ACTS 1:12-26 - THE APOSTLES - BRIAN SUMNER - 2026"Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey. 13 And when they had entered, they went up into the upper room where they were staying: Peter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot; and Judas the son of James. 14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.Matthias Chosen15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples (altogether the number of names was about a hundred and twenty), and said, 16 “Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus; 17 for he was numbered with us and obtained a part in this ministry.”18 (Now this man purchased a field with the [g]wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out. 19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.)20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms:‘Let his dwelling place be desolate,And let no one live in it';and,‘Let another take his office.'21 “Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John to that day when He was taken up from us, one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”23 And they proposed two: Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. 24 And they prayed and said, “You, O Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which of these two You have chosen 25 to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.” 26 And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles."To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY. Since coming to faith in 2004 doors continued opening locally and internationally to do more and more ministry with a focus on Evangelism, Outreach Missions, Marriage, Counsel, Schools, Festivals, Conferences and the like.  Everything about this ministry is made possible because of people personally partnering through the non profit. God Bless and thank you. †Support the showSUPPORT THE SHOW

Did Marshall Alberga date the same woman as Kelly Slater? In this episode of the Pinch My Salt Podcast, professional surfer Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan sit down with Florida surf legend Marshall Alberga for one of our wildest surf conversations yet. Marshall tells the story of beating 11-time world champion Kelly Slater in a man-on-man surf contest at Cocoa Beach, the awkward handshake that followed, and why things between Marshall and Kelly may have remained weird for nearly 20 years.The crew also talks about Kelly Slater's competitive mindset, East Coast surfing, Florida surf culture, the Sean Slater Invitational, Cocoa Beach surf contests, and what it was like growing up inside the professional surf industry. Then the conversation moves to Hawaii's North Shore, Pipeline, Jamie O'Brien, surf houses, pro surfer groupies, wild North Shore parties, accidental drug deals, getting shot with a pellet gun, and the unwritten rules of surviving Hawaii as a young surfer.Before the podcast, Sterling, Ryan, and Marshall take a spontaneous Florida surf trip to chase a powerful East Coast swell. They battle nonstop current, short-period waves, sunburn, exhaustion, long beach walks, and the reality of trying to surf when you are no longer 18 years old.Marshall also opens up about his history with Sterling Spencer and how their friendship helped Sterling recover after his traumatic brain injury. During Sterling's recovery in Hawaii, Marshall helped him paddle out, surf again, regain his strength, and rediscover why surfing was supposed to be fun. Their friendship eventually helped inspire the comedy videos and surf content that led to the creation of Pinch My Salt.This episode dives into the rise and fall of the early-2000s surf industry, surf sponsorships, Billabong, Lost Surfboards, No Fear, NSSA contests, East Coast Surfing Magazine, magazine surfers, professional surfing contracts, trust-fund surfers, social media surfing, YouTube surf careers, Nathan Florence, Jamie O'Brien, and why so many retired professional surfers eventually become real estate agents.The guys discuss the pressure young surfers faced when brands promised they could become the next Kelly Slater. Surf companies sponsored hundreds of kids, placed stickers on their boards, dangled the dream of becoming a professional surfer, and often moved on when the next younger athlete arrived. Marshall explains why so many talented surfers struggled after their professional careers ended and why he believes kids should learn to love surfing before worrying about sponsors, contests, money, fame, or becoming a surf legend.They also break down the difference between surfing on the East Coast, the Gulf Coast, California, and Hawaii. Is Florida too comfortable for professional surfers? Do fishing, Southern food, small-wave contests, local fame, and comfortable hometowns stop East Coast surfers from chasing their full potential? Why does Hawaii create such a different level of commitment, fear, discipline, and work ethic?From Kelly Slater rivalry stories and Jamie O'Brien's Pipeline house to surf industry politics, Hawaiian culture, accidental crime, old-school surf sponsorships, surf contest psychology, brain injury recovery, friendship, family, healing, and rediscovering the aloha spirit, this episode covers every side of surfing.Featuring:Kelly SlaterMarshall AlbergaSterling SpencerCousin RyanJamie O'BrienNathan FlorenceCJ HobgoodDamien HobgoodShay LopezMakua RothmanAndy IronsSunny GarciaPete MendiaOliver KurtzEvan GeiselmanFreddy PatacchiaDerek HoNorth Shore surfingPipeline surfingCocoa Beach surfingFlorida surf cultureEast Coast surfingProfessional surfingSurf industry storiesSurf podcast comedyLet us know in the comments: Do you believe Marshall and Kelly Slater are really Eskimo brothers?

