Welcome back our friends to the show that never ends, we're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside ...   We're back, the original and best rowing podcast and this episode ...   We celebrate the magic of BUCS, the importance of knowing your responsibilities on and off the water and staying safe; why youth is not wasted on the young but why you only realise the aphorism is right once you...

Why is Broken Oars Podcast the world's best rowing podcast (Crossy's Corner excepted ...)?   Because no other podcast can move from grumping to an analysis of the status statement piece that is the Skillrow to the emancipation of rowers in the South East of England to the Wombles to the Second World War and escapism for wounded minds with such grace, elan and diablerie.    And we would take the ti...

Your Northern correspondent returns with the third and final chapter (and last word on rowing technique and rowing well). What some are calling a work of timeless genius, others are calling how you move a boat and yet more are calling what happens when you let a Northerner on the mic without the calming presence of a Southern Overlord, this is the third instalment of the original two-part series....

Ladies and Gentleman,   When we're in the presence of greatness, we sometimes do one sentence introductions, like this:   Harry Brightmore - World Champion, GB Men's Eight.   And to be honest, we could leave it there and we'd be justified in doing so.   But we can't, and it isn't just because the Northern One who writes our episode descriptions has a tendency towards sesquipedalian logorrhea (Leav...

After the doom and gloom of the Doping in Rowing episode, Broken Oars Podcast returns with a spirit-lifting, life-affirming perfect episode and a spirit-lifting life-affirming guest to accompany the start of a new season - a time of new resolutions, new energy, and new adventures.   Tony Larkman is one of the best coaches currently working - as well as being a fierce competitor to boot. His traini...

Usually Broken Oars Podcast returns with a spring in its step and a song in its heart - we love doing this podcast, because we get to do what every rower everywhere does when they're in the company of another rower: talk about rowing, and rowers, and water, and boats, and training, and racing, and cake, and seals, and otters, and ... when we were at Agecroft ...   When we were in the war ...   Shu...

The Northern One, or as we like to call him when he's writing the podcast blurb, the technically flawless one, returns with Part Two of An Alien's Guide to Rowing Well - The Revenge. This Time He's Back, and He's Read the Manual.   You know the premise - if aliens capable of travelling interstellar distances in spacecraft capable of warping our perceptions of space and time ever came to Earth and...

For your delight and delectation, the Northern One of Broken Oars Podcast offers a from the ground-up look at the basics and essentials of moving a boat well.   Given that every rower who as ever rowed knows exactly how to row a boat and it isn't what everyone else is doing but them, this represents Broken Oars creating a hostage to fortune ...   ... but given that hostage is Northern, he is there...

We return with a quick one after the wonder and glory that was Small Ergs, Big Dreams.   Did you really think that we'd quit?   We're rowers. The word 'quit' is not in our dictionary. In fact, owing to a tragic accident any words between 'twizzle' and 'zygotic' are not in either of our dictionaries. We possess, in fact, highly selective dictionaries.   In this episode, Lewin takes the coastal shil...

It's fitting as we approach the summer blockbuster season that we return with Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) vs. Pete. We only know one Pete, and that's the inimitable, the incredible Pete Brewer - a man among men and a God among coaches.   So there's only one winner really. All together now (to the tune of Seven Nation Army):   Oh, Pete, Peter Brewer. Oh, Pete, Peter Brewer ...   But seriously, as we a...
