No Lies Just BS

*...formerly titled "Straightrazor" Scott Sterling returns to bullshit, or rather Nick goes to him down at the beach for a great session. Nothin' more to say, just listen to some great stories. And a Shop Talk.

*...formerly titled "Sandwich" Part two where Nick's joined by Sean Crofoot who tattoos at Leviticus in Minneapolis. There's a lot of talk of his early days and a lot of shared friendships and stories throughout. And from Legacy Irons Tattoo in Greensboro, the guys from Old Heavy Hands sit down for some talk and tunes as well. Larry Wayne, Nate Hall and David Self all tattoo down South and perform...

*...formerly titled "Tribalsun" Nick has some killer guests this time in the first of a killer two-parter. He's joined by Sean Crofoot who tattoos at Leviticus in Minneapolis. There's a lot of talk of his early days and a lot of shared friendships and stories throughout. Ol' Crowfoot didn't show up alone, however. Comin' up through the Appalachias from Legacy Irons Tattoo in Greensboro, the guys f...

*...formerly titled "Tequila" Here we go, y'all. It's enjoyin' time for a couple o' hours of our Uncle Benny. Just as entertaining as our gone but not forgotten stepfather Tony or, as Nick refers to him, "Pop." This episode was certainly a treat for Nick & 'Lar to record and for me to edit. You all get to sit down, get drunk and jam with some good ol' boys right here. Nick mentions a song by The S...

*...formerly titled "Bro" Dustin Golden from Deluxe Tattoo out of Chicago, IL comes back to Rock Town and into Nick's office to lay down some fuckin' awesome old school stories of back in the day in Alley Cat, runnin' shit with Nick and even farther back literally growing up in tattoo shops from early, early on. Lots of laughing and great tales to be had in this hot one from two master bullshitter...

*...formerly titled "Labia" Alright patient, loyal listeners: this is the final one with poor audio quality done in the hotel room at the convention. Apparently everything I tried to do to improve the sound while not hanging out in Nick's office backfired because it seems as though the audio on these hotel room recordings got worse and worse. Please give it a try because Nick is talking with Mr. J...

*...formerly titled "Hometown" First things first: I really don't know what is going on with the audio on this one. Nick sat down with Jeff Cribb shortly after talking to Scott Sterling and I'm not sure what changed, but the sound just came out weird here. I did all I could to improve things, so hopefully it won't be too bad. Jeff has a lot of kick ass things to say and the time flies by with Nick...

*...formerly titled "Right" Wow! I barely had to edit this one since there's barely a pause to be had. Enjoy the return of tattoo industry legend Scott Sterling while Nick hangs out with him for a good hour and a half of non-stop bull shit! There's a real quick Shop Talk, too! Enjoy you motherfuckers!!

*...formerly titled "Suit" Great, great friend and bearer of a truly amazing body suit by some of the greats, Steve-O meets up with Nick in Rochester, NY where the Roc City Tattoo Convention is taking place as they record some memories. The brotherhood is apparent and some crazy stories and tattoo discussion come out on this episode. Stick around for another Shop Talk and enjoy! 

*...formerly titled "Son" Sacred visitor from Hot Stuff Tattoo in Asheville, NC: John Henry Gloyne sits in the sweat lodge with Nick for a good solid hour or so and lays down some gems in the spirit of the ways of the bullshit. We had a great time having John Henry sit in at Alley Cat and bang out some killer tattoos leading up to the Rochester Tattoo Convention where we came away with a LOT of po...

*...formerly titled "Gilded" Startin' you off with a long intro from Nick and some great shit he wants y'all to hear. Then a wonderful discussion with good friend Driver. Then another Shop Talk. Straight bullshit. Love it.

*...formerly titled "Slickhead" Thirty episodes. Movin' right along. Well, I finally jump back on here with Nick and we talk a bit more about good ol' Clifton Forge, VA. Continuing to add to the cast of characters, both of the town and the VanNess clan. Lots of great backwoods talk goin' on here. Y'all enjoy. Shop Talk returns! Aw, yeah - Nick, Andrew and Porter bring you a double-sized dose of pr...

