Weird people are putting Jonah Hill and Mikey in the same camp. Jonah Hill is way cooler than Mikey Alfred. I've always thought Mikey was the worst, but when that interview came out talking shit on Spike Jones, that was the final straw. Hopefully he gets blacklisted from Hollywood.

Yeah like Jonahs at least actually done a bunch of legit stuff. Problem with blacklisting and banning people is in their minds it just reaffirms their belief that everyone's trying to hold them back and that's why they aren't successful and not their general lack of talent.

Re: Jonah. People give him shit about his lack of talent, but that’s totally relatable. Not everyone who loves skateboarding is required to have talent at it and he clearly has always had an affection for it. I suck, but I’ve thought about few things more in the past 20 years of my life
Sure, Mid90s was a little bit of a masturbatory attempt to recast his life as a good skater, rather than embrace true/interesting/relatable version, but he’s never come across as exploitative of skateboarding and if it got him a seat at the cool skaters table for a little, bless up my friend.

to me he just seems like that bitter little bitch that wants to be the first one to do things that people already did. it’s like he’s mad at spike/jonah for being successful in film and, especially jealous of them being more successful in skateboarding related videos/brands. even as terrible as mid 90’s was, somehow he made an even shittier movie and now wants to bite back at the hand that fed him through all of that and got his name out there. they literally made that movie, did interviews together that no one would have watched if jonah wasn’t in them, and then right after all that when he comes out with his own shitty movie he calls him out? seems like clout seeking to me and wanting to call out people more famous than you that helped you come up in order to get your name out there. ultimate cockroach type shit.

Nah man I think Jonah Hill is a culture vulture. Look at the way he gave up on skating and now acts like he’s mr surf, posting ig clips of himself flagrantly burning people at malibu. I know first point is a kook circus drop-in fest but if you live right down the road maybe you could manage to get a clip where you aren’t just ruining somebody else’s wave? Other people manage to do it somehow.

Jonah considered himself a skater for the mid 90 promo and stopped when the blu-ray came out

Mikey only wears clothes like that because he knows if he dressed like a skater it'd be stolen valor

I don't keep up with him on social media or anything, so that could be true. I just think at least Jonah's done legit stuff in his life. Mikey is just surrounded by yes people who inflate his ego. It's as if anything he touches he thinks is gold even when it's utter trash. The lack of humility will hopefully be his downfall. Maybe their next full length they'll include a free golf ball and sell it for $50 and Hollywood kids will eat it up and he's really a genius and I'm just bitter. Could be true as well.

Yeah I despised this dude's entire presence the first time I saw him (on Weekend Buzz), and he somehow doubles down on the kook factor everytime a camera is pointed at him.

Cast iron seasoning is serious business and everyone has their own approach to it, but its fairly universally accepted that a good, easy start is to just cook up a bunch of bacon in it. That's a great starting point.
Don't get too hung up on getting it perfect first time, 'cos you'll still have to do it every few months / years depending how much you use it. I personally like to keep mine really clean, so I'm seasoning it fairly regularly.
Cast iron cooking rules, just don't get confused by all the internet geekery around them.

Cast irons are chill, I have like 3. One thing that sucks tho is sometimes one of them really does get fucked up and I have to reseason it. Then I don’t use it for a while. But it’s cool that you can pretty much beat them to shit and always just scrub the fuck out of it, hell you could even take a sander to it if you want, and just season it again. They can be endlessly revived. Which is not so true with a lot of other materials.
I know a few people who use soap on em, and I kinda wanna try it.
I’m not super precious about seasoning. But sometimes it’ll like smell bad or have rust or right now I have carbon bits flaking off of one because I think I slow cooked something hella acidic in it (which is a bit of a cast iron kryptonite). So there are a few sticking points (no pun intended), but overall cast iron is the shit.
I also wanna try carbon steel which is like the same basic vibe but a bit lighter.

The Lodge site actually says to use Dawn dish soap to clean them. Just put a drop on the brush and clean it and then dry it really well and you're off and running. I cook with mine all the time and use soap to clean it and it is totally fine.
-
I always heard not to use soap to wash them, but recently saw a video mentioning that soaps a few decades ago were bad for it, but now the formulation is different so it’s not the case.
Sometimes I’ll use salt to remove residue because it’s acts as an abrasive. Mostly after I’ve cooked something with sauce.
As for seasoning, cooking bacon is always a good way to get things going.
-
It’s not the soap that kills them as much as not thoroughly drying them. I don’t soap mine much but I clean em under water with a brush then wipe em down, pop em on the hot plate for a minute to steam the rest off, give it a dry wipe down and put those cunts away
-
i ended up skating with this guy like 7 years ago cause my old roommates were friends with him at the time. for some reason i was trying to kick flip over some double set rail and he just started filming it (after i broke my ankle my kick flips are rocket as all hell) the whole time he was really tight, telling me i got it after every try. i ended up being over it but it was refreshing filming with a stranger in la that was supportive n shit. that was the first and last time i’ve ever met him but he was a really good dude. sounds like whatever fame that came about got to his head. everything i’ve seen or heard of him since then straight up seems like it’s a different person
-
I've got a cast iron skillet with the grooves, but it rarely gets used.
And I use soap now and again on our regular cast iron skillet. Sometimes though I clean it just by giving it a good wipe out with a dry piece of towel. Just don't go crazy cleaning them and you'll be fine.
-
pretty stoked to see all the cast iron heads pop up in this thread lol
From what I understand, some soap is ok. but dry and season it real quick (napkin wipe a dry skillet with some canola/avocado/vegetable oil and put it on heat til it smokes) I normally rinse with hot water once the pan has cooled from cooking. scrub with some steel wool then seasoning time.
to season a pan for the first time I put a lot of oil then bake it for some time. I stand behind the bacon move. recently been cooking bacon in my pans and it jolted the nonstick abilities into the pans. they were good already. i've been all cast iron lately.
garlic powder, cajun spice and some chili flakes sounds good. thanks for the suggestion. would go well with the creaminess of the mikey alfredo
I want the grill groove pan to make steaks, chicken breasts, burgers, grilled cheese, etc.
to clean my pans, well I tried this once and it worked well so far. I put my dirty pan into some coals after a bbq and let the coals burn the caked on grime off. seemed to work but I'm gonna do another round on this one pan I have.
-
Only rule to cast iron is to realize you really can't fuck it up. You can treat it nice but you really can't fuck it up.
Soap and sponge? Go for it just dry that bitch and put it back on the burner with a little oil after to ensure its truly dry and good to store.
Your seasoning ain't what you hoped for? Who gives a fuck do it again you can't hurt it.
Manage to truly fuck it up somehow? Just scrub the bitch down reseason and you're back ready.
Anyone telling you to avoid citrus can also fuck off. Toss this tomatoes in dude just treat it proper in response ya know.
I hope you all get after some proper sheperds pie real soon

I've been a basic bitch Teflon Don for a long time but have been reading about how fucking bad that shit is for you and am keen to get off it. Been a little nervous about pulling the trigger on that iron but this thread has been informative and reassuring, think I'm gonna do it.

Cast iron with the grooves is dumb as fuck, it gives you the lines you'd get on a grill with zero of the other benefits of cooking on a grill. If you're using cast iron, just use the regular pan, makes it easier to baste while you're cooking.
Boneless/skinless chicken breasts are the a pathetic white american culinary abomination. Is this weight watchers? If you're dead set on the breast at the very least leave the skin on, there is fat between the skin and the meat that renders when when you cook it so at least you get SOME flavor. Better yet, toss some thighs on, bone-in, skin on.

I've got one of the griddle made cast iron situations that's flat on one side and has the grill grates/grooves on the other side. Have really only ever used the non-flat side for like bulgogi or fajitas and even then it didn't add much.

i love cooking potatoes on my pan then when they're almost ready i add strips of bacon
once the bacon is done the potatoes are perfect and mikey alfred fucking sucks

I used to clean cast iron dutch ovens after we would bake a sheet of brownies or something like that which inevitably baked on some sticky goo. Our tried and true method was a clean rag and lots of salt. Using the salt as an abrasive worked really well to clean the cast iron and maintained the seasoning, though you will need a wide mouth trash can to take on the salted goo.
That Tyshawn got a check cut from that North Hollywood movie and then comes back around to roast Malfred is delightful. As the people with kids say, it sparks joy.

Edit: Had to Jump in. Mostly lodge but threw in the Dutch oven (enamel coated cast iron) and the carbon steel with cast iron handle. The Lodge grill press is the newest addition, perfect for sandos or smash burgers.
I also save all of my bacon grease in the fridge, I use it for cooking or seasoning my cast irons. Worth its weight in gold.

Yeah my only cast iron pan is a grooved one and I haven’t figured any use for it since I don’t cook meat. I once tried to do halloumi on it and it got pretty stuck. Couple of times I put it in my gas-powered pizza oven to cook salmon, but it didn’t work well because the handle made it impossible to turn half way through.
I probably need to get a proper one too since I’m tired of throwing out pans with the teflon flaking off.
-
Bacon generally starts on a cold pan and is prone to sticking, so you’re losing seasoning every time you have to scrape it out. Build it up first with vegetables, lots of oil, and make sure you preheat it. The high heat and oil are what polymerize to create the nonstick seasoning layer. Caramelized onions are a great starter.
-
Any new Lodge pans seem to take forever to get seasoned right but they're fucking great when you get 'em broken in.
Just skip the intermediate Lodge phase of cast iron ownership and get the Le Creuset Signature Skillet. The 10 1/4” is what I use to cook almost everything. There’s no pan I’ve ever owned that I love and use more. If I lost it today, I'd buy another one at retail tomorrow.

Another great cleaning technique when you've got a bunch of sticky shit after cooking is to just simplify boil water in it. Breaks down just about everything and then easily cleans up

The cognitive dissonance between "Cast iron is a miracle and will last hundreds of years" and "If you do ANYTHING wrong your cast iron is RUINED" has always been really funny to me. I'm not precious with mine at all because I know that it can always be fixed/saved/whatever. People make it way more complicated than it needs to be!
-
Ok the talk about soap in a cast iron has given me some guts, I’m gonna try it. The worst thing that could happen is I just decide to clean it and season it again, not the worst thing in the world. It’s just sometimes I’m lazy and I don’t wanna spend the time.
Funny to see some conflicting advice on bacon. I guess I can see where some of the sticking from bacon could lead to an uneven seasoning, but I definitely had fine luck just cooking some bacon, wiping the pan down, and heating it up for a quick-n-dirty seasoning refresher. It’s not as good as a really scientific seasoning sesh but it’s good enough for me and it’s a lot faster than heating an oven up to 500 or whatever.
BUT my mom is retired and she recently took the time to go mad scientist on her cast iron. She did like *several* rounds of flax seed oil and oven. Those things are like slicker than an ice skating rink now.
Yup cast iron rules, there are many ways to enjoy it. But for real I wanna hear some feedback on carbon steel! Anybody fuck with it?

I have owned a le cruset for 15 years, and use it daily. It is 100% worth the cost.

We just added a carbon steel to the arsenal, so far really liking it a lot. We use it most often almost like a wok because it's pretty deep and has steep sides. I do a lot of stir fry noodle dishes in it or fried rice type stuff.
I don't think most people know you shouldn't heat non-stick pans above medium-high otherwise that PFAS shit will start leeching into your food. Carbon Steel is 90% of the way to non-stick and way more versatile in my opinion.

Carbon steel sucks man, it will rust if you look at it sideways.

We just added a carbon steel to the arsenal, so far really liking it a lot. We use it most often almost like a wok because it's pretty deep and has steep sides. I do a lot of stir fry noodle dishes in it or fried rice type stuff.
I don't think most people know you shouldn't heat non-stick pans above medium-high otherwise that PFAS shit will start leeching into your food. Carbon Steel is 90% of the way to non-stick and way more versatile in my opinion.
You should want the non stick chemicals in your food. That way you don't get constipated duh.

Any new Lodge pans seem to take forever to get seasoned right but they're fucking great when you get 'em broken in.
Just skip the intermediate Lodge phase of cast iron ownership and get the Le Creuset Signature Skillet. The 10 1/4” is what I use to cook almost everything. There’s no pan I’ve ever owned that I love and use more. If I lost it today, I'd buy another one at retail tomorrow.
I ain’t got la creuset money but I’d love one. I agree with you on the bacon thing tho. I’ve found just greasing it heavily with lard and then baking it at 450 for 30 min when you first get a new one is actually pretty great. Carmelized onions is genius too. It’s hard to get away from lodge sometimes cause you can get them for so cheap at target.
The grill pan is great for stuff like chicken and skirt steaks where you want better char and live in apartment that doesn’t allow grills tho . Plus they the reversible ones so you can just pre heat it in the oven and have a great place to do smash burgers and pancakes!

I totally understand. I was fortunate to score mine at a thrift store, but I see even used ones sell for $100 or more now, where they used to be $40-60. If you can ever afford it, it’s absolutely money well spent and will last you a lifetime.

Ok the talk about soap in a cast iron has given me some guts, I’m gonna try it. The worst thing that could happen is I just decide to clean it and season it again, not the worst thing in the world. It’s just sometimes I’m lazy and I don’t wanna spend the time.
Funny to see some conflicting advice on bacon. I guess I can see where some of the sticking from bacon could lead to an uneven seasoning, but I definitely had fine luck just cooking some bacon, wiping the pan down, and heating it up for a quick-n-dirty seasoning refresher. It’s not as good as a really scientific seasoning sesh but it’s good enough for me and it’s a lot faster than heating an oven up to 500 or whatever.

If you really want to fuck with Carbon - check the de buyer carbon plus - buy at a french skate trip, treat her well, burn in proper and you will have a great roasting aroma.
Generaly my weapon of choice is my old cast iron pane
BUT Swiss company Spring have a 3 layer non-stick coating Frying pan called Vulcano intense pro.
Coating is PFOA free instead they use particles of genuine Swiss rock crystal straight from the alps,
its Swiss and its sound cheesy - but if you want a non coating pan, this one works really good.
And after 5 years they coat you your pan again.
perfekt for any egg dish - or frying vegetables with just a tiny drop of oil.

I've got one of the griddle made cast iron situations that's flat on one side and has the grill grates/grooves on the other side. Have really only ever used the non-flat side for like bulgogi or fajitas and even then it didn't add much.
now I really want some bimbap with Sigumchi Namul, kimchi, gochujang, and bulgogi.... and of course some raw egg.

ever since I can remember as a kid, we had a set of the light blue Le Creuset pots/pans that I believe my parents got for their wedding, years before I was even born. I was born in 1973. Here it is, 2022, and I STILL have the dutch oven and a a saucepan from that original set - they're over 50 years old and still are the best cookware I've ever had.
-
I found a le creuset small size Dutch oven at a thrift store for $6.00 and it’s in great shape, def top 5 thrift finds
Hella confused by the dude who said he doesn’t know what to cook on it because he doesn’t eat meat. I use my cast iron to make bomb vegetables! Start low with oil until they get softish and then crank high at the end when you drop some butter in and let ‘em get a little charred. Mikey Alfred and Illegal Civ are a company that pretended to have hype around them. Honest opinion. Nobody ever cared.
-
You don't need to eat meat to love cast iron. I've been vegetarian for ~25 years and I use my cast iron at least once a day to cook eggs. If I were scrambling tofu, I'd use the same pan in the same way. Anything you cook in a pan, you can cook with cast iron!
What are everyone's thoughts on "Ceramic" coated pans? It seems like ceramic in this case is a misnomer and there's still a polymer coating being applied to the pan, but it's incredibly hard to get a straight answer about what "ceramic" is supposed to mean here. They claim to be PFOA-free, but we all know that we're ~10-15 years away from finding that whichever polymer we are told was safe to be lowering our sperm counts to 0. In my case, we bought some Costco Ceramic pans. They work well enough, but definitely leave me wondering.

I have a standard cast iron pan and my housemate has the slightly bigger version. I'm not a meat eater but I still cook damn near everything in them. Stir fries, eggs, curry, whatever you name it. I've never hit mine with soap and I rarely even use water on them. If what I cooked isn't super caked on or sticky, I'll pour some sea salt on it and rub it down with a paper towel. Then dump all the dirty salt in the trash. It'll scrape off whatever's on it and leave the seasoning looking good.
My other housemate isn't a great cook and more importantly isn't confident in their cooking. They make it a point to never touch our cast iron pans which is kinda funny but something I've always appreciated.

I’m actually a big fan of Jonah Hill’s movies but that whole exchange around the time of Mid 90’s was super awkward. I think everyone was genuinely excited when he kept talking about how much skating meant to him growing up and how much he loved skating then trying to find any evidence of him actually skating or having any skating ability seemed to require an FBI investigation to produce. How easy would it have been to hop on a board and do a pop shuvit or something to prove your authenticity and get everyone excited if skating was really that big of a part of your life…

Yeah I get that a regular cast iron pan can be versatile, and I’m especially interested in one now for omelettes because apparently that is the secret, but I was specifically talking about the grooved grill one I have, which I can’t see any other use for except searing nice stripes into something. Maybe I could sear some eggplant or zuccini on it, idk

Those grooves are great when trying to get char on items with a high-moisture content. All the juice drips away from the contact points.
Red bell peppers is a great case, as is your eggyplant or zuc's.
One of my favorite uses is to make charred green onion puree. Char the green onions and blend them up with salt and olive oil. It's great with raw/cooked beef, on sandwiche, w/e.

