Grosso on FA
-
Solid episode. It includes all the standard Grossoisms but it's cool to get more in depth discussion about a lot of it. Drugs certainly made him into a real piece of shit, so it's comforting to know that he's made it most of the way back to being a decent human being. I hope he finds some way to enjoy life other than skateboarding so he doesn't relapse in the long run, or worse.

the potent stench of bullshit throughout...
-
People shine a light on their use of drugs in an attempt to get somewhere in the skate-sphere or use their addiction history as social media currency. It's worked for grosso, I think, I mean he's on the show and heres the thread. Not saying Grosso doesn't rip cause he does but so do a lot of 80s pros. Grosso has set himself apart and has a decent brand cultivated. (yet another nine club I got maybe 2 minutes into) Edit -anyway my larger point is that PROHIBITION HAS CREATED THIS BULLSHIT 'drugs are cool' CULTURE. Drugs aren't cool, they don't make you cool. Drugs are not 'naughty' -there just what they are. And you should have the legal right to consume what you want to- no big D. Human rights!!
-
found that pretty boring tbh.
-
Jeff has stated in other interviews that drugs aren't cool and neither is glamming them up,but if someone asks he will tell,obviously.I'm sure his usage gave him a sort of image on par with his skateboarding,but really he is pretty vocal and his opinions on skating are widely known as is his appreciation (love letters). That sort of sets him apart from the other 80s guys.

um yah if you watch ONE of his interviews it would appear that way but if you look at a lot of his shit in succession you'll notice he's been on the tit with it. Like I say it's worked. But he pounded away at it and has def rammed it down throats, why pretend he hasn't? It wasn't loveletters that 'set him apart' jeff was vocal about his junkie shit in the 90s and remained relevant as opposed to the other 80s dudes cause lucero sponsored him. Grosso had no way to make a living and couldn't 'move on' like the other 80s dudes. So now we're stuck with him.

^what is this place, groaner town?

Lover letters helped in the last decade but thats not what I meant that set him apart. I agree with you,it was his shit he talked in the 90s and on(being vocal). We're going to be stuck with a lot of 90s and early 2000s pros so get ready,the gofundme shit isn't over yet!
-
That whole era of skateboarding sounds like an utterly dog shit experience. Bunch of insecure secret clubhouse gatekeepers that frankly act more jock-ish than the people they're "rebelling" against. Guess you had to be there
-
San Jose Ramp club history was cool
Went there back in 96'...was always packed, that BMX champ Ryan Nyquist was always there.
-
Episode ended abruptly...felt like he said some shit about Billy Marks and to edit it out with a standard outro would have dragged the episode longer than it had already dragged and would have looked weird so it just ended
I dunno
Just the feeling i got from it
-
what he said about duane was tough to hear. i never really gave it much thought but duane's been sober before, been quasi together and playing shows.
i kinda figured he'd touch back down but maybe his mind is gone for good?
or maybe grosso's wrong.
either way it was kinda scary.
-
Grosso is the man. Had some of the best graphics ever as well.
A prime example for me to absolutely stay sober for as long as I can... He has always been very outspoken about his druguse and always was honest about it. That it sucked and that it ruins lives...
I love the grumpy old dude...
-
Grosso is an excellent story teller
-
nice ramblin from the ramblin ole man
thoroughly enjoyed that episode
-
real great.
-
well he sure loved to party and beeing stone as fuck
-
Surprised he didn't mention his son, part of why i like his IG so much is seeing his posts about how proud he is of the goo.
-
Holy shit.. Chris Roberts saying mmm-hmmm after everything thing these guys saying is really starting to annoy the fuck out of me. Make him stop!

It's called active listening, and I honestly bet it keep the guests talking. If you were in a room with them ranting for an hour and no one said a thing, I am sure it would have an effect on you.

