ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For the 30th anniversary of Larry Clark’s KIDS, we take a hard look at the film that shook skateboarding and youth culture in the mid-90s. We pair it with the documentary We Were Once Kids, digging into its raw relevance to skateboarding and the darker aftermath for stars Harold Hunter and Justin Pierce. We talk about exploitation by Clark and, to a lesser degree, screenwriter Harmony Korine and weigh how much responsibility they hold for the fallout. Beyond the film’s gritty reputation, we explore its complicated legacy, the culture it reflected, and the reactions that still ripple today.
