Up, up and away... ask me anything or ask me nothing

... or simply drop a line... hope all are staying sane (sic) in what might be described as insane times... insane being somewhat subjective... or is it?

6:06 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
Still sane here or at least not any more insane than usual

6:13 PM, May 16th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
I know some of you are cooking while this airs... feel free to share your basic menu... what's alimentary and pairing well with tonight's radio?

6:16 PM, May 16th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Wally. Your particular insanity is insanely non-insane...

What's in a long weekend, when weekends are lost in a (admittedly, temporarily) endless stream of bygone (waylaid?) routine and perspective?

Hi Steve, last night I made Greek food (leftovers for today) and I am keeping sane by watching British comedy shows.

6:30 PM, May 16th, 2020
Jeb
Who's dead this week? Could be a show.

6:36 PM, May 16th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Theme music, Jeb: JIm Carroll's People Who Died?

6:37 PM, May 16th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
A, there's always leftovers with Greek food... often even better the next day... any Fawlty Towers in your British comedy show watch?

6:43 PM, May 16th, 2020
A
Absolutely, the power of leftovers. So far, I am balancing old Monty Python sketches and a fairly recent series called Fresh Meat. I will definitely watch Fawlty Towers after.

6:50 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
Did you hear that Phil May from The Pretty Things passed away

6:58 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
Yes Greek food leftover is always enjoyable 👍

I've owned that Show Stoppers 45 since I was a kid. Don't know who gave it to me, but I never got rid of it. Great song.

7:00 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
I spoke too soon as you just played The Pretty Things

7:13 PM, May 16th, 2020
Steve Kirkland (host)
Wally, here's a great video of the Pretty Things c. 1974https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjtXt6JNH40

7:17 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
Thanks Steve, will check that video out 👍

7:18 PM, May 16th, 2020
Wally
Yah! It's the Woog Riots 👍👏👌

Jeb, a 45 played on a portable record player was an event

I"m stuck in a Zoom meeting, I'll have to listen back. Keep up the good work!!

By the way, I'm eating the remains of a Indo-Hakka dish, first time I ordered out in ages.

7:56 PM, May 16th, 2020
A
Nothing beats Indo-Hakka. Have not had Hakka cuisine in ages.
