Join us this month for a mind-blowing conversation with returning guests Phil Luck (@phillucktattoo) and Eric Foemmel (@eric.foemmel) as they pull back the curtain on the truly lawless, legendary, and expensive history of tattooing!
This episode is packed with stories about the intimidating world of Philadelphia Eddie and other old-school legends. Phil and Eric detail the dark realities and the incredible grit it took to be a tattooer decades ago, revealing a world where $200,000 (that’s $2.1 million today!) was spent just to fight a ban, and a casual conversation could reveal that "we used to k*ll people back then." 🤯
This conversation gives an unforgettable glimpse into the lawless world of early tattooing, proving that the foundation of the modern tattoo industry was built on unbelievable sacrifice, fear, and a lot of grit.
