This is the blessing of free speach. People will learn how these speakers have changed and the people will not go to their talks.
I am a struggling beginner, and I found this so helpful and encouraging today.
Amazing conversation, thank you both!!
I appreciate these conversations. Thank you and God bless!
I love these podcasts. Everyone I experience causes me to say," I gotta get a farm". Please keep the good news coming. Phil ✝🍇🍉🍎🍅🥑😊
I'm super excited for Murray McMurray homesteading expo in Webster City, IA THIS COMING WEEKEND!!! I hope they do this every year!
I was interested by the misgivings around solar energy. It feels to me like a good alternative to being dependent on the grid. I guess it makes me ask, what don't I know?

It seemed more like a politically influenced opinion rather than a well researched statement.
Thank you for this podcast. I can't help but wonder, if eating bugs and lab grown meat ever becomes the norm, what happens to all the meat animals? Are they put into zoo's, or do they become extinct? How is that "good" for them? (Animal wefare people)

The seedlings in the opening b roll were leggy and horrible lol.
His statements on clean energy were incorrect and made me question his credibility.
