The Degenerative Ag Podcast

This week we have the opportunity to bring in a special guest who you may recognize from frequent listener e-mails, Devine!  As an avid and active outdoorsman, he may be one of, if not THE most educational guest we've had.  Conservation, tag allocation, and habitat as they relate to farming are a central topic.  Lot's of good stories and memories accompany.

  Another update on Trevor's Bee hole, Andrew is flush with zucchini bread, and Captain Corporate announces his new ballot measure to help hunters.

  This week on the Degenerative Agriculture podcast, the boys celebrate episode 40 a bit late with a game of Edward Forty-Hands and some truly disgusting onion-flavored shooters. The chaos continues as Trevor battles a yellowjacket-infested "Bee hole" with a farm-built powder cannon, and Andrew buys a mystery auction item after an unsuspecting bidding war with his own co-host. We also attempt to solve a local crime involving stolen DeWalt tools because, why not?

Once the dust and booze settle, we get down to brass tacks on crop storage. We cover the gamble of storing grain, the nightmare of finding bugs in your wheat, and one host's costly lesson in holding beans too long. The crew also dives into the surprisingly complex science of potato storage, the art of avoiding a "squishy bottom”, and why you should never, ever make "dishwasher pickles." From farmyard brawls to auction feuds and drunken science, it's a classic episode: messy, honest, and just barely under control—like farming itself.

  Hot off the recorder we got a new episode for you. The Son of Saline Soil is back with a dog bowl dilemma, Larsons Plate has some bee news, The Garlic god has competition, and Captain Corporate doesn't disconnect his Spra Coupe battery. 

  Most Importantly, you the listeners pitched your ideas for the best family hauler for the farm, the one-vehicle-does-all. In the end, does Lee Iococca's master design take the top prize?

Episode 40 starts with a new Spra Coupe (you'll never guess who it doesn't belong to) and a rain delay from wheat harvest… and somehow ends up in 1890.

What would 3/4 degenerates do with 160 free acres under the Homestead Act?

Let’s just say our plans involve questionable crops, oxen, skunks, a two-seater outhouse, and one fertilizer source nobody saw coming.

Oh, and somewhere along the way, french fries become a serious topic of debate.

  Has Captain Corporate finally bought a Spra Coupe?  Why does he hate Sour Cream?  Is it true he has a full yard maintenance crew?

  The main topic of today is rural garbage disposal,  both for personal and farm use.

  And fires, lots and lots of fires

  Tonight could be the most exciting night of the year, leading up to harvest, we hold a fantasy draft for equipment if we had 1,500 acres and no budget.  Back stage trades? Fist fights? There's bound to be some early drama.

  We also catch up on listener questions, berate neighbors for letting their fox loose on someone's chickens, and, most importantly, live auction results as were recording!!!!!

  We apologize for the poor audio quality towards the end, the main recording equipment pooped out, and Lucas excelled at blowing out the back up audio mic.

Happy 4th of July!!!

  There's been plenty of time sat in a sprayer recently, so we decided to tackle some of the hard hitting, and maybe too wild conspiracy theories of agriculture. Crop mobs, fake birds, deer reading your tractor screens? 

  Also, say hello to our new sponsor, Hardhide whiskey.  They were more than accommodating to us, and sent us two different flavors to sample, how does that pan out over the episode? Stay tuned to find out.

  We've got another weather break in, just in time to grab a few beverages, get up to date on events, and complain about the weather.

  Rooster chaos, bees change hands in a truck stop lot, and Trevor drinks Roundup by accident—then accidentally buys a Spra Coupe. Wind's howling, trees are snapping, and we're arguing shelterbelts versus cover crops while eating durian wafers.

  We got a "nice" pause in our planting schedules, due to ridiculous winds blowing soil all over the dang place.  So, as we do, got a break and went over to the watering hole and put together an episode.

  We go through a few listener questions, and have a fun game of Would You Rather?
