Jason Lee | The Nine Club With Chris Roberts - Episode 221

[@brandonfoley4829]

When Lee gets asked about skateboarding in interviews it’s always quick and then they move on to movie stuff. 3+ hours of him talking skating was absolutely amazing. I need 3 more hours of this.

[@Saltymeatt]

Facts. This interview was an experience

[@Xcoolydiego]

It's just different people man these guys know about skateboarding while cinema it's completely different

[@bmcshane80]

The Studios pay them what they do to PROMOTE the Films more than for the Acting itself. They dont want to pay someone to fly around the world for months leading up the release of a movie, staying in High End hotels, paying for security, Riders etc for them to talk about SkateBoarding and NOT the film they are supposed to be promoting. That makes this SOOOO much more special. To see him talk about Skate boarding like you KNOW he's always wanted to is an absolute JOY! Been a fan of Jason Since MallRats, Knew he was a Pro Skater but was bit before my time, and My Name Is Earl is STILL one my favourite shows of all time Killer episode boys Big Love from Australia!

[@dougman23]

He doesn't think he has anything to say about skating...but he has so much to say. And i would listen to the bible if he read it...just makes everything seem exciting

[@poeticdisaster7500]

I took a bunch of lsd in the 90s and went into a psychosis , i got put in a mental ward. My mom and dad would sneak me candy in...lol and bring me thrasher or transworld or bigbro every visit she was getting issues from an old 1st edition book store ,that had a stack of skate mags. 2 bucks a piece . I read about jason in those. Then , mallrats the movie came out...an then m.n.i. earl tv show. Its pretty freekin rad! God bless him i cant wait to see more movies or shows..with lee or skating with othrr legends like steve cab. Duane peters The whole group of old schoolers!

[@tommy1138]

I've never seen Jason so excited during an interview, not even with Kevin Smith. You can tell that when he's hanging out with fellow skaters he's in his comfort zone.

[@Damoforce]

His passion for skating is next to none!

[@aubreypolk9227]

They say you should never meet your heroes, but in my experience meeting Jason Lee on set was a moment I'll never forget. So humble and kind, he remembered my name and everyone else's throughout the shoot and he even ate with us on lunch break. I picked his brain a little about blind and stereo but didnt want to be that guy, yet he was totally open to talking skating with me (no one else knew what we were talking about). he was super hyped on Yoshi Tenenbaum who was just coming up. Thanks for being an all around awesome dude Jason.

[@zhdrums3872]

Jason Lee is such a humble legend. Grew up watching him in mallrats and clerks and found out he skated later on made me appreciate him so much more. Especially after seeing his skating style. This was awesome.

[@oscaryeager5030]

"Skateboarding is sacred ground." So true man, even if you stop skating all together you're still a skater. It forever changes the way you view the world.

[@soydave1988]

100%, and people who don't/have never skated will never fully understand. My view of the world is completely different after skating for this many years...I'm so glad I found skateboarding. Some of the most genuinely rad and cool people I've ever met, I met through skateboarding

[@theSASTA]

"Once you´re a skater - you´ll always be a skater" - so true. Im turning 45 this year, had to end my 15 years of skating due to knee injuries and such when I was 30 and still I cannot get that "look for spots" out of my head. I´m still always on the lookout for ledges, stairs, rails and such. Even after 15 years of NOT skating anymore (cant believe its that long tbh) Nobody will ever understand this who never skated.

This is surreal for me. I skated with Jason back in the day and was fortunate enough to skate with Gonz and Natas in Balboa a couple times. Jason talking about meeting Gonz hit so close to home because the three of us skated and then drove up to Jerry’s Deli right around that time. I was like “Mark Gonzales is in my car!!!” I still believe that was the beginning of Jay getting into show biz. Awesome interview!!! Thank you.

