By Andrew Lausted - Drawing from the inspiring story of the University of Washington rowing team, this sermonette illustrates how the Church, like the rowing team, is a diverse body joined by God's Spirit. Through 1 Corinthians 12, we review that every member is indispensable, called to move together in humility, love

In this episode of As the Drum Turns, Jeff & Lora talk about how rowers find "the swing" and the positive effect of synchronized effort on our teams.

The policy leadership masters sport needs if it is to grow. What can public policy measures do to improve and grow masters rowing? Timestamps 01:00 Public policy for rowing Sophie Harrington is researching recommendations to improve access to womens and girls sport using public policy measures. Her focus on the male/female side opened up masters sport as a new area where sport for life outcomes could work. To grow masters sport requires finding the inhibitors which exist and prevent improvement. Some are structural - how we organise, think and run volunteer sport. 03:00 Growth inhibitors Ways to improve access and people's enthusiasm and interest in masters sport. Constraints include memberships - many clubs are annual fees/dues. Can we offer pay-to-play memberships? Also what about time of day pricing as our rowing equipment lies idle for 22 hours a day. Training at quieter times of day between early mornings and school afternoon sport times. Sweat your assets to get more money in for use when not in demand. 05:15 Coach education Teaching methods used for youth are not as appropriate for older adults. Consider psychology and physiology of athletes so coaches know how to work with a broader range of athletes. Competition structure is a growth inhibitor. We need 3 layers - local / regional and national competitions including those which are participatory not races e.g. Park Run. What is the rowing equivalent? Scrimmages, touring row or visiting another club. Some people take years before trying racing. Competition for those new to competing needs to be organised so you can go to hyper-local events with low friction (no equipment trailer). 08:00 Athletic pathways for masters Ways for those of limited experience to go to races against those whose experience is similar. Age doesn't work as a level playing field when years of experience is considered. Having plural athlete pathways which incorporate fitness rowers with challenges (not necessarily races) that move folks into competition gently. Social inclusion - having a coffee after the workout is important to build friendships and encourages them to stick around as a group. Facilitating sport for life is the outcome goal.

At the heart of New Orleans, at Xavier University of Louisiana, two coaches decided to challenge tradition—by bringing an elite sport to an unexpected place and building something that had never existed before: the first co-ed rowing program at a Historically Black College and University. Xavier University Rowing Club is a trailblazing force in collegiate sports, championing diversity and unity on Bayou St. John. Coaches Beth Manley and Chloé Jobin, and rower Victoria Duffey, are at the heart of the grassroots effort fueled by the belief that sports have the power to change minds and communities. Every stroke they take on the water is a step towards breaking barriers and building a more inclusive future for rowing.

On this episode, we've got a guest who's been at the sharp end of elite performance for over 50 years — Robin Williams. Robin's a former Cambridge rower and the coach behind multiple Olympic gold medal crews. He was actually recommended by one of you —  a fellow listener — and once I dug into his story, I knew we had to get him on the show. This episode kicks off with a promise: We're going to uncover the lessons Robin has learned from decades of turning raw athletic power into smooth, relaxed efficiency — and show you exactly how to apply those insights to your stroke in the pool. We'll dive into his athlete-centered coaching philosophy, how to give and receive feedback without offense, and even explore some over-speed training hacks — no speedboat required. A few standout moments to listen for:

