Nine Club

this is gold.
he’s a brilliant story-teller - his ghetto snacks column in BB was never dull.
him being hyped to be on there is a plus too

Grabbed a Palace x Aesthetics Welsh board. Stoked to have a Welsh board through a British company.

First Nine Club I’ve watched that I can remember, and fuck me Chris Roberts is still so stupid.

“It wasn’t called the Gonz Gap then [in 1993] but it was after that!”

Not asking much from him to know that what’s possibly the most famous gap in skateboarding wasn’t named in 1993.

At this point it’s inexcusable.
Revelling in being culturally clueless is value-free

He doesn’t even try….does he care? Probably not.

Put Clyde on Spotify last night and woke up at many random points. Watching tonight on YouTube and a great guest. Should really dip into his podcasts.

The getting on Vision story is gold.

I thought he handled the EMB story really well. A good take.

Guesses for episode 300? Presumably they’ll try to do something special…

All the people they really want to do it, ain’t going to do it: Rick and Meg for example.
I reckon it’ll be a double or multiple episode.

No doubt. Or interviewing each other or something.

Fuck it, a fiver on Heath.

Maaaan Heath has been in the background of at least two episodes. Feel like if it was gonna happen it would’ve happened. Plus if he does go on it it’s going to be Crob talking about things that may have happened and Heath just saying yeah or nah

Jim Thiebaud is a guest they always wanted in the early days.

The last guest my first reaction was ‘who is this fucking clown’

never heard of him

Game play? Minimising viewer disappointment when the episode 300 guest ends up not being someone of the stature or level of interest of say Jim T, Rick and Meg, Rodney or Rocco and is instead a double episode with Joey Brezinski and Paul Hart. Just a guess.

It’s not Rocco.

I think they mentioned that they met up over a meal and had an off the record chat with a ton of good stories. Then they got the, ‘nah, I’m not coming on’, from him.

If they were to get a quality guest it could be Natas, I suppose. Poor dude’s probably fed up with walking past the Nine Club guys at the Venice curbs every time he wants to have a stroll on the beach and could think that going on might put an end to the relentless Partridge x Dan style scenario.

Probably not though.

It feels like the better and the more interesting a possible guest could be, the least Chris Roberts will know about them.

These people don’t need to promote anything or need their stories out there so there is no need to subject themselves to Chris’ tiresome rigmarole. If I was an industry bigwig i’d certainly not want to be in that chair with those dead cells firing nonsense at me.
