07 Feb 2022S8 E4: Add Hunting into Your Homestead Strategy with Stacy Lynn Harris00:53:17

We’re diving into a topic we’ve never discussed here before, and I think you’re going to love the insight Stacy Lyn Harris brings to this “meaty” episode. 

We’re breaking down the numerous benefits to hunted meats, comparing grass-fed beef to wild meat, talking about how to hunt even if you don’t own land to hunt on, and even walking through exactly how to start if you’re new to hunting and how to prepare wild game versus domesticated meat.

Stacy Lyn Harris is a best-selling cookbook author. She is also a blogger, speaker, wife, and homeschooling mother of seven children, as well as host of The Sporting Chef TV Show on The Outdoor Channel.

14 Feb 2022S8 E5: Down and Dirty Meal Planning with Lisa Bass00:38:32

In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to be chatting with a long-time friend, Lisa Bass, of Farmhouse on Boone. 

Lisa talks about how she lived the farm life while living in town. And how she cooked like a homesteader before she even owned a farm.

And Lisa and I delve deep into a topic that has always been a thorn in my side. Lisa breaks down the secrets behind her meal planning, how she’s developed a system of routines that works well for her large family. We chat about our family’s staple meals. And Lisa shares numerous great tips, not to mention a few secret weapons too.

And be sure to hop over to Lisa’s podcast—Simple Farmhouse Life—for the rest of our conversation today.

07 Mar 2022S8 E8: Are Vegetables Bad for You? with Justin Rhodes01:01:47

Today we're talking about meat in a way we haven't before here on the podcast.  My good friend, Justin Rhodes, is sitting down with me to talk about his version of what some people might call the carnivore diet, or the zero carb diet. Basically, we're talking about what it looks like to eat an exclusively animal-based diet.

We're debunking casseroles,  joking about cabbage killers, talking about chickens as gardeners, and agreeing that neither of us are fans of tongue tacos.

14 Mar 2022S8 E9: Solving Sourdough: The Science Behind What Works with Karyn Newman00:50:02

Today we're diving deep into the unseen world of sourdough microbes. Karyn Newman, author of the new book Sourdough by Science, personifies the many parts of our sourdough starters and explains the chemistry happening in our kitchens to help us make perfect sourdough loaves. Every time.

Find out the best time to feed your starter, why the fridge is your starter's friend,  and what character in your starter is the most important one (and how to care for it best).

Even learn how to convert any traditional bread recipe to a sourdough one! 

I learned so much from this episode, even what I've been doing wrong when I try to use my fresh flour to make my sourdough bread and how to fix it. (I couldn't believe how simple this is!)

About the author: Karyn Newman began her professional life in editing, then embarked on a career in the sciences after earning her PhD in cellular and molecular biology. And she also happens to love baking. She loves using her science background to help non-science folks understand the important details of making a perfect loaf of sourdough bread.

21 Mar 2022S8 E10: Magical Animal Fats with Michelle Visser01:15:26

Join me as I sit down with one of my very favorite persons, Michelle Visser. Michelle's family raises pigs on their New England farm. (In fact, reach out to Michelle if you're looking for a great source of pasture-raised pork in the New Hampshire area.)

Michelle is also a published author and my Marketing & Project Manager (pretty much one of my right hands on The Prairie Homestead team).

Michelle and I get a little starry-eyed and do a deep dive into two good animal fats today. We break down the kinds of fat you can source from cows and pigs, why this fat is so good for us, why it ever got such a bad rap, how to render it, how to use each kind of fat, and where to get it if you're not a pig or cattle farmer yourself.

23 May 2022S9 E6: Can You Grow Apples in the Arctic?00:38:40

Today I'm talking with Bob Osborne, columnist on CBC radio,  a Canadian farmer with more than 40 years of experience with all things apples, and the author of a brand new book, Hardy Apples.

Bob and I chat about how to grow healthy apples (even in cold climates), talk about the Renaissance of apples, and discuss why there are thousands of different apples out there but only the standard five options available in the grocery store.

And we may wind up gushing a little over all things apple crisp and apple cider.

