And their catalog is truly epic, so where do you get started? That's what we're discussing.From “Walk, Don't Run” on, the Ventures made a splash. Let's look at their hottest hits, and maybe a few odd choices along the way.Sponsored by Traveler Guitar: travelerguitar.comFollow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

The Temple of Surf Podcast – This Week's Guest: Alessandro Piu – Italian Surfing Champion, Waterman, and Global Ambassador of Mediterranean Surf Culture This week on The Temple of Surf Podcast, we are honored to welcome one of Italy's finest surfers and a true ambassador of European surfing Alessandro Piu. Hailing from the sunny shores of Sardinia, Alessandro has carved out a remarkable path in professional surfing, breaking boundaries and making history as one of Italy's most decorated and recognizable surf athletes. With a fearless approach to the ocean, a deep respect for the environment, and a hunger for powerful waves around the globe, Alessandro embodies the spirit of the modern waterman. From Mediterranean breaks to the hollow reefs of Indonesia, from the rugged coastlines of Ireland to the barrels of Tahiti, he has proven that you don't need to be born in Hawaii or Australia to be world-class. Alessandro's story is one of determination, adaptability, and passion. Growing up in a country where surfing was still a niche sport, he discovered the ocean at a young age and quickly fell in love with the rhythm of the waves. Sardinia's varied coastline, ranging from wind-swept beach breaks to slabby reefs, became his training ground. With limited resources and exposure compared to surfers in California or Australia, Alessandro pushed himself hard, rising through the ranks with raw talent and tireless dedication. He quickly caught the attention of the European surf scene, earning titles at both national and international levels. Over the years, he became Italian Champion, represented Italy in ISA World Surfing Games and WSL Qualifying Series events, and participated in prestigious contests. His powerful, expressive style, especially in heavier surf, set him apart. Whether drawing sharp lines on a six-foot point break or charging thick barrels, Alessandro has consistently proven himself as one of the most complete surfers to ever emerge from Italy. But Alessandro is more than just a competitor, he's also a true explorer and surf culture storyteller. He has traveled extensively, surfed some of the most remote and challenging waves in the world, and helped shed light on Italy's unique surf geography. In recent years, he's taken on a role as an environmental advocate, using his platform to speak out about ocean conservation, pollution, and the preservation of coastal ecosystems. His involvement in sustainable surfboard initiatives and support of grassroots surf communities reflect his deep commitment to the planet and to future generations of surfers. On social media and in person, Alessandro has become a role model for aspiring surfers across Europe. His down-to-earth character, humility, and passion for wave riding resonate with fans from every background. He regularly collaborates with major surf brands, independent filmmakers, and ocean-focused nonprofits to amplify the message of connection between sport and sustainability. In this exclusive conversation with The Temple of Surf, Alessandro opens up about his early days surfing in Sardinia, the challenges he faced building a pro career from Italy, and his favorite destinations across the world. We also dive into his mindset during competitions, how he stays motivated during off-seasons, and what it feels like to represent his country on an international stage. Plus, he shares insights on the evolution of the Mediterranean surf scene, the importance of culture in surfing, and the legacy he hopes to leave. Whether you're a surfer from the coast of Biarritz, in Hawaii, or someone paddling out for the first time in Italy, Alessandro Piu's story is an inspiration. His journey proves that passion, grit, and respect for the ocean can take you to incredible places, even when you come from a country without a long-standing surf tradition. Tune in to this week's episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast for a raw, insightful, and powerful chat with one of Europe's top surfing voices. Alessandro Piu reminds us all that the soul of surfing knows no borders and that wherever there are waves and a deep love for the ocean, greatness can be found.

