    Christmas Special 2024

    In this Christmas special, I share what Christmas truly means to me, from family traditions to the reality of spending Christmas on a boat. I also give a sneak peek into 2025, with exciting things coming up, like more live shows, writing a book, and season 6 of Canal Boat Diaries, featuring more adventures and canals to explore. Throughout the episode, I answer listener questions about life on the boat, what it’s like to spend Christmas alone, and how the laid-back pace of boat life has changed the way I enjoy this time of year.

    Does Living on A Boat Help Improve Your Mental Health?

    In this episode, I take a break from filming Canal Boat Diaries series 6 to dip my toes into anissue that impacts millions of people and yet remains a delicate and very personal subject. Living on the water certainly offers a slower pace of life and a chance to reflect on life, but it’snot easy and can be very challenging mentally as well as physically. Drawing from my own experience of anxiety and depression I discuss if boat life could help pre-existing mental health disorders or make them worse.  But it almost goes without saying, I am not a mental health professional and contained in the podcast are my own opinions, not to be taken as medical advice!

    Answering Your Questions After Canal Boat Stories Live

    Aside from making Canal Boat Diaries for TV, I am also on tour with my live show – Canal Boat Stories. It’s mostly just me sharing photos, videos and stories about my travels, with a bit of music and also a Q&A. With an audience of around 200 people, I enjoy answering questions, but this time there were so many I ran out of time. So, in this special episode, I’ll be covering some of the questions I didn’tget around to including ‘would you ever leave the Naughty Lass and return to regular living’ ‘does it get lonely on a boat’ and ‘how many windlasses have you lost this year’!

    Filming Adventures on England's Waterways

    What’s it really like filming Canal Boat Diaries? Summer edition! From the set of Canal Boat Diaries (er, well my narrowboat) I bring you some extra special behind the scenes content. Anxiety about public scrutiny and the inevitable loss of privacy are points I cover, as well as baffling other boaters and how long it really takes to film a one-hour show. From the long and arduous days, some lasting up to eleven and a half hours, every lock (and aqueduct) can test both physical and mental endurance. The logistics with cars and boats can be complicated and it can be stressful but it’s interesting, fun and ultimately worth it!

    Simpson to Little Tring (feat. My Dad)

    My dad, Richard, joins me for this episode, where we reminisce about our adventures on the water. From his globetrotting career in high-tech horticulture to earning his yacht master qualification, we recount memorable boating trips, including a hilarious mishap on the Kennet and Avon Canal and a nerve-wracking journey down the tidal River Trent.  We also share some of the unique challenges of living on water, especially when the temperatures drop.

    Bugbrooke to Milton Keynes

    Here’s a bit more behind the scenes info from episode 9 of Canal Boat Diaries season 5. I journey from Bugbrooke to Milton Keynes in this episode along the historic Grand Union Canal. I share the practicalities of life aboard and discuss (perhaps in a bit too much depth!) how an efficient water filtration system can make all the difference.  I’ll guide you through the historical Blisworth Tunnel and take you onto the river Nene at Northampton to introduce you to some of my favourite ‘Pubs of the Week’!  Robbie Cumming's Canal Boat Podcast is produced and managed by Urban Podcasts.

    Coventry to Weedon Bec

    I'm taking you behind the scenes of episode eight, series five of Canal Boat Diaries, which you can stream now on UKTV Play as I journey from Coventry to Weedon Bec. In this episode, I explore Coventry's musical heritage and how the Specials and ska-punk bands like Less Than Jake and Reel Big Fish have influenced my musical journey. As a musician living on the waterways, recording music aboard a canal boat can sometimes be challenging. So, I'm revealing my unique recording process and taking you behind the scenes of creating some of my tracks, such as Windy Biscuits.

    Atherstone to Moira

    I'm continuing to take you behind the scenes of Canal Boat Diaries, Series 5 which is now available to watch on Yesterday and stream on UKTV Play. In this episode, we go behind the scenes of episode seven as I dive into the rich history of the Ashby Canal, uncovering its 22-mile stretch built in 1804 and the exciting ongoing restoration efforts. I also talk about one of my favourite times of the year, Halloween and relive some of my spooky escapades, from dressing as the Grim Reaper, Alan Partridge, to own my villain creation, Bad Man.
