We don’t really need to write much of an introduction for this one. Tim got the elusive Mark Gonzales mic’d up for the fifth episode of the Tim Pod, and this one is so good we decided to turn it into a two parter. What is normally #goodpod, has become #greatpod.
Don’t forget to check out the show highlights, the submitted questions, and the links and mentions from this week’s episode. And, as always, send shit for Tim to talk about next time here: satanandgodarebothdorks@gmail.com.

Im sorry but the Gonz sounded so ignorant on the gay/racist subject.
August 16, 2015 10:29 am
Yeah. Was waiting for the part where it became obvious he was joking, but it never happened. Bummer.

He was making a point. A point you missed.

Wait, who’s the person interviewed here?
Please Mark stop interrupting Tim.
No one wants to hear about your awesome stories.

Damn, I dont want to be harsh because Tims a skater not an interviewer but that was unfortunate. So much interesting stuff that got brought up that Gonz was going to talk about only to be interrupted by Tim talking about himself. So many missed opportunities. Oh well, hopefully practice makes perfect.
