Grab Matters Podcast Hunter Thane

Today we sit down with a few members of the Space Mob crew, Wes Jacobsen, Quinn Silvernale, and Crosse Bearden. After cracking bevvies from none other than Valdosta’s own Fifth Street Booze, we chat about cable park etiquette, do a Space Mob boot giveaway, go over riders pay, answer some patreon questions, get a message from Simon Pettai, and talk about Space Mob’s latest movie project this summer. Hear that and much more in Episode #3 of Shop Talk from the Grab Matters Podcast!
