“Big fan of The Morning X. It’s fun radio plus I really enjoy the long interviews. Most radio show speed through interviews but not the Morning X. Also. Leslie’s voice is still the sexiest Voice in all of radio.”

“99X was a pivotal part of my life in the 90s and 00s. It’s great to have Barnes and Leslie (and occasionally Jimmy!) back every day. I can’t always listen live, so it’s great to have a podcast version of the new stuff - and the classic bits.”

“Fantastic mix of the old nostalgia and the new content. The chemistry between Barnes and Leslie hasn’t missed a beat. The short format makes it easy to play catch-up during the day and the podcast format means you don’t have to listen to Atlanta traffic and ads if you don’t live there anymore.”

“I moved to Atlanta in the early 90s just as 99X first hit the airwaves. So listening to Barnes Leslie and Jimmy on the radio (remember radios?) every morning on my commute was an every-weekday thing. I pretty much listen to this podcast for nostalgic reasons (I really wish Jimmy had stuck around)...”Read full review »

“Living in Atlanta in the 90s, I can remember when Power99 switched to 99X. Alternative rock was on the rise and The Morning X was the only show to listen to in the morning.
Now more than a decade after 99X went off the air, and during a time when anything remotely nostalgic helps to establish...”Read full review »
