Doesn’t look like they’ll be touching any really controversial topics but MC is on my Rushmore, so hyped on this!



They asked about Biebel, and it apparently the people who took issue with a homeless person getting assaulted are actually the "mean" ones.

I can’t believe people are still white knighting that random 10 second insta story that biebel just walked by and documented

Was that the longest Rapid Fire ever?
His answers were so long I forgot they were in the Rapid Fire section a couple times.

Carroll really sucks at telling stories, this wasn’t the banger you old heads thought it would be.

Wasn't the best interview. The only thing that I thought was interesting was that Carroll said he fired Daniel Wheatley because he went on vacation to go visit Scott Johnston when he said have been filming for "The Flare" Lakai video because it was crunch time and he thought that was setting a bad example. He also mentions that Wheatley was instagramming pictures of himself in a hot tub on a Boys of Summer Trip when he should have been filming more lol. Another interesting bit of information was that he originally wanted to do a switch f/s bigspin back blunt on a handrail and Koston beat him to it in "Fully Flared."

He’s always been, this ep was either gonna be a barn burner or flop, sadly it’s the latter - just like his businesses

Mike Carroll was absent from social media for years and lately he’s being a slut about it. And I’m here for it.

Is this surprising to people? I’m not sure he even finished high school. Dude’s whole life has just been skateboarding.

Carroll is looking better these days. I know he’s made some shitty decisions over the years, but dealing with illness, substance abuse, and child loss while co-owning several companies couldn’t have been easy. Glad he’s skating again on some rad dad type shit

Nah, I always knew—it’s just that when I was younger, I didn’t notice it as much. I'm 32 now, and it's more obvious. Still, he’s an amazing skater, and I’ve loved everything he’s been part of over the years. I wish he would open up more in interviews but I still liked the interview. I do understand it's still hard for him to talk about Lakai.

Just listened to it and I have to agree with the general consensus so far and that is this was a tough listen and I am a giant MC fan.

I was expecting so much more and I don’t know what else to say but that this was definitely a giant barn builder.

I thought the same. Also pretty on-brand for MC how it all went. Not trying to sound rude but maybe a lot of people just learned he talks how he does? Reminds me a little but how everyone was mad Jason Ellis was talking too much on Hawk vs Wolf with Heath, not knowing Heath probably wouldn't have taken over the extra talking space anyway

Ahhh, okay, that makes a lot of sense. The recognition that comes with age. That wasn’t meant as a dig, btw. It’s easy to forget (or even not initially understand) that so much of the industry is just guys who have only had skateboarding to inform their life. But when they wear homemade shirts to contests before they quit their sponsors, raid warehouses for product, run million dollar businesses on handshake deals, and fire riders in interviews while threatening to deliver product to their doorstep donning a strap-on, and you realize they started at age 14, 15, 17, etc. it all starts to make a lot more sense.

Dude looks so good on a skateboard, there’s no denying that.

MC seems like he’d enjoy dressing in drag. And there is nothing wrong with that.
