The Tea & Trails Podcast

Outstanding! The only podcast that makes you feel you are around the kitchen table having a brew and a good chat about the best subject. The mixture of guests is great and Eddie and Gary keep it real. I’m a dull and boring guy but even this brings a smile to my face. Thank you and keep doing what you do!

Absolutely recommend Eddie and Gary to anyone who loves a podcast that has anything to do with running. There’s no better feeling than popping the headphones in for my weekly long run and sharing the local trails with these guys. I’ve learnt so much from listening to this show and just love to have a decent 2 hour average window of my week of running chat.

Found this podcast when starting out running ultras this year after a weight loss journey and finding trail running. Since then I am listening weekly and listening to Eddie and Gary is like sitting in a cosy cafe with a nice cuppa chatting. The last few months have been emotional with long journeys to support poorly family members. On those long journeys having Eddie and Gary to listen to has been the comfort I needed to ground myself and be able to face the emotional rollercoaster. Thank you both for letting us into your lives and building such a welcoming community.

Listening to Gary’s and Eddie’s ups and downs each week never fails to entertain and inform in equal measure - you really do feel like you run, hike, puke, walk and occasionally crawl every mile with them out on the trails. Such unmissable highlights include Gary inadvertently “fully exposing” himself on Crib Goch, and those now *cough cough* infamous red shorts, to name just two. To tune in for two hours and listen to all things trail running, which both informs and entertains, is, quite simply, sensational. Every Friday without fail I listen to the podcast in my work van driving to Glasgow, and I can honestly say it’s the highlight of my week. Keep up the great work! Andy Painting, Selkirk
