Welcome back to Beyond the Crops, where farm life meets real life! Join your hosts, Jena Ochsner and Mary Pat Sass, as they celebrate a huge milestone – the 100th episode of the podcast! It's also (nearly) their two-year anniversary, and they're taking a trip down memory lane, reflecting on the journey, thanking their amazing listeners, and looking ahead.

📌 What We Cover in This Episode:

  •  Celebrating 100 Episodes! Jena and Mary Pat can hardly believe they've reached this milestone and express their immense gratitude to their listeners.
  • The Origin Story: How Mary Pat, after years of thinking about it, finally asked Jena (just days after she had baby Walker!) to start a podcast.
  • Favorite Memories & Most Impactful Episodes:
  1. The incredible listener response to Jena's health journey (Episode 50).
  2. Connecting with listeners at farm shows and in-person events.
  3. Heartwarming interviews, including Jena's 96-year-old grandma (Episode 15) and the inspiring Marilyn Bachman (Episode 66).
  4. Deep dives into farm safety (Episodes 22 & 81), succession planning, and parenting in a tech world (Episode 65).
  5. The "Beef: It's What's for Dinner" episode (Episode 42) and Mary Pat's recent dry-aging saga.
  6. Noah Young's "open hand" analogy (Episode 63) that profoundly impacted Jena.
  • Funny Behind-the-Scenes Moments: Spilled coffee, accidental mutes, and mispronunciations (Oregon, anyone?).
  • Hard Moments & Finding Their Voice: Navigating overwhelm and the evolution of the podcast beyond a strict niche to embrace all aspects "Beyond the Crops."
  • Faith in Farming: Discussing episodes where they boldly shared their testimonies and faith (Harrison Butker response & Christmas testimonies).
