Growing up in Visalia, meeting the Paez brothers (Richard and Jesse), skating with Tom Knox, shooting photos for Thrasher Magazine, getting assignments from Jake Phelps, shooting that iconic Jason Jessee photo, playing music with Karma Tsocheff, buying a piano off Fausto, creating music with Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes, putting-out his own music, the release of his new book Tule Fog and much more—This is Nik Freitas.

Jason Adams checks in from his studio in San Jose for my first in person interview since the pandemic. Really stoked on this one although my mic had some issues,(but who needs to hear me talk anyways). Listen to Jason talk about growing up in San Jose, meeting Salman Agah and discovering skateboarding, early days of Think and becoming pro, living with Tim Brauch, getting named ‘The Kid’ by Corey OBrien, his epic route 66 trip, Slappy hour and his art, and so much more.
