108.9 The Hawk with Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock

The Definitive Unflappable List of Pink Floyd RecordsEvery magazine, website or podcast has ranked the Pink Floyd catalog. Every one of those rankings is wrong.Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock separately ranked all 15 Pink Floyd studio albums, then entered a brutal negotiation to create one final, legally binding list. No live albums. Only the studio half of Ummagumma. No appeals.Along the way, Jason defends the Pink Floyd album he bought at a midnight release, Geoff attacks a beloved record almost immediately, Roger Waters climbs directly into his own ass, David Gilmour records from a boat, and the guys confront the horrifying possibility that classic rock radio may have ruined several legitimately great albums.Which record is the definitive Pink Floyd masterpiece? Which one belongs at the bottom? How much can nostalgia distort a man’s judgment? And does matching an album with 2001: A Space Odyssey automatically make it better?The final ranking cannot be disputed. It is definitive. It is unflappable. If you disagree, you are flapping and we've already stated, NO FLAPPING ALLOWED. Val Verde is a no flap zone!Hawk Rock Talk is hosted by Geoff Garlock and Jason Gore.Listen to everything from 108.9 The Hawk at 1089thehawk.com.Support the station and get bonus shows, episodes a week early, Behind the Commercials, and more at patreon.com/1089thehawk.Subscribe to The Hawk newsletter at 1089thehawk.substack.com.Follow 108.9 The Hawk on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever fine classic rock radio is illegally transmitted.

Former Intern Hates Us with Sally Ann HallComedian Sally Ann Hall returns to 108.9 The Hawk more than 20 years after serving as the station’s “best intern in the biz.” Unfortunately, Sally Ann remembers the internship very differently than Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock.She recalls ordering three lunches every day, being forbidden from eating any of them, getting pelted with cottage cheese, surviving Good Charlotte’s tapioca cannon and enduring an incident involving Peter Cetera and a floor meatball. Whisp and Geoff agree that this may warrant an apology. Whether she receives one is another matter.Sally Ann also discusses her new Comedy Dynamics comedy special, Dead Wife Pretty, attempts to give away tickets to her own show and dominates a round of “Sounds That Celebrities Make.” Then Art Spart introduces his new traffic intern, Party Ball, whose professional interests appear to have very little to do with traffic.Also in this broadcast: Geoff presents the definitive ranking of every Red Hot Chili Peppers member, Whisp terrorizes Val Verde’s worst Foreigner tribute band, Queef’s Bowling suffers a devastating mechanical failure and the station issues an urgent warning about Val Verde’s murderous ice cream man.108.9 The Hawk.

Hawk Rock Talk: Rock Autopsy - Classic Rock One Hit Wonders, Volume 2Jason Gore and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock return to the classic rock morgue for another examination of the songs that radio refused to let die.But what exactly makes a classic rock one-hit wonder? A song does not necessarily have to dominate the Billboard charts. Sometimes one regional program director simply decides that “Never Been Any Reason” needs to play three times a week until the end of civilization.Jason and Geoff investigate the regional-radio mystery of Head East, the yodeling and whistling science behind Focus, and why every classic rock station needed songs long enough for the DJ to leave the studio and take a dump.They also uncover the interconnected musical universe of Jim Peterik, connecting The Ides of March’s “Vehicle” to Survivor, 38 Special, Sammy Hagar and enough Sylvester Stallone montage music to power an entire training facility.Plus: Pete Townshend secretly joins Thunderclap Newman as Bijou Drains, Pilot’s “Magic” is permanently converted into an Ozempic commercial, The Knack gives us Weird Al Yankovic, Sugarloaf demands that you stop calling them, Manfred Mann remains responsible for Bruce Springsteen’s only number-one songwriting hit, and Free inspires the cheapest crematorium in Val Verde.Most importantly, the episode produces two future Hawk institutions: Morgenson’s Crematorium and legendary afternoon radio personality Stanch McTuckens.Support 108.9 The HawkJoin the Patreon for bonus episodes, playlists and more Hawk Rock Talk:patreon.com/1089thehawkHawk Rock Summer is winding down, but Series Seven of 108.9 The Hawk begins Monday, August 17th.Tell your friends.

Hawk Rock Talk Classic: GenesisHawk Rock Summer continues on and this week we feature a Hawk Rock Talk Classic. Originally released October 21, 2022, it’s Hawk Rock Talk: GENESIS!Jason Gore and Geoff “The Real Person” Garlock go deep into the long, strange and surprisingly emotional history of Geoff’s favorite band: Genesis.And Genesis is not just one band. It is several completely different bands occupying the same school uniform.There is the strange British progressive-rock Genesis fronted by Peter Gabriel. There is the transitional version with Steve Hackett and Phil Collins. There is the three-man Genesis that filled arenas, dominated MTV and provided the soundtrack to Saturday mornings in the Gore household. Then there is Calling All Stations, which also technically happened.Jason and Geoff work through the albums, explain why recommending Genesis requires a psychological evaluation of the listener and attempt to determine how a band that once wrote “Supper’s Ready” eventually became one of the biggest pop groups on Earth.Plus: Phil Collins reluctantly becomes the singer, Peter Gabriel dresses like a flower without warning anyone, Tony Banks remains the irritated backbone of the operation, “Illegal Alien” is launched into space and Jason accidentally begins climbing up on Salisbury Steak.Support 108.9 The HawkListen to more Hawk Rock Talk and every episode of 108.9 The Hawk at 1089thehawk.com.Support the station at patreon.com/1089thehawk.108.9 The Hawk Series Seven premieres on August 17th!
