Benji tells Chris about his early days in Dubwar before starting up Skindred, what it was like being "a black guy in South Wales who loved the Sex Pistols", appearing on Jools Holland alongside Take That and dropping Slade at Download Festival in the middle of summer.
Plus - the time that his vest got ripped off during the first song of a show, the DJ set where there were more people on stage than in the crowd and the radio interview in which he hung up on!
Skindred are touring and playing all over the place in 2025 and they are working on new music as well - check out their website for all details! Note - there's lots of swearing on this episode!