Second that. I got the Lodge started kit a little while back that has a 12", a grill pan, and a smaller 8". also came with scrapers. have been good to me after numerous failed attempts at buying some in years past.

I’ll also say that thrift stores where I live are always full up on cast iron. You’ll probably want to season it, which I understand isn’t everyone bag, but if you want to get started for like $10 that’s a good way in.
-
I bought the Lodge cast iron from Target also when I first started living on my own lol.
The first thing I learned to cook on it was chicken and rice.
-sear chicken thigh w/skin until the skin is crispy and remove it from the pan
-cook your veggies (sweet yellow onions with whatever, I prefer sweet potatoes) and have it absorb everything the chicken left behind. If you want to make it "cajun" use holy trinity mix and seasoning.
-Add 1.5 cups of rice, 3 cups of water or chicken broth or beer, your choice. Dash of soy sauce/seasoning of choice.
-toss the chicken on top and let it braise until rice is cooked.

I had two Griswold prewar cast iron skillets (kinda the creme de la creme of cast iron). They were my go-to's but since acquiring a 1/4" baking steel and a de Buyer carbon steel pan, the cast iron has been rendered obsolete. Never thought they'd relinquish the top spot on the pan shelf, but there they sat in the back hardly ever get used, so I gave them to my mom. Carbon steel is much easier to clean and rarely stick. It can be hand washed with dish soap and no scent is retained as it's not porous like cast iron. The baking steel has upped my pizza game considerably, but cast iron still reigns king of pan-style pizza, kinda miss them in that regard.
Also recently bought a T-fal ceramic pan and was pleasantly surprised by how stickproof it is.

Yeah, I wish I could remember what his issue was, but as I recall he seemed to conclude that it was just needlessly fancy and expensive, and didn’t offer any benefit over another pan. I want to say that something about the shape bothered him.

My experience is only with MISEN and carbon steel and like I said they rusted in no time and that is after I spent hours 'seasoning' them. Maybe other brands are better but my only introduction to carbon steel pans sucked big time. Sucked so much that MISEN sent me a set of non-stick pans at no cost.

if its not seasoned properly, the moisture from the fish/meat tends to evaporate or stick to the pan
2 tbsp olive oil rubbed into the pan, upside down in the oven on 350 for 20 min
let cool and good to go
Thanks

i cook the fish on both sides, is there a certain way you are supposed to do it? I alaways see some meme about Neen cooking fish skin side up or some shit and my fish tastes pretty good. i am worried it wouldnt cook through if you only cooked it on one side?

Huh, I’m intrigued by the carbon steel, especially because they’re more affordable than I thought. I have a vintage Wagner and a griswold. In my opinion, they’re miles better than a lodge and widely available at thrift and antique stores. Though, I admit I haven’t used Lodges very much. I don’t like the porous texture of them.
Regarding pizza stone vs cast iron pizza: I do both but I think I’m starting to like cast iron better. My sense is that it preheats faster, so you get a crispier crust without having to preheat a stone for forever.

It's been my experience that modern Lodge finish sticks way more than smooth vintage cast iron. I'm considering buying a Lodge and resurfacing it with a disk and angle grinder. From reading around a bit it seems like a practical solution considering good cast iron is so expensive these days.

I’m surprised to hear that there’s a lot of resale value in rusty Lodge pans. I guess maybe people who operate booths in antique malls or at flea markets grab them, because selling them on eBay is usually cost-prohibitive unless you’re talking Le Creuset money.

I’ve heard of people doing this but it seems easier to track down a vintage Lodge (or other make) pan on eBay or elsewhere, one which is already smooth. Agreed completely about the contemporary Lodge finish - it does get better with use but nothing compares to something slick and smooth straight out of the box.

Theres a guy who only sells refurbished 50+ year old cast irons at my local flea and its the busiest booth there. I remember him talking to me how vintage cast irons are better quality than new ones?

You don't need to eat meat to love cast iron. I've been vegetarian for ~25 years and I use my cast iron at least once a day to cook eggs. If I were scrambling tofu, I'd use the same pan in the same way. Anything you cook in a pan, you can cook with cast iron!
What are everyone's thoughts on "Ceramic" coated pans? It seems like ceramic in this case is a misnomer and there's still a polymer coating being applied to the pan, but it's incredibly hard to get a straight answer about what "ceramic" is supposed to mean here. They claim to be PFOA-free, but we all know that we're ~10-15 years away from finding that whichever polymer we are told was safe to be lowering our sperm counts to 0. In my case, we bought some Costco Ceramic pans. They work well enough, but definitely leave me wondering.
What's your tofu scramble recipe? I use nutritional yeast, paprika and tumeric + some veggies but wanna hear some other recipes.
You didn't ask me, but I'll butt in anyways cause I love a good tofu scramble lol. I usually do onion, garlic, ginger, and whatever veggies I have around. I'll season it with some turmeric, curry powder, paprika, and maybe some spike or just salt and pepper. Once everything is almost cooked, I'll pour in some bragg sauce and let it cook down. Soy sauce also works but something about the bragg sauce tastes better with the seasonings and feels like it's better for me. I'll usually garnish it with nutritional yeast and cilantro if I have it.
It's one of my go to breakfast or lunches to make. It's pretty quick and simple and it feels healthier than a lot of the other things I would make. Would definitely recommend to anyone who hasn't tried it before!

Let me ask you something: when jgonzalez has introduced me to cast iron posting, what is SLAP going to say? SLAP is not going to say, "jgonzalez made a mistake," because jgonzalez never makes a mistake, so therefore it is okay.
I can cast iron post around SLAP, I can cast iron post in my house ...

Agreed, it would be easier to just buy a vintage one. I love a project and tinkering with stuff though. Plus I gotta keep myself busy and stimulated, or else boredom and then self-loathing takes hold.

LOL. What's happening here. No clue, but thanks? not sure haha.
I went to Marshalls and they sell lodge cookware with superficial manufacturing defects for cheaper. I picked up that double burner griddle the other day and I'm pretty stoked. I've only heated up some tortillas on it so far, but I'm fantasizing about cooking burgers on one end and frying onions on the other. Even bringing it camping to throw atop the grill grate over the campfire. I'm gonna make some pizza on it this coming week. The pan in the pic i just cleaned all the crust off of it. I did some charcoal barbecueing yesterday so after I was done cooking (some marinated chicken and a big ass steak) I put some coals inside of the pan and submerged it in the coals overnight to burn off the crust. Brushed off the crust with steel wool today and Started seasoning it. It's an old one from like the 20s or 30s with the smooth surface you all were talking about. an old roommate left it behind. Stoked to see how it cooks compared to the pieces I have from lodge.

Thanks @PuffinMuffin for the carbon steel tips, I’m gonna cop one of those asap.
On the topic of pizza, I find that pizzas in my cast irons come out tasting amazing but they sometimes stick and fuck up the seasoning on my pans. Maybe this means my seasoning job wasn’t good enough
And regarding vintage vs new Lodge jawns, funny enough I bought a new Lodge when I moved last year because my old pans were all in transit. It seemed like it was gonna be porous and shitty but after one round of seasoning it’s actually holding up even better than the vintage one I got from my parents. Hard to say if this is because of the pan itself or my seasoning practices or what. I’ll be honest I’m pretty lazy with seasoning so who knows.

When I do pizza in the cast iron, I always do a little olive oil around the outside edge to get under the dough, I think it helps when it’s ready to pull out, plus a little cornmeal on the bottom of the pan. I get a little bit of dough sticking sometimes but those two things seem to help.

Bumping this thread with more cast iron-related chatter.
My gf got me a new Lodge carbon steel for my birthday. I probably wouldn’t have went with lodge if I bought it myself, but it was a pretty thoughtful gift. Why would a normal sane person know about contemporary Lodge products’ crappy factoring seasoning and porous surface?
So I tried it out today and it’s pretty cool but I think it’s gonna need some help to really kick ass. I read in some Amazon reviews about people sanding down the surface with 200 grit sandpaper to smooth it out a bit. That seems like it would be fine, right? Should I worry about unleashing some sort of fucked up petrochemicals by disrupting the factory-made “seasoning” coating that it comes with?
Also in an attempt to get it improving quickly just to try it out this morning, I rubbed a little oil in and heated it on the stove till it smoked. Now I have some uneven seasoning in the pattern of a stove burner. It makes me realize most of my cast irons have this as well, because I’m not that diligent about taking care of em I guess. But I guess I’m gonna strip it all off and try to get a really proper seasoning job done in the oven sometime soon.
Anyone have thoughts or experience that would be relevant here?

Yea, always preheat and season in the oven, if you do it over a stovetop it's going to heat unevenly where the flame is. I don't know exactly what Lodge seasons with but I have to imagine it's fairly organic so you should be safe to sandpaper it o...

I haven't used a Lodge before, so I'm not sure what the pan's looking like but:
In my experience, most people don't wait long enough when cooking delicate, sticky foods. Chicken/fish skin will naturally start releasing from the pan when they've reached that crispy point. A lot of cooks want to check progress 5ish minutes in, before the skin has done much. I started just teasing my food with tongs to check if it's ready to release.
I start my chicken breasts in a cold, regular-ass pan (with oil in it of course). They never stick because I've learned to 'listen to the skin'.
A good trick if things are sticking is to add a pat of butter - the moisture in it will help deglaze the pan, and pop whatever is stuck, off.
Eggs are where this technique breaks down (all that flipping). If you're trying to cook pancakes/eggs, then my only advice is to season your pan like 5 times and then never, ever, no matter what, no matter what anyone says, or anyone has done, no matter whatever - don't cook anything else in that pan. No meat, no vegetables, no phad pok, just eggys.
credentials: spent 10 years as a professional cooking bitch, several years exclusively using carbon steel.

Sweeeet I needed a cast iron thread

I fucked up and grabbed my carbon steel for a stupid ass bertolli bag meal with tomato sauce and a bunch of cheese, and absolutely obliterated the bottom, had to do a salt scrub to really clean all the stuck cheese and shit. Just did absolutely everything wrong possible from grabbing the pan to what I cooked in it to cleaning.
all that being said, after I cleaned it really well, went ahead and re-seasoned with oil and it's good as new.
That's the main thing I try to tell people, even if you totally fuck up somehow, cast iron and carbon steel can always be re-seasoned and saved. All these people that act like you can "ruin" your pans just don't know what they're doing.
-
Carbon steel and cast iron can be ruined in one very specific way. You must *always* let them cool before washing. It's quiet easy to warp either of these materials by pouring room temperature water all over them when they are still sitting at 350°.
As for sanding or grinding, Lodge claims to use only organic oils to season. From a PDF on their website:
What oil does Lodge use to season its cookware?
Lodge uses soy-based vegetable oil to season our traditional cast iron and carbon steel cookware in our foundries. There are no synthetic chemicals added at all. The oil is highly refined, and all proteins that cause soy-related allergies are eliminated. The oil is kosher and contains no animal fat, peanut oil, or paints.

I’m definitely gonna sand my carbon steel down to get it smoother, and then re-season it.

The seasoning on your cast iron has to be on point to handle eggs. Or you need a good amount of lard or butter to help

Eggs aren’t even that bad if you use enough oil/butter/whatever, but it can be a little excessive if all you wanna do is fry a couple over east or something
But cast iron is dope for an omelette, and that’s a case where using a ton of butter is totally fine
Another tip that my gf’s mom taught me— use half butter and half oil so you get butter flavor plus the better lubrication of a more oily oil.

Butter for flavour, oil for crispy, baby!

Weird people are putting Jonah Hill and Mikey in the same camp. Jonah Hill is way cooler than Mikey Alfred. I've always thought Mikey was the worst, but when that interview came out talking shit on Spike Jones, that was the final straw. Hopefully he gets blacklisted from Hollywood.
Hollywood has to know who Mikey is to blacklist him
Re: Jonah. People give him shit about his lack of talent, but that’s totally relatable. Not everyone who loves skateboarding is required to have talent at it and he clearly has always had an affection for it. I suck, but I’ve thought about few things more in the past 20 years of my life
Sure, Mid90s was a little bit of a masturbatory attempt to recast his life as a good skater, rather than embrace true/interesting/relatable version, but he’s never come across as exploitative of skateboarding and if it got him a seat at the cool skaters table for a little, bless up my friend.
He’s so bad at surfing too, which makes it even funnier. He caters his image to people who don’t actually surf/skate because they don’t know better and will think it’s “cool”. The guy just burns people then squat stances down the line
I like Jonah and he’s been in some of the best comedies, but his newfound surfer image is gold. Guy’s a textbook kook

If there's some seasoning on the pan cook something real fatty to keep the seasoning going. Bacon is pretty good. Been cooking bacon more frequently and noticing the non stick qualities of my pans going up.

Salt scrub definitely works. I’ll only do that if I cooked something that put some fond on the on or something, but otherwise I just wipe down. Bacon you definitely just pour out the grease and give a wipe with a paper towel

so my new carbon steel is pretty chill but it still has that shitty lodge brand porous surface. it pisses me off. if i wipe it down with a paper towel it will chew up little shreds of paper and leave them all over the pan. i dont know why lodge makes shit like this. i think i might really need to hit it with some sandpaper, but that seems like kind of a pain, so if anyone knows a way to fix it faster, lmk. i mean, i guess i could just use a rag instead but then i have a greasy ass rag to wash and i dont have my own laundry machine in this apartment, so that's a pain as well. fuck lodge, all my homies hate lodge.

I end up just pairing it with those Idaho mashed potatoes you just add water too cause they're bomb but if you wanna go all in make some from scratch. Also recommend having some proper Sourdough with it

My old mans got an old cast iron camp/dutch oven he cooks in, it looks gross, but all the lard produces mad flavour, and top results, no good for cholesterol I guess...

girlfriends grandparents gave us a cast iron skillet today. any tips for first time users
If there's some seasoning on the pan cook something real fatty to keep the seasoning going. Bacon is pretty good. Been cooking bacon more frequently and noticing the non stick qualities of my pans going up.
just got a le creuset 5.5 classic. Scored one off of next door at a good price. got a tip to look at next door from talking about cooking with a stranger. gotta upgrade the lid knob to do some oven roasts tho. anyone got any simple roast recipes.

I really didn’t do my cast iron justice the first couple years I had it. Didn’t season or clean it properly all. A while back tho I watched this video and it had everything you really need to know about cleaning/maintaining a cast iron. Pretty funny too

So we cut the camp trip short by a day. Biting flies put us over the edge and it just wasn’t worth it. The kids got the full multi-day off the grid camping experience, though, so it was a huge success.
Our cast iron griddle caught on fire. Lodge, about a half inch thick. It’s probably 9x20, short wheelbase but fun for pancakes and roasting stuff. Lives on the center rack of the oven at home.
We went for campfire cookies and boom the thing was ablaze! Coating flaky, partner said it’s fucked forget it. But I remembered these skateboardmessageboarders who knew about everything, from history to fashion to holy shit: cast iron cooking! so here I am.
Can it be saved, it’s just a hunk of metal, that “coating” was just some cancer-inducing buildup of corboxylized oils and corbonium-rich crust, right?
I can scrub it with a wire brush and start over? Break it down to build it up like the army?
Thanks in advance for any tips you can give on this. And my pants and music and politics and graffiti and trans rights too!

Sometimes when I bbq or do a pit fire I take the hot coals and bury my cast iron to burn everything off. Whatever is stuck will flake off if it has long and even contact with the coals. It’s an opportunity to start over in a way.
Yep. Scrub it well and apply a layer of oil and just start seasoning it. Give it a couple of coats or, like I’ve said, cook some bacon after seasoning it a couple of times. All the bacon fat will help re season and gives a good coat. I also save the fat in a can in the fridge for frying eggs chicken vegetables you name it. Hashbrows in bacon fat are good.
Remember. Hot pan, hot water lol. Been using that advice since I would usually just let my pans cool before cleaning them
-
Nice, thanks!
Doing a heavy scrub clean up today, one pass with a grille brush already looking better.
Also poking around the cast iron subreddit for an overview, thanks. My Own Research confirms the indestructible hypothesis, will go forward with that until proven otherwise.
Also bopping around https://www.castironcollector.com/ , looking for the ID on the Wagner Drip Drop Roaster No.8 my mom gave us. It’s pretty sick: my partner preps lasagna and enchiladas pre-camping, using this Dutch oven as the mold. She freezes them in the pot, lined in aluminum foil. These frozen food frisbees are used as ice for the cooler, then boom she cooks them off and melts cheese over the campfire, v rustic and fun. Into it.

I'm sure it'll come up ok. Watch the cowboy clip above for some cleaning tips.
One time my camp oven had some surface rust on it so I used a wire brush tip in a drill. That worked well. Once re-sealed it was as good as new

Used to work in a few kitchens. The standard protocol is to first ice the flat top grill to cool and harden the grease, then put a bunch of kosher/rock salt on as an abrasive, and squirt some lemon juice on there as a degreaser. Scrub that mix around with whatever, rinse it or wipe it down with a wet rag, then put some type of oil on there to protect it. Same goes for cast iron if you want to be a G about it.