एक गणतंत्र में संविधान के ज़रिये सरकार की शक्ति पर रोक लगायी जाती है, पर भारत में हम देखते हैं कि अक्सर होता इससे ठीक उल्टा है। सरकार ही भारतीय नागरिकों पर इतनी रोक लगाती है कि पूछो ही मत। और हम नागरिकों को भी इसकी इतनी आदत पड़ चुकी है कि हम पूछते भी नहीं कि ये नियम हम पर क्यों लगाए जा रहे हैं। प्रणय ने तो बेकार नियमों के इस जाल को सरकार का चंगुल कहा है।खैर, अच्छी बात ये है कि अब सरकार ने भी इस चंगुल को पहचाना है और इसके लिए डिरेगुलेशन कमिशन की घोषणा भी हुई है, पर ये डिरेगुलेशन कैसा होना चाहिए? या प्रणय के शब्दों में कहे तो इस चंगुलतोड़ का क्या फ्रेमवर्क होना चाहिए? इसी पर होगी आज की चर्चा।We discuss:* Reducing Government Control* Why do we have so much regulation?* There are no limits on regulation* Govt should have to present a deregulation statement to the Legislative* Steering function should be separated from Rowing function* Open up service delivery to private players* Cost-benefit analysis before introducing new restrictions* Why do Indian firms remain small?* How to deregulate Firms?* How to deregulate our Cities?* Deregulating human capitalAlso, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.Read:Substack | India Policy Watch: A Deregulation Agenda by Pranay KotasthaneBook | Banishing Bureaucracy: The Five Strategies for Reinventing Government by David Osborne and Peter PlastrikRelated episodes:फैक्ट्री बनाने के दुखड़े। How Poor Building Standards Hurt Indian Firms ft.

Masters rowing is about rowing with adaptations. Timestamps: 00:45 Grant Faulkner quote: The speed the clock moves forwards and the things it takes away. Masters learn to enjoy age and the things we have to adjust for our rowing. 01:45 Recognising when you need to make the next adaptation Nobody told me it was going to be like this! Strength and Mobility are the main things you will notice first. Strength diminishes differently between men and women 50s versus 60s. Your 60s is a 'hold steady' decade. Read article. Use the Facebook group to post questions and get answers from people who have the same issues. https://www.facebook.com/groups/595853370615544/ 04:00 Mobility and aging Range of movement in joints is important - pelvic mobility in the hips to get into the rowing stroke positions. Flexibility is also key. Programs Page "FREE STUFF" How to test your functional movement and strengthening exercises. https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/functional-movement-assessment/ David Frost's webinar on Functional Strength and Movement is a deeper dive into exercises for body strengthening for daily life - essential for older women who find it hard to lift a boat. https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/functional-strength-and-movement/ If athletes can't get into the right positions for rowing it's difficult to teach them. 05:15 Technique changes with age Adjustments to take account of mobility issues. Adapting Rowing Rigging For Masters Physiology article https://fastermastersrowing.com/adapting-rowing-rigging-for-masters-physiology/ Try to maintain your technique and range of motion as you age. Adjust rigging to accommodate physical limitations - some are easy, medium and hard - they take tools and more time to set up. We can still always improve our technique as we age. Despite losing strength, masters rowers can always be more skilful at the catch, get the blade in without slip, get a full leg drive, recruit extra muscles to add to power delivery. Technique has no regard for age - you can improve at all ages. What is the next horizon for you? https://fastermastersrowing.com/rowing-and-aging-each-decade/ Most of us delay making changes - if you are losing strength, you should be shortening your oars (Volker Nolte Rigging Webinar has charts for oar designs, Men and Women). Most masters row on oars which are too long for their strength and capability. https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/rigging/ This webinar includes - Volker Nolte's oar rigging chart – learn how to rig your oars correctly based on the oar make and spoon design - Mike Purcer's Masters 1x rigging chart (span, oar length, inboard) different for men and women.

