XRadioX
Matt and Jayce are two ex-college radio guys who became ex-professional radio guys who are now professionally guys in other professions. Their love of music and the ‘Big Idea’ of how to get radio RIGHT fuels this podcast. They dive deep into song lyrics, genres, different radio formats, and climb all over the minutiae of music! They even googled ‘minutiae’ to make sure they used it correctly. Tune in to hear rants about the music/radio industry, be a fly on the wall for interviews with special guests to discuss college radio and the music that inspired them, laugh along with some ridiculous music games and debates, and just have a lot of long-form fun, because there is NO Program Director to tell them they are doing it wrong! If you are a FAN of music, you will find yourself laughing along, shouting at the speakers, and having a good time!

Hey Xers here’s our 2nd Five Minute Album Review. This time is Rush’s Classic 2112.
Five minutes doesn’t do this album justice. Hell! The first song is over twenty minutes long. Shouldn’t the song been 21:12 long for artistic synchronicity?
ANYWAY…
Is the album good? Is it bad? Is it more that the Temples of Syrinx?
Whelp, I gotta go since ...
Welcome to a new feature of the XRadioX Podcast! We are taking albums that are new, classic, indie, and everything in between, and spending EXACTLY 5 minutes giving you our honest opinion. In a reminder of our old professional radio days, our timing needs to be exact, or I guess the podcast self-destructs or some such 'theater of the mind' nonsense.
In this inaugural episode, Matt takes on Huey Lew...

Hey Xer's!
Have you ever had to ask someone for advice? You know... Something you just couldn't figure out on your own?

Hey Xer's it's the latest and dare I say, most robotic, episode of XRadioX we've ever produced! Maybe the episode with the fake, robotic baby is a bit more robotic than this one. Maybe not?
Anyway...
