The Dubcast With Dubside
The Dubcast with Dubside is a unique and immersive podcast that dives deep into the world of traditional kayaking, Greenlandic culture, and the captivating stories that emerge from the icy edges of the Arctic. Hosted by the legendary kayak instructor, performer, and cultural explorer Dubside, each episode blends insightful conversations, first-hand field recordings, and rich storytelling from Greenland and beyond.
Whether he’s interviewing master kayak builders, uncovering lost paddling techniques, or singing with locals around a drum circle in South Greenland, Dubside brings his signature mix of curiosity, wit, and deep respect for tradition. With co-host Andrew Elizaga, The Dubcast is a one-of-a-kind journey into a vanishing world of indigenous skill, Arctic adventure, and cultural resilience—told through the voice of someone who’s truly lived it.
Come for the kayaks. Stay for the stories.

In this special international edition of The Dubcast with Dubside, Team Qajaq USA meets with Team Sweden ahead of the 2026 Qaannamik Unammersuarneq, the Greenland National Kayaking Championships in Nuuk. The meeting begins with a tribute to Team Qajaq USA member Dr. Joshua Steinfeld, whose sudden passing is marked by dedicating the team’s trip to his memory.
Led by coach Dubside, members of both teams introduce themselves, discuss the events they hope to enter, and share their backgrounds in rolling, ropes gymnastics, harpoon throwing, racing, kayak building, photography, and traditional kayaking culture. The Swedish team unveils the design for their custom Greenland flag-themed Rebel Naja kayak, while Dubside gives an orientation to Nuuk, the Qajaq Nuuk Club, the competition site, and the “Black House,” which will serve as a home base for Team Qajaq USA.
The conversation also looks ahead to the Dubcast’s plan to produce daily dispatches from Nuuk, documenting the competition, the competitors, and the cultural life surrounding the event. More than a planning meeting, this episode captures the spirit of international friendship, adaptability, and respect for Greenland as a Qajaq nation.
