Two Tools, No Clue – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This week we declare our opinions that nobody asked us for, as Anna covers episodes 1-3 of This is a Gardening Show, Zach Galifianakis' new special on Netflix! We highly recommend it, go check it out. Jeidan will be bestowing his commentary of episodes 4-6 upon us in the near future, so keep your eyes and ears peeled for that. And will the future be agrarian? We have NO clue (but we hope so)!

Book Mentioned: Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver

In our longest episode yet, Jeidan spares no detail about the spicy history and tales of spices! More specifically, Cinnamon, Cloves, Peppercorn, and Nutmeg. How they're grown, how they're harvested, and all the wars and battles fought because of them. And where did all the flying serpents come from? We have NO clue!

P.S. Edmond Albius was the 14 year old slave in Madagascar who figured out how to pollinate the vanilla bean without the native fly that did so in Mexico.

Today, we share the spicy details of two different rabbit scandals: The Peacebunny Foundation, and the Attack of the Killer Swamp Rabbit! The latter speaks for itself, but the story of Peacebunny Foundation captures the essence of 'The Dark Knight's' quote, "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain." And why are rabbits attacking the president?! We have NO clue!

Forgive us as we time travel back to January, where snow is still falling, and Anna is keeping the kitties warm. Don't worry, the Christmas decorations and tree are finally gone! This week we HOP into how to breed meat rabbits on your homestead. Anna shares her experience with rabbits that would make Victorian men very proud, while Jey acts like he's not horrified the whole time. And why are rabbits and deer the same thing? We have NO clue!

In minisode 3, Jeidan recounts the incredible life of another unstoppable woman: Mahala Ashley Dickerson. Was she a badass civil rights activist? Hell yeah! Was she the first black woman to be admitted to the bar in Alabama? Damn straight! Did she get married, give birth to triplets, and get divorced all in a single year? Absolutely! How did she do it all? We have NO clue!

Episode 3 is JAM-packed with the sticky history of Jams, Jellies, and Marmalade! Jeidan blows Anna's mind by informing her that Johnny Appleseed was in fact a real man, and they discuss how eating two tablespoons of jam is basically a royal coronation. And how is Napolean Bonaparte involved? We have no clue!

Minisode 2 is afoot, like the tip-tapping feet of 16 tiny ducklings. We're reading homestead-ish Reddit stories like it's nobody's business, because it's definitely not ours! And we're not saying Anna and Hank the Bank Cat are the same person, we're just saying we've never seen them in the same room together.

Episode 2 is upon us, and this week we're exploring cottage food laws across the US! We get into their history, variations, and how they empower small entrepreneurs to sell homemade, non-hazardous foods... Unless you're a Delawarean, that is!

In our very first Minisode, Jeidan tells us about the incredible life of Maggie Walz. Is there anything this woman couldn't do?! From opening her own currency exchange business to creating a whole thriving community on an island, this woman made homesteading look easy!
