Mike Carroll & Jacob Rosenberg: Weekend Buzz ep. 108 pt. 1,2,3

[Bubblegum Tate]

[pinch a loaf]

Time to plan a Ride Channel headquarters heist to steal the full unedited 2 and a half hour version. Who's with me?

[Noble Experiment]

This is a breath of fresh air for weekend buzz, especially after the abomination of an episode the Tony Tave one ended up being.
I sense quite a bit of arguing to come over the fakie Fs flip/ Fs half cab flip debate.
What Lee said about being a skateboarder and growing up being a skateboarder right before the episode ended was spot on.
Also, why does Mike look ten years younger here? Does anyone else find it weird, or is it just me? He looks like he dipped his face in the fountain of youth.

Makes a huge difference when you have actual adults on. Brink, maybe you need to start veterans only Buzz.

Oops. Meant to write lee obviously. Not sure why I wrote Ty. It was a total Freudian slip. I think it was cuz they mentioned Ty earlier in the episode and he was on my mind, and I was writing that response out pretty fast, didn't really stop to think what to write, was just writing down my thoughts on the spot as they were coming to me, so I put his name by mistake.

[Shitbag]

Obviously the best in the series so far, this is gonna get so fucking good in part 2 and 3, I could watch these 2 shoot the shit all day.
As mentioned before MC looks great and it's not surprising, he takes care of himself I think Pilates and stretching constantly and probably doesn't party as much as when he was younger, that'll make a huge difference in your appearance.
Jake Rosenburg is awesome I can't wait to hear more tales of the early days of Plan B, if you don't already follow him on Insta I highly recommend it he posts the raddest shit from back then.
I know it's been hammered to death and everyone says it a lot but Mike Carroll is the fucking best dude.
Seriously.

[OldieButFrenchie]

awesome. really looking forward to the other parts!

that tunnel vision thing is so true. but it's also part of what makes skateboarding great so.......
not sure kids these days are like that though.

[Sleazy]

i was thinking the same thing about mike looking super young. guy must be running marathon's or something. maybe he doesn't drink. what's in those bottles they are sipping? is that yuppie water or vodka?

[Allen.]

That went way, way too fast.

This. I sat down with a smoke and a coffee and birdman'd my hands together while it buffered... never before h as 11 minutes went by so fast. I need a 45 hour episode of Carroll nerding out.

[castillo's curls]

I've said for years now that it was Carroll who brought back the "proper" hardflip in Modus. Thanks for addressing that Brink! 

[DixonYurazo]

that got really inspirational real fast with the rosenberg back story.  he's the man.  and yes, thanks for bringing up that line, so sick to hear him talk about it like that.

[Ccannon]

God damn this is awesome

[Fongstarr.]

Carroll still repping FTC with the Mac Dre shirt.. Gotta love him.

[dillanharp]

QUIT FUCKING WITH US, RELEASE THEM ALL NOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW...

Stevie, too.

I feel like Crailtap could pull itself out of whatever financial woes it may be facing if they just sent Rick and Mike on a year-long skate-lecture tour around the globe (after they are done filming for the next lakai vid of course).  Stopping at major theaters or venues and just watching old Girl videos and commenting on parts, telling random stories, and dedicating a good hour or so to Q & A.  they could even have random surprise guests at each stop, like MJ, or Spike, or whomever.  i'd go on hiatus, buy a VW bus, and follow that like the Dead.

That really did go by too fast and you guys left it in a good cliffhanger. I didn't begging skating until 2000 so don't know any of the significance of the old Plan B team and Mike T. I've done my research and seen plenty of skate vids and documentaries about Plan B and i still doesn't necessarily get what Mike T did. Was he pretty much a skate coach father figure?? did he actually skate or just direct his skate team??

Fun fact, the first sequence ever of Herman doing a hardflip was down a four block in Thrasher and they did credit it as an "inward kickflip". The footage is in his part in This is Skateboarding.

I mean I've heard 2 different things.

The obvious is that he was great guy the pushed all his riders on plan B and everyone loved him. Did anyone actually clash with him because of this? 

I also heard there were people outside of Plan B who genuinely hated him. Not sure for what though.

I'm pushing for this once all 3 parts are out. The audio version for the podcast-hungry.

would be so rad.

[Righteous Victim]

On Tim O'Connor's podcast Gonz said he didn't like Mike T.

[The Woodsman]

This is going to be like a 6 parter right?

[happenstance]

I am guessing that preview was a Sheffey story? I remember the good old days when a standard interview question was "tell us your best Sheffey story". I think Fred Gall stories have taken the place of that one for newer generations.

I've heard ramblings of the volume of unreleased footage Rosenberg has. I hope this is discussed and he caves in and agrees to release?

seriously, please do this.  i enjoyed every second of this.

quick aside: if you guys don't, you should follow jacob rosenberg on instagram.  he posts a lot of unseen footage from the EMB era including an awesome one from carroll today.

[Iceman]

I sense quite a bit of arguing to come over the fakie Fs flip/ Fs half cab flip debate.

i think carroll just squashed that debate.
