great episode if you're interested in entrepreneurship, trading cards, golf, nfts or just being bored

i thought it was a good episode but seriously what is he thinking with a skate trading card nft. Who is gonna buy that?


A lot of people. People are collecting skateboard related stuff more than ever these days.


Think it's time for him & Girl to part ways. Long overdue.

I think Mike Mo would be fine with it. Seems he's just on due to him being Crail family and they probably just give him royalties at this point. To be honest, the amount of people Crail has who have put out less footage than Mike-Mo in the past decade despite Mike-Mo essentially retring 7 years ago is quite astonishing.

Maybe one of my favourite episodes of all time. The conversation flowed real well, and had me laughing a couple times. Coulda been longer. Would be cool to get him back on later.

It’s been said many times, some of the best guests are people no longer sponsored.

Agreed. People no longer sponsored have to actually find themselves outside of skateboarding and tend to be much more well rounded. Listening to skaterats all the time gets old pretty quick, maybe it’s just where I’m at in life. I skate frequently and have other interests outside of skating.

Like no offense to John Dilo but he’s just a pure skater with seemingly no other interests.. dream job outside of skating is being a TM.. really?

i could definitely be wrong but i don’t see it. Collecting old boards and stuff sure, but this seems like a just “give me money” scheme

Good episode but im sort of bummed Mike Mo doesn’t really skate much, if at all.., anymore and is seemingly more hyped on golf.
[close]

I mean, he physically basically can't skate anymore and he's said on multiple occasions that it's not enjoyable for him anymore because it's frustrating and disappointing to not be able to skate how he used to.

That episode was excellent.
[close]
That's fair, I remember him mentioning all that on the nine club. I guess I find it hard to understand because skating at the level he can probably skate at now, although not as good as before, would be a dream for me or the average skater.
[close]
I don't think it's just not being as good. Prior to that he already had a ton of ankle injuries. And catestrophic trauma to the mix and even doing simple shit could lead to your ankle blowing up with swelling.

It's not even about his foot/ankle swelling. That foot is essentially dead. From the way I have heard him describe it other places it sounds like its just a human flesh prosthetic. He has to wear a carbon fiber plate that goes under his foot with a spring/elastic band that wraps above the ankle that pulls the foot up when lifting his leg.

Pretty sure he tweeted out a few months back that he thought Girl should drop him and he admitted he shouldn't be pro anymore. I'm sure he's grateful for Girl's support but he knows for sure he isn't going to influence the skate world anymore. He's set with Glassy and this new NFT venture I'm sure will only help him

Hearing Kirchart as his favourite skater was a random surprise

Oh, I know he has drop foot. I just meant when your foot/ankle is fucked, even minor trauma (the stress from landing a popped flip trick) can lead to annoying ass swelling.

Pretty sure he tweeted out a few months back that he thought Girl should drop him and he admitted he shouldn't be pro anymore.

Yeah, I was totally expecting him to say P-Rod or Koston given how he skates. But saying PJ had the biggest influence on him made a ton of sense.

I'm not as surprised to hear about skaters having favorites that skate nothing like them. Kinda reminds me of that Tyshawn doc when his mom mentioned his favorite skater growing up was Lizard King. Makes sense to prefer to watch someone who skates nothing like yourself.

Great point.

I'm sort of surprised when it comes to favorite, best, or favorite video part I don't think I've ever heard Lucas.

I’d rather hear them interview older (former) pros that they’re actually hyped on than a younger flavor of the month skater that they don’t really know.
[close]

Agree with you because ex/former pros have more histories to tell, and can shot some fire to anyone being outside of the industry now. Something that not all the younger flavor will do to keep safe their carreer.

Yep I believe they've openly stated that's what they're going for (might've been in the Jack O'Grady episode), that they usually go for older folks with a lot of history to tell but were making an exception for Jack cause he's gnarly, and also hilarious.

Great ep up until the NFT talk. Not surprised mikemo would be the first guest to bring up NFTs. When they started talking about investing I had a feeling they would go into that territory.

Agreed, the story time section was hilarious. I love how stoked both of them were. I was crying at the JT aultz story that might have been the best story of the season

I also couldn't think of a single trick he's ever done, but this was definitely one of the funniest episodes. Plenty of good stories and liked his honesty.

Watched some of his parts on youtube and the editor really did him dirty on that since day one part
