This week, Parks and Shane welcome one of their closest friends, Jimmy LaRiche, to the Banter Studio for an episode packed with hilarious stories, old memories, and plenty of classic Bonifay chaos. Jimmy goes way back with the Bonifay brothers, and their friendship goes way beyond wakeboarding. He was there when Shane met his wife, actually introduced Parks to his wife, and has been part of some of the biggest moments in both of their lives. Over the years, Jimmy and Shane shared a bunch of the same sponsors, which meant traveling the world together, riding, filming, and getting into all kinds of trouble along the way. Somewhere between the contests, trips, and good times, the two became best friends. Jimmy even lived in the same neighborhood as Shane for years, making them practically neighbors when they weren't traveling together. And it's not just Jimmy who's part of the Bonifay Banter family. The LaRiches have been a huge part of the podcast from the beginning, with Jimmy's mom and cousins helping out with everything from appearing on episodes to making merch and even designing the Bonifay Banter logo! With this much history between them, you know the stories are going to be good. And if you've ever wondered what number Shane is thinking of, you might want to tune into this episode! Between the Halloween stories, never-before-released footage, fantasy football arguments, and the ridiculous memories these three share, this episode feels less like an interview and more like hanging out with a group of best friends who have way too much dirt on each other.
