For Episode 24 of the Then and Now Podcast, I interview Ahiataku Samuel Dela, aka Darling Sam. Sam lives in Accra, the capital of Ghana, on the Atlantic coast of West Africa, where he documents his skating through his YouTube Channel SkateSam Ghana. In this interview, we dive into his past, how he got started, his struggles, getting noticed, and sponsorships. We discuss his YouTube channel, how things are going for him now, and his plans for the future. We also talk about the skate scenes in Ghana and Western Africa, meeting Ricardo Lino, his faith, and why he loves rollerblading so much!
You can watch these podcasts as videos on the Then And Now Youtube channel. The YouTube version also features video and photo overlays relevant to the conversation to make it more documentary-style. The channel also includes The Vault, Jan's collection of raw skating footage spanning from 1995-2010. Find out more about the Podcast and YouTube channel at thenandnowblading.com.
