Over Horzing Around

Horzing Around grew out of earlier projects that wandered off in strange directions, but the heart behind them never changed: I still care deeply about horses and about the sport built around them… even if I barely recognize it anymore.Because honestly? Most days I feel like I’m just horsing around, trying to make sense of a sport that’s become equal parts confusing, fascinating, inspiring, and downright frustrating.Somewhere along the way, so much of equestrian life got wrapped in PR gloss, “Olympic dreams,” curated perfection and silence around the tough stuff. The soul got misplaced. And the media hasn’t exactly rushed to pick it up.Horzing Around is my attempt to gather all the thoughts, questions, eye-rolls, tiny victories, uncomfortable truths, and genuine worries that never make it into the polished version of equestrian sport we’re presented with.If you love horses but sometimes want to scream into a feed bucket about the nonsense, the contradictions, the beauty, the chaos and the ridiculousness of it all, you’re home.Welcome to Horzing Around. Let’s dig into the sport we love, even when it makes absolutely no sense. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

11. The Power of the Ground Jurors

When you've been in this game for a long time you start to connect the dots. And the dots in between weird rulings by officials paint quite the picture. A picture of inconsistencies and on several occasions, abuse of power. For good and bad. Trouble is the equestrian world is fast in not necessarily forgiving but forgetting things that maybe shouldn't have been forgotten. These things are the things I bring to life in today's podcast episode. Make sure to subscribe to the podcast and please help others to discover it.

10. Accredited, Ignored, or Untouchable

Once you start looking at who controls visibility, you can’t unsee who controls leadership, accountability, and silence in this sport. From chefs d’équipe who never seem to leave, to the curious perks of being completely unaccredited, episode ten is about the hierarchy we pretend doesn’t exist, and why sometimes being Jane Doe is the most honest position of all. New episodes of Horzing Around explore the uncomfortable questions equestrian sport keeps avoiding — one story at a time.

9. You Couldn’t Script This (But Somehow, Sweden Did)

Institutions don’t collapse loudly. They unravel quietly, leaking stories through confused timelines, sudden exits, and voices no longer willing to stay inside the room. The Secretary General of the Swedish Equestrian Federation announced his resignation. No scandal. No emergency. He would remain in his role until June 30th to ensure a smooth transition. Orderly. Professional. Reassuring. Then came the rule... An episode about events up in Sweden, Europe. Events that couldn't be scripted but paint a bigger picture. This story has it all, twists, turns, vendettas and power. I also bring up why it seems the rules apply different depending on who is involved.

Dirty Buckets and Digital Fines

Two stories that shouldn’t belong together — but do. In this episode of Horzing Around, we look at what dirty, returned horse gear reveals about neglect, and why the FEI’s new digital vaccination enforcement feels less like progress and more like a symptom. One problem you can smell. One you can’t opt out of. Both raise the same question: what happens when systems tighten because trust already failed? When trust disappears, rules multiply — and buckets never lie.

aflevering It's never any fault of the officials, never... artwork

It's never any fault of the officials, never...

In horse sport, organisers and officials dodge accountability while riders are left to shoulder the fallout. Here’s one more example of how that story plays out, and why the status quo is finally starting to feel unbearable.A couple of months ago, a few meters after the final fence at a national championships in showjumping in one of the Nordic countries, a horse stumbled on a makeshift arena barrier. The was injured so bad it had to be put down.