*...formerly titled "Lucy" Nick hits the road in this episode! Dave from Absolute Art joins Nick and they travel to New York to sit down with the one and only Chris O'Donnell. Chris and Dave grew up together and had a LOT of catchin' up to do, so when you add Nick's bullshit to that mix you end up with two hours of podcast. This is our first time traveling for NLJBS and it shows. I wish I could ha...

*...formerly titled "Gee" Tony Riccio slides over from Va Beach to hang out at Alley Cat with Nick, Andrew and Porter. Trevor pops in for a bit, too. The bullshit gets real deep real quick on this one and the laughter and stories are overwhelming enough that if you didn't read this, you wouldn't know who the hell Nick is talkin' to until over halfway through this episode. No Shop Talk this week si...

*...formerly titled "Heat" Kick back and relax with some regularly scheduled storytellin' from the boys. Nick sits down with Andrew and pick up a little bit where they left off so many episodes back and then just head all over the place with this one. Porter joins in with a few gems and Trevor finally sits down with us for more than five minutes. Almost the whole crew kickin' it this time. Nothin'...

*...formerly titled "Pyramid" Here it is. You knew it was coming. What you didn't know was how bad you wanted it. Well, you're about to find out. Nick and tattoo legend Timothy Hoyer sit down for two and a half hours and discuss everything you want them to. Andrew Conner provides valuable assistance to this historical conversation.  We love bringing you bullshit like this and we're stoked to relea...

*...formerly titled "Magic" You're just not gonna get great stories like these anywhere else! Hot damn. When you hear these guys reminisce, you know they're the best fuckin' friends and it's awesome. Nick chillin' with Brian Bruno. The master. And they kick it for quite a while and we get the honor of sittin' in on it. Enjoy the hell outta that and stick around for another installment of Shop Talk...

*...formerly titled "Snakeskin" I gotta tell y'all, this episode is long and it's strong and it's all about the stories when Dave "Boysno" heads back up to chill with Nick and Porter again. In case you've ever wondered, this is Josh (Nick's bro, not Brown) writin' these things and man, this episode I felt more like a fan than ever, just listenin' to these guys cut it up. That's why this one is so...

*...formerly titled "Krazy" We've got Keith Harper in the No Lies Just Bullshit studio (actually recorded at Nick's house this time, so the quality dips a bit again, but y'all don't care, right?) this week to talk more about the infamous Absolute Art in Richmond and a bunch of other topics that are guaranteed to entertain. There's even a Shop Talk on time this week. Well, sort of on time now that...

*...formerly titled "Update" Mainly wanted to get this episode out, our second one this week, to give everyone their "Shop Talk" fix since we didn't get it attached to our regularly scheduled Bullshit this week.  So here's that, and just a little bit of catching up from the brothers Swartz. Josh found out he fucked up the email when settin' up the website and comes clean with that info. Still tryi...

*...formerly titled "Tomahawk" This episode takes y'all back to the forested hills of eastern Virginia and down the backroads of wild & wonderful West VA as Nick sits down with Andy Sherman, a long time friend of Alley Cat Tattoo and a great artist to boot. There's a lot of great stories in this one and some wonderful discussion of great music. I think there's plenty of bullshit to be enjoyed in t...

*...formerly titled "Hogtown" More bullshit with another heavy hitter this week as Nick sits down with Josh Brown, currently working out of his place James River Tattoo in Lynchburg, VA. The bullshit gets deep and the hot air is long and drawn out on this one, y'all. A real treat for our twentieth episode. Lots o' call backs in this one to other Richmond stories and artists as the cast of characte...

*...formerly titled "Dubtown" So this episode is a bit long, a bit wild and very much all over the place. I actually considered recording an intro for this one to explain some of what's going on, but then I thought - nah! It's just bullshit! Right? So Nick is talkin' with Sara, our body piercer at Alley Cat. But she's also just an all-out kickass chick who's become a celebrity for all the awesome...

*...formerly titled "Six" Alright. If you made it through last week's adventures and introduction, there's much more in this installment! If you make it to the first hip hop song (and past Nick's bashing of one of my favorite bands, Clutch - PORTER, you should've defended them more fiercely!) then you'll enter a long and detailed discussion of rap history and MC descriptions beyond the norm. If yo...

*...formerly titled "Cherry" Part One of Nick's conversation with our very own Porter. No explanation necessary. And a Shop Talk.
