If you’re both a podcast girlie and an Android girlie like myself, please join me in mourning the loss of the Google Podcast app this week (RIP, you were a real one). If you haven’t already, you also need to check out the EquiRatings Eventing Podcast, a twice-weekly gem that covers all the big events, riders, and happenings in our world. They just released the first episode of their Maryland 5 Star behind-the-scenes preview, and it’s getting me even more excited for this year’s event, if that’s even possible — and it’s only three short weeks away! Listen in and get hyped with me, and stay locked in to EN for all our updates as we approach Maryland week!

Sponsor Corner: Calling all Arabian eventers! Etalon Equine Genetics recently launched a brand new panel just for Arabian horses and Arabian horse crosses! This panel includes testing on some of the most common genetic conditions that commonly impact Arabian horses, including Lavender Foal Syndrome and Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. Learn more about these conditions here.
Morning Viewing: I know you’ve all probably seen the sport of Hobby Horsing on socials (which is especially prevalent in Scandinavian countries for an unknown reason), but you’ve never seen it like this. The burly stars behind the band Green Sky Bluegrass took to the ring at Tryon International to show off some frankly impressive extended trots and stylized stadium jumps. (Content warning: the video contains a rather graphic rotational fall after one rider failed to clear a vertical. RIP.)
