The Stable Hands Podcast

You might be surprised to learn that this episode was not, in fact, sponsored by White Claw. Rather, it's just two guys chatting about Zed and musing over a couple of horses. Recorded shortly after the aging release, we start the conversation in the obvious spot before getting a little more specific on some horses. Jake's knowledge is so deep that I couldn't resist raising a couple of my own nags for him to take a look at. One thing to look out for is to hear Jake describe his strategy for racing up through the conditional brackets, this was actually very interesting. Hope you enjoy this one, as always - if you want to be a guest on the show, hit me up on Twitter at @eclecticTec! DM's are open :)

Ever have one of those moments where you wish you didn't have any deadlines to finish? This was my experience with this conversation with Bg. Sit down, grab a pen to take notes, and enjoy this conversation with the GOAT of horse math, Bg. We cover plenty in this conversation, although only getting through about one third of the questions I had for him! Hopefully, we can make this part one of a series in the coming months but for now, this one will have to stand on it's own. We touch on the recent DP Twitter 'controversy' and in the spirit of the season, there's (what I think is) a wonderful little easter egg there at the end. So I hope you enjoy this conversation, I learnt so much talking to Bg that I'm really looking forward to listening to this multiple times to actually get the chance to take it all in. As always, if you're interested in becoming a guest on the show - hit me up on Twitter, @eclecticTec :) Would love to chat about digital horses!

This week I get to sit down (well, zoom call) with McGuineas Racing! A great chat with a very strategic and considered mind from the Zed ecosystem here. p.s. keep an eye out for his variance monster in C4 sprints people :P I know I will... Hope you enjoy! 

Chatting with Red about Zed Run is so damn infectious! This was a great conversation that seemed to flow over many different Zed topics with ease. Red, while not a 'Zed conspiracy theorist' per se, certainly didn't mind indulging me in a couple of mine as we discussed why Facundo keeps nerfing my stable. But seriously, in between it all there was some really good knowledge dropped from Red, something that makes for some great listening. I hope you enjoy this chat with Redmans Smoke House. 

DOUBLE DIGITS! We made it to episode 10, the last of the Genesis episodes!This week I sit down with Mace Racing for a really enjoyable conversation about how she runs her stable and we dive into some breeding strategies among some other treats. I took a week off last week, got some much needed IRL R&R done! Hopefully you didn't miss the weekly release too much :) As always, I'm super keen to meet Zed stable owners and chat about all things Zed Run - hit me up if you'd like to come on! You can find me on Twitter, @eclecticTec :) 

This week I got to chat Zed with Bella from Rockabella Racing! This was a really fun conversation that I learnt so much from. I really enjoyed Bella's points around pyschology of playing the game, this really got the wheels turning in my head. So much in here to dive into, hope you enjoy this chat with Bella!

This week I sat down with Jet Thunder Racing, for a discussion on all things Zed! Jet actually lays out a case for BA as the trait to be chasing in this new meta, which will be very interesting to watch now the 3.0 conditionals are among us. Jet also is the curator of Novus Earth Control, the one stop shop for all the content creators, tool owners and links to the people you should be familiar with in the Zed Ecosystem today. Definitely worth checking this awesome resource out!

This week I sat down with Brendan from Sample Gates Stable to discuss the running of the inaugural 'Beat the Beasts' tournament that was recently run and organised by McGuineas Racing! We discuss strategies that went into it, our horrible results in attempting it, but most of all we break down the experience and what it brings to the world of Zed Run. Huge props to both the organisers and especially the stables that donated horses so that we could taste, if only for a short time, the thrill of racing a monster horse!Hope you enjoy this one!

This week, I sit down with Mike from Moonshot Ranch for a really enjoyable conversation on all things Zed Run. Mike's enthusiam and passion for Zed is so infectious, 'High BA and low race discipline' is probably the best quote I've heard to date. As always, I'm always interested in talking to any and all Zed stable owners, jockeys and enthusiasts. If that sounds like you, hit me up on Twitter - @eclecticTech as I'd love to have the conversation. Until then, please enjoy this episode with Moonshot Ranch!

This week I'm chatting with John from Emeral Aussie Stables. John gets into how he got into Zed in the early days with a couple of mates and we get to chatting about the allround general awesomeness of the Zed Run community. If you listen closely, you might hear him also address a recent controversy - putting that issue to bed once and for all. John hosts a Twitter space regularly with his most recent being an absolute banger that was joined by Facundo for a deep Zed dive. Definitely worth a listen for good deep knowledge of the game. I hope you enjoy listening and, as always, if you're playing the game of Zed Run and you'd like to be a guest on the show please reach out on Twitter - @eclecticTech and we'll tee something up. 

This week, i'm really excited to be talking with the creator of ZLEAD and SNPro, Danshan. There's tons of knoweldge in here, especially if you're a new player as Danshan goes deep on how to think about breeding correctly in 3.0 and explains how to create that great foal using only the free tools available to all (have you even heard of ZLEAD?). This is a must catch episode, one that I really enjoyed making - hope you enjoy listening to it at least half as much. Checkout ZLEAD for all your Zed Run racing stats requirements, I couldn't live without it. 

This week I talk with Kyle from Avon Fields Stables, finding out about how he runs his stable and also jockeys on the side. Check out Kyle's explanation of breeding in terms of making a great margarita - this really made sense for me! Check out Avon Fields Stables on Twitch for even more awesome Zed contant.

This week I'm talking with Steve from Scuba Steve Stables. This was also recorded shortly after the release of the new racing meta, so check us out for any of our predictions and how they are panning out!You should also check out Steve's YouTube channel,  Scuba Steve Stables - great content for all things Zed Run.

Welcome to the Genesis Episode! In this episode we talk to Sangundo Stables. This episode was recorded shortly after the release of the 'Racing 2.0' update in Zed Run.
