Wingnut with Robert Weaver

Other than not sharing the derivation of the nickname, "Wingnut" @thewingnut is an open book with a candor and flow meant only for us folks in-the-know. Sure, Robert Weaver, star of Endless Summer 2, is a part of the adult-learner apparatus, but he does it in the middle of nowhere with not a lot of interference at your home break. Does he deserve this dream job? We think, yes. But it doesn't matter. He made it happen through hustle, a rare combination of humor, enviable kindness, and what appears to be a healthy dose of caffeine. To think he gave us an hour of his time… What a gift. You can't escape a smile after hitting play. Now, sit back and pretend you're in the first cabin of Cathay Pacific Airlines with clear, blue spokes reeling below while you get acquainted with the one and only, Wingnut Weaver.
