HURRAH for being kidney stone free!!!❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Thanks, Teresa! FEELS GOOD

thanks for the shoutout !! have a great show !! AHHH 14 years of recherché!!! happy pride!

Thanks, KAT! Happy Pride! Happy summer!

I love this song

IKR? I could listen to this on loop

Kat, I hope you get to travel this summer!

Happy Pride 🌈 and happy summer to you all!

Hi Christine!

thank ya! actually in Oregon rn with family, which has been sweet!

@Kat- so good! Someday I'll go to Oregon- have friends there

Hi Readie!!! Hi Christine! And Kat, been listening to your show on FM mostly. Keep them radio waves movin'...

Hey Alan! good to see ya! Sun is out now! Throw open the doors and DANCE!

@Readie, we just finished up on a big mega rain storm, but looked and no rainbow from Philly downtown...

There must be a rainbow somewhere! I know in our hearts!

I've seen one several times from Philly, best one was from Doylestown at sunset, the highest one I ever saw!

Coool! Saw one at Niagara Falls- spectacular

Wait! wait!!!! I see one on Readies playlist!!!! I bet you planned thhat!

PRIDE!!!

Haha! Alan YASSS!

finger poppin'!

Hi! Do you guys have a playlist from 6am this morning?

Hi Gabrielle- wprb.com has all the playlists- click on the schedule and look for the early show...not sure who it was...

6am to 7am is the robot dj.... no playlists for that time unfortunately ..

Unless you were streaming and you live in Central Time zone or further West then it may have have been Dave the Obscure show

This Alice is the bombs

Hey, hey Readie!

Hi y'all!

Hi Bo, Brian- sorry guys, I lost my playlist for a bit- tech difficulties!

Good evening everyone

Hi Rob!

Hi Readie! One of the many cicadas I picked up this morning I named after you. I gave them all WPRB dj names.

AWWW, that's so cool, Rob- the cicada whisperer!

@RR, I'd a feeling Orville Peck didn't quite resemble Alice ;)

Hi Rob!

Hi Bo!

Yeah, entering the 14th year of this program...ya never know what's gonna happen! ha ha

There's one the outside of the back screen door. I should see if it wants to listen to your show

Cicadas were in full bloom last week in Upper Bucks @ Lake Nockamixon park. So cool

14 years, wow, that's a long time, Readie!

Hi Rob! I was in Doylestown a few days ago and...No Cicadas!!! But those #%&$@#!!! Ticks Yes so beware Brian!

@Brian D, cool cool cool. They're still going strong here

Go to Nockamixon Alan!

Some of these bugs apparently are covered in a fungus similar to that that's an ingredient in magic mushrooms out in Oregen I believe!

@Alan, that sucks. And there were no cicadas for you :-(

Patti!

@ Brian: At least cicadas don't try to suck your blood!!

@Bo, yep. I usually see it on their abdomen, and I refer to them as fungus butts

Yes, a long, strange trip, it's been! @Rob

Long sleeves, hat, long socks, tick check after hike. Hard to gear up like that as it warms up but ya ticks no fun.

@Brian, I am or was extremely sensitive to Poison Ivy so I stay on the trails and refuse to bushwhack

Lyme Disease is no picnic! Keep those ticks at bay!

But ticks occasionally jump on me anyway. And chiggers

& the fungus psychoactive has very weird effect on the cicada mating habits !

Ya i stay on trails too. No ticks so far

But not mine

G l o r i a! I loved this song when I was in college

Ha! Fungus butts :))

@Bo this morning I saw a headless cicada with fungus coming out of its thorax instead of its abdomen. That was strange. Some bird ate the head and left the body

Wow graphic "nature show" today on Recherché! I love it!

@Rob, smart bird that!

I heard cicadas taste creamy after the initial crunch

@Readie yes, akin to softshell crabs

mmm, don't know if I would eat one, hm

one more bite indeed!

I haven't seen a single one yet!

it's a very regional thing- I'm a half hour from Princeton and I have not seen any

Bo, I hope you do. Or you may need to drive to Princeton or Lake Nockamixon

@Readie, maybe blindfolded I would, followed by a Guinness ;)

They are ALL over central Maryland and Northern Virginia

Next week the temp will bring 'em up!

Now you're talkin', Bo- a Guinness would be mighty fine right NOW!

There's a chocolatier in Bethesda/Rockville/Germantown that has been selling choco-covered cicadas. I should see if they still are and then jet over there

Mighty fine indeed RR :)

Rod's Irish Tavern in Sea Girt, NJ - a nice pint and crabs on the half shell- MMMM!!! @Bo

@Rob, I wonder if they deliver to Bucks Co?

Awe RR, salivating now 8)

me too, you know how hungry I get about now

Bo, I seriously doubt it. Though they are in Montgomery County ... Maryland

@Rob, JK ;)

@Bo, I know :-)

@Rob, can you tell the difference between the sexes ?

40th Anniv of Horses. That makes sense. 75th anniv sounded a bit of a stretch ha

WPRB FM radio waves out to 80 light years....

haha pluto had it’s planet status revoked :(

I was going to say... Venus is still a planet!