Un diggeur passionné des Caraïbes talonné par un poète anglo-trinidadien qui slame la mémoire des afro-descendants. Emile Omar est notre 1er invité pour présenter le 3e volume de la série Disques Debs International Mizik Maladi (Strut Record 2025). Une compilation concoctée par Emile Omar et Hugo Mendez.Strut présente avec enthousiasme le troisième volume tant attendu de la série Disques Debs International, explorant plus en profondeur les archives de l'un des plus grands labels franco-caribéens, Disques Debs, basé en Guadeloupe. Fondé par le visionnaire Henri Debs à la fin des années 1950, le label et son studio ont fonctionné pendant plus de 50 ans, produisant plus de 300 singles 7” et 200 albums, faisant de Disques Debs un pilier de l'histoire musicale caribéenne.Au début des années 1980, Henri Debs s'était déjà imposé comme un producteur prolifique, avec un catalogue de sorties inégalé en Guadeloupe et en Martinique. Parti d'un simple magnétophone deux pistes installé à l'arrière d'une boutique de vêtements, Disques Debs s'est transformé en une véritable institution, avec un studio ultramoderne en plein cœur de Pointe-à-Pitre, des magasins de disques et d'instruments de musique en Guadeloupe, en Martinique et à Paris, une discothèque au Gosier, ainsi que des accords de distribution internationale en Europe, aux États-Unis et en Amérique du Sud.Disques Debs a joué un rôle essentiel dans l'évolution de la musique caribéenne moderne, créant un pont entre les genres traditionnels comme la biguine et le gwoka et les styles contemporains comme le cadence, le compas et le zouk. Ce dernier est devenu un phénomène mondial dans les années 1980 grâce à des groupes emblématiques comme Kassav' et Zouk Machine. Durant cette période, le label a soutenu une nouvelle génération d'artistes tout en continuant à collaborer avec des figures légendaires des décennies précédentes.Le volume 3 de cette série, compilé par Emile Omar et Hugo Mendez, met en lumière l'une des périodes les plus dynamiques et influentes du label, alors qu'il étendait son rayonnement international dans les années 1980. À travers deux vinyles, cette sortie propose une sélection soigneusement choisie de morceaux issus de l'univers Disques Debs, mettant en avant à la fois de jeunes talents et des artistes confirmés qui ont marqué cette époque.Cette collection célèbre non seulement l'héritage inégalé d'Henri Debs, mais offre également un instantané de l'âge d'or de la musique caribéenne, confirmant Disques Debs comme une véritable institution culturelle.► Titres joués- Christian Yéyé – Misyé Zanndo- Horizon – Neg Mawon- Alex Rosa – L'Appel des champions- Max et Henri – Sé Pou Demen► Album Mizik Maladi, l'âge d'or des Disques Debs International (Strut Record 2025)Bandcamp Volume 1 Bandcamp Volume 2 Cadence Revolution Bandcamp Volume 3 Mizik MaladiÀ écouter aussiSpéciale Disques Debs international avec Émile Omar Notre 2nd invité est Anthony Joseph pour la sortie de l'album Rowing up River to Get Our Names Back.L'origine africaine des OVNI, George Clinton en personne, n'aurait pas désavoué ce concept afro-futuriste dont Anthony Joseph avait fait le sujet de The African Origins Of Ufo's, sa nouvelle écrite il y a bientôt vingt ans.

Un diggeur passionné des Caraïbes talonné par un poète anglo-trinidadien qui slame la mémoire des afro-descendants.

Slowing down makes you faster in the future. What is rowing circles good for? Timestamps 00.30 Rowing in Circles I know I could make a lot of progress if I could just practice my stroke over and over. Yes, this is the purpose of rowing in circles. Get the intense, focused practice in a stable environment. 01:30 One person rows at a time in sweep; in sculling you row one side at a time. Often done in small boats so that the effect is all about what you're doing - the boat movement isn't muffled by what others are doing. It gives direct feedback and a strong learning outcome. 02:15 What is rowing circles good for? Level bladework - are your oars going into the water at the correct depth in the power phase and are they staying at the correct height above the water in the recovery phase. If you row "over the barrel" this is good. Catch placement - how to time lifting the handle so your blade goes into the water when your seat is just arriving at the change of direction at full compression? Get the oar under the water before the seat stops moving. Recovery height of blade above the water - Sweep align which hand does the height and squaring/feathering. Single hand or wide grip rowing can be practiced in circles. How to row square blades - see exactly what is needed to get the oar out of the water square. 05:00 Increase the challenge Learn the basic skill at light pressure, then make it harder by moving to firm pressure rowing. Try not watching your blade while rowing to keep the same technique. Remember when you are learning something new - there is a ladder of learning. Step up to make it more challenging but if this isn't working well, step down to re-establish the pattern of technique movement before trying to make it harder again. 06:15 Do it 3 times It takes time to acquire a new skill - repetitions help you to learn. Rest and reflect while your partner tries the rowing in circles. Many people learn in an interesting way - your brain processes the movement between practices. It may be better at the next practice. 08:13 Coaching rowing circles Watch this video to see Marlene Royle coaching a single sculler on Rowing Circles. https://youtu.be/1Jaqv1eiN5Y?si=c6KaXwnAE1pFo4by&t=133 To see the video of this podcast (if you're listening audio only) head over to https://youtube.com/live/_RfJ7Ku3Qe8 Want easy live streams like this?