I think if you’re backpacking and traveling light, yeah it’s not super reasonable. But cast iron is perfect for camping. You can just pull some coals out of the fire to cook on or just bring any grate for over the fire and cook anything in it.

It’s the wrong time of year to do this, but come winter you can run it through the oven on “self-cleaning” mode and it’ll burn off all of the excess material leaving you with a fresh pan, ready to be seasoned.

I guess you can go camping without hiking too. It’s just a foreign concept to me. Do you just go somewhere by car and set up camp right next to where you park?

Yeah. Car camping. Pull off on an old dirt road next to a river. Had about 200 foot trail to this:

There are a lot of great roadside camp sites where you can pitch a tent or sleep safely in your vehicle for like $12. Much cheaper than paying for a hotel or motel when you’re traveling. I have a van so I’m no stranger to hauling cast iron around to campsites, but yeah I wouldn’t dream to haul that shit on my back.

Wife and I are headed out to do some truck camping today with the dogs actually. Pack the 4runner up, take a two track deep into state land, pitch a tent by the river. Simple and easy. Got my coleman stove and a cast iron ready to rock. Cooler full of bevvies and food. Blue tooth speaker, books, fly fishing gear, macro lens for plant photos. Truck camping is the shit

Yeah, I don’t know if this is maybe a coastal thing, where it might seem stranger to someone on the east coast, which is so much more densely populated. Because here in the western part of the US, you can camp for free or cheap in much of the millions of acres of national forest and other government land. It’s a super easy thing to do, and access is pretty much limited to people with motor vehicles or, if you’re an idiot like me, you can ride your bike out there.
This is a stock image, but I camped out here and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without a vehicle of some kind. (https://i.ibb.co/9ttbNxr/E86-DEA5-A-1-B72-42-FF-AB68-892-E5-E812-A66.jpg) (https://ibb.co/9ttbNxr)

I think it's more about land access policy and population yeah. We're in northern MI. We just went for a day and drove about 1.5 hrs into a state forest. Took a few two-track roads and set up shop next to a lovely little river in the woods. We're pretty lucky
-
We’ve got “Everyman’s rights” in Finland which means you can go camp, pick berries and mushrooms and hunt on anyone’s land. Not sure about parking though. And of course you can’t go destroying crops, leaving trash or camp in someone’s backyard. So all in all I think we might have a pretty good country for car camping but for some reason it’s not really a thing here. At least I don’t know anyone doing such. People (including me) do like to go hiking though.
Anyway, what you guys have posted about car camping seems really cool. I’ll need to rethink my next summer vacation. Could possibly camp a whole bunch more, not just when out hiking.

hey.
the griddle was saved. I soaked it in vinegar overnight and scrubbed it down with a wire brush. Didn't even get to steel wool levels. Re-seasoned with olive erl in the oven, a couple few sessions and it's back 2 life. Cleaned bare to legal C.I., V-ictory thank you slappos
Camping-wise, back to that general area and a couple of small forest fires last weekend. Orange sunset on night one, woke up to winds of change and the smoke was gone. Realized that we didn't have too much fire trouble this summer, thank you Joe Biden!

Found a 10" Lodge Signature pan at a thrift store a while back. Couldn't pass it up even though I have a 1940s 10" Lodge, a 10" Le Creuset (both purchased from this same store), and a 12" modern Lodge. If I decide not to keep it, maybe I'll pass it along to a Slap homie. It needs seasoning but then it'll good to go for a hundred years of daily use.

This statement shows the fragility of his ego and what he holds to be important when it comes to running a business. Sales could be absolutely tanked and his whole team can quit but as long as kids in YouTube comments leave him fire emojis he's leading the industry.

Mikey's mom was the personal assistant to Robert Evans who was kinda the last Hollywood studio mogul before the corporations started buying up all the studios. Broad stokes; the deal with him was that the studio system basically collapsed in the wake of the cultural change of the 60s. Evans was the guy who knew how to look at potential movies and see if they would hit with a big audience, even if on paper they seemed like a wild pitch. Packages like Roman Polanski directing Rosemary's Baby (a huge hit) woulda never happened without Evan's involvement. It would have almost certainly gone to some aging but reliable director with the movie most likely forgotten today. And then there's The Godfather. It was a trashy checkout line bestseller and somehow Coppola made what he made and a lot of that was Evan's guidance as well. He could make hits when the other studios had mostly collapsed trying to.
Part of me thinks Mikey is aware of Robert Evan's ability to parse cultural change and turn it into revenue and that he aspires to do the same. Pretty crummy track record so far though.

hey thanks for the response. this makes total sense now that you've made the connection. so he's a Hollywood wanna be who settled in the skate industry pretty much... I never realized he can't actually skate, but then again I didn't know much about him at all. I always thought he was the filmer who realized he wasn't gonna be pro but could still rip on some level.
I also get what you're saying about the shit storm racking him mentally. I don't wish poor mental health or an episode on the guy, but if you can't handle criticism (but openly welcome public praise) you shouldn't be a public figure or run a business that plays so heavily into public feedback. Most people aren't really cut out for that shit.
Edit:
At around 2 mins he outs himself as another typical Hollywood entertainment kook that only associates himself with people that he can get something out of. The funny thing is he thinks he's saying something profound when really he sounds scummy and opportunistic. People like this give off the most disingenuous and needy vibes. Yeah, needy is exactly the word I'd use to describe him after watching this. What a strange guy.

If Mikey’s delusions of grandeur weren’t so extreme you’d almost feel bad for the guy
As annoying as he often is, Midler deserves to pop up on the roster of a real board sponsor
-
so he’s sanding off hundreds of ex-rider’s graphics in order to resell them as new? whole team leaves, he says he kicked them off because they weren’t promoting his shitty graphics/brand enough. assorts a new squad of children as the team because they’re of the same mindset & are too young to see the graphics as a child’s garbage art. even before all of that, he publicly trash talks spike jonze in an interview to seem edgy and gain more attention. i hope he’s teaching business/art classes soon, he’s obviously very well versed.
-
Ok so you reckon Robert Evans got funding for him for his movies? His dad was in jail, anyone know what for? I need more info on his background and his finance situation that floats his bullshit as he’s super comfortable with it but stinks of new money. It’s fascinating.
-
i thought he was able to fund his stuff because he linked up with Tyler the Creator, Golf Wang group where he made a album documentary for tyler, which then got him to Jonah Hill and all that mid90s stuff and that snowballed him to “pls give me money for my shitty skateboard movie”

He definitely has rich parent vibes, he’s a fully formed douchebag but too amped about it. Like his dad struck oil or some shit.

Seems like your standard so cal grifter. These guys are everywhere now a days. It’s a subtle art, where the idea of genuine substance and hard work no longer exist
Yeah this is a type of guy as old as America, we just haven't had a lot of them in prominent roles within skateboarding before.

It’s always the business men who discount the team as being the main source of interest from the consumer.
“My art and vision are what the kids really want. I can get any young kid to huck themselves down some sets and let the cash roll in.”
While it plays an integral part in the brand you can have bad graphics and still kill it if you have the other pieces in place.
I hope Baker boys ran from this flaming turd a while back. Andrew is always willing to give brands a chance. Seems like it rarely pans out though.

smoking weed with kids is so fucking weird and not ok

so he’s sanding off hundreds of ex-rider’s graphics in order to resell them as new? whole team leaves, he says he kicked them off because they weren’t promoting his shitty graphics/brand enough. assorts a new squad of children as the team because they’re of the same mindset & are too young to see the graphics as a child’s garbage art. even before all of that, he publicly trash talks spike jonze in an interview to seem edgy and gain more attention. i hope he’s teaching business/art classes soon, he’s obviously very well versed.
won't sanding graphics off diminish the quality of the wood on some level? IC is the only company where the value of a board goes up with a sanded off graphic.

he clearly doesnt know you can just heat transfer over a graphic with another. waste of time and money.

Carbon steel pans are very similar and a nice lighter alternative to cast iron, probably good for camping trips etc.
That's my contribution to the cast iron pan thread.

what is Mikey's background and how did he end up connected in the industry? Where did he come from? I feel like he just kind of appeared a few years ago. He can barely skate and has no legitimate talent. Did he have some sort of financial backing to buy into the industry? Is he a Hollywood plant?
Part of me thinks Mikey is aware of Robert Evan's ability to parse cultural change and turn it into revenue and that he aspires to do the same. Pretty crummy track record so far though.

hey thanks for the response. this makes total sense now that you've made the connection. so he's a Hollywood wanna be who settled in the skate industry pretty much... I never realized he can't actually skate, but then again I didn't know much about him at all. I always thought he was the filmer who realized he wasn't gonna be pro but could still rip on some level.
I also get what you're saying about the shit storm racking him mentally. I don't wish poor mental health or an episode on the guy, but if you can't handle criticism (but openly welcome public praise) you shouldn't be a public figure or run a business that plays so heavily into public feedback. Most people aren't really cut out for that shit.
Edit:
At around 2 mins he outs himself as another typical Hollywood entertainment kook that only associates himself with people that he can get something out of. The funny thing is he thinks he's saying something profound when really he sounds scummy and opportunistic. People like this give off the most disingenuous and needy vibes. Yeah, needy is exactly the word I'd use to describe him after watching this. What a strange guy.

Baker quietly stopped distributing them a bit ago
everything they’ve taken a chance on ended up a bust:
-917 (fell apart right as they took it on)
-Birdhouse (lost Saturdays steam as they took it on)
-IC
-Heroin (who the fuck buys it?!?)

Not to blow your theory out but Heroin is a success story and huge with the 30 and up crowd. Their drops sell through pretty consistently.
It seems like Bakerboys is down to do a distro deal for a drop or two and see how it goes. Honestly it's a legit way to do it. MaxAllure was also distroed through them for a time but has something else set up now. They haven't imploded and are still building the brand. You've got a point about 917, IC and Birdhouse but I think those fell apart more due to the brand manager (in this case Mikey) not putting in the work to sell a full drop through.
Mikey has been living rent free in my head for the past 24 hours or so. Does Illegal Civ I exist? I tried to find it and didn't see anything. It also doesn't have an entry on Skatevideosite whereas 2 and 3 do.
My pet theory now is that, through the Nak connection, Mikey was able to deliver the follow up to Cherry right after Cherry came out when hype was at a maximum. Cherry and Illegal Civilization 2 both come out in 2014 but Nak is in IC videos dating back to at least 2012. Apparently the Supreme kids weren't affiliated with IC but you wouldn't know it from watching IC2. They're all over it - the intro, full parts, end credits. Basically, IC as a brand was in the right place, right time but, full credit where it's due, Mikey shot a lot of that video and edited all of it and also has a pretty mid line at the very end. He was at one point a skate filmer.

917 was a niche project by Alex Olson and never appeared to be something that would garner large scale attention the big brands.
Birdhouse is in a constant state of limbo of medial success because of Tony. Has little to do with Bakerboys other than just being a different woodshop/parent distribution thing. It's not a bust, though.
IC was dogshit regardless of Bakerboys taking them on.
Heroin has been hugely successful for a small brand with the 30+ crowd but also many people in their 20s, top.
What a weird take

Imagine having to explain to your grandma you bought a heroin skateboard, plus not to get too bleeding heart about things but why would any adult be that cavalier about stuff like that, it’s like starting cancer skateboards
I feel the same way about Fucking Awesome in a way, name is too cringe to explain to somebody who doesn’t skate
I understand you can’t let everyone’s opinion dictate every aspect of your life but certain stuff I’m like cmon grow up man, like people wearing clothes with weed shit and swear words all over them, like cmon man. Hate to sound like an old guy but people like that need to grow the fuck up sometimes. Just be respectful of people’s mental space. What if some guy had a relative with a bad heroin addiction and he’s already stressed about it then he opens some skateboard media and sees a heroin ad. That seems like a bummer. I said cancer but what about Miscarriage Skateboards? Like why would you even do that. Just fucking weird, like you couldn’t come up with a single better idea for a brand than just evil shit? You thirteen years old bro? Just annoyed and on a rant. Whoever started this shit is lame. Shapes look cool though

I get what you're saying but that is 100% that person's responsibility to handle those potential emotions/ thoughts that may arise. This is the same as people getting mad at jokes in a comedy club because they're "going through something." It's a slippery slope that ultimately leads to censorship.

One of the top thrift store disappointments is seeing some amazing enamel cast iron, grabbing it and realizing that someone donated it after they left it on the stovetop too long and now the enamel is destroyed. I’ve thought about trying to remove all the enamel but frankly I would have no idea where to even start and I hardly need another project.

I saw something from another user on a metal shop forum who had a similar issue, his solution was to wire brush the enamel and finish it off with a grinder before seasoning. Could be worth a shot if you find one that really catches your eye.

Heroin-schmeroin… is it really so hard to grock what Fos has alluded to with his company’s branding?
This shit is wicked addicting.
Mind blowing, I know.
But of course, we are obliged to uphold skateboarding’s pristine legacy of good taste, so into the dustbin with Heroin, it is.
But before we chuck this company, i should point out that I didn’t see anybody wringing their hands in anxiety when Illegal Civilization made the skate world an uncomfortable place to negotiate for ex-felons/reformed convicts trying to straighten their post-lock-up lives out.
Probably pretty difficult to navigate society when a skate graphic can trigger you & send you spiraling right back to the nefarious life you left behind in the slammer.

We've got a couple of enamel coated caste iron pots and they're great.
I've also got a couple of traditional style caste iron pots and a pan and they are also great but I mainly use them for camping when I'm cooking on or in a campfire.
I'm not exactly sure what the exact benefit of the enamel coated stuff might be over a regular caste iron pot. I guess you don't have to season them or worry about them rusting and you can clean them with soap whilst still getting the evenly distributed heat of a caste iron pan.
I wouldn't so I'm a massive advocate of enamel coated pots and wouldn't have access to them if my partner hadn't of bought them but they are definitely nice to cook with.

i've had enamel coated pans before, i dont really like them. sure, theyre more nonstick than a shitty cast iron, but not really any better than a well-seasoned cast iron. and unlike regular cast iron they don't really go well with anything abrasive, so when they inevitably get gunked up they take forever to gently clean.
there are some exceptions tho. like for stews they're great because anything that gets stuck when sauteeing will get loosened up while simmering for the next few hours. they're good for baking bread too. but idk, maybe i just don't get it. i'm not a great cook tbh

there are some exceptions tho. like for stews they're great because anything that gets stuck when sauteeing will get loosened up while simmering for the next few hours. they're good for baking bread too. but idk, maybe i just don't get it. i'm not a great cook tbh
Yeah this is exactly right. The only enameled cast iron I have is my dutch oven. it's the best for curry or stews or red beans and rice, anything you want to simmer for a while. I have also heard you can bake in them but I haven't tried that.

This story is based where the skateboard culture is the most foreign, the Midwest. Derrick Cabrera, like all skaters, has a dream of being sponsored and one day going pro. He is an up and coming skater with all the talent but has the world against him. Parents, friends and schoolmates can't understand how Derrick has so much passion for something that has no future in their eyes. His crew of friends that are skaters is the only place he is truly accepted. But, as he gets better and better, the skater he looked up to the most becomes his worst enemy. In the sport of skateboarding a single trick that has never been done or conceived can bring you stardom in an instant. Derrick has that trick, if only he can make it. As he attempts to make this trick he is faced with skateproofing, a jealous friend and cops who have it in for him. Derrick finally gets arrested for skating on private property. After that his parents lay down the law and try to force him to quit skateboarding. Adding insult to injury, his girlfriend forces an ultimatum on him as well: "The skateboard or life with her." At that point, Derrick gives up everything and runs away with his friends to the Tampa Am contest in Florida. This is a weekend that can turn an unknown skateboarder into a future star. He sees it as his only shot to make it in skateboarding. Derrick's rivalry comes to a head in Florida when his crew of friends abandons him because of his jealous mentor. A top amateur's sister rescues Derrick by giving him a place to stay and convincing him to believe in himself. With all the world of skateboarding watching, Derrick finally makes the trick that shocks the entire skate world and instantly thrusts him into the spotlight. His dream of being sponsored has come true.

North Shore is a rad movie. I know it’s about surfing and becoming a pro-surfer but I could see someone, somewhere making a good movie about becoming a pro skater.
Like here’s a plot- some dweeb from Iowa who wins his local contest so he movies to SF. Then he gets bullied by like, some GX pros but Frank Gerwer takes him under his wings and dweeb has to learn to hill bomb on a variety of weird 80s and shaped decks. Finally Frank hooks him up with a Krooked board that he shaped himself and now the kid shreds and earns the respect of the SF crowd. But in the end he decides to move to NYC to become an artist.

Counterpoint - skate movies don’t have to be about turning pro, or dramatic coming of age tales, or “we’re poor and the only escape we have is when we’re skating”. Skating is supposed to fun and with our buddies, easy to spin comedy off that

Mikey has been living rent free in my head for the past 24 hours or so. Does Illegal Civ I exist? I tried to find it and didn't see anything. It also doesn't have an entry on Skatevideosite whereas 2 and 3 do.
I'm not sure why I did but I remember having illegal civ 1 downloaded to my pc I'm pretty sure it used to be easily found on Vimeo but I deleted that file a while ago so I can't reupload it anywhere
Thanks for confirming it existed. I had only seen 2 and wasn't sure if maybe 1 was more of a homie vid that didn't circulate as much.

