The podcast episodes from The Archers feature storylines and character arcs that revolve around horses, particularly a horse named Bartleby and the stables business. The issue of Bartleby being sold is a significant part of one character's personal crisis.
The book Defending Animals by Kendra Coulter, as discussed in the New Books in Environmental Studies podcast, also dedicates a chapter to discussing the treatment of horses, especially in industries like horse racing, and the efforts to improve their welfare.
