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.

Peat - You Bred Raptors?
Zac - Fable Cry

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!!
Next Episode: California Dreams - 3x9 “Winkle/Wicks World”
