    BIG Six Nations Review, Sarries Back with a BANG & Ellie LOVES Hand-offs

    We’re back on the rodeo sofa and this week it’s wall-to-wall rugby. 🤠🏉 On this episode of Rugby Rodeo, Ellie Kildunne and Jess Breach react to a HUGE weekend in the women’s game – and a blockbuster opening round of the men’s Six Nations championship too. We start with a ruthless statement win for Saracens against Leicester Tigers – including Jess’ flying return to action. Was there any fear of rust after such a long break… or did the bodies feel fresher than ever? Then it’s one of the games of the season so far as Harlequins and Exeter Chiefs play out a 38–38 thriller. Three sin-bins, relentless Quins pressure, a missed kick at the death… and Ellie talks us through her try – the dummy, the hand-off and the finish. Pure class. The girls also dive into the opening weekend of the men’s Six Nations Championship – breaking down England’s big win over Wales, France’s statement performance against Ireland (including that pre-match light show and blockbuster TV audience), and Italy’s shock victory over Scotland in absolutely horrendous conditions. Plus…💌 Valentine’s Day plans🎤 Jess’ behind-the-scenes 02 room stories🔥 favourite tries of the weekend – and why they stood out🌧️ how much rain really levels a match And of course… it wouldn’t be Rugby Rodeo without your questions.One song they’d survive on for a year, hidden talents, everyday things that make them happy – and what their Instagram algorithms think they’re obsessed with. We finish with a massive round of community shout-outs – grassroots wins, debuts, comebacks from injury, first-ever girls’ XVs, derby doubles on the line… and even a special celebration recommendation for a first try this weekend.

    The Journey to the Red Roses FEAT Jess' Mum

    We have a VERY special episode this week on Rugby Rodeo, as for the first time ever, Jess' mum Trish joins us! But before the family interview, the girls catch up on a very busy week. Ellie lifts the lid on releasing her own book – how the whole idea came about, what the writing process was really like, and what fans can expect inside... There’s also one of the wildest off-field stories of the season, as Ellie tells the full tale of how Jason Derulo ended up asking for her number. Then… it’s time for a truly special chat as Jess’s mum joins the show. She talks about when she first realised rugby wasn’t just a hobby for Jess, what Jess was really like growing up at home, and what supporting an elite athlete actually looks like as a parent. From watching her daughter make her England debut, to dealing with the nerves of big collisions and injuries – and sharing the moments fans never get to see – it’s an honest, emotional and brilliantly personal conversation. To finish, Jess’s mum reflects on how proud she feels seeing women’s rugby grow, and what it means knowing her daughter is part of the generation helping change the game. Yeehaw. 🎙️🤠 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Sophie Power: Breastfeeding mid-way through a 100mile race, ULTRA Marathons & Changing the Sport for Good.

    This week on Rugby Rodeo, Ellie Kildunne and Jess Breach are joined on the Rodeo sofa by one of the toughest, most inspiring athletes on the planet — Sophie Power. Sophie is a world-leading ultra-marathon runner, Guinness World Record holder and a genuine trailblazer in endurance sport. She first became globally known after an extraordinary photo of her breastfeeding her three-month-old baby mid-race during a 100+ mile mountain ultra — an image later named by The Guardian as one of the photos that reshaped sport, sparking a global conversation about equality, motherhood and opportunity for women in sport. Ahead of the release of her new autobiography The Power Within, Sophie takes us inside the wild world of ultra-running: what an ultra-marathon actually is, how you even begin to train for events that last days, and why her very first race was the infamous Marathon des Sables — a 250km, self-supported slog across the Sahara Desert in 40–50°C heat. She opens up about “going to dark places”, the real dangers of extreme endurance racing (including a race that left her in a coma with a 50% chance of death), and the mental resilience needed to keep moving when your body wants to stop. We also dive deep into the story behind that iconic UTMB photo — why she raced while breastfeeding, what it cost her, and why pregnancy is still treated differently to injury in elite sport. There’s also plenty on Sophie’s work beyond racing. She tells Ellie and Jess about her charity SheRaces, the SheRaces guidelines, and her mission to create fairer, safer and more inclusive start lines — from trail running to rugby pitches. Settle back, enjoy — and make sure you’re subscribed. 'The Power Within' is out now at all good retailers and is also available in audiobook format.

    Liv Apps: RWC Heartache, Embracing Individuality & English Culture

    It’s the final episode of the year and we’re going out with an absolute cracker. This week, Ellie and Jess are joined in studio by Canada international scrum-half and Saracens star Liv Apps — one of the most exciting players in the women’s game right now. From RWC stardom to making an instant impact in the PWR, Liv opens up like never before. Liv takes us through how her short-term move to Saracens came about and what life has been like settling into a new club and country. We rewind all the way back to her rugby beginnings in Canada, a nation where rugby isn’t always front and centre, and explore the journey that’s shaped her both on and off the pitch. In a powerful and honest conversation, Liv shares her story of being diagnosed with alopecia at just seven years old, how it affected her growing up, learning to embrace her identity, and becoming a role model for young girls watching her perform on the biggest stages in world rugby. She also reflects on the heartbreak of the Rugby World Cup final, how she processes that experience now, and the advice she’d give her younger self.
