||||||||| Catherwood enters with Cease close behind, mumbles something about disrupting his 8:00 PM tree-stunting plans, and runs off to the Aviary.
Cease: Hey Tween, when I click the stream it's some short NASA thing
Rufus_T_Firetween: Yes, there's not going to be any more warm-up music
Cease: aha!
Rufus_T_Firetween: You're listening to RFD programming
Cease: no more warm ups from now on?
Rufus_T_Firetween: from now on, RFD will be playing a pre-recorded file of the show
||||||||| Catherwood trudges in at 8:00 PM, dragging Deputy Dang by one leg and asks "Can anyone vouch for this bozo?"
Cease: I've begun work on mixing the Beatles Xmas messages with Firesign, etc.
Deputy Dang: Has anybody seen my grape?
Rufus_T_Firetween: right, it's going to be all done from RFD now so if I can't be here the show will syill be played
Cease: Will try and have finished show for you by next Tues.
Rufus_T_Firetween: OK
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "Close the door, and the light stays on!"
Cease: It's right here, Dang.
Cease: thatr'
Deputy Dang: Oh, is that my grape?
Rufus_T_Firetween: Yeah, I need to have the show file made as soon as I can so I can send it to the Program Director so he can play it
Cease: that's great, Tween.
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "May I take your hat and goat?"
Cease: My wife has been using it.
Cease: So we should tune in at exactly 4 (my time) for the stream?
||||||||| Catherwood walks in wearing his pyjamas, yawns, and mumbles "It's midnight here in New York city"...then he falls over and starts snoring loudly..
Rufus_T_Firetween: OK, you should be hearing the show now
Rufus_T_Firetween: Yes Cat
Cease: Here it is!
Rufus_T_Firetween: I'm streaming tonight, but we should start with the automation next week
Cease: hmm, I was cut off, by myself
Rufus_T_Firetween: how schizophrenic
Cease: ok i'll get the Beatles Xmas collage finished as soon as I can.
Rufus_T_Firetween: kewl
||||||||| Catherwood escorts Bottles in through the front door at 8:00 PM, picks up his cues (only slightly scorched), and heads for the billiard room.
Cease: Hi Bottles!
Bottles: Hiyas
Cease: Super Operator?
Rufus_T_Firetween: Hey Bottles, Deputy
Bottles: Hi Rufus & all
Cease: I just used this Spoiltsport bit in a recent collage.
Bottles: Ah, the grating voice of Ralph Spoilsport.
Cease: Did you ever hear or see Ralph Williams, Bottles?
Bottles: No, but I've heard he existed.
Cease: He had dealerships all over the place. I know he did in the Bay area, though originally from LA.
Cease: My dad was his competitor, another Ford dealer in the Valley.
Cease: Johnny Carson used to feature him, as a guest, not an ad.
Bottles: As a guest?? What did he have to talk about besides his cars?
Cease: i guess Johnny found him entertaining. I don't recall any of their conversations but they're probably online.
Cease: Apparently, Johnny but the entire archives of his shows online.
Bottles: Did you ever see Zacherly?
Cease: Harlan Ellison has a great Ralph Williams story.
Cease: what's that?
Cease: Zackery All?
Bottles: He hosted horror movies in New York and Cleveland or Philly or somewhere
Bottles: Had a regal manner and a very dry wit - sometimes. Sort of a vampire type
Cease: don't know him.
Bottles: There are some videos on YouTube.
Bottles: His name was John Zacherley, but before he got to NY they called him Roland, for purposes inknown.
Bottles: The decided his real name was weird enough for the series.
Cease: I thought you were referring to the Firesign flick Zachariah
Bottles: Oh - no.
Cease: although i don't think they really want to admit being involved with that flick.
Bottles: I saw it, but I didn't know they were involved. I don't remember much about it.
Cease: I made a collage out of it. If you're expecting Firesign, it's a major dissappointment.
Cease: https://s3.amazonaws.com/rfd-firesign/cat/zachariah_porcupine.mp3
Cease: Phil Austin's tale of porcupines mixed with bits from the flick.
