[@NathanFlorence]

Road to berts 20ft jaws wave! Lets go!!

[@jeffjohnson6192]

I would pay 10 grand to watch that live

[@TheWiteshark]

Extremely high chance of entry, exit not so much

[@Yahyoukamu]

For sure that was Kala that told them off when they were late.

[@timolean5846]

Would love to see the Florence brothers surfing either a hurricane swell or big winter swell in jersey.

[@logancravey7640]

Please make that trip happen!

[@zoardjanko]

Zorab!

[@bigmikegrows408]

Legend

[@TheWiteshark]

Zorb haha

[@jasonw2580]

Zoard you are the man ! Legendary KZbin duo

[@alikajohnson9250]

🤙🏽Chee zoard! Well done. This is sick

[@jasonw2580]

A Bert and Nathan vlog would be the best comedic duo KZbin has ever seen!

[@does_it_matter_]

One of my favorite Bert casts. Its really dope seeing his deeep interest. Truley fascinated

[@craigcappel90]

This was your best podcast yet .

[@dkschrei]

Awesome video and Nate is so open and honest about his life. Been watching his YT for years and you would think he lives a dream life but there is a bunch of reality he shares. Chasing swells and not having sponsors pay is a thing and i can relate. Just because he is a Florence and his brother is a world champ doesn't mean Nate lives the easy life, dude worked for everything he has achieved. Mad respect.

[@jessedrake5385]

I can listen to these two all day twice on Sundays bring them back bring his brother have a three-way podcast we need more of this energy

[@kylew1761]

So happy to see this, I love Nathan Florence and I literally watched all those same surf vlogs on KZbin a d recently started surfing. Bert did an incredible job of interviewing him and asked so many questions that I wondered about too. Amazing podcast

[@showtime951]

I have been following the professional surfing scene as a waterman for nearly 50 years and count many ex-professionals and a handful of World Champions as personal friends. There has never been a time in history when the surfing has been so good, the personalities so compelling, and the atmosphere so civilized. Guys like Nate and John Florence, Koa Rothman, Eli Olson, and legends Laird Hamilton and Kelly Slater are tremendous men and true role models for adults and children. Let me know before you head over to Jaws, Bert. I would like to be able to give you a nice firm handshake and a soft gentle kiss on the forehead before saying Aloha, forever.

[@danielbrennan4026]

Bert, you may enjoy talking to Griffin Colapinto who is Neal and Kevin Brennan's first cousin.

[@TheBaustin]

This needs to happen. Tell the poop story to a whole new group of people outside surfing.

[@dantedante21]

griffs sick hime and his brother have a vlog too

[@westaylor6360]

HAHAHAHAHA Getting Griff to string more than a dozen understandable words together could be tricky though... Nice guy, but hardly a secret he's not exactly the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree hehe Bong on bro

[@trippledpoetry2937]

That’d be hilarious

[@westaylor6360]

Hey Bert Titus Kinimaka Is the guy who broke his femur during the Eddie comp at Waimea in the '80's. He's from the island of Kauai Some mates of mine used to live next door to him in the good old bad old good old days hahaha... (not one of the Aikau boys sorry)

[@yobum1894]

When he asked Bert if it was a “left or a right” Bert had no clue what he was talking about lmao

[@adamd.6698]

Bert probably thinks goofy foot is a bit 🤣

[@thismothafuckasaid7304]

Surprised didn't scream "left"..bc paranoid about anything associated w/ the Right, nowadays.

[@jbgin5990]

@@thismothafuckasaid7304 hilarious

[@EllEss331]

What a great interview! You asked all the questions I was interested in hearing, just everything! I'm a 66 yr old land-locked Grandma who swims laps & works out at the Y everyday. Biggest wave I get is when someone kicks hard in the lane next to me or drops a cannonball into the water. I right with ya, Bert. I've fallen down the surf rabbit hole & CAN NOT get enough of surf vlogs, videos, & podcasts. ADDICTED & I LOVE them! I started watching JOB and Ben Gravy. Now I watch and follow so many pro surfers. What a great bunch of humans! Watching surf videos is how I found you & now I follow you, also.

[@wisdomoverfear2685]

I was surfing a massive south swell on Hermosa beach Costa Rica on June 9th 1995 (or maybe it was 96' ?) as we where out surfing the biggest waves a couple kids from the Gulf coast had ever seen and it was easily double overhead (we where way out of our league !) ! Then the swell really hit and it went from 10-12 foot up to 15-20 foot sets ! Some sets looked like they where 40 foot on the face ! Me and my friend both thought for sure we where going to die ! When these sets would com rolling in you could see them a mile away..........and no matter how hard we'd paddle they would always break outside us and we'd get completely ragdolled ! We didn't die that day and man let me tell you the beers tasted like honey that whole night ! I was on a 6'4" short board ! Ha ! Now I'm 52 and disabled and when I look back .........that was truly living and I only just exists now ........not really living ! Time to get wet again even if it's only in 3 foot surf !

