The Delicious Pig | Episode 1

mercredi 14 janvier 2026 • Durée 57:56

Dr. Samuel Shephard talks with Brandon Sheard of Farmstead Meat Smith about raising, killing, and eating animals the right way. Brandon teaches people to slaughter and process pigs on the domestic scale—in the backyard, the old way—and argues that this work helps us develop virtue and understand what it means to be human.

The conversation covers why "doing what you love" is overrated, the structural impossibility of real community in our car-dependent world, and how prioritizing Mass and the sacraments might be the key to restoring authentic Catholic villages. Brandon makes the case that we're all naturally equipped to be "meat smiths"—we just need to activate that latent potential.

Country People Know Best | Episode 5

mercredi 11 mars 2026 • Durée 01:02:07

What does it mean to truly belong to the land — and what do we lose when that connection is severed?

Sebastian Morello, philosopher at St. Mary's University in London and author of Woodland Philosophy: Meditations on Hunting, Hiking and Holiness, joins Dr. Samuel Shephard to explore what it means to be a country person in an age of urban disconnection. Drawing on his Catholic faith, his grandfather's stalking knives, and years of managing the landscape, Sebastian makes the case that country people possess a kind of embodied, irreplaceable knowledge — and that Westminster's constant interference is quietly destroying the very countryside it claims to protect.

Woodland Philosophy is available wherever books are sold.

In this episode of Sustainable Living with Dr. Shephard, we sit down with Thomas van Horn (full-time beekeeper and homesteader) and Jason Craig (dairy farmer and co-author) to explore Catholic homesteading, family-based businesses, and the deep connection between faith, land, and daily life.

Jason discusses dairy farming, pigs, gardens, and raising 8 children in Western North Carolina.