Not quite.. he doesn't have to say mmm-hmm all the time to show that he's actively listening. He can nod and say yeah every now and again.
-
I'm also getting tired of the interview format.. I'd like to hear more opinions from their guests about the state of skateboarding today.
-

Right, exactly what I thought. This episode was great, imo, but I thought we'd get a solid 15-20 minute ramble about teaching his son to skate given how thoughtful his IG posts about it are.
-
Seems like he uses all his interviews for personal therapy haha. I fuck with Grosso.
-
Love Grosso.
Honored and stoked that a copy of my video ended up on the bookshelf. I certainly wasn't expecting it.
-
This is good, 15 minutes in and its not just the same ole shit.
Interesting point on how shoe companies would give out to board brands rather than individuals at first

I thought that as well, and maybe I missed something, but when Chris asked for details on the arrangement, something like "would a box show up and you'd all get to choose?", Grosso went on to explain how he was essentially being flowed directly by a Vans.
-
what was his blue drink? kool aid?
-
I always thought he was just bitter and jaded until I met him at an AH demo at my local and he gave my son mad respect for being a mini ripper and knowing who he was.
Out of the entire squad his fat ass was the first out of the van, into the park and into the bowl.
He took to the biggest shit without a sweat and kicked it with the kids for ages after.
Mad respect Jeff, and that episode was fucking great.
-
I tried. Can't do Grosso - old 80's vert pros who are full of themselves are obnoxious. 'I was the best. Nobody could fuck with me. I partied the hardest with the coolest people.'... ok buddy. At least he makes fun of himself here and there. Let us remember this is the guy who brought skateboarding the roast beef air, which pretty much speaks for itself.

i agree the format is stale. but be careful what you wish for. if there's anything i'm less interested than 1st board stories, it's the lukewarm conversations about the pros and cons of instagram again.

I hear you. It's just a lot of the guests they've had on are guys that are followed closely so you hear stories you've already heard before. Or different perspectives about the same time/place you've heard from other people.
I think also more filmers and photographers would be cool. I'd pay to watch an hour long show with Ryan Garshell about what goes on in his present life.
I guess what I'm looking for is more moving conversation.
They barely grazed a good opportunity in this episode when Grosso brought up the unwritten rules of skateboarding.. perfect opportunity to go into that in depth so future generations can understand. That kind of information helps preserve the culture. But it just comes back to the guy asking the questions. Roberts sounds like he follows a template and looks for the same cues in every interview and it makes for a boring conversation unless the guest is someone like Jason dill.

Could have just told us Duane is about to be announced to quasi in their new video.
Grosso is a veteran, he's like gall, nothing can kill them and they have endless amounts of stories.
He talks about drugs like someone who has fully come to terms with his addiction, he knows how bad it is for him and knows how close he is to death anytime he touches it. Very relatable unfortunately.
Favourite comment on youtube "he looks younger then bam"

It's actually faygo grosso is a juggalo but is very private about it respect to Nine Club for being respectful bout it.
-
It’s funny that the one person he was worried about in the Anti-Hero team vote was TNT.
-
I didn't really know anything about draw so I didn't start skating till 97 almost 98. I guess it's kind of cool I enjoyed the interview but I'm not going to pretend to just being all of these dudes because they were once pro.
I loved the episode though. Not to be morbid but going off these stories and how they were behaving it's not surprising that one of them killed someone out of anger. Sounds like it could have been any of them on a wild night

So embarrassing, a disgusting old man talking like an ignorant teen girl, saying "fucking" every 3 words trying to seem tough, getting worked up and pointlessly ranting like an idiot and about how and what people should do on a skateboard.
-
I can't believe that they didn't ask him about his back/neck/recent health issues.
-
I could listen to Grosso talk all day. He’s got a plethora of skateboarding history stored away in his brain and is incredibly knowledgeable on the severity of drug abuse and addiction.
Y’all just don’t know gold when you see it.
-
i really enjoyed this one. maybe my favorite episode yet.

That's like 90% of what Grosso's show is about. Them spending more time to discuss it would have just been redundant, as interesting of a subject I think it is.
-
that last 15 or so minutes was great. From the Olympics, up to til the end. Not too many in skateboarding who are open, honest, says what they think and feel, but also admit they may be fucking wrong.
-

Grosso told me at Tampa Pro one year that he can't have a single beer because he'll wake up naked in a ditch three days later with no memory of how he got there.
I believe him.

