Show Notes

In this episode, Jenny Rudall and Simey Grieve welcome the brilliant (and at times hilarious) Michael Duffy, international show jumper and all-round good sport. From growing up in a horsey household to navigating the competitive show jumping circuit, Michael takes us behind the scenes of his life in the ring—and out of it.

They chat about everything from natural talent vs hard work, mental resilience, and the evolution of riding styles, to the commercialisation of the sport and what the future might hold. But it’s not all serious—Michael’s sharp wit shines through, especially in a brilliantly relatable “What’s Annoyed You This Week” segment that will have horsey listeners nodding (and laughing) in agreement.

Honest, insightful, and properly funny—this is one you don’t want to miss.
