About The Not So Fresh Podcast:
In the fall of 2016 after much debate and throwing ideas at each other, they decided to start a podcast. As big fans of other podcasts such as The Joe Rogan Experience and Bill Burr’s Monday Morning Podcast, they figured they could begin with a new, fresh perspective in the podcast community created by a bunch of guys that come from the hip hop crowd.
On this episode, we will:
- Get to know the Not So Fresh Podcast better and get some insight on what it means to be a bboy from both a local and global perspective.
- Ask the Not So Fresh Podcast a few off the beaten path questions in our Thunder Round.
- Put a quick spotlight on some artists that recently caught our attention online in our Art Watch segment.
- Then we’ll Flash Forward and talk about what’s on the horizon for all of us.
Thunder Round Questions:
- What super hero or villain best represents you?
- If super heroes and villains were bboys, which three characters would you want on your crew?
- What would you do if we gave you a million dollars?
- It’s 2am at a karaoke joint…you have the last song…what do you sing?
- If you could have dinner with anyone dead or alive, who would it be and where would you eat at?

About The Get Down (from TuffRocking.com):
The image The Get Down strives to capture, is not some big dance competition or some snobby art exhibition, but the type of vibe that was alive during its heyday. We want others to experience the social gatherings of talent, the funky beats of the DJ’s, the gathering of people who share the same love for the arts, the dance, and the music, with a POSITIVE vibe. Although it is not possible to get back the feeling that those people in the Bronx experienced during the 70s, it is possible to remember why we are involved in this scene and how the past has influenced us. The Get Down Brothers, now in their 14th year of bridging the gap between generations, are still committed to bboy culture, the community, and keeping that community jam vibe alive.
The Next event will be Saturday July 22nd 2017 at Centro Cultural De La Raza in beautiful Balboa Park. San Diego, CA.
