Holiday season is in full swing. This week we got Thanksgiving, Black Friday, small business Saturday and... Mike Gigliotti. Mike owns and runs the Lotties skateshop in LA and has been skating and doing art most of his life. He was instrumental in helping out all the skateshops with a tshirt campaign when the pandemic first struck. This episode is dedicated to all skate shops world wide and has cameos from some friends of the show such as Trent from Cowtown, Matt D from DLXSF, Ryen from Atlas, Thomas Taylor from Stratosphere, Dandy from 510, Noah from Filter,  Justin from Shrunken Head and our ender with an "after-black hammer'd" appearance from the homie in Greenville North Carolina, Billy Roban. Thanks to everyone that helped out with this episode and PLEASE—if you have to order online, do it from a skateshop.
