About this episode

The episode recounts the chaotic experiences of Goldie Lookin Chain during their trip to Japan in 2005, including jet lag, advanced toilets, and the recording of their album 'Safe As Fck*'.

🎧 Goldie Lookin Chain Podcast – Episode 17 This week the boys head back to 2005 and the legendary GLC trip to Japan — a long flight, heavy jet lag, brandy at breakfast, and toilets so advanced they changed lives forever. From playing Sonic Mania and sharing dressing rooms with Marilyn Manson, to nearly getting arrested for hanging out of hotel windows, it’s a chaotic look at GLC going international for the first time. Plus: recording  Safe As F ck* at Rockfield, two weeks of “creative exploration,” modern art disasters in Lambeth Street, and the plate-smashing incident that probably ended an era. It’s culture. It’s history. It’s bidets. Long way to Japan though. BECOME A MEMBER OF THE GOLDIE LOOKIN PODCAST ON PATREON Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
