108.9 The Hawk with Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock

Welcome to CLASSIC HAWK — a weekly look back at the greatest broadcasts in 108.9 The Hawk history. Originally released on July 25, 2022, this episode marked Tom Scharpling’s first appearance on 108.9 The Hawk as the instantly unforgettable and aggressive Big Scotty. Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock welcome contest winner and committed Dire Straits fan Big Scotty into the Hawknest, where he believes he’s there to collect Val Verde County Fair tickets. Instead, he learns he has won the 108.9 The Hawk All Summer Pass, kicking off one of the great recurring Hawk nemesis arcs. Tom Scharpling returns to 108.9 The Hawk this upcoming Monday 3/16/26 as Big Scotty!

Welcome back to Hawk Rock Talk: Classic Albums Geoff “The Actual Man” Garlock and Jason Gore go deep on one of the most CLASSIC albums in CLASSIC rock history. This week: the 1971 masterpiece that launched Jethro Tull into the stratosphere - "Aqualung." British blues-flute-rock. Concept-adjacent theology. Acoustic guitars in weird time signatures. And yes, a completely irresponsible number of Ian Anderson flute grunts. How many flute grunts will happen over the course of this episode? Many. Guaranteed. Pull up a pew. Dust off your codpiece. Kick one leg up on your other leg. And let’s talk about “Aqualung.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

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. Art Spart is navigating traffic through roads that may or may not still legally qualify as roads.

Classic Hawk: Springsteen Live At The Verde Dome (with John Murray) Original Airdate: March 6, 2023 Episode Summary In this edition of Classic Hawk, we revisit one of the most electrifying live episodes in 108.9 The Hawk history - Springsteen Live At The Verde Dome with guest John Murray.

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 Pretzels can legally open inside Whisp’s bedroom.

The Hawk is back, and Val Verde is once again experiencing the kind of civic growth that only happens when a man (Whisp Turlington) invents an AI named BASTRD… and another man opens a pet store that accidentally becomes a dogfighting arena. This week on 108.9 The Hawk (Val Verde’s second favorite classic rock station), Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock break down the grand opening of Woof It Up, the newest pet store in town, owned and operated by local entrepreneur Jeff Weatherman (played by the one and only Will Hines). And why is rocker Steve Winwood roaming Val Verde’s streets like a blue-eyed Terminator?!

“The Whisp Turlington Show” welcomes Joe Walsh — no relation — and Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock immediately lose control of the interview, the studio, and most municipal oversight in Val Verde. What should be a routine guest segment detonates into a full civic event as Joe Walsh (No Relation) outlines the Val Verde Rock & Roll 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Ultra Marathon, and a race philosophy built on early mornings, public bragging, and mechanical bulls used as motivational tools. Meanwhile: • Art Spart returns from a prolonged traffic hiatus • Jimmy One Meal releases a posthumous song called “Shark Sex” and no one asks permission • Jason Gore reigns supreme at 98.6 The Squirt and declares himself the greatest DJ alive • Bloody nipples, nip guards, and weaponized areolas dominate the discourse • Threads is exposed as a scolding platform and Bluesky as a joke museum • A 90s lyrics game confirms that memory is fake and lyrics never mattered Guest Starring: Dru Johnston as Joe Walsh (No Relation) Check out Dru's Substack at https://ivegottheruns.substack.com Become One With The Hawk SubscribeThe signal is everywhere.Join the Rock Battalion:1089thehawk.comSupport the station on Patreon:patreon.com/1089thehawkWatch The Hawk on YouTubeyoutube.com/@1089thehawkFollow us everywhere: Hosted on Acast.

Whisp Turlington enters 2026 determined to be “full of light” and permanently high-vibing — a plan that immediately collapses under the weight of Instagram stories, sauce-list politics, Whisp and Geoff’s rival station beef with 98.6 The Squirt, and a catastrophic misunderstanding involving Enya. As Whisp attempts to record the perfect Instagram message from the front seat of his limousine, the broadcast spirals through haunted MTV memories, dead-mall real estate, non-denominational church bands, Farmer Dan’s hell gate, sponsor live reads that absolutely should not be allowed on air, and Whisp’s revelation to Geoff of why Enya is definitely not calling in today.
