Show was terrible. Have no idea who this dude is, checked it out and all they do is talk about youtube.
WhoCareZ am I right?

That's true for you but for people who know who he is, or wanted to know more, it was interesting enough.  The YouTube talk is relevant since many pro skaters are just now  starting to do it. So it makes sense to give credit to the original people who took that leap, even if you'll never like the idea of it.  Obviously Crob is interested in it since the show is mainly viewed via YouTube as well.

One person's "boring" is another's "interesting". All there are are opinions and no one's opinion is more right than another's.   I know this doesn't jive well with people who want to feel better than someone else, but that's just ego man. The Big Lebowski hates your fascist ways, man.

[close]

Sorry, I like the shows normally even when I don’t know who it is. But this episode was not entertaing in the least not even for background noise. YouTube is not  skateboarding. And this guy was not pleasant to listen to.

Maybe you can change my mind by donating some cash my way. 

My point was that it was interesting for some people, just not you, not to change your mind. I hear you though, not all episodes hit the same for anyone, we'll all have are favorites or even ones we didn't care for much. Hopefully you'll like the next one.

random but, i really appreciated the keenan ode segment today. when jeron realizes that he would be 49 today… the look in his face almost made my eyes trickle. it was like you could feel that it kind of just hit him out of nowhere in that moment how long it has been and then he remembered he’s on camera. like for a very split moment he just seemed paused in disbelief of the time & kind of visioning his time with him or something. the ‘b-roll’ was just another reminder of how naturally stylish keenan really was, i often think about how big of an impact he would have made if that hadnt happened. like an actual planned full part in yeah right, a part in skate more if he didn’t dip to dc and join the dc video, pretty sweet.. all of it. imagining what could have been with keenan is equally as awesome as it is tough.

rest in peace keenan.

I just got around to watching this episode. You can definitely see Jeron getting emotional. I don't blame him.  Keenan's skateboarding definitely left an impression on my young mind. He was my inspiration for wanting to learn sw flips. I still get chills every time I hear Worldwide.

[RoughStylin]

I don’t normally tune into the experience shows but did this week to hear BTS Lakai video chat with Vincent. Really dope episode. The Batb stuff was super dribbly, had to fast forward through that, but the Lakai, Keenan, and Jenkem stuff was sick to listen to/watch. Didn’t expect to enjoy it so much. Crob, Vincent and Jeron have a strong natural chemistry on camera, and good to have Tim fact checking off camera. Will give the show another chance.

Fuck dunno what happened to this, but have edited it.  This link should timestamp (around 2h 14m) to the moment Crob transitioned from Patrick sharing an anecdote about his kids to his mail getting lost.  It's so weird I had to rewind it to make sure my brain didn't just fuckin' die.

I liked the Foy/Praman episode. Never paid too much attention to either guy but they were pretty fun and thoughtful together. Seemed like crob had done some research too.

I just checked this out and the first half is pretty good, apart from Crob repeatedly asking if he was getting paid more as the show grew.  knew he was talking about Twan when he said certain people were really upset with their episodes...then going to "hows he doing these days" made me lol. 

Funny how he mentioned how the Arto episodes werent up and Vice uploaded them yesterday

Yeah, decent slap chat.  Nine Club are obviously salty, but the only people who hate Slap are the ones who deserve the criticisms levelled at them.

Sounds like a Seinfeld bit. Someone talking about their kids which are not your kids, so just start taking about Newman stealing your mail.
