Fireball XL5 is the name of an indie-pop show hosted by Frank Seglenieks that for 18 years was on CKMS 100.3 FM Radio Waterloo. However, as a result of a format change in mid-2008, Fireball XL5 is now heard only as a podcast.

Of course I stole the name of the show from the 60s British Supermarionation program, which featured puppets kind of like the movie Team America.

I play alternative music that usually classified as indie-pop with the occasional feature on a particular artist or theme as well as discussions on pop culture topics of the day. I start off each show with the best song that I have heard since the last
show.

Note that the links to shows older than 6 months might not be working, if you really want those shows please send me an email and I can get them to you.

January 8, 1999

Although a new person is now alternating with us, unfortunately she was
unable to do the show this week, this means I've had to do the show 3
weeks in a row. Hopefully, soon we'll be on an alternating schedule.

Dave came on the show Jan 15, 1999, unfortunately it looks like we won't
be able to do his MP3 set, but as always he had some interesting stories
to tell.