"Unlike Southern California in the 1980’s, which was the epicenter of the skateboarding movement and the industry, Sacramento was an entirely different, gnarlier beast. Bred from mostly lower to middle class families, and fueled by Budweiser and bands like Bl’ast, Fang and Tales Of Terror, Sacto skaters couldn’t give a shit less about the latest pastel ‘street wear’ or gimmicky doo-dad fads being foisted on skate rats in the 80’s. For guys like Randy Katen, Rick Winsor, Snaggle, Troy Clower, Troy Miller, Ronnie Marshall, brothers Randy and Curtis Stauffer, Ross Goodman, and Sam Cunningham (to name a few), skating was all about hanging out, ripping it up and living the life, day-in and day-out"
Cool article on the Sacto scene: http://www.midtownmonthly.net/life/sacto-street-damage/

How are you guys posting instagram videos? Here is one of the contest on acid where he mentions the stickers on the deck.

This is the first Nine Club i've listened all the way through. Definitely worth the 2+ hours.
-
Probably one of my favorite ones. Grosso rules.
-
he looked a lot taller in the 80s
-
He's constantly winding up to make some profound statement that never materialises. Conversational cul de sacs. Over hamming the passion to create the illusion of...passion. With a few straight up lies thrown in for dramatic effect.

I remember this from old the Vision (?) vert contest videos I used to watch when I first started skating in 1988. Little did I know he was on shrooms. Or had any idea of the shit they were doing. I thought they just skated all day every day.
I loved this episode. Grosso's awesome but I guess I am a part of his old man army.
-
Entertaining episode overall, his party stories were a little random sometimes, it’s crazy he is still around after not accomplishing much in skateboarding, but I guess he never really stopped skating which is what he was trying to get across maybe. Or maybe it was the vans hook up. He has great style in a bowl though.
Funny fan boy getting on antihero story. too much unveiling of the 18 curtain lately - talking on behalf of Julian and another tnt story
I liked what he said about a minute roll to the corner store can really change your perspective.
He seems like he doesn’t think very highly of women.
-

I think he's still a little burnt from his divorce,but can see what you're saying in reference to his stories. The nair shampoo story was brutal! Haha
-
I scanned through it to see if there were any stories I might be interested in - caught the one about Jessica from Arizona, the girl Gator murdered. I remember visiting Tucson several years ago and Starr skates had shop boards with a Gator themed graphic - some of the elder locals who were around back in the day and knew Jessica were really bummed the shop would do that graphic... rightly so.

Does he ever paint his nails black other than this? Have seen some loveletters but never noticed.
he needed a reason to put his punkpaint on, making a statement!
Grosso rules, I love skateboardings weirdos.

I really liked that, but I already knew I would.
Don't agree with everything he says but we defs need characters like him

I don't think he made any overstatement here. Pretty adept observation.

Pretty surprised that Nike was having talks with him ... oh wait, this was probably when Nike was spewing the whole, "we only sponsor underground rippers/ only sell to core skateshops" propaganda that so many of us ate up.
-
i watched it, took me a bit. it was entertaining enough as an episode but party because of the pretty high cringe factor. reminded me a bit of markovich episode. he kind of eluded to it a bit himself but the episode made me feel more bad for him than anything else. only a few more years pushing, then what?
also really surprised people aren't tripping out more about the nair incident. that's a pretty savage, awful thing to do to a person in the first place but then to be joking about it in that way at his age is honestly pretty shocking.

