Heard Praino on Crabfeast. Hooked! Listening to them all a little at a time. Carpenter in Colorado with a lot of time to binge. Don't slide on the ocean but do slide white water!

Joe Praino and Lachlan Patterson's podcast, The Kooks of Komedy, gives the perfect balance of surfing advice/talk while inserting comedic stories and even a glimpse into the two comedians' stand up routine with the segment, "new bits." While the comedians label themselves as "kooks", the advice they give is helpful to all skill levels. The surfing advice can range anywhere from how to respond when an agro local stares you down, to how pop up in time to get the perfect amount of spray. The show transistions in between comedy and surfing perfectly as the comedians know when to draw up similarities and differences between the two. The kooks will often share insights into their days/weeks that never fail to be hilarious. While listening in class or on the way to work, it's difficult not to become jealous of all the adventures mentioned on the show. Perhaps the best part of the show comes from the segment, #kokuestions, in which they answer any questions the fans have for the kooks. The kooks willingness to answer these questions demonstrates their appreciation for the listener, something that seems hard to comeby in an age where media is so centered on making money. Overall, the Kooks of Komedy is well worth the listen whether or not you are into surfing as the comedy involved will be enough to have you laughing throughout the week.

I just recently discovered your podcast and could not be happier! The show is great, the guests are great, and I'm trying to catch up! Keep up the amazing work.

I found the podcast through Joe's other work and I'm hooked. From "Creepy Pete" Cestaro to Chris Wylde all of the guests are amazing. Any standup komedy and wavesliding news you could want are included. Segments include Bede Report, New Bits, Sesh Talk, and KOKuestions. Thanks to Joe and Lach and stay kooky. #K4L #AAonKOK #jokestochopwoodto #ripWS -Jack Kargl aka Dayton Dirtball

As a proud kook and comedy nerd I can't recommend this podcast enough. Two funny dudes who will definitely keep you entertained if you have even the slightest interest in surfing. @fixyourlife hit me with a follow I'm a Dirtball too: @joebro206

There's not many surf podcasts out and this one is the best! It's Hilarious and that guy Joe Praino brings it every episode! Lach's ok too! lol keep bringing it boys!

They made me realize that straight surf podcasts are boring. Great take on surf through a comedians eye. Plus the chemistry as they roast each other is great.

Yo fools

Great podcast. I don't wave slide (surf--ding) and I still love it. Both these guys are funny in different ways.

Never been wave sliding in my life but this podcast is by far my favorite one. Heard about it from praino's other pod, the dirty sports (check that out too) and have been hooked ever since. Joe and Lachlan are absolutely hilarious and have great chemistry. A must listen for sure even if ur not into wave sliding