In this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast, we welcome back Gina Jurlando to the show. You might remember her when we last had her on to talk about the Yeasty Boys, the community surf group she founded to help make surfing more welcoming, inclusive, and supportive for everyone looking to paddle out.Since then, Gina has continued doing what she does best—bringing people together. Whether it's through surfing, community events, environmental initiatives, art, film, or simply creating spaces where people can connect, she's become one of the driving forces behind the ever-evolving culture of Rockaway Beach.Today she's back to talk about two exciting new projects. First, the inaugural Rockaway Surf Film Festival, a new celebration of surf culture, storytelling, creativity, and the unique community that has grown around the ocean here in New York. And second, Jupiter Club, a new community-focused surf club, co-working space, event venue, and gathering place that is already becoming a hub for surfers, artists, entrepreneurs, and locals alike. Jupiter Club was created to carry forward the spirit of community that has always made Rockaway special, while creating new opportunities for people to connect, collaborate, and share ideas. From building one of the most welcoming surf communities on the East Coast to helping launch new cultural institutions right here in Rockaway, Gina continues to prove that surfing is about much more than waves—it's about the people you meet along the way.She is our guest today on this episode of The Swell Season Surf Podcast.Follow The Jupiter Club on Instagram: jupiterclubnycYou can find more information on the club and The  Rockaway Surf  Film Festival here: https://www.jupiterclubnyc.com/ The Swell Season Surf Podcast is recorded by The NewsStand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of Manhattan and is distributed by The Swell Season Surf Radio Network. For more information, you can follow @swellseasonsurfradio on Instagram or go to our website: www.swellseasonsurf.com Music: Artist: The SandalsSong: Driftin'Album: The Endless Summer Soundtrack 00:00 Welcome Back Gina02:42 Host Gift Plug04:17 Jupiter Club Origins06:53 Amenities And Bike Plans08:18 Why Jupiter Club10:18 Running The Space11:49 Membership And Lockers13:33 Programming By Community15:35 Work Life Balance18:36 Film Festival Idea21:16 Keeping It Short23:41 Tech And Volunteers26:39 Submissions And Judging28:50 Screening Night Details29:22 Panel Talk And Kwame30:12 Surf Therapy Explained32:02 Volunteering and Perspective33:25 Running a Surf Club35:23 Dogs and Community Vibes36:12 Film Festival Updates37:00 Summer Events Lineup37:23 Wetsuit Repair and Sustainability40:51 Art Classes and Community Ideas42:30 Organic Growth and Challenges45:27 Social Media Struggles48:36 Surfer Questionnaire51:06 Final Plugs and Wrap UpBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/swell-season-surf-radio--3483504/support.

