About this listen

Welcome to Born Bad Radio, hosted by your resident wax addict and emotional support DJ Sleazy T. Broadcasting straight from a pile of scratched 45s and questionable life choices, this ain’t your cousin’s Spotify playlist. This is a séance in stereo.


I’m talking soul, R&B, Black gospel, blue-eyed gospel (don’t start with me), garage rock, sad bastard country, and anything else I found in a church basement or gas station bin and decided was sacred. Every track is a ghost. Every groove, a confession. Every beat is out for revenge, or at least a little attention.


You’ll hear fictional cheaters airing dirty laundry under flickering neon. Harmonica breakdowns that might summon demons. Choirs harmonizing like the rent's due tomorrow. Sad cowboys. Haunted


tambourines. You know… the good stuff.

Born Bad Radio is not here to heal you. It’s here to drag you down into the beautiful, busted heart of music that was never supposed to survive—but did anyway.

All vinyl. No mercy. One warped record at a time.

    Born Bad Radio – Episode #1

    Hosted by Sleazy T

    Welcome to the filthiest frequency on the dial, Born Bad Radio. I’m your host, Sleazy T, guiding you through a back alley of raw, unfiltered soul scorchers and floor-shaking R&B 45s. This isn’t your grandma’s soul show. This is the down-and-dirty, sweat soaked sound of the underground, pulled straight from my own dusty, degenerate record vault.

    Every cut is carefully handpicked for maximum sleaze, swagger, and soul. If it doesn’t make you sweat, scream, or strut it didn’t make the cut.

    This episode is brought to life, sliced and juiced by the one and only Troy Bootow, producer, editor, and sonic partner-in-crime.

    So pour yourself something stiff, crank it up, and get ready to dance like you’ve been struck by lightning in a dive bar bathroom.

    Welcome to Born Bad Radio.
