TV Interview on The Couch

This weekend I flew to the other side of the country, to appear on national TV for an interview for Enjoy Yourself Clothing. The interview is on a variety talk show called The Couch, and airs on Fridays on the Aurora Channel (Channel 183) on Foxtel. Tune in this Friday for the interview, discussion of inspirations, beginnings and meanings. If you're unable to see it on TV (like myself since I'll be working, but Foxtel IQ got me covered), the clip shall appear on YouTube shortly. Support your local movements.



Cheers,

Will.

Kush Now. Detox Later.

Check out the song below, it features long time friend Snoop Dogg, and Akon.
