A podcast TEN YEARS in the making...
'Surf Dudes with Attitude' is the #1 podcast about the 90's teen sitcom "California Dreams". Okay, so, we are also the only podcast of its kind but let's not quibble! The show centered around a high school band as they navigate life, friendship and songwriting. Their choices are questionable, their fashion is exquisite, and their music is... well... we will let you be the judges of that. It's dated, sometimes cringey but also surprisingly wholesome?
Peat Rains and Zac Fable, two career musicians will meticulously and tirelessly break down all 78 episodes of this show. Peat was inspired at a young age to become a musician, partly because of California Dreams! Zac, well, he had never heard of it before being bullied onto the podcast. We'll be analyzing all of their musical business decisions from an industry standpoint. We'll be covering the songs and dissecting them based on music theory and our objectionable taste. Special guests incoming. Patreon/Discord also set up for bonus content including reviews of other band-centric TV and film, commentaries and Q&As.
Neither of us surf and we're actually quite agreeable people. Peat can't sing and Zac was homeschooled so he has no foundational understanding of how a high school operates. We're completely qualified here.

The mothership has landed. The O.G. of California Dreams, Michael Cade, AKA Sylvestor Winkle, sat down with the crew of Surf Dudes to discuss his tenure as the manager of everyone’s favorite high school band.. Like his character, Michael doesn’t hold back. But, we were both relieved and humbled that he could roll with the punches and didn’t hate us! Unlike his character, he's an incredibly gracious and warm person. We had a great time talking about California Dreams, his storied career and what he’s up to now. He helps answer all of our burning questions from the last few years of doing this podcast: Was Sharkey’s attached to the school? Is Sly an orphan? Where did his sociopathy come from? And would future Sly be indicted in a financial ponzi scheme (definitely yes).
Though we can’t defend everything his character has said over the years, it could not have come from a nicer person. Thanks for being on the show, Michael! And we look forward to another sit down where we hyper focus on an episode in a zesty roundtable discussion. Possibly with the rest of the cassssstttt??? Stay tuned… See you at Sharkeys!!

Oh hey there, VERY SPECIAL EPISODE. Haven’t seen you for a whole TWO WEEKS. Welcome back, I guess? Tony finds himself in the middle of a gang war as his old friend Darren from COMPTON stirs up a hornets nest when their fellow bandmate JR (whom we never see) is attacked. I kid you not… There is an actual gun in this episode… of California Dreams. There’s not a concert. There’s not a bass slap. There’s not a guitar trill. There’s nary a snare drum pop. But there is an outside shot with a showdown at the CD corral!
Peat and James try desperately to count the number or people in the final scene that show up in record numbers to solve the American violence epidemic. Oh, and the rest of the band get jobs as singing telegrams and wear gorilla suits to break the tension of this heated episode.. No, we aren’t joking. Make sure you’re strapped! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Watch out, greasers! There’s a new bad boy 30 year old man at PCH. Tommy begins hassling Jake because he wants to be Warchief. It’s worth noting that Tiffany finds this to be a hugely attractive quality in a mate. Just sayin… Jake gets spooked after an accident and becomes a hall monitor at school. Ughhhh, okay. Everyone is not acting like themselves while tripping all over this plot. But, we do get the psychiatrist from the Terminator franchise playing the school principal again. He may or may not be threatened or pregnant.
James and Peat discuss the merits of school safety, parking lot speedbumps and which racing route is more deadly: Cool Man’s Curve or Devil’s Backbone. Hear for yourself! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Hey there, Chimneys! We’ve coughed up a lung to bring you this very special episode of California Dreams this week. In this after school special PSA, we meet Jake’s cool-as-shit uncle that just so happens to chain smoke every time he is compared to Andrew Dice Clay. Jake picks up the nasty habit while prepping for his big motorcycle contest that we definitely will not see any footage from. Meanwhile, the gang may or may not have some hijinks with a metal detector. Because, WHY NOT? It’s not like we were going to get any music on this episode anyway.
James and Peat collectively JUST SAY NO to tobacco but wholeheartedly would welcome a sponsorship from Phillip Morris. See you at Sharkey’s!!

