Sam DeAngelis: The SLDean Interview

At a time when I was going through a personal dark period without a pair of blades to call my own, Sam reached out to me offering me blades not even knowing me all that well. That is a testimony to his generous character. While working on this interview I learned a lot about Sam DeAngelis through his detailed answers making this one of my favorite interviews that I have ever done for ShutupandSKATE. He definitely deserves all the exposure that is coming his way and I would like to wish him the best on his current trip to Africa with the Spine Africa Project.

I woke up to a beautiful NYC day filled with sunshine, light clouds and most importantly no humidity! So, once my son woke up I took him out for a day of play with his skates. We ended up going to Coleman Skatepark and here are a baker’s dozen worth of pics chronicling our day.

Forget Blading…Here’s Some Dating Advice From My Son Brian Jr.

My son made his Youtube debut on the Dave & Ethan Online Comedy Show. They asked him advice about women and he gave answers that only a 4 year old can. He started a movement with a simple suggestion…”The Slide” haha. The whole video is pretty funny so enjoy.
