Surf Dudes with Attitude

Aloha, pharmaceutical friends. We have another entrepreneurial episode of California Dreams to talk about here at Surf Dudes with Attitude. We have a confusing plot as the entire gang is really excited (yet again) to tackle a school project. This time, it’s about starting their own business. They somehow land on exploiting Sam’s great grandmother’s legacy AND her entire Asian heritage in one fell swoop. That’s convenient! They steal an old recipe for a cold remedy to cash in on the pervasive flu outbreak happening at PCH. Things get casually racist and we are in store for a pseudo dream sequence, Sly dressed as a germ and ZERO band practice.

James and Peat marvel at the gang's ambition to take on the Medical Industrial Complex while also musing on the legality of their teacher’s seed money for these shoddy businesses. Drink plenty of fluids for this one and call us in the morning. See you at Sharkey’s!!

The mothership has landed. The O.G. of California Dreams, Michael Cade, AKA Sylvestor Winkle, sat down with the crew of Surf Dudes to discuss his tenure as the manager of everyone’s favorite high school band.. Like his character, Michael doesn’t hold back. But, we were both relieved and humbled that he could roll with the punches and didn’t hate us! Unlike his character, he's an incredibly gracious and warm person. We had a great time talking about California Dreams, his storied career and what he’s up to now. He helps answer all of our burning questions from the last few years of doing this podcast: Was Sharkey’s attached to the school? Is Sly an orphan? Where did his sociopathy come from? And would future Sly be indicted in a financial ponzi scheme (definitely yes). 

Though we can’t defend everything his character has said over the years, it could not have come from a nicer person. Thanks for being on the show, Michael! And we look forward to another sit down where we hyper focus on an episode in a zesty roundtable discussion. Possibly with the rest of the cassssstttt??? Stay tuned… See you at Sharkeys!!

Oh hey there, VERY SPECIAL EPISODE. Haven’t seen you for a whole TWO WEEKS. Welcome back, I guess? Tony finds himself in the middle of a gang war as his old friend Darren from COMPTON stirs up a hornets nest when their fellow bandmate JR (whom we never see) is attacked. I kid you not… There is an actual gun in this episode… of California Dreams. There’s not a concert. There’s not a bass slap. There’s not a guitar trill. There’s nary a snare drum pop. But there is an outside shot with a showdown at the CD corral! 

Peat and James try desperately to count the number or people in the final scene that show up in record numbers to solve the American violence epidemic. Oh, and the rest of the band get jobs as singing telegrams and wear gorilla suits to break the tension of this heated episode.. No, we aren’t joking. Make sure you’re strapped! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Watch out, greasers! There’s a new bad boy 30 year old man at PCH. Tommy begins hassling Jake because he wants to be Warchief. It’s worth noting that Tiffany finds this to be a hugely attractive quality in a mate. Just sayin… Jake gets spooked after an accident and becomes a hall monitor at school. Ughhhh, okay. Everyone is not acting like themselves while tripping all over this plot. But, we do get the psychiatrist from the Terminator franchise playing the school principal again. He may or may not be threatened or pregnant. 

James and Peat discuss the merits of school safety, parking lot speedbumps and which racing route is more deadly: Cool Man’s Curve or Devil’s Backbone. Hear for yourself! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Hey there, Chimneys! We’ve coughed up a lung to bring you this very special episode of California Dreams this week. In this after school special PSA, we meet Jake’s cool-as-shit uncle that just so happens to chain smoke every time he is compared to Andrew Dice Clay. Jake picks up the nasty habit while prepping for his big motorcycle contest that we definitely will not see any footage from. Meanwhile, the gang may or may not have some hijinks with a metal detector. Because, WHY NOT? It’s not like we were going to get any music on this episode anyway. 

James and Peat collectively JUST SAY NO to tobacco but wholeheartedly would welcome a sponsorship from Phillip Morris. See you at Sharkey’s!!

WOOF! We got a racially charged, early 90’s, NUANCED episode to talk about. The gang gets history projects that focus on their family lineage. There’s zero music from this so-called band and a lot of storylines that age like fermented milk in the trunk of a scrapyard van. Tony fibs about his past when he’s confronted with slavery.  Sly, of course, also lies but doesn’t learn as much of a lesson. Yes… that tracks. 

This is the first of THREE very special episodes in a row. UGH! But, this is episode 311, so we are allotted at least one reference to everyone’s favorite rap-rock band from Omaha. Timbre is the color of your energy here at California Dreams! James had some choice words after watching this episode and Peat is still waiting for any of these cast members to return our interview requests. Come on! There’s catering! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Choo choo!! On this monthly edition of Side Project, we’re gassing up the ol’ girl to fly us out to the Windy City to talk about Perfect Strangers! We are joined by siblings Imram and Sophia from the Dance of Joy podcast to investigate the wacky cousins Larry and Balki in the sixth season episode “Out of Sync”. Inexplicably, Balki gets a record deal and becomes a hip hopper. Problems arise when they don’t read the fine print and the harsh reality of the music business rears its ugly tentacles. 

James is abuzz with excitement getting to watch a show that actually features some music. Peat is still puzzled over who wrote the lyrics to this musical number. Luckily, our Perfect Stranger experts shed a little light on any lingering questions. They were an absolute blast to have on our show. We might decide to join forces and get an apartment above them with matchy floral designs and live happily ever after. Stay tuned! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Calling all Surfers with abandonment issues… this episode is for YOU. We see another few drops in the bucket of Tiffany’s vitriol as we talk about the California Dreams episode “Daddy’s Girl”. If you’re catching up, Tiffany’s mom abandoned her when she was young. Then, she came back and teased her with affection a life in New York City, only to be dropped again. So, it’s just been Tiff and her pops since then. Now Tiff’s dad finally finds a fellow wet biologist for romance but now their daddy/daughter time is massively interrupted! Will they strike some equilibrium in the Smith Aquarium Household? Meanwhile, Mark has a B-plot shoehorned in here where he basically invents Tinder and incepts the idea that Jake/Lorena and Tony/Sam are a bad couple. One of those is a thousand percent correct, by the way. 

James chimes in from middle America in Nebraska and Peat vehemently defends this episode, despite having some of the WORST guitar miming by Jake that we’ve seen yet. Tiff Tock… this time bomb of RAGE is about to explode. See you at Sharkey’s!!

We did it. We pulled it off. After narrowly escaping a real life Yeti last week, we have had to call in reinforcements to tackle this week’s episode. Our former co-host and amazing bezzie, Z (Zac Fable) pops back in to discuss this episode of California Dreams. And we are all LIVE in the same room!! The gang takes a television class at school and wouldn’t you know it, Tony and Sly get some of that sick syndication money when their show is noticed by a weirdly present TV executive in the classroom. How will they maintain work/school/life/band balance? Can their friendship survive being local public access celebrities?

This is the first time all three Surf Dude hosts have sat in a room together. It’s something to marvel at! The power of this show, am I right? Peat has some questions about the child protection measures for these television contracts. James wants to know why Mark is playing a stoner in a skit. And Zac is wondering who the hell this Mark person even is! Lots to delve and dive into this week, folks. See you at Sharkey’s!!
