  • Ep 22: Blooming Legend Alan Titchmarsh
    May 21 2025

    It’s a really special episode this week. Not only are Pippa and Tristan coming to you live from the Royal Windsor Horse Show, but we’re breaking the old rule that says: never meet your heroes, because this week, Tristan gets to do exactly that!

    Our guest is the fabulous Alan Titchmarsh - legendary presenter of all the biggest gardening shows, author of countless books, a true National Treasure, and someone with a deep love for horses, the great outdoors, and the Royal Windsor Horse Show itself. And Tristan is his biggest fan.

    Alan swaps gardening tips with Pippa, shares riding tales with Tristan, and even tells us what befell his Madam Tussauds waxwork. A joyful, fascinating conversation from one of Britain’s best-loved presenters.

    Also – a massive thank you to Harry Hall our fabulous sponsors. They have given us an exclusive discount code. TH-HARRYHALL-10 – for 10% Off at HarryHall.com (when you spend £20+)

    We LOVE hearing from you.

    Tack, Trotting and Tom Cruise!


    This week we have Marcus Capel, Chief Executive of The Pony Club in the studio. He waxes lyrical with Pippa and Tristan on what makes the organisation quite so iconic. From muddy camp memories to creating future champions, Marcus shares how the organisation is evolving while staying true to its roots. Pippa reminisces about her own Pony Club days and Tristan's dreams come true with honorary membership.



    Plus, with Windsor on the horizon there’s a heated debate which VIP Pippa and Tristan are more excited about meeting.

  • Ep 19: Piggy’s Path to the Podium – with Eventer Extraordinaire Piggy March
    Apr 30 2025

    Pippa and Tristan sit down with eventing superstar Piggy March to explore the grit, grace, and guts behind her journey to the top. Piggy opens up about the disappointment of missing the 2012 Olympics, and the mental toughness, family ties, and sheer determination it took to come back stronger than ever—culminating in her dream win at Badminton. Whether you’re chasing your own goals or just love a good story of resilience, this one’s for you.

    It's such a packed episode we ran out of time... So do keep an eye out for some bonus Piggy content later this week…

    Plus - it’s been 19 weeks in the making, but Pippa has FINALLY watched an episode of Made in Chelsea. And she’s got thoughts… BOY, has she got thoughts.

  • Ep 18: Straight from the Horse’s Mouth with Equine Dentist Chris Warren
    Apr 23 2025

    This week on Talk Horse, Pippa and Tristan are chomping at the bit to chat with top equine dentist Chris Warren. After starting his career as a jockey, a career-ending injury led him to explore equine dentistry, where he’s become one of the best in the field. Eight of his horse “patients” competed at the Paris Olympics alone!

    Horse teeth can be a bit “out of sight, out of mind” - but caring for your horse’s mouth is an essential part of their overall health and wellbeing. Chris is here to offer insight and advice on how best to do that.

    Plus, Tristan tries on our fabulous Talk Horse merch. Available now at talkhorse.shop

    And that’s not all - use the discount code THWINDSOR for 20% off general entry tickets to the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

  • Ep 17: Tullis Matson – The Birds, the Bees & the Pipette, Please
    Apr 16 2025

    This week, Pippa and Tristan are joined in their brand-new Talk Horse home by Tullis Matson, Managing Director of Stallion AI (that’s Artificial Insemination, folks…) and the perfect person to explain to Tristan that horses can’t yet be bred by the other kind of AI.


    Tullis has worked in stallion reproduction for over 30 years and is now channelling that incredible knowledge and passion into a new mission: collecting and storing material from endangered animal species in a wildlife biobank. It’s mind-blowing stuff.


    Also – we have our first competition! We’re giving away four tickets to the Royal Windsor Horse Show on Saturday 17th May, with guaranteed front row seats for the Talk Horse Live show – plus some fab merch.


    To enter, email us at info@talk-horse.com with Windsor in the subject line and tell us:

    What year was the first Windsor Horse Show (then known as the Windsor and Dog Show)? T&Cs will apply

    Competition closes at 2pm on Thursday 1st May. Winners will be notified on Friday 2nd May.


    Use the discount code THWINDSOR for 20% general entry tickets.

  • Ep 16: Stable Foundations with Eventer Justine Ward
    Apr 9 2025

    Tristan’s still away, so the girls will play! Today’s pod is all about teenage laughter, life lessons, and the late nights that helped shape a career with horses - as Pippa is joined by one of her oldest friends and ex 5* eventer, Justine Ward. The pair met in 1987 and have been on quite a journey from young apprentices to competing at the highest level. Learning their trade in the legendary Ruth McMullen’s yard, Pippa and Justine explore the incredible grounding it gave them… and just how much of their wages ended up in the local.

    Justine also shares what it’s like to return to eventing in your 50s — and the time she got very carried away at Pippa’s horse auction.


    Please note - a few stories may not be suitable for younger ears.

    AND BIG NEWS!

    Talk Horse has Merchandise. We’ve had so many people ask us for our mugs – you can now get them here - plus gorgeous hoodies, T-shirts and hats.
