Eddie Donnellan is a surfer, father, and the founder of the MeWater Foundation, which celebrates its 10-year anniversary this year. Calling in from his home near Ocean Beach in San Francisco, Eddie shares how skating a curb growing up with a stranger led to a single 15-minute conversation that changed the trajectory of his life and led him to a lifelong connection with surfing and the ocean. Eddie reflects on his own upbringing, his mother's resilience as an immigrant and educator, and how those lessons shaped his work in children's mental health and his passion for creating opportunities for underserved youth. He explains how MeWater uses surfing and time in nature as a conduit for healing, confidence, and community, and why sharing a child's very first wave can be the most powerful moment of all. The conversation touches on the challenges and triumphs of running a nonprofit, partnerships with brands like YETI and Patagonia, and why integrity matters when it comes to working with supporters. Eddie also shares what's next for MeWater, from college scholarships to taking kids on tropical trips that expand their world, as well as personal reflections on fatherhood, setting boundaries, and the lessons he's learned from the kids who inspire him.

We tour Billabong House lore, Andy's board stash, groms in stand-up pits, and why lineup etiquette still matters.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Julien Laurens, Jacqui Oatley and The Telegraph's Jason Burts to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with Chelsea's last-minute win over Liverpool at the Bridge. Whilst Laurens praises Maresca's victory and show of emotion, he criticises Liverpool's lack of control, with a third loss in eight days. Jason believes Liverpool's winning start to the season was unsustainable and considers it a missed opportunity that they didn't buy Marc Guehi in the summer.Next we look to Man United's home win over Sunderland; whilst Julien focuses on Amorim's side's lack of consistency, was this clean sheet and good performance a sign of things to come? We then have The Athletic's Megan Feringa on the pod to talk WSL; how far can Manchester United go this season? And with Arsenal dropping seven points already in the WSL, after bringing in Olivia Smith, why is it they can't get over the line in the league in the same way the likes of Chelsea are able to?We also look at Arsenal's win against West Ham, taking them to the top of the Premier League and Julien believes the Gunners' control gave Nuno's side no chance of winning the game.Finally, a gritty win for Tottenham against Leeds showed Thomas Frank's ability to bring a different side to Spurs; Jason believes Frank can get them back in to the top four this season.

Former CT icon Jeremy Flores, 2025 World runner up Griffin Colapinto, and 2025 Rookie of the Year Marco Mignot join The Lineup with Dave Prodan from France for a special episode presented by Quiksilver. The crew dives into the rebirth of the Quiksilver Festival, where “no rules is the rule,” blending surfing's legends and current stars with music, parties, and the Hossegor community. They trade stories on the good vibes, the local fans, and what it means to bring an iconic event back to life. Marco reflects on silencing the doubters during his breakout rookie season, Griffin breaks down the evolution of his barrel and rail game, and Jeremy shares how he went from Reunion Island to carrying the weight of being called “the next Kelly Slater.” From off-season goals and surf progression, the camaraderie and the rivalries, this episode captures the spirit of Quik Fest and the stoke of three surfers at very different but equally defining moments in their careers. Oh… and Jeremy demands a wildcard the next time the CT comes to Hossegor. Follow Jeremy Flores here. Follow Griffin Colapinto here. Follow Marco Mignot here. Recap the 2025 Quiksilver Festival here.

Dr. Cliff Kapono is a professional surfer, journalist, ocean steward, cultural advocate, and marine conservation scientist with a PhD in Chemistry. He is a co-founder of the MEGA Lab, which has pioneered large-scale, community-driven 3D mapping of coral reefs, pushing the boundaries of how we understand and preserve our oceans. He is an ambassador and board member of the Surfrider foundation and is a featured surfer in Thomas Campbell's film Yi-Wo, VICE's The Smartest Surfer in the World, and NobodySurf's Circadian Rhythms. Joining The Lineup from his home in Hilo, Hawai‘i, Cliff reflects on balancing his life between science and surfing, and the power of learning when to say no. He dives into his new VICE documentary, Let It Kill You: The Smartest Surfer in the World, and how the project highlights the many ways surfers can elevate their community and contribute to society beyond competition. Cliff shares his journey from growing up in rural Hawai‘i and chasing the dream of free boards and boardshorts, to becoming one of the few Native Hawaiians with a PhD. He discusses the struggle of reconciling what it means to be a “pro surfer,” the support of brands like Vissla and Reef, and his mission to advocate for scientific literacy in the surf community. The conversation ranges from board talk and the subtleties of rail spray, to the MEGA Lab's cutting-edge ocean technology projects, to the pioneers and storytellers who shaped his perspective. Cliff also answers fan questions, looks ahead to what's next for him and his work, and shares why staying connected to the ocean remains at the heart of everything he does.

Aloha, core-lords! In this episode, Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan pitch a wild, actually-workable future for surfing: Surf Dojos + a Jiu-Jitsu-style belt system (white → blue → purple → brown → black, with degrees for airs, big waves, and riding any board). We roast soft-tops, salute the Herbie/Nathan/Christian Fletcher lineage and Astrodeck, debate WSL reform (END the endless qualifying grind, merge storylines, boost media), and ask the hard question: Is pickleball bigger than surfing—and why? We break down style vs. tricks, longboarding at size, and what makes true black belts like John John Florence, Joel Parkinson, Griffin Colapinto, Italo Ferreira, Nathan Florence, Kai Lenny (and yes, Kelly) different. Expect Mavericks walls, Snapper Rocks frontside/backside confusion, Pipeline/Tahiti/Jaws talk, Gen Z “training” on land, and classic Pinch My Clips chaos—plus the “Core-Lord vs. Soft-Top” cage match you didn't know you needed. This is surfing culture, comedy, and progression—skate brain meets ocean dojo, built for surf/skate/comedy podcast fans who still chase style, respect the lineup, and want real community.

