123 | ABC ft. Headz Aint Redee
Saturday Jun 13, 2020
Saturday Jun 13, 2020
We're back with our second episode of the week and we brought good friend of the show, Jon Ratner, back for another visit. This week we hit on some Stock X updates in This Week In Kicks, along with some great news coming from a Canadian sneaker boutique. Then we get a story from Joel about his first experience buying from Stock X, and we talk about what NSR business we'd start if we had the chance. Finally, Jon came strapped with some great mini-discussion questions, so we spend the remainder of the show digging into those!
Once again, we end our show with a shout out for a front line worker who is doing their part to fight the pandemic and save the world.

122 | Art On Your Feet ft. Jumpin In With Both Feet
Tuesday Jun 09, 2020
Tuesday Jun 09, 2020
We're back after our week off in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protests taking place around the world - but before we jump in, please remember that this is not a trend or a fad, and this is something that needs attention every single day.
We're joined this week by good friend of the show, Mike, AKA Jumpin In With Both Feet, who jumps in while we talk a new signing for Converse Hoops, if we truly have a rotation right now, and more food talk during NSR. Since it's Mike's first visit he gets to play 21 Guestions, and then we learn a little of his sneaker history in his Soleography. We also get some insight from him about joining the sneaker game a little later in life, and how that may have influenced his purchasing habits.
We conclude, once again, with a shout out for an Essential Worker who is out on the front lines saving the world.

120 | Views While You Snooze ft. Bryce Kicks
Saturday May 30, 2020
Saturday May 30, 2020
We're back with our second episode of the week and it was a good one! We're joined by friend of the show, and sneaker Youtuber, Bryson - better known as Bryce Kicks - who follows along as we talk about a new raffle system that raised some eyebrows, plus what kind of chicken wing is the best kind of chicken wing. Because this is Bryson's first appearance on the pod, we run him through a round of 21 Guestions, and he gives us a deep dive on his sneaker history during his Soleography. Finally, he gives us some insight on the sneaker Youtube game, as well as his thoughts on the longevity of the platform.
PLEASE remember to stay home, wash your hands, and stay safe!

119 | Go DJ ft. Rizzzy
Tuesday May 26, 2020
Tuesday May 26, 2020
True to Size Tuesday is BACK in full force, and we asked our in-house DJ, Mr. Rizzzy to join in on the fun. Today we talk savage sneaker shops, a new Jordan Brand signing, and popular pairs that we're just not really down with. Then we get into a game of 21 Guestions with our guest (hint: he doesn't fair well), and we learn his sneaker history during our Solography segment. Finally, because we've got a disc jockey present, we finish up with a conversation about music and sneakers. Why are DJ's always sneakerheads, has the artist overtaken the athlete in the sneaker world, and which entertainers we'd like to see get a sneaker deal.
Once again we shoot a special shout out to an essential worker, and would love for our listeners to submit their shout-outs as well! As always, stay home, stay safe, and WASH. YOUR. HANDS.

118 | The New Normal ft. Christopher Chiu
Saturday May 23, 2020
Saturday May 23, 2020
We skipped True to Size Tuesday this week due to the long-weekend in Canada, but we're back with a banger of an episode to fill the void. This week we're also joined by the one and only, Mr. 10K, Mr. Triple Up, Christopher Chiu; who rides along while we discuss a half-million dollar Jordan sneaker, the UFC, and walking on the sidewalk. Then we mull over what we think the "new normal" will look like in the sneaker world. What will the in-store sneaker shopping experience be like, how will stores handle high profile releases going forward, and when's the next time we think we'll be at a sneaker convention.
We finish things off with our new, weekly, front-line worker shoutout, where we read a heartfelt message from a pharmaceutical superhero across the pond in England. If you or someone you know is helping save the world on the front lines during this crazy time, shoot us a message and we will be sure to personally thank them on the podcast!

117 | Yeezy Money ft. KJ to the B
Saturday May 16, 2020
Saturday May 16, 2020
We're back with our second drop of the week, and boy was it a doozy. We covered some amazing raffles that are benefiting great causes, dove deep into some Puma talk, and talk about musical tastes outside our usual lanes. Of course because Kevin the Kanye stan is joining us, we threw in some Yeezy content by discussing our favourite Kanye-designed models, if we think the Yeezy wave can continue, and if he'll really go back to the Swoosh. To close things out, we discuss what sneaker shopping was like pre-Stock X and GOAT. Where our favourite places were to find kicks, some of our biggest come-ups, and of course, some of our biggest blunders.
We have also added a weekly shout out section for essential workers. So if you know a front-line hero who deserves some extra love, let us know, and we'll make sure they're shown the appreciation they deserve!

116 | One Love ft. Tara & Ahmad
Tuesday May 12, 2020
Tuesday May 12, 2020
The return of True to Size Tuesday this week is set-off with the return of some of our favourite friends of the show - Tara and Ahmad. Today we chat about bots, game-worn Jordans, and when it's appropriate to finally break out the shorts. Then we get into a double whammy of 21 Guestions with our visitors, plus we get to find out how well this sneaker power couple really knows one another (hint: they know each other quite well).
Remember - stay safe, stay home, and wash your damn hands!

115 | Not Sneaker Related ft. Sole Purpose
Saturday May 09, 2020
Saturday May 09, 2020
We're back with another Saturday edition of True to Size, and this week we flipped the script and we're trying something completely new. Joined by our good friend Sole Purpose, aka Philly, we dedicated the entire episode to Not Sneaker Related topics. We talked movies, UFO's, hobbies outside of sneakers and finished off the episode with an NSR version of "Can You Name 5?" It was refreshing to shake things up a little, but we look forward to getting back to sneakers on episode 116!
Remember; stay home, stay safe, and wash your hands!

114 | "I'm Back" ft. JR Wideman
Tuesday May 05, 2020
Tuesday May 05, 2020
This week for True to Size Tuesday we are joined by friend of the show and Michael Jordan aficionado, JR Wideman. In honour of JR stopping by, we devoted the episode to the Jumpman, and discussed wether we think The Last Dance has officially brought Jordans BACK - or if they ever left at all. We also share some of our favourite pick-up stories and most sentimental pairs in our new segment, and talk about what Asian cuisine we plan to indulge in once the quarantine ends.
As always - stay home, stay safe, and wash your damn hands.
