Congratulations to Tom, and really congratulations to all the FOT and everyone who gave time and money to the cause.
I always remember the plea that Tom made one year, that as unique and special as WFMU is, the Best Show is unique and special within that framework. Did somebody say validation? This marathon has been amazing and Tom has every reason to be proud of the show and the community he has built, as do we.
Congratulations Tom, and thanks for all you do. Congratulations everybody, this board is a special place.
-
Congratulations all around! I'm proud to be a part of this.

Glad to be able to help WFMU make the end times happy times.
-
Congrats Tom, Mike and everyone else involved! May you finally be able to walk with pride through the corridors of WFMU!
I love you guys, and I ain't ashamed to say it!
-
Ted Leo rules.
-
Amazing! Nice work in the phone room, Jason! And all hail Tom!
-
I'd like to personally thank everyone who pledged. You surpassed my wildest expectations. This is a remarkable radio show with an equally remarkable audience and I'm so proud to be a part of it.
-
More photos, anyone?

Killer show. I was on the edge of my orange crate for the entire thing. I was so amped-up, it took me hours to come down and finally fall asleep.
It felt good to be a small part of the night's success, and winning a prize-cozy prize just put me over the top. So much fun it completely took away the sting of losing money.
Bully for FMU and congratulations Tom. You can now leave for XM Satellite Radio, confident that you made your mark.
P.S. I love the T-shirt idea, although I hope wearing doesn't compel me to constantly explain the irony. I just know I'll be mortified when people assume I'm a Scarface fan.
-
Congratulations to everyone involved. Hearing the pledge totals grow and grow with each marathon since I've been listening has been amazing and gratifying. The show's early naysayers and critics are now on the losing side of history, as my hero Sean Hannity would say.
-
I couldn't listen live last night but I called my pledge in. I'm looking forward to hearing the antics on the podcast. I don't know if my pledge message was read but I dedicated my second pledge to Mike and Mel. Thanks guys!
-
In class, supposed to be working, so I'll just say quick:
FANTASTIC WORK EVERYONE!
Amazing stuff all around.
-
congrats all sadly my message did not get read and it was a shout out to our favorite film critic B Buster:
STROSZEK FOR LIFE
-
I think Psue talked more than Tom did last night reading all those pledge cards.
-
Didn't know what to expect last night when Flamin' Floyd came in like an Uncle in a Santa Clause outfit. Was a great show, one for the vaults. Congratulations Tom and WFMU!
-
The Flamer from Frisco made me laugh so hard I woke up one of my housemates.
"I've been doing this for the double-nickel, that's twenty years"
-
That Blue is a great device for dispensing with guys like The Gorch and the Flamer who come on strong but out-wear their welcome.
Congratulations Tom! Who woulda thought back in the days of '02 when I first started listening that this show would the phenomenon it is today. Hero!!

"The Internet; that thing for shut-in's" - Flamin' Floyd from Fresno

I got the bastard hellflu yesterday and spent the entirety of last night waking up every twenty minutes in a cold sweat. I'm the sickest I've ever been. And this thread is like chicken soup for me. Or at least 7-Up and soda crackers.
-
I called my pledge in, but couldn't listen. I also couldn't think of any inspiring words for Tom. But I'm sure there were plenty of those.
I cannot wait to hear the show!
-
Awesome Marathon, Great Job!

Nice follow-up, but they claim it all went down in "New York, NY"! No! The magic happened in JC!
EDIT: Ha! They just fixed this!

We shouldn't have to check out the shovel to see photos of the show!

"Last night, Tom Scharpling and his Best Show on New Jersey/New York radio station WFMU . . . "
New Jersey/New York? Where is that? Midway through the Holland?
-
It also features the egregious "FOTs."
-
We should be flush with accomplishment.
And customized jokes, no less. It's like a my Camero had a racing stripe run down the side!
-
I only heard the last 30 minutes, but I agree, it was an inspirational show. My son and I gathered around the computer to hear the magic.
What's long brown and sticky? A stick! Hahaha. And the finale was nothing short of TRANCENDATORY. Thanks, Tom. Even though I pledged, I still feel like I owe you one.

I was also particularly thrilled to hear that someone had pledged from Barnet in the UK. That's my neck of woods, AND Jason's too. Represent.
-
That was a ton of fun. What's not to love about anything related to this show?
For those who enjoyed Patton's "Flamer" character but were unaware of its origin, rent this. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0375073/)

Hey, I don't post here often (I'm mostly found here: http://bored.knockknockrecords.com/index.php/topic,20961.0.html <--- "Pop Punk" Board you may have heard about on some marathon thank you's), but I agree with the sentiment!
Two amazing marathon shows, I was on the edge of my seat at the end last night (even luring me into an additional $25 pledge). Congrats to Tom and all involved!

Thanks for the pics Slocker. Everyone looked like they were having a great time!
-
Just came to my moment in the sun in the archive, and I especially wanted to thank all the people in the background who so gratifyingly recognized my name (well, my location). You were awfully sweet.

