Hosts: J.C. De Leon and Michael Willams
Welcome to The Tattoo Shop with the Bearded Gentlemen! Hosted by OneOfUs.net regular J.C. De Leon and tattoo artist Michael Willams (@Beardedgentleman on Instagram) this one of a kind podcast will focus tattoo trends, dispel frequent myths, our hosts will tell stories of their history with tattoos and we’ll even bring in guests that range from other tattoo artists and tattoo enthusiasts in general.

So join us for some great stories, genuine laughs, and don’t be afraid of walking into our tattoo shop.
