S2E6 - Shooting the breeze with Weaver

George and Charlie: Off the Bridle

Classic-winning jockey turned broadcaster Jason Weaver makes for a superb interview in an episode in which we are also joined by York Racecourse boss William Derby. Jason shares his fascinating story in which he switched from being a budding teenage scrum-half in Wales to a star of the saddle. He reflects on a fine career as a jockey, including offering insights on two of his former bosses Luca Cumani and Mark Johnston. Jason also speaks with candour about his second career as a racing presenter and pundit for ITV Racing and Sky Sports Racing. In the week of the Ebor Festival, William Derby joins us to talk about how York Racecourse has been facing the challenges of racing behind closed doors. Fellowes and Scott also outline how they’re back in five-a-side football action, plus there’s promising news about the Off The Bridle Podcast Syndicate horses.
