The Hoof of the Horse Podcast

This was a really interesting episode to record with Jim Apple, a farrier with European and Native American heritage. Make sure you listen right to the end to hear Jim singing a traditional song with his son.

I recorded this podcast with Mitch Taylor and Gavin Moody in Türkiye while we had a little road trip to celebrate the end of the first exams at the farrier school they worked hard together to set up with the Turkish Jockey Club. We discuss exactly how do you teach farriery to a group of men who mostly do not speak English and have never worked with horses before, and in particular, how to you do it well and see the great results that they have.

This one is for all the gluers out there. I had a great conversation with Garrett Ford at the last IHCS, and of course like in all of my podcasts, we cover many other topics As I now head out for the 2025 Summit I look forward to having many more interesting conversations like this one.