Bottles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ds3m7NuRLOs
Cease: he looks scary
Bottles: A sample of Zacherly. He's not hilarious, but memorable.
Cease: Viking cheese cloth
Cease: I had an aunt and uncle who lived near oceanside. long ago.
Cease: speaking of Vegas, i just joined a facebook group called freinds of the sphere. quite an amazing structure.
||||||||| Catherwood sneaks into the room, and announces "Announcing 'Beet', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 8:00 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the sitting room...
Rufus_T_Firetween: Yo Beet
Cease: plan to see the inside and its flick when I go there next March.
Bottles: Hi Beet
Cease: Hi Beet
Beet: Evening, folks.
Bottles: It's not a casino?
Beet: Hi, Bottles, Cease, Tween
Cease: https://pursuitist.com/inside-the-las-vegas-sphere/
Bottles: Cease did you get a chance to hear that audio segment I sent you? No biggie if you didn't, but I found it hilarious.
Cease: Thankfully, no casino.
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "He can shout, don't hear you."
Cease: You sent me?
Bottles: Maybe it wasn't you.
Cease: can you re-send?
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood pipes up: "8:00 PM and late as usual, it's llanwydd, just back from Billville."
llanwydd: hows everybody?
Cease: when you go to the sphere link above, click the thing that advances the image. the numbre of astonishing images displayed on the outside of the sphere are overwhelming.
Cease: hi llan
llanwydd: sorry I'm late but I had to watch jeopardy
Cease: i am great. getting closer to completion of my Ukraine play and planning trip to Vegas in March.
Rufus_T_Firetween: Hi llan
llanwydd: I am hoping to go up north in early april to see some friends but also to catch the total eclipse of the sun
Cease: sounds like the lyrics to You're so vain
Beet: Hey, Llan.
llanwydd: I guess I could have said total solar eclipse
Cease: get higher on valhalla than on any other gasoline
||||||||| Catherwood walks up and announces "Presenting 'Elayne', just granted probation at 8:00 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
Elayne: Evenin' all!
Beet: Hi, Elayne.
llanwydd: Hi Elayne
Rufus_T_Firetween: Hi Elayne
Cease: Hi El!
Cease: Once again, we have as many female as male guests here.
Cease: that's too rare.
Elayne: Who? Me, Bottles, and... ?
llanwydd: so when is your next trip to vegas, cat
Deputy Dang: I guest so.
Cease: march 11
llanwydd: thats my problem. I cant tell all the men from the women
Deputy Dang: We aint go no brains on the left!
Cease: that's all, El. Alas. dang, beet and now llan. ok, not quite equal but close.
Rufus_T_Firetween: Vegas should have decent weather in March
Elayne: It's the noms de plume, Llan. I'm the only one who seems to use my real name. :)
Bottles: Phone call,, back
llanwydd: true
Elayne: But in general, these days you can't tell the ACs from the DCs.
Cease: i was there in march this year, and it rained 2 of my 4 days. but i had an umbrella.
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "What about my pickle?"
Deputy Dang: (I'm not really a deputy.)
Bottles: Hi Elaynem Dang and llanwydd
Elayne: Dang it, Dep!
llanwydd: lol, E
Elayne: Good to see you again, Bottles!
Bottles: You too.
Cease: both of you are rather rare here, alas.
Elayne: Cat, I went to the Orlando area for an overnight last month (work related) and it rained the whole time I was there.
Cease: or more accurately, a lass-less ness
Elayne: It's true, I'm rare, but sometimes well done.
llanwydd: the solar eclipse is supposed to be at its darkest along the appalachian trail
Elayne: My heart goes out to poor Phil, by the way. Poor Redford.
Cease: we get A Lot of rain in vancouver. one usually packs an umbrella.
Bottles: At least there wasn't a hurricane, right Elayne?
Elayne: Very true, Bottles!
Cease: indeed, El. what terrible news, so soon after losing Melinda.
Elayne: I about lost it when he said he scattered a few of her ashes on Redford's resting place.
Cease: thankfuly he has a great support network and works constantly.
