Shut Up and Ride

• Burghley special : “I hugged everyone, even if I didn’t know them!”

  Fresh from an unforgettable double clear at Burghley, Simon Grieve joins Jenny on Shut Up and Ride to relive the magic — from the focus in the saddle to the pure joy at the finish line. In Simon’s own words: “I hugged everyone, even if I didn’t know them!” This episode captures that exact energy — the hard work behind the scenes, the emotional release, and the celebration that followed. We had so many requests to get this pod out ASAP, and trust us, it’s worth the wait. Whether you were there in the crowd, watching from home, or just love the thrill of eventing, this is Burghley as you’ve never heard it before. Plug in, press play, and feel like you’re right there on course with Simon.

• Perimenopause & Menopause: The Ride No One Trains For

  Riding Through Perimenopause and Beyond In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Jenny and Simon are joined by dressage rider and coach Steph Bradley, whose groundbreaking research into perimenopause and menopause has revealed astonishing results. Steph shares the heart-breaking stories of women whose riding and lives have been affected by this transition—stories that deserve to be heard. But this is not all heavy. True to Shut Up and Ride style, there are laughs along the way, including a candid (and very funny) chat with Simon about how sore vaginas and other rarely talked-about issues can keep women out of the saddle. This episode is as honest as it is important: blending compassion, science, and humor to shine a light on a subject that touches countless riders. Whether you’re a rider, coach, or supporter, you’ll come away with greater understanding and maybe even a smile. Tune in now—because these conversations matter.

• “Olympic Rider, Abuse Survivor, Carl Hester Fangirl – Abi Lyle’s Story”

  In this raw and powerful episode, we sit down with international dressage rider Abi Lyle, who opens up about her incredible journey to the Olympics—from childhood dreams to riding under the global spotlight. Abi shares the highs and lows of life in the dressage world, her deep LOVE (like Jenny-level love!) for Carl Hester, and how social media plays a role in her equestrian career—from motivational messages to the... less polite DMs. It's candid, funny, and full of the passion that drives her sport. But this conversation takes a deeper turn as Abi bravely speaks about surviving coercive control and abuse from convicted murderer Jonathan Crewswell, the heartbreaking loss of her brother, and her current sobriety journey. This is a story of grit, healing, and rediscovery. Abi’s voice is one of strength and clarity, and we’re honored she chose to share it on the podcast. Trigger Warning: This episode discusses themes of domestic abuse, grief, and addiction. Please take care while listening.

• Shag, Marry, Avoid: Listener Q&A Gets Unhinged

  This week on Shut Up and Ride, it’s just Simon and Jenny—no guests, just pure, unfiltered horse chat. We’re diving into your listener questions, covering everything from tricky training scenarios to stableyard scandals. And yes… we’re playing Shag, Marry, Avoid—horse-world edition. Think famous riders, disciplines, and maybe even a few controversial equines (you’ve been warned). It’s chaotic, it’s hilarious, and probably a little too honest. Saddle up for an episode full of laughs, opinions, and total nonsense. Just the way we like it.

• Calling It Out: The Whip, the Welfare & the WTF

  The One With Simon’s Assets, Ben’s Funeral Fiasco & That Heath Ryan Video Shut Up & Ride  The gang's back together! Ben, Simon, and Jenny reunite in this packed episode full of honesty, humour, and heart. We kick off with Simon’s, er, assets making a surprise appearance (you’ll never look at a pair of breeches the same again), before diving into Ben’s emotional goodbye to his grandparents—and how their funeral somehow turned into a full episode of The Vicar of Dibley. Then things get serious as we discuss the controversial video of Heath Ryan whipping a horse. We don’t hold back, and we openly invite Heath to join us on the pod to talk, listen, and—hopefully—help drive change for the welfare of our horses. Finally, Jenny opens up about her personal experience with perimenopause: the brain fog, the emotional rollercoaster, and why more women in our sport need to feel seen and heard. This episode is a rollercoaster—raw, ridiculous, and real. Saddle up.  TOUR COMING SOON 16th and 17th of Jan 2026  CONTACT US : [email protected] FOLLOW US : Instagram This Podcast is sponsored by Charles Owen - https://www.charlesowen.com
