In this episode of The Wipeout Weekly, Zuz chats with TV writer and lifelong surfer Noah Evslin about what it means to write Hawai‘i from Hawai‘i. From growing up on Kaua‘i and surviving a decades-long surfing hiatus to working in Hollywood and writing for shows like NCIS: Hawai‘i and Rescue: HI-Surf, Noah shares how surfing, cultural authenticity, and local storytelling all intersect in his work. We talk paniolos, plotlines in the lineup, why shoes-in-house is a no-go on screen, and what it’ll take to keep film production alive in the islands.