Elayne: Yep
Cease: going to hawaii with his daughter soon. will go him much good
llanwydd: who is redford?
Cease: phil proctor's cat
Deputy Dang: I just got my commercial driver's license.
Deputy Dang: I haven't driven commercially yet, though.
llanwydd: I see
Cease: so you can drive commercials now?
Bottles: Gonna be a trucker, Dang?
Deputy Dang: yes exactly
Deputy Dang: I doubt it. I learned that they want new truckers to drive the long distance rigs, 10-11 hours/day, 7 days/week, 2-3 weeks at a time. I'm too old for that $hit.
Cease: most firesign fans are, dang.
Bottles: My dad was a trucker at one time
Deputy Dang: So instead, I just have another 8000 in student debt. :-/
llanwydd: I am not too old for that
Rufus_T_Firetween: damn, Deputy :-(
Cease: i've been watching jose andres tour spain with his daughters and getting more and more enthused about going back to spain, befoire i'm too old to travel.
Elayne: Truckers are superhuman. I could never do what y'all do.
llanwydd: biden will fix that,dang
Rufus_T_Firetween: Those do seem like ridiculous hours
Bottles: I don't think I could drink enough coffee to do long hauling.
Elayne: I loved that series, Cat! I was hoping the wife/mom would join them but oh well.
Cease: yeah, it would have been great to see his wife.
Beet: I like driving and I always thought I might enjoy being a trucker.
llanwydd: 3 WEEKS IN SPAIN 3 WEEKS IN SPAIN
Rufus_T_Firetween: Deputy, surely there are outfits who could offer you a decent schedule locally
Cease: i met him in vegas in 2011. that meeting is in act 3 of my last play, Vegas/Egypt.
Beet: Let's all go to Spain!
Cease: starring Tween and Llan among others
Cease: you're going to spain for 3 weeks?
Deputy Dang: Once upon a time, I thought I wanted to drive a bus. That was something that inspired me to get my CDL. Somewhere along the way, I talked myself out of getting the passenger bus license.
Cease: i'm thinking 2 days in Madrid, 2 days in Bilbao, maybe 4-5 days in San Sebastian
llanwydd: No, Cat. That is a song by Gentle Giant
Cease: Probably mid-May
Cease: you werer stationed in Spain, Beet?
Elayne: Dang, I peaked too soon. Next week, all...
||||||||| Catherwood says "8:00 PM, time for SOMEONE to leave!", grabs Elayne by the collar and gives 'em the old bum's rush out the door
Beet: I was 5 months in Andalusia in 1972. Loved it.
Cease: Byh El
Cease: Fumiyo and I spent 3 weeks in
Beet: G'Nite, Elayne.
Deputy Dang: night night
Cease: Spain in 2002 and she went back and did the pilgrimage trek in 2015
Cease: She walked through the Basque country, but basically has no interest in food. I'm going there almost exsclusively for the food.
Bottles: You didn't run with the bulls in Pamploma?
Cease: also want to see some museums in Madrid and Bilbao, but basiclaly, it'll be non-stop tapas tastinbgs
Cease: why would I do that, Bottles?
Beet: Sounds like great fun.
Cease: what a grotestque thing to do. not qiute as bad a bull fighting, but right up there.
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 1 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
llanwydd: whats your favorite tapas, Cat?
Bottles: Because it's there. We did a play about something based on it - about log truck drivers who chase bicyclists in No Cal.
Cease: will do some serious tapas tastings in vegas in march, and then the real thing i n spain in may
Bottles: No one got hurt.
Cease: i'm on the lookout for combinations of vegies, protein and cheese
llanwydd: cheese and wine seems to be the major portion of tapas
Cease: we took the bus from avignon to barcelona and had some white asparagus at a truck stop on the way there. our bodies really craved vegetables, which we did enjoy much in france and italy
llanwydd: cool
Cease: the basques seem way into their cidres and wines so will dive deeply into them both.
Beet: With a nice glass of Spanish sherry. Sublime beverage.
