This weeks episode on the china banks and Emerica's This is great all the way through, but most important is this quote from Jason. shit had me dying
Jon Dickson is the Wolverine of skating, like his overrall vibe and shit... he dresses like every Wolverine scene where he's in a bar in the Yukon territory
;D

I find Patrick to be completely unrelatable. To a point of distraction.
Enjoy everything else.

Dude I kinda feel the same way. Not sure how exactly to explain it but he sounds like he lives in Instagram or something. When he talks it doesn’t sound as if he exists in the real world, but only on the internet.
Sometimes he says cool stuff. The other 3 dudes are very much from my same mind space in skating so obviously I like the pod.

I do not agree with Mike on the AWS Cinematographer Project edit, but that's okay.
Based on this episode I went and read the Bo Turner Chromeball interview and that was a cringey read, imo.
-
Love this pod. The bunt and Mostly skateboarding always are priority to any other pod. The episode with the photographer that shot the Evan smith thrasher cover is an awesome episode. I also really enjoy their takes on skating etc. solid pod.

Same. Love the pod though. Thanks for starting the thread Coss, will be nice to (potentially) chime in weekly.

I love the podcast but I concur about Patrick being out of touch. Every episode he’ll trail off the subject to flex his knowledge of irrelevant facts and then be completely clueless about everything else.
The rest of the guys are great though
-
I’m a big fan of this podcast.
the hosts cover a good range of skateboarding experience; Patrick in particular has a great skill for placing ideas & skate events within far wider social scope. his take on the brutal Caesar Singh CBI interview hit me in a way I would never have considered or understood.
Keep up the good work gents.
-
Been listening for almost a year now, I really liked the pod, every week I'm waiting for it and they had a few greats interviews there Greg hunt, The guy for 4ply, Kyle Beachy, Consent is Rad etc.. And far from what some people said I enjoy most the podcast when Patrick is in it, like he have a wider view of everything, which make the pod better, not the typical USA's host, centric, state of mind whatever. Make it different, and for me, being from outside United States, and Immigrant, I really relate to his views.
Not gonna lie, sometimes he flex on his knowledge and vocabulary, even said a lot of stuff to make a simple question but it doesnt bother me. Even I can remember in some interviews, after all his flex the guest always reply with "good question" LOL.
Only flaws, I always wish it was longer and really hate when they put music at the end while talking, the music is too loud, they should check that, specially in the last episode.
-
his take on the brutal Caesar Singh CBI interview hit me in a way I would never have considered or understood.
seems that Caesar himself was not too fond(to say the least) of Patrick's comments and made multiple IG posts roasting him: https://www.instagram.com/illiturit1/?hl=en

Been pretty stoked on this pod for a while. Definitely helps me get through doing chores on Sundays.
-
Great Pod, been listening for about a year now. I love the beginning episodes too, with the short stories. I see why some people can get annoyed by Patrick but, he has a take on skateboarding that isn’t really represented in any other skateboarding Pod. Thanks for keeping us stoked for Sunday’s!
-
I like the pod, it use to make my monday morning better at work (I am now unemployed, yahey). I like Patrick, but I am french and understand all of his references. For sur sometimes it seems like he is trying to hard tho.
The bunt is still the only podcast that matters skateboarding wise but this one offers something nice. 4 kind of old skate nerds talking about what's going on, it's comfy and relatable.
-
Thank you Fongool, I had no idea
Patrick’s perceptions of internalised racism gave me food for thought.
causing Caesar distress sucks though
-
Love the pod, hate Patrick

Have to agree. It’s cool, but clearly Patrick’s has a whole other side trip that is just not relatable for me. Obviously a smart and passionate guy though.

But yes, cool pod - also checkout Talkin Schmit for the old heads, less wellknown and classics.

don't want to continue to pile on patrick in here because he seems like a good guy, but he's really hit or miss. when he's good he's good but when he's bad it makes the podcast unlistenable, like when he derails the conversation with "when i was in france playing guitar and wearing tight pants" style stories like bro shut the fuck up. he reminds me of so many other pseudo intellectual academic windbag type dudes i've know in my life, where he thinks everything he says is way more interesting than it actually is. he has his insightful moments but you have to endure a lot of eye-rolling stuff to get to it.

