Turbojugend Radio - The Podcast

The Sweat Roast of Eternity, thats exactly what took place when Turbo played Grünspan at Weltturbojugendtage 2014. Life threatening heat, naked bodies, Hamburg Steamers, inner(pit)course - Two Hawks and Hans von Meinkrocht reflect on their remembrance . Definitely n ot for the faint of heart . Watch your feelings.

In a new, short format, TJ radio presents the comeback of the MVP - the most valuable patch. Truly state of the ass.

Admittedly, religion and Turbojugend is a rarely discussed topic on TJR. However, this doesn’t stop Turbojugend Radio from picking up the slack and talk to The Irish Bastard of TJ Latter Day Sinners of Salt Lake City: How does it feel to grow up in a community dominated by a rather conservate environment as a Punk afficionado? How is the reception of wearing Denim and a leather cap in the bright s...

Ass another exhausting year comes to an end, let us take the time and reflect on some good ol´ times by reviewing Turbonegro´s 2003 massterpiece SCANDINAVIAN LEATHER. Like a decades old Aquavit, this album goes down ass smoothly ass any Se(a)man during their heyday in their early 20s. Skål!

Ass November arrives, we remember Hank von Helvete, Turbonegro´s epic voice and source of sheer borderless mayhem, Deathpunk & good times. That’s exactly what´s we´re gonna shove up urs on this live recording of an epic concert that took place in June of 2003 in Wiesen, Asstria. We had it all: the good old tunes,  Hank drenching Yours Truly in blood, solid thrash-talk, liquor – even trying to...

With Turbojugend having entered their 3rd decade of existence, Turbojugend Radio invited Vulvasaur TJ Golden to talk about the perceived state of political correctness within our Deathpunk universe.  In how far is controversy still important, how should we deal with Denim drenched ironic homoerotica, getting overly p.c., dudes f*$%ing versus $lut$ f*$%ing   – rather relevant topics not only for ex...

The Finnish denim coloured magnus opus of all things Turbojugend is finally finished and now it's time to celebrate the release of the documentary.  "We Just Wanna Have a Good Time All the Time" is a story of our unique worldwide family - how it all started and what it has grown to be. Tschebesta talked to the director Jukka "Killmister Crowley" Pihlajaniemi and find out about the making of the mo...

Ever since Honningbarna appeared on Turbojugend Radio in 2014, we´re hooked on the energetic, angry, fresh, unpredictable, uncontrollable, no-holds-barred – you get it – attitude of young Norwegian bands. B. Engel and Tschebesta grabbed a mic and interviewed the young chaps trying to figure out WHY and HOW Norway always seem to come up with super-unique, kick-arse music that moves the living sh*!t...

As we mourn the passing of Turbonegro´s Hank van Helvete more than one year ago, TJR time-warps into the summer of 2002, when Turbo was putting together a short-reunion tour, once again delighting the world with darkness and Denim. Enjoy the one the only - Hank van Hell (* 15. Juni 1972; † 19. November 2021).

No, we´re not gonna franksinatra you to death, but I definitely met Alpha Mota from TJ New York City to give you an update on the current state of (Death-)Punk in Gotham. The past three years surely stirred up some sh**t, nevertheless Punk is still alive and kicking. We´ll mix in some personal experiences with The Ramones and get an insight what it means to be a chief Death-Punk tourist officer in...

Ass every year, B.Engel and Tschebesta, the "Brothers of another Mothers" are podcasting out of their King-Size bed to tell you all about their personal experiences at this years Weltturbojugendtage. It´s all in there: from Hard- to Softcore, from sensitivity to brutality, from taste to tasteless. See you at WTJT 2023!

We´ve all been around the Internet, but have we really been checking out the wonderful diversity within the Turbojugend? How about a sweet cocktail of Action Rock, the business of sex working and  the ability to drive irresistibly mad around the hills of Assville? We´ve got it all served up, believe it or not.

After hearing about the terrible situation from TJs in the Ukraine and how to provide immediate help, Turbojugend Radio reached TJs from Russia and openly discussed the political situation in Russia and got their perspective of the state of mind within the country of the aggressor.   +++PLEASE CONTINIUE TO SUPPORT TJs IN THE  UKRAINE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2456940071109199 +++

In the last episode, we heard about the terrible things going on in the Ukraine.  We now hear from TJ Poznan (Poland) of how even our global Deathpunk micro-society, the Turbojugend, can immediately help supporting our big hearted sailors and sailorettes, while they are constantly helping people in need with the most basic things of life. This one is for true solidarity, Jugends of the world!   ++...

As the world is watching the developments in the Ukraine in shock, TJ Radio reaches out and talked to President Kosmobronson from the Ukrainian Galician Pussycats chapter. Working as a combat medic, we find one of our fellow sailormen in the middle of a senseless, sick war, who openly speaks out about the naked truth and the brutal situation in the Ukraine and his daily life, which has changed in...

When it comes to food, seems like nothing is as Punk as a pizza. When it comes to Pizza, nothings seems more controversial for TJ like Pineapples as a topping. That´s reason enough to dig even deeper into the topic and consult Branden Powers, creator of Evel Pie, the RnR pizza mecca in Las Vegas who tries to explain the magic of Pizza and Punk and how to merge them into a most favorable concept. 

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 &...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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.
