  • Surfonomics and Ocean Conservation with Chad Nelsen

    Surfonomics and Ocean Conservation with Chad Nelsen
    Apr 16 2024

    For the final episode of Season Two, Dr. Chad Nelsen, CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, and I discuss "surfonomics", the threats our oceans and coasts face, and how surfing can play a large role in conserving our planet.

    Chad earned his Ph.D. in Environmental Science and Engineering from UCLA, and has been working in ocean and coastal conservation for over 25 years, working at the intersection of advocacy, ocean recreation, and grassroots organizing. His research at UCLA led him to become a founder in the field of “surfonomics,” which studies the economic value of surfing and ocean recreation.

  • The History of the Surf Shop with Katie Hunt

    The History of the Surf Shop with Katie Hunt
    Apr 2 2024

    For this episode, I am joined by surf historian Katie Hunt. Katie is in the home stretch of her History Ph.D. at the University of Kent. She’s an avid surfer at her home break in North Devon. That is…when the waves are good.

    In this episode, Katie offers us a brief history of the “surf shop,” as well as an overview of its founding years in California from 1935 to 1959—an era in California surfing history considered the golden years of isolated nomadic surf communities. We also dig into the “feeling” one gets from being in a surf shop, and how surf shops in non-coastal towns can still engender a feeling of nostalgia to surfers longing to be in the water.
