On this episode of Swell Season, our guest is a writer, journalist, author, editor, publisher, business owner and host of the 'Looking Sideways' Podcast, Matthew Barr. Matthew has been working in action sports media and communications since the mid-1990s where he was the editor of Whitelines Snowboarding Magazine until 2005, when he started his own marketing agency, All Conditions Media. He recently published a book with good friend and extremely talented photographer, Owen Tozer, where they went on a Californian pilgrimage, visiting the people and places that loomed large in their side-stanced upbringings. Legends such as Herbie Fletcher, Jamie Thomas, Cori Schumacher, Jamie Brisick, Circe Wallace, Taylor Knox and many more.

Our discussion ranges from his latest book to the democratization of the action sports media to who our most difficult guests were and much more.
