Big changes are rocking Val Verde, and 108.9 The Hawk has the scoop: Sharney’s has been sold! Whisp and Geoff welcome the brand-new CEO, Maria Ann Shurzabich (played by Kristen Bartlett), who’s here to explain why the legendary buffet chain is turning bad food and lots of it… into mid food and less of it.


  • Sharney’s Shake-Up: 82 locations sold off to the Schurzabich Corporation—because who needs endless buffets and multiple dead bodies in fridges?
  • From Buffets to Fidget Spinners: Turns out Sharney’s new owners made their billions selling anxiety spinners during the pandemic. 
  • The New Buffet: Say goodbye to taco stations and hello to fountains of chocolate, salsa, and boiling hot sawmill gravy (bring burn cream).
  • Kids Menu Games: What does Applebee’s serve vs. Sharney’s? Expect Big Crunch tenders and Little Cheeser burgers, plus plenty of clown horns.
  • Beach House: What's with all the creaking sounds?!


Guest Starring: Kristen Bartlett (Saturday Night Live, How To Die Alone, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee)


Here’s how YOU can support Val Verde’s second choice for rock, 108.9 The Hawk
