Tai Graham is a professional free-surfer, entrepreneur, curator, businessman, club promoter, music lover and most importantly, a loving family man. Based in Bali for over a decade, Tai landed on the Island of the Gods (Bali) in search of a lifestyle that included pumping waves, good food, and good people. Since making the decision to settle full-time in Bali, Tai has made his mark by masterminding and co-founding the iconic, bar, restaurant and live music venues; Single Fin at Uluwatu and The Lawn at Canggu. Tai has a deep appreciation for the local people and culture. He works to support the community and help protect the natural environment in all that he does. Tai is affectionately known as “Buddha” to his friends and he always seems to make time for everyone he meets, even when the surf is pumping or he is chasing swells around the archipelago. He is approachable, kind and committed in all that he does- you just have to watch him charging extra-large swells to understand his level of commitment. On this week’s episode, Tai shares his experiences, challenges, and hopes for the future.

You'll find a particular kind of honesty in the conversations on Terrible. Happy, a podcast that sounds like a late-night chat in a backyard after a long day at the skatepark. Host Shan sits down with a rotating cast of characters from the Australian skateboarding scene and beyond, but the talk rarely stays on just tricks and terrain. It naturally veers into the messy, funny, and deeply human stuff that happens off the board: the struggles with fitness, the odd jobs that pay the bills, the mental health ups and downs, and the pure, alternative comedy of everyday life. This isn't a polished production; it's the raw audio of community, capturing the specific voices and stories that make this culture tick. Listeners will hear genuine interviews that feel more like catching up with an old mate, punctuated by the occasional chaos of THT Radio segments. It’s about finding the connection and the laughter in the grind, whether that's on four wheels or just trying to get through the week. The result is a uniquely Australian show that’s less about sports commentary and more about the shared, sometimes terrible, often happy reality of the people within it.
