BLACK LIVES MATTER 2028: This show features more than an hour of great Demented music and comedy from artists who happen to be Black. From Bert Williams and Cab Calloway to Richard Pryor and Sir Mix-a-lot, the great ones are out in force. First of two parts. (Note: On the Pryor track he tells why he dropped the N-word from his act; in the process, he speaks the word several times. It is the last track in the show). Jul 11, 2020

PSEUDONYMS 2012: Nearly all of the new songs and parodies that came in this week, and well over half the requests, have been for songs, old and new, that somehow relate to COVID-19 and especially the enforced "social distance" or whatever you want to call it. We are living in historic times! This show begins with a half hour devoted to that. For the rest of the show we move on to more pleasant territory with "Surprises in Disguises," songs by artists recording under pseudonyms Mar 21, 2020

HAWAII 2008: Today I have a tropical treat for your February - demented tunes from Hawaii and other balmy climes. We also have another de-mo-mentous Year in Dementia, a few songs for Washington's Birthday, and I'll discuss two, that's two brand new books about "Weird Al" Yankovic!
(note: the fifth song in the show has a four-letter C-word which is very nasty in the USA, but less so in England, and is specifically used in the British context, which I explain after it plays). Feb 22, 2020

COMEDY HISTORY 2004: Since 1994 Dr D has given talks on comedy and music history almost every year at his alma mater, Reed College. This show features an adaptation of one of those, a survey of 20th Century spoken comedy on records, sketches and standup (and a couple of songs). Plus "A Year In Dementia" (1973), the Demented News, a short tribute to Terry Jones, and more. A few F-words toward the end, and a few ethnic slurs typical of the times (but no N-words). Jan 25, 2020

2002 RADIO MORNING SHOWS: A topic we haven't covered before - Demented Hits from Radio Morning Shows. There've been a ton of them - "The Devil Went to Jamaica," "Squirrels" and "We Love Barney Fife" for starters. Some surprises too. Our historical recap of The Years of Dementia reaches 1971 - an offhand guess I made that year about the show's future would come very true eight years later. Jan 11, 2020

NEIL INNES TRIBUTE 2001: We lost some good people over the holidays, including Neil Innes, co-founder of the Bonzo Dog band, who also provided lots of music for Monty Python and the Rutles among many others. Dr D recorded a 55-minute interview with Neil in 1994, and it's all on this show, the first time it's been heard since then. This show also has a tribute to Don Imus, and the debut of an exciting new feature celebrating the show's 50th anniversary. (Note: the survey of Demented hits created for radio morning shows has been rescheduled for Jan. 11th). Jan 4, 2020
