108.9 The Hawk with Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock

108.9 The Hawk is broadcasting live from the annual Val Verde Car, Boat and Horse Expo, a beloved local tradition that began in 1884 as a horse show, became a boat show through violence, and eventually swallowed the auto show because Val Verde can only support so many chuds in one room.This week, Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock welcome Other Anthony from Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat, who is supposedly here to promote the hit Amazon Prime series, except he does not seem to know he was on a show. As far as Other Anthony is concerned, he still works at Rocking Grandma’s Hot Sauce, still reports to an abandoned office full of squirrels, rats, birds of prey, and black mold, and is simply visiting Val Verde to source peppers and maybe find a boat, car, horse, or horse trailer to live in.Rob Lathan joins 108.9 The Hawk as Other Anthony, assistant procurement and sourcing manager for Rockin’ Grandma’s Hot Sauce, a man with severe brain fog, questionable workplace access, and a deep spiritual bond with Cinnamon, the mascot for Flenderson’s Horse Bags.Also on this week’s broadcast:The Val Verde Car, Boat and Horse Expo. Whisp and Geoff report live from the Civic Center, surrounded by Cinnamon the horse, Lady Beauregard the steamboat, Baby Bugatti, Turbo Grandpa, toy boats for smart rats, and horses named Daisy Belle, Willow, Rosie June and more.Art Spart Traffic. Art is still trapped inside the Deku Tree in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, now with 1.5 million Twitch subscribers and a very specific audience for Link’s ass.Cinnamon Tries Hot Sauce. Other Anthony offers his favorite Rockin’ Grandma’s sweet sauce to Cinnamon, which goes poorly for everyone except the concept of animal consent.Listen. Subscribe.

Val Verde Fashion Week hits town, which means the convention center basement is once again full of five-wolf shirts, novelty a-hole apparel, and enough all-over prints to blind a horse. From there, Whisp and Geoff spiral into a deeply cursed roundup of mugs from Juggggs Mug Emporium, and a live remote from Uncle Petruccio’s where Big Truck nearly floats to Mount Hetfield on pure helium meat.The real centerpiece, though, is George Lucas. Specifically, George Lucas in head-to-toe denim. There is no guest. There is only judgment.Also on this week’s broadcast:Shooter’s Bar & Buffet massacre, again.

DoorsCon26 hits Val Verde, which means the convention center is packed with shirtless Jim Morrison freaks, suspicious Ray Manzarek lookalikes, and exactly one self-declared Doors legacy act. Enter Ed Zed, frontman of The Windows, who insists he is not running a tribute band. He is preserving the spirit of The Doors through legal gray areas, naked vocals, and a deeply troubling origin story involving Robbie Krieger, Benedict Canyon, and a Toyota Yaris.Joe Wengert, co-creator of the upcoming Prime Video animated series Kevin, joins the show as Ed Zed, a man so committed to continuing The Doors’ legacy that he has replaced the music, the lyrics, and most of the band with songs like “Haircuts,” “Rubber Band,” “Open Your Third Eye,” and “Bug Spray.” Things only get worse when Robbie Krieger calls in, his dog is somehow still on a ventilator, and Ed Zed continues insisting this is all just family business.Also on this week’s broadcast:Bob Seger Sports Jersey Facts becomes an accidental new Hawk institution before anyone can stop it.Art Spart tries to give traffic but gets derailed by Ocarina of Time again!Geoff delivers an extremely serious taxonomy of cover bands, tribute bands, and legacy bands, complete with side trips to Guns and Boars and Thin Dizzy.DoorsCon merch goes fully off the rails at Juggggs Mug Emporium, including mugs for Ray Manzarek, Lizard Ting, and one extremely hostile official convention design.Listen.

Jury Duty 2: That’s Just What We Do with Chris KulaChris Kula, writer and executive producer of Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat stops by the Whisp Turlington Morning Show to promote the show, and immediately finds himself trapped in the one press appearance in America where the hosts are more interested in Freevee’s death, Bosch’s late night habits, and whether anyone under 30 remembers UCB sketches.

That’s just what we do.Also on this week’s broadcast:Bon Iver at Val Mart Amphitheater.

The Bathroom Boys with Clare O’KaneClare O'Kane returns to Val Verde for a homecoming stand at Dingbats, and naturally the conversation immediately veers into Bathroom Boys podcast lore, clink recovery, and whether the Rock & Roll RV’s six-month no-number-two streak can survive the visit.

All Aboard The Val Verde Crazy Train with Chandler DeanVal Verde's $15 billion transit miracle has 13 riders, zero credibility, and one communications director who really should not be allowed near a microphone.Stephen Ribble arrived at the Rock & Roll RV to pitch the Val Verde Crazy Train to a skeptical public. He came prepared with talking points. He left under police escort, seated in an oversized rocking chair, having admitted to a pattern of automobile-related incidents that spans at least a dozen municipalities. A triumph for public transit outreach.Chandler Dean (comedian, host of Abolish Everything) joins Whisp and Geoff as Stephen Ribble, a polished former Department of Transportation spokesperson who has somehow become the worst possible face of a civic infrastructure launch.Also on this week's broadcast:Michael Danny Honey returns. Whisp reveals a long-buried truth about soft-rock heartthrob Michael Danny Honey and confirms the reissue of the classic Where Am I Supposed to Park My Car?Traffic with Art Spart. Art attempts to report on Crazy Train conditions while fully absorbed in his Twitch stream. It's Sonic time, baby!Big Truck rides the rails. Broadcasting live from onboard the Crazy Train, Big Truck describes the experience as less "modern infrastructure" and more "county fair Gravitron operated by a man who took too much coke."VerdeChan investigates. Whisp and Geoff excavate local message boards, where Ribble has been accused of cult behavior, bloodsucking vampirism, and several things that are genuinely hard to categorize.Check out the second season of Abolish Everything here: nebula.tv/abolishListen.
