The man; the myth; the legend. Garett McNamara.
Garret and Nicole are such inspirational human beings , breaking through ceilings never thought possible I love you guys.
Rich this was the best podcast I have ever seen , your questions and interactions are so creative and in the moment , just brilliant.
Thank you guys🙏❤️
❤
I’m practicing my English and this podcast helps a lot, is incredibly how brave a human can be!!
Mahalo for this wonderful interview! I grew up surfing NS Oahu as a teen in the 60’s with a mom on barbituates & pills so can relate. But had a dad who was a sociopath multiple personality tryrannical bastard paranoid control freak. So I took lots of notes because my life was primarily always sucked into a constant undertow of never accomplishing a consciously directed life. All I can say is thank god/goddess for having had surfing, skiing & studying several forms of dance to keep my head just above water because suicide was my constant easy option due to so much inner pain. And since both parents did it, it was always an invitation. Thankfully at 32 I was gifted a mystic shrink who assisted me with not checking out. Now at an age where I am supposed to be retired, I want to do something consciously directed creating a balanced life … so this was hugely inspiring! Again Mahalo Nui from Kona … with a small note … Once a surfer (when young) Always a surfer … and can see looking back how my connection with the ocean, waves & Mother Pacific was teaching me to how somehow surf my chidlhood traumas through a directionless mostly chaotic life. So am now loving hearing everyone from the NS Oahu surfing stories at different ages on YT … how it’s shaping their lives is wonderful and so different now as everyone has access to so many more tools … outside of the old paradigm of this Earth Realm … Co-creating a new one. And it’s clear to me that those that have grown up as a kid surfing NS Oahu, no matter what decade … have something very out of the box to big offer now … more than ever is the time NOW.

Garret puts it all out there. Authentic.
I was at a surf shop in Haleiwa the day after the Pipe Masters in 2003. After a brief chat, he said his name was Garrett McNamara. Pretty cool to talk shop with a legend.
I admire people who conquered the relationship with water and waves in the ocean, being one to one with the water wall.
The 100 Foot Wave was an incredible docu series!
Highly recommend & Nicole is such a beautiful human being.
The two of them together is a combo meant to be & something from deep within in the cosmos❤
Oh man…this interview is so wonderful. I really enjoy learning about who a person is and this…oh my gosh, just wonderful.
All the best. Thank You for this. Truly wonderful.
PCP - Present, connected, protected ❤ loved this interview! Such inspiring people and the message that it's all attainable if we want it badly enough and are willing to work for it, is so powerful. Rich has become a master at asking the most insightful questions and guiding the conversation in different directions without limiting any responses. I'd always heard about Garret through surf mags and knew he was one of the big wave hellmen but so cool to see what a great human he is. Can't wait to watch the documentary.
I recently went through some extremley traumatic things and i realised a few months back i want to surf big waves and its attainable now i told my partner my goal and started working towards that, then i see this podcast it helped it all fall into place for me, i relate to your upbrining alot maybe it does relate to the risk factor being almost irrelevant 😂 anyways Garrett i will see you at Nazare one day and il tell you this in person 🤙 thanks for the inspiration man! Looking forward to that day..
Surfing keeps you sane even when surfing the absolute most insane 🌊🏄♀️ that’s the gift
This is an enriching one, Rich. Much appreciated 🌊
I seriously loved this thank you ❤inspired and touched in being true to self and serving others through the journey ……. ❤ I love the big waves and wow how awesome how big is letting fear go in doing those big waves….I remember seeing that huge wave you took in Portugal and posting it on social media whenever that came out and many many liking this most amazing man surfing what looked impossible…. Well done❤
I would be grateful if somebody could point out the book Garret talked about. The name of this book is The Medicine Wheel. However, after a quick search, I have found many books with such names. Thank you.
It was so great to hear a conversation with a great athlete, again!
Another fire podcast.🔥🔥🔥
Amazing interview!! Loved every Single minute
This was a great conversation! So real!
I love your Podcaster rich roll
Very special humans! Loved This😊
Such a beautiful conversation. So much depth, heart and soul.
Their baby is so precious! Really great podcast!
Great interview!
@ 19:30 Ireland and England have some great waves and surfers.
58:53 Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here

Got psychs
@@sarahh321 Where to search?? Is it instagram?
Last year, I took shrooms at Las Vegas thinking it was going to hit like an edible or something. Shit was scary at first but amazing once you start getting deeper into your thoughts
@@Jerryberger9235 Yes, he’s got other psychs too
@@sarahh321 Thanks, I’ll get some right away
Good work. Very impressive surfing.
Love my past, All has been my teacher 💗
Hey, Rich ... 'just want to compliment you on being quick - not too quick, though, to transplant some of the terms common to the surfing industry/activity that Garrett used but for which I had no sense of their meaning. Because of your effort, I learned a few things about said activity. Thank you.
