My ’90s – NICK GRIMSHAW – “I saw Beckham and knew I was gay”

Diving deep into all things ’90s… He made his name at the heart of the ’00s indie explosion, became a mainstay of breakfast radio, and has since become a podcasting sensation with his shows Dish with Angela Hartnett, and Sidetracked with Annie Mac… but where did it all begin? Today, we are speaking to presenter, DJ, podcaster and best friend to the nation, Nick Grimshaw, who joins Miranda in our ’90s haven to discuss growing up in Madchester during the heyday of Britpop, finding his identity in the pages of a football magazine care of a David Beckham centrefold, the ultimate gay icons Kylie and Madge, and how the ’90s, Manchester itself – and listening to his ‘Hardcore Ecstasy’ tape age six in the back of the family Fiesta – embedded in him a belief that music and culture mattered, a belief he’s carried the torch for since! • ⁠Sign up to support us on Patreon⁠ to help the podcast AND get merch and extra material too.
