It's Not About "Them" | Farmish Kind of Life Podcast | Epi 172 (11-23-21)
There is a difference between relying on each other and relying on Them. I believe healing and progress will take place in our country when there is more of the first and far less of the second, but having less of the second means we have to answer some uncomfortable questions.

Many Hands Make Light Work | Farmish Kind of Life Podcast | Epi 168 (10-27-21)
I've been away for a few weeks working on a huge house renovation project. And today I want to talk about the thing that always gets me: in a world where everyone is busy, where everyone has so much to do, people took time out of their busy lives to help us with ours.

The SHTF Thing We're Not Talking About | Farmish Kind of Life Podcast | Epi 166 (9-28-21)
Before you get too excited about how you’ll take on an apocalyptic collapse of society like a boss, let’s be honest. When put in a situation you’ve never actually been in before, you don’t know *how* you or anyone else will react to or deal with that situation. People both excel and struggle differently—and that is magnified when dealing with stress.
