Our guest this week was in the epicenter and a standout surfer during the years of Studio 54 AKA “ECHO BEACH”. Hanging with the right crew at the right time, alongside Danny "DK" Kwock, John "FIRM" Gothard, and Jeff Parker! These photogenic Surfers had a new approach wearing bright colors and custom wild prints, with matching air sprays on their boards! The sponsors loved it, the Photographers love it, and the Magazines loved it. This crew not only put Newport Beach on the Map, but also put Quiksilver at the forefront of the industry. Maybe it was all the magazine photos and covers shots our guest got as a Professional Surfer, or maybe it was another reason that he ended up working for Quiksilver! He also had a plethora of other industry jobs including Mossimo, Gotcha, and ASR, but eventually ended up in Media in both print and digital magazines for over 25 years. We are pumped to hear his story and welcome to the show, Mr. Preston “PM” Murray!

Our guest this week is an Industry Veteran that made a huge impact in Surf, Skate, and Streetwear culture with Obey, Loser Machine, and Dark Seas. Kicking off his career in the early 90’s with his first two brands “Flash” and “Square One”, he always had the dream to create a Multi In-House Brand Entity! It just so happens to have Shepard Fairey artwork showed up at his buddy’s screen printing company and he quickly set up a meeting with Shepard, negotiated a deal, and Obey Clothing was born. He was later approached around 2011 by Loser Machine and Dark Seas which they also brought in-house and helped build those Brands to what they are today! We welcome the talented and business guru to the show, Mr. Chris “C-BRO “ Broders!