Yea,I'm sure theres more fucked up situations too. My coworker is an ex tweeker and has all sorts of fucked stories,some he rather not tell even though most are like episodes of Breaking Bad. People do dumb shit on a drug.
-
My excitement for this episode went sour pretty quick. Grosso seems depressed and honestly thought he was on some shit.
It reminded me of watching a Charlie Murphy stand up few years back.
The first half he was all coked up and full of goodtimes. Once it started wearing off as the show went on he slides into depressive self loathing and fishing for compliments.
-
I used to think like the other two nay-sayers in here, but watching loveletters helped me understand Grosso and why he is upset.
There really needs to be a podcast that isn't worried about "the kids" and "sponsors" that could really delve into people's seedier side. Hosts that don't stop their guests when they are mid-story, or hide their beers from the camera shot. There were lots of stories not told, he held back. Plus, the hosts are all nerds, if you took skating away from them they'd be frail shells of humans. Grosso (at least) has interesting stories/views, the NineClub needs more sucker ass guests like Nyjah and Erik Bragg Episode 2, while we need a revolutionary skate-podcast that can accurately captivate the real tales of Grosso, Dill, Olson, etc...
I wanna hear where Wenning copped, the details of the best and worst nights he's ever had with drugs, I wanna know what the cells that Antwuan lived in looked like, I wanna hear why Josh Swindell smoked that dude. We ain't never gonna get that if it's produced by Vans or Vanilla Roger, and I don't give a fuck about sound quality or HD cameras. Shetler interviewed MJ over skype and he still blew it, but I still listened! It's high time someone brought the heat from the streets.

Haha! Yeah - weak pussys like Chris Roberts ruining the interviews for everyone! Those poor repressed professional skateboarders. They just wanna be real and tell it how it is but Chris wont let em!

Listen to The Bunt. They've had Wenning describe Joe Arpao's "Tent City" in detail, Chima openly calling out Chase Webb and Nyjah for being potential rapists and yesterday James Hardy talked about how much of a piece of shit Heath Kirchart was to him.

bunt is the rawest by far, heath callout was momentus

I bet that was a tough episode to edit

I will take your suggestion! I think you're the dude who told me to listen to loveletters! I do listen a little bit to the bunt, they do a sorta good job with the edge but I'm racist against Canadians. They're culture vultures. All I hear is Pepsi's on the mic trying to sound like Cokes. Its pathetic and their fraudulence comes out almost as poorly as Kelly's while Grosso is talking about cocaine.
I know a lot of you guys are lace curtain motherfuckers whose parents still send them Birthday money but just imagine i'm not talking to you because you could never feel what im saying. I need a Taxstone-style skate podcast.

I wanna hear where Wenning copped, the details of the best and worst nights he's ever had with drugs, I wanna know what the cells that Antwuan lived in looked like, I wanna hear why Josh Swindell smoked that dude. We ain't never gonna get that if it's produced by Vans or Vanilla Roger, and I don't give a fuck about sound quality or HD cameras. Shetler interviewed MJ over skype and he still blew it, but I still listened! It's high time someone brought the heat from the streets.
Listen to The Bunt. They've had Wenning describe Joe Arpao's "Tent City" in detail, Chima openly calling out Chase Webb and Nyjah for being potential rapists and yesterday James Hardy talked about how much of a piece of shit Heath Kirchart was to him.
I will take your suggestion! I think you're the dude who told me to listen to loveletters! I do listen a little bit to the bunt, they do a sorta good job with the edge but I'm racist against Canadians. They're culture vultures. All I hear is Pepsi's on the mic trying to sound like Cokes. Its pathetic and their fraudulence comes out almost as poorly as Kelly's while Grosso is talking about cocaine.
I know a lot of you guys are lace curtain motherfuckers whose parents still send them Birthday money but just imagine i'm not talking to you because you could never feel what im saying. I need a Taxstone-style skate podcast.
Sounds like what you really want is to smoke some crack with an old pro skater and then talk about how cool smoking crack was. If you want an all negative shit talk podcast, why don't you try and start one and see how successful you are? It must be so hard having to listen to these absolutely shit attempts at interviews when you're such an advanced intellectual who needs to know what the shit stains on Grosso's underwear looked like after a drug binge. I'm sure there's a podcast out there for complete fuck ups who wanna hear other people talk about being complete fuck ups - don't lose hope.
I don't care for Grosso at all, but in general, I think the Nine Club is killing it - and the amount of people watching it kinda shows that they don't need to be talking about the length of Antwuan's foreskin to get views. Keep those fingers crossed though man, I'm sure Chris and Rog scour the boards looking for your expert advice. ;D

I used to think like the other two nay-sayers in here, but watching loveletters helped me understand Grosso and why he is upset.
There really needs to be a podcast that isn't worried about "the kids" and "sponsors" that could really delve into people's seedier side. Hosts that don't stop their guests when they are mid-story, or hide their beers from the camera shot. There were lots of stories not told, he held back.

