You can give a home to these little darlings in your small DIY pond. Right in that small DIY pond. The main thing is you can't put too many, you can't put too many into the pond too fast because it'll eat up all the food, like the algae and what have you. But uh you want about five or seven snails for a hundred gallons of water or therein. And uh you gotta make sure the pond is at least 24 inches deep so they can get below that there freeze line in and survive the winter. Come on, mother lovers! Come on, mother lovers, don't be out, don't botch this. You gotta plant a little bit and get your get just plant a little bit and you'll be as good as gold with your special Japanese trapdoor snails. Good as gold as well as mother, who starts the show with one of her diaries, and then we we end with her breathing closely and then entering my room to impart wisdom that offers a good deep sleep because that's the way we like to start the show, that's the way we like to end it, because that's the way we do it. But first, the words of mother, a diarrheistry. You wouldn't know this about me if you just booked. But I love football, especially when my team wins. But their offense is so putrid.

Find the joy where joy is found, not where it isn't. I say this to Larry when he starts complaining about his school lunch, and he honestly doesn't seem to get it. He looks right through me.

I'd say he's mendacious, he's condescending and patronizing and acquisitive, callous, miserly, he's hypocritical, petulant, churlish, he's obdurate, obstinate, dogmatic, intractable, I'd say he's inflexible, bigoted, uh I think he's opinionated and muleish he's definitely muleish, mother. He's defiant, uncompromising, he's b he's bullheaded, he's pig headed, he's uh he's he's headstrong, he's pertinacious, he's autocratic, he's definitely authoritarian, he's despotic, he's tyrannical, man, on me dolphin street, on the street of being dolphin on green dolphin street dolphins.

But uh, you'd be wrong if I was talking about instruments, because I'm talking about their vocal cords. Yeah, it was a bunch of singers on that one, that first song of the Metronomes. And then, of course, we had Larry Graham. Yes, Larry Graham, with an absolute jam title. You guessed it! It's alright for the 1975 album.

To research pizza gate. Well, I just really like pizza. I really like pizza, my brother, and uh is it okay if I like pizza? Most Americans I don't like pizza. Sometimes I just don't get how we share the same life bugs and DNA and what have you. Bridges to recovery gave me a lot of skills and uh tools to deal with it with Larry's nonsense. Like this is one skill that I picked up, and this was in a closed session with the staff. And uh it's where you it's where you name it, swear walls where at least I name I name all my favorite Minnesota Vikings receivers in order. And I really do it from uh from the most favorite, and then on down it starts with Ahmad Rashad. You remember him? Yeah! You got Randy Moss and Sammy White and Chris Carter, Anthony Carter, Stefan Diggs, of course, Minneapolis Miracle. Then you got JJ, Justin Jefferson, Jake Reed, Percy Harvin, real exciting fellow, that one. Adam Thielen, kind of a whiner, but whatever. KJ Osborne, and boy, oh boy, I really I just love Jarius Wright. Jarius Wright at the bottom of the list, but uh, there are a lot of receivers, so that's quite a list. That felt pretty good. Goodbye, Larry. Bye bye, Larry. Haha, why don't you go eat your pizza? Larry's beef, I mean, come on, who cares? Come on, come on, are you kidding me? If that song didn't hit you right in the middle section, then I don't I I got nothing for you, I don't know what to say. Before I say anything more, I want to shout out a real special happy birthday wishes to Stephanie over there at Grand Rapids. Yeah, hosting a listening party, and I recommend that more than all your mother lovers have a listening party. Because it's good to be social when you do things and uh don't be you know be by yourself less often and just listen to the show and have a good time. Happy birthday! Oh, I hope you put your finger in a cake or whatever and put it in your mouth. That's what I do on my birthday. Good times! And so that was that was a great Turkish psychedelic we just heard from deep epicrabram or something like that. I don't really know my Turkish is all screary since the accident. But no need to worry because you can always see the spelling of each musician and each song title on our podcast strewn all over the freaking webosphere when you search Mother's Musical Diaries with Eddie and Wiley, search uh SpongeBoby, Apple Fritter, uh, I'm done, whatever, graphics magic, dirty dozens radio, and all them podcast channels. Or you gotta go to our website at podcast.andypositive.com. And uh either way, uh the whole idea is you can listen to all past shows since like a few years ago and check out all the song titles, like I said. Live radio upload uploaded to the podverse every week, mother lovers. All vinyl all the time, unless we say otherwise, and we rarely do. Live radio on 104.1 FMWXRW, River West Radio, where the coffee shop next door closes at 3, where you can walk down the street and see the legendary Dutch ever geared vocalist musician and artist Yap Blanc. And I saw him at the Jazz Gallery a few weeks ago, and I ca I just couldn't believe it. Someone said, Yup Blanc is coming to the Jazz Gallery. And I've about filled my socks, no kids about their lovers. Milwaukee is a pretty amazing place, and pretty pretty, pretty darn amazing. And not only is it home to the greatest radio show on the entire One Planet, but it also hosts some of the greatest artists also from our One Planet, like Okay, also per capita, we must have the most the most and best uh record stores in the nation. I said per capita. And I just got this next beauty four months ago, give or take three, from Irving Place Records. I got it for a handshake and a bag of fries, so to speak, it is Ego Slavia from 1982.