I have a good skate homie who used to be a street-level heroin user and he skated heroin skateboards. I’ve never brought it up to him but I do often find it to be a bit strange.
Why aren’t we discussing cast iron pans?
Anyone got one of those cast irons with the enamel coating? Seen them around a fair bit lately but seems like it kinda defeats the purpose.
We've got a couple of enamel coated caste iron pots and they're great.
I've also got a couple of traditional style caste iron pots and a pan and they are also great but I mainly use them for camping when I'm cooking on or in a campfire.
I'm not exactly sure what the exact benefit of the enamel coated stuff might be over a regular caste iron pot. I guess you don't have to season them or worry about them rusting and you can clean them with soap whilst still getting the evenly distributed heat of a caste iron pan.
I wouldn't so I'm a massive advocate of enamel coated pots and wouldn't have access to them if my partner hadn't of bought them but they are definitely nice to cook with.
Not sure sure why all this Mikey A talk is going on in here. Make a new thread for this gimp
there are some exceptions tho. like for stews they're great because anything that gets stuck when sauteeing will get loosened up while simmering for the next few hours. they're good for baking bread too. but idk, maybe i just don't get it. i'm not a great cook tbh
Yeah this is exactly right. The only enameled cast iron I have is my dutch oven. it's the best for curry or stews or red beans and rice, anything you want to simmer for a while. I have also heard you can bake in them but I haven't tried that.
Yep can also confirm that the enamel pots are great for stews and baking bread

i was one time pulled over {australia} by the police for having a heroin sticker on my car. they asked me to remove it and also asked if i had any drugs in the car. i told them i had no heroin. i did not remove the sticker. was a weird one...
It’s a dumb name and their graphics are shit but I back the company. Their egg shapes are the best.
It's an ode to the addictiveness of skateboarding, and how it takes a hold of you like a drug addiction would. With Heroin and skateboarding both being very habit-forming, I think it's a super clever name. Plus you can say stuff like "I love Heroin" and be coherent enough to see the disgusted looks on the faces around you. FOS does the graphics himself and they can be hit or miss, but I'd say a lot more hits than misses.
-
The glorification of alcohol in skateboarding is a lot more damaging than a company simply called 'Heroin'. From what I have seen it's a name only, the graphics and design in no way alludes to drug use whatsoever.
Also, my cast iron pan was starting to stick, so I oiled it up and put it in the oven a few times, and now it's as good as new. The best result was when I rubbed it with a bit of lard then baked it in. I've been making these omelettes with eggs from our chickens that are top notch, the egg just peels straight off that pan. No clean up needed, just wipe all the shit out with paper towel.

Looking forward to getting back here with my Le Creuset I accidentally left it on the range and I’ve reseasoned it but it’s just not yet back to where it was. Should probably intervene with the oven.

Usually stuff slides right off, but sometimes they don't.
My next level of cleaning is rock salt +/- more oil
Next level after that is water,
After that water and soap ....
but then of course I have to slick it up again.... Only happens if someone cooks something super sticky.

it's crazy cause, like, the triangle shape of a dorito can very much be used as a brand trajectory for IC. IC was only on the come up, eventually reaching their apex and full potential with the doritos collab, the upper point of metaphoric dorito triangle. Since, they have only experienced a steep decline, symbolized by the downward slope of the metaphoric dorito following its apex.

Seems like Mikey is dealing with some mental health problems, really should just disconnect for a while. Feels like it’s such a nosedive from his previous self I almost feel bad for him. Hope he can turn it around and come back to earth, find happiness wherever that may be. Seems like his relationship with skating has turned toxic, he should step away and pivot fully to do his fashion instagram brand thing or whatever, he almost fits in that world, but he’s done in skating. He will realize that soon enough.

Hope he can turn it around and come back to earth, find happiness wherever that may be. Seems like his relationship with skating has turned toxic, he should step away and pivot fully to do his fashion instagram brand thing or whatever, he almost fits in that world, but he’s done in skating. He will realize that soon enough.
you’re right. he can say idgaf all he wants but idk it seems like he be giving a lot of those. idk him personally but dude it’s okay to admit if u be feelin some way. all that hard posturing is mad corny and is jus a disservice to himself
Waiting for an anti semetic pivot tbh, ride that Kanye wave.

if I ran a once semi-successful brand or business, and literally all of my employees quit, I would be giving many many fucks. The "dgaf" stay hard attitude is merely a defense mechanism born out of fear of judgement. I genuinely don't believe that any long term good comes out of this way of thinking/ presenting yourself. Acting out of fear will lead you down a very unfulfilling path.
I hope Mikey finds his peace when all of this is said and done.

Most Van Nuys dude I’ve ever seenn. only thing that actually makes sense is he had family money to buy weed for all the homies/ a car before everyone that used to fuck with him started getting paid to skate and could afford their own weed and cars. Just a guess tho idk anything about this kid.
Pretty braindead to post your cousins (or whoever that is) charges and think youre flexing. Especially when you look like urkle.
Give it a month or less before he is [openly] on here arguing with trolls about Doritos and looking like Urkle. Should be funny

Used to live there 7 years ago. Nothing but rich kids that look like Mikey Alfred/ OFWGDGAF type borons, and rich transplants living in huge apartments. But then be out all day eating fake Xanax. Maybe the vibe has shifted since then, it was peak hover boarding hours I think.

Now that I look into it. Godspeed, Alex and the boys turning pro, and IC going full in as as board brand all happened at the end of 2020.

i understand the sentiment and i’m aware of the hardships related to such and i can’t and don’t speak for anyone other than myself but my mom died from heroin 3 years ago and i still am stoked to see heroin boards at the shop.
Listen man i'm not telling you how to grieve but if my mom got eaten by a bear i probably wouldn't be buying a lot of fucking grizzly grip
a few people close to me have died from heroin ODs but it doesn't stop me from riding heroin boards; theyre cool shapes with decent graphics, what more do you need?
not trying to rock any heroin brand merch tho, seems pretty stupid to me. rolling down the street in a cartoon hand drawn "heroin" logo? nah man, whats next, slapping an "ISIS" sticker on my car? "SCHOOL SHOOTER" brand t shirt? i don't think so
but anyway let's get back on topic-- the carbon steel pan that I was complaining about a few months ago is a lot better now. i just needed to cook a few rounds of bacon in it. still not perfect, and i should probably season it properly, but it's incredible what a little bacon grease can do.

-Lack of empathy
-Preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
-Requiring excessive admiration
-Taking advantage of others
-Believing that they are "special" and can only be understood by other special or high-status people
-
Someone get him some help if he thinks anyone is going to pay him (or anyone) 100k a day to film skating. Dan Wolfe deserves that day rate, not some dumbass LA cunt.

What an insane piece of shit he is, clearly a spoiled brat who’s never worked a day in his life, treating teenagers like his subordinates / slaves.

Glad the kid got iPhone angles. I would like to see his agent produce one of those contracts tho. I for one am interested to know who what where and why he made 100K a day. I am even more interested to know why he felt the need to make it up to hold a teenagers footage hostage
-
what makes you think he was joking.. i don’t think this dude would post that if he was joking? also not a cool way to handle business by any means, even if he was. people used to hate on jamie thomas for the way he handled his team at times… just look at how far it’s really gone. nothing about that message, the context or any of his recent behavior seems like he’s joking at all. funny how he posts stuff like “yeah you know we just didn’t see eye to eye & they weren’t promoting enough, no hard feelings” then unfollows immediately (possibly blocks being that they immediately don’t follow him either) all of the riders once they’re off. he’s the same guy who is going to sand the other dude’s names off his boards, put equally as shitty “art” on them & then resell. look at any of his recent behavior and see if you still think he’s joking…

I’d honestly guess from him paying himself that rate. The only explanation.
I went to grad film school along with legit cream of the crop cinematographers. Nine years on, the only two I could think are making in the ballpark of that rate are ones DPing features with wide releases.

Homie should flip the script and say Mikey gave them (minors) drugs and alcohol. And more or less be like give me my clips and this doesn’t have to become a police report. I’m not sure how easy any of this would be. But fuck how much Mikey sucks. He needs his ass beat.
Also did I miss why all the people that was gonna be in this video is leaving? I get there like oh it’s a bad look for me to be involved with Mikey’s kooky ass but what happened for them to just now realize it.

Folks think Fat Bill is sus for his filming style but Mikey Alfred literally grooms kids for exploitation by offering them cheeseburgers and drugs, then steals their clips when they try to cut ties with him. Clearly none of what he does is out of goodwill or looking out for them, judging by the way he keeps score and retaliates against them.
What’s actually surprising is he doesn’t realize how bad a look publicly beefing with 15 year olds and shitting on them is, especially while he’s trying to promote a video that comes out this week. He’s eventually gonna have to accept that no matter how much cash his rich parents inject into this project it’ll never be a legit board company.

There's some POV VX camerawork in Mid-90s and I'm gonna guess Mikey, one of the many producers of that film, hired himself to shoot it and figured out how to get a bonus out of the budget to the tune of 100k a day. That's also why WME or CAA or whoever would have a record of those numbers handy since what an above-the-line talent (in this case a cinematographer) got paid on their last project kinda determines what they get paid for their next project.
It's weird...even is his IMDB credits are sorta padded out. He gives himself a "curator" credit, along with a producer, writer, cinematographer and self credit, for an Illegal Civ TV mini series from 2016 that probably doesn't exist in any kinda real, watchable form. Mikey Alfred plays himself.

he’s also a mega kook who truly believes he’s a “big time hollywood film maker” now. did an interview trashing on spike jonze & jonah, somehow got vince vaughn and that disney girl in his movie… i don’t think we’re the ones who are “dense”, i think he is. again, listen to the guy talk (which i don’t ever recommend, just in the sense that you really think he’s just being snub). this guy really thinks he’s worth that much. he didn’t say “well we had some big losses this year, we will rebuild though & make up for our losses, thanks for continuing to believe in us.” or anything close to heartfelt appreciation for the loyal fans he still somehow has… he was a complete arrogant dickhead about all of those losses & made a joke of them as if he is worth more. just as his message to this kid read out. i think you’re forgetting who we’re talking about by relating mikey alfred to a relatable person, as in someone who is not completely delusional in the midst of a mental breakdown. is mikey taylor just being cutesy & not genuinely trying to sell us on pyramid schemes? is steve berra not really a scientologist?

Don't think IMDb can really be trusted in any sort of official capacity. People put skits they made in highschool and shit in their credits. That being said it's pretty quick way to see if someone's legit or not as anyone of worth probably isn't padding out their own IMDb profile with bullshit.

but it's incredible what a little bacon grease can do.
You ain’t kidding. Fixed a squeaky rear barn door on an Astro van with bacon grease one summer. It’d melt and drip off every few days in the heat but I was eating paleo bro, tons of it available.
Mr Alfred’s insistence on running / owning the show—won’t get out of (race car) bed and button up his orange cardigan for less than 100K—could come back to haunt him if that security guard in the HELLWEEKTRAILER starts asking who’s responsible for his karate chopped wrists. GX1000 / Thrasher etc…especially when it’s increasingly apparent he’s the quintessential icky Peter Pan groomer guy.
I’d like one of these kids’ dad turn out to be on some Trae the Tank Dad vibes. Mikey Alfred vs Low T Roid Rage Man. Two versions of the same shit.
I definitely love this!

it's a made up number. why not just 'sorry dude, your clips will cost elventy trillion dollars'?
no actual person has or would ever pay him 100k to do anything, let alone a day's filming.

he’s posturing for sure with the 700k thing, but still has no plans on brokering a reasonable deal.

I think he's trying to flex his status as a "filmmaker". He's saying "fuck you, you can't have you can't have your clips. I'm a Hollywood mover and shaker now and I don't get out of bed for less than $100k."
he’s posturing for sure with the 700k thing, but still has no plans on brokering a reasonable deal.
I'm not sure which one of these situations is actually worse.
Being delusional enough to think you're worth that is pretty bad.
But so is being so detached that thinking that posturing in that way was in any way a cool thing to do, like if he was in fact just joking to be mean, imagine being him and explaining this to someone who isnt a self absorbed psychopath? It's fucking weird and toxic. The kid was man enough to be real with you, the least you could do is be a man with him in return and move on from this without creating more bullshit. You're just holding this kids footy hostage, as an adult. Work out a reasonable deal for it, as an adult.

700k for this?!

Yeah whatever happened to that, baker still do their distribution or has that been over for a long time?
i seem to remember when the last IC vid came out a lot of people were actually hyped on it werent they? i just saw a bunch of kids fighting with each other and stopped watching.

would love to see mikey alfred's contract outlining his $100k daily rate. post the contract mikey, i know you're reading this
He obviously has no contract of any sort or the people being filmed would have seen it first and had to sign it prior to being filmed. What he’s doing is more along the lines of extortion

release the hostages!!!

hella fuckery in this trailer
https://youtu.be/DA0ucDREGZA
Redeeming moments:
Don't condone smashing the car window or fighting pedestrians but kind of funny if that Karen actually dropped an N bomb.
Also hilarious when the dude watched the board back from the fit bro and then laughs in his face.
The altercation with the Take Me Home shirt could've been humorous and was botched when Mikey threatened to KO someone who's clearly a little off.
Too many ABDs in this trailer.
Aside from that just bad looks all around.
That lil kid that having his clips held hostage response was hilarious. Like obviously a little naive (as one might expect from a grom), but also kind of bad ass way of calling out the ridiculousness of the situation.
Now there's Cariuma kids on the squad?
Most of the boards in the clips aren't even IC.
Mikey had lux cars in previous videos but seems to have majorly downgraded in that "We robbed a pedestrian" video. Also IC had a mansion at one point. Not that the materialistic shit matters, (Boohoo first world problems) but it's a clear indication of a drastic fall off.
Clearly doesn't seem to be taking it well. I think people should stop beating a dead horse. Like yeah the dude kooked a thousand times but cyberbullying someone who potentially is going off the rails is pretty kooky too.
The "187 means murder" post on IG was forsure wack af at first glance, but also could be a red flag who knows?

The Dalton filmer guy Mikey refers to in the text said that he would’ve wanted to release Logan’s clips or give them to him but he’s under contract with Mikey and would be sued if he released them

Some of y’all are dense. He’s not expecting a kid to literally come up with 700k. He’s telling this kid he’s not getting his clips and to fuck off, and trying to sound like a big shot while doing it. He’s not “joking” he’s fucking this kid over. Footage is probably already deleted
I think this is the nuts of it.
Also, this kid could of at least said please.
he's a kid lmao, how are people more critical of a KID than a grown ass adult exploiting them for a dead brand

Well that’s understandable that the filmer would have to sign a contract with the company they are filming for. Who knows how it’s worded though. Sounds like the kid skating is just going to get burned.

I didn’t think I was being particularly critical, just observing that usually if you are going to request something of someone, it usually helps to use some manners, pretty normal worldwide practice that’s not exclusive to adults.

Yeah, to ask for the clips is dumb, but he’s a kid who probably believe Mikeys ‘we’re best friends’ shit. Mikeys reply is actually funny, but it’s the nail in his coffin.
Also this Dalton dude should up his day rate to 100k.
So who’s going to this launch for $35 to watch Mikey sing?

I always though his "aesthetic" fit Baker at the time but his skating was very underwhelming for how hesh he looked.

Dalton dude’s gotta think faster. There’s no contract. Mikey’s probably just guilt tripping him about the footage or baselessly told him he would sue if he handed over the footage
-
My understanding is that, generally, the person who films a clip or takes a photo, owns the copyright (i.e. when Bradley Cooper took that selfie at the Oscars with Ellen and a bunch of other celebs, a few years back -- Cooper owns the copyright), unless the subject has worked out a work-made-for-hire deal/contract with the filmer/photographer.
If the filmer/photographer in question has a work-made-for-hire deal/contract with an overarching company, then it is the company who is the entity that owns the copyright on the clip/photo.
The rider would have to have a work-made-for-hire contract with a filmer/photographer, where it is the latter whom is working as a w-mf-h for the former, in order for a rider to legally own his clips/photos. I'm sure that is what Appleyard had when he said he was tired with working with Element's filmers so he just hired his own.

Spanky and the other pros not featured were either incredibly smart or lucky not to be included. Greco really leaned in and still managed to come off like he always did back then, but Szafranski was creep city, what a turd. I wasn't surprised when that mimbo fell off (and has yet to recover).

