You thought that man was the don, but he gave you the FEVER
Radio X > everything else
Gta3s k-jah was the peak for me (but it was nasty in San Andreas). I did a lot of nsx as well
The Glory hole ads were amusing everytime i heard it
We used to just leave a vehicle parked somewhere while we made dinner or did other stuff and let the radio play!
People sometimes would stop by and realize, after a bit of convo, they were hearing something and be baffled as to what the hell we were listening too.
My friends and I would do the same thing. When we got tired of playing, but wanted to keep listening to the music or talk shows.
The talk radio was the best! I was not a fan of most talk radio past morning shows but I loved all of the GTA ones. Somehow it made more sense listening to their off the wall shit than the real talk radio stations.
I used to love listening to Chatterbox on GTA 3. Lazlo and the Hispanic guy used to make me laugh like crazy, and now I listen to NPR and podcasts so I guess I eventually learned to like talk radio.
There’s a little subgenre of podcasts with a similar vibe. Try “Welcome to Nightvale” and “Beef and Dairy Network”. Though I’m sure there are slightly less weird options out there too.
Oh, I have listened to Wlcome to Nightvale! I liked the SCP archives too. I will have to check out Beef and Diary Network as soon as I get to a pause point on Box of Oddities. It may have been that GTA radio that had me prepped for podcasts.
I have at least listened to it more
I can’t change your mind, I agree right down to the “vice city was the best one,” you’re right.
It made me nostalgic for so many classics of the 70s/80s that I hadn’t heard before playing it.
Loved Vice City. The music was fire in that game.
The talk radio is for sure. Dr. Ray De Angelo Harris aka JB Smoove.
Hit me with the stick!
Chakra Attack!
Gardening with Maurice was nice. Actually all the shows on WCTR.
Have also been guilty of leaving the car parked and listening to the radio. Download the files from YouTube while they’re hot :)
They’re on yt? Yeah, I might go for that.

I still listen to KDST on regular basis.
GTA radio is literally just songs that used to play on the RL radio 😂
The announcers and commercials are better in GTA, thus better than IRL
Well, the deejays were people that were already famous for other things, so yeah, slight advantage there 😅
Fernando Martinez never fails to make me laugh
Fernando’s New Beginnings?
He’s not a pimp he’s a miracle worker
Cinco cinco cinco. Nuevo dos, nuevo dos!
GTA 3 radio got me into a few different sounds as a kid.
I had a software that ripped gta music and ads and shuffled them so you can burn a cd to play in your car with the same in game radio.
Loved cruising around with k-rose on from San Andreas. The ads kill me every time.
I wonder how long it would take for a passenger in the car to figure out it’s not real radio…
I need it
Radio Broker and Electro-Choc were ridiculously influential on my later music preferences.
