The Bones Brigade Audio Show

Yes, wall-jammers and tail-whackers, The Bones Brigade Audio Show is rolling out another new series-within-a-series for your aural enjoyment. Welcome to Volume 1 of Public Demain! We'll be sitting down with our good friend Adrian Demain from time to time to discuss any and all things, well, Adrian Demain. Tour tales, video memories, stories from the road- we'll get into it all. To kick off this hot new chapter of BBAS history, Adrian- along with Episode 71 special guest Miki Vuckovich- are back in the studio with us to talk turkey on everyone's favorite mythological monolith, the Chin Ramp. Are there ever enough tales to be told on this subject? Probably not, but as always, there's only one way to find out. Join us, shall you?

Welcome back to the show! Today, Larry and Matt are joined in the studio by two legends of the sport- Adrian Demain and Miki Vuckovich- to dissect the 1980 oddball odyssey, Skateboard Madness! While there’s no real way for anyone to pinpoint what this meandering film aspires to be- part skateboarding documentary and part road-trip comedy with roller skating, stop-motion, claymation and animated sequences thrown in- what cannot be disputed is the obvious and undeniable groundwork it helped to lay for star Stacy Peralta to bring to the early Bones Brigade videos that would follow just a few years later, where many of the movie’s scenes and themes would be repurposed and reimagined for the next generation. Was Mellow Cat’s epic urethane journey enough for him to keep his job at the Wonder Rolling News? There’s only one way to find out. Join us, shall you?

Welcome back to the show! For this, our 70th episode, we’re absolutely honored to be joined by none other than legendary photographer, artist, and author Glen E. Friedman to discuss the genre-defining 2001 film Dogtown and Z-Boys! Chronicling the rise of the fabled Zephyr Team in the 1970’s, this Stacy Peralta-directed documentary brought the roots of modern skateboarding- along with names like Tony Alva, Jay Adams, and Shogo Kubo- into the cultural mainstream, while paving the way for a slew of like-minded documentaries to follow. As a co-producer and creative consultant on the film- as well as having been pool and bank-side for many of the Z-Boys most renowned formative sessions- Glen brings a unique and truly one of a kind perspective, which he was gracious enough to sit down and share with us in candid detail.

Welcome back, Brigadeers! Today, we're in the studio to dig deep into Mike Vallely's Y2K documentary, Sponsored- and joining us once again is Mike's former Black Label and Street Plant teammate, good friend, and touring partner Kristian Svitak! At just over 30 minutes, Sponsored is an embryonic foray into the world of skate documentaries that covers Mike's life in skating up to that point- a mere blip on the radar of the career we know today- and shows us some of the earliest glimpses of footage from his early skateboarding years, including some incredible public access cable and TV commercial appearances and (to that point) never seen b-roll from his days filming for Public Domain, and much more. What are you waiting for?

Larry and Matt are back in the deep end to bring you another thrilling installment of The Bones Brigade Audio Show’s Sk8 TV Files! This time around we are joined in the studio by our good friend (and returning guest) Skate Talk Bob to discuss Episode 4 of everyone’s favorite Nickelodeon classic- “the only skateboarding show made by skaters, for skaters”, as it was known. This one is packed to the proverbial gills with the good stuff, including interviews with Powell stalwarts Ray Barbee and Lori Rigsbee, a look at the Transworld Skateboarding office in 1990 with the legendary Grant Brittain, a bowl-side chat in a blown out backyard with Tony Alva, and much more.

The BBAS crew, along with our good friend Jim Fitzpatrick, are back in the studio this week to delve headfirst into the short, sweet and mostly unknown Powell Peralta video, Camp Motherhood! Developed primarily as a tradeshow video- promotional material to support Powell’s 1989 sales and marketing initiatives- Camp Motherhood is an interesting time capsule, inadvertently bridging the gap between where Public Domain left off and Ban This started, and marking an infamous era for the ‘Brigade that saw the introduction of the notorious Field Manual, the exit of Mike Vallely, and numerous other changes beginning to manifest under the surface. As always, Fitz breaks it all down with more detail and behind-the-scenes knowledge than you could ever reasonably expect. You have your marching orders, private- so join us, shall you?

Welcome back to the show! We’re here at Episode 66, bringing you issue #14 of the much-celebrated BBAS Intelligence Report, and joining us in the studio for the occasion is none other than Florida vertical legend and Bones Brigade alum, Mike Frazier- along with special guest host Nick Halkias of Strangelove Skateboards! Join us as we get deep into the weeds with Mike on his early days skating in Clearwater, his time with Zorlac and subsequently turning pro for Powell Peralta, filming his groundbreaking sections for “8” and “Celebraty Tropical Fish”, his lost “Chaos” part, the importance of Skatepark of Tampa, and a ton more.