WOOF! We got a racially charged, early 90’s, NUANCED episode to talk about. The gang gets history projects that focus on their family lineage. There’s zero music from this so-called band and a lot of storylines that age like fermented milk in the trunk of a scrapyard van. Tony fibs about his past when he’s confronted with slavery. Sly, of course, also lies but doesn’t learn as much of a lesson. Yes… that tracks.
This is the first of THREE very special episodes in a row. UGH! But, this is episode 311, so we are allotted at least one reference to everyone’s favorite rap-rock band from Omaha. Timbre is the color of your energy here at California Dreams! James had some choice words after watching this episode and Peat is still waiting for any of these cast members to return our interview requests. Come on! There’s catering! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Choo choo!! On this monthly edition of Side Project, we’re gassing up the ol’ girl to fly us out to the Windy City to talk about Perfect Strangers! We are joined by siblings Imram and Sophia from the Dance of Joy podcast to investigate the wacky cousins Larry and Balki in the sixth season episode “Out of Sync”. Inexplicably, Balki gets a record deal and becomes a hip hopper. Problems arise when they don’t read the fine print and the harsh reality of the music business rears its ugly tentacles.
James is abuzz with excitement getting to watch a show that actually features some music. Peat is still puzzled over who wrote the lyrics to this musical number. Luckily, our Perfect Stranger experts shed a little light on any lingering questions. They were an absolute blast to have on our show. We might decide to join forces and get an apartment above them with matchy floral designs and live happily ever after. Stay tuned! See you at Sharkey’s!!

Calling all Surfers with abandonment issues… this episode is for YOU. We see another few drops in the bucket of Tiffany’s vitriol as we talk about the California Dreams episode “Daddy’s Girl”. If you’re catching up, Tiffany’s mom abandoned her when she was young. Then, she came back and teased her with affection a life in New York City, only to be dropped again. So, it’s just been Tiff and her pops since then. Now Tiff’s dad finally finds a fellow wet biologist for romance but now their daddy/daughter time is massively interrupted! Will they strike some equilibrium in the Smith Aquarium Household? Meanwhile, Mark has a B-plot shoehorned in here where he basically invents Tinder and incepts the idea that Jake/Lorena and Tony/Sam are a bad couple. One of those is a thousand percent correct, by the way.
James chimes in from middle America in Nebraska and Peat vehemently defends this episode, despite having some of the WORST guitar miming by Jake that we’ve seen yet. Tiff Tock… this time bomb of RAGE is about to explode. See you at Sharkey’s!!

We did it. We pulled it off. After narrowly escaping a real life Yeti last week, we have had to call in reinforcements to tackle this week’s episode. Our former co-host and amazing bezzie, Z (Zac Fable) pops back in to discuss this episode of California Dreams. And we are all LIVE in the same room!! The gang takes a television class at school and wouldn’t you know it, Tony and Sly get some of that sick syndication money when their show is noticed by a weirdly present TV executive in the classroom. How will they maintain work/school/life/band balance? Can their friendship survive being local public access celebrities?
This is the first time all three Surf Dude hosts have sat in a room together. It’s something to marvel at! The power of this show, am I right? Peat has some questions about the child protection measures for these television contracts. James wants to know why Mark is playing a stoner in a skit. And Zac is wondering who the hell this Mark person even is! Lots to delve and dive into this week, folks. See you at Sharkey’s!!

Greetings, fellow cryptozoology bros. We have a really special regional episode of California Dreams to discuss. We’re taking a chartered flight out to Colorado (??) to Lorena’s dad’s ski lodge to see the Dreams perform a weekend residency. But trouble strikes when local rumors of a yeti emerge, threatening to disrupt the construction of a new skiing slope. Yes, that’s actually the plot this week.
Will our nepo baby princess ever learn the true meaning of hard work? Will Jake be flexible at all with his strict, heteronormative dogma? Will Tony learn to embrace mysterious, folkloric cryptids? And will Old Man Guffrey stop defecating all over the public trails? Peat remembers this episode fondly as a child and is just as disappointed with it as an adult. Meanwhile, James marvels at a new set built (or stolen) for this episode. We get more outside shots, B-Roll and, did we mention, the Abdominal, Ripped Snowman? See you at Sharkey’s!!

