Welcome to another episode of the For Stars Podcast, where today we get to hear from Fergus Mainland. The man behind the mic for “The End of The Island Podcast”, also apart of the Junior Rowing News media accounts, Mainland has always had his foot somewhere in the sport of rowing, whether that be podcasting, writing, researching, or even commentating for British University Championships and Henley Women’s Regatta.
Fergus attended Newcastle University for five years, where he rowed for their crew team; yet, had to part ways when he was diagnosed with Glandular Fever. He chose to not let his illness get to him, and with the love he has for this sport, decided he could start coaching and being the President for the club team there at Newcastle. Him and some of his friends, established “The End of the Island Podcast” in April of 2020, which is affiliated with Junior Rowing News (JRN) during the world shutdown, and it has been an absolute hit, with people listening internationally!
Mainland has been involved with Junior Rowing News for the past six years, but the actual organization, has been around for over a decade. JRN, a company of 40-50 people, partnered with British Rowing, is comprised of race previews that are volunteered-based from junior rowing athletes, where athletes get to preview races all around the UK.
Hudson and Fergus discuss the overall impact and initiative that Junior Rowing News and “The End of The Island Podcast” has had on rowing as a whole, the differences that we see in rowing in the United States and the United Kingdom, how he has dealt with his illness, the naming behind his podcast, and even his love for football and the dynamic of collegiate rowing and all sports in the United States overall. Be sure to tune into this epic episode and Fergus’ show “The End of the Island Podcast”!
