'''Flash FM''' is a [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] radio station hosted by DJ [[Toni]] that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. In [[1984]], Toni was accompanied by another DJ, [[Teri]]. Flash FM plays pop music and is one of the favored radio stations of the [[Streetwannabe's]]. It is also played in the [[Vice City Bikers]] bar. During the show, Toni sometimes makes off-handed sexual references to pun the station's name. This is because the term "Flash" is also a slang for removing one's clothes quickly and "flashing" a private body part, such as breasts or buttocks.
