In Episode 0008 we speak with Hurlin' Will Herlan, a boomerang enthusiast from Seattle who has been involved in the sport for 29 years.

We talk about what it takes to get into throwing boomerangs, the history behind the 'weapon'/stick, and some neat intricacies like the community, the nuances and the prominence (THERE'S A WORLD CUP!!!).

Christian Audigier used a strategic marketing style that made ed hardy a hot favorite with the classes and masses.
