    Ivy Insights

    The Highly Educated with Ryan Sherman podcast is a phenomenal source of connection to the local community for me. As someone who grew up in the area, I find immense enjoyment and fulfillment in listening to this podcast. The diversity and quality of guests that Ryan Sherman brings on are truly impressive. Each episode is an opportunity to learn about how individuals became who they are today, which offers valuable insights and inspiration.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is how it succeeds in creating a sense of connectivity to the local community. By focusing on the Long Island east end, it allows listeners like myself to feel connected to our roots and stay updated on what's happening in our hometown. The topics covered are varied and engaging, ranging from arts and culture to athletics. This diversity ensures that there's always something interesting and relevant being discussed.

    Furthermore, the podcast maintains a worldly perspective despite its local focus. It manages to shed light on East End happenings while also providing broader context and insights into global issues. This combination of localism and global awareness creates a unique listening experience that is both enriching and enjoyable.

    However, my only complaint about this podcast is that there aren't enough episodes! I am so captivated by each episode that I find myself eagerly awaiting new releases. If anything, it speaks volumes about the quality of content that Ryan Sherman consistently delivers. Nonetheless, I can't help but wish for more frequent episodes to satisfy my appetite for insightful conversations.

    In conclusion, The Highly Educated with Ryan Sherman podcast is highly recommended for anyone seeking easy listening with thoughtful and insightful discussions. It provides a much-needed local perspective on the East End, debunking media portrayals often seen in shows like Summer House. With its diverse range of guests, engaging topics, and a host whose voice has an ASMR-like quality, this podcast is truly exceptional. For those looking to feel connected to their community or simply expand their knowledge through captivating conversations, this podcast is a must-listen.

    This week on Highly Educated Podcast we bring in apparel creator, surf shop owner, and brand curator Adam Mar. A local to Long Island, New York - Adam has been coming out to Montauk ever since he was a little kid. For those who don't know Montauk, it's one of the most visited summer destinations in the world from June to September.However, living out in Montauk year-round for nearly the last decade and owning a surf shop is no easy feat - especially with the lack of affordable commercial property and hyper-inflated costs of rental housing to retain employees. Adam continues to support and connect with the community and that's how he makes it work. Between the free quarterly surf board swaps, always offering cheap surf wax, and participation in dozens of local events and causes throughout the year - he really is grabbing on to the local surf community. His shop also offers a very unique collection of boards that other shops don't carry so it's always worth the stop-in to check out their current inventory!The truth is we need more guys like Adam, who continue to operate and inspire out of small town environments that lose headway every day to large scale developers and big box brands. He is an example of the "Mom & Pop" stores we've been so desperate to keep in the downtown Montauk area, in The Hamptons, and beyond.