What happens when you wake up one day and realize you've spent years helping build everyone else's dream… but quietly lost yourself in the process? This week, Mitch Matthews sits down with entrepreneur, designer, craftsman, and Imperfects founder, Mike Lynch... for a deeply honest conversation about burnout, creativity, entrepreneurship, identity, and what it really means to build something meaningful. Before launching Imperfects, Mike spent years building brands through his successful agency work. On paper, everything looked great. The business was growing. The clients were excited. The opportunities were there. But internally? He was exhausted. As Mike puts it, he realized he was "burnt out building everyone else's dreams." That realization eventually led him back to something unexpected: shaping surfboards by hand. Not because it made financial sense. Not because he had a master plan. But because it helped him reconnect with creativity, craftsmanship, presence, and himself. What started as a personal creative outlet slowly evolved into Imperfects—a fashion and lifestyle brand built around the belief that "the human experience is imperfect." And ironically, that acceptance of imperfection became the thing that unlocked more freedom, authenticity, meaning, and excellence in Mike's life and work. This conversation is for the entrepreneur, creator, leader, or dreamer who's achieved success… but still feels disconnected, burned out, rushed, or hungry for work that actually feels like them.

The Superhero Show #624Fantastic Four: Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2The Superhero Show — Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2This week, The Superhero Show concludes one of the biggest stories in the 1994 Fantastic Four animated series with “The Silver Surfer and the Coming of Galactus Pt. 2.” The hosts continue their discussion of Marvel's most famous cosmic saga, breaking down the climactic confrontation between Galactus and the Fantastic Four, the Silver Surfer's growing appreciation for humanity, and the episode's unique ability to feel both universe-shattering and completely ridiculous at the same time.While the arrival of Galactus promised one of Marvel's grandest stories, the hosts debate whether the cartoon's two-part structure helped elevate the story—or simply stretched it beyond what the material could comfortably support.In the second half of the show, they continue their read-through of Ryan North's Fantastic Four with Issue #5, “Up to Scratch,” introducing magic, witches, and the arrival of Nicholas Scratch into an already wonderfully strange series.Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2: The Battle for EarthThe hosts begin with a full breakdown of “The Silver Surfer and the Coming of Galactus Pt. 2,” focusing on the Fantastic Four's desperate attempt to save Earth from one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe.They discuss how the episode handles the conflict between Galactus and the Fantastic Four, examining whether the cartoon successfully conveys the impossible scale of the threat. As expected, Reed Richards spends much of the episode trying to science his way out of an apocalypse, while the rest of the team struggles to contribute against a foe who literally consumes planets.The conversation highlights the challenge of adapting a cosmic epic into a Saturday morning cartoon format and whether the episode succeeds despite its limitations.Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2: The Surfer Finds His HumanityOne of the hosts' favorite aspects of the episode is the continued development of the Silver Surfer.After arriving as Galactus's loyal herald, the Surfer gradually begins to recognize the value of humanity and the life that exists on Earth. The hosts discuss how this moral awakening becomes the emotional center of the story and why the Silver Surfer often works best when he is torn between duty and compassion.They also compare this portrayal to later versions of the character and appreciate how quickly the show establishes the core tragedy that makes the Surfer such an enduring Marvel figure.Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2: Cosmic Power, Cartoon LogicOf course, no discussion would be complete without talking about Galactus himself.The hosts spend plenty of time laughing about the show's portrayal of Marvel's Devourer of Worlds. While the character is theoretically one of the most terrifying entities in comic book history, the cartoon version often feels oddly approachable, occasionally undercutting his cosmic menace with unintentionally silly dialogue and Saturday-morning-cartoon energy.This leads to a broader discussion about the balance between faithfully adapting comic book concepts and making them work for a younger audience. Is Galactus intimidating? Sometimes. Is he also kind of hilarious? Absolutely.Feeling the Weight of the Two-ParterAs the discussion continues, the hosts revisit one of their biggest criticisms from Part 1: the feeling that this story may not have needed two episodes.They talk about how some scenes still feel stretched out, how certain subplots continue to slow down the pacing, and how the show occasionally struggles to fill the runtime between its major story beats. While the cosmic concepts remain exciting, the hosts argue that the narrative might have been stronger with a tighter structure.Even so, they agree that the sheer importance of introducing both Galactus and the Silver Surfer helps make the story memorable despite its flaws.Ryan North's Fantastic Four #5: Up to ScratchIn the second half of the episode, the hosts move from cosmic science fiction into outright magic with Ryan North's Fantastic Four #5, "Up to Scratch."The issue introduces Nicholas Scratch and expands the comic's supernatural side, bringing magic into a series that has largely focused on science and family dynamics up to this point. The hosts discuss how seamlessly Ryan North incorporates magical concepts into the Fantastic Four mythos while maintaining the strong character work that has defined the run so far.They explore Nicholas Scratch's role in the story, the growing mysteries surrounding the magical elements being introduced, and how refreshing it is to see the Fantastic Four operate outside their usual scientific comfort zone.The discussion also highlights how Marvel's universe has always been at its best when science fiction, superheroes, and magic are allowed to collide in unexpected ways.Final Thoughts — Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2By the end of Silver Surfer and Galactus Pt. 2, The Superhero Show finds itself both impressed and amused by one of the most ambitious stories the 1994 Fantastic Four series has attempted. While Galactus may not always feel as terrifying as his comic book counterpart and the two-part structure occasionally shows its seams, the introduction of both Galactus and the Silver Surfer remains a landmark moment for the series.Combined with another excellent installment of Ryan North's Fantastic Four, this episode delivers a fun blend of cosmic spectacle, magical mystery, and comic book analysis as the hosts continue their exploration of Marvel's first family.Are You a Research Nerd Who's Looking For More?Here are some links for all your research wants and needs!1994 Fantastic Four Animated SeriesRyan North's Fantastic FourJoin the discussions online! 1994 Fantastic Four Animated Series, Ryan North's Fantastic FourCatch Up On Past Episodes!Missed any of our past episodes?

