I no longer skate after 15 years but I genuinely love a podcast with skateboarders that don't talk about skating lol.

[@B.E.C.K.]

I love this kids dad Steve. He’s an absolute character.

[@nicholasmontoto9346]

As a new dad myself, Alex summed up a lot of what I’ve been feeling. Dope podcast.

[@DanielIvan707]

Good shit!

[@skulleagletartat]

It's cool he got holed up with his grandpa and dad during COVID, probably be grateful many years down the road he had that time with them. It's interesting with the kids and devices topic; I feel like the kids growing up now can click through apps without issue and in some cases without being able to even read, their brains are developing 'app based' which will probably cause some evolution of the brain over the next 100-1000 years. My 7 year old was clicking through apps at 3 with no instruction while stealing his mom's phone, is what it is. I try to offer some balance, I make my kids do physical things, even drag them to the skatepark whether they like it or not, I don't care if they slide on their butts down the bowl, have to do something. I go when people aren't there, believe me, I don't let them jam people up. Good show.

[@kirkearles]
