Listeners of AIN'T THAT SWELL that love the show mention:The AIN'T THAT SWELL podcast is an absolute gem in the world of surf podcasts. With their hilarious banter and insightful commentary, hosts Jed and Vaughan bring a refreshing and entertaining perspective to the surfing community. This podcast is a must-listen for any surf enthusiast looking for a good laugh and some valuable insights into the sport.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the chemistry between Jed and Vaughan. Their dynamic is infectious, and their humor adds an extra layer of enjoyment to each episode. Whether they're singing original songs or teasing each other mercilessly, their camaraderie shines through and keeps listeners engaged throughout.
Another standout aspect of The AIN'T THAT SWELL podcast is the quality of their guests. From legendary surfers like Parko and Slater to industry insiders like Ron Dog, they consistently bring on fascinating individuals with captivating stories to share. These guests add depth and variety to the podcast, keeping it fresh and interesting with each episode.
However, one downside to this podcast is that they occasionally have live episodes that aren't as polished as their studio recordings. While they still manage to be funny, these live episodes can sometimes lack the same level of comedic timing and production value as their studio counterparts. It would be great if they focused more on producing high-quality studio episodes consistently.
In conclusion, The AIN'T THAT SWELL podcast is a top-tier surf podcast that delivers both laughs and valuable insights into the world of surfing. Jed and Vaughan's chemistry, along with their excellent guest selection, make this podcast a standout in its genre. Despite occasional dips in production quality during live episodes, it remains a must-listen for any surf enthusiast craving entertainment and knowledge from two witty Aussie hosts who truly know their stuff.
