Both hands I feel like turn shoving. Hand 1 villain is 32/8 loose/passive station after just a few orbits at table.

UTG raises to $2, CO calls $2, BTN folds, SB calls $1.50, Hero raises to $10, UTG calls $8, CO calls $8, SB calls $8

Hero?

Villain is 36/19, very aggro and has been 3 betting a fair amount PF although I am yet to tangle with him. Do not know what to make of his turn bet.

Looks like your table is fairly loose in hand #1. Probably better to smooth call the min raise in hoping to flop a set while not investing a lot of money since you are out of position. Check-call small bets on turn and river since he is passive(which will make you passive as well ) . "The hooks" are tricky to play out of position and I'm not even sure check-calling is the right choice.

I don't know what to say about hand #2 as far as any good advice goes. Probably a fold? I'll let someone else take care of that

1. it doesn't get any easier than to play a station imo. check/fold. yea that card sucks but thats poker. if he doesn't like that card he'll check behind, if it helped him you'll probably see a small value bet

2. i'd shove pre, especially since he's 3 betting light. as played, I'd reraise to40-45. his weak bet looks like he's playing a hand that didn't like that turn. and with your passive play, that card could easily have hit your range.
