Episode 107 with Josh Kalis, professional skateboarder from Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Together we discussed his life and career, from picking up his first board in the late 80’s, crossing paths in the early 90’s with a young Jamie Thomas in Dallas, Texas who invited him to California and offered him a spot on the Toy Machine team, getting on Alien Workshop and DC Shoes and settling down in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where he and Stevie Williams teamed up to push further the concept of plaza skating at the already iconic Love Park spot, joining Stevie on DGK after 13 years on the workshop, moving back with his family to Grand Rapids where he built his own indoor park as well as his clothing brand “Silak” and much more through surprise questions from friends of his.