[@rocknjock9300]

This has to be one of the best podcasts ever. For the last couple of years I dealt with eye surgeries not being able to see. Being an artist/illustrator I was at my lowest. Nathan, JOB, Koa & Makua Rothman’s vlogs got me through it. It was blurry blue with dots but the positive attitudes got me through it. Now I have my vision back & getting my life back.

[@JoeAnklam]

lmao this is the collab I did not even know I needed in my life

[@JaysWave75]

HOLY SHIT! I love it when my worlds collide! Comedy and surfing go together-always have! Can't wait to watch this!

[@BenConsidine]

As a surfer and watching Bert's stuff it's cool to see these two cross paths - great stuff man, yewww!

[@michaelfabiano6789]

This was one of my favorites! Great podcast!!

[@joewat3982]

Bert, it's awesome to see your energy & ambition to try new sports. Keep improving your fitness & don't let Tom's accident spook you into just drinking/observing/producing. 🤙

[@BassChalice7]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. ever since you mentioned it on two bears i’ve been so psyched!!!!

[@JohnnyD30]

I relate to bert so much on this. Find surfing so fascinating, but can barely get up 😂 great pod 🤙🏼

[@alyssaawilliams]

Awesome possum, just the vibe I needed ❤️ Lots of love from British Columbia

[@chrisnissen3435]

[@333JPF333]

About time you have Nathan on the pod!

[@bcalyore]

Awesome episode! Nathan's youtube is awesome, can't wait to see the Tahiti trip!

[@Banks4004]

"what's the deal with sharks?" lololol

[@BillyWarpinjur]

Bert, remember the mullet runs in the 70's? Sitting in chum in East Coast Fla.

[@billybankhead02]

I got bumped 3 years ago in the Bahamas by a sea turtle not knowing it was a sea turtle until after and man did I run on water😂😂

[@50yroldgrom]

Saw your job interview,it rocked.plenty of fun waves on east coast of Florida.have a catch surf board for you to use.

[@sugewhitejacoby8654]

I graduated HS in Hawaii in the 80s. Kill Haole day was a thing! Especially with people like Koa dad!

[@johndayborn]

Really liked this one.

[@Pow329]

As a surfer and avid comedy fan, yes!

[@dannylovato3248]

Damn! I can't believe I missed this... Great interview, Bert!! Keep taking us with you, Nathan!!

[@logancravey7640]

YOU HAVE TO GO ON A TRIP TOGETHER

[@KODA2A]

Don’t feel bad bro, I’m a kook in a landlocked state that supports these dudes also. It’s the lifestyle we wish we could live. My family and friends think I’m a weirdo for being so into it as well. There’s lots more of us all over. Makes me wish I wasn’t a fat turd. If a wasn’t in my 30s with two young kids…

[@stevewilliams808]

Titus Kinimaka is the guy who broke his leg at Waimea.

[@oPlayDoHx]

The Tahiti trip better happen!!!!!

[@imthepopcornman]

this fucking rocked lol

[@jordywilliams]

Bert would have loved Andy Irons

[@Jamaicak7]

Great interview, but those 6 or 7 min commercials suck! While I'm driving to work (15 mins) and am excited to listen to the interview, the commercials come on and ruin the rest of my drive to work! Can advertise your sponsor in a less intrusive way? I know this is how most KZbin channels advertise, but maybe innovate so it doesn't bother the viewers so much! Anyhow, once again, great interview! I'm a big Nat and Koa fan as well and I live on the North Shore and have witnessed them grow up as well. So interesting to hear their behind the scenes of their lives

[@user-xy9np6dg6x]

Titus Kinamaka (spelling?) Is the guy Burt is talking bout

[@troycantrell1549]

You need to long board,A lot times if you didn't grow up surfing its easier to longboard and you should get up easily

[@michaeld3798]

Tidas is his name. He’s lives on Kauai.

[@westaylor6360]

Hey Bert Drink more beer Smoke more pot Eat more pies Oh you already do ? Sweeeeeet

[@wisterV]

“What’s the deal with sharks?”

[@priscilasaraiva1238]

Did the trip happen? hahaha

[@joewat3982]

Nathan Florence should play Bert in *The Machine* film. kzbin.info should definitely play one of the Russian gangsters.

[@nitehawk86]

Florence + The Machine

[@ronnyron6939]

Bert "Tee-a-poo" Kreischer

[@goreckiiiii]

bert definitely met kala alexander, hes a hot head. but to think a drunk non surfer like bert got to meet buttons, surfing ROYALTY...makes me blood red mad

[@trundle6145]

Nasty Nate killin it as usual

[@robgroves7424]
