I haven't listened yet actually because I have way too much going on. But my friend Michelle says it's awesome and it's about 30 minutes long. It's from January 17th. Apparently he is quite ghetto in this interview (shock!) and it's from Japan. Enjoy! :)

I saw that already, its a good interview. I love the stuff he says about Benji :)
The audio isn't working for a lot of people, so someone typed up a point form transcript. If the audio doesn't work, you can check this out:

-his girl situation: he likes Japanese girls, his lovelife at the moment is no good (poor Joely)
-then he introduces The Anthem: "yeah...represent" (fo shizzle Joel...ahem)
-then the Benj stuff I posted above: It's like having your best friend with you all the time. My brother, me and him, all we have is our band we come from an interesting situation, so we had to leave our home at a very early age so we kinda survived together, and it just became life, together, everything we did, and the band was naturally the same and we did it together. We share everything, we never are apart, we're best friends and I don't think we could live without eachother. He's my homeboy (<-- LOL) We fight but it's all good.
And then he says hi homeboy in Japanese (I think) lol
Then he says they did everything together, the band, the clothing company, the record label... and they'll always be together.
-business is crazy but him and Benj survive together
-then he talks about when they started the band and stuff... the usual
-the tour was good... some thanks in Japanese... heh
-in America they sold about 3 million records, his life changed a lot, everybody likes you, girls talk to him now... but they're still the same guys. If anything they're smarter cos they see through all that.
-which is better San Francisco or LA? Then he talks a bit about what both cities are like... He says he lives in LA so if you're looking for romance go there... haha
-his fave cities: LA, NY, DC, San Francisco, Philadelphia
-he says he loves the East Coast but West Coast has better weather
-he lives in LA cos his modelling career took off lol... he says he directs videos and produces music so he has to stay in LA otherwise he misses opportunities, he wants to stay there to work as much as he can. He wants to work hard now, cos he wants to retire young, have some babies and stuff in his thirties, then says no...
He used to have ****ty jobs now he gets the opportunities others don't have so he doesn't want to waste them, not take anything for granted.
-he still has a place in DC and he goes there a lot but his main residence is in LA
-next plan: focus on his work cos that's the only thing in his life that's going right ( poor guy), working hard, be good to friends and family, his life will take its path he's trying not to look too far ahead.
-he has been down but now he tries to keep his chin up all the time, he's seen the worst in life and now things are at its best, he's positive, he did stupid stuff now wants to do the right thing with his life, that is his goal in life.
-saying hi to kids in Japan, cool to be on the show... blah blah
-about MADE: it's going really well, they're working on bringing it to Japan, in US it's getting more on the hip hop side, even though he's in a punk band but more hip hop kids wear it, it's crossing over to different boundaries
-they sent MADE shirts to Jay Z and 50 Cent and they're wearing it lol (bet he's so very proud)
