Skateboarder And Podcast

The latest 'Skateboarder And...' is with someone who likes to refer to themselves as a content provider, but we think that’s selling his impact a little short.

To prove it, this episode has it all; street art, Led Zeppelin, skate parks, Tony Alva, Natas, The Mighty Boosh, music videos, skateable art exhibitions, chewing gum commercials (yes you read that right), the Berlin Wall, VANS colabs and so much more. It is of course skateboarder, artist and content provider… Mr. Dave the Chimp.