Today I’m talking with Allison Askew of Arrow J Beef Co., a first-generation rancher with a lot of irons in a lot of fires. She’s sharing her inspiring story of unconventional homesteading to encourage everyone who doesn’t feel like they fit in any one particular box. If you ever feel like you’re wearing too many hats to actually be good at any one thing, take heart. If you're overwhelmed, or tired of feeling like you're not understood by those around you, Allison has some words of wisdom just for you.

04 Jul 2022S9 E12: Soda Fountains, Small Towns, and Life Lessons00:34:54

In this episode we're chatting about what it feels like to allow ourselves to be fully seen, to be vulnerable and raw. And we're talking about life in small-town America... how moving to a place that needs you and your skills and your talents might be a great option for you.

Let's break down the reasons you might wanna consider some of the off-the-beaten-path towns that don't check all the boxes but just might be a perfect backdrop for starting your own unconventional homestead. Because I think it's time to bring revival to small-town America, and maybe you and I are the ones who need to be taking action.

01 Aug 2022S10 E2: Free-Range Kids: How & Why with Lenore Skenazy01:02:46

Today we have a fascinating guest, Lenore Skenazy, the author of the book Free-Range Kids and the founder of a nonprofit that is making it easy, normal, and legal to give kids independence.

We're diving into an intriguing topic of free-range kids and the impact it has on them when adults mitigate all risks. We'll talk about how as a society we got where we are, with parents afraid to let their kids play in the front yard or walk to the corner. And we'll outline practical steps parents can take to give kids a free-range lifestyle--outside and off of electronics--no matter where they live, from a rural homestead to a bustling city.

08 Aug 2022S10 E3: Rethinking an Old-Fashioned Life with Rory Feek01:09:23

Rory Feek joins me today to talk about why we think our current generation is the most depressed one that's ever lived and how we can slowly go about opting out of the systems, even without a detailed plan. We talk about how we can, one step at a time, become more autonomous and independent, while simultaneously investing more in the community.

15 Aug 2022S10 E4: Pushing Back Against Consumer Culture with Shannon Hayes00:50:18

Join in on my conversation with the author of Radical Homemakers and Redefining Rich as she breaks down the meaning of "homemaker" in ways you've never thought of.

In today's episode, Shannon and I talk about how a true homemaker learns skills so she is free to live by the principles that are most important to her, all the while working through the important steps of renouncing, reclaiming, and rebuilding, and figuring out what these steps look like for her.

Shannon and I talk about what it looks like to grapple with the macro issues and the micro issues, and in all that chaotic imperfection, to find happiness and redefine "wealth."

I'm thrilled to be talking with Michael Easter today, an award-winning journalist, contributing editor at Men’s Health magazine, and author of The Comfort Crisis.

Michael breaks down how our world has gotten more and more "comfortable" since the Industrial Revolution, why this isn't necessarily a good thing, and why more folks today need to do what homesteaders, as a natural inclination, tend to do... challenge themselves and lean into "hard."

24 Oct 2022S10 E14: Ingenious Chicken Keeping with Harvey Ussery00:59:16

I'm thrilled that a bigger and better second edition of The Small Scale Poultry Flock has just been released, and the author, Harvey Ussery, is here today to share so much chicken knowledge!

We talk about predators, gardens, weeds, cover crops, and lots more, and what all these things have to do with chickens. As well as why the best solutions to so many chicken problems--the natural ones that are cheap or free--aren't the ones you often hear about.

09 Jan 2023S11 E7: Thinking Outside the System with Matt Beaudreau00:53:42

I'm thrilled to be talking with Matt Beaudreau today. And I think you'll love joining in our conversation about doing crazy things that society doesn't always agree with.

Matt, a well-known speaker and co-creator of Apogee Strong, talks about how we all consistently seeing patterns in society over and over and naively thinking that, "okay, I'll take the next step, and that's where I will gain some element of control to be able to actually impact the situation." 

Matt breaks down how this thought process is all wrong, how he stepped out of that rut, and how we can too.

16 Jan 2023S11 E8: First Generation Ranchers: Our Beef Story00:46:58

He's baaack... but this time Christian and I are chatting about our beef story.

