When I first saw Eric Dressen I was a little star struck and kind of intimidated, and this was actually pretty recently. I was nervous to approach him, even though I only wanted to tell him he was someone who had been a big influence on me. But before I could get to that, he told me he liked my show and that the Anthony Pappalardo episode was his favourite. That tripped me out, because usually the veteran pro skaters I meet aren’t as plugged into younger skaters and whatever new media is coming out.
My immediate reaction was, “Do you want to do an episode?”