Aw, c'mon, guys. Sorry for the misprints (though I still think FOTs is an okay thing to say) but, it was 2am when we deliriously put that news piece together.
Anyways: big, huge, ginormous thanks to Tom for letting us come down to the studio to cover the show. It was kind of, you know, a ridiculous dream come true. Like basically my last dying wish, except that I'm not dying, I don't think. Really honored to be able to give back to the station, though, if only in the way of a little publicity. Hope we weren't in the way too much!
Also, more to the point: Here are the rest of my pictures (http://www.flickr.com/photos/chocolageddon/sets/72157604053208871/), or the decent ones, at least.
-
Christine, I, for one, am very grateful.
Nevertheless, the once and future plural of FOT is FOT.
-
That link is not functioning. Here's the correct one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chocolageddon/sets/72157604053208871/
Thanks, christine!
-
Yep, just saw & fixed. Thanks Jouster!
-
Great closing shot of the ABBA box.
-
That was some great P'fork coverage - thanks, Christine! Why didn't you introduce yourself??
-
Woe, o, woe is me. The rousing finale of last night's show is absent from the archives.
This is tragic.
-
Yeah, I saw that Sarah. It's not on the beginning of the Small Change archive, either.
-
What happened at the end? I stopped streaming in the middle of something. Heck and damnation.
-
That was some great P'fork coverage - thanks, Christine! Why didn't you introduce yourself??
Oh, just because I was a huge bundle of nerves / am generally brutally shy / was trying not to bother anyone more than I had to. I'm not unfriendly, I swear!
TL, I think you chatted with Matt though, who wrote the news story -- his band opened for yours once!
Woe, o, woe is me. The rousing finale of last night's show is absent from the archives.

This'll probably make it to the podcast though, no?
-
Both Marathon shows were truly EPIC.
A blast to listen to too. How often can a person say that about any fundraising endeavor??
-
Well I am glad I listened live if its not archived.
-
Wow, on SSD Ken just said the show made $53,000 last night. He and Andy are completely demoralized. It's terrible.

Those guys need a new theme song.
-
Andy is now forced to "live in Tom's shadow". Tom called in a pledge just to rub it in. Great stuff.
-
"Tom walks through the station like a colossus."
-
The Finale IS actually archived at the front of Small Change's archive, just put this url into real player:
rtsp://archive.wfmu.org/archive/ND/nd080304.rm
There ya go.
-
You're a hero, Jixby.
***
I can't believe this! My signal cut out just as Andy was being water-boarded. I caught the undeleted expletive, however.
P.S. I'm editing a book right now about torture, so it's sort of horrifying to hear this. Maybe I should be grateful--except the signal is back now.
-

An F-bomb just got dropped on the air during Andy's waterboarding. All pleadges will be in vain once the FCC starts with the fines.
-
Will the station actually get fined for that? I'm sure it's happened before, but I was curious when I heard it happen since I was listening live. I guess nobody got to the button in time...
-
The chance of them getting fined is probably very, very small, but isn't completely non-existent.
-
Thanks, Jixby for the tip.
I've made an mp3 and am listening a lot. A LOT.
Patton's deadpan delivery of the lines - stellar.
-
I'd like my FOT name changed to Steve McQueen With a Skull Face but I only pledged at the Rapist level :(.
-
I'm only a Honkey Lips... :-\

Shouldn't that be Racer level?
-
Great show! Congrats, all.
If I understand it right, 7SD will probably get away with the F-bombs as long as they didn't talk about fucking. That is, "fuck" as an exclamation is not as verboten as "fuck" as a verb. It has to do with indecency vs. obscenity, or something like that.
-
The FCC will leave it alone and probably won't even know it happened if there aren't any complaints filed and I highly doubt there will be.
-
Blog updated. I mean, not as many people will look at it as Stereogum or Pitchfork, but I like to do what I can.

But didn't somebody end up getting fined when Bono said used "fuck" as an expletive that time? I think the FCC applies the rule as it chooses, and if it wanted to screw FMU it could use Andy's exclamation (which was very reasonable under the circumstances) to do so.
But it probably won't.

I think the greater issue is that, if a terrestrial listener heard by chance and decided to complain, even defending against the FCC would place a huge burden on the station. You're right that the rules are vague for a reason, I bet so that the FCC can be used as a bludgeon when convenient.
I think something this happened a little while back on Coffee Break for Heroes and Villains - Noah played a CD that hadn't been marked as unsafe for radio, just barely missed the dump button after an F-bomb was dropped, and some jerk in West Orange or somewhere filed a complaint, even after receiving an apology from Noah and the station. But everyone seems to think it will all blow over.
Oh, back to the topic - I love Tom for raising almost six figures for WFMU, but I also love Bronwyn C. for getting all excited over breaking the $4k mark for the first time ever. The disenfranchised have a home!

Mad props to any DJs who manage to surpass their previous record. It's all good for WFMU. It's necessary what with the ever-present specter of inflation hanging over their heads. I love Bronwyn's subtle, easy-going style, but it is quite a contrast to Tom's manic energy during the marathon. I feel she has the potential to break five figures by taking it up a notch.

