Forget the ball drop — this year we launched a disco-drenched asteroid into a cosmic conga line and never looked back. 🪐✨ The latest Eclectic Wonderland is a retro-futuristic glitter bomb of novelty nuggets, outsider anthems, robot anthems, and total kazoo mayhem. From singing fish heads to intergalactic hairdos, it’s a full-blown New Year’s Eve audity.

The show itself carries that same spirit: absurd, playful, cosmic. Renaldo & The Loaf, The Residents, Bruce Haack, Bran Flakes, Negativland, Barnes & Barnes, Beachfront Vinny — all the oddities you’d expect, but threaded with Gala Violet originals and inside jokes too.

Phew. This spring and summer have been one wild ride. Between family, projects, paperwork, and traveling across timelines (real and metaphorical), we’ve been juggling shows, repeat weeks, and spontaneous broadcasts squeezed between life’s unpredictable dance steps. Some days the ankle cooperated. Some days it did not. But through it all, Eclectic Wonderland kept spinning… even if we had to replay a few favorites along the way.

This week on Eclectic Wonderland, we deep-dive into the wild, the weird, and the wonderfully unhinged. From fish heads to robot rabbits, spam sandwiches to purple bananas on the moon, this sonic spectacle celebrates all things Demento, featuring beloved classics, cult curiosities, and a special interview.

Hello, hello, and welcome to The Auditory Odditorium! If you’ve just stumbled through the looking glass—congratulations! You’ve landed ...
