Jed Smith is a surfer, journalist, and co-host of everyone’s favourite surf podcast  “Ain’t that Swell”, a podcast that celebrates (and challenges) the full spectrum of surf culture. Whilst Jed’s brand of larrikin humour is adored by his legion of podcast fans, there is an obvious paradox in Jed’s article writing which often addresses socio-politics issues with sharp intellect and logical rationale. At age 34, Jed has acquired a stacked resume. He was a journalist and correspondent for VICE news Indonesia, he has written for every major newspaper in Australia,  written and worked for the most respected surf magazines,  and currently, when he is not recording podcasts with co-host Vaughn Blakey, Jed is a part-time employee at STAB surfing magazine. In this week's episode, Jed discusses the long-term impact of the Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) he sustained in his earlier years, the plight of the working class, the financial strain of growing up in a single-parent household, his decision to address his inner-demons by choosing life, and much much more. Sincere, authentic, opinionated, and well researched, Jed is a champion of the people...who has no desire to be a champion of the people.
Enjoy,
Shan

Ty Jeffery is a pure skateboarder.  He  is also a university graduate of Digital Media studies. I always say that THT is NOT a skateboarding podcast, however, I am enamoured by it and drawn to the intricate creativity that it draws out of people. I see it as a vehicle for the expression of character, personality, commitment and dedication. Ty is young, bold and hungry, he possesses a gentle humility, and then a beast is unleashed from deep within when he skates... and it is mesmerising and so exciting to watch. In this week's episode Ty is with me live from King Pin Skateshop to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future. Shout out to Joey Lyons for Co-hosting this week!

**Trigger warning**
Justen bravely outlines how he dealt with (and continues to deal with) the tragic loss of his brother to suicide. The discussion goes from approximately the 16:00-24:30 minute mark. Whilst I believe there is a lot of healing to be had in this discussion, I acknowledge that this can be confronting or triggering so please listen with caution, or avoid. And please, as always, feel free to reach out to myself of Jughead via our platforms or email if you need to chat. We might not have the answers, but we are here to listen, share experiences, and identify. You are not alone.
Big love,
Shan

Brendan is an iconic big wave bodyboarder, pioneer, free-thinker and inspirational human. When Brendan isn’t managing and hustling at the Australian Indigenous Mentoring Experience (AIME), you will find him spending time with his family or maybe even getting his 7 year old daughter barrelled at that rad wave pool down in Melbourne. Brendan is a returning guest on the show and in this week's episode he is with me live and on location to check in, outline his experiences with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), that time he had his head punched-in by a gnarly Hawaiian local in the carpark at Pipeline, and much much more.
