Bleav in Skateboarding with Jim Gray

Jim offers a perspective on skateboarding that is refreshing because it is such a rare and in some ways lost view. I think modern skateboarding had lost some of what made it great. Authenticity, truth to self, and general unselfconscious fun were the forms of rebellion that have given way to posturing for social media. Jim is a pioneer once again as some of those values start to return to skateboarding. Thanks Jim.

i'll try about any skate-pod. i'd like to hear more stories from jim's generation but his "interviewing" style is really bad. too much interrupting and self-congratulation. i'd love for someone else to make an oral history of early to mid 80's skateboarding, without talking over the guest.

Checked out the Glen Stallings interview. Really interesting discussion but way too much talking over each other. Difficult to listen to.

Thanks to Jim for taking time to create this great content. Looking forward to the future guests. Killing it from episode one till infinity.
