Ep. 97 - Jamie Brisick circa 2011
In 2011 Tyler sat down with Jamie Brisick, writer, former editor of Surfing Magazine, former pro surfer and one of surfing's great storytellers. We recorded in front of a live audience at the legendary Anthology Film Archives. The conversation was led by images from Jamie's past that represent pivotal moments in his life up until then. From being bright eyed and optimistic as a pro surfer to the realization that he needed to transition into his next phase, which eventually became writing. Jamie delivers classic tales and folklore of surfing's rich history. This is not the definitive Brisick story. Just a glimpse into a fascinating life. Jamie will be starring in the upcoming Pilgrim x Mexican Summer film "Self Discovery for Social Survival" as the narrator and shredder. His latest book is "Becoming Westerly" and has garnered rave reviews and praise. We hope you enjoy another episode from the "Swell Season Surf Archive."
