  
Dr. Demento, born Barry Hanson, is host to the Dr. Demento Show, radio's weekly two-hour free-wheeling mix of "mad music and crazy comedy" heard on stations coast to coast. Along with the recordings of legends Spike Jones, Tom Lehrer, Stan Freberg, Monty Python, and Frank Zappa, the Doctor plays new funny songs sent in by amateur and professional singers and comedians. That's how the world was introduced to "Weird Al" Yankovic, who went on to become rock music's best-known funny person. His CDs are hysterical compilations of the best of the best.
