Let's face it, the mainstream news media is going to attempt to cover skateboarding all the way up to the 2020 Olympics and we're just going to have to deal with it. Pedro Barros is going to step down soon and we lost another L.A. legend over the weekend.

EP 24: Bam Margera's cry for Help
Tuesday Aug 06, 2019
Tuesday Aug 06, 2019
Have to be honest in that this episode was a tough one to get through. Starting off with the good -- I'm finally back on the Thrasher magazine train as I finally received my first issue. X Games Minneapolis went down over the weekend and the world saw the first ever 1260. And finally, I address the latest downward spiral of Bam Margera that also happened over the weekend.
