Following the Fair Hill International CCI3* Boyd Martin will begin co-hosting the popular Eventing Radio Show, an Internet radio show that is broadcast around the world.
"I've been interviewed a few times on the radio show in preparation for some of the big events and I quite enjoy getting on there," said Boyd."They thought they needed a personality from the sport, and I plan to ask the tough questions. I'm just putting a warning out there - I'll put the people I interview on the spot and I want some answers!";
Host and founder of the show Chris Stafford said, "The Eventing Radio Show is pleased to welcome Boyd Martin as a guest co-host on the show. Boyd will be alternating with Jennie Brannigan, who is also based at True Prospect Farm."
Boyd commented, "The show gets broadcast around the world and reaches a lot of people, from Australia to England to Nigeria and wherever you can imagine. I have a lot of friends in Australia who listen in. That's the beauty of Internet versus regular radio, so it can focus on eventing around the world rather than revolving around the scene here in the US ."