Hey there, Promise-Ring wearers. This week, we delve into the dark world of lust, envy and betrayal on California Dreams. Mark, whom everyone knows is the heartthrob of this show, puts his mitts all over Jake’s girl, Lorena, and the entire Dreams enterprise is threatened. The gang immediately thinks it’s an amazing idea to tell Jake, whom everyone knows is emotionally mature and level-headed, and he quits the band!
Meanwhile, Tiffany is still bottling up her rage, Sly kisses Sam for reasons, Jake hates his mother, and we get the worst possible guitar miming this show has had to offer (so far). Why can’t we just hang out and be in a band with Tony exclusively? Do teenagers play Monopoly and watch Nick at Nite? Is this high school cafeteria a drug front where gangs beat up children regularly? Is this episode referencing The Shining? We answer all these burning questions. See you at Sharkey’s!!

Calling all Samantha Wu-Tang fans! In this breathtakingly continuity-dense episode of California Dreams, the boys at Surf Dudes HQ say goodbye to one of the best actresses on this show. Thank you, Nikki Cox for elevating the decor around here. Sly and Allison must face a tough reality when she decides to move to Chicago to teach blind people how to blind more better. There’s an inane subplot with some dress-up, a dream sequence and more than a few drops in the bucket of rage that is called Tiffany.
We get a SECOND outside shot in California Dreams’ history and, wouldn’t you know it, it’s for another emotional breakup! There’s DIDDLY SQUAT for music and band stuff in this episode unfortunately. There is some cutlery talk that really gets Peat HYPE and James is clocking a lot of LPE’s (laughs per episode) the last few weeks. In other exciting news, we might be closer to discovering the truth behind Pierre. See you at Sharkey’s!

Following our in depth and eye-opening interview with Sir Zachary Throne, we jump in our Cessna plane and head up to Vancouver to talk about the short lived American band drama, “The Heights”.
The single season series focused on a young band navigating their way through life, love and surviving in an anonymous city surrounded by very-obvious-sounding Canadians. Zachary Throne played the keyboardist and gave us some slick insight into the production, music writing, overnight success and subsequent cancellation of this forgotten cult-favorite.
Peat and James are here to talk about the absurd amount of characters, instruments, sub-plots and 90210 connections this week. They also take a hard look at how different their life would have been had they had a dimly lit pool hall in their youths to hash out the trial and errors of adolescence. Hear how this northern sister show to California Dreams came to be and how, inexplicably, it lost the war despite having a #1 single under its belt.

Not to spoil anything but a lot of the cast of California Dreams didn’t actually sing or play instruments live on the show. I know… BUMMER. But we managed to track down some of the people responsible for those iconic pretending-to-be-teenager voices! We sat down with Zach Throne, multi-talented and faceted artist with a long rap sheet of credits. He dubbed in the singing voice of Mark on California Dreams as well as providing a lot of the studio guitar and bass in seasons 3-5. Yet, he has never met his alter ego, Aaron Jackson!
We talk about how he got the gig after his short but pivotal role on the Heights (California Dreams’ Canadian competition show!) and what it was like to have a #1 song at the same time. Zach has spent the years being a working musician, which is nothing to sneeze at, as well as an accomplished voice-over artist for shows like Spongebob and Avatar. He has toured with KISS, Aerosmith and an absurd amount of others. He’s currently in Corey Taylor’s band, Jerry Cantrell’s band and soon to be in the Surf Dudes band, whether he wants to or not.

Aloha, groupies! This week, we are taking aim at the ol’ band ball and chains. Lorena wants to join the California Dreams right before their big Battle of the Bands tournament. The only fly in the ointment there is that she sounds like a beached walrus with a toothache (sick burn, Tiffany). Can the Dreams navigate this very relatable scenario while also defending their championship wrestling belt from freakshow challengers Total Defiance? FIND OUT HERE!
Peat recounts a story when his band performed with the actual Yoko Ono, George fills us in on his Conclave conspiracies and James thinks Mark is the new hunky heartthrob of the band. Lots of awards to give out and actual band discussions to be had!

