Ahoy and welcome to Episode 2 of Shantycast!

This week, we tackle the capstan classic “South Australia” – learn the chorus, sing along, and find out why it’s a favourite opener for the Dockyard Dogs.

We raise a glass of this episode’s Ale of the Podcast, decode a few more salty sailor sayings, and bring you updates from the RNLI’s Tower Station – including gigs we’ve just played, what’s coming up, and our team’s upcoming run up London’s tallest tower (yes, really).

Plus: we meet another of the Dogs, and of course, we end with a rousing bash of Bonaparte.

🎶 Hosted by the Dockyard Dogs – the RNLI shanty band keeping sea songs alive, pint in hand and voices loud.

Ahoy! Welcome aboard the very first episode of Shantycast!

We kick things off with our signature shanty “Nelson’s Blood” – discover its history, learn the chorus, and sing along with us.

We have an RNLI Tower Station update (live from the pub, naturally), we share a round of Ale of the Podcast, reveal some salty sailor sayings, and take our first swing at bashing Boney (Napoleon, that is).

Hosted by the Dockyard Dogs – the RNLI shanty band keeping sea songs alive, pint in hand and voices loud.