The FCC has lost big recently in court when it comes to fleeting expletives. That's why they're going after other kinds of targets now-- butts. I'm just a law student, but I'd pro bono the hell out of any work defending FMU before the FCC.
The current FCC has only a few months of life left in it. I'd hope that Martin & crew are too busy sending out resumes to worry about harassing a freeform station.

Congratulations to everyone! The pledge show was quite a hoot! Nothing like the pledge shows we are subjected to here.
I was happy Patton called me a drunk covered in cheese. Anyone else get a comment from Patton or Tom?

Yesno, if only you had said "pro bono the fuck out of etc.," it would have been perfect.
That quote was actually Sarah, though, not me, just to keep things straight.

Duh. I didn't even see the bono/Bono connection. I'm frankly not sure if I'm pro Bono.

This has been bugging me, not because it's a particularly bad thing, but at one point during the show (1:42:00 on the podcast), they read a pledge from Brian from Brooklyn (just like me, named Brian and from Brooklyn): "Glad you liked my poster design, Tom"
Problem is, t'wasn't me. I don't know many FOTs personally, so I am utterly confused who or why someone would do this. Or maybe there's something I missed??
Askin' for clarity,

Y'know, the same thing happened to me (almost). Someone named "Christopher from Cranston, RI" pledged a mouse. Not me!
okay, maybe there are more than one Christophers in my town and I'm just being egotistical. It's more fun to think that there might be FOUL PLAY afoot.

There must be an egotistical strain among FOTs. The first week, I noticed a certain "Mason from Buffalo" was named just moments after my pledge card was read (I'm Mason from Ottawa). When I pledged again, I considered writing a message to him on my pledge card. Essentially as an attempt to call him out and start a feud. The phrase "There can be only one" played over and over in my head.
Then I thought better of it. I don't know the guy, and judging by the fact that he pledged I'm sure he's a an upstanding young man. The Best Show is a big, beautiful umbrella and underneath there's room for everybody.

My egotism had to do with my town, not my name. Whenever someone called from Maplewood, I was like "I'M from Maplewood. Maplewood is MY town. Step off, son!" But then I remembered that we were all raising money for the show and I hung my head in shame.

yeah, but that's one of the fun parts of the marathon -- hearing that there are other members of the disenfranchised in your same town (or consequently, places you've USED to live in). I live in Nutley and heard at least three people from there when they were reading cards. Damned if I ever see them walking the streets...
I guess that's why we're getting t-shirts -- it's like our own piece of identifying flair.
-
Yeah, I spent a while going through a couple dozen archive shows over the last several months, and I noticed after a while that nobody from Minnesota ever called in. Hearing all kinds of people from Minneapolis/St. Paul throwing in their pledges was a nice revelation.

It's the complete opposite for me: As far as I know, I'm the only Arkansan to pledge to WFMU in 2008. I didn't hear any other Arkansans pledge during Tom's shows, and I'm the only pledge from Arkansas on the Marathon Map. I realize this is a small amount of all the pledges, but still...
I think I'm about 15% Proud Of Myself and 85% Disgusted By Everyone Else. Way to live up to your reputation, Arkansas. Flyover state for life!
EDIT: Maybe I should've checked the Marathon Map before I posted this.

If I find out that there's another guy named Jason living in Brooklyn who listens to WFMU, I'm going to be pissed. Especially if he's a secular Jew, struggling writer, and non-tenure track professor.

It looks like every state except Wyoming represents.
I've spent a little bit of time in Wyoming. Frankly, those people should have other priorities for their money than donating to WFMU. Like, saving up to move out of Wyoming.

The pledge map's not up to date. At least, I am not on there. Can I keep my money?

What kind of super caller would that make you?
Seriously though, as a former college teacher myself (who left to sell out in big business), I sort of feel like we should be pledging to you! Trust me, brother, I know the pain!
-
Congrats Tom, Mike and everyone else involved! May you finally be able to walk with pride through the corridors of WFMU!
I love you guys, and I ain't ashamed to say it!

Wyoming has pulled through! All 50 states are now represented as having donated to WFMU.
I told a friend who has worked for the local community station about WFMU-- which he had not heard of-- and its level of national and international support, and he was flabbergasted.

I can explain this. That was Brian Palmer, a friend of mine who Tom knows from AST and who has called the show before. Tom mistakenly mentioned him as being the one responsible for the poster a few shows back (although he corrected himself on the air), so Brian P thought it would be a laugh to jokingly take credit where it wasn't due. The problem was, I don't think they read his last name when reading his pledge, so the joke fell completely flat. He didn't mean any offense, BMW - he's a big fan of your work, as am I!

congrats all sadly my message did not get read and it was a shout out to our favorite film critic B Buster:

I swear I heard STROSZEK FOR LIFE.
I only regret that when I pledged I did not make my message "BRING BACK WOODSY!"
-

I regret that I didn't get to send a message with my pledge because my phone was sucky and I had to yell all my info at Associate Producer Mike.
I also regret that I did not pledge more, for now my profile has the word "Rapist" underneath it. Steve McQueen With a Skullface is much cooler.
