Neil Hamburger, Dr. Demento, Dengue Fever (Episode 285)

[@Mark-jr6ld]

Neil was born to host. He should host something every single day.

[@wakegary]

Has he considered parasites?

[@urch-rs7dx]

VERY classy of Neil to keep it clean in honor of Dr. Demento EVEN with the peer pressure from Doug to do otherwise.

[@StevenShilling]

I feel like doug and vic were trolling dr demento. Definitely not cool guys.

[@drumgold23]

Nah. They were just doing what they always do. That old guy looked a bit spaced, like he wasn't sure where he was.

[@StevenShilling]

@@drumgold23 "that old guy" sigh...

[@wakegary]

@@drumgold23 it's a hot take, but I think you're right.

[@arekhautaluoma4276]

Whaaat, Dengue Fever??? I saw them open for Secret Chiefs 3, that was amazing!! Neil??? Dr. Demento!?!?!? THis is nuts!!

[@Keithisill]

I speak English, and I dig the sound, but I don’t understand the words.

[@ztoxtube]

Dr. D was one of my all time childhood heroes and I'm glad to see a room full of dementoids and dementites making him feel welcome.

[@zwash300]

Gregg AND Dr. San?? It’s like a dream

[@TurboCroissant]

this was a wild one

[@wakegary]

What do you think was under the doctor's hat?

[@TurboCroissant]

@@wakegary if we knew the answer to that we'd be rich

[@wakegary]

Well let's at least write a screenplay for a buddy movie where we find the answer. Well, you do, but I'm kind of the straight edge dork who says it's too risky. But at the end, we're rich and my character actually gets a permanent tattoo! Just one of many arcs. @@TurboCroissant

[@jonovankirk]

Where's Gregg?

[@ThatJingleJangleFeeling]

Thank you for having this legend on your show. An absolute privilege to see more Dr Demento. We need more of this. Conan was similarly reverential of people from this comedic tier when he'd have Brooks, Reiner, Van Dyke et al on his show. OHL and Demento are part of the same family tree. It's that big, green one that really cool people hang out under.

[@skwraps]

I NEED that “Pete the Hiccuping Freak” heat on the playlist! 🔥

[@wakegary]

So so lucky that they hit record when Pete was afflicted, because the odds of a freak both having the hiccups and being studio ready is one in a ji- well, I'll sum it up in one word: Jackpot🤑🤑🤑 Kudos to hiccup bad boy, Pete, and big juicy ups to DJDP for bravely venturing turbodeep in order to truly deliver this meaningful banger... a banger that proudly salutes our nation's brave but frustrated hiccup victims.

[@josef2012]

Her voice took me back 10000 years 🙏💗

[@ahobbs5766]

[@oolafoolafensen4962]

[@BurrBones]

It's so awesome to see Dr. Demento!!!

[@mattwasmyname]

Love dengue fever... Didn't know they were still around

[@john3paul]

Office hours live is just about the best show on KZbin for years running. Keep it up!! Thanks for the laughs!!

[@Brian-oz8io]

When the show gets esoteric like this it reminds me so much of Comedy Bang Bang, my favorite comedy show of all time. Props for not being afraid to delve into bizarre humor. It may not appeal to everyone but lots of us appreciate it P.S. maybe have Scott Aukerman on the show sometime? P.P.S. Phil Gorsley the zoologist was my favorite guest character

"you work at Vaughn's" Neil Hamburger on Poolside Chats with tim & eric

[@wakegary]

with that orange rascal sweatshirt on big E. so cute how much they adored Neil. young LA Guy T&E couldn't help but giggle. Plus, Tom Green... I mean LA is pretty cool just because of this video.

[@NVpyromelana]

one of the funniest episodes of all time. neal adds so much class to the show.

[@reroll9368]

I started doing Demento's tongue action as a laugh and now I can't stop

[@drumgold23]

It's nice to see Vic and Doug be less nervous and scared without the fear of a beatng from Daddy looming over them. Like cult members when the Leader is off to Las Vegas for the weekend.

[@IVnik8or]

Billy Mumy would be an awesome interview. Before Barnes and Barnes and Lost In Space he worked with Rod Serling and Alfred Hitchcock as a child actor in two classic episodes, It’s A Good Life and Bang, You’re Dead. He has some great stories to tell.

[@altohippiegabber]

He must also have a _lot_ of crazy stories to tell about Larry "Wild Man" Fischer (R.I.P.)

[@LeoDominique23]

Neil! Ive been longing for you.

[@wakegary]

I'm with Leodi!

