West Coast Talk Radio: Difference between revisions

In [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], '''West Coast Talk Radio''' or '''WCTR''' is a talk radio show with many liberals, conservatives, and exotic people. It is owned by [[Ammu-Nation]]. Headquartered in Los Santos, WCTR consists of several programs:

* '''[[WCTR News]]''': Hosted by Lianne Forget (Sharon Washington) with Richard Burns (Wil Wheaton), which features up-to-date news in the [[State of San Andreas]], often reporting incidents that happened in a mission, such as the stealing of a [[Hydra]] plane in the mission [[Vertical Bird]].

* '''[[The Tight End Zone]]''': Sports program hosted by Derrick Thackery (Peter Appel). Thackery does not actually care as much about the sports he loves than the passions aroused from it. He was molested by his uncle when he was younger.

* '''[[The Wild Traveler]]''': Travel program hosted by James Pedeaston (Sam Tsoutsouvas). Pedeaston is a child molester wanted in Malaysia and is currently being investigated by the FBI. He enjoys traveling the world and logging some of his most 'exotic' encounters in his travelogue, some of which he accidentally reads on-air to the (unintentional) disgust of listeners. His show appears to be so reviled by his listeners that at one point, he receives no calls at all.

* '''[[Entertaining America]]''': Entertainment program hosted by Billy Dexter (Peter Marx) and later [[Lazlow]], featuring various guests. Dexter is accidentally shot in the head by a gun-wielding Jack Howitzer (star of the Exploder movie from Vice City) and after a rather lengthy hiatus (which includes Howitzer's subsequent conviction on WCTR news) is replaced by Lazlow.

* '''[[Gardening with Maurice]]''': Gardening show hosted by Maurice (Andy Dick). Maurice is a rather horny personality that not only loves his gardens, but his own body as well. For example, he likes to take pictures of both when they are "blossoming." He also offers unorthodox advice and unusual plant suggestions to callers.

* '''[[I Say/You Say]]''': Political debate show hosted by husband-and-wife liberal-and-conservative team of Peyton Phillips (Paul Ames) and Mary Phillips (Jackie Hoffman). Peyton and Mary are caricatures of their ideologies, Peyton having communist inclinations while Mary plays 'greedy capitalist'. For example, when dealing with a caller that had recently buried the corpses of numerous illegal immigrants in his backyard, Mary advises the caller on how to use the corpses to evade his taxes while Peyton mentions recycling and organ donation. Early shows feature a desperate [[Lazlow]] looking for a radio job, asking if he can take Peyton's and stating that he used to be on the radio "back in the day", referring to his jobs as radio talk show host of [[V-Rock]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and as the host of [[Chatterbox FM]] in [[Grand Theft Auto III]].

* '''[[Lonely Hearts Show]]''': Relationship advice program hosted by Christy MacIntyre (Sara Moon), featuring [[Fernando Martinez]] (Frank Chavez) of [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] fame; he briefly mentions being "chased out" (of Vice City) and alludes to a "Five Alarm Fire".

* '''[[Area 53]]''': A Coast to Coast AM spoof hosted by Marvin Trill (Bob Sevra). The show is dedicated to conspiracy theories and UFO sightings.
