Chad & JT also share the story behind their WSL series Get Sent, getting roasted by surfers online, pranking the US Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, working with Strider Wilson, recreating Fast & Furious scenes at car shows, meeting Vin Diesel at a wedding, and turning uncomfortable public interactions into comedy. The boys debate whether the traditional surf movie is dead, why Instagram and YouTube clips have taken over surfing, the most influential surf films ever made, Tom Curren’s Searching for Tom Curren, the Taylor Steele era, Bruce Irons’ mysterious kickflip Mandela effect, Dane Reynolds’ place in modern surf culture, and whether podcasts are now more core than surf vlogs.

EP 134| Did Kelly Slater Buy His Way Into Tahiti?! | Pinch My Salt
Kelly Slater’s controversial Tahiti wild card, Outerknown’s connection to the WSL event, and the future of professional surfing lead this episode of the Pinch My Salt surf podcast. Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan debate whether Kelly Slater deserves the Tahiti Pro wild card, whether a sponsor should be able to put its own co-founder into a World Surf League contest, and whether the 11-time world champion can still win in heavy Tahiti barrels. We also break down the biggest surf news, viral surfing clips, surf culture debates, and pro surfing controversies: Louis Vuitton and Pharrell bringing Mikey February, Raimana and twin-fin surfboards into high fashion; Jack Johnson getting caught riding a soft-top surfboard; Rob Machado’s effortless surfing technique and pop-up; Kai Lenny’s surf training; wave-pool airs versus real ocean surfing; surf etiquette, women getting waves, dangerous kooks, Blue Crush, Keala Kennelly, Alana Blanchard, women’s surf history, Paris Hilton surfing a wave pool, WSL judging, Griffin Colapinto, Ethan Ewing, Jack Robinson, Tom Curren, Skip Frye and the question every core surfer is asking—is surf culture dying? This is surf comedy, surf commentary and honest surf-industry talk for fans of WSL surfing, classic surf videos, surf podcasts and core surf culture worldwide. Did Kelly Slater earn the Tahiti wild card—or did Kelly and Outerknown find a way to give themselves a spot in the contest? Sterling and Ryan agree that surfing is better with Kelly in it, but question whether another young Tahitian or up-and-coming surfer should have received the opportunity. The boys also discuss why professional surfing struggles to create stars, whether the WSL needs legendary surfers such as Kelly Slater, Tom Curren and Tom Carroll judging events, and why current surf contests feel disconnected from the culture that created them. Drop your opinion in the comments: 🏄 Does Kelly deserve the Tahiti wild card? 🌊 Could Kelly Slater actually win the event? ⚖️ Should former world champions judge WSL contests? 💀 Is surf culture really dying?

Ep 130 | Blair Conklin Takes Us Behind the Scenes on the Biggest Swell in Decades| Pinch My Salt
The Wedge got so big surfers pulled out 9-foot guns—and Blair Conklin says it was some of the biggest surf he has seen there in his lifetime. In this episode of the Pinch My Salt podcast, Blair breaks down the historic Wedge swell at Newport Beach, why it may have been the biggest in over a decade, and how it compared to Hurricane Marie. Blair takes Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan inside the chaos: two waves colliding, unpredictable takeoff zones, massive shorebreak, Hawaiian chargers, Koa Rothman, a bodyboarder throwing a double backflip, and the split-second positioning needed to catch one of California’s most dangerous waves. The three-time United Skim Tour World Champion and legendary Vic winner also talks about growing up skimboarding in Laguna Beach and helping push skimboarding into the viral era. The conversation gets into Tfue’s skimboarding roots, Bill Bryan’s influence, monkey crawling, surfers versus skimmers, why unfinished skimboard waves still count, novelty waves, wave pools, and whether skimboarding might actually be harder than surfing. This is a full breakdown of The Wedge, modern skimboarding, surf culture, and the strange world where shorebreak specialists become some of the most entertaining athletes in action sports. Blair also reveals what makes The Wedge so difficult when it gets this big, who dominated the historic swell, and why positioning at the exact point where two waves collide can be both terrifying and nearly impossible. PLUS: Laird Hamilton’s legendary Malibu Pier shoot Tfue before he became a gaming superstar The truth about surfers versus skimboarders Why skimboarding clips go viral Bill Bryan’s influence on modern skimboarding The monkey crawl comeback Big-wave boards at The Wedge Koa Rothman charging California The future of skimboarding and novelty waves Why skimmers apparently don’t have to land anything Was this the biggest Wedge swell since Hurricane Marie?

EP 129 | Which Surfer Is Kelly Slater’s Eskimo Bro? | Pinch My Salt
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.

