352: The Surfer/The Endless Summer with Guest Adam Beam

This week on Beer and a Movie, we paddle into cinematic surf culture with two wave-riding flicks: the new Nicolas Cage psychological thriller The Surfer and Bruce Brown's iconic 1966 documentary The Endless Summer.

Though they couldn't be more different in tone, these two films make an unexpectedly perfect pairing. The Surfer is a moody, mind-bending plunge into the dark side of beach life, while The Endless Summer rides smooth on a sun-soaked breeze, celebrating the joy and freedom of chasing waves around the world. Together, they show both the mythology and the madness that the ocean can inspire.

To keep the vibe frosty, we visited Sanchez Family Brewery for the first time and cracked open two of their clean, crushable pilsners—perfect for post-surf (or post-movie) refreshment.

If you like beachy chaos, classic vibes, cold beer, and hot takes, this episode’s your jam. Grab your board and your pint glass. 🌊🍺
