  • A Surfer's Guide to Enlightenment with Alastair Thompson

    A Surfer's Guide to Enlightenment with Alastair Thompson
    May 7 2025
    On this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast we meet Alistair Thompson, the author of 'A Surfer's Guide to Enlightenment’, a beautiful and reflective book that blends surfing, spirituality, and self-discovery. It’s part memoir, part philosophy, and full of lessons drawn straight from the ocean. Alistair shares his journey from a life of 'monotonous discomfort' to one enriched by surfing, discussing themes of fear, ego, love, forgiveness, and faith. In his book, he explores everything from fear and ego to love, forgiveness, and faith—all through the lens of the sea. Whether you’re a surfer or not, this conversation is about what it means to start, to fall, to get back up, and to find your wave—whatever that might be. It’s an ode to those seeking self-discovery and meaning in their lives. We hope you enjoy…

    On this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast, we do a deep dive with journalist and podcaster Matt Barr to explore the implications of Patagonia founder Yvonne Chouinard's groundbreaking decision to transfer ownership of the company to entities that prioritize the environment. Matt discusses his three-part podcast documentary series 'The Announcement,' which provides a comprehensive investigation into this transformative corporate model. The conversation tackles whether capitalism can truly be a force for good, the scrutiny faced by Patagonia, and the broader implications for the future of capitalism and sustainability. Tune in to gain valuable insights from Matt Barr's journey, learn about the challenges and benefits of the B Corp status, and understand the critical questions we need to ask about corporate responsibility and environmental stewardship.