[@tip-ct.v.9957]

Jason's energy is just awesome, real talk. You can hear the excitement he still has for skateboarding, I was genuinely smiling the whole time listening 😁 Hands down one of the top episodes in my book 💯

@@philipdahl8767 I believe it was the Tony Hawk graphic like the one hanging on the wall of this episode m, definitely was popsicle shape because it was my first modern shape but i'm not 100% sure. It was used (supposedly by Jason Lee because I bought it off his supposed cousin Boyd at school). Cool if it was true, either way I was stoked I got it cheap haha.

[@rkulla]

@Mac Fleming This was at Spring View but I don't remember his last name. That name sounds vaguely right. I remember it not being Lee. It's possible he didn't go to my school and that we just met up on the streets. I vaguely remember going to his house in HB. I also think he wore Hawaiin shirts and shorts a lot if that rings a bell, haha. (the weird things we remember)

I love the discussion about once a skater, always a skater. I haven't skated in years. I'm a lawyer and a dad now (not that that means I can't also skate...I'm just at a different part of my life). But I still watch every new Thrasher video part coming out. And I still have dreams about not quite being able to frontside flip (was my favorite looking trick but could never quite do them).

[@billclinton3010]

Skaters will never look to a handrail or a set of stairs like everybody else. No matter if you still have a board setup or not.

One wheel! Stoke machine bro 😎 get one and feel 17 again! I got one about a year ago and it gives me a glimpse of youthful fun again. My body is wrecked from skateboarding so it’s a nice adult alternative.

[@GVilleAnarcho]

I certainly dont skate that much. But I need to keep a board around cause I don't stop having dreams about it. Sometimes I just NEED to hop on it, even if its just to check the mailbox. And i've definitely never stopped watching skate vids. Its true, once you get it in you, it never leaves.

Never have I heard Crob / Kelly / Jeron talk so much and everyone interrupting and being so insanely excited. Jason Lee has them frazzled and rightfully so, fucking epic. Been looking forward to this one for a looooooooong time. Good stuff gentleman.

[@leavesofgrass92]

[@SecretCaskets]

You break anything yet?

[@thehumblecrab6487]

They touch on the insane progression of street skating between 1986 and 1991 at about an hour into the interview. I started skating right around '86, and witnessing the progression of street skating in those five years was really amazing. When you watch footage from a street contest from 1985 compared to what skaters like Lee, Gonz and Natas were doing in contests in 1988 is just nuts. There should be a full-length documentary about this era. The story here that Lee tells about Gonz driving to his house to see the 360 flip is so great. A full documentary filled with little stories like this would be killer.

[@sk8academy241]

Lee talking about a Gons pavin the way to skaters, Guy Mariano's talent from God, Koston's Switch 3 flip a piramid in 93', Kareem's switch shuvits. This is an amazing podcast!

Sooo glad that I spent the time with this. Just a super cool laid back chat about the great times. I turn 50 this year but skating has been a huge part of life since I was around 8 or 9 - I don’t get to ride as much these days but even a cruise and a few gentle pops brings the smile. I’m sure I had a few posters of Jason from old editions of Read and Destroy magazine or copies of Thrasher that we used to get when record stores used them to protect the vinyl during import into the UK.

I haven't been on a board in 23 years but, still love that time in my life and respect the hell outta skateboarding in all of it's facets. The end of the episode struck a cord with me. I bought my first skateboard at Stratosphere Skate Shop in Little 5 back in 94'. It was a Stereo deck with Venture trucks. It was eye opening for a teenager coming down from the Burbs. A few years later we'd skate downtown ATL Bellsouth, Marta stations, Federal building, 40 yd etc. Truly a magical time in my life. Great to the see the spirit of skateboarding alive and better than ever. I still can't look at things and not think about skating them even after all these years. I have a skateboarders mindset in life and it's bleed over into my current passion of fly fishing. Keep em coming boys.

