This is the Fitting in with with Cake Richie podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Fitz.

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Let's talk about what I think might be the most
aausy thing I've ever seen. As you know, I was
in Barron Bay over the weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Man, I love to.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Get up to Byron chase a break mate.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
You know what it's like.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
You felt naked without my board there. I didn't take
it with me, but I spent the weekend just chasing
the green room. You know. First time I ever served,
I think I was at Watergoes was a left to
right break your break and left to right on the
triple thruster. Yeah, and you're up there for a birthday party.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
It was a digest station.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
That's the reason you're up there for the free food
and the drink.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Okay, and that's why you went up there, all right?

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Well I did get a swim in Okay, and I
was down at water Goes. What's interesting there was a
couple of waves breaking out the back and I was
just playing in the shallows, splashing around like an untrained.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Seal just this.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Do you know what I did too? I left the
sun glass on the plane, so I lost them, and
I forgot to pack shorts. So I'm in Mandy's to
cry a face jest, like it's the ugliest thing you
could have thought of.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, I'm just in Malulu Lemons. Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Anyway, so I decided to swim out a little bit
far because there's some other people that are up there
for the weekend in the shallows, and I didn't want
to embarrass myself in Mandy's. So I swim out and
I can see this guy and he's sitting on his surfboard,
and I thought, oh, he must be filming himself because
I can see something mounted to the front of his

(01:35):
surfboard and it was like a big surfboard, like your Classic.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Nine, your Malibu, your mouth, your male.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
So I'm looking at it and I'm swimming out to it,
and I'm thinking he.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Got going on there.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
All of a sudden, I see him reach forward and
he grabs a beer out of the beer holder like
a stubby holder, and has a drink of beer out
of the can and puts it back into the holder
on the front of the board.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
You can't have a you can't have a beer holder
on your board.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
So I'm looking at this guy thinking all right, so
it's definitely a go promount he just must be really
keen to maybe he's a YouTuber. He's drinking beer while
on his surfboard. So I'm fascinated by what this guy's doing.
I'm thinking, this is the most impractical invention I've ever seen.
You fall over, you fall off your board, your beer

(02:33):
goes down, and you've lost everything. So then I'm watching him.
He sits on his board till he finishes his beer,
then surfs into the shore where he's got a little
eskie and his kids and his wife are playing on
the beach. He yells at his kid, who goes and.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Gets him a bit, grabs anne.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Grabs another one, puts it on the board, paddles back out,
and then sits on the board, you know, legs either side,
drinking his beer until he's finished it and catches another wave.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
In don't mess with the locals. And I didn't know
whether to celebrated or.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Think he was an absolute disgrace, the fact that he
sent his kid to the ski two when he got
to the shore because he couldn't be more than undoing
his leg rope.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
Did you see the guy that took his kid out
to pipeline in Hawaii?

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Oh Jesus, So the kid.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Was around about two years of age and he was
a local surfer and wanted his kid to experience a
tube pipeline.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Now, pipeline's really dangerous. Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
So he takes the kid out there. He actually gets
on a wave, but then the wave crashes over the
top of him and then he's basically throwing his child
above the waves to get past the next waves coming in.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
The kid nearly drowned. Oh my god, there's a video
of it. It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
See if that had happened in Australia, that kid would
have had a had a.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Beer sort of gaffer taped to his hand.
