<p>Welcome back! For this week’s episode, we talked to one of Long Island’s finest exports, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/shmike_lent/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Mike Lent</a>. Throughout the 2000s and 2010s Mike was crucial to the construction and upkeep of a couple of Long Island DIY spots - the infamous Pizza Palace and a personal favorite, the Brentwood DIY. Mike was pro for Northern Co and his footage can be seen in bunch of iconic New York videos - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwmsrqPk8t4&list=RDMwmsrqPk8t4&start_radio=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Grapevine</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZpY90WyuuA&list=RDUZpY90WyuuA&start_radio=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Hot Plate</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zvq0_uAe7RY" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Cutting Room Floor</a>, to name a few. </p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we grill Mike on what goes into making a DIY and DIY etiquette, the Long Island skate scene while he was coming up, and fatherhood.
