'''Chatterbox FM''' is a radio station owned by [[Donald Love]]'s [[Love Media]]. It is hosted and produced by [[Lazlow]] (who also co-wrote the script along with [[Dan Houser]]). Chatterbox FM is the only radio station in the game which does not feature music; like talk radio stations in the real world, Chatterbox features a format in which listeners call in with opinions, concerns, and complaints, and the host responds with their take on the situation. The station also features two long interviews with [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] characters — one with the pacifist, organic food-eating martial artist [[Reed Tucker]], and one with the "cheap pimp from upstate", [[Fernando Martinez]] (who would become a recurring character in the GTA series, on- and off-radio). Chatterbox FM is the [[Liberty City Triads|Triads]]' favorite radio station. | '''Chatterbox FM''' is a radio station owned by [[Donald Love]]'s [[Love Media]].

The callers and calls include a man calling to tell Lazlow that he needs a nanny to spank him (a call so popular it would spawn a similar call about witches in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and even its own commercial in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]); a man calling in regard to taxes (which he pronounces like "Texas"); [[Toni Cipriani]] calling with an embarrassing story about his mother; a [[Barry Stark|man who hates clothes]] ("Does a lion wear clothes? And the lion is the king of the jungle!"); and [[Maria Latore]] calling regarding relationship troubles with her boyfriend, [[Claude]] (the mute protagonist of GTA III; Maria complains that "he don't talk much"). | The callers and calls include a man calling to tell Lazlow that he needs a nanny to spank him (a call so popular it would spawn a similar call about witches in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and even its own commercial in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]); a man calling in regard to taxes (which he pronounces like "Texas"); [[Toni Cipriani]] calling with an embarrassing story about his mother; a [[Barry Stark|man who hates clothes]] ("Does a lion wear clothes?

In GTA Liberty City Stories, which is set three years before GTA III, Lazlow's callers are diverse but generally offensive, including someone who wants to knock down the Liberty City cathedral, a gothic girl wanting to cast spells on Lazlow, a foul-mouthed cannibal who asks why he can't eat people, a man obsessed with shaving, a 7-year-old boy with a very foul mouth, and a man complaining about [[Vinewood]] ("if I see one more damn movie with ten kids, a dog in a wheelchair and some damn baseball championship. I'm going to start killing people and blame it on Vinewood"). [[Ma Cipriani]], the mother of the game's main character, also calls in, but gets angry with Lazlow, calling him Lazarus, and threatening him with a [[Mafia]] assassination.
