IC RADIO Matt, since leaving IC last summer you've only made a few appearances on the show, leaving Sam to flounder through on his own. Sam, you've been reported to be suffering from chronic suicidal depression, as illustrated in this photo. What do you have to say?

Matt and Sam, the dynamic duo of radio, are rarely visible to the p u b l i c eye. They exist i n a fantasy w o r l d , removing themselves from society as a whole. However, after some coaxing but mainly blatant threatening they have emerged, dirty and smelly, from their hermit cave i n the furthest reaches of Outer Bayswater to give this exclusive interview to Felix: A n o t h e r h i g h q u a l i t y w e b - c a m photo So, guys, why did you call your

show

'The Matt 'n' Sam Show?' M a t t : Well, w e were going to go w i t h just 'and' but for artistic purposes w e eventually w ent for 'n.'

Sam: No. Sorry, it's his ego. By the w a y if any w a n t s to listen in w e ' d really appreciate it. Talking to yourself for t w o hours isn't fun... no honestly!!!

Sam: Well, yeah, it's depressing sitting there on your o w n but it's probably better than being stuck in there w i t h this boring bastard! M a t t : A t least I don't cock u p the equipment all the time. S a m : Try and do the s h o w without me then you cheeky bastard...

Sam: Lack of originality, really... What sort of music do you play? What's your show all about? M a t t : It's an orgasmic b l e n d of sensuous music, hilariously a m u s i n g features and sickeningly professional links. S a m : Yeah, complete bollocks really... Do you have many

listeners?

M a t t : Yes

M a t t : Not telling you. S a m : The wanker's in a sulk now. Don't worry, just give h i m one of those lollies a n d h e ' l l shut u p for while...We play everything from up-to-the-minute dance tracks to classic tunes from M C Hammer and Nick Kershaw... actually w e don't really play his songs (nervous laughter).

A t this point the interview degenerated into something out of M o r t a l Kombat, the scenes are not suitable for children, students and domesticated animals. You can tune into the M a t t 'n' Sam show every Saturday at midday o n IC Radio 999Mhz A M and icradio.com. Alternatively you couldn't.