Ben and Rob dive headfirst into the churning, sun bleached chaos of The Surfer, directed by Lorcan Finnegan and starring Nicolas Cage, Julian McMahon, Finn Little, and Nick Warnock. What begins as a straightforward tale of a man trying to reclaim his boyhood beach slowly mutates into something far stranger; a conversation about exploitation cinema, Australian genre filmmaking, territorial masculinity, mob psychology, class warfare, and whether Nicolas Cage has quietly delivered one of the most unhinged yet precisely calibrated performances of his entire career.What even is an exploitation movie and does The Surfer wear that label as a badge of honour or a disguise? How did a distinctly Australian filmmaking tradition turn low budgets and sun scorched paranoia into an art form all its own? Who is the old man in the car park, why does he linger so long in the memory, and what is he actually doing in this film on a deeper level? Why does this story, a man systematically stripped of status, dignity, and sanity by a pack of territorial gatekeepers, feel so peculiarly timely?

In this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast, we sit down with Rockaway's own Sean Aiken—founder of Seany Pizza, creator of the upcoming Crown Square Pizza, and host of The Last Train Home podcast. While Sean may be best known these days for his Detroit-style pizza, his story stretches far beyond the kitchen. We talk about growing up in Rockaway, the neighborhood's unique creative energy, and how the peninsula has evolved over the years. Sean reflects on life in Dayton Towers, memories of Rockaway Playland, and the influence of his family on everything from work ethic to music taste. We also dive into Sean's journey through New York's music and nightlife scenes—from learning to DJ at Jam Master Jay's Scratch Academy to managing at Brooklyn Bowl—and how those experiences ultimately led him toward pizza, entrepreneurship, and a new sense of purpose.From apprenticeships at some of New York's most respected pizza institutions to building a business of his own in Rockaway, Sean's story is one of reinvention, persistence, and finding meaning through craft and community.This conversation touches on pizza, music, sobriety, creativity, neighborhood identity, and what it means to build something lasting at the edge of New York City.Grab a slice, crack a soda, and enjoy this conversation with Sean Aiken.Follow Sean on Instagram: @seanypizzaTo listen to Sean's Podcast click the link here: The Last Train HomeThe Swell Season Surf Podcast is recorded by The NewsStand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of Manhattan and is distributed by The Swell Season Surf Radio Network. For more information, you can follow @swellseasonsurfradio on Instagram or go to our website: www.swellseasonsurf.com Music: Artist: The DriftersSong: Under the BoardwalkAlbum: Under the  Boardwalk00:00 Welcome to Rockaway02:41 Pizza Gifts and Plugs04:04 NYC Roots and Neighborhoods05:59 Accents and City Memory08:16 Rockaway Seasons and Family Life12:01 Growing Up Rough Rockaway15:38 Playland Memories17:16 Parents Jobs and Old NYC21:30 Loss and Health Fears22:30 Ocean Air Cats and Wild Dogs24:59 San Francisco Detour25:51 Rockaway Change and Future29:14 Boardwalk Rebuild Debate29:44 Rockaway Community Backbone30:40 City Neglect and Flooding Fixes31:47 Summer Crowds Reality Check32:46 Music Roots and Influences35:49 Brother Returns and Hip Hop Spark41:24 Concerts and DJ Beginnings45:47 Scratch Academy Deep Dive47:38 Beatmatching and DJ Respect50:18 Reggae Nights and Paying Dues56:23 From DJing to Managing57:56 Williamsburg DJ Scene58:35 Black Betty Breakthrough58:52 New Orleans After Katrina59:14 Leap of Faith Mindset01:00:41 From DJ to Tour Manager01:03:08 Van Tour Reality Check01:04:35 Opening Sets and Pride01:05:47 Brooklyn Bowl Training01:08:38 Ego Check and Feathers01:11:25 Humility and Consumerism01:15:40 POS Chaos and Bonding01:16:20 Meeting His Future Wife01:19:55 Sobriety and Partnership01:23:06 Pizza Craft and Standards01:26:04 Pizza Origins and NYC Icons01:27:10 Pizza Inspiration TV01:27:48 Lucali and Paulie Gee01:29:01 Vegan Pie Philosophy01:30:17 Apprentice Origins01:33:04 Starting Over Lessons01:36:19 Crown Pizza Vision01:41:14 Bromate Dough Debate01:43:04 Influencers and Taste01:48:23 Pizza Lightning Round01:52:38 Plugs and FarewellBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/swell-season-surf-radio--3483504/support.

Watching Gidget as a little girl changed the entire course of Susie Terry's life. What started with a surfboard strapped through the sunroof of her mom's VW Bug turned into a lifetime of chasing waves, building community, and staying stoked well into her seventies.In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady, The First Women's Surfing Podcast™, I talk with Surfer Susie about growing up surfing in Ventura in the late 1950s, teaching herself how to surf before leashes or wetsuits existed, and what it's been like watching surf culture evolve over the decades. We also talk about aging, fitness, social media fame, and why surfing still gives her the same excitement it did as a little girl.Susie's energy is infectious. She's hilarious, grounded, wildly relatable, and a reminder that surfing doesn't have to stop at a certain age. If anything, her story shows how the ocean can keep giving back for an entire lifetime.

Our guest for this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast is John Angiulo — a professional surfer, surf educator, author, filmmaker, and one of Montauk's most thoughtful voices exploring the deeper meaning of surfing and wave culture. John grew up immersed in the roots of East Coast surfing. His father, Kenny Angiulo, was considered one of New York's standout surfers during the golden era of East Coast surf culture, often mentioned alongside legends like Ricky Rasmussen. His uncle, Michael “Mick” Angiulo, played a major role in helping legalize and expand surf access throughout New York State beaches through his groundbreaking work with the Eastern Surfing Association.John began surfing at just five years old at Ditch Plains, and over the past three decades has taught thousands of people to surf in places like Montauk, Indonesia, Costa Rica, and Puerto Rico.But this conversation goes far beyond surfing technique. Through projects like A Word on Waves and the Surfing Saves Project, John explores the idea that surfing is more than a sport — it's a framework for understanding life, community, energy, and our relationship with the natural world.We dive into Montauk surf history, the battle for beach access, surf instruction, lineup culture, spirituality, quantum theory, wave consciousness, and how surfing can become a tool for personal and communal regeneration.We also discuss John's monthly “Paddle Outs to Peace,” designed to promote collective coherence and connection through the ocean.This is a thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation about surfing, philosophy, community, and the power of waves — both in the ocean and in life.

