  • Guests are great. Hosts are a joke.

    The hosts of this podcast are terrible. They sound super unintelligent. The Jake Phelps episode is amazing because he put them right where they belong. I highly recommend that episode because he is not having it. These guys don’t sound like they skate at all they just sound like bad actors. It’s very hard to listen to. I don’t understand how it has such good reviews. Vans needs to find new hosts.

    These have got to be the biggest clowns in skateboarding podcast history. Shadow banning, and deleting comments is not the right move, especially when you’ve dragged certain skateboarders names through the mud for unproven allegations, then they have a skater who’s been accused of sex crimes on the podcast and completely disregard the real victims side of the story. I hope skateboarders realize how hypocritical these two are. You should both transition into women and show your true feminine colo... more
