026: Adaptive Tattooing
Books Closed: Tattoos and the Internet Collide, Hosted by Andrew Stortz
11/11/19 • 68 min
This episode of the BOOKS CLOSED Podcast features guest co-host, Bradley Farrell, and tattooer, Zack Hunter "Southpaw."
I found a handful of parallels between these two conversations, and this episode weaves the two together to tell a larger story.
Bradley was a guest on the show last season as a retired tattooer, and his since started tattooing again. We catch up about what it's like to blow the dust of his tattoo machines and how hard it is to make a tattoo happen.
Zack shares the details of a serious car accident he was in at the age of 19, and how he fought to reclaim his life.
