Terrible. Happy.

What happens when a passion for skateboarding meets a life of public service? Join us as we navigate the fascinating journey of John Bogaerts, a former professional skateboarder turned dedicated police officer. Along with his close-knit friends Mike Cossettini and Sean Mussett, known affectionately as Gravel Burns, John takes us back to the birth of the Newcastle skateboarding scene. From the early days at Bar Beach in 1979, where fiberglass quarter pipes first made their mark, to the vibrant community that blossomed from these beginnings, we reminisce about the friendships and experiences that defined this era.

We explore the impact of missions to the USA, and icons like Lee Ralph and Gregor Rankin on Newcastle's skating standards. John shares stories of regular road trips to Mona Vale vert ramp, the sheer excitement of competing at the infamous Ridge Street ramp in Mereweather, and then the iconic Bowl-a-rama events at Bondi many years later against the likes of Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero and Kevin Staab.

This episode is somewhat of a heartfelt exploration of the many facets of a skater's life, including John's transition to law enforcement and the eventual reconnection to his skateboarding roots. John discusses the thrill of premier skate facilities emerging from bold visions and the camaraderie of community-driven events like the Australian Bowl Riding Championships.

There's a full video production this week in which John shares never before seen archival pictures and footage. Worth a watch.

Enjoy,
Shan

Join us as we chat with the charismatic Aaron Brown, whose skateboarding photography defined the Australian scene throughout the 90s and beyond. Discover how Aaron's early skateboarding roots continue to influence his artistic vision, and why he remains devoted to the depth and tonal richness of film photography despite the lure of digital.

Aaron takes us on a nostalgic ride through the skateboarding communities of Sydney's North West, celebrating the camaraderie and creative sparks that shaped his career. He reflects on the evolution of skate photography, contrasting the technical challenges of film with the convenience of digital formats. He reminisces about iconic magazines and photographers who inspired his unique style, how he was able to generate a liveable income from shooting skate photos alone, working for mainstream media companies, and the creative projects he has invested in since.

From capturing legendary skaters like Matt Mumford to winning unexpected photography awards, Aaron’s stories are a testament to the unpredictable yet rewarding nature of life and art.

Shoutout to this week's guest co-host Jim Turvey!

From crafting surfboards in his parents’  West Pennant Hills garage, to becoming a renowned skateboard manufacturer with his brand Omni Boards, Cary Pogson takes us on an extraordinary journey through his life so far. Alongside this week's co-host, and journalist, Jim Turvey, we explore Cary's passion for supporting local skateboarders and his commitment to preserving Australian manufacturing in the face of global competition.

Cary breaks down the craftsmanship involved in skateboard production, emphasising the importance of quality materials and the balance between traditional methods and modern techniques. Cary candidly shares the lessons learned from producing boards for other brands and his journey back to reviving the Omni brand once again.

We reflect on his challenges and triumphs. Cary highlights his ongoing efforts to nurture the next generation of skaters as a key motivation for the vision of Omni.

Cary and the Omni Boards legacy is vast. It is one of dedication to craft, community and culture, a reminder that passion holds more value than profit. Always.

Meet Ty Neilson, a beacon of resilience who has risen above his challenging past to illuminate the path of a better life, and skate shop ownership. In this episode, we unravel his journey from a tumultuous upbringing in a government housing area, to finding solace and community in Skateboarding… and Cricket.

Ty reflects on the importance of local skate shops as community pillars that not only provide the tangible items required to skate, but moreover, the intangible elements; a sense of belonging, inspiration and significant cultural influence.

Ty’s journey is one of perseverance and commitment. He recounts the day he chose to walk away from financial security by quitting his job as a concrete cutter, and spending all his house deposit money to open a skate shop. A small price to pay in order to follow a dream, and not work for someone else’s.

From the emotional ties to skateboarding culture and its role in the Olympics to the societal judgments and stereotypes we all grapple with, this conversation is a heartfelt tribute to personal evolution, and why some things just aren’t worth stressing about.

Mike D. RIP.

Join us as we get to know Amiee Massie, a skateboarder, content creator, and Olympic skateboarding judge. Aimee shares about her captivating journey from growing up in a housing commission area of the Gold Coast, to her current life of global travel, creativity, and developing her personal brand.  Steve Tierney, sits in as co-host this week, and adds another layer to the conversation, making it a robust discussion about passion, resilience, and crafting a unique path in the skateboarding world and life in general.

Aimee's narrative recounts her early days; an unwavering commitment to her dreams and an obvious gender imbalance at the skate park, a place she also found solace from a seemingly confusing home environment as a teenager. Hear about her viral rise on social media, her challenges balancing multiple commitments, and the rigorous physical demands of aging in a craft that demands peak physical performance. From knee dislocations to the exhilaration of being included in skate demos along side her childhood heroes, Amiee's tales offer a raw and inspiring look at the grit required to excel in whatever you choose to do in this life.
