Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from April 20, 2022 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

What Carlson and his guest were saying is dousing your junk with red light might increase testosterone "because why wouldn't you try that" which ended up being too much for even Kid Rock

I've known the Regrettes way before they got popular. One time they posted something very stupid. And I told them to stop posting dumb political stuff... They actually deleted the post, but a bunch of their dumb fans blasted me....
