Our Editor's Take

Esme's Country Life is an audio diary podcast that documents the life of YouTuber Esme Higgs. On her channel, which has about 1 million followers, Esme shares videos about horses, fashion, and country life. This podcast offers a backstage view of her life.

Episodes of the podcast are usually weekly updates about Esme's life as a creator. Much of the content is about her interests. She has a stable of horses and donkeys. Casper bucks when least expected. Joey loves attention. Mickey needs sunscreen on his nose. The show isn't just about her animals, though. One of the recurring topics is the old cottage she is renovating. It's a job that seems to get bigger by the day.

Fans of Esme might enjoy the honesty with which she shares about her life on the podcast. She is busy with speaking engagements, photo shoots, and quick trips to Italy. She talks about the day she spent following around duck-herding border collies. In the evening, she heads to a gala for London Fashion Week. She goes barefoot shopping on Oxford Street in London for a photo op. As an equestrian, Esme attends all the major horse shows in Europe, as well as some local ones.

Much of Esme's content is about her beloved animals. She provides listeners with frequent updates on Joey's injuries. Living on a farm with chickens and sheep can also be an adventure. Horseback riding means lots of falls, and Esme reports on her regular tumbles.

One of Esme's most endearing qualities is her vulnerability on the podcast. She shares how frightening she finds public speaking to be. She devotes an episode to exposing the toxicity of some of the comments on her videos and calls for less hate. Esme is accident-prone and reports her embarrassing stories with levity.

Listeners curious about the life of a YouTuber will get a snapshot from Esme's Country Life. It may also be a good choice for horse lovers.
