hello Monday crew!

Oh hey this is a nice surprise. A double desert dose

DJ Captain Ahab!

TAndy! Mr. M! How goes it

MrM!

Unplug that appliance! L0LZ

Hi, TAndy!

Pretty dour this evening but working through that. Hanna's show usually is uplifting for me but this is more like an adrenaline shot. Going from :T into >:)

Hey all. Yay for bonus episodes.

Defrost the refrigerator! What is the new guidelines?? L0LZ

Lol Mr. M, it's turn off the radiator these days however my friends tell me they can't hear it regardless so I'm gonna leave it on and see what happens

Wooo! Radiator Rules!!

And I feel you TAndy, not sure how suitable DC is for monday drudgery, we shall see

Get the blood flowing

No Dice. LITERALLY.

No Dice anywhere to be seen

Have a great show. Nine more minutes of the song I started before you went on and then I can tune in proper!

Fuzzy dice on the mirror of the ship?!?

The only dice I see are the fuzzy dice hanging from my mirror while cruising the dessert

Shoutout to DJ Hanna!

Hoping to hear you next week Hanna <3

oof

Captain Grandparents!

Captain Grandparents doing fine so far!

Will send positive vibes to you all!

Really said to C*vid: "Don't fuck with this Captain!!"

Yo, three days of sludge tho....

Slowly taking over the prb schedule

Dope Smoker >:)

this track has weirdness. missing audio?

oh?

Oh no, the same issue that Brian pointed out maybe.

Sounds fine to me on terrestrial radio. Or at least, an appropriate level of weirdness.

oh is there something going one more generally? I've not seen Brian's comment

Listening online, sounds good to me.

The issue Brian raised appears to be only with shows emanating from the WPRB studios.

Well I looked up lyrics… Repeats “Realize it, Legalize it” that’s all I was hearing tho. I guess that’s correct. The music seemed like it was also missing a layer. I guess that was the style.

Captain Ahab comes to us tonight from Parts Unknown.

Captain I protest this track, it makes me want steak and fries. I already had enough beef yesterday, no more cravings :(

No reports of issues outside studio?

The Weirdoness was MrM.

I concur with Mr M

I agree with both of us

Every time Brian has mentioned it has been from an in-studio show. I've yet to hear it, but I am happy to relay any descriptions to the Tech Director who has access to the studios (I do not).

I’ve registered the issue once. The track was missing music and vocals. Had some instruments and backing vocals only.

If Brian / yourself / anyone else wants to write up a description and send my way I am happy to forward and follow up.

I remember a problem a few months ago involving out-of-phase audio that caused a bunch of cancellation for anyone listening in mono. Is that issue rearing its ugly head again?

Will do if I hear issues again. Would have to look back in chats for details of that past issue.

Thank you, Mr. M.

Thanks you! DJ JonSolomon!

Have a school Zoom at the top of the hour I need to attend but perhaps I can keep my mic on mute and continue to Desert Cruise. Worth a shot.

Headbanging will give it away. Be careful.

There's no escapeing the Dessert

Yeah Mr M's got a point, better just turn off camera or skip the zoom altogether lol

I'm sitting on the floor of a hallway outside a very sad food court so this camera is NEVER GOING ON.

I chortled out loud at all of us

chortle chortle

Jon I'm pretty sure there are deepfake programs that allow you to make a fake head/face with a background of your choice with possible lip syncing. Maybe try that, surprise everything by having your cam set to you @ google streetview in front of the Nassau St. 7-Eleven.

(Only do that for 15 minutes or your virtual cam will be towed by Princeton PD too.)

My friend Ryan did a Zoom background loop of him walking into the room and turning around every 10 minutes so you would see actual Ryan sitting on his couch and then a second Ryan would duck in frame for a moment. It was pretty incredible the first few times it happened.

That's funny as hell

I think maybe he was able to do it so looping Ryan handed real Ryan a seltzer?

Play something heavy if you get the chance.

I would simply have myself in a looped video doing vine dances but a new me is added every 2 seconds for the first 30 seconds. I'll be too busy danceing to answer questions like "How?" or "Why are you like this?"

@Dub, yeah you're right this is too light for a monday evening

this right now is SUPER 🎶🎵

Evening all

We went to one named death of The Fox, they had some excellent coffee there and a cinnamon toast crunch beer. I'll likely drop by next Tuesday, since I'm getting my oil changed tomorrow, amont other chores.

Haha ok Mr M! Will do

Nice! They make some good coffee and coffee beers. I'll be working until 5, but feel free to stop in whenever. Business hours be damned
