LOVE FEST! 100 Foot Wave's Garrett & Nicole McNamara on Knowing & Never Settling - Ep 85
It's Love Fest time! 🎉 You may notice today's Love Fest is a little bit different! In honor of Andy's obsession with big waves, we're welcoming the stars of HBO's hit docuseries, 100-Foot Wave! This is the episode where you'll catch Andy in a very rare state of being starstruck.
Garrett McNamara, 8-time Guinness World Record holder for largest wave ever surfed, is one of the biggest names in surfing. His wife, Nicole, is not only his manager but also a passionate environmentalist and teacher. They've been together for over 11 years and have two children with a third on the way.
Garrett and Nicole share the unique story of how they met (for context, we circle back to this topic towards the end), how they complement each other, how they "knew", and how parenthood changed their relationship. Finally, a record-shattering Dear Shandy Newlyweds Game! Who knows who better? Watch on to find out!
