Howdy team.
Did you know that Martin Potter retired? Us neither! But, no one really seems to care that one of sports' worst commentators retired from throwing caution to the wind and more pizzazz. Joe Turpel is apparently not thrilled. He is currently looking for a new sidekick he can introduce as the "1989 world champ". The search continues.
Now, to retirements that matter. Many men and one lady ride into the sunset, leaving Elo's professional surfing behind for a brighter, more prosperous life. Some call it "retirement. Others call it a break. Other's are not sure yet what to call it. Happiness and sadness all wrapped up into one glorious tear-soaked episode of The Duct Tape Theory.
Have the tissues ready as we're recycling some of our fondest memories of the silverback gorilla of the Brazilian Storm, Adriano de Souza, Bogan Sweetheart, Mikey Wright, Burleigh Heads street fighter, Jeremy Flores, 0.5 of surfing's power couple, Jack Freestone, Bronte, who?, Macaulay and while undecided, Australia's next prime minister Ace Buchan.
Breakups, sexism and the MFP (most forgettable person) are making an appearance in Episode 3 alongside why surfers run to the beach in an attempt to train for a marathon.
This episode is sponsored by 1989 World Champ Martin Potter… Okay, just joking. Cause that would be silly.
