NO SMALL TALK Podcast | BAGEL - From Bombing Freeways to Beating the Odds

Fort Worth Graffiti Stories. Straight From the Source.

We’re back with another real one — and this episode cuts deep into the roots of the city.

Bagel isn’t just a name. He’s a Fort Worth graffiti veteran, a voice for the streets, and someone whose work painted the city before the art scene ever caught up.

This episode is about more than just letters on concrete — it’s about risk, history, beef, growth, and getting it how you live.

We talked about:

  • The early days of Fort Worth graffiti and how the city slept on it

  • The legendary slaughterhouse and early freeway runs

  • The reality of racking paint and evading cops

  • When graffiti turned into gang surveillance — and what that felt like

  • The evolution of can control and style

  • His thoughts on the future: VR graffiti, drones, and whether it’s all worth it

This is a raw conversation with someone who’s seen it all and stayed real through it. No sugarcoating. No posing. Just the kind of insight you only get from someone who lived it.

🎧 Watch the full episode above.

Truth. War stories. Wisdom.
No filters. No small talk.

  • What the graffiti scene was really like in Fort Worth back then

  • The moment KTK crew got added to the gang files

  • The difference between street art and real graffiti

  • Stories behind the most iconic pieces in the city
