    Episode 109 - Two Guest, One Trip Of A Lifetime + Insider's 2025 Boat Trip?

    After weeks of heavy jealousy, we decided to get the low down on a Renegade Surf boat trip taken by two of our closest mates!

    We are joined by Mr Jonathan Weaver and Mr Bram Defoort to hear all about the 10 day trip they recent embarked on.

    This conversation has now inspired us to explore the idea of a 2025 Boat Trip for Insider's. Would you be keen?

    Also with the boat chat, we talk surfing around Europe, world issues and more!

    Join us for one the best, most fun episodes we have released!

  • We Review A Surf Horror Film + Olympic's Breakdown
    Jul 22 2024

    Episode 108 - We Review A Surf Horror Film + Olympics' Breakdown

    Famously Matt does not watch any horror or thriller films, until the last week. Watching Kerby Brown's Facing Monsters, he quickly realised this was a Surf Horror film, that is made to the highest standard.

    All jokes aside, that Kerby and his brother manage to pull off is nothing short of elite level, but with a giant side dish of terrifying. We can't recommend this film enough, it's on par with Free Solo and 14 peaks.

    Alongside this, we break down an early forecast for Tahiti and the Olympics. Listen in to hear our picks for medalists and what we are very much worried about too.
