GTA Liberty City Stories: LCFR - The ElectronZone Talk show discussing technology related topics. Hosted by Bill and Steve. Bill represents the (More) Talk show discussing technology related topics. Hosted by Bill and Steve. Bill represents the "Fruit OS" users, an obvious parody of Apple's Mac OS. Steve represents "TOS" users which stands for Technical Operating System and is a parody of Microsoft's DOS. Users of TOS are referred to as tossers, an obvious allusion to the slang term tosser, a popular insult in the UK, which is where the Grand Theft Auto games are produced. The talk show hosts are also apparently caricatures of Microsoft chairman Bill Gates and Apple CEO Steve Jobs. The show's callers are largely a pack of internet nerds or internet haters - a reference to the Matrix films is also made when a woman calls in asking about a virtual reality movie called The Mainframe. A woman named Denise calls the show, saying that someone has to deal with the Internet because it is ruining TV. Bill and Steve annoy her a bit.
In one segment, Richard Burns from WCTR in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas calls in, mentioning that he was fired shortly after the (1992 Los Santos) riots (during his report on the riots in San Andreas, he was heard to brag about looting on-air, among other things) and that he now runs a website on the history of the Internet. A man named Ken from Carcer City also calls in complaining that the FBI is monitoring him for viewing an unspecified form of pornography (Bill thinks that it's child pornography, though the man mentioning "several toasted meat pastries coming out of his microwave" before he hangs up implies a fetish even more bizarre).
Its disappearance from Liberty City's airwaves by 2001 is likely a reference to the dot com boom of the late 1990s. (Less)