SPEAKER_03 26:42

Hey, Ego Slavia, a post punk new wave band from Washington, DC. The band was apparently called R. E. M. But uh we probably heard of them. But then uh R E the R-E-M, I think they're from like uh, I don't know, Louisiana. They really took off, I I guess. So they so so you you Ego Slavia, they had to change their name to Egoslavia, or rather R E M had to change their name. You get the idea. Great stuff, and I really love that new wave stuff. More new wave coming at you next week, mother lovers, and maybe a little new wave and a no wave crossover or some such. I'm not really sure. Oh, gee, oh boy, look at that.

There are far more upsetting things in that movie. And whatever you're drumming up, like, how about them killing that kid and making crickets and snakes come out of his orifices? Or how about that fella, Dr. Dan Chalice, hooking up with Ellie Gimbridge, the daughter of the guy who got his head pulled apart by a single gloved hand. She's like 30 years younger than Chalice, and she's she's oh god, why she's just so into him. Had sex with him in a dirty motel bed. Are you kidding? Are you even kidding me? Maybe you can sort out your own defamation league there. And something about unlikely sexual relationships in movies where underachieving and mediocre men get to have sex with hot young women who are clearly out of their league. But that's not what I'm doing. I'm picking you. Join the cause. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, when pigs fly. Or even later, like when I come to your meat raffle.

And each show will get a little deeper into the story last week. We heard the chapter headings for chapter seven, which included This is what the chapter headings were Foundos and I planned for Bilbo's escape. I contemplate evil, Rick and Mick devolve again. Foundos buries the underwear, and Eva's words titillate jape and puzzle. Oh, what the heck? What the heck could possibly even be next? The diary of Foundos and me. August 18th. I brushed Fondos' teeth to get some of the grass off. He grinned and grimaced and seemed to like it. Later he begged to go and see Bilbo, and I couldn't say no. Together we walked and talked about how we might free Bilbo. We agreed that he deserved to get out of that store. But I kept thinking about the crayfish. In my pocket, I found an old piece of gum still in its wrapper. Warm and smelling good. Foundos called Dibs. Dibs always wins. Just as we were turning on Kahill, we're we nearly ran into Rick. Hey bleepers, get bleeped! His eyebrows mashed into his eyes. At the mall, Bilbo was in a good mood and doing real damage to his ice cream sandwich. Eva walked past and didn't see me. The light in the fish tanks looked especially chemically neon blues, reds, yellows. I put my hand on the glass and told Bilbo that someday he'll be free to scamper in the forest and climb trees. And none of this will matter. Look at that. Yes, it's Godzilla Lemon Head, Golden Boy 1, and Golden Boy 2. Oh, you're back. Yeah, you're back. You loved you loved dancing last week. Oh, come here.

SPEAKER_03 49:16

Yes, come on, Charles Ming is one of America's greatest songwriters, prolific and creative, and with music that's based in uh the traditional forms and avant-gared. And uh I just love his stuff. You can hear gospel in here and blues, and of course jazz and just American roots, it's so good. Just his his song catalog is really something, yeah, you really ought to check that out. You really ought to check that out, mother lovers. And I was introduced to Charles Mingus by my calligraphy professor, and I was about 20 years old or so, and one day he just said, Hey, listen there, big fella, you look jazz curious, you look like a jazz head. And I said, I don't know, I don't know much about jazz. I got some winton Marcellus. And he said, Yeah, that's pretty good, but listen, have you ever heard Chuck Mingus? And I was like, I I have no idea what you're talking about. Yeah, he said, Yeah, sure. I'm gonna give you a couple albums here. I'm gonna give you Charlie Mingus and Rush and Roll and Kirk. Yeah, yeah, it changed my life. And it really did, and uh that's what a co that's what a great calligraphy professor can do for you. Uh but now Yes! Every week we're gonna play a song from the outstanding album by the Kinks, entitled The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society, specifically the Earwax Triple Album, 2004 release, and I'm not gonna play any of the repeats or duplicates or double dues on the album, just uh just a little heads up there, mother lovers. And last week we played track two from side C of Album Two. Okay, now you just gotta put your put your thumb on your chin and think. You gotta think to yourself, What's next? Just kink about it.

And remember, we we we we're done with the original 15-track mono album, and we're all we're on all the great extra songs, and the singles that they produced during that same era that's part of this triple album of 2004, and that's why you gotta get that album and not the original, because this is all that great stuff like this next tune, Polly.

SPEAKER_03 54:17

I stayed at home. But boy, oh boy, not enough people talk about how great this album is. I know the original was outstanding, but this 2004 release with all the singles and stuff, you know, if I were a music critic, I'd be all over this. I'd write a thesis about it or something. I don't really know, but uh the Kinks with Polly, and it looks like it looks like we got a phone call there. What do we got? Okay, brother lover, we just got time for one last call. We just got time for one last call here, so uh I don't know, make it good or something? Okay, what do you got? Afternoon, Jeff.

If you show if you get some kind of receipt that says you vote, you get the day off, you can go get some ice cream, get some turkey legs, whatever you want to do.

You know, there are lots of things that being a citizen, a good citizen, you say hello to people on the street, you make eye contact, you give everyone the benefit of the doubt. You always you do your best, you leave a tip, you pay the bill, you pay the full amount of the bill, and you know what else you gotta do? You gotta vote. Uh what the heck? I mean, what the heck?