As a kid born in the 80`s Jason was one of those "I wish I was like this dude" types, one night growing up I was watching TV late at night and stumbled upon the first Clerks movie and I instantly fell in love with the humor and all the references to things I loved (Star wars,movies and comics) and I started chasing down more more Kevin Smith flix, when I finally found Mall rats some time later and found my fav skater having a role in that movie I was shocked, been such a joy following Jason since the 90`s going from skating to movie,TV roles,voice acting,games and photography. The amount of influence Jason has had in me and my friends life is outrageous. Thank you Jason, for being an inspiration to me and countless people out there that have loved any of the many careers you`ve flourished in throughout the years.

I've been looking forward to this one. Grew up skating with Jason. He was always one to push a session and make it fun. One of the funniest guys ever.

[@villiantwo]

how could you not love this guy? .. we need a part 2

[@icychill105]

Watched him on my name is earl and then my skater friends introduced me to his skate parts. Earl Hickey doing a tre-flip blew my mind and ive been in love with his career ever since.

[@brokenoutline]

The cursive signature on the tongue was such a standout move. I’d rock them today for sure.

[@jmmone]

I had those in some ugly green, only skate shoe I really ever skated in. I was a shelltoe guy.

i love how hard and durable the soles were.

[@connerpenuel4041]

This is definitely my favorite episode! You’ve gotta have him back one day!🙏🏼

[@stanleykubik1778]

the level of love and knowledge he has for skateboarding is really heartwarming, just brings a smile to my face.

[@IanMcGarr]

Wow Jason Lee is such a fantastic person. He's really lovely and has great stories. Love this episode.

[@zackwinn9393]

3 hours of Jason Lee and I grew up in HB. Best day ever

[@noediaz2392]

Best episode yet, the information the way they all blended in conversation lee was loving it like he was part of the crew since day 1. I Love skateboarding...

[@mike.barton]

Best episode ever , Jason was my favorite skater growing up. Thanx ✌

[@michaelbrown5768]

Best interview I've ever seen in my 41 years if life! I started skating in high school at the age of 15 in 1995, and I loved every minute of it! I skated for 6 years and THIS interview hit me with so much nostalgia. What I wouldn't give to be able to talk about skateboarding again with my old skate friends 🥲. Also, Jason Lee is a champ! I've never seen an entire interview in which a person would be so kind in his admiration and respect for his friends. Truly a humble and great guy! You could see and feel the emotion when he spoke of them.

[@Yungbeck]

"It's hard to walk down memory lane, when you need a cane...fuck me" lmaoo so many gems. Great, great interview. You could tell Jason loved it and was in his true element.

[@brendanlewis6250]

Goosebumps hearing Jason talk about how good Hosoi was....the wheels spinning!

[@chrishendricks4613]

I would pay serious money to go back in time and see hosoi rip up a pool or vert ramp or Tom Penny destroy a mini ramp..

[@rmhfpv9225]

It's the pros over 40 that are bringing the funness to skating right now. I'm waiting for the 40 plus guys to form a team and just kill it. Think about who's over 40 and imagine a full length video of fun slappy street skating with realistic lands and tricks. it would be more inspiring than anything out for years.

[@hotcoffeebreath]

Right! chomp on this had that vibe. Was a very fun and memorable video

[@AlexG1020]

Everyone now skates like a Robot. But over 40 are still killing it Elkington is 44 and still switch FS flipping 12 stairs

@@AlexG1020 Chico Brenes has more style today than he did at his EMB prime youth. You don't need to know more than 3 tricks... just do them with style.

Been riding the wooden toys since 87 so many memories and it was all reflected and echoed today by what you guys are saying thanks for great interview and keep up the good work.

[@patrickmena1241]

What an amazing episode. One of my favorite skaters of all time. You can tell he’s a true skater for the love of skating. Sounds like a dude who was never sponsored. Thanks guys !!!

[@KHLIv]

Saw the whole podcast!! Loved it! It would be really cool to bring back Jason Lee and bring Gonz for the same podcast!! That would be legendary
