S1 Ep 117#117 - Jed Smith: The not so punch-drunk pikey chooses life.

E

Send us Fan Mailhttps://terriblehappytalks.com/Instagram @terriblehappytalksJed Smith is a surfer, journalist, and co-host of everyone’s favourite surf podcast “Ain’t that Swell”, a podcast that celebrates (and challenges) the full spectrum of surf culture. Whilst Jed’s brand of larrikin humour is adored by his legion of podcast fans, there is an obvious paradox in Jed’s article writing which often addresses socio-politics issues with sharp intellect and logical rationale. At age 34, Jed has acquired a stacked resume. He was a journalist and correspondent for VICE news Indonesia, he has written for every major newspaper in Australia, written and worked for the most respected surf magazines, and currently, when he is not recording podcasts with co-host Vaughn Blakey, Jed is a part-time employee at STAB surfing magazine. In this week's episode, Jed discusses the long-term impact of the Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) he sustained in his earlier years, the plight of the working class, the financial strain of growing up in a single-parent household, his decision to address his inner-demons by choosing life, and much much more. Sincere, authentic, opinionated, and well researched, Jed is a champion of the people...who has no desire to be a champion of the people.

Kristyan was a previous guest dating all the way back to episode #51 in which we recorded in the dark, by the cliffs of Uluwatu in Bali, on the evening of Nyepi- the Balinese new year. Moreover, this was literally a couple of days before the industrial and commercial world broke into a pandemic of hysteria in which world leaders seamlessly capitalised, closing boarders, applying curfews and imposing social distancing regulations...all under the cloak of a necessary “new normal”. Enmeshed with little resistance from a fearfully obedient, confused, face-mask wearing and hand-sanitising public, the result for many is economic ruin, loss of livelihood, mental illness, family breakdown, poverty and starvation at global levels not seen before. All while a mainstream-media monkey rides joyfully on the back of it all. In this week's episode, Krystian is with me to check-in, share his experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.
