Welcome to Happy Hour.
Which is better, thongs or spanx? We discuss our favorite underwear to ride in on Episode 15. Also, Michael Jung is making headlines again, only this time as a … show jumper? Justine paid an animal communicator to talk to her horse and a new special guest shares her insider tips on what’s going on at WEF. Thanks for tuning in….

Jess is back, both on the show and in the saddle, after the birth of baby Hudson. She gives us a run down of what it’s like to be a new mom. Meanwhile, we have a new host on the show.

Special guest:


 
 Alex Welles is a 25-year-old amateur show jumper who is as passionate about NFL football as she is horses. She grew up in Huntington, N.Y., and graduated from Florida Atlantic University while competing in Wellington, which is now her “home” for six months of the year. She has two dogs named Maizy and Crouton, and travels with the show circuit circus alongside her professional grand prix riding husband, Andrew.

Jessica Payne is a 32-year-old international event rider who is rarely seen without her long-haired chihuahua under her arm. She was born in London, Ontario but grew up in Franklin, Tenn. and graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Science. She once lost the tip of her pinky finger clipping her 4* horse, and husband Doug says she can “talk to anyone including a wall….and they will like it!”

Two things she loves the most? Whippet puppies and cheese. Justine is a firm believer in unicorns and feminism. So take everything she says with a grain of salt.
