I’m Matteo. Zero BullShit has been my way of life for 30 years, from homeless teen punk in the Southside of Chicago, to working construction for 18 years in South Florida, to forming a band, Belligerents, touring and playing shows with some of the best punk bands in history, to spending a decade living in Costa Rica, building and hosting a surf camp, surfing the longest left break every day, then back to South Florida to live with the love of my life. Now that I’m back in the USA, I want to share my ZBS Way of Life with my friends.

ZBS is for people who live in a world where it’s hard to believe anything anyone says anymore. If you are tired of being stepped on for doing the right thing but not willing to compromise your values, if you are sick of all the red tape just simply trying to move forward in honesty, you may understand what our way of life is about. There seem to be barriers at every turn and navigating around them can be exhausting! I have been living on my terms of ZBS by making an honest living my whole life but still taking chances and seeking adventure.

The ZBS way of life has allowed me to seek freedom, both from within and outside of myself, pursue my dreams, explore my creativity.
