It's a lighthearted break from the usual, with plenty of laughs and surprising truths!

Plus, Madeline and Cat share updates on their latest venture—a new stable in South Jersey! Stick around for listener shoutouts, spooky horse tales, and a preview of next week’s exciting season finale with Jessica Redman. Don’t miss it!
