Before there was Gatorbox... there was RFSHQ. Well, there actually were a lot of things "before Gatorbox" but this is one of them. Back in 2004 fresh off of a split from a failed project of a similar nature Draco, who went by the moniker "RFS" at the time, set out to create an internet video series... pre-YouTube. The series, named "The Radio F Show", became supplemental material to the RFSHQ comedy website. 51 episodes were created over the course of two years. This special presentation collections some of the better ones (or as we call it "the least worst").

Coming up on May 10, 2024 we will be doing a special RFSHQ 20th Anniversary stream (the website originally launched on May 9, 2004 with a review I wrote about The Adventures of Bayou Billy, which I'll be reading as part of the show). This video feature will be part of the stream with bonus commentary between each episode as it's aired. For now however this presentation is available to Patreon supporters early so you can watch it if you like. You'll wind up watching it twice if you do though since this will be aired on the special stream. So, uh, I don't know why I made this early access. I'm not good at this Patreon stuff.

Anyways "The Radio F Show" featured a who's who of Gatorbox alum featuring a very young Reflex as well as appearances by stream collaborators Akimbo Shark and Steel Pinata who have contributed to the stream without actually appearing on camera. It's a rare look into what the cast and crew were up to in simpler times.

The Least Worst of "The Radio F Show" (20th Anniversary, 2004 - 2024)

"The Radio F Show" was an early internet video series that debuted on the long defunct comedy website RFSHQ between the years of 2004 and 2006. It ran for 51 total episodes spanning five "seasons". It was predominately written by RFS who would go on to be known as Draco From Gatorbox... better known as the host of, well, Gatorbox. Fellow Gatorbox alum Reflex appears in the show as a kid as does Gator Company collaborators Akimbo Shark and Steel Pinata. This is a rare glimpse of what they did before the rise of Gatorbox. This feature is being uploaded as Patreon early access content however the Gatorbox stream on May 10, 2024 is dedicated to the 20th Anniversary of RFSHQ which opened on May 9, 2004 with a satirical review of the NES game The Adventures of Bayou Billy written by Draco. This presentation as well as a live reading of the Bayou Billy article will be showcased on the stream.
