Such Great Memories
Love this podcast! Every episode is a trip down memory lane, and I’ve learned something new each episode as well. Robert is very knowledgeable about the history of the sport and does a great job interviewing the legends of wakeboarding.
Love Reliving the History
Robert,
Keep the good content coming. I started wakeboarding in 1991 and from that point on was consumed with wakeboarding and eventually ended up in Orlando in 1999 for college. The decision to move to Orlando was driven by wakeboarding and was at arms reach to a lot the stories that have been told on your podcast. I look forward to the future episodes.
