The one with the Angry Boater

Joel Sanders is a comedian, former teacher and self appointed Angry Boater (although I don't think he's that angry). In this long, rambling conversation we talk about everything from newbies blocking water points to the pricing policies of corner shops.

Helping vulnerable boaters, with Lorraine Newman

In this episode of Up the Cut I speak to Lorraine Newman, team leader of the Waterways Chaplaincy in London, about the work of Waterways Chaplains with the more vulnerable members of the boating community. Whether it is avoiding removal of their boats from the system at the 11th hour, or just having someone to speak with after a bereavement, boaters can call on the Chaplains for help and advice, safe in the knowledge that they won't be judged.

The one with the Idle Women...and the curse of Rosie and Jim

In this episode I talk with dramatist Kate Saffin about the Alarum theatre company and in particular Idle Women of the Wartime Waterways. I also fall victim to the curse of Rosie and Jim for the first time. Quite a long episode this one but full of good stuff. Check out the Alarum website and their YouTube channel.