I think you guys are missing out on the fact that Mikey’s “legal team” is probably some cheapo entertainment lawyer service.
If mikey wants to go corporate hardass on Logan he’s gonna get whats coming to him.
1. In some way shape or form Mikey is breaking child labor laws by filming kids all day and making them smoke weed on camera.
2. Its LA/the Valley. Some pedlow grom probably has a crazy lawyer dad that’ll jump on the opportunity to make some money off this.

hot take but the kid is a bit of a dunce, expecting to get his footage from the guy/company that put him on, filmed him, supported him in some way via taking him to spots and feeding him. After burning the guy/company by saying he no longer wants to be in his video. Guess everything was cool until Gifted Hater started talking shit, now junior doesn't want to play for the losing team. Mikey is probably the Kook of the Year, although he really wasn't exploiting this kid. Drove him around and filmed him and gave him some shine in the video. Pretty standard stuff for a flow kid to do. The kid is good but he's not blowing minds, pretty basic fs rail chomping by the looks of it.
Now that I think about it, it's pretty smart burning Mikey and IC with this shit, using the negative hype around him/ the brand to boost his own name. Becoming like a martyr for the cause. I'd be surprised if that was his angle all along.
Really, it just pretty wack to burn the dude that was putting you on, even if that guy is Mikey Alfred.

Both of these kids have crazy talent, neither of them are stray dogs or homeless people who need Mikey to “take them to spots” and “feed them.” Expecting people to be grateful for being taken advantage of is some abusive partner shit.
Dude is a 30 year old RuPaul lookalike who plies impressionable young boys with cheeseburgers, he doesn’t deserve anyones sympathy.

After burning the guy/company by saying he no longer wants to be in his video.
I don’t think this is a burn by any means. I don’t expect any 16 year old to be a wordsmith but he was about as respectful as someone can get at that age when a partnership isn’t working out.
If anyone I filmed with didn’t want to be a part of my projects, yeah, I’d give them their footage - if they don’t want in I don’t want them in. But you just gotta ask. If someone goes “fuck you @Allen., you’re a fucking prick, btw can I have my footage?” That’s a little different obviously.

Yea, the kid was kinda dumb if he just expected his footy after all that. But he's just some dumb kid. Mikey is an adult. Should have just made a reasonable deal with the kid for his clips and moved on.
BUT INSTEAD HE GIVES US SOME SWEET SWEET DRAMA.
Thanks Mikey, watching you and by proxy your brand implode has been the most entertaining thing in skateboarding this week.
Aside from well, you know, actually riding your skateboard.

Gotta admit this shit is amusing as hell to me. Just looked through the skaters profiles and it seems like everybody recently tagged in IC posts has made some anti-IC statement at this point.
But that's ok because the real reason people are going to the event is Mikey Alfredo singing

Is it normal to ask $33 to get in the door at a premiere? Most premieres I have been to have been free. (Barring small premieres where the door pays for a case of beer or something.)
I know dude isn't having an open bar/buffet. That means $33 plus food/beverage. But hey...magic...i guess...

i'm so glad the ACTUAL filmer left. really is the icing on the cake.

It IS possible to want to help and mentor other young men without it being grooming. The term, "grooming," has HEAVY sexual connotations attached to it and even though Mikey is Mikey, it's supremely fucked up to label someone as a groomer when you have absolutely no basis to do so. Maybe he was, "grooming," them to be a successful skateboarder.
Did Rick and Mike groom kids who they kept in flow purgatory? Has every other adult male who ran a board company and took kids on trips a predator?

yo alfredo gon have the shooters on deck. it’s gon have to be a stealth mission sorry
I will fly to LA and if Mikey can produce 1 single shooter with a real loaded gun I’ll pay his $100k a day fee. No chance he runs in any circles with real shooters.
I mean Baby Stone Gorillas are headlining it... I don't think they'd show up to perform on to that side of town without goons
In this vid they link up with Earl Swavey (RIP) and bloods

Mikey's cousin, that he alluded to in that video and in that IG story, was from Mad Swan Bloods

hot take but the kid is a bit of a dunce, expecting to get his footage from the guy/company that put him on, filmed him, supported him in some way via taking him to spots and feeding him. After burning the guy/company by saying he no longer wants to be in his video. Guess everything was cool until Gifted Hater started talking shit, now junior doesn't want to play for the losing team. Mikey is probably the Kook of the Year, although he really wasn't exploiting this kid. Drove him around and filmed him and gave him some shine in the video. Pretty standard stuff for a flow kid to do. The kid is good but he's not blowing minds, pretty basic fs rail chomping by the looks of it.
Now that I think about it, it's pretty smart burning Mikey and IC with this shit, using the negative hype around him/ the brand to boost his own name. Becoming like a martyr for the cause. I'd be surprised if that was his angle all along.
Really, it just pretty wack to burn the dude that was putting you on, even if that guy is Mikey Alfred.
One of the kids jumping ship said they were being lied to about the footage and what was being used. The dude grinded like a 20-stair and it was put in the trailer.
Also Mikey mentioned having to also pay the filmer in addition to the $700k for hostage footage screenhots... but now the filmer is leaving?
The kids were probably eager to get started with a company that was at one point affiliated with reputable pros of today.
Like it or not IC did have some accolades before falling off
THe grom said I appreciate everything but it's time tog o, and Mikey responded sounds good bro. Mikey only retorted with the $700k ransom after the kid about the footage. $700k isn't a "sounds good bro" response. It's reasonable for him to ask for some cash to cover the time/effort but if he'd made a realistic figure he could've at least got some cash from a shitty situation.
The clickbait "we robbed someone" video has some susitivity and it seems probable that they didn't know how they'd be portrayed until seeing the final product
Obviously there are two sides to the story so we can't fully know...
But if dishonesty, cringe marketing tactics, and using the brand social media to be defensive toward overwhelming valid constructive criticism.. aren't enough reasons to leave a brand in your opinion, I'm really curious to know what you would consider appropriate grounds to leave a brand?

Just went through the whole thread. It goes from Mikey getting called out by Tyshawn for dressing wacky to the utter and complete collapse of Illegal Civilization.
Hollywood and the whole Los Angeles area in general just gives me the creeps. I just finished reading Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis and I am thoroughly scared of the geography of the city. I hope Mikey Alfred finds himself soon and doesn't
end up getting lost up in the hills at parties on Mulholland Drive. The canyons will get you man, avoid them.

I definitely got the vibe that since gary is somehow connected to IC/ Mikey he was trying to put out a fire tyshawn was gonna start before it started. But I definitely think gary just did this to protect himself from scrutiny. Not cause he cares about Mikey. Get off your soapbox gary. You talk shit on a weekly show don’t act like this was anything more than trying save your ass from getting clowned on along with Mikey.

Almost every IC thing they’ve done Gary has either been at the show or in the video. He’s just trying not to get kooked out the industry. Which should’ve happened after Bake n Destroy when he kept calling Reynolds “Rick Reynolds” and kept air balling varial heels.

That is for sure a fucking stretch of the century, that kid is like 15 at the oldest, from the vids I’ve seen he is a typical fried teenager who would never have any idea of the meaning behind “88.” Why would a racist get on a team that has claimed to support black people and is black-owned? Not to mention that two of the skaters on the team are black, and Mikey never said anything while this whole group was still together. Absolutely fucking vile that he tarnishes this kid’s reputation over some petty bullshit. It’s not even like the Bam kid was disrespectful about leaving IC, I saw a story where he kept it as professional as he could and didn’t say anything directly against Mikey. Not to mention Mikey just calling Logan a “racist clout chaser” with absolutely ZERO fucking evidence besides the fact that Logan’s post about IC was his most popular.
These accusations are coming from Mikey, who thought that filming homeless people getting harassed and animal abuse was cool. Mikey calling IC a black-owned business and using that as a rhetoric to deflect criticism and to justify his actions is such a disrespect to black representation in the skate industry.
Mikey definitely deserves an ass beating atp, he needs to be put in his place. Disappointing to see thrasher and Reynolds’s and other figures in skating still follow them

Insane racist claim against Logan for not wanting to be in this man's skateboard video. I guess Nakel and Tyshawn are racists too. No way I can support their new board brand knowing they BOTH took advantage of a black owned business for clout

schadenfreude i know, but i love this. although torn between being compassionate of someone else's mental struggles and thinking he deserves everything bad that comes his way, i'm leaning heavily toward the latter. i guess extreme narcissism is not a very sympathetic disorder. his projecting of "clout chaser" to these kids is too funny!

Gotta disagree here, Kanye has incredible talent. Mikey has none and doesn’t even skate, it’s not like he’s some old pro starting a board company after his prime. He’s basically the Lou Pearlman of skateboarding, collecting a squad of young boys and exploiting / extorting them for profit.

Are we supposed to have compassion for "mental health issues" that are just the result of them willingly, consciously, being shitty egotistical people?
Like yea, you had a mental breakdown because everyone turned on you for doing some dumbass shit and your ego made you double/triple/quadruple down.
Sorry?
He clearly needs to have an ego death, those usually look like mental breakdowns from the outside.

I don’t know the right way to say it but some narcissists/sociopaths practically cultivate bad mental health so they can milk it for sympathy. Or use it as a cover for shitty behavior.

Nope. Falling back to mental health issues in an attempt to deflect criticism is scummy and not a good excuse. These accusations of racism are also extremely dangerous for the kids he is accusing, since there are always people who will quickly accept accusations without questioning it or without proof.
Of course, death threats or wishes of self harm is never okay which personally I haven't seen anyone send to Mikey (then again there are literally thousands of comments on the IC page).

He's the worst I'm so excited for IC to die I love seeing all the little kids talking shit on iC saying its done. Dumb ass fucking company. Prime clout chaser calling other Kids out for what he literally did to get to where he's at

You also have to balance your sympathy for the unwell with the reality that millions of people are inducing their myriad mental illnesses by doing nothing but engaging with social media 24/7.

Imagine getting support from Tyshawn, Nak, Ishod, and other industry big names to support your company (even though they rode for other brands) and also having pretty promising talents such as Zach Sareceno and Alex Midler actually riding for your little kid drawing brand and still fucking that up. Wasn't a huge "Godspeed" fan but alot of hard work was put in for a company headed by a dude with zero vision or good ideas. Davonte Jolly is like Logan Lara and Mikey Alfred is Alex Olson if AO couldn't skate and was obsessed with Doritos instead of house music.

What a blatant display of toxic positivity. Get real Gary, you're just embarrassed to be involved with that fucking clown. Don't try to disguise protecting your ego as some sort of gesture of racial equity, you are so full of shit.
Do you know the context/status of their friendship currenty?
I haven't seen anything giving insight into the fallout with the OG crew.
There hasn't been any direct beef aside from the passive aggressive "no one wanted to promote it all good tho it's just business". The Mikey beef is with the new kids that quickly jumped ship (at least from what I've seen... I could def may have missed something tho?).
If they were close maybe it would be foul to jump in on the criticism publicly without chatting with Alfred beforehand.
Gary had a smile saying it so he could've been trolling with a cliche like that, and didn't want to just say "no comment" because he is Gary Rodgers and not some media-trained politician

If nothing else comes of this, I hope some people in skateboarding begin to understand that "[insert minority]-owned business" does not by its nature instill any particular virtue.

No, I do not give a shit about Mr. Alfredos relationship status with Gary.
No relationship status makes feigning a stance on racial equity to swerve a topic the right move.
How long until Alfey reaches critical mass? Should we expect some grand display of rage at the premier? That would make a sick opener to that 8bam8 kids next part if he makes one.

Yeah that take definitely seemed like a big reach.
In the screencap you can see in the bio that the lil dude is sponsored or affiliated with Section8 clothing.
The soundcloud rap/hardcore fusion demographic of kids love that brand. The name itself is alluding to low income housing.
I think he's basically just shouting them out in his handle like how ppl would put xX Xx, or underscores at the end of screennames.

We use soap on our cast irons every time we cook in them and then just heat them up to steam off all the water and add a thin layer of neutral oil and it’s fine. If you seasoned it fine the first time and you don’t let it sit in soapy water (or any water), it’ll be fine.
If you never use soap, you’re eventually just letting oil, butter, and juices sit and fester and go rancid on the pan. Seasoning on its own doesn’t make it anti-microbial or clean. It just stops stuff from sticking to it.

Mikey could speak in a way that sounded "professional" and he looked clean and weird, so he sucked up corporate endorsemets and intros from people who thought he was the next "it" guy, and turned it into something for a minute, but when you hear him on Nine Club or Jenkem, he talks more about his ambition and "working hard" than he does about anything he's passionate about. Which is like... there's just no "there" there. When he was talking in the same passionate way about Doritos as he was Mid-90s I was like "oh this guy is not a genuinely talented ego-maniac, he's a fucking kook" because he only had one schtick, the sincere up-and-comer. Instead of intellectualizing Dorito's design aesthetics like a fool he should have said "I like Doritos and they offered me a ton of money so here we are."
I don't see any evidence he can actually ride a skateboard, but if he'd gotten less, slower, I wonder if he could have been a good filmer. His child-like drawings are not any worse than Neckface, Gonz, or Ed, so the fact that I hate them is meaningless. There's nothing worse about the brand as a brand than any other shitty skate brand I dislike.
Because his brand was built entirely on bullshit, when it started to fall apart, there was no real Mikey to fall back on, so you just see increasing try-hard nonsense and now the descent into delusional thinking. But the reality is when the people who matter / with the money see that you're bullshit, they move on to the next flavor of the week.
To me the kookiest thing is giving kids pot. In real life you either tell the little kids to go inside while you get high, or you tell them to fuck off, or you turn off the camera. It would have been a much better shot if he'd looked at the joints and the kids and said "ok ok stop filming," but he's too much of a poser to understand that.
More importantly -- I think if you use clarified butter when you fry a steak in cast iron, you get great butter flavor but you can do it at high af heat since it won't smoke once the milk solids have been removed. I have lodge an la cruset pans and I back la cruset 100% but my lodge pan is bigger so for certain things like burgers, it has to be lodge. Dawn is OK as long as you oil it and dry it really well asap.
Anyway if Mikey isn't shilling NFTs next month I'll be surprised.

Mikey calling IC a black-owned business and using that as a rhetoric to deflect criticism and to justify his actions is such a disrespect to black representation in the skate industry.

What’s great about Mikey going after those two teenage skate rats is that he’s a celebrity figure using his platform with 400k followers to slander them by calling them racists and hitler worshippers, which could be legitimate grounds for a defamation lawsuit. Would be hilarious if they sued for 700k in damages.

Mikey could speak in a way that sounded "professional" and he looked clean and weird, so he sucked up corporate endorsemets and intros from people who thought he was the next "it" guy, and turned it into something for a minute, but when you hear him on Nine Club or Jenkem, he talks more about his ambition and "working hard" than he does about anything he's passionate about. Which is like... there's just no "there" there. When he was talking in the same passionate way about Doritos as he was Mid-90s I was like "oh this guy is not a genuinely talented ego-maniac, he's a fucking kook" because he only had one schtick, the sincere up-and-comer. Instead of intellectualizing Dorito's design aesthetics like a fool he should have said "I like Doritos and they offered me a ton of money so here we are."
I don't see any evidence he can actually ride a skateboard, but if he'd gotten less, slower, I wonder if he could have been a good filmer. His child-like drawings are not any worse than Neckface, Gonz, or Ed, so the fact that I hate them is meaningless. There's nothing worse about the brand as a brand than any other shitty skate brand I dislike.
Because his brand was built entirely on bullshit, when it started to fall apart, there was no real Mikey to fall back on, so you just see increasing try-hard nonsense and now the descent into delusional thinking. But the reality is when the people who matter / with the money see that you're bullshit, they move on to the next flavor of the week.
To me the kookiest thing is giving kids pot. In real life you either tell the little kids to go inside while you get high, or you tell them to fuck off, or you turn off the camera. It would have been a much better shot if he'd looked at the joints and the kids and said "ok ok stop filming," but he's too much of a poser to understand that.
More importantly -- I think if you use clarified butter when you fry a steak in cast iron, you get great butter flavor but you can do it at high af heat since it won't smoke once the milk solids have been removed. I have lodge an la cruset pans and I back la cruset 100% but my lodge pan is bigger so for certain things like burgers, it has to be lodge. Dawn is OK as long as you oil it and dry it really well asap.
Anyway if Mikey isn't shilling NFTs next month I'll be surprised.
i would say that you’re wrong and gonz and neckface’s drawings are much more visually pleasing to the eye. everything else is on point

Who’s owned an Ill Civ deck?
Tryna ascertain what wood shop they decks be pressed by, and also solicit impressions/opinions on the shapes.
Way I figure: there’s about to be a warehouse of these things dumped onto the market at close-out prices.
I might like to be ready for that (seemingly inevitable) eventuality if’n they wood is good & they’ve got at least one shape I can gel with.
Some rattle can, or Brimmo’s razor technique & who’s to know your quiet shame from riding an Ill Civ bloard?!?

