Episode 94 - The Skoops Episode

Skoops is a very interesting person. He is an avid skateboarder, surfer and musician. Skoops is my friend. Skoops is also a black man. I feel like it is so very important to get the perspective of people outside of our own perspectives, in order to grow, learn and be a better person. So let’s talk to Skoops! We talk about growing up skating, surfing and playing music, plus much more. The songs of the episode are by bands that Skoops has been involved in through the years, the bands Bertos and Floor Notes.

Episode 42 - Skate And Destroy Part 3

This is it! The conclusion of the Skate & Destroy series. In this one, the focus is on some time I spent with the “Alva Posse”, plus the end of my friendship with Gator. Music? Oh, this episode has the best music the late 80’s and early 90’s had to offer - Vencie, CA’s Excel!!! THE Champions of Crossover and thrash metal, Excel. Rad. Two stories of the times that Tony Alva had to chastise me and what happened when Mr. Alva lost his $80.00 sunglasses. Also, the end of my friendship with Gator - hint - it happened shortly before he went to jail for rape and murder. Ugh. Besides that ugliness, this is a really fun episode! Skating. Destroying. Shennanigans aplenty!!! Here’s a couple of links -