2x Big Wave World Champion and 3x Peʻahi Challenge winner Paige Alms joins Conner Coffin on the 805 Beer Cold Beer Surf Club. Coming from the 2025 Big Wave Awards in Newport Beach, CA, Paige reflects on the moments that defined her career and the tight-knit big-wave community that feels like family every time they come together. From getting caught inside by a 60-foot set during a contest, to foiling between Hawaiian islands, to surfing “by braille” in giant conditions, Paige breaks down what it means to be a true waterwoman. She recalls the “swell that changed everything” at Jaws, and reflects on her mentorship under the late, great Chris Vandervoort, and the pioneers who paved the way – legends like Marcio Freire, Yuri Soledade, and Deniro Couto. She highlights how Shane Dorian and Ian Walsh pushed the boundaries of what's possible, and gives props to the next generation, Albee Layer, Kai Lenny, Matt Meola, and more, for carrying the torch and taking big-wave surfing into the future. She shares why she believes Peʻahi is the best big wave on the planet, breaks down her favorite boards for charging Jaws, and opens up about developing a cold-water allergy that forced her to rethink recovery and preparation. She talks about her early “claim to fame” moment beating Carissa Moore in junior NSSA contests and winning a national title, and how those battles shaped her competitive fire. She dives into the progression of women's surfing across every discipline, the wins and wipeouts that shaped her journey, and what's next as she balances chasing swells with mentoring the next generation.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by ESPN's Mark Ogden, The Mail's Craig Hope and The Mirror's John Cross to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with Man United's chaotic home win against Chelsea. Craig believes United will always have enough quality to keep bad managers in good jobs. But will this win be a turning point in their season?Next we look at Graham Potter, who's feeling the pressure as West Ham were booed off, after a loss at home to Crystal Palace. Mark believes Potter tries to play an attractive style of football, but is there any way back for him from here?We also look at the difficult situation at Wolves, and whilst Vitor Pereira is struggling, Craig argues that Wolves have the right man in the role, and losing Cunha and Ait-Nouri was always going to be tough.Elsewhere, we look at Arsenal v Man City; John thinks Liverpool are setting such a relentless standard, that already in the season we have must-win games for the teams looking to challenge.We then move to Liverpool's Merseyside derby win. Mark highlights Liverpool's fire power but there's also a running theme of throwing away leads this season.Finally, The Athletic's Charlotte Harpur comes on to the pod to talk of the sad news of Liverpool FC Women's manager Matt Beard's passing. Charlotte talks of Matt's legacy both on and off the pitch, including consecutive WSL wins and Matt's empathetic character.Running Order:3min Man United's Chaotic Win Over Chelsea23mins Potter Under Pressure35mins Vitor's Wolves struggle 38mins Arsenal v Man City 52mins Liverpool Merseyside Win65mins Matt Beard's Legacy

One of the heaviest chargers in big wave surfing and dryrobe ambassador, Andrew “Cotty” Cotton, joins us on The Lineup. From his roots in Devon, England, to towing some of the gnarliest waves ever ridden at Nazaré alongside legends like Garrett McNamara, Cotty has survived career-threatening injuries, epic wipeouts, and helped put Portugal's fishing village on the global big-wave map. In this episode, Cotty opens up about prepping for the Northern Hemisphere season, the evolution of equipment and safety in big-wave surfing, and the mental and physical resilience needed to tackle waves that push the limits of human performance. He reflects on his journey from plumber to professional big wave surfer, the injuries that tested him both physically and mentally, and the moments that defined his career. We also dive into his mentoring of the next generation, the role of sponsorships like dryrobe in cold-water sessions, and the balance between chasing massive surf and enjoying the simple stoke of the lineup. Plus, Cotty answers fan questions from Instagram, from his favorite waves to tips for older beginners, and even weighs in on the classic Devon vs. Cornwall cream-first debate. This episode is brought to you by dryrobe, helping surfers stay warm, dry, and ready to perform no matter how cold the water gets. Follow Cotty here.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie look back over the 4-1 win over LCL on the opening day of the WSL season. They consider the selection of Katie Reid at centre-half and whether she will continue in the position while Leah Williamson is injured, a slow start to the game, Olivia Smith's moment of magic, the impact of the 'game changers' from the bench and whether this match points to a more fluid use of the squad this season. In the second half, Tim and Jamie answer listener questions on the Sunday synchronised kickoffs, Kyra Cooney-Cross and selection for Friday's game at West Ham.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog's award winning coverage of Arsenal Women by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblogEXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog – Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

This weekend saw the returns of the Frauen Bundesliga and the WSL (04:50), so Musa and Ryan round-up some results from both, including Olivia Smith's brilliant debut goal, Chelsea winning the season's first blockbuster fixture and late drama in Union's Bundesliga debut. Meanwhile, London City Lionesses head coach, Jocelyn Prêcheur, was interviewed in-game, adding to a trend of new media features rolled out across the Premier League and WSL this season. So, there's a discussion about whether so much media access is needed or wanted in certain sports (11:52) and what effect is has on the viewing experience, as well as the players and coaches. Finally, there's a quick shout for Spain (39:18), who are looking very good in World Cup qualifying.For ad-free podcasts, in full, the Stadio Social Club and much more, you can join us on Patreon.
