Come join the narrative as the WSL crowns a new king of Lemoore…
If you’re reading this, it’s one am in Australia and the hot coconut oil has cooled on my body and left a pleasing sheen, although I’m four-and-a-half hours from opening my eyes.
You, I imagine, live in America or Europe and the sun is a fantastic citrus in the sky.
Over the course of two days of surfing, we’ve seen, on day one, “MEDINA MAKES REST OF FIELD LOOK HESITANT, INCOMPETENT, DISINTERESTED, ANXIOUS, OVERWHELMED, WEAK!”, the theme obvious, and, yesterday, “A HALF-DANGLING, HALF-SUCKED COCK AT A WEDDING!”, a reference to the “feelings of despair and frustration from the (diminishing) legion of hard-core surf fans who have stuck with the broadcast from the basin.”
Today?
Join the narrative below?
And I’ll see y’all a little later.

that pirate stream was pretty boring I have to say, if you wanted to replace the commentators, well you have to comment what was happening… as boring as it is, you did not have to hype it up like the actual WSL commentators but instead you talked about shark stories and phone calls to who ever it was, that just another of your podcast, I though you would actually comment the action…
Every little bit doesn’t help.
I’m sure it would be full of all sorts of crap, considering it would most likely have been written by Kelly himself
Driving a homo chariot in a pool is hardly a specialist skill
Any Lemoorian meth head could do the job just as well
Back scratching and whatever else that may go on behind closed doors seems to be Kelly’s thing though, so maybe he did hook up with an immigration brother to hook a brotha up..
Important question for DLee Scales: the manscaping shaver….is it ‘taint friendly?
Felt like I was hanging out
I agree more guests,more booze and a full size cut out of crying Jordy perched on the couch is a must
BGs got a stake. Good or bad. We’re the people.
Amazing performance on both sides of the draw.
But, Rosie (be still my beating heart) has been my highlight of the event.
Resplendent yesterday in a floral blue & white ankle-length gown, headphones and specs. Today: radiant in a salmon & white scalloped pleat (I think that’s what it would be termed?) ankle-length gown.
I’m throwing it out there: is she pregnant?
Yep. I mashed that B.
… apologies Richardo, I don’t understand your reply. English please mate.
Ashton is standing in front of me.
What do I do?
Seek autograph!
A pocket sized reclaimed wood coffee table would be super handy in such circumstance.
By open his hearts and open the third eye for the unconscious mind, brazilian surfers had acknowledged and achieve that kind of power!!!
This power can also be achieved by you!
You can also perform airs, reverses, 570, barrel stalls, power hacks, desengage fins, tail slides…
But you have to believe it…
Believe, now!!!
I wish you guys had set this in stone earlier! Or did I miss the memo?
I’m predicting LTs seminal piece today.
especially if he lives near this exploding factory: https://www.newsweek.com/fi…
Lakey would have been solid mid-pack in the men’s final.
Barton criticises Fil, says he was below expectations, gets shut down by the other crew and almost apologized. Positive wall of noise.
Didn’t he get second?
He did get a second. But it wasn’t a close second, and Gabby was the only surfer who brought anything. Every other performance was below expectations, worse than last year except JW sticking his spin.
There is a lot of criticism left unsaid. Compare this to the post show of a footy game. Everyone cops a bit of it. Its part of the catharsis.
I’m back! Next damned time we’re gonna go a full ten hours with guests coming by in real life and getting boozed. Hemi calling most the action.
Great first run, looking forward to the next one!
The Pirate Stream was better than I expected. You all under promised and over delivered
I vote for an all-child commentary team
Huzzah to that. Hemingway. Faulkner and Kafka-Dickens. All 3 of the Smith kids front and center
Kafka-Dickens was an inspired name choice.
I reckon just put the guests on a tighter leash
Or a Chas Choke Chain™ with aftermarket Shock Collar
I missed it all. Asleep.
My sincere apologies.
Reminded me of the Seinfeld show when Kramer tried to recreate the Merv Griffen show.
Please ban the parent of that child (and the child) from coming anywhere near a microphone and camera ever again
meanwhile in the South Pacific, JJf has no idea this contest is even happening.
Who was on the back of the ski with Gabby? Thought he was going to rock a family wave.
Maybe he did, we never saw the right.
Typical WSL. A bit of human interaction, a bit of fun and they cut to an add break.
little sis?
Maybe,
Sofia
Am I the only one that goes full screen in the interviews in the hope that Rosie might be in the frame?

Gabriel became world champ the moment JJ’s ACL ruptured in Brazil.
Yep, Gabriel’s Beutiful, dead eyed run starts now. I expect pipe to be anti climatic unfortunately.
It would be funny if Gabriel started worse and worse each year but still ended up winning titles. 4 Back to back wins etc