The Surfer’s Journal presents Soundings with Jamie Brisick

The daughter of an American father and a Japanese mother, Shirley Rogers was born in Japan in 1953. She spent her first nine years there, then a few years in Texas. At 16, she moved with her parents to Oahu. At Campbell High School on the Westside, she took photography classes and found a passion for it. She also found surfing—the act of riding waves, the culture, and the community. In 1971, her parents moved back to Texas. Having freshly graduated, Rogers chose to stay in Hawaii. She moved to the then rural and untapped North Shore and fell in with the surf luminaries of the era—Jeff Hakman, Gerry Lopez, Rory Russell, Eddie Rothman, Shaun Tomson, and Peter Townend, among many others. One day at Waimea Bay, filmmakers Jack McCoy and Dick Hoole handed Shirley a 650 Century lens and a tripod and told her to, essentially, "have at it." She was amazed by what she saw through that telephoto lens. These were the days before auto-focus, and it was a true challenge to follow the surfer and nail the shot, but Rogers was a quick study. She submitted her photos to Surfer, Surfing, and Tracks magazines. They ran them. Soon she was getting paid for her work. There were few female surf photographers on the 1970s and '80s North Shore. Rogers gained a reputation for her tight, sharp, well-composed images, typically shot from the beach. Her portraiture emitted a candid and all-access quality—she was merely shooting her pals, who also happened to be the most sought-after surf stars of the time. She traveled—to Indonesia, Australia, Tahiti. She photographed the nascent women's pro events. She moonlighted as a bartender at the Kuilima, today known as the Turtle Bay Resort. In her spare time, she rode dirt bikes. In the late 1980s, Shirley gave up surf photography, got a sales job, and moved from the North Shore to Honolulu. Now 72, Rogers lives in Huntington Beach. In this episode of Soundings, Rogers talks with Jamie Brisick about changes on the North Shore, capturing waves less trodden, surfing's commercialization, her favorite spots to shoot, and tiger tracks in Indonesia.  Presented by Rainbow® Sandals.

What happens when surfing goes beyond the wave… and becomes pure art? In this episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast, we sit down with surfer and surf artist Michael Torquato De Nicola, a creative force who has transformed his deep connection with the ocean into a unique artistic expression. This is not just a conversation about surfing, it's about vision, identity, and the way the ocean shapes not only how we ride waves, but how we see the world. Michael's journey is a powerful blend of passion, creativity, and dedication. From his early days in the water to developing his signature artistic style, he shares how surfing influenced every aspect of his life. For Michael, the wave is not just something to ride, it's something to interpret, to feel, and ultimately to translate into art. Throughout the episode, we explore the intersection between surf culture and artistic expression. How does a surfer become an artist? What does it mean to capture the energy of the ocean on canvas? And how can creativity help us understand our relationship with nature on a deeper level? Michael opens up about his creative process, the inspiration behind his work, and the challenges of staying authentic in both the surf and art worlds. His perspective is refreshing, honest, and deeply inspiring for anyone who feels drawn to the ocean—whether as a surfer, an artist, or simply someone searching for meaning in what they love. This episode is a reminder that surfing is more than performance. It's a lifestyle, a mindset, and for some, like Michael, a form of storytelling that goes far beyond words. If you love surfing, creativity, and the stories behind the people who dedicate their lives to the ocean, this conversation is for you.