Does anyone remember those Bartender school commercials they used to run on daytime TV? It was a specific school for a specific task - serving drinks. The wave pool world does not have a university program. Surfing does, but not surf parks. Those who excel in this space tend to have a background cobbled from hospitality, resort and adventure tourism experience. And then there are some people who just have a sensibility that allows them to excel at whatever they decide to apply themselves to. Amy Hunt is such a person. The level of knowledge and moxie to deal with the many layers, nuances and chaos control to run a surf park, Amy has in spades. And this is something I'm finding out as we talk to more wave pool operators around the world. The skills needed aren't so much about having a wave pool-specific background, although in some years there will be a certificate for that - the skill set combines qualities like unicorn communication abilities along with creative problem solving meshed with hyper attention to detail. I discovered this thread during our conversation with Amy. She learns quickly, cares about the details and works tirelessly. The wave pool at Waco Surf is just one, small component to a 500-acre ranch that includes a cable park, lazy river, water slides, cabins, ponds, an island with lemurs and more. In this conversation we are gifted keen insights as she drills down the details of operation at what is today, America's favorite surf park.
A former Obama speechwriter moves to the Jersey Shore and learns to surf with the help of his brother-in-law: a tattooed, truck-driving Joe Rogan superfan.David, the Yale-educated writer with a fear of sharks, and Matt, the daredevil electrician with a shed full of surfboards, had never been close. But as America's crises piled up and David spiraled into existential dread, he noticed that his brother-in-law was thriving. He began to suspect Matt's favorite hobby had something to do with it.David started taking surf lessons. For months, he wiped out on waves the height of daffodils. Yet, after realizing that surfing could change him both in and out of the water, he set an audacious goal: riding a big wave in Hawaii. He searched for an expert he could trust to guide and protect him-and when he couldn't find one, he asked Matt. Together, they set out on a journey that spanned coasts, and even continents, before taking them to Oahu's famously dangerous North Shore.It's Only Drowning is a laugh-out-loud love letter to surfing-and so much more. It's an ode to embarking on adventures at any age. It's a blueprint for becoming braver at a time when it takes courage just to read the news. Most of all, it's the story of an unlikely friendship, one that crosses the fault lines of education, ideology, and culture tearing so many of us apart. It's is not just a surfing memoir - in addition to tackling (and be tackled by) the waves, David tackles the complex cultural nuances of our current society. Readers will recognize their own 'surfing' journeys and their own 'Matts', making David's story a beacon of hope to those of us who struggle to, but want to step outside our comfort zones whether that means taking up a new hobby or embarking on a journey to understand the other side of the aisle.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

GPT-NL, de Nederlandse tegenhanger van ChatGPT, is officieel gestart met trainen. Volgens ontwikkelaars TNO, NFI en SURF duurt dat tot eind dit jaar. Het resultaat moet een ethisch en juridisch verantwoord taalmodel zijn. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. GPT-NL omschrijft zich als een 'reactie op bestaande taalmodellen' dat transparant en betrouwbaar moet zijn. Bij taalmodellen zoals ChatGPT, Gemini, en Claude, is het namelijk niet altijd duidelijk of die getraind zijn met rechtmatig verkregen trainingsdata en hoe ze precies werken. Dat leidt ertoe dat auteursrechthebbenden niet altijd weten of hun werk gebruikt is voor trainingsdoeleinden terwijl daar vervolgens wel waarde mee gecreëerd wordt, zonder dat zij daar iets voor krijgen. Verder in deze Tech Update: Vier Nederlandse mannen zijn donderdagochtend voor de rechter verschenen omdat ze acht jaar lang de algoritmen van streamingdiensten aftapte, zodat ze zelf films en series konden aanbieden op hun eigen streamingsite See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's guest is John Clapham or JC, and I met him in Raglan, New Zealand last year when I walked into his shop hoping they weren't yet closing and said while huffing from my brisk walk, “What time do you close?” He responded with a smile, “depends on whose asking…LOL." And from there, we ended up chatting for about half an hour.I left thinking, I want to hear more of this guy's story.JC didn't go to college and worked his way up from tagging surf leashes in a retail shop to becoming CEO of Volcom Australia. He is the co-founder of the Raglan Surf Emporium, is a partner of Raglan Roast Coffee - which now has eleven locations across New Zealand - owns a gas station, holds major real estate investments, and continues to consult and build new ventures.In today's episode, we only scratch the surface of JC's journey.