Intense this all happened in the span of like 5 days!
It's always a weird fucking dumb move taking your personal beef and airing it out through your brand, most often you just sink your own shit. If he had half a brain he'd have distanced his own shit from IC and maybe they wouldn't be drowning in a bunch of comments calling him a kook.
He'll probably manage to sell all this "engagement" to some dumb brand anyways.
Always a weird move to let someone who doesn't skate try to run something in the skate world.

it’s one thing to be a shitty skater but good filmer, photographer, designer, etc (he’s shit at all of those roles anyways) for skating. But to be a shitty skater and acting like you should have authority over ppl who actually can skate laps around you?? dudes a dumbass to say the least.

i could not make it more than a minute or so into that. holy shit! why do the interview if you can't even bother to point the phone at your face? it was funny seeing gary rogers has ic boards as wall hangers. hope OP or someone with a higher tolerance for shitty a/v quality posts synopsis.
the first thing Tyshawn says is "Let's discuss the man right here...I got 700K"
Then Gary laughs and briefly speaks on the subject.
thanks! i heard when gary didn't want to talk shit on a fellow black man. which, i respect...but mikey, really? dude is such kook. did they actually discuss him or the 700k controversy? regardless, stoked tj is doing his own thing. wonder if it is gonna be under FA or all his own?
No, they didn't actually talk about it. Gary said his piece about not wanting to add to the drama surrounding someone who's dealing with mental health and then changed the subject back to Tyshawn.
What a blatant display of toxic positivity. Get real Gary, you're just embarrassed to be involved with that fucking clown. Don't try to disguise protecting your ego as some sort of gesture of racial equity, you are so full of shit.
Glad Tyshawn doesn't share this micro-brained perspective and just brought that shit up right off the jump. Tyshawn's the one that's actually out here doing shit for the black community, starting businesses, employing people, and having community events.
I definitely got the vibe that since gary is somehow connected to IC/ Mikey he was trying to put out a fire tyshawn was gonna start before it started. But I definitely think gary just did this to protect himself from scrutiny. Not cause he cares about Mikey. Get off your soapbox gary. You talk shit on a weekly show don’t act like this was anything more than trying save your ass from getting clowned on along with Mikey.
right, Gary downplaying the situation while running a weekly show dedicated to talking shit is laughable.
as others mentioned, he has IC pro boards on his wall in that interview and funnily enough still had an IC board setup yesterday at the Halloween Hellride.

double posting to ad, you have to be lacking in any/all self awareness to post this on your brand's socials. the baseless accusations of racism against kids that are barely teenagers is one thing, but to call them "rich white kids" is a whole other thing entirely when you're the owner and you're responding to a t-shirt being sold parodying your request for $700,000 for a single video part of said "rich white" teenager.
using your brand's platform to engage in beef is unprofessional enough, but if you are going to respond, at the very least you should probably have some base to your claims. Mikey is just making things worse for himself, without a doubt. and my guess would be that's probably one of his biggest problems.

It's pretty funny how IC is failing despite all the favors/connections/privilege Alfredo mike had.
People were actually buying this shit despite his HORRIBLE "art" and at the very least people respected the skating.
All he had to do was take care of his riders, stfu, and not totally kook it.
And he just couldn't manage to do that lol was NOT in the cards for him

Totally forgot about this, it was actually when they were replaying Jamie Foys run/ best trick win clip and Gary is completely ignoring it while rambling about North Hollywood and all the “dope shit” IC has planned for this year. Apparently paying your riders in hamburger patties and shared joints isn’t the best way to manage a company. Odd that Gary is so invested in this kook.

I don't know anything about Hollywood, but aren't both of these people pretty big players? Spike Jonze has a new movie coming out at Christmas starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie, which sounds like a big deal to me but I have no idea.

Are you thinking of Babylon? That’s a Damien Chazelle flick I’m pretty sure.
Shitting on Jonah and Spike are just dumb things to do, clearly he wanted them to Executive Produce North Hollywood and I guarantee they weren’t fans of the script Mikey cobbled together in a couple months (Jonah and Spike, and most proper filmmakers spend years developing their screenplays).
He also posted his agency’s (William Morris Endeavor) pass emails from all the studios/distributors on instagram and you could still read the execs names and their reactions to the film, such a clown…

In case you somehow missed it. Also Spike Jonze and Jonah Hill have six Oscars, between them. Probably not the best thing to go burning bridges with them.
https://youtu.be/HiVbpAK-LlU
Hate to fact check you here but they have 1 win between them and 5 noms. Also, they are far from pillars of the industry these days. You could alienate them and get by if you have talent.
My mistake. I did a quick Google search and that's what it came up, but that was the total number of nominations, not wins. I don't know anything about Hollywood, but aren't both of these people pretty big players? Spike Jonze has a new movie coming out at Christmas starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie, which sounds like a big deal to me but I have no idea.
For the conspiracy thread: Turns out Spike directed his people to quietly pay the whole IC team to bail as retribution for his mud slinging.
Would take a skate minded person to know how/when to kneecap a company that effectively.

That would def explain the whole doritos being "connected to skateboarding in an authentic way" thing. Maybe M. Alfredo knows something we dont.

Are you thinking of Babylon? That’s a Damien Chazelle flick I’m pretty sure.
Shitting on Jonah and Spike are just dumb things to do, clearly he wanted them to Executive Produce North Hollywood and I guarantee they weren’t fans of the script Mikey cobbled together in a couple months (Jonah and Spike, and most proper filmmakers spend years developing their screenplays).
He also posted his agency’s (William Morris Endeavor) pass emails from all the studios/distributors on instagram and you could still read the execs names and their reactions to the film, such a clown…
https://www.instagram.com/p/CBn2pyrnrmc/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
Also, he has no concept that in LA, everyone makes their rejections nice as possible just in case and it being “too small” is the nicest rejection you could do that no one will ever hold against you. Mid90s only got made bc A24 was a distributor already and wanted to be in the Jonah Hill business.

Think of how crushing it must feel to standby & witness your industry contemporaries collabing w/ luxury brands & the like, while you’re stuck shilling for Doritos, trying to convince people of how iconic a triangle is.
It’s gotta burn a little & frankly, you just love to see it.

Offtopic (but kinda related?):
First time seeing this post and WOW he really tries to make it deeper than it actually is.
North Hollywood had terrible writing. Main character is static and a complete dick throughout the whole movie. Many of his interactions with the other characters is summed up as:
A: "I want to be a professional skater."
B: "Well I don't, I'm not looking to have skating as a job and I want to go to college or work."
A: "You're a bitch and fucking useless to me."
I'm not even kidding, this is quite literally what happens in the movie.
The movie is riddled with cameos just for the sake of it. Miranda Cosgrove's character was pointless and was only added just so her name could be put on the headline. If her character was removed, the plot would be unchanged. Vince Vaughn's character was obviously supposed to be unlikeable but he's actually one of the most down to earth characters, alongside with Aramis Hudson's character whose name is Adolf (symbolism?).

Excellent interview https://www.frannieandali.com/home/2019/2/25/mikey-alfred
MIKEY ALFRED: So here's something I would say to people, because people always bring that up, the Robert Evans thing or the Tyler thing or whatever. If I give a 15-year-old to the opportunity to meet Obama – you're going to sit in the room with Obama 20 times – but if you have nothing to offer Obama, it means nothing. You'll sit in the room with him. You guys'll have your conversation, and then you'll leave. Now if I put you in the room with Obama, and you have some type of plan, and you have some type of thing you want to get out of him, then that can help you.
MIKEY ALFRED: So I have a cousin, Evan Alfred. We have the same last name. He's for real my cousin. He killed two people, and he's in prison right now for 90 years. Did that when he was like 15. I speak to him regularly, write letters, talk to him on the phone. And I'm not scared of him.

The Word privilege should never leave this man's lips unless he is saying "I am one of the most privileged people to ever live"
MIKEY ALFRED: Here's a perfect example of that. So I had a neighbor. Her name is Paula Madison. Paula's incredible woman. She is older, from Harlem, used to run Diversity In Journalism at NBC. So she's extremely wealthy, extremely connected. And when I was 16, I told her, "I love Ralph Lauren. That's my favorite brand."
She says, "Oh really? You love Ralph Lauren?" She says, "Do you know who Laura Manning is?" I said, "Yeah, of course. She's the vice president." She's like, "I'll call her right now." So she called her on the phone right in front of me. She said, "I have this kid. His name is Mikey Alfred. He loves Ralph Lauren. He wants to come to New York and meet you." She said, "Tell him to come out on Friday." It was Monday. So I was like, "OK." I bought a flight. I flew to New York.
I get to the Ralph Lauren building. You go up in the elevator. It opens. It's all wood panelling. There's this huge Ralph Lauren bronze statue in the middle of the floor.
FRANNIE: A statue of Ralph Lauren.
MIKEY ALFRED: No, no, no. Of the polo horse.
FRANNIE: OK. Just wanted to clarify.
MIKEY ALFRED: And you walk past it. You get to this little check-in desk. You tell them your name. They give you a sticker that I still have to this day, says your name with Ralph Lauren under it. Then you walk into this kind of palace. You're in New York. In the building though, they maybe have six or seven floors. You can see all six or seven floors from the first floor of that building. So I look up, and it's just huge oil paintings, huge bookshelves. There's people dusting mirrors, and you know, walking around serving water to people waiting in the lobby. So I'm sitting down. I'm waiting. I'm thinking, "Wow. I got here so quickly and so easily."
And I walk into the meeting. I sit with Laura Manning, and I start talking to her, and I'm telling her how big of a fan I am and all this stuff. And she said, "So what do you want to do with me? Why'd you want to meet?" And I was like, "I don't know. I just wanted to kind of learn stuff from you." And she was like, "Cool." And I walked out and I felt so stupid. And I was like, "Why didn't I walk in with a plan? Why didn't I have that thing to get out of it?" And I never talked to Laura Manning again, and we never worked on anything. And that was the time that taught me: don't be that person. Don't be that person who focuses on connection. Focus on what you're doing, and the right connection will come
-
That whole polo story read like the transcript to those Old Spice commercials.
I walk past the bronze statue. Wow. I’m here so quickly. I’m wearing a sticker with my name on it. You’re in New York. Look at me. I’m on a horse.

A little annoyed they didn’t give any pushback on the “bucket of money” story. It’s easy enough to parse that someone gave him a bunch of money and he pretends he earned it through sales, but Id like him to struggle a little bit with so,e cross examination

Those kids would be better with their footage in the video now, because with all this attention, there will potentially be a lot of eyes on it. It's free promo for them.

Every thing Mikey said was undercut by his own actions
I do think Mikey had the right idea. The kids could have rode out the vlog backlash and been fine. Skating speaks for it self. Old IC fans would move on and a new wave of kids would have been in to it(probably). It’s happened before. That was undercut by his own actions of posting bullshit on the IC page.
He didn’t follow his own advise of ignoring the hate. He’s not to first dude to hold footage hostage, it sucks but it happens. Logan did ask for his clips the wrong way and will learn from this. Mikey however went about doing it the wrong way and now it’s biting him in the ass.
I feel the bad for Dalton
Also he said illegal civ ain’t selling but I don’t see any product anywhere. Not of zumiez, not on paradeworld, but you got hundreds of boards ready to be sanded? Why hasn’t zumiez restocked?

The subtext as I read it is that he Mikey is flat fucking broke. Probably spent whatever savings or inheritance he had (notice how he dodges the question of where the money came from) and has no new revenue streams.

Jenkem: What’s going on with Logan’s footage? Is it going to come out in the video?
Mikey: Bro, it’s not even that sick. It’s not the sickest footage. The way I feel, I’m helping these kids by not using it. They’ll look back one day, like, “Man, Mikey was right. I’m glad I didn’t put out some weak ass shit.”
From where I sit, Logan and Benecio [Montalvo] are privileged cry babies who can’t handle negative comments tryna unfairly make money off a black man.
This shit is wild. Why the fuck would anyone wanna ride for your company after this? Like a week ago you were hyping up this video like crazy and now it's all trash and you're doing them a favor? You're not Dana White trashing people who leave the company because you're the only game in town, you're at best, a marginal company that sounds like it was propped up by an angel investment from who knows where. You were already viewed like a kook who's trying to profit off our culture and this interview is gonna do nothing to dissuade people of that notion.

Is being an egomaniac grasping at straws a mental struggle?
Dude got a bunch of money, thought he was gods gift to skateboarding and could burn through that money paying his friends high salaries and that his business savvy would keep the money train rolling and they would only get richer. When that didn’t happen, he expected everyone he was paying salaries to to start living off royalties because he wasn’t making any money. They understandably didn’t want to do that, left, and he probably sees them as a bunch of ingrates.
So he tries to start all over again with kids that he assume won’t expect anything and that he can manipulate to his will like some kind of third tier Malcolm MacLaren, only they fucking hate what they see and turn on him because they realize they’ll be kooked by association and he has a hissy fit because everyone is leaving him again, but again takes zero percent of the responsibility in that because his narcissism won’t allow him to think he did anything wrong.

His most recent Illegal Civ video seems to have pushed him into another tier of skateboarding and YouTube. It got like 100k views in a few days, and if you look (I've been going through his old videos at work this week), most of his older stuff has like 20-50k views after a year or two.

there are other skate board “drama” or news channels that get similar view counts in 50k range, but don’t get brought up on slap or other skateboard outlets, but they show up in recommend panel when watching GH. I wouldn’t even watch Joah if it weren’t for slap.

You put up a post about some of your former riders being racist. Do you really think that or is that more of you just being like, “Fuck these kids?”
That’s a funny way to phrase the question.
Just look at their actions, if you’re coming out skating everyday, you see some negative comments, you take a chance to get some clout out of it, and that’s it. That’s what happened.
Clout sharking doesn't equal racism you loser
What do you think about Logan making the 700k merch?
Well, that was the reason I posted what I posted. It’s one thing with Instagram comments, like OK, but it’s another thing to start profiting off of me and what I’m doing. It doesn’t feel good. It feels like colonialism in 2022. Embarrass the n**** and let’s sell tickets to the show. It’s kinda like that. It’s behaviors you probably don’t even know you have.

I was more laughing at Makaveli's turn of phrase here, but this is the main video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a1RZRdirqY
It's worth noting that this is GH's most viewed video, and George P has barely posted since his response (ironically George P's most viewed video in years). George P seems to be attempting to transition to some kind of stoic philosopher.
In all honesty though, GH has gone in much harder on people like John Hill, but those videos are on his Patreon.

The amount of bullshit the Nine Club have to do like dumb clip videos, being nice to pros, pretending to be interested, it must piss them off when this kid pops up a webcam and chats whenever he wants & says whatever he wants and destroys them.

What’s going on with Logan’s footage? Is it going to come out in the video?
Bro, it’s not even that sick. It’s not the sickest footage. The way I feel, I’m helping these kids by not using it. They’ll look back one day, like, “Man, Mikey was right. I’m glad I didn’t put out some weak ass shit.”
I figured he would want to use this interview as an opportunity to save face but he came off as an even bigger asshole lol
Dude forreal. Also completely glossed over the fact that he called a Jewish kid a Nazi.. mf can't own up to any of his shit.
Pretty smart move calling the footage in your video “not even that sick”
"Impressive, very nice. Let's see Mikey Alfred's footage."

Dude is seriously detached from reality.
Imagine living in a world where the people you surround yourself with are so shallow and self centered that people literally never ask you how you're doing, and when someone finally does, your brain short circuits and you take it as a compliment.

I can understand his position as well. Your homie is fucking up big time but you also know he's struggling, but you don't want your money to get fucked up because your boy can't log off

Do you think there was any merit to anything Gifted Hater said in his critique video?
I didn’t watch his video.
Over/under on how many times he’s really watched it, seething at his phone screen?
i picture alfredo in a dark room sitting alone in a director's chair, having converted GH's video to film reels, watching it on the projector over and over and over slowly driving him into madness.
More like George C Scott in Hardcore
I immediately thought of Howard Hughes:
“In 1958, Hughes told his aides that he wanted to screen some movies at a film studio near his home. He stayed in the studio's darkened screening room for more than four months, never leaving. He ate only chocolate bars and chicken and drank only milk, and was surrounded by dozens of boxes of Kleenex that he continuously stacked and re-arranged. He wrote detailed memos to his aides giving them explicit instructions neither to look at him nor speak to him unless spoken to.
Throughout this period, Hughes sat fixated in his chair, often naked, continuously watching movies. When he finally emerged in the summer of 1958, his hygiene was terrible. He had neither bathed nor cut his hair and nails for weeks.”

King Leopold's Ghost is an incredible book to read if you want to learn more about the Congolese Genocide. Historians don't know the exact figure of atrocities, but most speculate that at least 5-10 million people died between 1885 and 1908.
I also speculate, that Mr. Alfred has no idea what he's talking about when he mentions Colonialism.

It's also pretty ironic that if he would have supported and put on a team of non-white skaters in the first place (if he's phrasing this as an attack on a black-owned business you would think that he would have wanted to do so all along) he wouldn't even be able to make this argument right now at all.

Blood Meridian is fantastic but I prefer all the Border trilogy books. They are a little less abstract and made me feel like maybe I should try to be more like a stoic cowboy.
I read American Psycho 20 years ago while I was working overnight shifts in a petrol station in the middle of nowhere, wonderful though very disturbing read. I read somewhere it used to be sold in shrink wrap like a porno because it's content was so upsetting, pretty funny.

Not a cowboy book but speaking of McMurty, The Desert Rose is truly one of his best novels.. Very underrated and at one point was gonna be adapted into a Terrence Malick movie.

Revisiting the Jenkem interview, when Rob Mattox was asked about the original crew leaving he mentioned:
"The only thing he [Mikey] told me was that the other guys pretty much made it in skating and he was trying to bring a new crew together."
Perhaps Mikey is trying to rebrand the IC business model to be more akin to Termites? Little kid drawings for a little kid brand seems like a no-brainer, could even have the riders do their own graphics and pay them with Happy Meals. Maybe their art would be close to or as good as Mikey's.

