I recently watched "Kick Out the Jams: The Story of XFM" did anyone else see this?
As someone who missed out on the 1990's, highly enjoyable viewing for me. I think we have some on here from the radio world, were any of you around the time this popped up/ remember listening to it in the early days?
Sounds like it was quite anarchic, I grew up listening to old XFM podcasts with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington, I still listen and enjoy to them today even though I've heard them 100 times. The Radio seemed to focus on Britpop so I'm sure I'd have been tuning in if it was more my era.
Was eventually bought out by Capital and became another mainstream radio station, bit of a shame, sounds like an amazing place in time.
Edit: Free to watch if you have Amazon Prime.
