Hey there earthlings! The show, of course, is a recording. But I'll be here this afternoon to field your comments, questions, propositions and suppositions.

Day Job Rob
Pretty groovy so far! And after peaking ahead I’m looking forward to the rest.

1:21 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey there Day Job Rob! It's a crazy ride today, but I hope you enjoy. Good to have you on board here!

1:23 PM, January 17th, 2021
Bis-qik
Very cool Sunday afternoon loungey set Rob!

1:41 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Bis-qik! Loungey and slightly unhinged. All part of the festivities at This Island Earth today. Thanks for listening!

1:45 PM, January 17th, 2021
peebee
Perfect for fixing a cranky fridge and mopping kitchen floors! Will there be any beats or grooviness though ?! ... oh ...

2:01 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Well, now, peebee, I do make it a personal mission to fill your Sunday afternoon with beats and grooves, so there's that. About your cranky fridge and floors, I can do nothing. Other than provide you the soundtrack.

2:03 PM, January 17th, 2021
?
appreciating this! Was it on Red Axes', or the track before, the voice saying that India was fully Hindu 1000 years ago before invasions by Islam etc -- I wondered, what about Jainism? Maybe others too

2:43 PM, January 17th, 2021
Heavy Ben
Nice to hear the latest from the ever evolving Tenderlonious. Great selections, Rob B!

2:44 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey ?! Welcome. It was Red Axes. Your question is a valid one. I'm not sure how long the Jains have been around, or even whether they're homegrown to India or arrived from elsewhere. I also can't vouch for the reliability of the narrator on that track! But India's a big country. I'm sure one can find examples of other faiths in various regions, depending on how far back one is willing to dig.

2:47 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Thanks, Heavy Ben! I have to admit that this new record is the first Tenderlonius I've been aware of. I need to dig into his past stuff.

2:48 PM, January 17th, 2021
Shubham
What’s playing now

2:59 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hi Shubham. This is Omniversal Earkestra. A Berlin-based big band that got hooked on Mali sounds.

3:02 PM, January 17th, 2021
peebee
JEEPERS! Just looking ahead a bit. Dollar Brand + Don Cherry + Carlos Ward!! What could *possibly* go wrong!! Very cool shit today Rob. Except for the lack of beats or grooviness, and and tendency to "Easy Listening" of course q;^)

3:26 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Thanks, peebee, but we might not get to the Don Cherry business this afternoon. A wormhole has appeared in the fabric of time, and currently hour three is another hour two.

3:27 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
The chronology has become unstuck!

3:28 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
I'm mellllllllltttttttinnnnngggg

3:31 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
oh, now, wait: we're back on track now. I think!

3:35 PM, January 17th, 2021

"Billy Pilgrim had become unstuck in time."

3:40 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
What are you talking about? Everything is FINE!

3:42 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
I just lost my composure for a second there. Keep calm and carry on!

3:43 PM, January 17th, 2021
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
But the wormhole consumed a few precious moments of sound, so for those of you who, like peebee, were anxiously awaiting the Don Cherry set, check into the On Demand version. It's all there, frozen in the past!

3:57 PM, January 17th, 2021
oh no, not peebee again
Aaaaaaah! Community radio....... Gotta prove to not be robots on a regular basis....... ;^)
