As someone who constantly preaches about preserving physical media, I fucking love this. I wish I had more money and space to do the same thing. Also, I’m glad to be able to put a face to the Secret Tape name now.

I wrote a bot for the IRC channel he mentioned when I was 16, which made me learn Python. Now I'm 37 and have been a software engineer for 15 years and I still skate!

If I had to burglarize someone's house, it'd definitely be Brendan's.

15 seconds in and already top notch content. Thanks VP

I sold off most of my skate video collection when I quit skating after highschool but Brendan has been critical to re-acquiring my skate video hoard. Literally doing the lords work.

Had no idea the secret tape could skate this good

I've never seen a dude's personality so well mirrored by his skating style. I fuckin' love this dude LMAO

I know the whole idea of this video is preserving physical skateboarding history. But I tell you what, if he decided to create a “skateflix” with all those hard drives I would pay a monthly sub. Would have to be pretty under the table but having all those movies at the click of a button. Damn that would be the best hype before a skate.

patreon could maybe work?

this man is doing gods work thank you for your service we salute u

whole vid is a nice little summertime treat

black cat was and still is one of my favorites!!!

Brendan was a huge help the Six Stair archive dept. Didn't know he ripped so hard!

dude this is so fucking siick and the work he's doing is soo fucking important

I love this Channel, thank you guys

who is from vancouver BC area and remembers the whiskey videos? wish I still had those VHS now

So sick, I’m literally about to buy the sealed copy of baker 3 vhs tape now. Thanks for showing me this.

I’m one of those God Save the Label purchases! It was Chris Troys part for me

This dude is a skate nerd and it's so sick, there needs to be a protective dome around his house.

this man once accidentally gave me a very high value DVD when I ordered another one and I am forever grateful lol

Doing the lords work. I remember when I got back into skating after 17 or 18 years and tried to watch Rodney Mullen Vs. Daewon Song 1 on youtube and "Help" was cut out and I was totally disgusted. I wish I still had all my tapes. This guy probably has my copies of Kings of Promotion and the XZY video lol

so fun, love this. also the snippets of music from classic parts was perfect

This was such a treat to watch. Secret Tape is the shit!

Thank you for making him do multiple kickflips. He’s one of the best to do them! Also, a great dude to buy from. I gave him a dm one night looking for the tantum dist video “credo”. “Yeah I have it and would be hyped for you to own it”. We negotiated a price which was more than fair and I got a video that I could not get anywhere.

this coulda been a hour long

Shoutout the mention of IRC. What a fucking throwback

He's right about the Photosynthesis Vice ownership and how bummed I was that Mike Rucszyk's That's Life part was blocked by Fox. Great job by everyone here

Men will collect ANYTHING.

Good point. I should buy Black Cat.

Brendan, I am in PA as well closer to philly. Not sure but I may have some old skate / VHS / dvds to add to your collection.

Secret tape gets so excited to show his stuff.

It’s funny to see him in a casino of all places in this because ironically I thought about parting ways with some skate videos to sell to him because I had blew all my money gambling and felt like some of the skate videos I have were the only thing of value I could get any quick money for lol glad I never did sell any though. Also kinda crazy because I’m trying to get a few DVDs signed tomorrow at a demo haha.

I hope he uploads that archive online hot damn

incredible video, incredible archive. doing gods work- but I gotta ask why the hell does vice own Jason dills part from phoytosynthesis? wth

what a legend

This was very enjoyable

dam , that made my day.

Inspiring

this guy is genius. good job.

Really sick! Brendan is the best

Best dude

need to buy something from dude soon!

Who sings the first song they’re playing in the background at 2:30? Someone skated to it in a part I know but I can’t remember

So sick my dudes!

So good. Coolest dude ever. He sent me harsh euro barge for free bc he knew I was a fan of Girl and Chocolate

Rapped out with dude many times, stoked to see this!

fuck yeah black cat. i was at the premiere!

what a sick dude!

a great case for physical media

great stuff

Bro got a nice flick as well

Got my copy of PJ Ladds wonderful horrible life from him

Depending on how long ago this interview was I might be the god save the label guy haha

The GOAT 🫡

How many copies of Jerry McGuire does he have?

Everyone should have a copy of Black Cat.

What’s the first tune in this video? It’s doing my head in trying to remember!

Could probably put some of those videos up on youtube and add a nice chunk of change to your business homie.

Wait Jason Dill’s Photosynthesis is owned by vice? Lol

Does he have a KZread channel that he’s uploading all of the videos?

Does he have a real world job or can he live off this? Would be so rad if he could buy I can't imagine

I’ll buy a sub zero real life vhs

Thumbs up if you were on IRC.
