Talk Dirt to Me

In this episode of Talk Dirt To Me, we kick things off with a recap of the movies we watched over Memorial Day weekend before diving into the relentless rain that just won't quit, and how it's slamming planting progress across the U.S. We break down the nationwide planting report, discuss how severely behind farmers are this season, and ask the big question: why aren't the markets reacting? With major ag regions underwater or still untouched, you'd think we'd see a spike but so far, it's crickets. We also dig into the potential end date for the Mexican beef import shutdown due to the screwworm outbreak and what it could mean moving forward. And don't miss our Made in America spotlight, this week we're fired up about Tacticalories, makers of the bold Helldiver Hot Sauce that'll torch your taste buds in the best way possible.

In this episode of Talk Dirt To Me, we break down the latest hot-button agriculture news impacting rural America: U.S. suspends livestock imports from Mexico due to a dangerous screwworm outbreak—what it means for ranchers and food safety. U.S.-UK trade deal opens new doors for American ag exports—is this a real win or just smoke and mirrors? USDA layoffs hit hard, with ripple effects across ag research and conservation programs—we dig into what's really at stake. Point Reyes ranchers fight back against federal land use changes—could this become a national showdown over private land rights? Tennessee's Farmland Preservation Act is now law—we explain what it does, who it helps, and why it matters for family farms. Then we lighten the mood by asking the hard-hitting question: Do real men use eye cream? We roast guys with skincare routines longer than a John Deere maintenance manual and debate the tragic rise of shaved chests in modern manhood. Plus, we give our unfiltered take on the finale of 1923—did it live up to the hype or leave us cussing at the screen?

In this hard-hitting episode of Talk Dirt To Me, we dive into one of the most controversial topics in rural America today—should farmers ever sell their land? We tackle listener questions before getting into the gritty details of land value, the long-term cost of selling for development or solar farms, and whether “progress” is really worth the price. Is cashing out a smart move or selling out your legacy? Is there a difference between a housing subdivision and solar panels blanketing your fields? We don't hold back as we break down the cultural, financial, and generational implications. Plus, our Made in America Spotlight is on Liquid Death.

Then we tackle the bombshell news that Bayer may drop Roundup if the government doesn't grant them litigation protection. Could this shake the entire ag industry? We explore the real-world ramifications, whether Roundup truly causes cancer, and what farmers could be forced to use instead.

In this episode of Talk Dirt to Me, we're tackling some burning listener questions. Which head catch is better—C&B or Priefert? We break down the pros and cons of each. Then, we dive into whether starting up in alfalfa is a viable way to make a living in today's market.

In this episode of Talk Dirt to Me, we tackle one of the biggest problems in agriculture today—division amongst farmers/ranchers. Whether you're running the latest high-tech machinery, running cattle, or sticking with antique equipment, every farmer/rancher plays a crucial role in keeping American agriculture alive. Yet too often, instead of working together, farmers turn against one another, losing sight of the bigger picture. We discuss why unity is more important than ever and how social media has only fueled this divide, creating a space where arguments replace real conversations. Without face-to-face interaction, it's easy to tear each other down instead of standing strong against the real threats facing the industry. We also take on the elitism among some who run antique equipment, addressing the idea that newer technology somehow makes farmers less legitimate. On top of that, we break down a major development in the agricultural world—one of the Big 4 meat packers is making a move into the egg industry, and egg prices are already on the rise. What does this mean for independent producers, and what should farmers be watching for? Finally, in our Made in America segment, we highlight The Zimmer Doctrine, an action-packed thriller written by C. G. Cooper and narrated by Logan, now available on Audible. Tune in for an honest conversation about the issues shaping agriculture today, and be sure to subscribe and share to support independent farming.

We are joined today by our great friend and return guest William Lea. William has studied agriculture for most of his life even earning a masters in it. He ran his own farming operation, taught Ag in schools, and now sells crop insurance. Needless to say he's got experience in the field, and we take a hard look at the year 2024 and whats to come. Commodity prices are awful, and costs are still high. Yields will hopefully be good but regardless this year is going to be bad for some. We discuss the stresses, how some are in denial, why the markets are so bad (China, election year, oversupply), is it worth it, and more. We dont leave you with all doom and gloom though. We end it by talking about ways to come out of this alive as well as the benefits of surviving years like this!  Agzaga is the official sponsor of Talk Dirt to Me!

Listener questions! We had several emails we had somehow missed... sorry, as well as several new ones! We dive into those today on the show and cover some really interesting topics. Do farmers value their time, and how much do they make an hour? Starting a barebones cattle operation, stockers or cow/calf operation? Why are farmers so negative? Lots of ground covered in this episode as usual. We hope you enjoy the show!  Agzaga is the official sponsor of Talk Dirt to Me! It is the ultimate online farm store. American owned and operated.

Logan and Bobby Lee dissect the idea of is it currently the best or easiest time ever to get involved in agriculture? Most would say no, but they share several ways you can get into it by taking a different path. They urge folks to think outside the box. That new John Deere 8r400 is cool but it costs a fortune... unfortunately cool doesn't pay the bills. Consider other avenues besides row crop. When margins are thin it pays to be creative.

Well well well... John Deere returns to the hot seat on the episode. They seem to be completely out of touch with the majority of their customer base. We just thought tractor supply was bad. John Deere seems to have taken woke to another level with their "Genderbread Man," a nearly perfect HRC score, sponsoring a pride event for children, and much more. We also share how Tennessee is one of the better states to make and sell food in! We hope you enjoy this episode! Agzaga is the official sponsor of Talk Dirt to Me!

Logan and Bobby Lee discuss the latest fiasco with Tractor Supply and their very poor choices regarding political fronts. What were they doing, and how did they try to correct course? Should we give them another chance? Also, they talk about the recent tractorcade here in Tennessee. The protestors/farmers successfully stopped the development of 1400 acres of land as they see it already very productive from a farming standpoint. Is it right to block things like this or is it a slippery slope? Tune in to find out!  Agzaga is the official sponsor of Talk Dirt to Me! It is the ultimate online farm store.

Logan and Bobby Lee bust open a couple topics this episode. First they address John Deere's Chief Tractor Officer selection.