EP 128 | Who Would Actually Buy the WSL? | Pinch My Salt
Is the World Surf League actually for sale… and if so, who in the world is buying it? On this episode of Pinch My Salt, Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan dive into the possible sale of the WSL, the future of professional surfing, and whether competitive surfing lost its core audience when the ASP became the World Surf League. Could ESPN buy the WSL? Could wave pools, YouTube surf content, or a UFC-style reality show save pro surfing? Or is the surf contest world too niche, too expensive, and too disconnected from real surf culture? We talk WSL business rumors, surf industry drama, why nobody watches contests live anymore, Kelly Slater, Jack Johnson, Tom Curren dream trips, core lords, surf skating, Hawaiian surf culture, surf addiction, and why surfing might be the most magical and destructive sport on earth. If you love surfing, surf comedy, surf podcasts, WSL drama, pro surfing history, wave pools, surf culture debates, and two Florida surf cousins trying to figure out who ruined the tour… this episode is for you.

EP 127 | Tom Carroll on Surfing's BIGGEST Shift Coming | Pinch My Salt
Tom Carroll joins Pinch My Salt to talk about one of the biggest shifts happening in surfing right now: wave pools, the future of surf contests, the WSL, and whether competitive surfing is about to change forever. In this episode, Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan dive into wave pool surfing, the Stab air contest, Huey Vaughn’s insane aerial progression, the WSL’s New Zealand/Raglan event struggles, flat surf contests, modern surf judging, the future of surf competitions, and why wave pools might become the next major stage for professional surfing. Tom Carroll, two-time world champion and one of surfing’s most respected legends, drops in to talk about winning the first professional wave pool contest in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 1985, beating Derek Ho, and what that strange moment in surf history says about where surfing is headed now. TC breaks down the energy of wave pools, the pressure of performing in front of a close crowd, Kelly Slater’s wave pool, Surf Ranch, the dream of pressing a button for perfect waves, and whether surfers still have the patience to wait on the ocean. The boys also get into Sterling turning 40, surf legacy, getting older, pro surfers not mattering, Jack Johnson allegedly cussing, John John Florence’s fake music career, Walton Goggins aura, Kimana’s big-man power surfing, soft top chaos, public breastfeeding disasters, seaweed trauma, and the possibility of a future wave pool tour with DJs, celebrities, pool parties, and actual entertainment.

Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan call Luke live from Raglan to get the inside scoop on what was really happening behind the scenes at the contest, from boring heats and bad conditions to pro surfer energy, local New Zealand surf culture, WSL event vibes, and whether the whole thing was a huge fail or just classic surfing chaos. In this episode of the Pinch My Salt Podcast, Sterling Spencer and Ryan Spencer roast, react, and break down the biggest surf clips of the week, including the WSL quietly selling its stake in the Kelly Slater Surf Ranch, the future of wave pools, Filipe Toledo riding a twin fin in competition, Kelly Slater’s old-school Gold Coast surfing, Tom Curren’s legendary style, Dane Kealoha footage, shark chase clips, garage surf training, skimboarding madness, pro surfers becoming real estate agents, and the eternal question: is modern competitive surfing actually fun to watch? Luke Cederman brings the perfect Raglan chaos to the show as the guys ask what the WSL New Zealand event was really like from inside the scene. Was the contest boring? Were the waves bad? Were the pros partying? Was Gabriel Medina actually staying in a shed? And is Raglan Surf Report officially the mayor of New Zealand surf comedy?

Jack Johnson joins Pinch My Salt for a hilarious, deep, and surprisingly surf-core conversation about Kelly Slater, The Surfers band, Tom Curren, Rob Machado, Peter King, North Shore surf culture, Banana Pancakes, Thicker Than Water, Loose Change, Pipeline, Backdoor, Tamayo Perry, surf films, Hawaiian music, and the wild story of how Jack Johnson may have accidentally been left out of Kelly Slater’s surf supergroup. In this episode, Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan sit down with Jack Johnson to talk about his early days as a surfer, filmmaker, musician, and North Shore kid before he became one of the most recognizable singer-songwriters in the world. Jack tells the story of playing bass in the original version of The Surfers with Kelly Slater singing, Tom Curren on drums, Rob Machado and Peter King on guitar, and how somehow he and Curren never got the call when the record happened. The boys also get into Banana Pancakes, Jack’s surf movie roots, getting roasted by Saturday Night Live, refusing to wear a fedora, surfing with Kelly Slater, getting humbled at Pipeline, Hawaiian slack-key guitar, and why Jack Johnson’s music became the nervous-system regulator for an entire generation of surfers.
