Thanks and happy holidays. Welcome back to the show. I am very glad to bring you today's episode with filmmaker Mike Zimbalist.

He and his brother directed the new documentary film, Momentum Generation, and it airs on HBO

tonight, December 11th at 10 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, and then on all HBO platforms,

the following day, Wednesday, December 12th. The documentary tells the story of the Momentum

Generation themselves. Kelly Slater, Rob Machado, Taylor Knox, Shane Dorian,

Ross Williams, Pat O'Connell, Kalani Rob, Benjie Weatherly, Todd Chesser, Taylor Steel,

and how this group of teenage surfers ushered in the performance era of surfing, along with

million-dollar contracts and all the drama and all of the industry that followed.

The Zimbalists have won Emmys and Peabody Awards for their production company, All Rise Films.

In this film, they partner with Robert Redford's production company, Sundance Productions.

In my humble opinion, the film is excellent and it's well

worth watching, even for perhaps your spouse who may not have any interest in your surf fetish.
