Hi all,

This is my first time posting in this forum.  (If the mods consider this in appropriate, just let me know and I'll not bother the group again....)

My name is Jeff McIntyre and I produce/host a podcast on whitewater paddling called 'In Between Swims.'  The aim of the show is to let boaters tell their stories, talk about whatever kayaking news there is from a boater's perspective, and have a mix of pro's and amateur's on to talk about whatever they are doing on the river.  I'm based on the Potomac River, near Washington DC - and have been paddling and teaching here for over 16 years.  Hopefully, there's a broad range of topics that go well beyond the Potomac.

I've just posted the latest episode ('The Kayaking Mindset' w/Heather Herbeck).  I hope you'll take a listen - and check out some of the past shows, also.  Past episodes include interviews with EJ, Mick Hopkinson, Steve Fisher, coverage of the Outdoor Retailer Show, river conservation stories, swim reports, etc.  It would be great to get story suggestions or episode ideas from Scotland.  I was in Oban for a few days this summer and passed several boaters on their way to a dam release.  Was bummed I didn't have time to find gear and get on the water.

Here are the links for the latest show:

On this episode, In Between Swims:The Whitewater Podcast presents "The Kayaking Mindset" - Heather Herbeck's presentation from the Midwest Mountaineering Expo on improving mental strength and stamina on the river.
