I absolutely love this podcast. I married into a farming family, and did not grow up in the ag industry. I love the takes that both of these ladies have, whether they agree or disagree with each other on whatever topic they’re speaking about. This keeps me wanting to learn more and more about our food industry and gives me tools to do my own research and make my own informed decisions 🙂 a bonus is I love that there is no fear mongering on this pod either, easy to listen to and so fun!
I’m not in the ag industry but spend a lot of time thinking about and researching food topics as a consumer. I love this podcast as it feels like I’m listening to my friends talk about a mix of pop culture and food. I learn so much about food and appreciate their point of view that is different from mine.
I've really love how your podcast has evolved. It's so refreshingly interesting and thought provoking to listen too, yet fun at the same time. It's the perfect intersection of food and agriculture and current events. No good old boys club here. Not boring news either or the same ol' podcast approach.
Hi, I live by the beach in California… we have chickens and wish we could have a little farm but our neighbors might draw the line there haha! I walk my dogs everyday and Thursdays are my favorite because I get to hear you podcast! It’s a refreshing change from the murder/crime podcasts or 100% health based podcasts I listen to. I love your banter with eachother and the information you guys share! It is entertaining and informative! Thank you!
First off I used to really enjoy this podcast, I have listened to a lot of episodes and found them really entertaining. I was really disappointed by the episode on the “Mormon Ag Empire.” As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and employee for a ranch owned by AgReserves, hearing them spread gossip about the ranch not paying taxes (they do) and “motives” the ranch has behind owning land (we have the same motives as anyone else- to be good stewards and make a profit) was really disappointing. Natalie even said she hadn’t had time to do any research behind the article and Tara just seemed really bent on slandering a company in her own industry that, as an insider, I can attest does a lot of good. Their concerns about the ranches bringing employees instead of owners into a community was also pretty elitist, as someone raised in Ag who didn’t inherit or marry into a ranch, working as an employee is my opportunity to be a part of not only ranching but my local community. Overall just disappointed because as a fellow woman in Ag, I believe we should lift others up, not gossip and spread misinformation about each other!
