Rols: "So... waves push the warm water in to the land"Craig: [patiently] "No mate, again, swell doesn't move the water, the swell moves through the water."Rols: "Ohhhh. Of course. Right on."In spite of the verbatim extract above, this was hopefully an interesting chat to listen to, because Craig Brokensha is an absolute wealth of ocean knowledge an…

Real word? Nope. Know what it means but? Of COURSE.Another week and another round of enjoyably questionable climate headlines, including the dark art of burning feces to make electricity, and whether gluing your cranium to a painting will help people take you more seriously.Tis a rich world out there people! And our accomatosis will not last foreve…

Ahoy! Well it's been a hot minute since we've wagged chins like this. First pod update in a while and frankly I just don't think my thoughts woulda been all that helpful to youse in the interim. I mean they really might actually not be helpful to you ever. Hopefully not though and you get something out of this! Even if it's just feeling a bit bette…

Where oh where would we be without surfing, to practice thinking thoughts, and where oh where would we be without this podcast, to call ourselves out for thinking the most silly ones.*And then occasionally - just occasionally - explore the environmental narrative of Australia just long enough to hear a big echoey thunk, and realise we've actually..…

Another journey to the bottom of the brain ocean! More thinking thoughts and practicing doing life for the first time. More incisive locked down surf analysis. Exploration of Australia’s abysmal environmental reputation and the misconception of footprint reduction as emotionally prohibitive, rather than the reality (eternally liberating.). Also hol…

Is wearing excessive aftershave in the surf ok? What’s the real relationship between news and government? Will we really outrun climate change?

In my view there’s no overstating the significance of surfing as the holy grail of mental health preservation. I reckon even the shittiest surf is better than no surf at all, for the simple reason of connection time. Vibing with nature, plugging into the mainframe, self-observation/sublimation/preservation, whatever you want to call it... for vital…

Hmm. Critical agenda items this bulletin: surfing, time traveling, surfing, bathymetry, surfing, mental health, surfing, reality tv, more surfing, more rubbish, more surfing? The usual I suppose.PS bathymetry is the broad study of oceanic topography as opposed to the anecdotal idiosyncrasies of the sandbanks at my local. Here’s a helpful link —> ht…

This chat was with my friend Inde Halligan and we dove straaaaaaaaaaaight into the deep end of the pool for a chat about life and all of its confusing eccentricities.Inde is one of the fiercest and most committed climate warriors I’ve ever met, and nothing’s off limits to chat about which always makes for a fun yarn. I’ll let what we spoke about do…

I’ve been wondering if maybe the meaning of life is to accept in any given moment that we’re hurtling towards oblivion no matter what, and still be able to have a laugh about things. N’mean?So what’d we talk about this episode. Hmm. Greta Thunderbird. How I’m a hypocrite. Below Deck. Why I’m a hypocrite. E-bikes. Emissions reduction targets. Chris …

Crumbs. Fully lost the plot with this one. But oi, just trying me best! Just trying my best to be me, and keep being me, and be nothing but myself. Is that a Macy Gray lyric? MaYbe. Cool.

“I’m here to put myself out of a job.”Being the National Campaign Director for Surfrider Foundation is a seriously demanding gig.You know how at work sometimes you can have a lazy day, fire off a few emails, make a couple of calls, but really, you know that you’re full tilt mindsurfing some faraway sandbank and only putting in about 40% effort?Yeah…

My grandma will be so disappointed in me for this episode I reckon. Probably even my regular ma too. I think I dropped so many more f bombs than usual - maybe Chef Ramsay really is rubbing off on me - but swear words are just too much fun sometimes.Anyway this critical bulletin is pretty much all about surfing, but also covers the following urgent …

This is an interview with the ABC from during my trip last year and I’m pretty sure I answered um to EVERY question like the cool and not-5-years-old bloke that I am. Thanks to my friend Jack for reaching out and giving me this portal through time!***>>>@lucky__rolandتوسط lucky roland

I think I really ran my mouth with this one.I’m actually a bit worried this week’s podcast got overly crass, and I know there was an inordinate amount of rude language - one beer instead of my usual pink lemonade and that’s what happens I guess - thing is I can’t really stomach listening back to it to check but I think I talked about Jesus a lot?

