Grant opening with the bit about having no hair on his legs had me cackling before the show properly started😂😂

@rickingcrew7270 6 күн бұрын

Grant, Bolster, Friedman, Stecyk, MoFo, Goodrich - decades of images seared into my retina. Way before the internet - we knew their images and their work. Grant sells his iconic prints - and they are AMAZING in person. So great to hear JGB tell his stories.

Had a friend that had visited multiple SoCal skate spots in the 80s. We weren't bowl skaters but he went to visit Del Mar and they were in the process of demolishing it. He brought me a piece of the coping with blue and orange tile attached to it. Even though he didn't get to skate it and even though i didn't get out west until later, it's nice to have a park of skate history

You have some ORANGE tile?!?! Wanna trade something?

@hdoglesby 12 күн бұрын

@@TonyHawk Chunk of orange tile on part of the concrete backed coping. As much as I love what you've done for skateboarding I think I want to hold onto it for now. In the event of my passing away I will have my estate send the piece to you.

Thanks guys! I've been wanting an interview with this GOAT forever! Speaking of art, maybe you guys could get VCJ (Court) next?

So great. Picked up a push mug from Brittain's shop a few years ago. Good quality, size, and great graphic. Was always interested about the photographers. You'd see their name in the corner of the page, and wonder who's this?

Bought several iconic prints from grant’s shop. The highest quality and he’s a pleasure to deal with.

As Grant mentions his skate photographer influences, he mentions "Sharp", which would be Stan Sharp (RIP), but the video shows an amazing photo by my friend and legendary UK photographer, Leo Sharp! Pretty funny. Brilliant episode.

We like you guys also. Liked subbed a long time ago. This is such a great show. Totally speaks to the kid/adult 15 going on 51 crowd. Such great history. Love GRANT BRITAIN Fotos and video. Love Moonscapes I listen to that like some people listen to a cassette tape. The music was perfect ! I must have been saying it wrong for the last 30 years. Love all you guys.

Great (and somewhat elusive) guests as far as skate pods go, so far guys. Please consider Lotti, Hensely and Templeton as potential guests down the line. Those dudes need recent interviews.
