We're back, finally! The election ends(ish) and we ponder our place in the outcome, COVID hits one of our own, and we tackle a number of different issues that have left us salty!

We weren't actually planning on recording an episode this week but there's too much going on! Our last podcast has caused some public leaders to issue official statements clarifying positions discussed on the show which we breakdown, we learn that we may be snubbed by Feenstra which sends Aaron into a frenzy, and Wayne gets some unsavory medical news! We did our best to keep it close to an hour! And finally, let ANOTHER chance for free food from Brady's Pub in Sheldon!

As the calendar flips to October, there are quite a few people having bad days. We discuss the bad days had by the Sheldon City Council, a certain well-meaning Hull businessman, half of Aaron's crew, and the near-death of trick-or-treating. Also, Aaron learns from an "insider" about experimental drugs being used to fight COVID and talks about the time he got in trouble with the LAW! Finally, listen to hear how you can get yourself FREE FOOD from our new sponsor Brady's Pub in Sheldon!

Mitch and Aaron try to influence city policy by accusing Wayne of advocating for chicken genocide which compounds Wayne's already bad mood. They guys then discuss the flag issues in the area, teenage rebellion in the age of social media, and finally, try to come to terms with the fact that not EVERYONE likes them!

The boys on the pod deal with the growing Sioux County COVID epidemic, farming futures/failures, the fallout from some "controversial" stances made in episode 15, and Mitch tries to explain just why he looks the way he does! 

After a brief hiatus, the guys return to discuss the JD Scholten interview, single-issue voting, trying to survive living in a camper, and the virtues (or lack thereof) of being an internet sensation!

In our 14th episode we get political (well, MORE political) as we sit down with J.D. Scholten, who is running on the Democratic ticket vying for Iowa's 4th Congressional District Seat held by Steve King. During our chat, we cover the BIG issues: cattlemen vs. meatpackers, renewable fuel standards, spiritual faith, term limits, cargo shorts, and how to throw a curveball! 

We celebrate milestones on this week's podcast! We made it a dozen episodes and still publically recognize each other, Aaron's son gets his first job, and Mitch's wife, Greta, joins the 'cast the set the record straight and to celebrate 12 years of wedded bliss!
