After a little hiatus, Third Eye Radio is back, and this time, we’re going full tilt into the weird. Things are always a little strange around here, but this episode leans into it more in a literal sense.
For this broadcast, I unearthed a forgotten oddity from the Internet Archive: The Strange Dr. Weird, a short-lived radio program from the 1940s. Creepy narration, pulpy plots, dusty static, it’s audio ephemera at its finest.
I stitched Dr. Weird’s audio together with a hand-picked psych soundtrack: familiar names you may recognize from the blog plus a few new discoveries. Old-time radio on its own is fun. Old-time radio with psych rock is the kind of thing Third Eye Radio exists for.
This episode’s includes:
- Mitsuru Tabata / Mike Vest / Nick Raybould (Asura Airavata)
- Hippie Death Cult (from the Wish You Were Here 50-year Floyd tribute)
- Sun-Rot, Jon Camp, Generifus, Lule & As Crianças Adultas
- Rick Snowden, Children of the Mushroom, Tim Barnes, Riko & Whaler
- All wrapped in Dr. Weird’s haunted radio program
If you’re into strange sounds, forgotten broadcasts, and psych stitched together with love, this is your ticket.
The full episode is streaming now on Patreon.
Come join the weird side and support Third Eye Radio.
Stay tuned. Stay weird.
