Artist Track Album Comments Images Approx. start time
The Addicts  Without God I Would Be Nothing   Favoriting The Addicts Sing  (Notes: The Addicts Sing is now well-known, but did you know that one of the members was John Gimenez, a big wheel in the Reconstructionalist Movement who were tight with Reagan… - Jello pg. 40)

0:22:30 (Pop-up)
The Royal Heirs  It’s Not an Easy Road   Favoriting Sacred Saxophones  (Notes: “The Sacred Saxophones” by the Royal Heirs is hands-down the most miserable, depressing collection of dirges I’ve ever heard. They always talk about how “uplifting” religious music is supposed to be, but not the Royal Heirs! Suicidal teens beware- you’re much safer with Ozzy or Judas Priest!” - Jello pg. 40) One of the more depressing tracks on this LP. I didn't even make it to side 2 while prepping this show. lol -Your D.J. 
Favoriting
 
People’s Temple Choir  Set Them Free   Favoriting He's Able  (Notes: “He’s Able,” by the People’s Temple Choir, shows Mrs. Jim Jones with piled-up hair singing off-key Godspell Songs, a lot of hallelujah-ing people,…” Jello pg. 40) 
Favoriting
0:26:49 (Pop-up)

(He narrates a PMRC video, by the way.” - Jello pg. 40)

Victor Lundberg  Open Letter to my Teenage Son   Favoriting Open Letter to my Teenage Son  (Notes: “An even funnier one is Victor Lundberg’s “Open Letter to My Teenage Son.” With patriotic music he goes on and on about how we have freedom and the right to do this and that - “but burn your draft card, I will have no son.” He’s got some interesting thoughts on “the long hair,” too.” - Jello pg. 40)

Favoriting
1:09:21 (Pop-up)
Stryper  Soldiers Under Command   Favoriting Soldiers Under Command  (Notes: Christian heavy metal is another genre perversion: at their concerts Stryper threw bibles out to the crowd. One album shows them posing with bombs painted to match their striped spandex pants and sporting Farrah Fawcett ’70’s wigs and makeup. I wonder if the Charlie’s Angles cast realized their most lasting influence would be on heavy metal wig-styles!” - Jello pg. 41) 
Favoriting
1:36:31 (Pop-up)
The Messiah Prophet Band  Rock The Flock   Favoriting Rock the Flock  (Notes: “They feel that because it has satanic rhythms handed down from the druids, it’s still satanic music - therefore groups like Stryper are either knowingly leading children to hell, or unknowingly are under the influence of druids and satanists. But that doesn’t deter people like the Messiah Prophet Band, who do “Rock the Flock”! - Jello pg. 41) 
Favoriting
1:41:30 (Pop-up)

There's a pretty amusing clip where Timothy Leary is ambushes on some talk show when the host gets Art Linkletter on the phone line and more or less blames him for Diane's death. It's pretty trashy.

1992 – Indiana University

Researchers at Indiana University, commissioned by Indiana school officials in 1992, found that those who completed the D.A.R.E. program subsequently had significantly higher rates of hallucinogenic drug use than those not exposed to the program.[6]