If you have been involved in surf, skate or snow sports in the last three decades; you've been impacted by Thom McElroy.   Thom stands as one of the most influential creative minds to emerge from modern surf culture. Along with Volcom founder Richard Woolcot and co-founder Tucker Hall, he helped redefine what a surf brand could be. And helped shoot it to the moon.   With a background in graphic design and marketing (and his own firm McElroy Communications) Thom was working with other leading surf industry brands while he quietly helped to build Volcom into one of the biggest action sport brands in the world. And… he helped infuse it with an identity that blended surf, skate, snow, music, and art. His work created trends, changed the energy of youth culture and  inspired a generation to think differently about creativity and individuality… in and out of the water.   Thom has always had a clear belief in the importance of culture, following his gut, surrounding himself with great people, mentors and mentoring; while staying committed to surfing every day… still to this day. He championed, and employed athletes, artists, and creatives who embodied originality over conformity, pursued working and playing hard, while helping elevate Volcom and many, many other brands, on the global stage.   For much of the outside world, Thom McElroy may not be a well known name; but if you are in the inner circle of the action sports industries, you absolutely know, or know of Thom.   Today Thom is a prolific mentor, board of director member, community member, prone paddler, family man and a full on surf turkey. It's an amazing story of working your tail off, loving what you do, and making an impact on those around you… and on some of the biggest brands in the world.   0:00 – “Introducing Thom McElroy & Episode Overview” 2:25 – Thom's Background & Early Journey 7:10 – Key Turning Points in His Career 12:05 – Challenges Faced & Lessons Learned 17:20 – Building Experience & Developing Skills 22:40 – Mindset, Discipline & Consistency 28:05 – Navigating Pressure & Decision-Making 33:30 – What Separates High Performers 38:55 – Personal Growth & Long-Term Perspective 44:20 – Advice for Those Starting Out 49:45 – What's Next & Future Vision 55:10 – Final Thoughts & Takeaways

Our guest this week is a Surfer, entrepreneur, savvy businessman, certified Surf industry legend, and owner of one of the most iconic Surf Shops in Southern California, if not the world. It's a true time capsule, both in its decor and in the fact that it remains one of the very few core Surf Shops still focused mainly on surfboards, wetsuits, and hard goods. They even have an in-house wetsuit repair shop in the back.Known for the witty satire on its legendary PCH sign in Newport Beach, Frog House has never been shy about stirring the pot. Messages like “Now Accepting Eggs as Payment,” “Our Wetsuits Didn't Hang Themselves, Neither Did Epstein,” and “Frog House Daycare and Learing Center” have become part of the shop's daily character and charm.Inside, the vibe feels more like a bachelor pad frat house full of Surf bums and lovable misfits than a traditional retail shop and that's exactly how they like it. Since 1962, the Frog House has built its reputation on deep Surf knowledge, strong camaraderie, and hand picked employees trained by some of the best in Surf Culture.We're excited to sit down and hear how this Florida grom moved to Huntington Beach during his senior year of high school, convinced then owner Frank Jensen to give him a job, worked his way up to shop manager, and somehow saved enough money to buy the shop in 1978.But that's only part of the story. We're beyond pumped to hear it all straight from the man himself, the “Core Lord,” owner of Frog House, Mr. Thomas “TK” Brimer.

Hello Friends! It's Beach Boys time again here on the show, as we continue to enjoy the backend of the summer down under. Somewhat inspired by the recent We Gotta Groove: The Brother Studio Years box set, this album was originally issued in mono and stereo in September 1963, and thankfully has never had any form of remix, though one track did received a mildly modified master for use as a flip side. Often regarded as one of their best recorded LPs, both mixes are a treat, but what makes each one shine in it's own unique way?

