Radio X

Radio X, referred to as Radio:X in its logo, is an alternative rock/heavy metal/grunge music station in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It is hosted by Sage, an escaped mental patient who holds extremely pessimistic world views. A proud member of Generation X, she is very outspoken against the previous generation and constantly speaks her views on air between songs. Radio X appears to be based on the real-life radio station X103.9 - "The I.E.'s Alternative Rock."

Trivia

 * The "X" in Radio X is reference to the "X" generation, teens and young adults born from 1960s to the 1980s.
 * Sage is the host's real name, saying, "Yes, Sage is my real name, and if you don't believe me, you can go fuck yourself!"
 * Sage also says the reason she calls herself "Sage" is because she can't remember her last name.
 * The station is the default station when the player enters an Andromada, Buffalo, or PCJ-600.
 * "Head Like a Hole", originally by Nine Inch Nails, was covered by A.F.I. and is featured as a bonus track to the soundtrack collection, even though it's not featured in-game. The original song would most likely be featured on Radio X, given the genre of the song and station.

 * The song, "Unsung" by Helmet also appears on Saints Row 2.
