Bangkok's Seven Deadly Sins: Lust [Season 4, Episode 45]

Bangkok's Seven Deadly Sins: Lust [Season 4, Episode 45]

Greg and Ed continue their 'Seven Deadly Sins' series with LUST - yep, we go there. Well, figuratively, anyway. On the record, the guys don't actually recommend that you visit any of the red light districts in Bangkok - there are so many more interesting things to do in the city that aren't as...potentially icky. But let's be honest - they remain a huge draw, and if you live here long enough, you'll eventually end up at one of them.

Topics include where to go, how to behave, what to do, what not to do, and in general, what to watch out for while still having a good time. Whether you are an actual fan of these 'adult' districts, just curious, or a long-term expat who might agree or disagree with our take, have a listen so you can avoid the 'noob' mistakes that Greg and Ed may have, hypothetically, made. (OK, we did.)

As always, the podcast will continue to be 100% funded by listeners just like you who get some special swag from us. And we'll keep our Facebook, Twitter, and LINE accounts active so you can send us comments, questions, or whatever you want to share.