Tony John Andrews hails from Rhode Island, which despite being the smallest U.S. state in terms of landmass, has the second greatest ratio of coastline to landmass of all 50 states. He'll take it. He is a former state champion swimmer who really wanted to surf, so he did the best he could to teach himself in the region's piddling windslop. Now in San Francisco's Outer Sunset, trying to wrangle Ocean Beach, he has developed a renewed appreciation for his swimming background. Tony holds his BA in Philosophy and Film Studies from Amherst College, and an MFA in English from the Iowa Nonfiction Writing Program. His work is particularly interested in subjects driven by obsessive passions, like surfing, that often teeter on the edge of self-destruction. He has been contributing to The Surfer's Journal since 2022, and recently wrote the definitive profile on pro surfer Dane Reynolds. His work has been nominated for Best American Essay and Best American Science and Nature Writing. He is represented by Creative Artists Agency, and is working on a hybrid book of surf memoir and reportage.If you dig this podcast, will you please leave a short review on Apple Podcasts?

The Surfer’s Journal presents Soundings with Jamie Brisick

Born in 1937, Mickey Muñoz moved from New York to Los Angeles at age six, started surfing at age 10, and swiftly found Malibu's First Point. He became one of the top surfers out there, and made friends with the regulars—Joe Quigg, Matt Kivlin, Miki Dora.  Muñoz eventually moved to Hawaii, where he rode Waikiki and worked restaurant jobs to get by. He soon found his way out to the North Shore, which was a new frontier at the time, becoming part of the pioneering crew at Waimea Bay. Muñoz appeared in the new Surfer magazine in 1960, riding at Malibu with Dora and Mike Doyle, all three on the same board, as well as doing the first ever "Quasimoto," a head dip with the front arm aimed forward. Muñoz competed in and won contests, among them the Tom Morey Invitational noseriding event, in 1965, for which the prize was a whopping $750. He shaped surfboards for Hobie, got deep into sailing and catamarans, and brought what he'd learned on the open seas to wave-riding and board design. He wrote a memoir, No Bad Waves: Talking Story with Mickey Muñoz, published in 2011. But Muñoz's legacy is as much about simply living and perpetuating the joy of the surfing life as it is about benchmarks or achievements. And he's still doing it, at age 87. In this episode of Soundings, Muñoz talks with Jamie Brisick about Malibu's golden age, experimenting with shorter boards, early days on the North Shore, riding Waimea, modern performance surfing, riding waves into his eighties, and Miki Dora.   Presented by Rainbow® Sandals.

Amazon sellers are entering a new era of product discovery, and AI visibility is becoming part of the playbook. In this episode, Scott sits down with Yona, founder of Amazon Growth Lab, to break down how brands can improve visibility across both Amazon's ecosystem (Rufus, Cosmo, organic search) and external LLMs like ChatGPT and Perplexity. Yona explains why traditional keyword stuffing is fading, how Amazon is evolving toward context and use-case relevance, and why listing content now needs stronger sentiment alignment across titles, bullets, A+ content, and images. They also dig into the difference between Amazon visibility and LLM visibility. Since LLMs often do not scrape Amazon product pages directly, Yona shares why off-Amazon signals like press, community mentions, and helpful content can influence whether products get recommended in AI answers. The conversation also covers a practical conversion playbook for 2026, including CTR optimization, image testing, PickFu workflows, conversion benchmarking, reviews, and iterative A/B testing for infographics and A+ content. If you want a clear breakdown of what's changing in Amazon search, AI discovery, and conversion strategy, this episode is packed with actionable ideas.

What if the idea that changes your life… starts with something as ordinary as being thirsty?In 2007, Travis Rosbach walked into a sporting goods store looking for a water bottle—and stumbled onto a problem no one had solved. Plastic, BPA-lined bottles dominated the market. Metal alternatives leaked, dented, or couldn't keep drinks cold enough. Travis's solution? A double-walled, vacuum-insulated, stainless steel bottle. His expertise? Non-existent. This is the improbable story of how Hydro Flask was built—from scavenging metal parts in China, to selling bottles at outdoor markets, to getting into Whole Foods by sheer timing and luck, to a last-minute investor who walked in on the day Travis planned to shut the company down.Hydro Flask would go on to become one of the most recognizable and popular bottles in the country.