Cease: the origin of tapas is a piece of bread (and later toppings to the breasd) to cover a wine glass to keep the flys out of it
llanwydd: north for cider and south for sherry
Cease: we stayed at a ridiculously beautiful hotel in lisbon and it had a decanter of port thatr was constantly refilled. exquisite port.
Cease: yeah, i think of sherrry more as an ingredient than a drink
llanwydd: any port in the storm
llanwydd: I have used sherry to cook with but I dont think I have ever drank it
Cease: this riff ossman does on apes comes from a conversation we had when i was a kind of ape lobbyist in the mid 90s
Cease: i was the canadian rep for both the orangutans and the great ape project.
Bottles: Definitely a noble cause.
Beet: Heading out. Nice to see everyone. See you next week. G'Nite.
Cease: by beet
llanwydd: Night Beet
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "This is Major Hit in the cockpit of the Enola McLuhan."
Bottles: Adios Beet.
llanwydd: hows the weather in vancouver, cat?
Cease: cood and rainy. had a touch of snow earlier this week. will get much colder and snowier soon
Cease: cold
llanwydd: I miss snow
llanwydd: but I hear we have had our alltime warmest winter this year
Rufus_T_Firetween: Snow is nice when viewed from the other side of a window in a warm room.
Cease: true, tween.
llanwydd: true
Cease: izzard and firesign blend together extremely well.
Cease: hope i can get these mixes to izzard.
Deputy Dang: are there any hand sanitizers or hsnd lotions are marijuana-scented?
Cease: i really try and get these collages to the folks i use in them. not always successfully
Cease: oh, i missed a fucking there.
Rufus_T_Firetween: Don't sweat it
Cease: its so slurred, it's probably not a problem
Deputy Dang: I misses a fucking too. Not sure where. But I miss it.
Rufus_T_Firetween: I'm sure by now the PD knows we're doing our best :)
llanwydd: lol
Rufus_T_Firetween: lol Deputy
llanwydd: I missed one last weekend
Cease: lol
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "Swell pizza!"
Cease: taking all the fucks out of eddie izzard show is serious work. i should get paid!
Bottles: Cease, you could ask Izzard to pay you for it.
Cease: lol
Rufus_T_Firetween: second only to a Carlin concert, I'll bet
Cease: if i can get izzard to Listen to it, that'll be reward enough.
Cease: i saw eddie twice. best 2 shows i've ever seen.
llanwydd: just close the show and they will all exit in single file
Cease: he is a kind of one-man firesign
Cease: saw carlin but it was soon after his wife;s death, so it wasn't very comedic. mostly just angry
Cease: actually, the funniest stand up i've ever seen was jay leno.
llanwydd: yeah carlin got to the point where he wasnt funny anymore
Cease: he started talking, i started laughing, and Never Stopped.
Cease: it was an outdoor venue here in wintry van so I was Really Cold but his hilarirty eclipsed that.
Cease: llan, carline tried to be lenny and did a real good job, minus the opiods, i suspect.
Cease: both went downhill in their lastg days but burned bright and illuminated us all
Bottles: OMG, an outside comedy show in Vancouver I can't even imagine.
Bottles: in winter.
Cease: yeah bottles, we have them. dumb.
Cease: i met a freind last week who i went to the izzard shows with long ago. he told me he'd just learned thatr izzard was just in van. we knew nothing about it, or surelly would have attended
llanwydd: I can see littleor any similarity verween carlin and bruce
Cease: in his autobiography, which i excerpt from in tihs collage, he mentions vancouver.
Cease: apparently, he decided to change hua format, excluding the break in the middle after the van show.
Cease: carlon/leeny both started as very straight comedians, then veered into much more agressive material, ended up more bitter than funny.'
llanwydd: carlins autobiography is more like a fantasy that bruces
Cease: carlin got himself arrested with lenny
llanwydd: than
Cease: i want to read it, llan
Cease: i read lenny's as well as the vast bio in prep for my collage abourt lenny earlier this year
Bottles: I'm reading a book now by Ken Babbs, about his Prankster days with Kesey, Casiday the Dead et al.
