On Episode 5 of the RFC Podcast we’re breaking down GUV I & II, the ambitious label-debut from the enigmatic YOUNG GUV. Guv aka Ben Cook joins us from his newest homestead of Lisbon and we discuss his career in detail. We try (and fail) to estimate the number of studio credits Guv has blessed us with,  from his early days founding Toronto’s legendary NO WARNING to touring with Fucked Up, with time since with criminally underrated acts like The Marvelous Darlings and Violent Minds. We also touch on how the beautiful team up of GUV and RFC went down as all beautiful beginnings do - in DMs on instagram. Ben gives insight on how Young Guv started over 15 years ago and how that’s blossomed into an incredible musical journey of its own with more music to come on the way.

We also discuss Scott Vogel & producing a TERROR album, the nomadic lifestyle that followed writing and releasing GUV I & II, being on your rocker sh*t, seeing Oasis 15 times, Streetfight by Breakdown, wearing suits, considering corny love songs, and much more.
