Val Verde Vertical Film Festival with BriTANick

Val Verde Vertical Film Festival with BriTANick Season Six Finale! BriTANicK are back in Val Verde for their second appearance in four years, and this time Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher are not trying to sell out Dingbat’s. They’re here to present their Hulu comedy Pizza Movie at the Val Verde Vertical Film Festival, where every movie is shown the way God, Marvin Scorsese and a heavily armed theater staff intended: cropped into an unforgiving vertical nightmare. On this Season Six fin...

Stick It In The Beast with Matt Koff

Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock are back in the Rock & Roll RV, where Sammy Hagar still refuses to explain the one true way to rock, Mayor Lee Roth is cutting multiple ribbons on Hog Street, and Big Truck is preparing to hawkcast from the Val Verde Municipal Dump VIP Preview Night. Plus, the kids of Val Verde are being forced to learn Squeeze lyrics before multiplication, which is how you build a better future. This week, comedian and longtime Daily Show writer Matt Koff...

The Rock Journalist Who Wrote Every Song with Don Fanelli

It’s Whisp Plays Anything He Wants Wednesday on 108.9 The Hawk, which means Whisp Turlington has seized full control of the playlist, threatened Val Verde with multiple Tormado warnings, and dedicated emotionally devastating Mike + The Mechanics to anyone with a dead dad. This week, legendary rock journalist Guy Trinkler drops by the Rock & Roll RV to promote his new self-published memoir, Songs, a 655-page list of songs he either helped write, inspired, or assumes were probably about him. Alon...

The Spirit of The Doors with Joe Wengert

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 upcomin...

All Aboard The Val Verde Crazy Train with Chandler Dean

All Aboard The Val Verde Crazy Train with Chandler Dean Val 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 lea...

The Murder & Sinkhole Capital of the World

The Murder & Sinkhole Capital of the World Val Verde did it again. Producer Scotty has UPDATED THE OPEN and made it official: we have retained our rightful title as the Murder Capital of the World. And in a coordinated civic achievement, we have also been crowned the Sinkhole Capital of the World. The earth continues to open. We continue to broadcast. It’s a standard morning inside the Rock & Roll RV. Whisp is doing impressions. Geoff is fielding complaints from the Val Verde Police Department...

The Val Verde Zoning Crisis with Eric Cunningham

Whisp Turlington is salty. And for once, it’s not because Bastrd AI is generating “Hogan’s Heroes” deepfake erotica. No. Today, the Val Verde City Council has declared war on Turlington Manor (the dead mall that Whisp lives in), and they’re doing it the only way Val Verde knows how: Through zoning. A new councilman, Edmund Sullivan (Eric Cunningham), comes into the Rock & Roll RV to explain why Whisp’s home has been rezoned into a high-density industrial zone… which means Captain D’s...

The Val Verde Radio Wars: Slippery, Old & Wet

Another morning on 108.9 The Hawk, and the Val Verde Radio Wars grind on… Unresolved, undignified, and somehow wetter than ever. Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock continue broadcasting through pure spite, using Jon Bon Jovi tickets, hostile listener interactions, and wildly irresponsible sponsors as weapons in the never-ending fight against 98.6 The Squirt. Also in this broadcast: A Jon Bon Jovi ticket giveaway that becomes psychological warfare Geoff live reads a new ad fro...
