after listening to the angel and z podcast with O'Dell I was like "damn, he's really good on a podcast." and was hoping to get a longer and more in depth interview. this was it. I said this in the other thread about that specific podcast, but I really appreciate his thoughtful answers and the cadence that he speaks in. you know, these little pauses here and there because he's actually giving thought to how he's going to answer. it seemed like he was really starting to loosen up when they started talking about baseball and stickers at the end of the pod. it felt like Crob was kind of rushing to end things, too. this pod could have been 3 hours easily. I wish they would have dove more into some stories or experiences he had when he was in the trenches shooting skating.
an ocean howell EL would have been so sick. I don't think that dude gets enough credit.
he comes across incredibly humble despite the massive impact he's had on skateboarding and skate media, stating he's the, "boring guy," who brings the interesting people together. I don't view him like this at all, but again, its a testament to his humility. it's awesome to hear that he's sober and living the dad life. right around 30 was the age I started to grow out of the party, the desire to go out every night. I fully related to what he said about looking back at his blog from his 20s and feeling like a completely different person, but I'm sure many others here can relate to that too.
tl;dr - great pod.
