Summary
Today we have the one and only… well, “he’s just a guy,” according to him… Tim Hendricks. We’re sitting down with the tattooers’ tattooer himself to talk about his lifelong love of the craft and why being old school doesn’t mean you have to be old-fashioned in your attitude. You can respect tradition, protect the craft, and still be a genuinely kind human. Imagine that. Tim talks about gatekeeping for the right reasons: protecting the people receiving bad tattoos and preserving the integrity of tattooing, not feeding your ego. From his early days building homemade tattoo machines to remaining a firm believer in the coil machine, Tim has stayed true to his roots while evolving in all the ways that actually matter. We get into his early tattoo years, and his time in the spotlight on shows like Miami Ink and NY Ink, and the addiction he was quietly battling while millions of people watched him on their TV screens. He opens up about the journey that brought him to where he is today and what a healthier, more grounded life looks like now. This episode is full of wisdom, humility, and a reminder that your ego is not your amigo. So sit down with a true tattoo legend and learn a thing or two from one of the most respected names in the game. Like & Subscribe for new episodes every week.
