Broken Oars Podcast, Episode 52: BUCS, Staying Safe, and Giving up the Dream

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 aren't actually young anymore; why Alan Rickman's diaries are unreadable; why you should keep a diary and what you should put in it; when and where it is appropriate to use the N-word ...

 

... and then we get to why rowing an eight is harder than rowing a single (sorry, single scullers, we know you like to say you're the zenith of the art and craft, but ... you aren't); and then the big question:

 

When a rower should give up their dream, whether that is a Henley run, making the squad, or just getting out in a boat ... ?

 

(Did we here someone say ... NEVER!)

 

Did you miss us?

We missed you.

 

Accept no substitutes, we are the original and best ...
