Yep, it’s a full mince pie and secret Santa-themed two hour special with the great Tim Warwood and Adam Gendle, universally known as Tim and Gend. I’ve been meaning to get these two giants of the UK snowboarding scene on for months now, and my first ever festive special, recorded over mince pies and Twiglets at the start of December 2018, was the perfect opportunity.
If you’re not familiar with the work of Tim and Gendle, then settle in for two hugely enjoyable hours as we take a leisurely look back over their unique careers in snowboarding and beyond.
Although the boys first came to prominence as promising UK riders in the late 90s, they really made their name when they produced, directed and edited a series of era-defining UK snowboarding films. It was a peerless decade-long run that celebrated British snowboarding in all its unique glory, setting the tone and epitomising a spirit of UK snowboarding that still holds true today.
Naturally, we looked back at this, and also talked about what the boys have been up to in the last few years; which has been pursing their post snowboarding careers as presenters, directors and producers; latterly focussing on their amazing quiz show concept Famous First Words.
I love Tim and Gend. I’ve had some of the best times of my life with these boys, and I’ve watched on proudly as they’ve leapt from success to success.
As with any good double act, you’re in safe hands with Tim and Gend, which is why I knew they’d be the perfect guests for my festive show. Grab a mulled wine, mince pie or shot of Jagermeister, and get ready for for two hours of tales from two of UK snowboardings’ finest.
Big thanks as ever to Matt Ward for the theme tune.
