What The Florida?

Ep. 4 - Love Child

At 55 years old, Trish Murray's 84-year-old mother sat her down and dropped a bombshell: the man she'd called her father her whole life wasn't her biological father. Her real dad? A world-renowned German saxophonist who played alongside Nat King Cole and the great big bands — and who passed away in 1995, never knowing Trish existed. Three weeks later, she's already connected with a half-brother she never knew, and says she's not the same person she was. Alan and Trish unpack that revelation alongside a free-ranging conversation about why people stopped communicating, what dual-income families did to the kids who raised themselves, and whether love really is the answer to everything (spoiler: Alan's skeptical, Trish is not). Recorded live at Pod Populi in downtown Boca Raton, this one gets real fast — and never quite comes back down. Have a story? Call us: 954-294-0774

Ep. 3 - Cracker Jacks, Clacking Balls, Ambien Hour & Other Florida Conversations

What happens when two former radio personalities turn on the microphones with absolutely no script, no plan, and no filter? This episode of What the Florida?! goes completely off the rails—in the best possible way. Alan Knight and Trish Murray bounce from childhood memories of Photo Mats, Cracker Jack prizes, and Denny's at 3 a.m. to stories about radio careers, celebrity encounters, old concerts, Ambien adventures, shark attacks, sports heartbreak, and the increasingly strange state of modern society. Along the way, they discuss: • Why today's Cracker Jack prizes are a national disappointment • The biggest NBA comeback and the bet that got away • Growing up with radio, Adam-12, and elevator operators • Concert memories featuring Heart, Don Rickles, and Edwin McCain • Why Alan refuses to park his nice car in South Florida parking lots • Roller coasters, Jaws, and irrational fears • The mystery of the infamous "clacking balls" toy • Why manners seem to be disappearing—and whether they're making a comeback • Shark attacks in Florida waters • The dangers of Ambien Hour phone calls • Why Denny's remains a sacred institution after midnight As always, the conversation zigzags through nostalgia, current events, personal stories, and the uniquely bizarre moments that make you stop and say: "What the Florida?!"

Ep. 2 - Ambien, Tarot Cards, and the Truth About Everything — A Late Night Spiral with Alan & Trish

What happens when you FaceTime your co-host at 10:19 PM while on Ambien? Apparently, a full hour of tarot card readings, life confessions, and surprisingly deep conversations — and then you just keep going the next day on the podcast. In this episode, Alan Knight and Trish Murray do what they do best: absolutely nothing scripted. They kick things off with Alan's late-night Ambien adventures (including a true story involving a scraped bumper, a corner store, and zero memory of any of it), Trish's accidental jail stint courtesy of a narcissist ex, and somehow end up covering Miss Cleo, Wolf of Wall Street, Disney World, and the smell of a brand new Honda Accord ruined by a gyro-eating brother. But don't let the chaos fool you — this episode gets real. Alan and Trish dive into media propaganda, the Joe Rogan effect on elections, COVID vaccines, and why they don't believe much of what they're told anymore. Plus: AI-generated musicians, the dying art of radio, mixtapes, and a Range Rover story involving Trish's son that you will not forget. It's South Florida unfiltered. No script, no filter, no apologies. 📞 Call or leave a message: 954-294-0774 for a chance to win a gift card to Mississippi Sweets Barbecue in Boca Raton.

Ep. 1 - Boy Scouts, Bad Boys & Butter Pecan Ice Cream

Trish and Alan kick off the WTF podcast with zero filter and zero plan — covering narcissists, bad relationships, conspiracy theories, Florida chaos, and somehow ending the episode on a live call with Alan's 90-year-old mom. Buckle up, buttercup.
