    Episode 12: The Conclusion of Social Media Narratives

    Welcome to episode 12 of Paddle and Flow, the third part of our chat about social media and kayaking.  In this episode, Alex and Nicola start by continuing our discussion about safety and responsibility towards other paddlers, and being a good role model for others. We do wander slightly and surprisingly off-topic as we consider the wider influence of social media and explore the creation of social media narratives.  Does having a social media presence change how we present ourselves and portray our lives due to fear of how we’ll be received by others? Is it possible to escape the downsides including negative comparison? Thank you to everyone who’s made it through any or all three parts of this long chat! Let us know your views on whether social media is a good or bad thing when it comes to kayaking and beyond. We hope you can join us next time as we ask if our paddling lives would change if we didn’t have social media, and we move on to discuss failure and the general reluctance to share when things don’t go to plan.  Thanks for listening 🙂 ⁠⁠ELKayak Fish - YouTube⁠⁠ - Alex’s kayak fishing channel.  ⁠⁠P&H Custom Sea Kayaks⁠⁠ - Nicola’s P&H Virgo MV ⁠⁠Sturgeon Sit On Top Fishing Kayak - Galaxy Kayaks⁠⁠ - Alex’s fishing kayak

    Episode 11: Do We Have a Responsibility on Social Media?

    Welcome to episode 11 of Paddle and Flow, the second part of our discussion about social media and kayaking. In this episode, Alex and Nicola focus on the influence social media is having on paddling, particularly the decisions made by newcomers to the sport. Is social media making kayaking more dangerous? Do more experienced paddlers have a responsibility towards helping beginners stay safe? Join us as we give our view on this often controversial topic.  We hope you enjoy this episode. Let us know whether you think social media is a good or bad thing when it comes to kayaking.  Thanks for listening 🙂 ELKayak Fish - YouTube - Alex’s kayak fishing channel.  P&H Custom Sea Kayaks - Nicola’s P&H Virgo MV Sturgeon Sit On Top Fishing Kayak - Galaxy Kayaks - Alex’s fishing kayak

    Episode 10: Social Media and Kayaking - Part 1

    Alex and Nicola would like to welcome you to Episode 10 of Paddle and Flow.  This episode is the first in a long discussion we had about social media, which we have split into a few episodes.  In the first we pin down what we consider social media to be before moving onto Alex’s experience with his kayak fishing YouTube channel (see link below.)  We then begin trying to unravel whether social media has changed kayaking. Do we compare ourselves to other kayakers on social media? We also ask why is there a quiet reluctance to share when things go wrong? We hope you enjoy our ramblings, please let us know your thoughts on whether social media is a good or bad thing when it comes to kayaking.  Thanks for listening 🙂 ELKayak Fish - YouTube - Alex’s kayak fishing channel.  P&H Custom Sea Kayaks - Nicola’s P&H Virgo MV Sturgeon Sit On Top Fishing Kayak - Galaxy Kayaks - Alex’s fishing kayak

    Episode 9: Paddles and Plans - Part 2

    Welcome to Episode 9 of Paddle and Flow.  Alex and Nicola are back with the second half of a two-part episode about our recent paddling adventures and plans for 2025.  This week we talk about the mix of conditions we’ve had here on the East Coast of Scotland, with Alex getting caught in a squall on the same day Nicola was paddling on a sea of silver glass five miles along the coast. We then move on to discussing our paddling plans for the year - paddle, lots 😁 Thanks for listening 🙂 ELKayak Fish - YouTube - Alex’s kayak fishing channel.  One Man And His Boat - YouTube - local fisherman Barry Brunton’s informative and entertaining YouTube channel.

    Episode 7: Scottish Wildlife

    Welcome to Episode 7 of Paddle and Flow (ignore us both calling it Episode 6 🤪) For the first episode of 2025, Alex and Nicola have an extended chat about marine wildlife on the East Coast of Scotland. It’s the wildlife that helps make sea kayaking special and we’ve been lucky to have had some magical wildlife encounters while on the water. From our fabulous dolphin encounters of 2024 to visits from inquisitive (and hungry?) seals, and flypasts from many different seabirds. We also talk about the animals we haven’t yet seen, but hope to, and those that took us by surprise 🐳🦭 Be sure to listen to the end to find out Alex’s affectionate (?) term for puffins! Thanks for listening 🐬 (We apologise for referring to the Shetland orca pod as the 57’s when they are in fact the 27’s.)

    Episode 6: Christmas Special

    Welcome to Episode 6, Paddle and Flow’s Christmas special! 🎄 Alex and Nicola want to say a big thank you to everyone who has watched, listened and commented in the first few weeks since we launched our podcast.  This episode was the perfect opportunity to respond to some of the comments and questions that we’ve received over the last few weeks. There’s also a bit of paddle chat - Alex talks about the great conditions he had on a recent paddle from one of Dunbar’s beautiful beaches. Find this on his YouTube channel ELKayak Fish - YouTube (Exciting News and Catching Winter FISH! - Kayak Fishing Scotland - YouTube)  We talk about getting out on the water together for the first time since Alex hurt his back and almost recording an on-water episode which was the original idea behind the podcast! Finally, we have a first look at Felipe Behrens’ recently published book “Around Vancouver Island on my Kayak” (Around Vancouver Island on my Kayak - Book Signed by the Author | Around on my Kayak). Alex was lucky to interview Felipe when he arrived in Dunbar earlier this year on his way around the UK and Ireland - This Man is SOLO Paddling Around the UK Interview with Around On My Kayak - YouTube We hope everyone had a great Christmas and we wish you all a fabulous 2025! 🥳
