Best get him back on for a part 2!
All wrapped up last night, great stuff.
The Heathen Crowman
just finished the Div episode, bloody brilliant.
got me reminiscing about daft n rowdy UK jams, heh
Next up, TV’s Marc Churchill!
Splendid bloke with some fantastic stories
Did he talk about when he was in that car crash? So gnarly
*edit haha I clicked the link after I wrote this so obviously, yes he does.
I remember talking to him about it after it happened, I think it was a few months after, will never forget it
It was so hectic to listen to, the detail he goes into is absolutely wild.
That was great, what a beautiful man.
Loved that, I still miss Rad dearly! He’s had quite a few moments of really terrible luck down the years (I’m sure I remember reading of him being beaten up at a skatepark many years ago) but thankfully he’s had some positive opportunities come his way too.
Good pod
Half way through. Churchill is the best
Last 2 episodes have been great man.
If Churchill says he was the inspiration for Craig David in Bo Selecta, I’m buying it
Just finished this one , dipped into it it last night and watched the Milky story then saved the rest for tonight. Spleen story is nuts.
I really need to stop pulling these weird faces for thumbnails…
Good work on this one - very much enjoyed Marc’s episode
P.s. you were correct about Gordon Skrezka - he lived in Oxford for a long time. I lived with him for a year.
Hadn’t heard the name before, he’s good, very good!
Gordon was this good in 1992 (see below - embed is set at his part). Truly a gifted skateboarder.
Context: This is System ‘Joyriders’ made by Jon Robson and released on VHS around the second iirc issue of System Mag (precursor to Sidewalk). The whole thing is worth watching if you’ve not seen it before - Harry Bastard part, Penny footage etc) but any excuse to hype up Skrezka is worth it.
This has been a most pleasant education.
Gordon had a cover of Sidewalk too.
Apologies for rudimentary pics.
Knucks to @buildafire for the SvL scan of Horsley’s photo.
December 2000. I was present for this and have footage somewhere. Fully pissing it down.
Thread derail over (for now)
I had that one! Bet it had something good written on the spine. For reason must’ve missed his name.