Fair to say Caesar wasn’t thrilled with Pat’s psychoanaliks;
”A co-host stops himself mid-sentence, guilt probably taking over, and says, "God, I mean all we're kind of doing is psychoanalyzing this (man)." And, despite admitting to not being a licensed psychiatrist, Kigongo chuckles as if really enjoying himself and replies, "Well, we have a lot to 'work' with."
As it turns out...so do I:
He starts the podcast off with a written joke. "CBI starts off Black History Month with a 'dark'—no pun intended—and reflective interview with (me)." The joke goes over my head because in 48 years I've never once been referred to as dark-skinned. But, six minutes later, he does it again, suggesting there probably weren't too many "dark-skinned brothers of color" like myself in Salinas. And, then four minutes later, he suggests Chuck Wampler viewed me, "the dark-skinned brother," as the lowest person on the totem pole. And, I finally begin to wonder, What the fuck is going on here? Why does a man, who's considerably darker than myself, keep referring to me as dark-skinned?
In the black community, being dark-skinned is often something that is looked down upon and mocked. And, my intuition is that Kigongo's trying to do that here, belittle me. But, my mother is white, and I've regularly been referred to as light-skinned throughout my life. So, in trying to paint me in a tone that I'm not, he's actually revealing more about himself than he is of me.
At one point he oddly suggests that I don't even think I'm black, going so far as to say I'm ripe for a Proud Boys initiation. Meanwhile...he's about all things black, yet marries a white woman. In six years, I rose to the rank of professional skateboarder, but he still portrays my journey as ending up in me being "lost". Meanwhile...he's been skating for twenty-plus years but still can't reach the top of a two-foot tall quarterpipe. And, here he's labeled me as "dark-skinned" thrice in ten minutes meanwhile...he's sporting the complexion of coal.
Now, I'm not a licensed psychiatrist either, but something's legitimately going on here and the question of the day is: Why?
But...
Thankfully, he too has given me a lot to work with and I too am an asshole; so...let the work continue”

Yeah, fair cop - there’s some shit guests, and Schmitty can be a headache, if it was just him blustering it would be unlistenable; but he has some rad guests and let’s them talk, so I grab the ones that spark my interest like Salman, Freddy, Skip Engbloom, Busenitz, Satva, Mimi Knoop, JT Aultz, Lil B etc.
Problem for me is Mostly Skateboarding has basically no guests ever, so is just those dudes shooting the shit, which is cool but kinda goes nowhere. Imagine nineclub with no guests (basically “the experience”) complete garbage; what if The Bunt was just all postoffice and no guests - would get rough. Just my opinion, Mostly is just hottakes and shittalking, and we’ve already got Slap for that! It’s all cool though, glad they do there thing.
-
I love that Patrick rips on Caesar on a public platform, but wants Caesar to take it the DM and not publicly.
Been enjoying the podcast mostly, bar Patrick and despite some crazy takes (The AWS cinematographer in particular).
-
I don't listen to every episode but have listened to the bulk of them over the last six months. Despite constantly referencing "old man yells at cloud," they constantly come off that way to me. They all mutually didn't like the Yuto VX part that recently came out. Are you kidding me?! They also casually shit on Nyjah every chance they get which is pretty cliche at this point.
The Venture Trucks guy at one point claimed he "hates Toy Machine" because they took skateboarding a step away from east coast "Mixtape" hip hop era. I've never heard anyone flat out say they hated Toy Machine, how can you hate Toy Machine?! As open minded as they all pretend to be about skateboarding and the world in general, wanting skating to revolve around one style is the opposite of that.
Patrick's rants can be interesting sometimes, but he went on an anti-SF rant a couple weeks ago just destroying the city, without giving a single hard reference to what he was talking about. Kind of lost me there with that bullshit.
I'll probably still casually listen when there's a topic I'm interested in, but I liked the pod more before they had hosts and it was just ex pro-skaters talking about a crazy day they had in their career.

was this during the china banks episode? he said san francisco sold it's soul, which is pretty much true. tech, gentrification and local gov't have changed the city so much that it's not really surprising they'd tear it down. what's more surprising to me is the rate of 77% of residents that are down for the demolition. surrounded by the financial district & wealthy neighborhoods like nob hill & north beach, i'd question who these residents actually were and how these surveys were administered.
off topic, richard quintero did one episode of a podcast series that i wish had continued. the first/only episode is with brian delatorre and his story about ayahuasca. it uses some background music & effects, like a npr segment.

Wow thanks for this... never heard of this podcast. I join to you in the "I wish had continued" department.

man these guys get things wrong more than the nine club do lol. constantly incorrect, and just going on the most weird tangents. they aren't even skate nerds. just regular nerds.
"adam loreth"
"kareem calander had curtains"
"jay-zoo fernandez"
"jerry shoe"
"chocolate is elite"
"brand narrative"

