Legendary! Thank you Occ for this really cool interview with Jack 🙂
Great show Billabong! Occ is doing such a awesome job when its not easy to do his job with his own pressures and he is harnessing, always right there with bringing his experience of the world. These guys could talk for days.
Saw Jack and had to watch
great interview. Jack's mention of "Blazing Boards" brought back memories of Occy and and then up and comer luke egan killing it back in the 80s.
Occy’s never sent an email in his life?! Fuppin Hell!!

"Let me make this perfectly clear, I don't consider you a god or godlike in any way."
Awesome!
Stoked to see Jimi's Rainbow Bridge on the shelf. My copy is worn out.
Such a good interview .. so natural, great job Occy! And of course Jack Johnson is such a legend , one of the coolest guys in the planet 🙂

Way to leave us with a smile. Mahalo nui.
Back when “Save Sunset Beach” bumper-stickers used to be all over O’ahu, the thought of The North Shore being developed by some Disney-like touristy resort or something was a nightmare scenario. I am glad it’s still country. It has changed some, of course, but it’s still incredibly beautiful. I love Da North Shore.
Great interview here! Very casual.
Mahalo. 🤙🏻
Worldclass podcast!
the zoom in occys face at 22:00 head gash story 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That was an AWESOME watch.
Jack is a PURE spirit, no doubt. Love his work, just like…
Still have my Iguana video of Occy and his crew.
When I could go into the ocean…
me: wears surf t-shirts and pattern shorts
me: has a weird wild man bun/long hair
me: wears sandals from march-october
me: loves surfing, guitar, and uke
me: adores old surf films by Bruce Brown, Jack McCoy, and of course Occy…
everyone around me in chicago: "why do you look and act like such a dork?"
