S1 Ep5: From The Stage To The Cage - Ian Watkins
Thank you for taking the time to tune into ICMAP! You may hear the audio quality is not quite up the standard of Series 2 onwards - we were still finding our feet as a podcast. Rest assured, the production quality does improve ♥️💀
The penultimate episode of I Could Murder A Podcast’s first series sees Tom and Ben make their way to the South Wales Valleys (and back to their teenage years) as they cover the deeply disturbing case of disgraced former Lostprophets Frontman Ian Watkins: From The Stage To The Cage...
It’s mid-2012, a trend set this side of the millennium continues to thrive – as rock, punk and metal bands continue to push, barge and charge their way into top music charts all over the world. Charts of which, traditionally dominated by more popular varieties the industry has to offer; Linkin Park, Sum 41, Limp Bizkit, Blink-182 and many others continue to vie for their place at the top. With this, more eyes than ever are on your band ‘Lostprophets’, a 6-piece Alternative Rock group from South Wales that have taken the world by storm. The band are celebrating the release of their fifth album ‘Weapons’. Years and years of touring “the valleys” music circuit, headlining shows, tours and festivals the world over; as well as relentless days and nights on the road all around the world are culminating to this precise moment as you realise
you’ve well and truly made your mark in the history books. You wake up. Dry mouth, beating heart. A phone full of missed calls, voicemails, and texts messages. This can’t be real? You turn the TV on, jump online, switch the radio on – all as quickly as possible – This can’t be real? The headlines blind and burn. None of the information can be absorbed. This can’t be real? Unfathomable, 15 years of your life is down the drain. Your friend, your family, your leader, a man that
held your children in his hands: Ian Watkins. Everywhere. Ingrained. Unavoidable. Unforgivable... This can’t be real?
What prompted a man who seemingly had it all to commit such disgusting and despicable acts? How did he continue to get away with it for over four years? To what extent were the victim’s parents complicit? How did THREE DIFFERENT regional police forces fail to stop him? And what in the world is MEGA LOLZ?
Tune in, and all will be revealed!
