As someone who constantly preaches about preserving physical media, I fucking love this. I wish I had more money and space to do the same thing. Also, I’m glad to be able to put a face to the Secret Tape name now.
I know the whole idea of this video is preserving physical skateboarding history. But I tell you what, if he decided to create a “skateflix” with all those hard drives I would pay a monthly sub. Would have to be pretty under the table but having all those movies at the click of a button. Damn that would be the best hype before a skate.
I sold off most of my skate video collection when I quit skating after highschool but Brendan has been critical to re-acquiring my skate video hoard. Literally doing the lords work.
I wrote a bot for the IRC channel he mentioned when I was 16, which made me learn Python. Now I'm 37 and have been a software engineer for 15 years and I still skate!
Doing the lords work. I remember when I got back into skating after 17 or 18 years and tried to watch Rodney Mullen Vs. Daewon Song 1 on youtube and "Help" was cut out and I was totally disgusted. I wish I still had all my tapes. This guy probably has my copies of Kings of Promotion and the XZY video lol
Thank you for making him do multiple kickflips. He’s one of the best to do them! Also, a great dude to buy from. I gave him a dm one night looking for the tantum dist video “credo”. “Yeah I have it and would be hyped for you to own it”. We negotiated a price which was more than fair and I got a video that I could not get anywhere.
He's right about the Photosynthesis Vice ownership and how bummed I was that Mike Rucszyk's That's Life part was blocked by Fox. Great job by everyone here
It’s funny to see him in a casino of all places in this because ironically I thought about parting ways with some skate videos to sell to him because I had blew all my money gambling and felt like some of the skate videos I have were the only thing of value I could get any quick money for lol glad I never did sell any though. Also kinda crazy because I’m trying to get a few DVDs signed tomorrow at a demo haha.

If I had to burglarize someone's house, it'd definitely be Brendan's.
15 seconds in and already top notch content. Thanks VP

This was too damn sick. Thank you
I’m one of those God Save the Label purchases! It was Chris Troys part for me
this man once accidentally gave me a very high value DVD when I ordered another one and I am forever grateful lol
This dude is a skate nerd and it's so sick, there needs to be a protective dome around his house.
My collection is modest but I've got Video Days and Yeah Right. Those alone make me so happy seeing on the shelf

You're my Hero !!

Brendan, I am in PA as well closer to philly. Not sure but I may have some old skate / VHS / dvds to add to your collection.

What’s the first tune in this video? It’s doing my head in trying to remember!
Tortoise “ten day interval”
@@felipenarvaez1737I actually meant the one after, my bad. But thanks anyway!
@@felipenarvaez1737 Remembered… it’s Cymande - Crawshay
@@tactical1981 Danny Renaud’s Mosaic part! So good! The first one is from Photosynthesis
Also….. I’m lookin for a video: Union wheels: the games they play? Is that what it’s called? Paying top price
How much you willing to spend? 🤔
hell yeah shout out IRC channel
Wait Jason Dill’s Photosynthesis is owned by vice? Lol
I have that same Zero bin laden board still in the plastic.
Could probably put some of those videos up on youtube and add a nice chunk of change to your business homie.
Where is he selling these videos? A link on the description would’ve been helpful
TBH you are right fam, we have updated the description.
@@villagepsychic9750 All good, only took me a little Googling! Really enjoyed the piece 👍🏽
Everyone should have a copy of Black Cat.
I’ll buy a sub zero real life vhs
Does he have a CZcams channel that he’s uploading all of the videos?
Does he have a real world job or can he live off this? Would be so rad if he could buy I can't imagine
We do wanna see Ben Skrzypek’s part
Rad
Thumbs up if you were on IRC.
