I back Ben. he's 100% skater and a survivor of substance abuse.

Really? This surprises me seeing he was married with kids at 25.

a great episode imo worth the watch, but if tl;dw he says basically "i got into all the worst drugs in all the worst ways" he doesnt really dive into much more detail than that and says he got clean a long time ago. <3

Think he started young like a lot of skaters and got clean in his early 20s. People be out here living fast when they’re basically babies. It’s wild.

yeah where i am from smaller town seems like people are a lot less mature / grow up a lot slower than people from the big city. you see a lot more shit i guess, you grow up a lot faster as a result.

I am just watching his video now to learn how to fix a massive hole in my drywall

Are we at a point where skateboarding is like comedy and people are gonna start doing vlogger tours like how comedians go to la and do all the podcasts?

Also how olds dan? How'd he never see a nollie front heel like that

[rocklobster]

Dan gets a lot of hate but the ledge line he does at 6:50 legit, love a good BS Nosegrind pop out mid ledge

Only ben can make me watch dan corrigan and also the nine club if he actually gets on.
He liked a few instagram comments about him going there

Now that would be great. I know most folks hate YouTubers, but I’d like to see a few of them like Ben on there. Hell, I’d even watch Kyro if he appeared on there. Sure he’s a kook, but Braille has gotten a lot of kids into skateboarding. I guarantee there will be a young pro one day that will give him a shoutout lol 😂

Ben is also in the other Corrigan video with Daewon in the thumbnail.

It was crazy to hear Dan say "glad I got a thumbnail", weird as hell to hear that in relation to Ben

[grassblade]

dan corrigan is a desperate cornball

[radcunt]

Poor Ben goes all the way to LA and gets sandbagged by Dan

[OhioGuy]

Ben is a good sport. I honestly think he’s better than the typical skate YouTubers and working with them is a little beneath him, but what the hell do I know? He clearly doesn’t take himself too seriously. I just prefer his dad humor over the cringe stuff from the average Skatetuber.

[rawbertson.]

that video made me actually like dan a bit more. he talks too mcuh on his videos though, he repeats himself tons and should get more to the point. the 2 or 3 that i have clicked i couldnt get through more than a minute or two without fast forwarding. i fastforwarded most of the daewon video. i feel like ben talks the perfect amount and mixes it up just enough with the skate clips.

Only Ben can work with Gifted Hater and Dan Corrigan and be fully himself in each instance.

[Badmeaningood]

Was not digging the repeated extreme close ups of Dan's teeth

[OhioGuy]

Should just get him to make a bunch of decks to his liking, but knowing Ben he’d get tired of them after a few sessions and the madness would return 🤣

I wonder if Ben will get an interview in Thrasher eventually. He seems university respected enough for something like that.

Would be cool. Do they ever interview YouTubers?

[bbk]

He really does feel university respected!

[radcunt]

Sometimes I sit and ponder the pure enormity of the university. A humbling experience.

[Shrinedescender]

Heard Professor Schmitt put in a good word for him at the university for an honorary doctorate

the interview dan corrigan.

[zozu]

I assume he will probably be on the nine club, would he really fly to california just to hang out with gifted hater and dan corrigan?

[Bill Salt]

He's a geeky skaterat.I like his vids despite he looks kinda lonely with his cam and tripod.He also has a "Flanders" look and overacts his bails all the time which is really annoying...

Finally, an episode worth tuning in for!