That rubbed me the wrong way as well. I'll admit that I definitely smoked weed with adults at the skatepark when I was underage, but it was never on camera or anything. It was kind of known that it wasn't ok to make that shit public. In hindsight, it was definitely reckless and sketchy for adults to be giving weed to teenagers at the skatepark, even though these spaces have always been sort of a free for all. With that being said, its weird to see him openly defending this behavior to the skateboarding community at large. In my opinion, he should have refrained from commenting on that part of the situation.

What happened to the original IC team? Are you still friends with them?
The original team, everyone was getting paid out of a bucket of money essentially, and when that ran out, then it became like, well now sales have to pay the salaries. They never caught up,
Mikey Where did you get that initial amount of money to pay everyone?
Man, I mean IC, a lot of people hate on it, but it’s successful bro.
Kevin Everybody needs to work in unity to make this shit happen, not just Mikey asking us to promote, promote, promote. It’s skating and everyone understands that we have to promote this, it’s not just on us. He’s saying our board is selling like dogshit and he’s telling that to fans behind our backs.
Why weren't IC boards selling? it couldn't have just been the shit graphics. Lamer brands still sell boards. How is the brand successful but also not moving product?

this could certainly be the case but theres a slightly different scenario that's probably just as likely, which is that one of his wealthy family members or family friends made a big "investment" to get the project started, which has now run dry. happens a ton with rich kids i've known over the years, their parents want to give the kids some training wheels to simulate starting an actual business. and of course it has the benefit of not eating into their actual trust fund, god forbid

No you see they have so much dough in the family that they can afford to bankroll the kid's future and then the biz and the kid doesn't have to take it out of the other pot.

I do wanna put the breaks on some of this though in that Mikey's mom was personal assistant to Robert Evans but may not have made heavy dough during that period. One of my close friends was personal assistant to a producer that made movies you might watch on New Years Day or some other Happy Days and she made 10 an hour and she worked for him for years. It's entirely possible that the money didn't come from family at all.

Another potential theory: https://www.federalpay.org/paycheck-protection-program/illegal-civ-cinema-llc-gardena-ca (https://www.federalpay.org/paycheck-protection-program/illegal-civ-cinema-llc-gardena-ca). Although the amount is only $10,354, see Businesses Using Same Address: section.

It’s actually possible that this loan was taken out by his mother who, get this, is also called Michael Alfred.

I cannot figure out posting pictures but Mikey just posted Tickets will get more expensive closer to the premiere date and that 34 IC supporters have gotten their tickets. Come on Mikey 34 that is embarrassing ever local shop video I've been to at least doubles if not triples that number.
HAHA this is embarrassing

Also Mikey please move on from North Hollywood, make a new movie with better writing.

Counterpoint - move on from NH, and DONT make a new movie
Adding this in relation to the 750k deal with Showtime he includes in that Instagram post.

So in addition to embarrassing himself by calling out the execs that passed on the film, throwing shade at Jonah/Spike, his sale of the film was under half of the initial budget.
best case with iTunes sales, that's still roughly half of the budget.

So this whole shit is really just one of the most public mommymoney meltdowns in real time on…very cool mikey. His mom going by Michael is def hella sus, that’s some real weird “on paper…” type shit.
Dude sucks. When fools would rather be flow for life than be pro and get paid to ride for your brand, pick a new thing to leech buddy. Shit ain’t for everybody. Try waterpolo or whatever you actually do on the weekends

Mike has a lot of nerve, which just goes to show you that nerve plus trust fund does not equal jack shit if there is no talent as well. His cotton ponchos are dumb as shit. This is what taking "no publicity is bad publicity" to its logical conclusion looks like ... Like a Doritos sponsorship.

Lol @ Kevin White and them defending the smoking weed with kids
That rubbed me the wrong way as well. I'll admit that I definitely smoked weed with adults at the skatepark when I was underage, but it was never on camera or anything. It was kind of known that it wasn't ok to make that shit public. In hindsight, it was definitely reckless and sketchy for adults to be giving weed to teenagers at the skatepark, even though these spaces have always been sort of a free for all. With that being said, its weird to see him openly defending this behavior to the skateboarding community at large. In my opinion, he should have refrained from commenting on that part of the situation.
I mean it's been normalized in skating for quite a while. The young guys on Baker definitely partied with the rest and we're not crucifying them over it. Personally I'd never smoke out underage skaters but it's definitely been happening before.

tbh guys, his singing is probably the best piece of art I've seen/ heard from him. his voice isn't GREAT but it seems like he has an understanding of pitch and rhythm, and that's half the battle. if he absolutely quit doing everything else; shut down his company, stopped making movies, moved on from skating, grew a sense of self awareness, ate the biggest slice of humble pie ever, and then dedicated 10 years of his life day in and day out to become a musician he probably could.

How many of the 34 supporters are family? If he couldn't pay the riders, I doubt his family is getting any freebies.
20 family members

I know what you're getting at but it's not unfeasible that a guy with familial ties to the industry (his mom knows the former Paramount studio head) would have an agent. Wasting the agent's time with this nonsense would be a good troll though.

Seems like more coincidence than anything meaningful. I’m sure Showtime needs cheap content for their service, and $750K was just the most money his agents (seems like WME / Endeavor content represented the film) could get for the streaming rights. Also, not sure what the waterfall looks like, but with all of Mikey’s probable investors who financed the film, guessing he’s not keeping the whole pie.

ohhh right - ok i wasn't making the robert evans connection there because that was the gulf + western days 50 years ago.
Showtime def traffics in a lot of indie/cheap features for their service, so this was easy grist for their mill.

i'd say the goal of a movie like this is to sell it to a distributor at a major festival and that's where you can make money.
however, this movie never made it into any of the buyers' festivals and every distributor passed on it when they did showcase screenings, so they basically had to go "the self-published ebook on amazon" route and release it straight to apple tv.
budget-wise, the lions' share likely went to Vince Vaughn and Miranda Cosgrove. I highly doubt either of them would take points on this, but I wouldn't doubt if they got something. Prints & Adverstising usually is a hidden cost that can, for major movies, get pretty pricey (i forget how close to the shooting budget it gets).

P&A usually equals the production budget, which is why a lot of distributors claimed they weren’t the right marketing partners for the film, they have to acquire the film then spend that much again marketing the film.
It’s why a lot of films die on the shelf, it’s often easier to not commit the marketing spend and just dump it to VOD, instead of going deeper into a sunk cost. But sometimes a film that didnt turn out well will have a screen number commitment - say a wide release of 2K screens or something, but it will just last a weekend - all contractual.

as someone who recently started working in this industry, you are pretty dead on.
i've screened a lot of movies since working this job, most of them have bigger names than vince vaughn and miranda cosgrave and even that isn't good enough to pick up, let alone market for VOD or TVOD. sometimes even the agents representing the film demand a lot because of star power, but at the end of the day - it won't make money for the distributor. now there are some shitty films we pick up, ex. a boring thriller starring one of the leads from Game of Thrones? fuck it, people will watch it and they have. and it pays itself off.
but, skater-drama-comedy with minor supporting roles with vince vaughn and miranda cosgrove, with a director who is demanding A, B, C for his movie? nah... not worth the risk to lose money on something that won't pick up steam and ultimately will have a company lose money.
also wouldn't be surprising if mikey had this movie submitted for every film fest under the sun, and got rejected at each one.

Brent runs Embark on that street that the 207 Pitcrew shop was at. Keep going so he can make it as big as Pitcrew. The last location they had, Daan Van Der Linden came in and said “is this a bowling alley” because of how big it was. The 880 store.

Yeah that last spot was huge, I was thinking they could if built a park right there. But it was kinda in the middle of no where compared to the OG location. Embark seems to be picking up steam, I hope it does just as well as pitcrew.

Exactly. The Nine Club dudes were falling over themselves fluffing him up like he was a god when it seemed to be pretty clear to a lot of people that Mikey is a SUPER arrogant rich kid that saw skateboarding was cool and figured it might make him legit. He can't skate because he could never take a slam.

hope Tyshawn is ready to sand down and repaint over some graphics after he puts those two slices of wonder bread on the new company
Doubt Mids got the nod. Wouldn’t be surprised if Zach’s the only one with a board sponsor for a while.
Slightly off topic, but, I feel like Tyshawns new company gonna be the new Numbers. I doubt I’m the first one to say it. I hope it’s not. I hope the crown boards are just samples but man. Feels bland.
Hope it works out for Tyshawn, but maybe can have the same path as BA, but at a younger age.
tyshawn rips but when you look at some of his fits you can see that he might not have the best aesthetic judgment.. doesn't bode well for his ability to build a team or choose good graphics

I wasn’t gonna do this but I had no choice I had to give back my xtreme fisheye to Mikey because I left the group so I made this video so that I could sell dvd’s to raise money to buy a new one /:

ALL SALES GO TO LEGAL FEES
DVD page says the same thing

Buying this dvd should help cover legal fees for releasing the video too btw

Guess that contract wasn’t as serious, or existent, as that kid made it out to be. Regardless that’s cool he no longer has to associate himself with Mikey.

I'm genuinely surprised that people will associate with him. I am sure that there are a lot of people on the fringes of skating who are pretty good and desperate to get in somewhere, but you have to realize that being the third-stringers on Illegal Civ, at this point, is not good for your career and will not help you in the industry.

It literally just feels like he is using his cousins murder charge and jail stuff to create some sort of feel, but I also think he’s using it to like flex and scare some of the kids he took advantage of. Cuz how have we not really seen him push this so hard until now ? He’s trying to seem “hard” and authentic hood, instead of the privilege lil man he is. Gotta use his cousins street cred lmao. LA is full of these rich kids who have a cousin who bangs so then they claim a set when it’s convenient

Textbook “Nice Club.” How can you observe Mikey’s behavior and give him any benefit of the doubt?
Even all this current shit aside, remember when he went out of his way to call out Spike? That doesn’t make Crob and Jeron a little skeptical? They don’t at least wanna say “Hey that was weird when he did that. Spike’s our guy.”

He pretty much did the opposite. Said he appreciated what he did for him including helping him get on Adidas but didn’t want to be in the middle between Mikey and his friends so he left. They actually did kinda press him to talk about it, and when it seemed like he gave an answer Jeron kept going and asked him more about it which seemed to make him uncomfortable.

It'd be to much work to sand hundreds or thousands of boards. If anything They'd print over it. In the case of this graphic they'd probably have to print a blank white transfer first, so that the old graphic wouldn't come through.
I remember reading on the old skateboard.com forums, that the first run of PlanB boards had the INC simpsons style graphics under them
Anyway. If he really had thousands of boards laying around. Why was the online store empty before all this drama?

Maybe he bought them all by himself. With a different credit card. Or he used that "new" marketing technique, where they say sold out to imply some sort of scarcity.

The dude is actively trying to ruin multiple peoples

Mikey’s a kook who needs to figure some stuff out, his company is dead, people should stop piling on, no need to hit him when he’s already down for the count
skate careers with made up claims of racism and going as far as to call one a nazi with zero evidence to back it up. It goes a hell of a lot further than needing to “figure some stuff out”. He’s just a culture vulture of the highest order and deserves every bit of flack he’s getting.
he’s digging his own grave. No one is taking his attempts to ruin other peoples careers even the slightest bit seriously. There’s no need to keep going at this point
No way. That’s how we got Donald Trump as President. Believe these dudes when the tell you who they are.

Exactly. Not holding people accountable for their shitty behavior isn’t a deterrent, it just emboldens them.

To be fair, posting about it on slap isn’t holding anyone responsible.

he’s a complete joke, his company is dead, he’ll never be able to regain credibility in the skate world and his attempt at being a filmmaker was a total flop, what other ‘accountability’ do people want?
Don’t get me wrong I think he deserves all that has come to him, I just don’t see the point in piling on further
-
Imagine trying to absolutely destroy the one dude that never slandered your name whatsoever when he is the one that has most room to say anything at all. You sway a guy away from one of the sickest companies with a way better look and team than the delusional brainchild of a “board company” you wanted to start. You ruin his image a little with your childish meltdown on the internet and he goes to one of skateboardings biggest platforms right now and does nothing but give you endless props time and time again for everything when he could’ve just glossed over it and said it was all him. I don’t ever seriously wish hardship on people, but this could be the exception.

Has he just decided this random woman is Hannah tallman? Or does anyone know what person Kevin was defending in comments and Mikey's just had a brain fart and called them Hannah tallman

Aight I’m gonna play devils advocate.
Mikey is terribly troubled and the people that were close to him for extended periods know this. Gary, Kevin, even Nak, they’re not actively defending Mikey but they’re not talking ill about him either. Gary seemed like he really didn’t want to touch on Mikey, and I think that’s due to them knowing that Mikey is possibly ill or mentally unstable.
I hate Mikey too, I’ve disliked everything he’s put his face on, but to me this reminds me of a TK situation where the internet isn’t helping. Mikey needs close friends or family to call him out and suggest he logs off social media and work on his mental well being, you see people on this thread questioning his mental state too, but we’re all finding his demise to be entertainment and offering nothing positive to the situation. Remember what happened to TK and the guilty conscience Slap felt for possibly being an influence over TK’s demise.
As much as I find Mikey insufferable, I think it’s reached a point where I see a sick man in demise. Guy needs help before something tragic happens again.

I don’t think it has gone to the point of troubling yet. He’s trying to rally his flailing brand through a few IG stories. He hasn’t really gone into manic behavior or anything like that (in his online behavior or Jenkem interview) to give me pause.

Mikey Epstein really trying to pull every card in the victimhood deck on the former team, why would anyone try to get on IC now after seeing how he does business
“You left the team now give me your paychecks back” lmao this kid is deluded beyond helping, no wonder Nak doesn’t even bother trying to reason with him and just watches him implode from the sidelines
You can tell he’s a rich brat who’s been handed everything and never been held accountable for anything in his life, and he’s getting the rudest of awakenings that his parents money can’t buy his way out of this time

Nope. Dude did (and is doing) it to himself. He's not some beloved figure in skateboarding; he doesn't even skate. Slap laying off or giving him a pass won't pull him out of the hole he's dug for himself, nor make it deeper. You're giving him way too much sympathy and assuming that if he wasn't "sick" that he'd somehow be sensible, humble, and business savvy. He doesn't have mental issues, he's just a delusional narcissist and kook who's incapable of self-reflection and growth. Can't reform that.

Although I absolutely agree with @SLAPASONIC
I also fail to see how Mikey has some mental health issues. It seems he's just a narcissist kook and is mad he doesn't get everything handed to him.

Funny how Mikey acts like Jumpman owes him because he “put him in mid90s” when Spike and Jonah were the ones that chose to work with Mikey in the first place and he then talks shit on the nine club about them. Where’s the gratitude? Mid90s prob contributes to %75 of people hearing about IC. Mikey’s an entitled dork.

I think he actually does know who Hannah Tallman is. She’s on Baker and fairly established in the instagram game. She (justly) commented some “negative” things on at least one of Illegal Civ’s posts when it started getting all 700K-y. Guessing Kevin White came to her defense in some way and that rubbed Mikey the wrong way.
It does seem like the subtext with Kevin and Gary etc, is that Mikey is having some mental health struggles, it seems very plain to me his demeanor has shifted though I’m no expert on the matter.

I think it's wrong to assume he has mental health issues—maybe just hyper-narcissistic with poor impulse control.
But people who legitimately suffer from mental health disorders look at Mikey and say, "Damn, that fool's crazy."

she commented "IC wack af" on that kid Logan's instagram post of iPhone angles of his clips about Mikey trying to charge him 700k for his footy
so yeah i think this theory is probably correct but I haven't seen any evidence of Kevin publicly coming to her defense. maybe it was something he said in private to Mikey or whatever.
OR Kevin did stick up for Taylor Silverman (transphobic girl) and Mikey got Taylor and Hannah's names mixed up, but I also haven't seen any evidence of Kevin sticking up for Taylor either, so who knows

I can't do it either but it doesn't make someone else's good. Lot of guys are high tech but not pleasing to the eyes. Was only basing my comment on her doubleset flipper from last instagram post. If she's got em good out of a manual, so be it.

