- Barret Eugene Hansen (nacido el 2 de abril de 1941), es un DJ de radio especialmente destacado en canciones de pop.
- While fishing for the elusive "rock lobster" off the cost of Maine, he came upon a bucket of roly-poly fish heads. After trying to sell them to a local fish market, using the not-so clever phrase, "Eat them up, yum," someone told him that he had to be demented to try and sell those things. Hence, he adopted the name Dr. Demento. Failing to sell the stinky fish parts, he went on the local radio station and began playing records that no one else dared to play, or even wanted to play. Virtual unknowns have become household names thanks to Dr. Demento. No doubt everyone is familiar with Percy Peaches and the Beach Blanket Bingo Death Squad and their tune "Spud." Their follow-up single, "Grazing with Mr. Green Jeans," did not fare as well on the music charts, but they have been known to play it
