Amazing! Great podcast do you think that me (Jasmine) and my friend, Eilidh, could have a shout out? We LOVE the podcast! And what are your favourite breeds/coats colours in horses and are there any names that you just hate?
Wow! Well done! I follow Dr. Polly Watson‘s podcast on menopause which shares the same information you have just provided and it has helped me so much. I am also using the Balance app. You have just. Given vital knowledge to a whole new audience. Well done.
Shut Up and Ride is a fabulous podcast. It has had me in tears and laughing out loud in the same

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