@Mark: Earth might be next Oh no!!!

Haha & musk is gonna rule the red planet someday! :)

Is Goofy still a planet?

Aliens came to Earth to demote it as a planet..:)

Didn't Elon Musk and co send a satellite up yonder this week and you'll be able to see it

Yeah, Elon is going to colonize Mars for sure

Oh no- something else for me to search for in the night sky!!!!

@Readie, I've loved this song since first hearing :)

@ Readie: Relax!! no more ISS passes for a few weeks now..

I'm so glad, Bo!

ha & a real funny book was written by neil tyson degreasee about the outrage directed at him by school children when he was at the forefront of taking Pluto’s planethood away - very amusing book :)

Please mute the mic

Oh wow- but weren't you talkin' about an eclipse?

@ Readie: That was on Lizbot's show..

Mr. Rhesus Lady- we are muted...

You mean it happened last night?

I know it was talked about on Liz's show, but isn't it happening next week?

@bo musks starlink satellites r next visible in august /. I think he did launch a new set not too long ago

the morning sunrise eclipse is next Thursday

@Readie: Discussion of eclipse was last night, Eclipse is at sunrise 5:30 June 10 thurs. lasts until 630AM

@Mark, thanks for the clarification!

Yes, Alan thank you for that scoop!

Approx 75% of sun blocked from Princeton area

what direction?

@Bo, I would have to study how to tell the sexes apart. I can tell one of the species from the other two because it is so much smaller

I hope you found your glasses!! East

@Alan 8-))

Oh, now I have to search again- I think I know where they might be...I'll check tonight

@ Bo: Good One!!

haha!

@Rob, got it, I figured size might be the answer.

my guess is this eclipse should b quite the event / everyone get up early next thursday !

@ Readie: I'm just curious of how much media coverage will be, sometimes they overreact sometimes nada!!

Even if it's cloudy I'm getting up 'cause It'll be unusually weirdly dark..

Take a look, it’s in a 📖, a Readie 🌈!

I think I need to check this out!

LIZBOT! Welcome! double++ great to see you!!

@RR, Funky purrfection being felt! :))

@Bo, https://www.cicadamania.com/cicadas/where-will-17-13-year-periodical-cicadas-emerge-next/#species has side by side photos of male and female. It seems like males are wider-bodied

Great show and chat last night!! Loved hearing The Lamb!

Yes, @Bo! in the MIX

Hi Lizbot, I named a cicada after you this morning, before I put it on a tree

@Rob, thanks again!

Sure thing, Bo!

Wprb does play the most fun music, especially you readie!

& it’s a very lovely nite to b streaming this music outdoors / wish prb would broadcast the music from space show during the eclipse

Hey Dude! hiya! thanks, just to shake yer booty to, y'know...

good ol' Rick James

the cactus/antenna postcard sent to mike hunter Is really fantastic

I'll have to check that one out, Mark!

it was pretty close to perfect / the mystery post card person is amazingly creative:)

It was Lizbot who suggested it may be Wilbo? That would be cool...I miss his show!

Thanks, Readie! Fripp & I are listening now. He wouldn’t let me type back earlier because he was demanding head scratches

@Rob- TAKE CARE OF LIL BOT JR!

ha & more rick james funk please !

Awww! Hi Fripp!

I will, Lizbot!

Mary Jane Girls are HOT!!

@Alan, VERY!

and the wardrobe!!!

@RR, YA!

About 5 Million Degrees Kelvin Hot!!

yes they r / Chappells rick James imitation was incredibly spot on

@Read- A couple months ago I suggested it might be Wilbo, but now...my bets are on someone else

you better work! Fripp- I hope your head is bobbin'!!!!

@Alan LOL! :))

@Read, Fripp says Hi (or squawk, rather, but close enough) 🐦

@Mark- "cocang- it's a helluva drug!" LOL

@Lizbot- oh do tell! another theory!!!

@Rob- Fripp (my parrot) requests he eat...er, meet, Lil’ Bot in person 🐦

haha I actually got to know rick for a bit he really was quite the character just like they portrayed him ;)

I wonder if Fripp would like a cicada snack?!?!

@Mark- oh wow, I'll bet he was a fun person sometimes...

@lizbot what does fripp actually eat ? Very curious

haha yes that is accurate he was very fun sometimes!

@Mark, when we first moved into this house, the previous owners had left behind a giant indestructible old fashioned sofa bed that was too big to fit through the doorway, they must’ve gotten it through the 2nd floor window and we weren’t about to attempt that, so we got a few people over and beat the crap outta it was hack-saws and hammers, yelling “F Your Couch!!” Chappelle-as-Rick James-style

@Lizbot, raw, cooked, or covered in choco?

haha just as he did to eddie & charlie Murphy sofa / tbh i really could see him doing that / charlie narrates that skit incredibly/ RIP charlie murphy

@Rob- Fripp likes cicada crudités

@LIZ BOT- I seriously laughed out loud- those boots

@Mark - Fripp eats Harrison’s pellets (basically bird health food cuz just seed alone isn’t good for him) plus raw veggies, millet and fruit as snacks. Grapes are like dessert for him

Mmmm, that’s one deliciously gooey bass

oh yeah, I think that's why I love this so much @Lizbot!

