Welcome back, Brigadeers! Today, we're in the studio to dig deep into Mike Vallely's Y2K documentary, Sponsored- and joining us once again is Mike's former Black Label and Street Plant teammate, good friend, and touring partner Kristian Svitak! At just over 30 minutes, Sponsored is an embryonic foray into the world of skate documentaries that covers Mike's life in skating up to that point- a mere blip on the radar of the career we know today- and shows us some of the earliest glimpses of footage from his early skateboarding years, including some incredible public access cable and TV commercial appearances and (to that point) never seen b-roll from his days filming for Public Domain, and much more. What are you waiting for? Sprint through the graveyard and join us- shall you?

Larry and Matt are back in the deep end to bring you another thrilling installment of The Bones Brigade Audio Show’s Sk8 TV Files! This time around we are joined in the studio by our good friend (and returning guest) Skate Talk Bob to discuss Episode 4 of everyone’s favorite Nickelodeon classic- “the only skateboarding show made by skaters, for skaters”, as it was known. This one is packed to the proverbial gills with the good stuff, including interviews with Powell stalwarts Ray Barbee and Lori Rigsbee, a look at the Transworld Skateboarding office in 1990 with the legendary Grant Brittain, a bowl-side chat in a blown out backyard with Tony Alva, and much more. Are ramps just a hobby? Are pools serious business? There’s only one way to find out- join us, shall you?

The BBAS crew, along with our good friend Jim Fitzpatrick, are back in the studio this week to delve headfirst into the short, sweet and mostly unknown Powell Peralta video, Camp Motherhood! Developed primarily as a tradeshow video- promotional material to support Powell’s 1989 sales and marketing initiatives- Camp Motherhood is an interesting time capsule, inadvertently bridging the gap between where Public Domain left off and Ban This started, and marking an infamous era for the ‘Brigade that saw the introduction of the notorious Field Manual, the exit of Mike Vallely, and numerous other changes beginning to manifest under the surface. As always, Fitz breaks it all down with more detail and behind-the-scenes knowledge than you could ever reasonably expect. You have your marching orders, private- so join us, shall you?

Here we are, ringing in 40 years of the McTwist; perhaps the first trick in skateboarding history to achieve “household name” status. With the possible exception of the 900, is there a single skateboarding trick more legendary? A single maneuver that has been requested more by crowds of delirious, sunburnt demo-goers? We don’t think so- and joining us here in the BBAS studio to back up this inarguable claim is renowned skate historian, author, artist, and Berlin Skateboard Museum curator Jürgen Blümlein! We talked with Jürgen about his involvement in the McTwist’s 40th anniversary celebration, his collaboration with Mike McGill and Vans on their upcoming limited-edition commemorative Sk8-Hi colorway, and we get deep into the trick’s rich four-decade history all the way back to that fateful evening at the Swedish summer camp in 1984. McTwist and shout? Wipe out all over the place, baby… and join us, shall you?

Greetings, skateboard cultists, and welcome back to Issue #13 of the Intelligence Report! To say we’re excited for this one is an understatement, because joining us in the BBAS studio for an epic chat is none other than Eric Sanderson himself! An iconic member of the Bones Brigade during their 80’s heyday, Eric was prominently featured in nearly all of the most revered Powell Peralta videos, participated in innumerable summer tours, and is of course one of the four riders that made up Public Domain’s legendary Rubber Boys crew- and that’s just scratching the surface. We get into the weeds with Eric on his early days in skateboarding, getting sponsored, his long and dedicated career at Powell, filming for all the classic videos, and everything in between. Do we now observe the rights of passage of a newly emerging civilization? There’s only one way to find out… join us- shall you?

If you’ve listened this far, you surely know by now that we here at The Bones Brigade Audio Show have a borderline-unhealthy obsession with uncovering the smallest bits of minutiae available for anything and everything to do with the Powell Peralta videos. We assumed we were alone in this sickness, wandering the wastelands in search of forgotten parking lots and slabs of concrete once boardslid by the Rib Bones of giants. So, imagine our surprise when we came across the meticulously-crafted 40th Anniversary Bones Brigade Video Show Filming Locations video on the 80’s Life YouTube channel! We had no choice but to reach out to its creator- Kurt Crucial- and an instant bond of skateboard nerddom was formed. A true kindred spirit, Kurt joined us in the studio to take us through his life in skateboarding, his process of making his incredible filming location videos, and how he was able to find so many of these hallowed skate spots last visited by Lance Mountain and Stacy Peralta some four decades ago. This is an episode you will definitely not want to miss, so gas up the Volvo and join us- shall you?

We interrupt this regularly scheduled two-week break to bring you a surprise episode of The Bones Brigade Audio Show! This past weekend, Powell Peralta unleashed Andy Anderson’s brand new “Crazy Wisdom” onto the world to great (and well-deserved) fanfare.

Come along as we discuss Andy’s incredible contributions to the world of creative skateboarding and our favorite parts of this 12-minute masterpiece. It's a quick video and a quick episode- but when the iron is hot, the BBAS crew strikes! Darkslide on over to your favorite podcast platform and join us, shall you?

Welcome back to the show! For this, the 12th issue of the BBAS Intelligence Report, we’re absolutely honored to be joined in the studio by none other than the legendary Sean Cliver! Picked out of a pool of more than 600 applicants to answer a 1988 Powell Peralta “artist wanted” ad, Sean packed his bags for a one-way trip to California where he spent three years creating some of the most revered graphics in the company’s history, ably filling the impossibly large shoes of the recently-retired VCJ before moving on to a storied career as an artist, author, TV and movie producer, and eventual skateboard company owner. In addition to taking us through the whole story of his time at Powell HQ from beginning to end- leaving no stone unturned- we discussed nearly every graphic Sean designed for the ‘Brigade during his stint at the drawing table, and tons more. It’s almost time for this week’s design review- so join us, shall you?
