Full Disclosure Farming: BrutallyHonest AgChats

We're highlighting a couple of our favorite conversations from 2024 and looking forward to a new and different 2025! Happy New Year pod-fam!

We are recording ON SITE at the Stockmanship and Stewardship event for the Eastern side of the US with Ron Gill and Curt Pate talking all things cattle handling. Also hear briefly from their BQA expert with details about the program. The audio isn't as crystal as we like because of the recording space but it's a worthwhile conversation + we hope you enjoy it!

We're finally back in the pod seats + providing an update from the last episode as well as moving on! Thanks for hanging around, I think you can confidently seek out regular episodes now that Fall is officially here. We're happy to be back in it.

Wow, we got lost in the hustle of summer but we're back for a chit chat on how it's okay to make mistakes, if you can learn from them!

We're chatting about the testosterone dump that is all too common in leaders + ways to mitigate that PLUS an adjusted summer schedule, which we've already started if you hadn't noticed.

We're back after skipping Fathers Day recording for the hay project. A lot has happened since we've been gone - here is the update + some reflection on the basis of success: people.

One of our favorite + most influential business associates joins us today after his annual visit to answer some questions and talk banking. Enjoy!

We're chattering today about working with your spouse successfully as result from a listener question. Send in more questions! We enjoy these discussions.

We're back - playing catchup on all that has been happening here around the farm + discussing the ever changing journey that is farming with family. We apprecite you all hanging around!

We're passing up on the full episode this week + will be back next week!

You'll realize the pun later BUT we're here to help you find your way into making sure you and your family are the most important part of your story!

We're continuing the saga today with an update and ultimately a conversation on valuing your peace of mind, enough to make changes that suit it. Sometimes you need to know when enough is enough!

This topic is a marathon not a sprint, so the saga continues. Managing family members is HARD and it's usually messy. Unfortunately it's an engrained part of Ag life and we're trying to make the best of it.

We're chatting all things change; we have some hopeful changes on the horizon to help us make this business benefit us more instead of us working endlessly to benefit the business!

We're revisiting last weeks topic briefly and bouncing onto imposter syndrome. A short one but a good one, let us know where we need to go next!

We're helping Joe vent and diving into why the humans are the way they are, rude comments and judgements on our teamwork.

We're sitting down after a long day of COLD filming to chat with Michelle Martin from the Ag Mag & videographer/photographer Aaron Trevino who were in town featuring Yankee Beef today for an episode of their Ag on Wheels segment. We chit chat about the good + bad of social media, our day of filming and whatever else comes up!

We're sitting down with Erica Leubner, from Central NY, she's on Tiktok as @farmercounselor and she is a farm business advisor / counselor therapist dedicated to specifically helping farm families and farm businesses be successful and transfer generations. Laugh with us, in what will be the first of several guest episodes with Erica.

In honor of Women's Day, we're chatting with Mrs. Yankee Farmer about her background and stepping into Ag as an outsider. We talk about women in male dominated industry, and then JJ joins us for some Q&A.

We're describing how we setup for calving season and our calf care protocols, plus chatting about the open house + our next upcoming guest!

This one is all over the place but we sought to address the more challenging Ag times that are ahead!

We sat down with Clayton and Blake Phelps to chat about almost everything under the sun. An enjoyable chat, which will be 1 of many.

We're casually discussing farm transition options when the next generation is either not interested, not up to it or there isn't a next generation to even talk about!

We're sitting down today to discuss the important of selling yourself and promoting agriculture in the proper fashion - we're using some of our favorite pages from Mrs. Yankee's Farm Biz Selling workbook as a guide! Workbook available at YankeeBeef.com

This episode, to summarize, is casual chaos. We had a topic we wanted to address and ultimately it way-laid into various stories and snippets. Call it a big, get to know us!   We will be back on the formal topic train next week, unless you enjoy this style and we can keep it in the rotation for now and again.
