Ben Lee | Romance, Cults & World Expo 88

Ben Lee began his career as a young teenager in the early 90’s, in the Australian lo-fi punk band Noise Addict, who were discovered by Sonic Youth and the Beastie Boys. That began an extraordinary career that has been both eclectic and eccentric. Ben has put out over 20 solo albums that have made romantics swoon for multiple generations and catapulted him to national treasure status. But enough of all that, we're here to talk about fwendship! In this episode, Ben talks about being occasionally guilty of fair-weather friendship, of friendship within cults, setting friendships loose, World Expo 88, showbiz superfriends, the necessity for admiration in friendship, friendship in family, and his perpetual search for romance in all things.CONTACTText - 0431 345 145Email - fwendspod@gmail.comMail - PO Box 24144, Melbourne, Vic, 3001RATE AND REVIEWOf course you've already subscribed or followed the show, now we'd love you to leave a rating and a review.
