Welcome to the Pinch My Salt Podcast – the wildest, funniest, and most brutally honest comedy podcast where surf culture, skateboarding, snowboarding, and board sports collide.

🎙️ Why did Florida surfers get lazy?
🎙️ What really happened with the Pipeline contest?
🎙️ How did boogie boarders, skaters, and snowboarders steal the spotlight?