GOT DREAMS?!Still can’t stop thinking about rubbish. I’ve been thinking heaps about plastic in particular, cause that’s what the most scary rubbish is made of and everything.Plastic in the sea is so gnarly because it must look SO DELICIOUS to marine animals. Think about it. All squidgy, brightly coloured... balloons must look like lollies to turtle…

LEAH IS A WEAPON HUMAN.I didn’t actually mean to type that in caps, but then I realised the caps was actually plenty appropriate. I love shooting the breeze with this woman.

Hey wrinkly old future rols, dial into this with the chip in your head or whatever autonomous thought machine you’ve had installed by 2100... or wait, actually maybe disconnect it. That sounds like a more realistic instruction for 85 years time. The nonsense you said in this recording is almost certainly not allowed anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ WHALE TRACKER…

GDAAAAAAAAAAAAY 2021I’ve realised I’m just full tilt obsessed with rubbish, mainly pollution and everything, but also mainly how much of it I can talk.And when I say I love talking to people, OBVIOUSLY I’m including all the people in my head.Cool. And nice!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i2eZaJsC7gتوسط lucky roland

Aren’t ambiguous words like “cool” and “weird” kind of unhelpful in their ubiquity? Especially in terms of the power words can have on how depressed or anxious we feel?This was a pretty big way to round out the year for me; easily one of the most meaningful conversations I’ve ever had (let alone recorded).I’m hugely thankful to Nick for making time…

This man is a fair dinkum icon of surfing right across the globe. Mctavish surfboards are revered for their insane quality of craftsmanship, refined over more than 60 years (..!!!) in the shaping bay.Bob is a fizzy, excitable and positive human being who was an absolute pleasure to talk to. I’m not sure you’ll hear a more genuine demonstration of h…

Nico Kypreos made me - barista of 11 years, espresso bar owner of 5 - feel like my love for coffee is in fact only a vague interest. This bloke full tilt lives and breathes it.And the most beautiful thing about Nico’s obsession with coffee is what I observed to be his use of it as a vehicle to change his world for the better. Marvell St is the epit…

Talking about the unresolved genocide of Australia’s First Nations is fraught with social peril, not least for a white bloke of insane privilege like me. But I definitely don’t think that’s a valid reason not to discuss it!Truth is, this episode is big.I don’t want you to listen to it because it’s gonna give me another click or play or subscriber o…

Jimmy Cocking heads up the Arid Lands Environment Centre, but only when he’s not directing energy down the myriad of other channels along his equilibrium of environmental integrity.

G’daaaaaaaaaay MATES!This episode is with Ngangiwumirr and Arrende woman Rayleen Brown, eminent Australian authority on native food.As far as social efficiency goes, Rayleen’s industry seems like a total no brainer to me. Prioritising wild-harvested native foods with indigenous conservation techniques is such a powerful opportunity to contend with …

I think my excitement got in my way a little bit this conversation! I was frothing so hard on the opportunity to talk to this bloke, but also uncomfortably aware of how time-critical his schedule was, and how talking to a completely uneducated armchair scientist like me ranked very, very, very low as a priority. Dr Charlie Huveneers is a professor …

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND we're back.Sorry for the long intermission. I've been doing some stuff! Mainly goose-stepping through 2020 like everyone else, but also resolving myself towards a new understanding of the relationship between environmentalism and mental health.You'll notice this has given way to a new title, a new theme, a whole new beginning. It'…

This is a #sunkenplace recording from last week with my pal/wise uncle @antoineaustin.Sure, we talked a little bit about colonAvirus, but mainly we DIDN’T talk about coronalvirus, because how fkn boring is that to hear/see/read all the bloody time!!Instead, we sat down and talked supreme shit about gaming addictions.Every face-to-face conversation …

Had a responsible and socially-distanced chinwag with my mate Fob the other day. No prizes for guessing where we podcasted from - that’s right, the sunken place, the bottom of the bloody ocean of madness that is the Coronavirus-ridden world of 2020.Enjoy our uneducated and impassioned analysis of pandemic-life!#thesunkenplace #fobandrols…

Leah and I have been mates for a good while now. She is the weapon behind @leahsmark_illustration and a gangster eco ninja.