Brazilians getting there and doing their thing is great too
Lot of people are asking similar questions about getting more detail on the books mentioned in this episode. Rich et al., you have a great podcast but your show notes are really lacking. Please consider posting these kind of details rather than a series of popular press links about Garrett that anyone can find with basic google searches. This guy and his wife are a wellspring of great advice and so inspiring. It would be a shame if more people could not learn from them.
Thank you, through this I realized it's time for me to reset.
🌊 🏄🏾♂️
Mr. Roll. This is by far one of your best episodes to date. You are a genius at allowing the energy of the conversation to ebb and flow. Garett was allowed the space and freedom to be his kooky, genuine self. You beautifully brought his entire story to light with compassion understanding, relatability, and wisdom. Inviting Garett's wife and their beautiful baby onto the set was epic. I felt like I was sitting around a campfire with all of you. Something Nicole said really hit home for me. You were referencing morning routines and she said something along the lines of not everyone needs to wake up at 5am to be successful. Thank you! "Know thyself". So many podcasts are about "telling you" what you "need to do". This episode was so accepting and allowing. An amazing flow between all of you. Really, so beautiful. Thank you. 🙏
Wow I lived in Pittsfield ma for a year crazy small world
I found Rich to be really disrespectful in the conversation about his mom and like he pushing him to call her a bad mom.
I was wondering who the guy on that monster wave was!! Go Garret Go Rich
@richroll Do you know who wrote 'The Medicine Wheel" they recommended? There are several different books with this title by different people when I checked. Thanks!
Love this amazing story and Garett and Nicole's way of being! Who is the author of "The Medicine Wheel" that Nicole mentioned? Would love to check it out but there are a lot of books with similar titles :)
looking for the same info
@@AJG14310 Me too!!
Saaaame! Came here for this.
hold the phone - what is the white t-shirt brand that rich is wearing?! looks awesome!
Fantastic Rich! I don't surf. I never heard of Garrett prior to this podcast. What a story!
what an answer to his trauma. mushrooms w guide 3 m ago ! LOVE his answer. pop those buggars out LOVE them and let go. and of course HE WOULD NOT BE WHO HE WAS WITHOUT THEM TO BEGIN WITH.
Great interview, also what's with Garrett's accent, it's like he has an Irish inflection in it
I love the baby coos 🤷
Rich was coming off super intrusive about this dudes relationship with his mother. Wasn’t his place to do that if you ask me
A bit patronizing as well………
Not often you see him so judgy
So intrusive and he had to keep defending her...
Kinda disrespectful
It's not often you see Rich judge someone in a negative way. Was interesting to see this going off the rails until Nicole was brought in. 😅
What's with the uncharacteristic 'well, you are Irish' comment, Rich? That's way out of order. Greetings from Dublin, Ireland.
with respect, I suspect Rich didn't say it with malice. He was doing a 'short hand', i.e. stereotype. Hey, I live in Canada and we get all sorts of stereotypical comments thrown our way and not all of them are positive.
This is the kind of world 🌎 we've made for ourselves and our children, better have no enemies when the light goes out , due to the economic criss, wars and rate of unemployment I think now is the best time to invest and make more money for the future💯.
🇺🇦I'm from Ukraine investing now will be a very wise choice ☺️ to secure a better future for my family God help us.
💰Investing today is priceless because tomorrow isn't promised, trading Bitcoin gold, sliver and crypto to secure a better tomorrow
Interesting, most people don't understand the market moves and tend to be mislead in the fact like this and always depend on the bank and very bad ideas
Its nice for people to talk about investment because investment always beats cash
I understand that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone but investing today is a hard thing to do because I have no idea of how or where to invest.
“Anderson Cooper is the best?”. You had me till that comment. Later.
Gonna challenge you to get more muscular Rich, fight age back.
Honestly....
ummmm isnt RR a runner? different than a gym made body MMwind.
This is 8 ft hawaiian.
Dude is going hard the the mom.. 🤔🤡
This guy surfs big waves but not with style,, Tommy carrol will surf the same wave and fucking destroy it all the 80 crew killed it Ronni burns occy Barton lynch sunny Garcia I grew up in Encinitas all the boys Trevor Christ Kenny Clemens Todd Martin brad gerlac Donald takiama great shapers Tom eberly lighting bolt all the local boys then fucking killed it everyday
Ronnie Burns, 2-20 foot. Master shredder...
What about Rob Machado? He killed large pipe.
There’s a massive list of surfing legends, through multiple generations, that would strongly disagree with you, but I respect your opinion, and it’s everyone’s right to have one. I don’t know if you’re familiar with John Cardiel, but if not, you should check him out and watch his Epicly Later’d. I see a lot of style and mindset parallels, between his skating & Garrett’s surfing. Cheers ✌️