Would you help me start a shit talk podcast? I don't work in that field, i'd love to try it. You worked really hard right there little guy. why do you care so much about how I feel? Why can't I talk bad about your heroes when you clearly have no problem fulfilling your lifelong agenda against grosso?
-
and secondly you should learn to appreciate the darkness so the light is much more vivid.
Life is not good, motherfuckers are getting fucked over, used, and abused, and you wanna talk about a switch-flip-switch manny for the 93rd episode? Get the fuck outta here. I never smoked crack.

In the time it took you to think and write all that, you could have probably started your own podcast.
Let me know when you do start it, I wanna hear those stories too.

Watson that's fucking hilarious. I would dish you out a gnar if I could.

Remember the Ty Evans episode when they talked about the Olympics and how excited they were about it? Ty even asked Roger if he would go film it and Roger went: "Sure!" Now they listen to Grosso's rant and just nod... Sometimes I wish there was more of a debate.

loved this episode, one of the best ones. definitely did end pretty abruptly though as someone else already pointed out. also, do any of you guys follow duane these days on insta? i know he went berserk on there a little while back but, if you look at his recent posts he seems to be doing a lot better? his recent posts are all super positive and are actually somewhat comprehensible. he's out riding his bike everyday and posting videos of himself bombing a hill? maybe he's doing better than said to be, or maybe him and grosso just got into some big fight and now grosso is just bad mouthing him or actually doesn't know he's doing better? he does have a new insta maybe grosso hasn't seen it or talked to him in a while?

Agenda against Grosso? Nah, just not too interested in his particular life story, that's all.
I'm interested in skating, not fuck ups glorifying fucking up. I agree that no holds barred interviews are generally more interesting, but I'm not sure why you care at all about where Wenning bought drugs... like, who the fuck cares about that info? And hey, if you think it's a good idea asking a convicted murderer what it was like killing the person they killed, maybe you should try. I'm sure Swindell is just dying to talk about how he committed a hate crime. ;D

Duane stopped answering Grosso's calls. Duane kept on ranting. Lately yea,DP has been seeming normal,but he a schizophrenic that sometimes refuses to take his meds,hence all the shit talking and PoTus talk occasionally.

I love the show but that's my biggest qualm with it. They're never willing to challenge a guest's perspective. I can assume why to a certain extent (wouldn't want people hesitant to be guests in fear of being called out, could ruin the tone/pace of the show, etc.).
But come on... at some point, at least play devil's advocate and throw in a few retorts.
From watching the different shows so far (albeit 7 mins collectively) I'd say these dudes don't have the social or intellectual capacity to engage with guests the way you're describing (also some moral capacity lackage shown by they're obvious kow towing to certain industry interests) I think they're losing the plot generally with this series. Edit this is only a critique of the show, I don't think there bad dudes cause I don't know them. I think the best guy is the one who's not Kelly hart or the rides for chocolate guy. Maybe just have him and someone else whos not the other two.

So, you've watched 7 total minutes of a show that is 85 episodes deep - most over 2 hours in length - and you feel you've got a relevant opinion on the content? Sounds legit.

You be the judge. (edit to be more honest ive watched prolly 20 some mins of the series and to be fair the problem with the show is that you can surmise every problem with the show inside of watching 7 minutes of it)

you guys are over thinking this show. it's background noise in traffic and if you want the steve olson show and didn't enjoy it then... well good for you

I like the episode OK but Grosso's kind of the Uncle Rico of hard drug users.
-
It was pretty real to hear his stories go from young innocence to gnarly partying to just sad.
Grosso is a blowhard but a necessary one.
