Stab Writer Saves Drowning Children In Santa Cruz Boat Crash!
Feb 1100:53:29Tap to summarizeThe week of Holden Trnka is upon us. Buck and Mikey discuss the Pipe CS event (which Holden covered from the tent), a wildly under-rockered boat storming the Steamer Lane lineup (which Holden not only witnessed, but assisted in the life-saving efforts that followed), whether or not Instagram reels are killing our surf boners (Holden says they are), and oh yeah, a few hints about the NEW EPISODE of Stab in the Dark X starring Robert Kelly Slater.
Transcribe →Exclusive Interview: John Florence On Why He Left The Tour
Feb 401:00:30Tap to summarizeMassive three-part ep incoming! Not only did John Florence sit down (exclusively) with Stab's co-founder Sam McIntosh to chat about his recent departure from the tour, and what he'll be doing to grow his brand(s) in the meantime... This ep also features a Kelly Slater Stab in the Dark ep 2 breakdown, where Mikey and Buck discuss board theories, shaper rivalries, and the first elimination (spoiler alert!). Finally, we chat with our guy on the ground in Hawaii about what's been happening in and around the Pipe CS event.
Transcribe →Why JJF's Out, Raglan's In, And A Pipe CS Preview

Transcribe →Joel Tudor Takes Down Hawaiian And Paul Evans Hates Children
Nov 901:01:39Tap to summarizeIn the same week, Joel Tudor took on a major airline (and won), Jaleesa Vincent wrote an explicit rap song about her Pussy (surfboard), and a world junior champ put his life savings into a luxury sunglass brand. Just when you thought surfing was gonna be just fine, Paul Evans joins the pod to excoriate children and tell us when, precisely, our little hobby went tits up. Buy Veia boardbags (with wheels) if you, unlike Paul, prefer convenience to chaos.
Transcribe →The Great British Burn-Off, Explained
Nov 100:42:51Tap to summarizeWhat really happened at the GB Cup this week? Mikey and Buck do their own research and reveal the truth behind the headlines. We also ride shotgun with Mick Fanning, drive deep into the Atacama Desert, and find ourselves face-to-face with surfing's most digitally-inept superhuman. If you listen to this pod, you can support us by supporting: Veia, FCS, Living in Sunshine.
Transcribe →Gabriel Medina Is Not The Father
Oct 2600:51:25Tap to summarizeOne man's miracle is another man's marketing ploy. It was kind of a dark week in surfing, from fake pregnancy announcements to brain tumors to death, but at least we have a little EAST sugar to help it all go down. Mikey and Buck break it all down and give away a new Veia leash to one lucky listener (who we hope is not an incel).
Transcribe →The Oldest-Ever CT Qualifier
Oct 1900:45:42Tap to summarizeTya Zebrowski recently became the youngest-ever CT qualifier at 14 years old. But just quietly, another surfer is on track to become the oldest CT qualifier in the same graduating class. By all accounts, a far more impressive achievement. Also this week: Mikey and Buck rank the greatest surf towns, steal leashes, get up & stand for Jamaican beach rights, and a whole lot more. VEIA GIVEAWAY Do you live in Europe, and want to win a Veia leash or a Stab towel? Send a picture of your worst surf rash (or any rash really) to buck@stabmag.com.
