  • Love it!

    Shut Up and Ride is a fabulous podcast. It has had me in tears and laughing out loud in the same

    Episode. I honestly feel I am chatting in the yard with Jen, Ben and Simey whilst

    mucking out and doing my job. Looking forward to meeting you guys at The Unicorn Centre for the Shut Up and Ride tour!

    I love the way they have done this- feels just like having a chat at the yard with friends (except these three are legitimate experts!) the only problem is that there aren’t enough episodes!

  • Made me laugh, made me cry, made me glad to be alive!

    I’m late to this podcast. Found it accidentally (who knew there was a podcast app on the phone I’ve owned for three years)! In 7 days I’ve listened to all 34 episodes currently released & what a journey it’s been. I hadn’t heard of Ben or Simon before (sorry guys) but now my horses and sheep have heard their voices (& Jenny) playing so much over the last week, they think they have new family members! Keep up the good work & keep advocating for the horse. Sadly not being on insta or TikTok (& qu... more

Q: What annoyed you this week?
I kind of want to pull them off the horse pony whenever it may be and say, do you not realize how unbelievably lucky you are to be able to do this?
An Australian Fireman Holding a Kitten?!
Q: Can you give your best advice on buying your first competition horse?
I would be getting somebody that knows what they're talking about. I'd be getting somebody that is good with confirmation, has experience, is knowledgeable, that can go with you to look.
An Australian Fireman Holding a Kitten?!
Q: What's your favorite thing to do when you're alone on the yard and no one else is about?
Probably TikTok dances. I haven't done any for ages, but quite a lot of the ones that are on my TikTok are ones that I've done when I've been the first one in the yard and there's no one around.
