Double D's Episode 21: Racing Legends, Media Real Talk & a Touch of Chaos

Another week, another brilliant episode of Double D’s Live Podcast—and this one had everything. From a salute to one of racing’s greatest riders to honest AI talk and questionable organisational skills, Episode 21 was packed with the kind of real, refreshing conversation you’ve come to expect from us.

🏇 Rachael Blackmore: A Legend in Her Own League

We kicked things off by talking about one of the most accomplished riders of our time—Rachael Blackmore. No frills, no gender qualifiers, just sheer talent.

We discussed how Rachael has reshaped how we view success in racing, doing it all with grace, humility, and raw ability. She's not just a role model for women in sport—she’s a role model full stop. We’ll be watching closely (and cheering loudly) to see what she takes on next. The future looks unstoppable.

🤖 AI, Equitas & Redefining Media

Next up was a conversation close to our hearts—why Equitas is diving deep into AI and digital media transformation.

We chatted through:
🔹 Why we’re investing in AI tools at Equitas
🔹 What redefining media actually means in today’s world
🔹 How we’re building something that reflects true equity—as women, as equestrians, and as entrepreneurs

We know it’s a big conversation and there’s a lot of curiosity around it, so we want to be open, honest, and transparent. If you’ve got questions—ask us. This is a space where curiosity is welcome and honesty is encouraged.

As always, we made room for a bit of fun...

This week’s quick-fire round included:
🎨 What posters were on our walls as kids
👩‍💼 Our very first jobs
📱 Where we spend the most time on social media (no judgment, please!)

Turns out, a lot has changed—but also, not really.

🐴 Ride & Wrong of the Week

Muir's ride and wrong took a bittersweet turn this week, reminding us that some of the most powerful reflections come from tough moments.

Meanwhile, Sarah’s “wrong” has her genuinely wondering:
Is she more relaxed lately?
Or has she just completely lost the run of herself? 🤰🏻

We’ll let the listeners decide.
