- TONIGHT: "DEMENTIA REVOLUTION" CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!

It's been a while since I've done a regular episode of "Dementia Revolution", but with Ken needing a night off, I figured it was a good time to hop back on the air and spend some time playing some of the best Christmas & Hannukah comedy music of the 21st Century! So tune in to Dementia Radio at 8 pm CST, and join in the fun, as well as listen to this week's FuMPcast recorded live on the air!

To listen live, just take whatever audio program you
use to listen to streaming audio online (WinAmp, iTunes, Windows Media
Player, RealPlayer, etc.) and have it play the following address:
dementiaradio.org:8027 . If you need more help tuning in, visit
the Dementia Radio website, dementiaradio.org . Dementia Radio
can also be heard on Roku.

- LUKE & CARRIE'S BAD RAPPORT

Episode #076 - I'm An Idiot (For Christmas)
'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was writing a description for this episode as a parody of "'Twas The Night Before Christmas'" so just shut the Hell up. In this episode, Luke tells us about going to see the hilarious stand-up comedy of Chris Hardwick of Nerdist show fame, Luke has some new Caricature stand stories, and Carrie tells us about some of her favorite Christmas music. Speaking of which, this week's episode is super-stuffed with some of Luke's favorite Christmas & Hannukah comedy tracks of the 21st Century by the likes of Cee-Lo Green and the Muppets, Patton Oswalt, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Spongebob Squarepants, Denis Leary, The Foremen, Jonathan Coulton, Eric Idle, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Adam Sandler, Lou Monte, TV's Kyle, Flat 29, Paul and Storm, & The Nick Atoms. And I heard him exclaim as he flew out of sight, my birthday is in January, so go buy me more presents, dammit! Episode length: 2:28:47

- DEMENTIA RADIO INDIE GOGO FUNDRAISER - now with REWARD PRIZES!
www.indiegogo.com/dementiaradio

The website for the 24-hour online streaming comedy music station "Dementia Radio" has long been in need of a major overhaul. Meanwhile, web programmer Devo Spice found himself suddenly unemployed and looking for freelance web work. So "Blasted Bill" Putt, founder of dementiaradio.org, decided to start a fund raiser that helps two entities at the same time! The purpose of this new Indie Gogo campaign is to raise the funds to pay Devo Spice to overhaul DementiaRadio.org! Some of the new features the updated website will have include: a database of all songs played with links to purchase those songs and request them for "The Dr. Demento Show" & the MMT20, ratings, keyword list sorting functions, pages for individual shows, staff, and DJ bios, integrated podcast pages, current song playing display, pirate cast button for DJs, a Dementia Radio App, and more!

Some reward prizes have recently been added to the campaign. One of them is an exclusive download album of 8 tracks that are either very rare or have never been released anywhere else before! Contributing acts include the great Luke Ski, Cirque du So What?, Carrie Dahlby, Devo Spice, TV's Kyle, Insane Ian, and Carl Hatmaker. You can get that for a $20 donation, estimated delivery January 2013.

Their goal is to raise $4,300 by January 4th, 2013. Right now they have olny raised $525. So if you have the means to do so, please donate something so we can help Devo Spice and help Dementia Radio! And please spread the word to your comedy music loving friends online! :D

- "WHEN YOU WISH UPON A DEATH STAR"...
Available for $0.99 at www.thefump.com

... #1 ON DR. DEMENTO'S TOP TEN FOR NOVEMBER 2012!!!

I am incredibly happy to report that not only did "When You Wish Upon A Death Star" make "The Dr. Demento Show's" Top Ten for November 2012, it hit #1! That means it will probably make it onto the Funny 25 of 2012, somewhere in the bottom third! Wow! It's like deja vu from "It's Good To Be The King" in 2010! Thank you so much to Dr. Demento and to all of his fans and my fans for giving the song so much love and support! If you'd like to request for him to play it again, you can do so here: drdemento.com/request , but all the shows leading up to the Funny 25 will be all Christmas & Hannukah music. So it's a festive time to listen to "The Dr. Demento Show"! There's a new epsiode posted every Saturday morning at drdemento.com/online.html !

... Still image video posted to YOUTUBE for easy online sharing!

I have begun working on a proper music video for "When You Wish Upon A Death Star" similar to the one I made for "Marvel Poppins". It's going to take me quite a long time to finish it, so it won't be done until sometime in early Spring 2013, I hope. In the meantime, since YouTube is the world's most popular place for people to hear new music, I have made a static image video of "When You Wish Upon A Death Star" and posted it to my YouTube Channel. Here is the url for it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pv3w6o6z5HI . So please share this link with your friends online via Facebook, Twitter, and whatever online social media is YouTube friendly. The song will only be a free download at the FuMP until the end of the day on December 10th, so I hope I can get the word out to thousands more people about it between now and then. Thanks again, loyal fans, for helping me spread the word about this new song.

- BIG MARSCON 2013 NEWS!

At long last, I am ready to make some announcements regarding the Dementia Track at MarsCon 2013! This news is so exciting, that I'm not even going to type it out here in text. Instead, I'm going to give you links to a YouTube video of the announcement, and an MP3 version as well:

Video version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hseUWi5yPyo
Audio version: tinyurl.com/MarsCon2013promo1

Those of you with radio shows, internet shows, podcasts, etc., please download the MP3 of the announcement and play it as a promo on your shows. It's 2:15 long, which for me is pretty dang short.

In any case, start getting excited people! MarsCon 2013 happens March 1st through 3rd at the Crown Plaza Hotel & Suites in Bloomington, MN. Go to www.marscon.com to register and for more information about this awesome sci-fi/fandom convention, and go to marscondementia.com for forthcoming updates on the MarsCon Dementia Track: the BEST WEEKEND EVER in COMEDY MUSIC!

- "STEALING LIKE A HOBBIT" MUSIC VIDEO FINALLY ON YOUTUBE!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWHbX6kKu5s

You may not have heard about this, but "The Hobbit" hits movie theatres in 2 weeks! Well, part one of what is now a trilogy hits theatres on December 14th anyway. This seemed like the perfect excuse for me to get off of my old-media, outdated-business-model butt and finally post my music video for my most popular song of all time, "Stealing LIke A Hobbit" to YouTube. At the end, I added a plug for my new piece "When You Wish Upon A Death Star" at the FuMP, in the hopes to give that some more attention as well. So as you and your friends online get hyped for part one of "The Hobbit", please help get me some publicity by sharing "Stealing Like A Hobbit" with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, and anywhere else that nerdy web traffic is generated. Thanks, and enjoy your second breakfast!
