Like the Red Green show for paddlers!

As a Colorado based, primarily white water paddler, I am surprisingly infatuated now with Canadian flat water canoe culture. In large part thanks to this podcast and the entertaining nature of it. I hope that they can come out with a YouTube video blog of the podcast soon with some visuals. Since I don’t get to paddle as much as I would like listening to this podcast is like therapy for the river deprived.

Engaging fun and good insight into the world of paddling

I recently started listening to this podcast. The two hosts are very personable and the guests are very interesting and knowledgeable. I am looking for as much in depth true experience through storytelling and examples as I can find. This is a great discovery. I’m working my way backwards through the episodes. The bonus is that they are up to date with what’s going on in the current times unlike many paddling podcasts. I’m from the Chicago area and they do touch on the Great Lakes quite a bit which is perfect for me.
