Private Conversations

The sneaker community has spoken… and apparently we're not the only ones who think the Victor Victor sneaker is OVERHYPED! 😂

This week on Private Conversations, we break down the backlash to our viral Victor Victor take and debate whether sneaker brands are manufacturing hype.

Ian pulls out the legendary Nike Air Yeezy 2 Solar Reds, Larry rocks Jordan 1 Banned Lows that are somehow selling for $75, and we ask the big question: WHY ARE TRAVIS SCOTT JORDAN 1 LOWS STILL SELLING WHILE EVERY OTHER JORDAN 1 IS DEAD?!

Scott breaks down his trade with Chef Greg for the Supreme Dunk SB Mean Greens, we discuss whether a Nike Air Yeezy 2 retro would still sell out, and react to NIGO x J-Hope bringing K-pop fans into sneaker culture.

We also get into older streetwear heads trying to dress young, the upcoming Corteiz Nike Shox, and the possible SGA x Nike Air Force 1 release honoring Virgil Abloh.

**IN THIS EPISODE:**

- We pull a SYLVEON SIR from Pokémon 30th Anniversary packs!

- Ian brings some questionable snacks from Cracker Barrel.

- STOCKX ROAD TO 100 HITS AN $850 KOBE!

Flash Garments is back for Part 2 of his appearance on Private Conversations — but this time we're throwing him into a more traditional episode of the podcast.

We get into the latest sneaker news, talk fashion and streetwear with Flash, hit another Pokémon Pitstop, and continue our StockX Mystery Box journey.

If you watched Part 1 for the stories, Part 2 is Flash Garments experiencing a full episode of Private Conversations.

This week on Private Conversations, we're joined by Flash Garments for Part 1 of a two-part episode.

Flash takes us through his journey as a rapper, artist, and theme song creator, including the story behind creating the official entrance theme for AEW's Swerve Strickland and what it's been like performing it at massive wrestling events around the world — including Wembley Stadium.

We get into his life on the road with AEW, performing alongside and building relationships with artists like Flatbush Zombies and his longtime friend Westside Gunn, and some of the wild stories he's collected traveling around the world through music and wrestling.

Of course, we also talk sneakers, fashion, and where the name Flash Garments comes from, along with his love for clothing and culture.

There were so many stories that we had to split this conversation into two episodes.

PART 2 DROPS NEXT MONDAY — and we'll get back into the usual Private Conversations chaos with Pokémon Pitstop, StockX Mystery Boxes, sneaker news, and a lot more with Flash.

Tonight on Private Conversations, we've got A LOT to get into. We break down the upcoming MoMA x Air Jordan 1 and debate whether the Jordan 1 was really the right silhouette for the collaboration. We also talk about where the crazy Eminem sneaker auction prices finally ended, the upcoming Jordan Black Pack, the Fire Red/White Cement Jordan 4, and the return of the legendary Royal Jordan 1.

Larry pulls up with a pair of shoes he grabbed for ONLY $40 from Salehe's online sale, and after all the Brooks talk lately, we finally put them to the test by each trying to put together a fly outfit wearing our pairs.

Then things get interesting… Larry's mom came back from Scotland and brought us OVER 20 different Scottish foods and snacks to try 😂 We also test the viral McDonald's hash brown + Oreo McFlurry sandwich to see if it's actually worth the hype.
