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!

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.

Episode 106 - We're Not Angry, Just Disappointed

Listen in to this episode where we discuss the latest in the surf world.

Mainly focusing on STAB's recent air wave comp, STAB High along with featuring a quick run down on the WSL event in Brazil too.

Both of these events left us disappointed, not angry, but not happy and for differing reasons.

Stab - We expected better, it was not quite the spectacle it should have been watching live, our opinion, it should have been recorded and packaged... but it was still a lot of fun!

WSL - The wave is not world class, it's hard to get excited watching it over and over and J Bay was on at the same time but we couldn't watch it... do better.

We also touch on some more core surfing news too!

Tune in, enjoy and share!

Episode 104 - Point Break Perfection - El Salvador Recap & Live Final Commentary.

A few people out there questioned why Punta Rocka finds itself on the WSL schedule, especially after J Bay got cut, but this year we saw why.

In a wildly entertaining event, we saw the limits of progression pushed by Yago Dora, JJF and others too. Notable mentioned to R Cal, LOB and Molly too.

On the ladies side, Caroline went back to back with some insanely accurate back side surfing, taking down the force of Gabriella Bryan in the final.

JJF and Yago Dora where easily the form surfers on the mens side of the event. John landing a perfect 10 in his semi final and Yago comboing Medina!

John took out the final, his first event win in forever!

Episode 103 - Jam Packed Poddy! Chopes, Stab, El Salvador & More - Not To Be Missed!

A bumper episode for you this time around!

To run though, we chat about Stab’s “How Surfers Get Paid” last two episodes, where we give our thoughts on the origins of these episodes, along with asking why Stab choose to do this, maybe where they missed and hit, and just our honest opinions!

Then we chat Tahiti, Teeeaaahhuuupooo-oo, and the latest WSL event which was a cone fest that made us appreciate the fact the WSL broadcast is free of charge!

We give our highlights, lowlights and more criticisms of Kaipo too! So it’s a fun one.

After this we predict what will happen in El Salvador, along with talking about the growth of new surfboard brands and more too! Even some NBA talk!

Do not miss this one.

Episode 102 - Waves Of Wonder! Listen in for a must see surf series.

It has never been questioned, the better the wave you have on offer the better the spectacle to watch and absorb.

This has been made even more clear this week with two different showings of waves that are wonders of the world. One of them is incredibly well known, being Chopes, the other is a mystery wave found and shown off in O'Neill's Maps To Nowhere series!

In the Maps To Nowhere, Soli Bailey, Caity Simmers and her brother Timo seem to be getting skunked until the wave turns on, and then, we'll watch it and see!

Other than this, out in Tahiti, some of the best in the world have scored some of the filthiest cones seen in a long while. Big mentions to Liam O'Brien, Molly Picklum, Griffin Colapinto and Leo too!
