We all dream. Every night. Whether we remember them or not. And maybe — just maybe — those dreams aren’t random, ridiculous, or irrelevant. Maybe they’re trying to tell us something we’re too distracted, too busy, or too burned out to hear while we’re awake. Here to help us decode the language of dreams is Dr. Bonnie Buckner — founder of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery®, executive coach, faculty director at GWU’s Center for Excellence in Public Leadership, and author of The Secret Mind: Unlock the Power of Your Dreams to Transform Your Life . She’s spent her career teaching people how to use dreaming and imagery for personal growth, leadership, and creative breakthroughs . We explore: Why your dreams are worth paying attention to (even the weird ones) The science and strategy behind using dreams for personal development How feelings and subconscious wisdom can point to answers What to do if you don’t remember your dreams Why slowing down might be the key to speeding up your clarity Because what if the clarity you're chasing isn't out there — it's already in you, waiting for you to slow down, shut off, and tune in?

Today’s word of the week? Shoulder hopper—and no, it’s not a dance move. It’s that one surfer who repeatedly snakes waves from the shoulder, cutting off riders with priority and generally acting like the ocean owes them something. In this episode, we unpack the meaning, the etiquette breach, and why everyone hates a shoulder hopper. Plus, did you know there's an actual song about them? We’ll play you a verse or two from the Surf Punks’ cult classic and talk about why this term still hits a nerve in the lineup.…
Before there were kook cords, power ropes, or sissy strings, there was just you, the board, and a long-ass swim every time you wiped out. In today’s episode, we unravel the tangled, sometimes controversial history of the surf leash—aka the thing that keeps your board from bashing into rocks (or someone’s head). From the leash’s clunky and dangerous early prototypes to the day Pat O’Neill accidentally blinded his dad, this episode covers how surfers went from proudly leashless to grudgingly—and then fully—leashed. We’ll hear from Corky Carroll’s 1972 take, unpack the “leashes are for dogs” debate, and figure out if going leashless today still counts as core… or just kooky.…
Thought Mavericks was gnarly? Thought Cortes Bank was wild? Meet Shipstern Bluff—aka Shippies—Tasmania’s freakiest slab and possibly the most dangerous surf break on earth. In this episode, we travel to the edge of the Tasman Peninsula where mutant waves break over razor-sharp reef, sharks lurk, and the water is bloody freezing. We’ll talk about the “mutant steps” that give this wave its horrifying reputation, the long hike (or sketchy jet ski ride) to get there, and the early pioneers who dared to surf it—including David Guiney, who surfed it solo for years. You’ll also hear the near-death story of big wave charger Mikey Brennan, plus how photographers like Sean Davey and surfers like Mark Mathews helped put Shippies on the map.…
Confused by swell direction, wave period, or what “2–3 ft (observed)” actually means? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re breaking down the surf forecast—line by line—with Gavin Bechtold, creator of Go Surfing San Diego and the Sunday Stoke surf forecast newsletter. We talk about what all those Surfline numbers really mean, how to figure out when (and where) to paddle out, and why wave energy might be your new favorite metric. Plus: Gavin’s self-taught journey from foamie to shortboard Why Tourmaline is a beginner’s best friend The magic number of surf sessions per week What makes a forecast “good enough” for beginners This one’s for every surfer who’s ever opened Surfline and gone, “…wait, what’s a kilojoule?”…
In today’s episode: an Airman celebrates his discharge by getting barreled in full uniform, a penguin crashes a lineup in South Africa (and hugs a surfer), and a shark nearly bites a surfboard clean in half in Australia. Oh—and Hurricane Erin is trying to outdo Teahupoʻo with 100-foot wave projections off the U.S. East Coast. No big deal. We’re talking about: Freedom rides (in dress shoes) Shark bites with Slater commentary Penguin party waves Whether 100-foot waves are actually on the way…
Sámara isn’t where you go to prove anything. This sleepy beach town on Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula has no illusions of grandeur—just small, steady waves, warm water, and zero surf snobbery. In other words: paradise for beginners.
