Format

The format of the NME Radio Show is said to be more like their Xfm Shows with music rather than the purely conversational podcasts. "Gervais' show will involve banter between the trio, who have recorded a series of hugely successful, record-breaking podcasts together in the past, as well as their favourite songs."<ref>Ricky Gervais to launch NME Radio</ref>