Here we are, ringing in 40 years of the McTwist; perhaps the first trick in skateboarding history to achieve “household name” status. With the possible exception of the 900, is there a single skateboarding trick more legendary? A single maneuver that has been requested more by crowds of delirious, sunburnt demo-goers? We don’t think so- and joining us here in the BBAS studio to back up this inarguable claim is renowned skate historian, author, artist, and Berlin Skateboard Museum curator Jürgen Blümlein! We talked with Jürgen about his involvement in the McTwist’s 40th anniversary celebration, his collaboration with Mike McGill and Vans on their upcoming limited-edition commemorative Sk8-Hi colorway, and we get deep into the trick’s rich four-decade history all the way back to that fateful evening at the Swedish summer camp in 1984.

Greetings, skateboard cultists, and welcome back to Issue #13 of the Intelligence Report! To say we’re excited for this one is an understatement, because joining us in the BBAS studio for an epic chat is none other than Eric Sanderson himself! An iconic member of the Bones Brigade during their 80’s heyday, Eric was prominently featured in nearly all of the most revered Powell Peralta videos, participated in innumerable summer tours, and is of course one of the four riders that made up Public Domain’s legendary Rubber Boys crew- and that’s just scratching the surface. We get into the weeds with Eric on his early days in skateboarding, getting sponsored, his long and dedicated career at Powell, filming for all the classic videos, and everything in between.

If you’ve listened this far, you surely know by now that we here at The Bones Brigade Audio Show have a borderline-unhealthy obsession with uncovering the smallest bits of minutiae available for anything and everything to do with the Powell Peralta videos. We assumed we were alone in this sickness, wandering the wastelands in search of forgotten parking lots and slabs of concrete once boardslid by the Rib Bones of giants. So, imagine our surprise when we came across the meticulously-crafted 40th Anniversary Bones Brigade Video Show Filming Locations video on the 80’s Life YouTube channel! We had no choice but to reach out to its creator- Kurt Crucial- and an instant bond of skateboard nerddom was formed. A true kindred spirit, Kurt joined us in the studio to take us through his life in skateboarding, his process of making his incredible filming location videos, and how he was able to find so many of these hallowed skate spots last visited by Lance Mountain and Stacy Peralta some four decades ago.

We interrupt this regularly scheduled two-week break to bring you a surprise episode of The Bones Brigade Audio Show! This past weekend, Powell Peralta unleashed Andy Anderson’s brand new “Crazy Wisdom” onto the world to great (and well-deserved) fanfare. So insane were the contents of this video that we decided to stop what we were doing, hop into the studio, and put our thoughts on tape! Come along as we discuss Andy’s incredible contributions to the world of creative skateboarding and our favorite parts of this 12-minute masterpiece.

Welcome back to the show! For this, the 12th issue of the BBAS Intelligence Report, we’re absolutely honored to be joined in the studio by none other than the legendary Sean Cliver! Picked out of a pool of more than 600 applicants to answer a 1988 Powell Peralta “artist wanted” ad, Sean packed his bags for a one-way trip to California where he spent three years creating some of the most revered graphics in the company’s history, ably filling the impossibly large shoes of the recently-retired VCJ before moving on to a storied career as an artist, author, TV and movie producer, and eventual skateboard company owner. In addition to taking us through the whole story of his time at Powell HQ from beginning to end- leaving no stone unturned- we discussed nearly every graphic Sean designed for the ‘Brigade during his stint at the drawing table, and tons more. It’s almost time for this week’s design review- so join us, shall you? Strangelove Skateboards is offering our listeners 50% off their art prints!

The BBAS crew headed west for an epic couple of days late last month to attend the Skateboarding Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Vans HQ in Costa Mesa, and in the process zig-zagged across Southern California to pack in a visit to the Powell Peralta factory, a full tour of Madrid Skateboards HQ, a stop at the Pink Motel, a tour of the SHOF Museum and wrapped it up in Venice at the Artful Dodgers art show, which featured the works of Stacy Peralta, Craig Stecyk and more. Come along as we tell the tales of checking out Jerry Madrid’s incredible screen-used Back to the Future Valterra board, touring SkateOne with Sean Cliver and Anita Tessensohn, line-hopping with Lance Mountain, and much more. From burritos to Bod Boyle to the Blue Tile Lounge, it was truly an adventure for the ages. Join us, shall you?

Interested in getting started with this whole skateboarding thing, but not sure where to begin? We’ve all been there. Luckily, the days of trying to figure it all out on your own ended long ago, thanks to the advent of skating’s most notable entertainment underdog, the often-overlooked instructional video! Today, Larry and Matt are back in the BBAS studio to delve into the belly of the beast, as we discuss Powell Skateboards’ year-2000 export, Basic Training. Indeed, by the time you’re done with this video (and, of course, this podcast) you’ll be ollieing like Danny Wainwright, nosesliding like Moses Itkonen, frontside 50-50’ing like Steve Caballero, and barking orders like Sergeant Slam!

