SIMON GRIEVE: The Burghley Debrief (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Simon Grieve is back from Burghley — so it’s time for the full debrief. From a disappointing dressage test to yet another brilliant clear cross-country round, Simon talks us through the highs, the lows and what it really feels like to ride around one of the biggest five-star tracks in the world. We get into the pressure of Burghley, what went right, what didn’t, and how you pick yourself up when the weekend doesn’t quite start the way you hoped. And then, because this is Shut Up and Ride, the co
From Mustangs to Badminton and the fun and tears in-between : Elisa Wallace (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Jenny and Ben are joined by five-star eventer, Mustang trainer and exceptional horsewoman Elisa Wallace — and wow, what an episode. From training Mustangs and building relationships with horses others might overlook, to competing at the very top of eventing, Elisa’s career has always put horsemanship at the heart of everything she does. But this conversation also goes somewhere much deeper. Elisa talks openly about her fall at the final fence at Badminton — and the brutal social-media
Dolly, Bridleless & Going Completely Off the Rails (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This one goes off the rails a bit… but, quite frankly, that’s what we do best.

Is this a sign that attitudes really are changing in the horse world, and are we s
Ben Asselin: What Makes a True Horseman? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What’s the difference between being a great rider and being a true horseman? This week, Canadian show jumper Ben Asselin joins Jenny, Simon and Ben to talk horsemanship, the lessons he’s learned competing at the highest level and why understanding the horse has to go far beyond what happens in the ring. Ben also takes us inside Spruce Meadows — the iconic venue founded by his grandparents, Ron and Marg Southern — and explains what makes it such a special place for horses, riders and fans of the
Freddy Steele: From Stunts to Dressage & Unlocking the Horse’s Mind (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week Jenny and Ben are joined by the one and only Freddy Steele — Liberty Legend, stunt rider, horseman, performer and mindset coach. Freddy takes us behind the scenes of a life spent doing things with horses that most of us wouldn’t even dare attempt… from jaw-dropping stunts and live performances to dressage, liberty work and developing a true partnership with the horse. But there’s much more to Freddy than the spectacular stuff. We get into mindset, confidence, communication and training