Season 3 Episode 04: Blind Dates featuring TUBI TREASURES
Hey there, handicapable compatriots. In this almost-special episode, the gang gets prophetic whilst dipping their collective toes in the online dating pool. Sly meets a girl online only to find out that she is more than meets the eye. The rest of the gang do some silly, forgettable stuff and we barely get any cool rehearsal time. BUT, we are joined by a very special guest.
In the dark corners of the internet lurks those brave and courageous enough to tackle the bottom of the barrel that cinema has to offer. The very niche-famous Adam from TUBI TREASURES joins us to lend his expertise at dissecting this episode. He has sat and reviewed some of the worst, and we mean the WORST film offerings. So, if anyone can fully appreciate some ‘delicately and respectfully handled’ mid 90’s disability-themed sitcom storylines, it’s this wartime pal.

Season 3 Episode 03: Follow Your Dreams
We have convened at this Budgetary Counsel here at Sharkey’s to discuss this week's episode of California Dreams here on Surf Dudes with Attitude. The gang find themselves on yet another radio program (yes, AGAIN). But conveniently, this time, it has nothing to do with them actually being in a band. The failing school AM/FM radio is dying like a rusting tower in the wind and is given to Sly to revitalize. He gives shows to all his nepo-baby friends to hilarious results.
Is this show in the same universe as Terminator 2? What happened to Tony’s school play? Will Jake and Lorena defile the HVAC machines designated to cooling the radio station down? Where is Tiffany in this episode?! So many questions! I’LL GET YOU, WINKLE!!!

Hey there, ya Belvaderes! In this career-oriented episode of Surf Dudes, we’re discussing the second episode of the third season of California Dreams. The gang gets assessed on their occupational fortitude. Jake is told he’d be a better florist than guitar virtuoso and Sly feigns interest in fashion in order to creep on the new girl Lorena.
Is the teacher a part of the MK Ultra experiment? Should Tiffany be allowed to work with animals with all of the pent up RAGE inside her? Do we finally get an answer if Sharkey’s is attached to the school? Will we be rewarded with a new song from the band this week?!?!

Heya, you uncultured Onionheads! We’ve missed you! We are finally back from our seasonal break. We are diving straight into Season 3 as we meet a cast of new characters and strategically omit any mention of the ones no longer with us. Matt is GONE, the garage is GONE and so is the band’s equipment. Rest assured that Sly probably sold it on the black market or something. We’re in a new loft and are introduced to Lorena and Mark. Only one of gets to be in the band and if the writers knew what was good for them, we would have seen some Octagon death match for it.
We welcome James Oliva back to the show as a full time co-host as we dissect our new surroundings. Peat has trouble adapting to any sort of change but can relate to Jake’s writer’s block. Meanwhile, George does some stellar candy-themed, Canadian centric detective work. Can the Dreams find a new songwriter for the band? We have a lot of fun content planned for this season. And maybe, just MAYBE some more of this cast will finally answer our Andy Dufresne-ing two letters a week and come on the show.

We did it! Again!! This podcast just turned TWO seasons old! For this gut-wrenching season finale of California Dreams, we see the band in various states of stress regarding the upcoming prom. Jake doesn’t want to go while the rest of the gang can’t find dates. They get a sweet summer residency offer but only if Tiff involves herself in the flesh trade (again). Will her and Jake’s relationship be strong enough to withstand this passionate new, brokered, romance?
Zac is flabbergasted to hear the plot summary of the original ‘Indecent Proposal’. Peat gets the fire detector going off for how HOT this episode becomes. And last but not least, for the first time in this show’s history, WE SEE AN OUTSIDE SHOT! The world DOES exist outside of this bomb shelter universe. Praise the Lord in the outside SKY!
We also want to take a moment to commemorate Brentley Gore’s last episode. Once again, Matt Garrison gets shafted big time and while the show doesn’t acknowledge his exit, we sure as hell are going to! Thank you for all your contributions to the show. For bringing actual acting and musical talent to the show, along with the realism to a lot of subjects where the writers would have fallen short. So glad to have spoken with you behind the scenes throughout this podcast and it’s a true testament that you’ve kept up with music all these years. Now, come on the show and spill some DIRT.
Big thanks to our listeners and patrons. Much obliged for all the engagement and feedback. We’ll be back next season (with some fun, bonus content in the meantime). We have no clue where this silly show is going to lead us but we’re stoked you’re enduring it with us! See you at Sharkey’s!!