“By skaters, for skaters”-as it was then, so it is now at The Bones Brigade Audio Show! Welcome back to another cannonball straight into the Deep End of Nickelodeon’s most notorious contribution to early nineties subculture, SK8-TV! Joining us in the studio for a part-by-part analysis of its fabled Episode 3 is none other than our good friend and returning special guest, the one and only Anthony Pappalardo. From Jim Thiebaud getting pummeled mid-interview by a bucket of water courtesy of Tommy Guerrero, to Lance Mountain getting his mouth duct-taped shut after drawing his own likeness on the bottom of Matt Lynn’s foot, to Ray Underhill preaching skate safety from an RV window somewhere along a California mountain roadway, this episode delivers the goods in a hilarious, rapid-fire fashion that would set the pace for the rest of the series.

We know what you’re thinking- what the hell is “Matcha Rules?" Indeed, The Bones Brigade Audio Show has not been shy about shining light onto some of the more obscure and unknown videos from the farthest corners of the ‘Brigade universe- but this one might just take the cake. What we have here, friends, is a half hour long, professionally produced, stacked and soundtracked 1999 Powell Skateboards Japan tour video featuring Steve Caballero, Jon Comer and Moses Itkonen… that no one has ever heard of. You won’t find it in a Google search. It’s not online. The aforementioned skaters that were in it have never heard of it. How it came to be made, printed, and immediately relegated to absolute obscurity- even in the age of the internet- is a complete mystery. However, as always, the BBAS crew- with the assistance of this episode’s special returning guest, legendary skate sleuth Bobby Puleo- are here to help unravel it all. Part by part, park by park and trick by trick, we get into the weeds and deliver you the VHS goods. Of course, you can come along for the ride, as this forgotten video enigma is now available for you to see in all its glory over on the BBAS YouTube channel. Does Matcha indeed rule?

Roads? For this episode of The Bones Brigade Audio Show, we don’t need roads. This week, the BBAS crew invite you to travel back in time to 1985 for the most complete and painstaking Back to the Future skateboarding retrospective ever assembled in one place! For many, this film- however unintentionally- marked the jumping off point, when skating entered the mainstream collective consciousness of legions of action-starved kids around the globe and helped kickstart the mid-80’s skate boom to follow. Joining us on our trip are three incredible guests: Jerry Madrid, owner of Madrid Skateboards, to discuss the origins of Marty McFly’s infamous Valterra/Madrid collaboration; Bob Schmelzer, Circle-A founder and pro freestyler who doubled for original BTTF leading man Eric Stoltz; and legendary Powell Peralta pro Per Welinder, who not only stepped into Michael J. Fox’s skate shoes for the refilming, but also managed to find himself sitting in a car careening toward the back of a famous manure truck for one of the movie’s most memorable scenes. We dig into the history, the filming, the stories, the culture, the graphics, and everything in between- so get that DeLorean up to 88 miles per hour and join us, shall you?

Welcome back to the show! For this- our eleventh installment of the Intelligence Report series- we are honored to be joined in the studio by the legendary Sophie Bourgeois! Aside from being known far and wide in the Bones Brigade universe for her short but memorable interview and freestyle segment alongside Anita Tessensohn and Lori Rigsby in 1988’s Public Domain, Sophie has a long and fascinating tale that is deeply rooted in skateboarding history. From her early days as one of Canada’s top female skateboarders in the late 1970’s to championship wins, meeting Kevin Harris, moving to the US, her two-year relationship with Rodney Mullen, filming with Stacy Peralta, injuries, comebacks, and the eventual bowing out for a career in academics and aviation- we cover it all and then some.

“Powell magic”- a topic of much discussion here at the BBAS from the very beginning. Faithful listeners have endured countless tales of spliced-in sound effects, bails cut into makes, Frankie Hill’s famous “foot POV” handrail, Robert Kittila’s experimental camera creations… the list of Powell’s magic moments goes on and on. Yet, there’s one considerably important bit of Powell Magic yet to be delved into- the 1998 video of the same name! Yes, Brigadiers, today we’ll be digging deep into Bones Brigade video 16- or so it’s labeled- and joining us for the adventure is none other than legendary Powell pro, global skateboarding ambassador and 23-time X Games medalist, Andy Macdonald! We go part-by-part with Andy through this late-nineties time capsule to get the inside information on the team, the tricks, the tours, the trampolines and the times that you have come to expect from The Bones Brigade Audio Show.
