This episode is with a small business owner and BMX rider in the Pittsburgh scene, Karlis Fisers, or as many will know him as Mantis Tattoo, or @813mantis. Karlis has ridden BMX since the early 1980's and also operated Mantis Tattoo, a tattoo and piercing shop, in Greensburg, PA for 16 years.

As you can imagine much of the discussion is related to the current Corona Virus (COVID-19) epidemic and the impact on small businesses such as his own, but we definitely talk about BMX as well.
