Danny Minnick on The Rick Thorne Show
Tuesday, 6 October, 2026

Pro skateboarder, filmmaker, actor and painter Danny Minnick talks with Rick Thorne about '80s punk and skate culture, the Seattle scene where he met Nirvana and Soundgarden, and how Larry Clark hired him as skateboard cinematographer on Wassup Rockers. He explains how Harold Hunter's death pushed him into sobriety and acting at the Actors Studio, and shows some of the paintings from his gallery work.CHAPTERS0:00:00 Intro0:00:56 Meet Danny Minnick0:06:17 Punks, bikers & skaters0:11:43 Skating Seattle0:18:41 Amateur days & skate videos0:21:50 Nirvana, Soundgarden & Seattle bands0:30:05 Skate cinematographer for Larry Clark0:34:50 Harold Hunter & starting to act0:39:53 The Actors Studio0:44:52 His bone-on-bone ankle0:50:10 Minor Threat, Fugazi & emo0:53:42 His book & paintings next to Banksy0:59:38 Gallery walkthrough1:05:12 Outro & creditsWatch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/E_5Y87-3dKMMore episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgUEwO8D7_1-x6VhkkeIAKc4Gf5ORzaDASubscribe to InfanityTV: https://www.youtube.com/@Infanity-TV/?sub_confirmation=1Website: https://infanitytv.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/infanitytelevision/Business inquiries: infanitystudios@gmail.comProduced by Jeff Sims for InfanityTV.