This one’s personal. If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t quite fit in, if you’ve ever followed advice that didn’t fit, or if you’re still looking for your surf crew…this one’s for you. You'll learn it's ok to just be you: a surfer with personal preferences, pet peeves, and private goals. Because if your host gets to do this, so do you.…
You’ve heard of twin-fins. You’ve heard of thrusters. But have you heard of… the twinzer? In today’s episode, we’re diving into the weird and wonderful world of fin setups — specifically, the twinzer. Not a typo. Not a quad. Definitely not mainstream. Born in 1988 (the year of Die Hard and A Fish Called Wanda ), the twinzer was shaper Wil Jobson’s answer to the death of the twin-fin — and it involved two extra fins placed forward of the mains, with a wild mix of cant and toe-in. We'll explain all the new words, I promise!…
Cortés Bank. It’s a wave so remote, so ridiculous, it practically needs its own Pearl Jam or Soundgarden soundtrack. In this episode, we dive into the myth and madness of Cortés — an underwater mountain range 100 miles off the coast of California that occasionally produces 80-foot waves… and also sinks ships. Located in the middle of nowhere and just a few feet below the surface, this spot is raw ocean energy hitting reef with nothing to block it. No beach. No land. Just chaos. So, obviously surfers love it.…
Santa Teresa: the land of surf, yoga, and smoothie bowls—or so Instagram would have you believe. In this week’s Weekly Pop-Up , we’re breaking down the reality behind the reels. Think long stretches of beach with mellow peaks for beginners, punchy sections when you’re ready to level up, and water so warm you’ll never need a wetsuit. We’ll cover where to surf (Playa Carmen, Santa Teresa, Hermosa), when to go, what hazards to watch for, and why you might need an ATV as much as a surfboard. Plus, all the non-surf essentials—yoga, waterfalls, tacos, and that inevitable coating of dust.…
What if you surfed every single day for 40 years? In this episode, we pay tribute to Dale Webster — the Californian surfer who rode waves every day from 1975 to 2015. That’s 14,642 consecutive days, over 43,000 waves, and a record that will likely never be broken. You may know Dale from Step Into Liquid , where he appears as the wetsuit-worn soul bowing to waves in thanks. But his story goes far beyond a quirky documentary cameo. We’ll talk about what drove him, how his family supported him, and why this story feels bigger than surfing. A hui hou, Dale.…
From wave pools to wipeouts, yachts to Hollywood, this week’s lineup is wild. The first Wavegarden in the U.S. is opening in Virginia Beach, and the hype is real. A 6-man canoe takes a rogue wave to the ER. A 60-foot yacht “surfs” into shallow water in Waikiki. Plus: Jason Momoa’s near-drowning rescue by Laird Hamilton, Chris Hemsworth’s forbidden 40-footer, and Amy Schumer’s surfing injury reveal.…
Ever wondered how to keep your hair healthy after endless saltwater sessions—without harming the ocean you love? 🌊 In this episode, we chat with Brittany Jones, founder of Coconut Smuggler, about the art (and science) of protecting your surf hair while staying reef-safe. Brittany shares her journey from surfer to eco-conscious entrepreneur, the inspiration behind her all-natural pre- and post-surf hair care line, and why ocean-friendly ingredients matter. We’ll dive into surf hair myths and future hair themes. If your hair has ever felt like a dry broom after a surf—you’ll love this conversation.…
At 53, Melissa calls herself “scientifically a mermaid” — and after hearing her story, you’ll see why. Growing up near the ocean in Sydney, she dabbled in surfing for years before heartbreak pushed her to buy her own board and start solo surf missions. In this episode, Melissa shares how catching that first little wave became addictive, why Port Stephens is her sanctuary, and how surfing helped her heal, grow stronger, and find more joy in life. Melissa brings her expertise as a psychologist and dating coach to share her thoughts on love, the ocean, and why confidence in the lineup translates to confidence everywhere.…
What do pullouts, flying kickouts, and island pullouts have in common? More than you think. In this episode, we trace the evolution of the pullout — from the days of heavy, finless longboards where stopping was nearly impossible, to the stylish, safety-first exits of modern surfing. You’ll hear about the flashy chaos of the flying kickout during the shortboard revolution, the invention of the leash that changed everything, and the graceful island pullout that still shines in small surf.…
