Hi Friends! Thank you to those who have given us valuable feedback, we absolutely love hearing from you listeners. Today's episode is our second episode, and last, of the "Shop Talk" series. We expected you all to love Christina and this series just as much as our "Big Business" series with Michelle (Estrojen), but we never expected the amount of engagement and discussion we are receiving and we love it! This episode is all about the technical ideas of Shop Talk and we go over some of the most asked questions by skaters. We love you and good brunch!

Hey friends! In this episode, we discuss some corrections from the last episode and finally address what makes US queer. We hope you find the topic relatable and are excited about our *very, very late* episode. Individuality and self-expression are very evident in the skate community, so we address some of those examples and why the community is heading in the wrong direction these days.

Join Ashleigh and Trey in episode 8 of Eskate from Reality! We're so excited to introduce you to our *virtual* guest star this week, Maddie Eaton (@punkygirlsk8s). In this episode, we discuss how skating helps us balance our physical and mental health. Maddie explains her battle with a skin excoriation disorder (a disorder related to OCD that causes someone to habitually pick at their skin). With such a disorder, her physical appearance changed and her insecurity made it hard to be in public without questioning judgment. However, with skating in her life, she was able to come out about her battle and show her true color behind the scars. As always, good brunch!

Happy belated Valentine's day! We love you and you can be OUR Valentine if you were alone this weekend. Join Ashleigh and Trey in episode 7 of Eskate from Reality! We're so excited to introduce you to our *virtual* guest star this week,  Sarah Cozzens (@sarahcozz). In this episode, we discuss the mingling of skating and art and how small businesses and creators have thrived in the skate community. We definitely learned so much from Sarah and hope you get inspired to create and invent by listening to her story. We love hearing skater stories, but we love it even more when skating and other hobbies or skills join together and we're able to learn and support each other in different areas in life! P.S. Did you notice our new logo?! It's literally the cutest thing we've seen, all thanks to our guest star @sarahcozz for producing this masterpiece for us. Thank you Sarah!

Hi Shredders! We're excited for another episode of Eskate from Reality. We are in the works on quite a few episodes with many different guest stars that just require a bit more time. So with that being said, we want to bring another episode in the meantime for you to binge on. This episode, Ashleigh and Trey will be talking about their favorite skaters, tutorials and teachers, and some interesting skate stories. This episode is really meant to be a chill, no rules, type episode where we (of course, your favorite voices to hear over and over again) can talk about anything and everything going on lately. Our next episode is going to be really insightful and such a fun topic, so we wanted to bring something relaxing and entertaining to the table for the time being. We hope you enjoy, and good brunch!
