A conversation with Mike "REVEREND" Harris May 31, 2024

Show notes

Our guest this week is a Christian Pastor, Incredible Surfer, and Photographer. He likes to charge Big Waves, like the Wedge, Pipe, or some mysto reef in Indo. He is one of few photographers on the planet that can capitalize on “being on both ends of the lens”. He has no problem putting himself in critical situations or in harm’s way when it comes to getting the water shot. He is known to be on biggest bomb or best wave, as well as capturing the best shot, all on the same day! He is humble and underground when it comes to surfing or being in the spotlight and lets his surfing and photography speak for themselves. We welcome this super stud, ultra-talented, physically gifted, and one genuine great human Mike “REVEREND” Harris.

A conversation with Kolohe "BROTHER" Andino_2 PERCENT UNION Apr 12, 2024

Show notes

Our guest this week is a second-generation pro-surfer who just happened to be a child prodigy. We are pretty sure he broke all NSSA amateur title records. He was putting out crazy edits and blowing away everyone with the air-game. By the early age of 15 had, most if not all of, the iconic Surf Brands in a bidding war to sign him. He spent 10 years on the Championship tour. He continues to put out crazy content, has a huge passion for Surf films, which he also produces, and is all about mentoring and promoting the next generation of rippers called 2%. His recent “Stab In The Dark “ series is absolute mind blowing and we are beyond pumped to welcome Kolohe “BROTHER” Andino to the show.
