Remember that Vincent Price movie, where he invites a bunch of former friends who haven't heard from him in over a decade to spend the night at his haunted house? This show is sort of like that -- except instead of a haunted house, it's a podcast. Oh, and the host isn't Vincent Price; it's a guy named Slacks Fitwell. And the truth is, he HAS been in touch with his co-hosts over the past decade -- mainly to ask for money, and to RSVP no to their weddings.

Whoa 104.9 is a podcast built on the revolutionary premise that three guys having a conversation in a room makes for an enjoyable, inclusive, fly-on-the-wall experience for listeners of all t-shirt sizes.

The creators of Whoa 104.9 appreciate the flexibility of the podcast format, but we also believe in "sticking with what works" when it comes to the radio medium. As such, we have a traditional FM radio name, and we also incorporate award-winning jingles and foley sounds into our show.

The program is hosted by three former editors of the second oldest and second funniest college humor magazine in the world -- Stanford University's "The Chaparral". Join Slacks and his pals (Josh and Peter) bi-weekly for humor, humour, and comedy, interspersed with tales of addiction, recovery, and redemption. Tune in for interviews with more people you've never heard of.

"Sure, I'll check out your podcast. All right, bet." -- guy in my office who probably doesn't listen to podcasts

    WFH (Whoa From Home)

    WFH (Whoa From Home)

    Special guest Dmitri forgives -- and perhaps even vindicates -- Slacks' chronic wedding-guest absenteeism.  Also, in the interest of more structure, this episode tries on a new organizing principle: "yesterday's traumas, today's tech, and tomorrow's movie recommendations".  
    Pardon the conversation's lack of topicality, but we recorded it weeks before every Buick commercial and their brother started working the health crisis into otherwise unrelated broadcasts.

    The Disco '90s

    The Disco '90s

    Slacks and his pals boogie on back to the Disco '90s, if only to promulgate some new ideas about Family Double Dare.  Other than that, this one's just a bunch of prank calls.

    Slacks tests the waters with a new tattoo idea, then waxes rhapsodic about New York City, or -- as he calls it -- "The Great Bambino".  The co-hosts chime in on topics as diverse as deep fakes, soft sciences, and 1999's "Runaway Bride".  Rounding out the episode: a few dispatches from the land of Sobriety.

    Whoa is me

    Whoa is me

    Slacks tries to quit the gym, then gets blue balls about the Popeyes chicken sandwich.  The guys review the trailer for Noah Baumbach's Marriage Story. Lastly, a story about Slack's mom.