[@T00THY_0RiFiCE]

I discovered Neil by watching him open for Mr Bungle's live show Halloween 2020 (full set is on this website). He absolutely slayed that night, even though there wasn't a live audience

[@LeoDominique23]

@@T00THY_0RiFiCE every time I clear my throat, his soul becomes me. Merely a glimmer of the bright light that is Neil’s magic.

[@wakegary]

@@LeoDominique23I always thought the throat-clearing was kinda 'hacky' just a gag, neil is perfect

[@LeoDominique23]

@@wakegary He always sticks his neck out on the line. Never swallows a word. The spine of comedy.

[@jonovankirk]

The honor of giving Dr.demento a record he didn't already have.. I'm so jealous

[@Thecuervogold]

The animated caller was so cool!

[@MethChefJeff]

6 straight fart drops from Doug at 50:42, the pounding! How did Vic keep it together?

[@wakegary]

duuuuuude I know. so that 'from my head down to my legs' drop is one that I made for Dougg a while back but sent over to him right before. the look/sound that came from Dr Demento during that drop is a life moment for me. I had no clue D would play it and I'm not sure he even meant to (the intro is spooky). But it was a moment, regardless. lol I think Vic is so empathetic that his focus was airtight. He wanted to make sure that the Dr. was engaged by a megafan. Dougg did not care and it was absolutely bonkers funny. Very bizarre. Perfect. Also, Matt was really cracking up a lot, wasn't he? The things that make Matt laugh are the tippy top of the show, so I always notice.

[@for_your_health_drangus]

i love how when tim is gone the boys just let it go on and become unguided interview show.. whereas when tim is hosting his character does his best to ignore the guests as much as possible haha

[@lbgrindel]

The hiccups song was 🔥🔥🔥

[@wakegary]

Good luck on Survivor, Tim. We're rootin' for ya, so be sure and get that cash prize from the famous Jeff Probst.

[@1800allyoucaneat]

nobody hobsts like Probst, that's what I always say

[@FloppyMcBalderdash]

GREAT Albert Brooks interview, team!

[@DoctorRevers]

Wow the band is awesome.

[@robwalser]

Finally, some retribution for Sparks!

[@andrewjohnson8508]

I love Dr. San, but listening to that music gave me dengue fever

[@MrRom92DAW]

Dr. Demento is the man! Found a 78 copy of Shaving Cream not too long ago. One of the all time greatest.

[@thatkidfrankieC]

i only heard of dr demento in passing, i love him. I love dengue fever, her voice and flow is amazing and i dont even have to understand what she said. never even knew about gregg turkington having a alter ego, one of my favorite episodes.

[@altohippiegabber]

I misread your first sentence and thought it said "I only just heard of Dr. Demento passing" which made me do a Google search thinking I had missed the news of him dying.

[@sneedplays]

I remember trying to explain Neil Hamburger to my dad when he came with me to see the Tenacious D movie. Anyways, excited for Avatar 3.

[@blakestewart7200]

What a stacked show.

[@ROTARO11-11]

Glad they did a song for free now I gotta get the patreon to hear the rest 😂😂

[@yak6896]

Had to listen to some Sparks after this.

[@HazmatKat]

Neil held back on not calling out the irony of Shatner singing a song called "garbage man"

[@wakegary]

Huge +1. Shatner's very name sounds strikingly similar to "took a dump in her" as if referring to a classic car or something. Neil, though. He runs a tight ship. He respected the venue and the rules! We used to book Neil at the Friar's Club in Baton Rouge, LA for the early-bird senior dinners. He would always clean up, and that meant setting up the folding chairs in a large circle for the Narcotics Anonymous groups that had meetings after his Dinner Shows. He's always looking for an honest dollar, and I get why. Let's face it: Greyhound tickets aren't getting any cheaper and the deserts of the southwest are just as punishing to a Funnyman as they are to any Tom, Dick or Harry.

[@tylerburnett_]

50:40 is my favorite

Hilarious😂

[@SimpCity2000]

Why do I feel like Dr Demento used to talk about Christopher Robin and the 100 acre wood?

[@MayorOfEarth79]

I love this animated duck.

[@92RedRevolver]

I want to marry duck guy, he's so wholesome and fun.

[@CartoonMessLIVE]

Thank you 😍

[@miata350]

Drink every time Dr. Demento flicks his tongue

[@1800allyoucaneat]

that's a lotta drinks, guy was flicking like a snake in a hot car

[@wakegary]

I felt like I was swimming out past the breakers when I saw that tongue going like that. I lost track of the the anchors to what was a bit and who was actually in control of the room at that point. If you're going to drink to that, drink Everclear because they also "swim out past the breakers" and we know this because of the song, "Santa Monica". Actually, drink Jameson because that tongue reminds me of a famous J Jameson.
