James Brown - founding Editor of Loaded Magazine, author of 'Animal House'

  • Summary

  • Hello, Im Craig and welcome to another episode of Football Kit Memories - the football podcast that gets under the shirt.


    In today’s episode I'm joined by the founder and first editor of Loaded magazine - James Brown. 


    James recently published his memoir ‘Animal House’ which covers his life both before and after the magazine and for me it was an excellent read in the way it honestly reflects both the highs and lows of celebrity and excess during the 1990s.


    James initially began writing in Leeds during the 1980s, where he turned his passion for music into his own successful fanzine. A move to the more established music press in London followed first at Sounds and then at the NME before James was given the opportunity to set up Loaded, a title that essentially redefined male culture in the media. 


    Our chat covers the music, magazines and mayhem that James describes so well in his book, as well as his passion for football and Leeds United.


    Remember, you can listen to this and other episodes of Football Kit Memories on all major audio platforms including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
