Radio hosts drinking whiskey & coke at 6AM, news reports from the Hollywood bowling alley, and the musical lifeblood of high school for surfers, stoners, and straight laced teens alike. This story goes inside of the height of rock radio power in L.A.

[Bob Carlson @UnFictionalBob]

One of my best friends. Matt made you forget your self-doubts and just charge forward anyway; He bossed you into doing whatever made you nervous. Then he would badger you until you felt good about yourself. Hilarious, generous and open-hearted. I’m going to miss him a lot.

[UnFictional @UnFictional]

Mauricio thought he’d left his dreams of television behind. And then, he met Xzibit.