Yeah the podcast is not bad usually and makes passing time at work more bearable, but holy shit these guys really lack skateboarding knowledge for someone who has a podcast on the subject. They are indeed older but sometimes they have jaded points of view and it comes off as more as the point of view of someone who used to skate and not of someone who actually skateboards now.
Finally, why don't they just say they are sponsored by Venture instead of faking that they are stoked on them every week? Not saying they aren't but after the 4th week hearing , "Im stoked on Venture trucks out San Francisco" you already know they are saying that because they get gear or some money from them and not really stoked on em.
-
Pretty much everything @carbonite says on the pod should be taken with the knowing humor it is intended with. He is awesome. Can’t defend some of his mispronunciations but chalk it up to outsider charm.
-
They pretty much compare everything to the 90s. I feel like Rocco gets brought up in almost every episode as if he didn’t leave the industry 20 years ago, it’s an interesting take to say the least. I do enjoy the episodes when they have guests like John Marello, Farran Golding and Chris Mulhern on.
-
The pod is okay, but those dudes have some pretty lame takes. During the Mind Goblin episode the one guy said Bill Strobeck is the most underrated filmer in skating. They get stuff wrong all the time and their reverence for the 90’s is a little over the top. And yeah claiming to be “stoked on” venture every week is lame.

Yeah I had to stop listening to the Chocolate Bunny Hop episode. They said it was Carl Aikens’ first part when hes had multiple parts with Naquan Rollings, some of which are on Thrasher… then said he was mainly an ig skater. And they hated on Dylan Jaeb like he’s just some park skating instagram schmuck, when he’s an Am on some of the top companies in skating, and has appeared in multiple videos. Which just shows how out of touch they are. The whole crew really do seem like they are too outside of skating and past it all to be doing this.

Lol what? Correct me if I’m wrong but Dylan has one street part out. And mob and DC count as some of the “top companies in skating” now?

Did you even listen to this episode. Give me a break. They sound ridiculous. They even suggested Jamie Thomas dropped him from Zero when clearly Dylan left. He’s been touring with DC and had some tricks in their edit. No one is saying Jaeb is super accomplished yet but trying to shit on the dude when he’s 17 came off as tone deaf. And yeah Id say being on a team with Evan Smith, Wes Kremer, Ish Cepeda etc, and filming with Bobby Bils for NHS when you’re still in high school is significant. Not to mention he’s on Thunder and Dickies. You must love this podcast huh lol

Hi Dylan
-
Hi Dylan
Lol, really well thought-out response. When’s the next podcast episode coming out? This show was so bad I considered emailing the makers to let them know. Seems like I just met one here so I’ve been spared the trouble
-
It's probably my favorite podcast. I appreciate their energy, even if I am not as stoked on Venture trucks as Jason is.
Templeton's appreciation for good wool is really relatable.
-
shocked at all the negative takes in this thread, i thought the past few months have been the best stuff they've ever done, that john marello episode was insanely great context for the chocolate vid and well timed.
it's like you all think that in order for a podcast to be good, the dudes have to have the "right" opinion. what does that even mean? I think it means that you need them to agree with you, or some kind of SLAP consensus. corny.
I don't agree with them sometimes, but it is still highly engaging stuff, and nobody is doing what they are, especially when it comes to the interview eps. Nine club is just too softball, and bunt boys do great but act like filmers and industry people don't exist when it comes to planning interviews. mostly skateboarding is in their own lane.
and I'm not even gonna quote the dude who said they're wrong more than 9 club. embarrassingly incorrect and apples to oranges take; can't even believe you typed that up much less hit post.
-

It’s not that important, relax. It’s a free podcast, don’t listen that’s all

I've only listened to a few episodes but the only person who I've noticed has eye rolling takes or gets things really wrong is Patrick. The rest of the hosts are cool.

You’re right. Stopped listening. Just bummed about low effort shit and skating is important to me so I get a little worked up sometimes
-
I found the mental health episode to be nice. Marello's interview was also really good. Hopefully, they will do some more things along the lines of this.

Nine Club straight up just don't know as opposed to Mostly Skateboarding who do frequently get things wrong. It is frustrating listening to them get something wrong in terms of Skate x riding for this company, or a saying a video x coming out 5 years either side of when it actually came out. It's really basic stuff they get wrong too.
-
The first episodes where Templeton Elliott edited himself out so it was just the interview subject telling stories were pretty interesting. The Donny Barley, Tobin Yelland, and the Colin Kennedy ones were so great.
-
guys remember that they are 40 year old, of course they are out of touch.
The only thing that annoyed me was when Patrick dissed a sunny day real estate by saying they need to stop putting these emo songs in skatevideo or something like that (when they talked about the vans video).
Also sometimes it seems like he name drop or make analogy just to flex on some stuff he knows like krautrock or something. Maybe not but since it never add anything to convo or make the other host react it seems pointless.
But I still like it when I need to kill an hour. When I was working a few month ago I was hyped to listen at work on monday tho.
Also the few interview ep I heard were on point
-
It's a shame the audio was completely botched in their last episode, because I was interested in the topic of legacy spots. Do they not check the audio before they record, or listen back to it once it's done/they publish it?
-
Bumping this because the newest episode is so good. It’s a really good interview with Jacob Rosenberg. It would have been sick if templeton was on this week, but it was still really enjoyable.

