I Got Sober to Not Be an A**hole with Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols Bassist)

Glen Matlock... yes, that Glen Matlock, original bassist for the Sex Pistols, has a story about sobriety that’s as loud, messy, and unfiltered as the music that made him famous.

In this episode, we cover:

• The day a bag of crisps literally shouted his own name back at him (seriously)

• Why he quit drinking after realizing he was “fed up with making a c*nt” of himself

• What he says when people call him boring now (spoiler: it’s not an apology)

• How watching drunk people repeat themselves on a loop is more boring than any sober night in

• The time a pub owner swore he saw Glenn in the movie Arthur, and Glenn didn’t even know he was in it

• Why staying off the booze for decades might just be the most punk rock thing he’s ever done

This isn’t your tidy redemption arc, it’s a raw, funny, and sometimes ridiculous look at what it takes to survive fame, punk, and yourself.
