Fest - I KID YOU KNOW

I KID YOU NOT

I DO NOT KID YOU, I, BOT

Ok, Lizbot- this band is new to me and I am checking them out for sure!

See how the bramble and the rose... intertwine...

haha, thanks, Jon! I miss the Avant Gentleman's Lodge!

Mary McCaslin

I’ve got the jawn diss

I am not ok with diss

I do not want this

I do not want diss

Yet I do flaunt diss

can't hear you Lizbot!

Oh so avaunt, this

Strawberry!!! My FAV!!!

Like the avant ladies lodge

am back for any and all gardening/foraging talk!

The avant gentlemen, methinks,

Jimbeaux! I think Krista is our resident gardening expert DJ!

Are not so much hip, as stodge

I could definitely go for hanging in an Avant Ladies Lounge, Rhesus Lady

Wow sun in Central/Upper Bucks co peaking through the clouds...

Meeting in the avant ladies room

@Alan - Glad to hear it! Love Strawberry Switchblade! Gets me hype!

Be back with real tunes

with REEL tunes!

Jigs & Reels!

5 to GO!!!!!

Hi Jimbeaux! Some fiddleheads are coming up! My seedlings are doing poorly in the house this year, I don't have as nice a window as last year for them. I'm hoping to pick up some cheap horse compost this weekend

The jig is reel

was marveling at fiddleheads while foraging this AM, but just couldn't bring myself to pick them! so pretty. Will try to find some at a farmers market.

now for some NINA. We were discussing in the Chat the other day, Lene Lovich vs. Nina! I prefer Lene, but have lots of love for Nina Hagen and her equally crazy wigs and operatic voice! Saw her in NYC in 2001 and she danced with me & my two friends post-show! She also growled a lot

Your jigs are like a freshly cut fig

Pledge for fiddleheads!

I know what fiddlehead ferns look like and I have eaten them (tasty!) but I know little about them. More about fiddle musics!

I like the cut of your jig

Rhesus, one freshly cut fig, please!

jibs & reels! jigs give me the feels!

PLEDGE FOR FIDDLEHEADS AND I'LL DANCE A JIG LIVE

Just a jigger of jibber jabber

THANK YOU, DON HAMP, for your pledge!

And thank you another Anonymous!

4 more to go!

4!!!!

We can do it!

@krista sometimes you can get manure from mercer county stables for free, but you need to compost/age over the winter to use. been pruning gooseberries & raspberries like mad lately and watching the woods for edibles

I almost wrote Anonymouse...Where's Anonymouse's pledge game??!

And WHY have we NOT heard from Ratatouille yet?!

One freshly cut fig coming right up, it cuts a fine figure, your kit’s a fine pup

LENE - NOT From Germany, or even outside the states! DETROIT!

Rhesus, I'm hearing that in a Scots-Gael lilt!

My lucky number's 4!

Commie, YES!

Classics
