Episode Synopsis


Beastie Boy, keen surfer and all round good guy Mike D came in to Take 5 on a brief visit to Australia in 2014. Despite only being in the country for a few days on a surfing trip, Zan convinced him to spend an hour playing DJ and sharing songs from his home town of New York City. Across the five boroughs, they explored the lifelong story of his legendary band, and Mike's own music fandom while reflecting on the past, present and future of music making in the wake of bandmate MCA's death.Notorious B.I.G. - "Juicy"The Strokes - "12:51"Nas - "N.Y.