The Temple of Surf Podcast – This Week's Guest: Jeff “Doc” Lausch of Surf Prescriptions This week on The Temple of Surf Podcast, we welcome one of the most innovative minds in surfboard shaping, Jeff “Doc” Lausch, the legendary founder of Surf Prescriptions. With a career spanning over four decades, Doc is known not just for pushing the boundaries of surfboard design, but for injecting punk rock energy, fearless experimentation, and personal creativity into every board that leaves his shaping room. From the vibrant surf scene of Huntington Beach in the ‘80s and ‘90s to the global stage of competitive surfing, Surf Prescriptions has always stood out as a brand that blends high performance with bold individuality. Doc's boards have been ridden by some of the most radical surfers of all time and many underground legends whose careers were shaped—literally and figuratively—by his work. In this episode, we dive into Jeff's incredible journey: how he got started in shaping, the philosophy behind Surf Prescriptions, his influences in both art and surfing, and what it means to stay authentic in an industry that constantly shifts with trends. We also discuss the evolution of surf culture, the role of experimentation in board design, and why some of the most unforgettable rides happen on the most unorthodox shapes. Whether you're a surfboard design geek, a fan of 1980s surf punk culture, or just love stories from the heart of the shaping bay, this episode is a must-listen. Jeff shares candid insights on staying true to your vision, the connection between artist and athlete, and the value of trusting intuition over convention.

Attending a New York Mets game at Citi Field is a phenomenal experience for locals and tourists alike. With its proximity to some excellent Asian food in Flushing, cheap ticket prices (generally), and a fun atmosphere, it's an activity we highly recommend!Brief History of Citi Field and the MetsFounded in 1962, they're based in Queens, New York, and have won two World Series championships (1969 and 1986). The team colors are blue and orange.Citi Field has been the Mets' home stadium since 2009, replacing the iconic Shea Stadium. Located in the Flushing neighborhood of Queens, the ballpark was designed as a tribute to Brooklyn's old Ebbets Field, featuring classic brick architecture. The stadium has a capacity of about 41,900 and is known for its distinctive exterior rotunda, excellent sight lines, and the Home Run Apple that rises when a Met hits a home run.It's genuinely a beautiful stadium that feels both updated and modern, yet retains its charm. I love watching planes take off and land at nearby LaGuardia Airport as the game progresses.Best Seats at Citi FieldThere are NO bad seats at Citi Field. We often scour various ticket sites for last-minute cheap tickets, then float around the stadium throughout the game.We often have the best luck on ticket prices on Vivid Seats (plus you earn rewards for free tickets).Where to Eat/Drink Before a Mets GameThere is little to nothing right next to Citi Field, so most people either eat or drink wherever they're coming from, or go to Flushing or Corona.Corona is known for Latin food, Flushing (Main St. stop on the 7) is one of the best spots in the world for Asian, and specifically Chinese food (besides China, of course).Spots in Flushing (one stop on the subway or a 20-minute walk):Nan Xiang Soup DumplingsFood court in the basement of the New World MallPeking Duck Sandwich StallChung Moo, try the homemade kimchiWhite BearThis Episode's You'll Have to Check It Out Segment - White BearCash-only and very little seating (maybe none at all post-COVID..

John and Ryan are back on the mics with sand in their shoes and cardboard in their backpacks, kicking things off with a roundup of their latest video game and Magic: The Gathering pickups—some gems and some regrets. Then it's onto showcase season, where the duo dives into their most anticipated titles from the latest Xbox Showcase and Sony's State of Play. But not everything is sunny in hardware land. The guys break down the rumored cancellation of the Xbox handheld, chatting about what it could mean for Microsoft's third-party strategy and whether a hardware pivot is smart—or just sad. Next up, Nintendo's out of the gates with early Switch 2 sales figures, and John and Ryan weigh in on whether lightning's struck twice for the Big N. To round it all out, the guys fire up their NES and hit the pixelated waves with a retro review of Town & Country Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage. Is it gnarly or just a wipeout?
