How did we get here? I had a brief conversation with Chris about potentially co-hosting a month or two ago and we landed on a single name: Harold McGruther. A true icon behind the scenes. Intelligent, polarizing, hilarious, and after 40 years of growing, building, and marketing brands, he's a true wealth of crazy stories, historical facts, and insight. Truly an honor to have McGoo sit down and run through his timeline and scratch the surface of his long history in the BMX industry....
Five hours is a really, really long podcast. I debated on trimming it down or splitting it into two episodes. In the end, I think one massive episode is the answer...