On June 7, 2025, Oar the Rainbow will be one of just five teams losing sight of shore for an unsupported, human-powered, 2800-mile row from Monterey, CA to Kauai, HI. The team, – including the first out transgender person to row across the Pacific – are about two years into their planning and training.  Members Taylan Stulting, Julie Warren, and Courtney Farber have inclusion, joy, and kindness at the heart of the team, with the belief that representation in sports matters, while pushing the limits of endurance. We talk about the love of rowing, having something to prove, what to expect out there, and fundraising for Athlete Ally and Doctors Without Borders.

Despite overcoming many challenges as well as mental and physical hurdles during her voyage, Zara highlights the importance of resilience, self-belief, and the power of support from loved ones.About Zara LachlanZara Lachlan is a 21-year-old physics student at Loughborough University who is joining the army in September 2025 as a technical officer. She has competed internationally in cycling and rowing which she started at 16 at Welbeck, the Army's 6th Form College. Zara heard about ocean rowing when she was much younger but only decided to take on this challenge last summer, and the first time she ever saw an ocean rowing boat was in August.Two and a half months of intensive training later, she was fully prepared to row across the Atlantic solo.Zara faced extreme weather leading to a capsize, orcas and sharks, and a near miss with a large ship, yet still describes her expedition as the most enjoyable and rewarding experience she has come across so far. Zara set out to encourage others to find a fun way to keep fit and healthy and gain the confidence needed to try something new. None of her crossing would have been possible without the support she got from the charity Team Forces and all her sponsors.Connect with Zara Lachlan via Instagram Key Quotes"I didn't have a big reason to row across an ocean, I just thought it would be fun.""Some days, I rowed for 21 hours, and it still wasn't enough. That was a hard lesson in learning to accept what's out of my control.""For almost 60 days, I had no music, no distractions, just the ocean, the wildlife, and my own thoughts.""The hardest part wasn't the physical challenge. It was waking up every day knowing I had 3,000 miles left to go.""Nine times out of ten, you're stronger than you think you are.

Gentlemen, picture this: you're in a boat, rowing hard, but you can't see the finish line. Who's steering you through the chaos? Day 31 of our Lenten journey with St. Joseph brings a powerful analogy that'll hit home for every Catholic man striving to live with purpose. In this reflection, I unpack a gem from Emily Wilson about Jesus as the coxswain of our lives. He's the one calling the pace, guiding us through turbulent waters, while we row blind. St. Joseph steps up as our model: a man who trusted God's voice, grabbed his oar, and rowed without hesitation, even when the night was dark and the devil was near.We dive into the rowing team of your life. Who's in your boat? Your wife, your kids, closest brothers? Are you syncing with Jesus, or spinning in circles, distracted by the noise of the world? I challenge you today: reflect on who is in your boat right now. What direction are you heading? Whose voice are you tuning into—Jesus, the father of lies, or the endless scroll of dopamine hits? Your choice dictates your life's course. We wrap with a prayer to St. Joseph, guardian of families, to keep us steady.Hit play, Catholic men. Reflect on your boat, your crew, and your coxswain. Then ask: whose voice am I following? References Mentioned:The Boys in the Boat (movie/book about the 1936 Olympic rowing team)Emily Wilson (Catholic speaker)St. John Paul II's Redemptoris Custos (mentioned from previous episode)Powerful Quotes“Jesus is literally the only one in your life who knows where you are going.”  “You cannot chase the noise. You need to stay on the oar and listen to the voice of your coxswain.”  “The decision you make is gonna dictate the rest of your life.”Key TakeawayReflect today: identify the voice you're listening to most—Jesus or the distractions—and realign your focus on Him as your coxswain. Trust His pace, even when you can't see the shore.Send us a text Support the showPlease prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our Buy Me A Coffee page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

