Duran Duran joins host Stephen Kallao

At the core of Duran Duran are four friends who’ve been making music together for decades. Simon Le Bon joins the show to talk about how that friendship has grown over the years. We’ll also talk about how his voice sounds as good as ever, and why their seminal 1982 album Rio still sounds amazing.

This is an encore
