A conversation with CORE LORD Jan 14, 2026

Show notes

Our guest this week is the most Hard-Core Surfer we know. A true throwback who lives and breathes Core Surf etiquette. He stands firmly on the values of localism and isn’t afraid to enforce them. Quick to call out the kooks and keep the lineup in check, he backs it all up with real accolades, major contest wins, and zero hesitation owning every bit of it.

His confidence is unmatched, both in the water and out. When it comes to scoring waves and winning over the ladies, he does it better than anyone.

We welcome to the show the World Champion of Scoring,

the one and only “CORE LORD” himself.

A conversation with Todd "KLINEY" Kline Dec 31, 2025

Show notes

Our guest this week is a former Professional Surfer, Professional Tournament Angler, and Surf broadcaster/commentator. He first made his mark in the surfing world with a highly respected seven-year pro career, earning four event wins along the way.

Following his competitive career, he spent more than a decade with his main sponsor, Quiksilver, working his way up through team and marketing roles to become Marketing Director. Many fans also recognize his familiar face and voice as a broadcast personality for the World Surf League.

When he’s not traveling to surf contests, he’s competing at the highest level in professional fishing and stacking accomplishments just as impressive as his surf career. His accolades include 2022 Angler of the Year, 17 Top-10 finishes, 5 tournament wins, an MLF Cup appearance, and the 2015 National Championship.

We’re pumped to hear his incredible story and talk about his business for private guided fishing experiences. We welcome to the show Mr. Todd “Kliney” Kline.

A conversation with Kei "K-CHAN" Kobashyi_Episode #2 Dec 17, 2025

Show notes

Our guest this week is a second time repeat because he has been kicking ass lately, dropping some insane viral clips and racking up some trophies along the way! This young buck has a few WQS wins under his belt, but recently just won The Bonsoy Asia Super Series. We are pumped to hear about it all, he over 700 day surf streak, and what he has lined up for 2026 and beyond. We welcome Kei “K-CHAN“ Kobayashi.

A conversation with Craig "BO" Bouman_HITS Bev Dec 10, 2025

Show notes

Our guest this week is a Surfer, Snowboarder, Moto-Head, and sometimes a model. But we’re not here to talk about his athleticism, his good looks, or his style. He’s a self-made man who paid his dues as a Hollywood movie set builder before becoming an entrepreneur and successful businessman. He made his mark designing and fabricating retail stores, trade-show exhibits, and custom retail fixtures through his full-service design firm, Studio Concepts. Their success came from partnering with major brands across multiple industries, and after more than 20+ years, he and his business partner sold the company.

His next venture put him at the forefront of California’s move toward legalized marijuana agriculture. He purchased a multi-acre farm, secured a rare and highly limited state grow permit, and now supplies wholesale product to the industry—including consumer direct line of products called “HITS”.

Most recently, his passion for design has resurfaced through his housing design and remodeling company, TRB Triumph Royal Builders.

We’re stoked to sit down with our good friend and welcome to the show Mr. Craig “BO” Bouman.

A conversation with Mike Miner_CDNCE SHOES Nov 26, 2025

Show notes

Our guest this week is a Surfer and entrepreneur who got tired of sneakers that couldn’t keep up with his active beach lifestyle. So he built one that could you can rinse clean, dry fast, and take anywhere. Sand, sweat, salt water…no problem, just rinse and repeat. His brand even features a trademarked CDNCEcore Tech midsole, engineered to absorb shock, rebound energy, and keep every step smoother and more aligned. We’re fired up to talk about CDNCE Shoes and the man behind the brand, Mr. Mike “MENTAL TERRORIST“ Miner.
