Ep 210 | HELLO DISCOVERING DISCOs 🕺 This week Natalie and Tara crack open the confusion surrounding egg carton claims… because let’s be honest, what does “pasture raised” or “vegetarian fed” really mean? (Hint: not what you think.) From greenwashed grocery store labels to the myth of hormone-free poultry, the girls break down how to read between the marketing lines—and why doing your own research matters more than ever.

Next, it’s ACM Awards highlights and unpacking the newly announced Yellowstone spinoff featuring Casey Dutton in a cowboy-meets-marshals twist.

They also shed light on a significant development in the dairy industry: Chobani’s $1.2 BILLION investment in U.S. manufacturing and its potential to reshape the future of small dairy farms. Finishing strong with a Farmer Wants a Wife recap. Colton’s indecisiveness, Bailey’s boundary-setting, and predictions for the season finale keep the DISCO discussion going strong.
