This week’s guest, Ricki “The Dude” Bedenbaugh sits in for a 2-hour bonanza podcast to kick off December talking Ryan Sheckler’s Costco kickflip, Bachinsky’s El Toro kickflip (just to name a couple of epic moments Ricki filmed). Nerd out as we discuss timelapse’s, super slow-mo, film vs video, Elvis Presley vs Triple Six Mafia, the one-shot filming technique, the origin story of his nickname "The Dude", girls with four wheels on each foot, working for Element, being the old guy while the young ones are raging, break dancing at weddings, Coffee and Curbs, and the art of shitting your pants. Lots to digest in this one and we even have cameos from our dogs, Honey Bee and Alfredo.
