Flight 1080 – Episode 53: "Horizontal Foods and Haunted Hikes"

In this off-the-rails episode of Flight 1080, Billy Armi joins the cockpit as we sink our teeth into the controversial world of horizontal foods—what are they, why do they matter, and why are some people so wrong about them? Expect raised voices, strong opinions, and zero apologies. We also take a spirited detour into ghostly encounters, swap notes on local hiking trails that might be cursed (or just badly marked), and sprinkle in a dash of weird science because, well, why not? It’s all the chaos you crave, with the volume cranked to 11.

Episode 52 – “Count Vampula’s Crime Scene Throwdown”

Things got weird… again. In this episode of Flight 1080, Count Vampula dropped off a delightfully disturbing board game called Crime Scene Autopsy Report—so of course, we played it live on-air with our listeners. Body parts, motives, and questionable alibis flew fast and loose. But it didn’t stop there—somehow we ended up freestyling in between rounds. That’s right: forensic rap battles. Don’t miss this offbeat combo of true crime parody and hip-hop chaos, only on Flight 1080.

ep 51- Vampires, Vowels & Victims

Episode 51 sinks its fangs in deep! We host a live, chaotic audience spelling bee—some spellings were so wrong they might’ve summoned something. Count Vampula drops off a suspicious board game that we actually dared to play on-air. And in the latest twist of our murder mystery series, Rich Lieberman and Steve O’Brien meet their bizarre ends. Board games, bloodsuckers, and broadcasters—you’ll laugh, gasp, and maybe check under your seat.

Episode 50: Consulting the Dead and the Death of Don in Salinas
It's a golden milestone on Flight 1080 as Dave and the crew dig deep—literally and figuratively. We unearth Episode 18 ("Consulting with the Dead") and Episode 19 ("The Death of Don from Salinas") of the KSCO Whodunnit series, complete with clues, chaos, and a suspicious photo of Rush Limbaugh with googly eyes. We also pan for local treasure, talking gems and precious metals hidden beneath the hills of Santa Cruz. And just when things couldn’t get stranger, we deliver an alternative version of the murder mystery in a voice so southern, it comes with its own jug band soundtrack.

Put on your prospector hat and grab your monocle—it’s one wild ride.

This week, we unleashed not one but two new chapters of The KSCO Whodunnit, Whatdunnit, What-the-Heck-Is-Going-On-Here Murder Mystery & Slightly Off-Topic Theater of Dubious Justice—episodes 10 and 11, where boredom turns fatal and trolls get more than they bargained for. Then it was time for the return of our beloved and mildly concerning "Tasty or Tainted" contest, where wrong answers mean weird food. And just when you thought it couldn't get more unhinged, we busted out the slide whistles and turned your song suggestions into something... well, something. Big thanks to the brave callers who played along!