Cease: before that, i did a collage about Paul Krassner, Lenny's friend, Alsi a friend of mine
Cease: i'd love to read that, bottles
Cease: i'm immersed in ukrainian books now.
llanwydd: I read carlins in a book strore I dont remember the name but t was about half okes
Bottles: It just came out Cease.
Cease: aha
llanwydd: jokes
Cease: brain droppings?
Bottles: Apparently they were listening to The Merry Pranks of Tyl Eulenberg at one time, which is where they adopted the name Merry Pranksters. A friend of mine name Mary does a Dead radio show, under the name Mary Prankster.
llanwydd: I know I have read that amongmany
Bottles: ,, or whatever Tyl's last name was.
llanwydd: benol
Rufus_T_Firetween: lol @ 'Mary Prankster'
Cease: good to know, bottles. the beats were always very literate.
Cease: the transition didn't go so well into the hippies
Bottles: Till Eulenspiegel
Bottles: 2 distinctly different types Cease, except for Cassady
Bottles: And Ginsberg I guess
Cease: well, neal amid and ginzberg certainly influenced the transition.
Cease: gary snyder too.
llanwydd: the beats had short hair and the hippies didnt
Cease: i can feel that in hunter thompson, and in this eddie izzard autiobi
Cease: long hair wasn'
Cease: a thing in those days. the beatles started it, as i recall.
Bottles: I liked that collage Cease!
Cease: i rmeember seeing them on sullivan and being amazed at their hair length
Cease: which was that, bottles
Cease: i thikn i did more than one with hunter thompson.
Bottles: The Izzard one. I don't care for Spoilsport.
llanwydd: having trouble with the audio tonight but I will check out tonights collages
Cease: this is part 3 of the izzard trilogy, bottles
Cease: 3, 3, 3 collages for the price of None! On Tween's archive
Bottles: Coolness.
Rufus_T_Firetween: I haven't put Cars up there yet, but will after the show

||||||||| llanwydd leaves at 8:00 PM, singing "Oh, I'm just a little fishy, floating in the sea, and there ain't no hook that's smart enough to catch the likes of me..."
Bottles: We'll be running a segment of This Amerikan Life about an Orthidox Jewish family that hosts Christmas for a lonely Christian woman. Hilarious.
Cease: sounds inspirational
Bottles: Here it is. It's the one I was gonna send you Cat. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/archive?keyword=jews%20for%20jesus
Bottles: Compares Hannukah to Christmas, etc
Cease: Thanks, Bottles
Rufus_T_Firetween: The show goes to automation next week folks, so if you tune into the above links before show time, you'll hear whatever is playing on RFD
Bottles: They had to put the xmas tree in the garage, as the father wouldn't allow it in a Jewish home.
Rufus_T_Firetween: no more 'warm up' music before the show
Cease: yes tween, you should announce the change in the show.
Bottles: You'll be posting the right links I'd guess Rufus?
Rufus_T_Firetween: Sounds like a good theme for a comedy, Bottles
Bottles: Alex Edelman delivers it.
Rufus_T_Firetween: What's listed at the top of the page are the new listening links, Bottles
Rufus_T_Firetween: no more /tweeny links as I won't be streaming

Bottles: So you won't be hosting?
Rufus_T_Firetween: I'll be hosting the show, but it'll be a pre-recorded file played by the station
Rufus_T_Firetween: It'll sound just like it did this evening :)
Bottles: I see.That's the way of broadcasting now.
Rufus_T_Firetween: I might not be available on some Thursday evenings because of a new job I have
Rufus_T_Firetween: My Tuesday show will continue to be live
Bottles: Automation used to mean huge reels of audio tape switching from one to another with commercials on cartridges. I miss those days.
Cease: OK, I'll have the Beatles Chirstmas show ready soon and hopefuly someone wil be here to listen to it next Thurs
Cease: is this the dead?
Bottles: Adios all. Thanks Kurt and Cat!
Rufus_T_Firetween: Yeah, from Terrapin Station
Cease: off we flee
Rufus_T_Firetween: Thanks for listening, Bottles :)
Bottles: Love it.
