This week on 108.9 The Hawk, Geoff and Whisp debate fire safety with the aggressively disgusting Stinky the Bear, launch seedless watermelon into the sun, and reveal the shocking truth about H.P. Lovecraft's hatred of summering in Val Verde. More insider information about the much more dangerous Illuminati, The Sultans of Swing! Plus, Art's 'Crazy Taxi' traffic reports and a deep dive into the CIA's connection to the Scorpions. It's the kind of classic rock morning radio that'll make you question everything.

Join Geoff and Whisp as they grapple with plummeting radio ratings (from #1 to #10 and then #20!). They blame a disastrous “98.6 The Squirt" ad buy and explore the questionable comfort of Chatbot therapy. This episode takes a wild turn with Marvel "What If...?" scenarios, the dangers of Val Verde's Pac-Man Fever-a-Thon, and a truly unforgettable interview with Zimothy Larson (Mike Drucker), the eccentric owner of "Bookshelf Books." Zimothy's struggle with names, his disdain for James Patterson (except during "Eruption"), and the legacy of his father's "Zavid's Sexy Books" add to the chaos.
