For many decades the NSW Riverina has produced an endless list of outstanding trainers and jockeys. One of the latest recruits to hit the headlines on the big stage is young jockey Tyler Schiller who reeled off a couple of Gr 1 wins during the recent Championships. One man to leave his mark as a jockey and trainer is Dave Heywood who retired in 2020 after six decades in the racing industry. As a jockey he rode exclusively in the Riverina and Victoria. Surprisingly he never once got to ride on a Sydney track but he trained numerous winners in the harbour city. Dave Heywood earned the respect of all sections of the industry during 12 years in the saddle and another 48 years as a trainer. The rising 80 year old is in reminiscent mood as he joins us on the podcast. Dave says he's blessed with good health. Right off the top he answers the commonly asked question about his relationship if any to ace jockey Nick Heywood. Dave says his primary sporting interests these days revolve around the dart board and the pool room. Few realise Dave was Victorian born. He explains how the family got to settle in the Riverina. The veteran horseman remembers riding trackwork at age 11 for legendary trainer Bert Honeychurch who became his master. Dave hasn't forgotten his very first day as a professional jockey. He greeted the judge twice. He talks about the horses involved. He still remembers the thrill of riding a winner first up on the historic Flemington course. Dave looks back on the transfer of his indentures to top Melbourne trainer Brian Courtney. He realises how lucky he was to pick up a ride in the Melbourne Cup at just 15 years of age. He talks of the horse he rode for an iconic trainer and takes us through the running of the Centenary Melbourne Cup of 1960. One of the runners was Dave's favourite horse. He looks back on his association with the man who took Phar Lap to America in 1932. Dave got to ride the talented Webster in an unsuitable race at Werribee. Although unplaced he still regards the horse as the best he ever rode in a race. He acknowledges several other talented horses he got to ride during his time in Melbourne. One of them was owned by a Hollywood movie legend. Dave was back in the Riverina in 1969. His weight was on the rise but he managed to ride for another few years with great success. He's especially proud of a winning sequence over two days at Benalla. He explains that he was actually talked into applying for a trainer's licence. Dave looks back on his “Indies trilogy”- Prince Of Indies, Pride Of Indies and King Of Indies, three talented horses who won more than 60 races between them. He pays tribute to his late brother-in-law Russ Milne who owned the Indies trio. He also loved a punt whenever his horses were racing. Dave is adamant the unsound Shadameneo was the best horse he trained. The former outstanding horseman pays tribute to the indestructible Green Ridge, veteran of 200 race starts. He looks back on prolific winners like Vain Alert, Hillston Exchange, Man Of Peace and Living On A Prayer. This is a long overdue chat with a great competitor and a gentleman of Riverina racing.
It's been a tough couple days on the news front for Wisconsin. Zach and Jesse dive into Kevin Heywood's likely season-ending injury, the departures of two recent transfer portal additions, some positives from the last couple of practices and the commitment of 3-star QB Ryan Hopkins.

The Puritans were a diverse group of evangelically-minded, confessionally reformed pastors of the seventeenth century whose great priority was to glorify God in their personal lives, in their families, and in the churches they served. This week we introduce two lesser-known Puritans from the north of England, Thomas Jolley (or Jollie) and Oliver Heywood, along with some of their brethren. In the crucible of affliction, these men proved the faithfulness of God to those who labour in His harvest fields, even when the harvest is hampered by temptations within and trials without.

25 years ago, Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan began filming a documentary about a new, one-year-old organization and the family that founded it. That organization was called the ALS Therapy Development Foundation, and its mission was to find treatments for ALS. It was started by Jamie Heywood, whose brother Stephen had been diagnosed with the disease at the age of 29. The film they made, So Much So Fast, came out in 2006. It received critical acclaim and was screened at the Sundance Film Festival. It documents five years in the lives of the Heywood family as they dealt with Stephen’s progressing disease while simultaneously building what would eventually become ALS TDI, the world’s most comprehensive drug discovery lab dedicated solely to ALS. Today, on Endpoints, Steven and Jeanne join us to talk about what it was like during the earliest days of ALS TDI, what it's been like watching the organization evolve, and how their own story helped inspire the film.

Imagine being Suzanne Heywood, a seven-year-old girl who must abandon all she knows: friends, school, home and surroundings because her parent's dream is to spend three years sailing across the globe, retracing the route of Captain James Cook. Three years turned into a decade and a living nightmare aboard the Wavewalker-A 70-foot sailboat boat, often shared with strangers to help fund the trip. The family encounters violent storms and life-threatening injuries, and for Suzanne emotional abandonment, and isolation even within her family. Yet, amidst the chaos, she found solace and determination in education, meticulously crafting her lifeline to escape-a true and powerful story of trauma to triumph, resilience and reclamation.

Washingtonians voted down three tax-related initiatives that would have repealed the state's cap and trade program, made the state's long term care program optional, and repealed the state's new capital gains tax. Those lost by large margins. One initiative passed, it protects access to and use of natural gas. All four initiatives were backed by hedge fund manager Brian Heywood, who put $6 million into signature gathering. Heywood claimed that the policies he was trying to repeal amounted to taxes on Washingtonians. And historically, Washington voters have been receptive to initiatives that cut their taxes. $30 car tabs? Bring it on said voters in 1999, 2002, and again in 2019. Require a super majority to pass new taxes in the state legislature? We'll have some of that, said voters in 2007 and 2012. Limit property tax increases? Why not? Said voters in 2000 and 2001. So what went wrong this time? That's what we're asking my next guest, a longtime anti-tax activist who has used the initiative process many times to successfully limit local government's ability to collect money.

What's it like to be pulled from your home at just seven years old and set adrift on the open ocean? How do you survive ten years of brutal storms, danger, and isolation on a small yacht with your family? In this episode, Suzanne Heywood shares the chaos of her childhood spent sailing around the world—constant physical and emotional storms, tight living spaces, and the fight to hold onto hope.

You won't see Brian Heywood's name on your ballot this November but you will see his impact. Heywood is a Redmond based hedge fund manager who spent millions of dollars of his own money to fund citizen's initiatives against the state's cap and invest system, capital gains tax, and long term care insurance program.
