Turbojugend Radio - The Podcast

Roos De Baas of TJ Singapore / TJ Goess is back again to join TJR in another TRBNGR album review, namely Sexual Harassment (2012).Partly controversial, we dissect each song of the album, analyze it and pour our personal verbal liquids onto it. Plus, another awesome, very sexual Cream Puff at the end.

On November 19th the world was given notice that Hank von Helvete sadly passed away in Oslo, Norway. This episode is a true tribute to Hanks impactful, larger than life on stage persona, showing what Hank meant to the band during their early days, performing a wild and rather intense gig in Eugene, Oregon, back in the 90s (listen to the live footage, the whole set!). Thank you for everything & rest in peace, Hank.

Mikki Sixx from Turbojugend Salzburg joins TJR to discuss the recent comeback of popularity of Turbonegro´s fantasstic 2007 album RETOX. Tschebesta and Mikki go through all the songs and mix it up with their personal TJ experiences in order to serve the audience a very well reflected COCKtail based upon profound personal and music historical ingredients.

Deathpunk has been the definite style of the first Turbonegro albums. Enter the An*l Babes, their illegitimate Norwegian step-brother who most definitely lived up to all the prototypical qualities of early Turboneger tunes: sexy-funny-violent. TJR picked up the mic and talked to two Babes, Abdullah the Thief and Turd, consequently shoving an overdue history lesson.

For decades, Turbojugend has withstood crises and ups and down with our favorite, go-to band ass well ass personal and micropolitical issues. One topic, however, seems to be reappearing with a rigorous force and a seemingly never ending persistence: is Pineapple Pizza an acceptable thing, should it be tolerated or even appreciated? TJ Radio picked up the slack and made it this episode center topic (well overdue).

Even tough TJ is not a political organization per se, ignoring the current situation in the streets of the USA feels inappropriate to TJ Radio. Especially in the light of our TJ manifesto, that definitely states that we do not tolerate fascist or racist behavior within our group. We decided to take the mic and talk to Black Rage from TJ New London to ask him about his views, based on his personal experiences and knowledge. There are some rather questionable facts about the executive mode operandi revealed ass well ass some more than practical advice given - especially for TJ members who are politically active or are thinking about it.

When it comes to collecting Turbonegro´s audio legacy, no one beats the merits of TJ Satanica´s Max Motherfucker. If there´s a Turbonegro Vinyl World Champion, it´s gotta be TJ veteran Max who talks about old, unknown records, international pressings and the go-to platforms for your well deserved dose of the denim coated, black gold.

Let´s get us re-focused again. Let´s de-isolate for a moment and think of what bring the TJ the most intuitive, natural, curiously naive look onto our faces: a very well designed patch. If this patch even features a wonderfully designed burning church, loyal TJ Radio listeners know: there´s a lot to learn from here, there´s a real MVP cumming, a Most Valuable Patch and his very own story – powered by TJ Jorvik.

When it comes to love, the Turbojugend seems like a super cozy, misty and fruitful darkroom for hardcore gay sailormen worldwide. But how about mingling men and women, sometimes referred to as “normal” relationships, what if a Sailor falls in love with a non-Sailorette, outside of the Denim universe, with a “regular” woman? TJ Brisbane´s Lugswaffe and his lovely sweetheart The Cheeky Butcher talk about the process of falling in love with each other AND the Turbojugend and explain the key elements of entering Turbojugend because of the crazy little thing called LOVE.

For the first time in quite a while, TJ Radio does a Double Dong episode, featuring two topics. First, we talk TJ Safe Harbor, your go-to place for all things dealing with harassment within our Denim community (not the Turbo album) and continue with an exciting lesson of how to get drunk in a very unique bonggy Danish way, powered by TJ Kolding.

In this episode, Happy Tom grabs his phone and talks to Turbojugend Radio about Turbonegro´s 30 year anniversary extravaganza, which takes place during the juicy, annual Oslo Bloodbath in Oslo, Norway. He also shares insights of 30 years with his band and even tells the listeners how his mum broke the internet in the 90ies.

TJR´s own B. Engel and Tschebesta lay (not sit) down and open their day-to-day audio diary from this year´s superclassy Weltturbojugendtage in Hamburg. What a terrific blast is was, as 17 bands plowed their way through our souls.

Howdy´all! Years after TJ Radio made TJ Scumlahoma´s patch the MVP, Tschebesta travelled to Oklahoma City to personally collect (t)his valuable piece of yarn. Not only that, he got a lesson about the 66th Wonder of the World, The Golden Dome, but also about a most relevant Crystal Meth cook-off, all powered by the one and only - TurboHouston.

This year, Turbonegro celebrates its 30th anniversary, Turbojugend was founded in 1996. Hence: an old man´s county club?Nope. We sure do recruit newbees, Generation Y is an established part of our club. But there are differences, when boring old farts merge with the young guns. And believe us, it´s not only the flabby sagging flesh on our rear ends. This is social, as TJ Denver´s president THE JOAQUIN DEAD eloquently lays it down.

TJR provides support in all aspects of life. Besides Denim and Deathpunk related help, we sure know how to get wasted. But what about the day after? TJR went out to start a new series about hangover food and travelled to Montréal to get a first bite into one bona fide culinary treat: the magic Poutine, the Jesus Christ, the premium savior of hangovers. With or without Coke. Have it your way.

The WTJT X fleshback! This month´s episode features an in depth look on the recent WTJT in Hamburg! LIVE audio-footage from St. Pauli, as TJ Radio talks to the shiniest of all northern lights, the energetic & powerful newcomer-band HONNINGBARNA (NOR), that completely blew away the denim recruits in attendance! We critically discuss “Bootlegging” with Kutten-Master Chuck Destruction of TJ Fort Collins (USA), talk about the upcoming event OSLO BLOODBATH and can simply say: one of the juiciest TJR episodes ever. And definitely the highest level of intoxicated podcasting - so far.

Turbojugend Radio raises the question of "How to take proper care of your Kutte?", analyses the current state of TJ in the U.K. with Two Hawks and features the second part of the Marco Almera interview. And some Deathpunk, yeah.

On this episode of TJR, Tschebesta talks to TJ San Diego´s Rock´Roll artist Marco Almera, visits the Kuttenfactory in Fort Collins and raises the question: "How gay is TJ?"

Turbojugend Radio is an international podcast that gets you up-to-date on all the news and gossip surrounding Turbojugend and its worldwide activities.

Apart from that, Tschebesta talks to Jugend members from all countries and continents, to widen our individual denim horizons and help spreading the news about the very best TJ activities around the globe:
