The Film Stage

Mar 30, 2016

Chronicling the complexities and character flaws of the institution, Sex and Broadcasting is thankfully not entirely a promotional video nor a fan’s love letter, but a genuine character study, for the most part.

Sex and Broadcasting is at once heartfelt, gritty, and informative, and you don’t really want it to end.

By Sam Weisberg FULL REVIEW

The New York Times

Mar 30, 2016

Professionally comfortable with improvising, the D.J.s make for affable company, and it’s amusing to watch radio from behind the scenes. But a tinge of melancholy also hovers over the movie.

By Ben Kenigsberg FULL REVIEW

Movie Nation

Dec 5, 2017

A fascinating block of broadcasting trapped in amber, a little radio history about passionate people doing something they love, willing to beg for bucks on the air to continue doing it and finding enough kindred spirits, “people who don’t quite fit in” in a shrinking sea of radio listeners to cling to FM life a little longer.
