Summary: Radio X is an Alternative and period modern rock radio station hosted by Sage (voiced by Jodie Shawback[4]). Sage is a very self-obsessed woman and self-confessed rebel who seems to always be worked up about something, making her a stereotypical Gen X-er. Sage has a bleak outlook on life and her most apparent obsessions are the sound of her own voice, along with sex as she admits to have slept with the entire Danzig line-up, along with a man she did behind the Cluckin Bell, and pleads could somebody please sleep with me! during the outro to Soundgardens Rusty Cage, amongst at least two other references. She comes from an upper class suburban family that gave her a trust fund, which she takes shame in, stating that she is poor in spirit. Sage has strong dislike towards people over the age of 29, believes in reincarnation and admits to having huffed paint and ether. Sage reacts negatively to the in-game events barring the Los Santos riots, and gets excited when the forecast predicts rain.
Radio X picks up a couple of callers, however these two callers are both voiced by Jeff Berlin who voices and produces the Radio X imaging. The name itself is a possible reference on Generation X, who came of age and were the main listeners of the genre in the early 90s, and/or Detroits alt-rock radio station 89X Radio, which was founded in the very early 90s.

Summary: K-DST The Dust is a classic rock station originating in San Fierro and hosted by Tommy The Nightmare Smith (voiced by Guns N Roses frontman Axl Rose[4]), former frontman for the fictional 70s progressive rock band, Crystal Ship, which is also the title of a song by The Doors. Smith is surprisingly calm and constantly reminds the listeners about the 1970s and the classic rock n roll lifestyle. He dislikes Sage, the Radio X DJ, telling her to get over it! during the intro to Tom Pettys Runnin Down a Dream. In one broadcast, Tommy The Nightmare Smith says that, all we need is patience, I said it before and Ill say it again, probably referring to the Guns N Roses song Patience.

![Sonic The Hedgehog - Special Stage II
Sonic the Hedgehog (ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ Sonikku za Hejjihoggu?), trademarked Sonic The Hedgehog,[2] is a title character and the protagonist of the Sonic the Hedgehog series released by Sega, as well as in numerous spin-off comics, cartoons, and a feature film. The first game was released on June 23, 1991, to provide Sega with a mascot to rival Nintendos flagship character Mario (see 1991 in video gaming).[3][4] Since then, Sonic has become one of the worlds best-known video game characters, with his series having sold more than 80 million copies.[5] In 2005, Sonic was one of the first game character inductees into the Walk of Game, alongside Mario and Link.[6]
While many individuals at Sega had a hand in Sonics creation, programmer Yuji Naka and artist Naoto Ōshima are generally credited with the creation of the character,[7] a blue 15-year-old anthropomorphic hedgehog, who has the ability to run at supersonic speeds and the ability to curl into a ball, primarily to attack enemies. This is a major part of the gameplay of the series. Sonic The Hedgehog - Special Stage II](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SnG2i-HnZKI/mqdefault.jpg)