Just listened myself. Kevin White truly goes out of his way to not slander Mikey any further.
I thought Jeron and Chris did a pretty good job asking certain questions about why Kevin specifically left Illegal Civ—without making it overly gossipy.
Kevin White definitely deserves some appreciation, so I went on YouTube and tried to find some short footage—found this Venture minute. I really liked the 3 trick line at 28 seconds:

Aight I’m gonna play devils advocate.
Mikey is terribly troubled and the people that were close to him for extended periods know this. Gary, Kevin, even Nak, they’re not actively defending Mikey but they’re not talking ill about him either. Gary seemed like he really didn’t want to touch on Mikey, and I think that’s due to them knowing that Mikey is possibly ill or mentally unstable.
I hate Mikey too, I’ve disliked everything he’s put his face on, but to me this reminds me of a TK situation where the internet isn’t helping. Mikey needs close friends or family to call him out and suggest he logs off social media and work on his mental well being, you see people on this thread questioning his mental state too, but we’re all finding his demise to be entertainment and offering nothing positive to the situation. Remember what happened to TK and the guilty conscience Slap felt for possibly being an influence over TK’s demise.
As much as I find Mikey insufferable, I think it’s reached a point where I see a sick man in demise. Guy needs help before something tragic happens again.
See, I don’t think that it’s his close homies not wanting to dogpile their friend in a mental health crisis. I think Rhodes closest too him know best how petty and vindictive Mikey can really be. Gary was the first one pressed on it and he gave a total “no comment”. Nakel pretty much the same. Kevin had already left IC saw and had gotten a passive aggressive “don’t sweat it, we good” or whatever the fuck it was text from Mikey, so probably felt he could speak a little more freely.
I get the impression that in his own circle, Mikey probably talks up his industry connections to even more ludicrous proportions. Gary, Nak and Kevin were probably too afraid of the repercussions that speaking out against the boss man would have for them.
I mean, if he’s reacting this badly to Kevin White defending him you can see why the people in his circle aren’t exactly talking shit. In real life, when you’re actually friends with someone, you don’t really want to burn bridges, even if the person is a complete donkey.

Worried about him dragging their name through the instagram mud, maybe. Threw the industry? Nak, Gary at least are more embedded in the industry than Mikey Alfred will ever be. Gary has his sinecure position talking over clips and giving "damn nigga" of the week while Nak is a legit pro [vs an Illegal Civ or Revive pro].
Nobody is getting blackballed for leaving the house of Alfredo.

imagine kooking it so hard that you end up surrendering your brand to the police

To play devils advocate: he's was claiming his cousin to act hard but then for awhile he has been trying ot get him out and hoping to prove he's been rehabilitated. Which I can respect if he is.
I'm all for giving boards to kids to hopefully get them out of hard times Boards for Bros and Nations Skate Youth (please donate and help some of the most troubled Candian youth)
But to link with the Compton police is a tough look for ILLEGAL civ

Unprecedented levels of kookery. Honestly impressive how much that dude sucks. Tyshawn commenting “all I know is IC in dead last” is still some of the funniest shit to come out of all this.
Imagine looking/thinking/acting like mikey, that’s crazy.

Man seriously. How old is Mikey and how has he not learned any type of integrity? If his friends actually care for this clown they’d take his god damn phone away from him. He’s literally painting a target on himself to get hospitalized.
Edit: damn it I just saw the post of him giving out boards. Good on him for doing that. I wonder how much product illegal civ has on hand. This kook should continue to do that till it all runs out and fades away.

He's trying to cleanse his karma from all the harassment and abuse his Ex-team has inflicted on security over the making of Hell Weak. There's a good chance he put them up to it as he's the "director" right?

Yeah but it was with the Compton police department who undoubtedly have a terrible past-present connection with the black community.
Flexing his cousins murder charges and saying fuck the system and then working with cops makes no sense

For real I just voted to oust Villanueva for the 2nd time in 12 months. That's how intractable the Sheriff's gangs are. At least the LAPD has seen some reform, even if it isn't sweeping. Meanwhile the Sheriff's Dept has not only resisted but doubled down so hard that they have an out of control gang problem in their ranks. Situation is FUBAR

Yeah the reform candidate is probably also pretty fucking terrible. I voted for him just because he ran on a platform of reform. I think in the earlier election there were more candidates but I voted for Luna both times cuz that's what the lefty hodgepodge of websites I polled minutes before voting on a hundred or so super important issues said to do. Voting in California in general is kinda fucked up.

Oh for sure. The only reason I felt somewhat good about voting for Luna was that measure on the ballot for city council to remove the sheriff. The left can justify it however but fact of the matter is we got fucking played in 2016 with Villanueva running as a democrat and as Tyler the creator said, “ so that was a fucking lie.”
At least the city saw through Caruso , we haven’t had great options but I think everyone can agree we don’t need more billionaires who like to plaster their names on buildings having political power

me neither bud but, here we are responding back and forth 40 pages deep. maybe we need to be checked in to the same facility as mikey ??? . in all seriousness, my point is that this could’ve been another random l.a. homeless person being aggressive with them in traffic who they waved off, which mikey filmed the occurrence & now is using as clout to try to say “he beat her up!!!” who knows if kevin white made him pay him 10k for the footage… to me (just as a speculator)… one guy leaves & you ask him for 700k whether it’s sarcastically or not.. then another does & you give him 10k to use his footage that you filmed? makes zero sense. my whole point is that i think mikey is making literally everything up & the few who still tried to be respectful (nak on insta live, kevin on nine club) he has burnt bridges with so devastatingly, that there is absolutely nothing left to speculate anymore. that’s just me.

there’s no such thing as fun in skateboarding. You either eat the concrete and/or land because of how dedicated and mentally fucked up you are. Does that sound fun to you probably not. “I love fun” well i love pain. Get real

I honestly thought I was being a lil harsh in hindsight…but I just looked at his ig and fuck that!! It’s so terrible…he’s all over the place. It’s kinda comical. It’s just like the opposite of finesse every single trick. He seems like cool dude and all but goddamn!!
Just expected him to be way better by now I guess. Idk he skates with a lot of heavy hitters and I think it makes him look even worse. Like his clips just seem outta place in montages.
Having moderate skate ability and being the homie must be nice! I’ll probably just keep watching his videos in hope of better days. Or just for a good laugh.

He's better than Beatrice and she's pro. Dude is a little rusty but not the worst skater to finagle his way into the industry by any means.

I thought for a long time that Kevin White was a team manager that just skates with the homies who are pros and have a decent level at skating so he went pro for IC because it's a small brand. But I just realized recently that he was fully on adidas and a pro "pro". Clive Dixon has no shoe contract and most of the Foundation team has to work a real job to live.
More power to Kevin thought.

Was a young bespectacled black kid who did varial flips in NY that Quartersnacks and some companies were trying to promote and he had no business being on pro videos either. For whatever reason, some kids just get the push while 15 year olds are doing the actual hard tricks at the local.

I thought for a long time that Kevin White was a team manager that just skates with the homies who are pros and have a decent level at skating so he went pro for IC because it's a small brand. But I just realized recently that he was fully on adidas and a pro "pro". Clive Dixon has no shoe contract and most of the Foundation team has to work a real job to live.
More power to Kevin thought.
Jake Darwen rips, but he's actually the NB# staff photographer

Skateboarding, it's um....
As a kid I grew up with my family, we go hang out, go on family reunions. They're exciting to be around and we would do fun stuff, but then as I became a little bit older, I'm talking ten or eleven..... it became like OK, don't do stuff like that, but let's still go outside and let's have some good fun you know and skateboarding is exciting.

Yeah, I'm not listening to 45 minutes of Illegal Civ talk to find out if this is real or not.

Made it close to 4 minutes, I’ll wait for the gifted hater wrap up of this train wreck. Did enjoy the part where he said “fuck the skate community” and when asked why they didn’t like him anymore he just shrugged his shoulders like a moron. Clearly he has the answer but is too embarrassed to acknowledge reality.

No idea why I'm trying to listen through the whole thing but holy shit Mikey is incapable of conversation, it's painful. He does say the skate community can suck his dick in the beginning of the video though.
Even the channel that uploaded this video agrees lmao

With the nazi shit Mikey pulled in the last* episode plus the recent TyshawnxGH stuff I doubt he is gonna make a video, but I could be wrong.

MIKEY ALFRED 700K INTERVIEW
Here we go
Idabble is the nail in the coffin
-
I don't know how I was supposed to glean any information from that
interview incoherent rambling. I want my three and a half minutes back.
-
someone needs to tell him to do something different with his facial hair. He still lives with his mom right?
-
So….they hit a guy? What?
-
That "interview" was fucking awful.
-
Mikey found someone more fried than him to talk to.
-
Why cant he stay away from kids and try to sponsor some adults. Was exceptionally creepy when he had those middle schoolers show up to the Raw Talk interview at night at some random dude's house in LA, dude rolls around with an entourage of 15 year olds like Epstein. Hearing him keep mentioning "kids" makes my skin crawl.
-
this did not change my mind about him one bit
-
So….they hit a guy? What?
Back when all the shit started hitting the fan and Mikey was trying to turn the narrative against these kids, he kept bringing up footage he has of one of them punching someone, I think.
-
So they acted up in the streets (not unlike Nak or Robert neal did in previous IC vids) and mikey didnt like that?
But then he "kept it in the edit"?
And then told them he would take that part out if they kept skating?
Because continuing to skate would show mikey that they understood it was wrong?
My brain is straight up not in shape enough for these mental gymnastics, im sorry, call me dumb w/e, theres not way ill ever be able to understand this.

-

So hypocritical and dumb considering the IC edit Mikey himself put out showing them antagonize security guards and an old woman walking around minding her own business. Mikey wants to put the pressure on these kids as if they're trying out for an NFL team on Hard Knocks, but treats them like dogshit and rewards them with hamburgers as well as legal threats. Mikey seems like the type of dude to post about how Virgil Abloh got him inspired to skate and how impactful his LV collection was to Doritos

I like how he makes generalizations about men when he surrounds himself with children.
wtf did he even mean by that line?
Most PEOPLE these days can't handle negative commentary, gender aside. He's clearly trying as hard as he can to stay on the favorable side of social politics by citing his "black owned business" and making general disparaging remarks about "men", since hating on men is currently fashionable/acceptable to some degree.

MIKEY ALFRED 700K INTERVIEW
Here we go
why does idabble suck? it should be cool, but its def not.
Yo but the idabble guy said that he's one of the most lucid people he knows, so I guess we were wrong
Bro, you're like the most lucid guy i know bro. There's no way you're just bullying these kids bro, you're just too lucid to do that man.
WHO THE FUCK HAS A "MOST LUCID" PERSON THEY KNOW OFF THE TOP OF THEIR HEAD!?!?
That is one of the biggest loads of hollywood influencer bullshitspeak i've ever heard.
We are living in a nightmare we can't bribe our way out of
Listen to Jordan Maxham's music. That dude clearly don't know what lucid means.

I gotta say that Mikey’s push for Kook of the year is all time. The last month alone he’s dropped what, two or three terrible interviews along with countless terrible IG takes. It’s not even close this year, give this man his cool ranch crown.
Mickey Alfredo marketing strategies for 4th quarter 2022:
Steal footage from 15 year olds and hold it ransom for 6 figures
Groom teenage boys with weed and hamburgers instead of paying them to ride for your company
Call Jewish kids Nazis
Call former riders who you sponsored white supremacists for quitting your company
Claim the kids you stole from are modern day colonialists
Threaten your filmer with a lawsuit for trying to leave
Play the "support black business" card for sympathy
Play the "i met Virgil / Chappelle / Lil Wayne" card for clout
Brag about your scumbucket cousin who murdered two people in cold blood
Play the "criminal justice reformer" card by claiming to want to get him out early
Blame your riders for not pushing the brand and tell everyone their boards are selling like dogshit
Claim that youre sanding down their graphics to paint over them
Give away boards that you didnt sand graphics off of through the LAPD in compton (after bragging your homicidal cousin)
Shit on Kwhite and call him a woman beater after he jumps through hoops to say nothing bad about you
Continue hanging out with young kids you pick up from skateparks
Do random podcasts making an absolute fool of yourself
Hold a video premier where noone from the skate industry shows up, so you sing songs and do magic tricks
Brag publicly about blackmailing teenagers to ride for IC by holding compromising footage over their heads
Say "fuck the skate community" while trying to salvage an imploded Braille-tier company
Never apologize or develop self-awareness
He actually needs to be institutionalized, KOTY run unmatched this year.

i'm convinced that Maxham has little to no idea what he's doing behind a camera. Would be helpful if he had a solid film crew behind him doing the filming and editing (and spellchecking) but him posting an "interview" like this and slapping iDabble's name on it is a really poor look for iDabble. I want to support shit like iDabble because i back a chunk of the dudes they're affiliated with, but they gotta step it up from some thing like this. Hell they can use the money they're making from iDabble to send Maxham to a community college filmmaking and/or journalism class so we don't have to see trainwrecks like this so called "interview"
-
100% idabble will not do anything again with IC. Maxham didn't remove the video cause "it didn't help people see Mikey in a good light". He removed it because it was a garbage ass interview that didn't make any sense and it made idabble/Jordan look moronic.

If we equated Mikey’s KOTY 2022 push to a video part, it would be roughly 2 hours and 53 minutes long, and every trick would be an ender. I did the math, no need to check me on it.

dont get me wrong, i'm still screamin fuck mikey alfred's goofy ass but you have to agree that if you were putting out a video, in any capacity, you probably wouldnt wanna put this clip in your vid or *knock on wood* deal with any legal ramifications if things went south

not only that, but he has to have an actual artist come in after the fact and "clean up" his drawing. so what you see here isnt even really mikey drawing it ;D he shows it on his little doritos thing the REAL artist!

Weird people are putting Jonah Hill and Mikey in the same camp. Jonah Hill is way cooler than Mikey Alfred. I've always thought Mikey was the worst, but when that interview came out talking shit on Spike Jones, that was the final straw. Hopefully he gets blacklisted from Hollywood.
They so alike that these should get together.

In the youtube description he mentions going to illegalciv.xyz (Bozos site doesn't even load) to reserve a spot to watch hell weak.
I guess he is going the same route as North Hollywood since no one wants to actually go see his shitty movies/videos so he sells tickets to live stream them. Judging by the turnout at the first premiere his plans to show it in other cities are definitely off the table and when less than 100 ppl reserve a spot to stream this crap hopefully Mikey will see the writing on the wall

Who is Ralo? The end track is "Love Love Love" by Pugh Rogefelt. As famously sampled by DJ Shadow on "Mutual Slump" - as much of a fuckboy Mikey is, these are two good tracks.

You can wash them and season them again, but the more the seasoning, the more the extra flavor and protection from rust, etc.

I remember reading somewhere that the whole “don’t use soap” thing comes from a time decades back where soap had an additive that was bad for the seasoning/cast iron. If your pan is seasoned properly, a little bit of soap here and there won’t cause any problems.

Is there rust on it? If no, you should’ve ok to cook on it and see. Just try something small or simple on it.
And I seriously cannot stress this enough: it’s ok to use soap on cast iron. If you seasoned it properly, don’t let it soak in the water, and then use heat to dry it off and run in a little oil after it’s dry and while it’s still hot, it will be fine. If you’re just wiping out a cast iron with a paper towel, it’s just gross and the food particles and old oil will go rancid.

I use mine on a glass top stove and it works fine. Just probably takes longer for the pan to heat up.
Like anything on a glass top stove just be careful not to slide it around to scrape up the glass.
do you guys recommend a steel scrubber? looks medieval to me
I have a natural firm bristled brush (this exact one https://www.redecker.de/en/home-and-yard/kitchen-brushes/pot-brush-322612) that works really good for scrubbing off stubborn food. Any small pieces that don't come off with that I use nature's scrubber. My fingernails. Works great.

I got a cast iron skillet to use in my camper van setup. I was seasoning it in my house on a glass ceramic cooktop and it shattered out of nowhere. Sounded like a gunshot, scared the shit out of me, thankfully no one was hurt.
We have another cast iron pan that we use on the same cooktop all the time though so idk what the deal is.

You were seasoning it *on* the cooktop? Not inside the oven?
I've always heard it's fine to use on glass top, just don't drop it hard or drag it around on the surface
Ironically this thread made me dig out and re-season my Lodge pan so thanks for that, everyone. It's going pretty good though I tried to make eggs last night and they stuck to the pan, from what I've gathered I likely haven't cooked enough in it yet even though I seasoned properly. I also think I need to switch to an oil with a higher smoke point for a big possibly... I seasoned with Canola but have just been using Olive Oil to cook with since that's all I have and what I'd normally use, seen avocado oil is highly recommended

I've started cooking with avocado oil due to the high smoke point, and I have to say that a tangential benefit is that my pans almost always clean up easier. Got a nice, cooked-on layer of fatty polymers and the eggs just slide right off.

Best method I've found for cleaning a cast iron is to use steam - heat the cast iron up on the stove and then crank your hot water, put pan under water and brush with a long handled (! important so you don't burn yourself !) scrubber. Also, I use mine almost every day on a glass top stove with no issues.

Thrift stores are awesome for these. Garage sales too.
I’ve got a small Wagner, a mid size “contemporary” Lodge & a large vintage Lodge.
They all work real nice.
I clean with soap & all, but the seasoning is so baked in, it doesn’t phase ‘em.
Daily cookers, each.
If you’re not on board already, you gotta get one.

yes, maybe that was just due to my ignorance. I was told you could just cook bacon fat on a lower heat, wipe once it started smoking a bit, then repeat.

I'm not watching that new mikey video, but if I did, I'd imagine that it would make me feel similar to seeing my shitty housemate's stack of rusty cast iron pans. This bitch has one in every size, and even two of the same 9 incher. They're all sitting under one of our shelves because she left them rusty as hell in various places and the rest of us finally got sick of seeing them and moved them.
So yeah moral of the story is don't be like mikey or my housemate. Treat your cast irons well.

1x cured chorizo (in whole and then cut up at the end), potatoes, carrot, brown onion, canned chickpeas or butter beans, paprika, chilli flakes, tomato paste, chicken stock. Stir through some spinach at the end. Delicious