Join us as we walk through how we broke out of the limited mindset that told us we couldn't do this, what scared each of us the most (you may be surprised), and if all the experts are right that you can't be a rancher unless you're born or married into it.

If you've ever had a dream that others tell you is impossible, there's good stuff in this episode for you.

The Haselmayers--like most families--don't own a farm, but they've learned that doesn't mean they need to sacrifice nutrition. Join us as Liz and I share lots of practical insights into this timely topic.

06 Mar 2023S11 E15: Building Old-Fashioned Community with Gary Chapman00:28:13

It’s one of the most old-fashioned practices we can cultivate in our modern culture. And no, it’s not baking sourdough, or growing vegetables, or milking a cow… I’m talking about building community.

So why is it so hard? And how can we navigate relationships in our ultra-polarized world?

Dr. Gary Chapman, best-selling author of The 5 Love Languages, is joining us today to talk about building & mending community in a world that seems determined to keep us isolated.

13 Mar 2023S11 E16: The Rise of The Farmfluencer00:36:05

I've been sharing homesteading online since 2010, but lately, the online homestead world has started to feel different....

If you spend much time surfing Instagram, you might think you need a historic white farmhouse, period-appropriate clothing, and a magazine-worthy kitchen to live this old-fashioned life. But is the rise of "farmfluencing" actually hurting the movement?

How can we celebrate the beautiful while also embracing the ugly? We're diving into this sticky topic on today's episode!

24 Apr 2023S12 E4: Pastured Pork IS Possible (Even on the Prairie!)01:12:21

08 May 2023S12 E6: Forging a Connection with Wild Waters with Conor Sullivan00:46:58

We talk a lot about connecting to nature here on the podcast, but it's usually through the lens of agriculture, cultivating, and farming.

But that's just the beginning. Wildcrafting, hunting, and fishing connect us to the natural world in powerful way. I'm thrilled to be joined by author and angler, Conor Sullivan, in this podcast episode. We talk about the similarities between the ocean and the prairie, why fishing may just be your next old-fashioned adventure, how to start fishing as an adult (even if you've never done it before), and his best tried-and-true fish cooking tips.

15 May 2023S12 E7: A Year of No Garbage... (Really!)00:52:26

What does trash have to do with homesteading? Well, everything. As we progress on our old-fashioned journeys, it quickly becomes apparent that everything is connected-- our food, our health, and our environments. And trash, specifically plastic, is a huge issue. However, once again, and old-fashioned mindset is the answer to this very modern problem. 

In this podcast episode, I'm thrilled to be joined by internationally published author and humorist Eve O. Schaub to discuss her new book, A Year of No Garbage. Not only does she make this topic entertaining, she makes it feel doable. You're going to enjoy this one.

22 May 2023S12 E8: The Un-Formula for a Sustainable Homestead00:58:30

One of the most common questions I get is "how do I design the perfect homestead layout?" The bad news? There isn't a one-size-fits-all formula. The good news? Once you understand a handful of concepts, you'll have the tools to know what your unique site needs to thrive. 

In this podcast episode, I'm joined by Angela Ferraro-Fanning of Axe and Root Homestead for this enlightening and inspiring conversation into permaculture, homestead design, and crafting a homestead that works FOR you instead of AGAINST you.

19 Jun 2023S12 E12: How to Feed Your Soil a Whole Food Diet00:51:07

As hard as we try to avoid it, modern industrial thinking can easily creep into our homesteads. Take soil health for example. Have you ever walked through the garden store and wondered which of the isolated "ingredients" you should add to your garden to "fix it?" I have! But there's a better way. 

I'm joined by Aaron Elison of Redmond Agriculture in this episode. He helps us dismantle this reductionist mindset so we can take a "whole food" approach to caring for your garden. From Nature's Intelligence to a surprising way to remove toxins from your soil, this episode is full of nuggets!

Today I’m thrilled to be joined by Mike Roberts of The Converse Cowboy. We’re diving deep into mental toughness, battling the resistance, and more in this philosophical episode!
