Ever wonder what it's like to go from city streets to country roads? Our guest this week, Life of Will , knows that journey well! Originally from Philadelphia, Will now calls Nebraska home--and he's got stories for days about trucking pigs through the Midwest, adjusting to rural life, trying Chilli paired with cinnamon rolls for the first time, learning what Runza is and why you HAVE to get their ranch dressing with every order, and everything else in between. It's a genuine, funny, and eye-opening look at starting over in a whole new place. And what better place is there to do that in than "The Good Life!"

Jacket and I both learned a lot, laughed a lot, and dropped our jaws at his stories A LOT! This was so much fun! 

Give him a follow on social media and listen here now!

🚨 This week’s guest brings us a wild story straight out of Albion, Nebraska! We sat down with Dallas Choat, who survived one of the most bizarre farm accidents you’ll ever hear about. His last thought before blacking out (the first time) was: “So this is how I die.” 😳

But Dallas didn’t just survive—he came back stronger. He’s also the owner of DC Seed and Chemical, LLC, and he gave us a behind-the-scenes look at the highs and lows of running his own business.

Trust us, you don’t want to miss this one. 🎙️🔥
