From its launch during the dark depths of the COVID-19 pandemic in July 2020 until its final episodes in the spring of 2024, Broken Oars Podcast grew into the world’s best podcast about rowing, rowers and all things related to the art, practice and magic of moving a boat backwards down a river using oars.

Co-founded by Dr, Lewin Hynes (the Southern One) and Dr. Aaron Jackson (the Northern One), Broken Oars was joined by Olympic and world champions, elite coaches, world-leading sports scientists, journalists and commentators, and rowers from all backgrounds and walks of life for conversations on the ups, downs and all-arounds of fulfilled sporting lives.
