  • ALEX CORPORAN

    ALEX CORPORAN
    Jul 4 2025
    Alex Corporan is the director of the new documentary Empire Skate, which chronicles the rise of Supreme and the evolution of downtown New York skate culture. It was a movement that reshaped streetwear, art, and youth identity around the world. Alex wasn’t just there to witness it — he helped build it. To celebrate the release of the film on ESPN, we’re bringing back this special encore episode, originally recorded before the documentary’s debut. From 1996 to 2004, Alex was the store manager of the original Supreme on Lafayette Street — a space that became ground zero for a cultural revolution. In this conversation, he shares wild behind-the-scenes stories from the shop’s legendary back room, and gives a firsthand account of Supreme’s early days, its community, and its unexpected rise to global icon status. We also dive into his close friendship with the late, great Jake Burton — founder of Burton Snowboards — and talk about the 10th anniversary edition of FULL BLEED, Alex’s iconic photography book celebrating NYC skateboarding.

    Devendra Banhart is a prolific artist and musician who has earned a reputation for his genre-defying sound. Drawing from an incredibly diverse range of influences, he’s released 11 studio albums and cultivated a loyal fanbase spanning from Santiago to Silverlake. In this episode we sit down for a chat with this Texas-born, Venezuela-raised, and San Francisco educated singer about psilocybin mushroom trips, sneaking backstage at a Guns and Roses show in South America as a teenager, and how skateboarding videos from the 80’s influenced his musical tastes.

  • SELEMA MASEKELA

    SELEMA MASEKELA
    Jun 6 2025
    Selema Masekela is a uniquely versatile sports commentator whose career spans everything from surfing and skateboarding to the NBA, soccer, and Formula One. As a teenager growing up in a predominantly white beach town in Southern California, he was one of the few Black surfers in the water. That meant navigating everything from subtle bias to outright racism. While he refused to let that stop him from pursuing the sport he loved, the absence of others who looked like him left a lasting impression. In this episode, we discuss his essay in the new book Surfer Stories, where he reflects on South African surfer Mikey February’s historic qualification for the professional tour. For Selema, the moment wasn’t just significant—it was deeply personal. His father, legendary jazz musician Hugh Masekela, was exiled from South Africa during apartheid. So seeing a Black South African competing on surfing’s biggest stage brought decades of struggle and resilience full circle. We also discuss how someone goes from the surf break to the broadcast booth to build one of the most diverse résumés in sports media, and why curiosity has been one of his greatest strengths. Selema also shares some of his biggest on-air blunders—and what they taught him. Have any comments, feedback or suggestions for upcoming guests? We'd love to hear from you.
