Your artfully directed, yet esoterically weird, movies and TV shows will be treasures forever. You have left an indelible mark upon the world of cinema..

RIP David Lynch.

Here's a ✨brand new✨episode of Damaged Goods Radio featuring a recent 1-on-1 interview Matt did with Hugo Burnham from Gang Of Four!

Back in November 2023, Lenny Kaye from the Patti Smith Group played a tribute show to the amazing box set he compiled "Nuggets" at Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, North Carolina.

The Nuggets Boxset profiles lost classics from the 60s psychedelic garage rock era. Matt was fortunate enough to sit down with one of the performers before the show Hugo Burnham (the drummer from Gang of Four) and discussed a bit of the history of Gang of Four as well as his involvement with the Nuggets tribute shows.

Tune in!

Damaged Goods Radio EXCLUSIVE!

The Damaged Goods Radio team took a field trip to the Cryptozoology & Paranormal Muesum in small town of Littleton, NC. In this investigative trip, DJs Lava Lamp and Dune Sting, along with super-duper best friend Courtney, uncovered the truth!

Here are just 3 facts YOU NEED TO KNOW:

1. Bigfoot exists and loves North Carolina. REALLY loves NC. Bigfoot gets around.

2. Matt, Chris, and Courtney detected ghosts and spiritual energies with the sophisticated EM meters provided.
[ Note: Cellphones also set them off, which led us to conclude that cellphones are actually conduits to the spirit world… obviously ]

3. If you ask the museum curator about his randomly displayed Madonna photo, he will tell you ALL about it.

DJ Dune Sting is going to start off your week properly with some bizarrely melodic alternative. Don’t let the discordant (‘disCHORDant’ is more apt, perhaps?) sound scare you off, because then you’d then be missing out on one of the most compelling bands you’re likely to hear lately.

This week’s track: “The Hit”, from the LA indie/alternative duo, Kamikaze Palm Tree from their 2022 LP “Mint Chip”, released by Drag City Records.