Super bass-o-matic ‘76

there's a bass break coming...killer

I love a nice gooey bassline. Fripp is gnawing my shirt to the beat. This is why I have many holes in my shirts!

Aww so cute!

Lovin' the show RRRRRRRReadie!

here. it is

JIMBEAUX! hey there! thanks!

nice in the headphones...

@lizbot would still love to hear the birds on air some nite if possible :)

@Lizbot, I'll see if I can send some to him

striiiive!!!

@Mark- Trust me, it won’t happen. The budgies aren’t used to that room, so they don’t go in there, and Fripp follows me everywhere when he’s loose, but he is singularly obsessed with chewing through my headphone cords, which he can accomplish swiftly! And he’s a conure, so he doesn’t sing, he just squawks and says a few words over and over again

It would be cool if you recorded an ID with Fripp! @Lizbot

@Mark- MAAAAAYbe some night I’ll let him in for one mic break, but it WILL be chaos. He will interrupt me every other word when he isn’t busy severing my 🎧

haha I remember u saying the ruckus he could cause esp w headphones :) they must really b so much fun

This 🐦 demands all attention be focused on him

chaos is good radio, but not equipment destruction!

There's a motif in this Gloria Gaynor song that reminds me of a song that I can't place. Does anybody hear it or know what it is?

If you want to hear “I love you” 500 times in rapid succession, plus “baby” and a bird making a kiss noise, than I guess I gotta give the people what they want

great fun show RR hope everyone gets outdoors it really turned into beautiful evening

Brian D would know if anyone...@Rob!

I'm going out after the show!

thanks Mark!

Thanks Readie. I guess the cicadas have captured him though

yep

He also says “go potty,” which I believe violates FCC regulations! 😂 It’s a command he knows but of course he heard it enough that he learned to say it and tries to turn the tables on me.

@Lizbot, Fripp sounds charming (except for the headphones)

Haha! not sure if that's a violation...but I wouldn't chance it lol

@Rob, he is a charmer, but he is jealous of anything that draws focus away from him, and I have to ignore him when I’m doing radio. Instead of being on the air, he listens to me over the air downstairs. He’s currently sleeping on me.

Aww Fripp

I want to go outside, but bird snoozing

He goes down the shore with me and watched seagulls on the screened in porch, which is great fun for him, but we have no screened in porch here. Otherwise, I’d take him outside

OOOOH, SNAP

My high school years, this song!

cool

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-lite

Not that I miss high school, but this song never ages!

oh yeahhhhhh

Readie, this song is one of the ways I discovered my older brother had a girlfriend (who eventually became his wife). He went away to camp and came back with this tape, and I thought NO WAY did HE get this! This is definitely from a girl! And I kept pressing him (and intercepted a postcard from said girl) and I was right!

Oh Lizbot- that is a sweeet story! Was he blushing?

To give you an idea of how outside his wheelhouse Dee-Lite was, at that point he was mired in a deep Rush phase, and prior to that had an AC/DC phase.

He smirked and denied it at first. He was mad that I figured it out. He is a man of mystery.

That is true love, for sure!!!

Nothing gets past the 'Bot! Why was that album not purchased by your brother (At the expense of asking a stupid question) :)

@Readie, severe flashbacks now 8!

Okay, don’t give this bird any ideas. I [foolishly] trained him to ring a bell on his cage for treats and he abuses this power. Thankfully, he’s still asleep

@BO- good!!!

@Lizbot- lol that's funny...go Fripp!

@Alan, Dee-Lite was pretty far from anything he listened to at the time! He was purely prog

MORE COWBELL

@Readie, that's debatable but not now

really, Bo? sorry!

@RR, you didn't go to an all boys Catholic school in Ireland LOL!

LOLOLOL!!!!!

@ Lizbot Thanks... Hey maybe cowbell counts for Grapes for Fripp!

Still like the song all the same :)

@Alan- Another clue: He also came home with a 10,000 Maniacs tape. This camp was in Stockton, and his girlfriend was from Hamilton, so many years later, I went to Thanksgiving dinner at her mom’s house after doing my Thursday show in Princeton

@Bo- co-ed Catholic school in Scranton, PA here!

That's a great story Lizbot!

1 last thing to mention: west philly porchfest is tomorrow/ im guessing it’s gonna b great !

Haha, thanks, Alan

Thanks for the great show Readie. Happy Anniversary!

thanks for a great show!

@Lizbot HI! You could write a book, memories.

@Lizbot what a great story. You are a first class detective

Thank you Readie, the program progression was way cooool Peace!

@Mark- I want to go to Porchfest- I’m usually there- but I have a conflicting commitment. Might make it there, we’ll see

Thank you RR, SUPER Show, peace!

thanks all~!

Thanks, Readie! 🌈 ♥️

peace!

thanks Liz!

All chatters, you righteous ones! thanks again!!!
