   Episode 1: The Mayor

   Our first episode features the man, the myth, the Mayor Mitch Kaufmann (https://www.facebook.com/mitch.kaufmann?__cft__[0]=AZXhsJfYA_v5vkaPOFq9beXrfAgpb3wyMGjMUxhknvx7c_cOkRnSrrFJvxfSkrPhdQXkKN7o-tLUFXcUIE5X769aJ8aRYzYtHKvXVyXBhIfsF16-EELyVB8SblBdIru3FpGiymBwgo0qX29gI4ulNEv-Tajlh5C8FirBHzpYSIE6lzr-06UhjC1ueVNcoDKR3eY&__tn__=-]K-R) who we were so privileged to sit down with and learn all about the 70s-80s surf/skate scenes in Jacksonville, and of course, the legendary formation of 'Rat Town', influenced by none other than Santa Monica's Dog Town and Z-Boys. Mitch has been a serious force and presence in mine, Alec's, and Colin's lives and it felt like no better place to start than with someone we have so much respect and love for. Mitch is family to us in so many ways.
