With a team of young hopefuls, they birthed Loaded, a magazine that went on to define the lad culture of the 90s. The magazine quickly became a cultural phenomenon, offering a blend of irreverent humor, gonzo journalism, celebrity interviews, sports and jaw-dropping images, tapping into the aspirations, interests and rebellious attitudes of young men, and capturing a hedonistic lifestyle characterized by excess, humor and indulgence. And the women's equivalent, 'ladettes', were not far behind. But as they hurtled towards the end of the century, the realities of lad culture took hold, with drink, drugs and bravado rearing their ugly heads. Lads' mags were born, driving the pressure to compete with 'sexy babes' on the covers. The women who had felt empowered were now being asked to strip for the magazines. Featuring candid interviews from those in the engine room of the magazine, as well as those who were watching on from the outside - Irvine Welsh, Gail Porter, David Baddiel, Katie Puckrick, Miranda Sawyer and Miki Berenyi.