Just listened to the Magenta Just Cruise 2 episode and I find it unbelieveable that they seriously thought the video was filmed on VX. They seriously cant be so out of touch with skating and still have a somewhat big podcast.
Also, Patrick we know you speak french, stop trying to show off by just naming a bunch of cities and talking about your experience in France from 20 years ago.

hahahahaha its just funny bad at this point

They had to have been joking about the 'sully' rebrand discourse during the HUF video review..right? Clealy and obviously it's his nickname, and one that he has been referred to in videos and probably in print too...wild...this show has been passable to throw on in the background while working, but man its getting to be really bad...
Im not even a camera nerd and knew that it was a HD cam with a mk1 in the Magenta video

They were talking about the sci fi team during the arin part review and debated whether GH was fully on and didn't even know/mention corey glick. Someone also pronounced her name "Ah-rin."
They also poo poo'd some joke GH made about tom knox having too many kids. Fuck these joyless,pompous, old, ass at skating, dumbasses. They started a podcast seriously just to listen to their own voices. I seriously would rather listen to the nine club because at least they know they're kinda dumb and are self aware.

People who think Mark Suciu is pretentious have never heard Patrick opine about France and fashion and whatever other bullshit he shoe-horns into every response.
Now that guy is fucking pretentious

I suffered through ~15 minutes of their dreadful podcast to hear their review of Vans "Keepsake" where the female host explained that this 10 minute video was the "perfect length" because she can't pay attention to those half hour videos. Then they really went on to discuss how cool Beatrice's "opening line" was before dismissing the skating of Corey Glick.

Instant pass on the pod if Patrick is on. Fucking pretentious kook.

Well I quite like it. Can't speak to the mistakes because I barely pay attention to the skate industry myself these days but I enjoy that it's a skating podcast where the presenters don't say like a thousand times per sentence or deviate into the same old story about how they got sponsored.

Newest Episode with Josh Ellis from wiskate.com is so good. Lots of chat about early skate internet, IRC, BBS's etc. crazy to have a website up for 25 years. Also the fact that they handed the Beez DVDs to non skater strangers at the bar is so good 🤣

Latest episode is a bit of a dud.
45 minutes of basketball employee chat and 5 minutes Rocco returns chat.
I like the podcast but Patrick needs to chill on the fits talk. I get the feeling he just loves to listen to his own voice and can’t help flexing his culture and politics muscle a bit too hard.
What happened to their female host??

I think it’s hilarious how much this podcast has praised Rocco on multiple episodes and talked about how much he could do today if he was still around. Then when he is announced to come back they end up saying that he probably won’t be able to do much since he’s old and hasn’t been in the industry for 20 years. These guys are fried.

need to listen to the last ep but weird that they did not talk about it for hours because Rocco has been named dropped so many times in this pod. They are always comparing everything to tim and henry, rocco, rodney, plan b so for once that it is relevant
I agree their is a weird dissonance between how Patrick talks about clothe and "fits" and how he dresses. When you listen to him it seems like he is such an authority on fashion and coolness. He just need to chill a bit
same with music. He is a bit too sur that his tastes are the right one
but he is just beeing himselft I guess and I should just shut up
The other host left a few ep ago

Not trying to hate hard on the guy. I just find he has a tendency to hijack conversations to drop his fashion sense knowledge, or as you said music sense, which sometimes feels wholly irrelevant to the topic or distracting from actual skate talk.

Patrick’s fit talk has grown on me. The has a great quote this week, something like,” they need to post up in New York, listen to drill, and blah blah blah”. He says it with such conviction and I think he is being serious but I can’t always tell. He keeps me guessing.
Mattie or Maddie, sorry I don’t have instagram, bowed out graciously. She was a real one and I like how she was so low key like giving respect to her scene instead of personal props etc.
This is the podcast I look forward to the most each week.

Me too!
Maddie was awesome to have on there, was bummed she left.

It’s really only Jason on there that loves the old World days. But he wasn’t on this week. The other hosts don’t seem to hold that same reverence for early world industries. So not surprised on those takes.

Any word on why she decided to leave the pod?

What happened to their female host??
the 'basketball employee' is also silas baxter neal's filmer
it was also cool to hear him talk about differences between filming basketball and skating
some people have interests outside of skateboarding, maybe that makes the episode a 'dud' for you but it was far from a dud for me

I think she is just humble and doesn’t want to put herself out there in that way

Thanks for the link.
I honestly didn’t catch that from the discussion at all. All I understood was he filmed some basketball team with a vx and somehow it got attention. Yes, the guy skates but I think I would have preferred more SBN tales. My bad.
Still think the lack of Rocco banter was a miss though.

Yah on maddie, it was just rad having a different perspective in there on a lot of levels….hopefully they bring in some different people from time to time….even audibly there’s a point with more than two dudes with no guest, it’s too much for me.
