EP 205: Rowan, Blender, and Panda

A weekly show about all things skateboarding. Hosted by Rick Bata Jr.

Podcast from a guy that spends too much time caring about stuff a grown man shouldn’t.  We actually don’t care about Brandon Biebel and the fact that you spent time lurking him on IG and recounting it is sad, depressing, and embarrassing.  Fall back, this podcast is garbage.

Creepy and cringeworthy

I love this podcast. Great reviews on current skating events and culture.

Great content!

Have to be honest in that this episode was a tough one to get through. Starting off with the good -- I'm finally back on the Thrasher magazine train as I finally received my first issue. X Games Minneapolis went down over the weekend and the world saw the first ever 1260. And finally, I address the latest downward spiral of Bam Margera that also happened over the weekend.  www.nomongo.com Intro/Outro music by Bobb Amidon
