The Retco in J.L. Day, in J.L. Day, baby.
Chris, you're back at the skate, my fuckers.
You're doing it.
Hell yeah.
It's fucking dope.
Hammers.
Oh, man.
I need to get back on the Stevie Waitloss.
I feel so disgusting right now, trying to film a trick here.
It's about 10 years ago.
I was just a mess on drugs.
I was on a disgusting Elvis program.
I remember going on one of the trade shows and seeing Stevie,
and I hadn't seen him in a bunch of years,
and he came up to me and gave me a hug,
and then he went and grabbed my chest.
He was like, damn, Norako, you got titties.
And I was like, fuck, dude.
And he just left, and we said goodbye,
and then I was just like, fuck, Stevie,
and he just told me he had titties.
And after that, I just was like, fuck,
I got to do something about this.
NJ Skate Shop is actually celebrating 10 years this year.
You know, we went from one tiny little store
in our hometown of Sarriville, New Jersey,
and now we've got him in Hoboken, New Brunswick, and Princeton.
And it's rad, because we have the raddest kids in the state.
I feel like we've got some of the most amazing talent.
Ron Diley is our resident pro.
This kid, we got James Patiniac.
He just made a lot of noise on the internet.
That kid just ripped super good.
Working with Larry Flint was pretty amazing as a young guy.
I mean, my first experience was I flew out there
to find an apartment in December of 1999.
I was getting sued by my former employer,
Skate Magazine, for taking the job at Big Brother.
And they made the mistake of suing Larry Flint, too,
so he was very excited because he likes lawsuits.
Jeff Germain from Big Brother took me over to introduce me
to Larry Flint, and he was like,
this is a guy with all the problems and all the lawsuits.
And I was like, fuck, dude, what a shitty introduction.
And Larry Flint was just like, enjoy your Christmas.
Don't worry, we're going to get those fuckers.
And it was just, it was such a good way to start a new job.
Oh, God.
Taboo was accidentally sent to all the Big Brother subscribers
in 2002.
I think what had happened was there was a guy in the subscriptions
that was disgruntled.
As bummed as a lot of parents were to get Taboo in the mail,
I have to believe that a lot of pervs were super bummed
to get a Skate Magazine in the mail.
That issue just happened to be the gnarliest one
that I remember seeing.
I'm a lady dressed as a non-getting fisted,
and then there was a snake.
I remember there was a snake somehow used in one thing.
It was gnarly.
And the worst thing about the whole experience
was that my mom was on the subscription list for Big Brother.
After this porn show,
I'll probably start doing children's books.
I wrote a children's book about my kids shitting his pants,
and that got rejected.
So I might have to reel it in a little bit,
but I like to do kids' books.
I just like writing about stuff that I love.
So I love my kids.
I love skateboarding.
And I love porn.
So if there's a way I could write about food,
then I'd be set.
I'd be set.
