What are some good shows from the early XM era (2004-2005)

4  2014-07-13 by [deleted]

Like many others I've been downloading show archives in case the material ever gets taken down from youtube. I was wondering if there are some recommended/must listen shows from the early era when the show had a lot of freedom. Thanks..

The Bill Burr shows from 2005 are great.

Is it the actual show or just them talking about it? I never noticed it

1  CreepyChillyGuy 2014-07-13

Both, it starts with the actual show and then goes to both times they talked about it on air.

I'm relistening to 2004 right now and it really is like a time capsule. Some things never changed though. Mic problems from day 1 and a mostly incompetent staff. The thing that stands out the most is that Jim seems to try too hard to be angry and aggressive. I know he eventually settled into a good rhythm but it's almost distracting listening to how much he yells and how angry he really used to be.

opie used to be really angry too, but I enjoyed that.. It's weird that Ant used to be the more calm one in a lot of cases.