The three stages of masters rowing and a checklist of the skills learned in each stage - Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced. Timestamps 01:00 What will happen next for me? When learning to row you move up through experience and grades. Beginners - learning to row and getting familiarity with the boathouse, equipment and people. Be open to different frequencies showing up and learning styles. Progress is varied based on how much practice they do. 02:40 Clubs miss opportunities with intermediate rowers. Intermediate - often very keen to assist and engage with running the learner group. Include them in the learner program so they're included as tutors / helpers. Challenge them to try something new like being in stroke seat, small boats, toe steering or doing the calls for the crew. New horizons make rowing more fun and challenging. 04:00 Advanced The number of athletes is quite low - but does your coaching accommodate their needs? These people need specific training if they are racing - a program which builds up to a peak performance at key regattas. A coach needs to understand racing skills, periodisation for the program, how to read a race and respond. Long distance racing needs include steering, overtaking tactics, varied race rate and pace. 06:00 Rowing Skills Checklist The major stages of learning to row. This is a summary checklist - you can get a more detailed one if you join the Coach Mastermind Group - customise this to suit your waterway. https://fastermastersrowing.com/member-register/coach-mastermind/ Beginner skills - follow traffic navigation, emergency stop, turning on the spot and backing down. Intermediate skills - bladework skills, stroking and following in a crew, consistent rate / pressure. De rigging a boat, loading a trailer and do oar gearing adjustment. Diagnose faults and suggest drills to improve. Advanced skills - Add to the above lists - safety in weather/wind; launch in rough water, row square blades at firm pressure, catch start pick drill, using a pitch gauge to rig, measure span/spread and do a trailer loading diagram, confident coaching inside the boat - peer-to-peer coaching. Know where your skills are now and where you want to go next.

“No one works as hard as founders do. They're operating on another level of intensity.” - Medha AgarwalIs your pitch holding you back more than your business idea? Are you making it easy for investors to dream the dream with you? In this episode, I sit down with Medha Agarwal, General Partner at Defy, to talk about the unique challenges founders face—especially women—when pitching their startups, securing funding, and leading through growth. She shares why too many founders unknowingly undersell their vision and how simple shifts in storytelling can make all the difference.Medha also opens up about her own career journey, from being a founder to working in venture capital, and what she's learned about choosing the right team, adapting in fast-moving startups, and pushing past perceived limits. We also dive into her experience as a Harvard rower and the powerful leadership lessons she's carried from the water to the boardroom.Whether you're a founder, thinking about launching a startup, or simply curious about what separates the best pitches from the rest, this conversation is packed with actionable insights on confidence, resilience, and strategic growth.You'll hear us discuss:Why women founders struggle with selling the big picture – Medha explains that many female founders naturally emphasize what still needs to be done rather than what they've already achieved. Investors need to see the vision and the opportunity, not just the challenges ahead.The subtle shift that makes a pitch stronger – Instead of pointing out gaps or weaknesses, founders should frame their journey as momentum. Investors want to be inspired—help them see how they can be part of something big and inevitable.The underestimated importance of flexibility in startups – Too often, people transitioning from corporate jobs to startups focus on titles and initial responsibilities. But in a fast-growing company, your job will change drastically every six months. The real key to success is choosing the right company and founder rather than clinging to a specific role.What makes a startup worth joining – Medha stresses that it's better to join a company where you believe in the founder's vision and leadership style, even if the role isn't perfect. A rising tide lifts all boats—if the company succeeds, so will your career.How rowing taught her to lead and collaborate – Rowing is the ultimate team sport, where trying to stand out individually slows the whole boat down. The same applies in startups—success comes from alignment, trust, and moving in sync with the team.The reason she prefers working behind the scenes – Medha admits she's uncomfortable with the spotlight on herself and much prefers helping others shine. This mindset makes her a stronger investor and advisor—she's fully focused on helping founders succeed, not chasing personal recognition.ResourcesMedha Agarwal on LinkedIn | DefyWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | Email - winnie@winnifred.org
