Kelly, I know you’re reading this. Roberts is an asshole to you and clearly doesn’t give a fuck about your opinions. Every time you speak, Roberts has already dismissed whatever you’re going to say before you say it. You can see it on his face and hear it in his voice. Maybe you’ve found a way to justify it. Maybe it’s a gimmick for the show. Regardless, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

I hope dude treats you much better off camera. We all deserve better friends than that.

I noticed that Crob only picks on Kelly when certain people are around. Catching up on the episodes now, and Im on the one with &&, & was thrown off by Roberts being normal to him

Excited for the Karl Watson ep. Kinda surprised he actually went on

[theloniousmonk]

I don’t know why but I hope they touch on the praxis footwear

Interesting, I haven't noticed that. I still don't like it. Kelly has a wealth of skateboarding knowledge, seems to be all positive vibes, has a big hand in booking guests so I know he pulls his weight, and honestly was just as productive and talented on a skateboard as anyone else in the room. But every time he speaks, Roberts makes an assy face. At least Jeron gives him the time of day.

[Marv]

Jovantae comes across as a complete asshole in the Karl episode.

[roba]

oh boy wait til you hear what lizard king has to say about him

[Fongstarr.]

Karl denying $10k a month for 4 years to do an Ipath like spinoff through Osiris is insane. I don’t blame the guy cause it’s Osiris…but still.

I'll take you up on that and trade you for a Miller's Roast Beef, my treat.

Always a big Karl fan too, best smile in the bizzzzz.

Did Karl kinda shit on the bunt or am I imagining things.

Did Karl kinda shit on the bunt or am I imagining things.

I was about to say...seems a little disrespectful considering they had him on years ago. "without you we would have no podcasts that are cool"

[Uncle Flea]

'Karl is def someone i wanna meet someday. He reminds me of my little brothers. Makes me wonder if his mom is like my mom.

i know it sounds funny but its triggering all memories. Its just the way he speaks and carries himself. I cannot help but look back and weigh it.

when I was like 16 skating around pier 7 I got to meet him. He was genuinely nice to me and my friends even though we were probably annoying and obviously not from there. I never forgot that. He’s a special dude.

Yeah that's what I thought

[Gab]

I’ve told this story here before, but my first time skating in SF I met Karl. I was probably only 10 or 11 and the first spot my mom took me and my brother to was pier 7. I was trying to ollie up the small part for a good 20 mins and when I finally made it and was preparing to roll of the bigger part I was snatched of my board and spun around in a big circle. “Hell yeah lil homie!” I heard from above. “You got that!” I look up and it’s Karl with a big smile on his face. So stoked for everyone at any level. I will always remember that.

It was a heavy session: Karl, Henry Sanchez, Pat Washington, Fabrizio Santos, and I wanna say a young Jack Curtain were there. Sanch yelled at me for getting in his way. I’ll remember that forever too.

My mom bought me a pair of AWS wheels and my brother Spitfires from a sketchy looking dude who had an Indy logo tattoo that was colored outside the lines. I really wanted the Dan Pageau world deck he had but my mom didn’t want to give him more than $20 lol

25 minutes left and I didn’t hear anything… maybe I missed it?

yeah he just needs a “boss bitch” and he’s all good. anybody have those screen shots still? 

in all seriousness i have grown to like him more over the years due to the things you mentioned. he doesn’t trail off the way crob does and he actually asks interesting questions when it does start to shift away from the focus point. i’m all for it going off topic at times the way any podcast does as they all warm up to each other, it doesn’t always have to be crob “sarcastically”  talking himself up though. the sw flip manny thing was fine as a staple joke of the show with the tablets playing and all that but man, he’s really gotten carried away with it. kelly is just an oc bro deep down & makes himself a target sometimes almost purposefully seemingly.

one thing kelly does that i have noticed more recently that almost bothers me even more than crob’s narcissistic sarcasm is he will one up people in a very nonchalant, almost “slide” kind of way. for instance, in this episode karl is talking about how he was struggling a bit to do the 360 flip over the gap in it’s official, whilst thanking kelly & complimenting him on how well he does giving trick tips. kelly is just like “yeah that was fun man, i think that’s the day i nollie tre’d it.” i really can’t stand when people do that. it’s funny too because he never does it to chris when he brings up the sw flip manny even though kelly’s trick is way crazier, fear of getting eldy’d i assume.

Was going to tell a story about how Karl Watson was incredibly cool to me and my friends at pier 7, but it seems many have already told the exact same story - and that's awesome. Love Karl.

FWIW I didn't get the vibe he was shitting on the Bunt. I think he was just giving it up for the people he was sharing the room with.

It the way he talks. He sounds like my brother who lived in California for a while.

I checked some other interviews.

and just like that I have decided to buy a maxallure board. Not my thing but hey

[CarcassToss]

I've had a Max Allure deck that I liked and it looked a little different. Took some pics and DM'ed Karl. Turns out it was a run they did during Covid that was supposed to be team only. He got my address and sent me 3 more for free. Haven't found one of them since, but can only imagine he hooks up kids and his local community just as much.

yeah guarantee $120k/yr salary for 4 years...sounds pretty good and I don't think the industry would have kooked him for doing it back then.  And he was on Satori back then which was successfully selling shirts at whole foods

I love I-path as much as the the next person but the brand really didnt seem like a "core" company to me at the time
