Show Notes
There was a time when magazines like FHM, Loaded, Nuts and Zoo were everywhere, packed with outrageous interviews, football, comedy, celebrity culture and the kind of humour that defined an entire generation of British lads.

But where did they all go?
In this reaction, Terry Stone looks back at the rise and fall of lads’ mags, the culture that surrounded them and the reasons they disappeared from British shelves. Did the internet simply kill print, did society move on, or have we lost a bit of the humour and freedom that made that era so memorable?
Not everything from those days has aged well, but there’s no denying the impact lads’ mags had on British culture. Were they harmless entertainment, a product of their time, or was their disappearance long overdue?
Let us know what you think in the comments and which lads’ magazine you used to buy!
