On this episode TJ Montreal´s Quill Driver calls in to talk about the newly set up "SAFE TJ" movement, and explains why Turbojugend is offering a Safe Harbor for Sailorettes and Sailors in situations when harassment and uneasy moments are developing. TJ Radio also discusses why and how situations seem to get out of hand at times and why TJ SAFE is offering a solution where local presidents and Jugends don´t seem to get a hand on a situation.

Ass we mourn Hank´s passing on November 19th 2021, Turbojugend Radio´s Audio Slave#3 from Singapoore and Tschebesta peek in the rearview mirror and disect Hank von Hell´s first album EGOMANIA. Ass we analyse all of the tracks we surely didn´t forget to rate the album with Chris Crusoe´s infamous Deathpunk index: Sexy/Dangerous/Funny - which should be the common practise. True Turbo magic happening here.

Trying to ease our rattled souls into fall, TJ Radio´s Tschebesta sat down with Kevin von Helvete and shot the breeze about all things Turbojugend, WTJT 24, snow chains on wheelchairs, Herbert´s natural given authority - just a good ol´ conversation, ya know?

What has become a little tradition, B. Engel and Tschebesta cuddle in their Queen Size bed and reflect on their painful experiences at this year´s WTJT.

When it comes to going big, Turbojugends of Sweden sure know how to set the stage. Have you ever seen a TJ celebrating its 25 year anniversary with a Turbonegro tribute on vinyl? An own coffee table patch-book? A kick arse party with 7 bands? Well, here you go.

It´s that time of the year: the Weltturbojugendtage are approaching rapidly and that´s exactly the case why we present you all the bands and things you need to know. Prepare yourself emotionally, mentally and also physically by listening to this pod. The Asscalator did it, again. No oops.

Another year, another great Turbojugend documentary. TJ Kolding´s Capt. Deppe Jr. used all of his energy and endless power and came with the exclusive, funny, sexy and dangerous behind-the-scenes footage of WTJT 2023 in St. Pauli.

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 streets of Jesus? How to live forever? We got the answers – by the grace of god..

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 pronounce my Turbojugend´s name and failing miserably, yet in style. A previously unreleased concert and 16 songs that pay tribute to the late Hank von Hell. Plus: an epic easter turd, come find out.

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 exercising active parental guidance but also when it comes to dealing with and attracting new, young generations of sailors and sailorettes. 

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 movie and how you can get your DVD copy of that historical masterpiece. Kiipis & kiitos to the mesari of the documentary, Jukka! 

It´s a tradition: every year, B. Engel and Tschebesta not only get naked, but dress down to their Scandinavian Leather in oder to review this year´s Weltturbojugendtage straight outta bed. Get ready for an honest, dirty, bildering discussion about the bands, people and events that wasted Hamburg again last weekend.

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 out of us.

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).

From time to time, a visit to one´s Vaterland is a proper measure to extract personal well-being as part of another official Bloodbath in Oslo.That's exactly what happened for the 13th time in Norway´s capital as TJ Oslo´s president, the allmighty Cato reviews on this episode.We´ll stay in Oslo as Turbonegro´s legendary former drummer, Chris Summers, talks about his new band project Lady Friend which should warm up even the toughest Punk and Metal heart, providing a more than wellcum acoustic Glögg for intimate fall moments in the Darkness anywhere from Rostock to Shanghai.

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 the city of cities (see, I bravely resisted another Frankieboy reference).If you wanna keep connected to NYC Punk and Tom (the myth behind his alter ego Alpha Mota), go check out his crisp Webradio realpunkradio.com - also available as a podcast – amazing stuff.

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!

Furthermore, we expand the conversation about political scenarios in the future, possible LGBT implications, the importance of having a critical mindset when raising kids and what´s seems to seriously go wrong in today´s society.  At the end of the pod, the B.Engel returns to TJR and personally presents his BRANDNEW annual WTJT song, "Turbojugend" (world-premiere!) Download here: bit.ly/3b92tab.

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.

Finally, after years of silent and isolated darkness, the unofficial ChristmAss of the Denim Community is back in St. Pauli. Between August 4th-8th, TJ St. Pauli has organized a killer line-up with up and coming, ass-kicking bands that will get you out of your post Covid depression. We´ll talk about this year´s  terrific extravaganza, all the bands, all the events and reveal the designated successor of the Schlemmereck!

TJ Radio´s Tschebesta asked Happy Tom about his opinion on the ongoing war, even digging deeper into possible governmental approaches, that would lead up to win-win situations for both Ukrainian refugees and first world countries such as Norway or Germany. Deeper thoughts for a more than necessary cause.+++DON´T STOP SUPPORTING THE TJ UKRAINE PROJECT: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2456940071109199+++

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! +++SUPPORT FOR TJ IN THE UKRAINE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2456940071109199+++

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 the matter of only a few days. +++SUPPORT FOR TJ IN THE UKRAINE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2456940071109199+++

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. Thank you for everything & rest in peace, Hank.

It´s commonly known that when is comes to kissing, French people have set the standard ever since Adam met Eve in some garden in Paris. Well, here comes Dr. Justice from TJ Saboteur, who not only lays down the law as far as French Kissing within the TJ goes, but also explains why Hellfest is one of the hottest festivals for our typa music. Alors: allez a la guillotine! 

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.

Ass some of you might be aware of, there´s a new “interest” oriented, global Turbojugend out there: TJ Lucha. TJR talked to members Kevin Mash (UK) and Jimmy Beautiful (USA) about their common interest in Wrestling and even analyze the stunning parallels of Wrestling and our Denim centered community, hence: a Turbojugend World Order (TJWO). Furthermore, we provide a brief update on the current plans of the 2021 Weltturbojugendtage ass well ass a mini-festival in Hamburg, which is scheduled for Juli 31st of 2021.

Deathpunk has been the definite style of the first Turbonegro albums. Enter the Anal 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.
