Experimental #NewWave band #TheHawaiianPups were actually from #NewYorkCity & released only one EP during their much too brief incarnation- their kooky but danceable 1983 track “Baby Judy” was an early Starck fave

Songs that bring me joy that I think you should hear too, because we all could use more joy. #musicsky. RIP #BrigitteBardot . I heard this on #Drdemento many moons ago, and I think of this first whenever I have heard her referenced.

#DrDemento has retired. Best of everything to you, man. Thanks for the joy!
Dr. Demento has spun his final track. The famed radio host known for his offbeat taste—and for helping make "Weird Al" Yankovic famous—has wrapped up a 55-year career with the final broadcast of The Dr. Demento Show, reports the AV Club. Barret Hansen, the 84-year-old Minneapolis native behind the persona, first took "demented" music to the airwaves in 1970, starting at KPPC in Pasadena. Over the decades, Hansen championed novelty and comedy records, introducing listeners to everything from obscure musical oddities to early tracks by Yankovic.

Final show. Thank you, cousin, for telling us!

so, this weekend the great Dr. Demento did his final show. I could write a lot about the importance of his show to me & my friends when we were 12 and 13. there's more to it than "he played funny stuff" and "his show is where @alyankovic.bsky.social got his start." 1/3

May all of his fans pour out a little Fish Head Soup, have a wacky Wet Dream, and schedule a visit to the Diggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota in his honor. And may his Last Will and Temperment include many Boots to the Head for all who said his broadcast was a waste of precious airtime. #DrDemento

This. Freaking. Sucks. The Good Doctor was my favorite part of my weekends during both my late teens and twenties and my 40s. It seems impossible that there won't be any new #DrDemento Shows, even though I haven't been able to listen since he went to satellite radio... #RIP

So so many weird and amazing things came from this man's show. This truly is the end of an era.

Now, off I go to listen to The Ballad of Irving (The Hundred-and-Forty-Second Fastest Gun in the West)

It's the end of an era as we bid a fond farewell to #DrDemento! I first encountered this radio madman in 1980, staying up late on a school night to listen to his insane comedy songs. Download his final show on his website at

It's the end of an era as we bid a fond fairwell to #DrDemento! I first encountered this radio madman in 1980, staying up late on a school night to listen to his insane comedy songs. But he'll live forever online, where you can download hundreds of hours of his show, including his final bow.

I'm still grateful to the good doc for playing my two song parodies, "The Cosby Song" and "Racism Killed the TV Show". You can listen to those shows at the links below (links to the shows are at the top of the page highlighted in green). #DrDemento

October 11, 2025 is a milestone in comedy history. Not only is it the 50th anniversary of the 1st SNL, today is also the final new Dr. Demento show. After 55 years, Barret Hansen is hanging up his top hat. Please go to drdemento.com to hear his all time demented top 40 countdown special.

Here's some good news!

As #DrDemento retires, @reed.edu tells the world it is proud of him.

Barret Hansen's alma mater, Reed College, in its wisdom, has just this week named him recipient of the Thomas Lamb Eliot Award for Lifetime Achievement by an alumnus.

All too easily underestimated, Doctor Demento has been a significant force in spreading appreciation of popular music.

Again I ask: Will a university, perhaps *your* university, award to Barry Hansen an honorary doctorate?

Interesting Fact: the Barnes & Barnes video for "Fish Heads" was directed by the late great actor #BillPaxton (who appears in the video with a cameo by #DrDemento himself) 😉
