Friends, this episode could not be more indicative of our personalities. We’re doing a rapid (ish) Q&A with questions from each of us and some of them are deep and meaty and ponderous…and some are about our favorite new snacks. So...a little bit of everything. Plus, you won’t hear him but Emily’s husband was in the next room trying to pretend we weren’t talking about him. So if you’re looking for a good book to read or if you’re looking for profound life advice, we can hook you up in this episode. So give it a listen and check us out on Instagram - @emilywebel and @hspangler, and we’re on Twitter too - @emily_webel and @hollyspangler. And if you’re so inclined, leave us a little iTunes review, because that helps other people find us too.

We went down the worm hole this time: we did a podcast about podcasts. We talked a lot this time about the new face of podcasting...and are podcasts the new blogs? Plus, a new ag podcast network launched this month, where you can find real commercial farmers talking about real agricultural issues. So we cover that too – and we’re speaking about podcasts at the Women in Agriculture conference in the Quad Cities this week, so you’ll want to check that out, too: www.womeninagricultureconference.com. And in this episode, we’re sharing our favorite new podcasts. So give it a listen and check us out on Instagram: @emilywebel and @hspangler, and we’re on Twitter too: @emily_webel and @hollyspangler. And if you’re so inclined, leave us a little itunes review, because that helps other people find us too.

Man, you guys. You remember a few weeks ago when I interviewed Emily about her life? Well. She turned the tables on me this week and the interviewer became the interviewee. Not gonna lie, it was a little scary for me! But she’s a great interviewer, and we talked about everything from the doctor I didn’t become to how grief has shaped my life. And this much I know: it’s good to talk about the real and the hard things in our life, and what it all means as we serve others. But I promise it’s not all that heavy! Haha! So give it a listen...we're talking food, family and farming, just in a little different way this time.

We're taking a deep dive into a subject that's near and dear to both of us: ag advocacy. What's up with the ag advocacy movement these days? Who's blogging and who's not? And who's still building relationships? And the million dollar question: has any of this done any good? And as always, we're talking food, family and farming - give it a listen!

This will forever be known in our minds as the episode when the cows got out and Emily said, "Hey, there's a calf in your front yard!" So if you would, forgive us a slight pause where we had to go deal with that little agricultural situation, and I was reminded of a wise farmer who once observed that corn never jumps a fence. Ha! At any rate, we're talking a lot about harvest today, and why we do the things we do and what our parents have to do with it all. Plus a little on field meals and whether anyone should feel guilty about it (spoiler alert: no guilt). And as always, we're talking food, family and farming - give it a listen!

Oh, friends. Do you ever wish you could just sit and have a casual conversation with your friend and learn more about them? Because we do. So we did! In this episode, Emily sat in the hot seat and answered rapid-fire questions from Holly about her dreams, hopes, aspirations and her NEW JOB. I know. It's huge. And as always, we're talking food, family and farming. Give it a listen!

The farm houses are quiet again (quiet-er, anyway) because the kids are BACK TO SCHOOL! Here's what it all means to these farm mamas, who may or may not have raised a glass. Plus we're sharing our favorite endorsements again. Listen in as we talk food, family and farming this week!

We've taken a little summer hiatus but we're back to re-cap the Illinois State Fair, the general run-down-ness of it all, and to share the quote of the fair: "I think we've had enough character building." Plus, some stories from the flood that you have to hear to believe. So, once again we're talking food, farming and family, AND we've got new endorsements! Listen in!

Ok, friends. We’re calling this episode, “That Which Cannot Be Spoken Of,” with complete sincerity. And a little anxiety. Part of me says I can’t believe we recorded a podcast about this. Another (apparently bigger) part says people need to know they don’t walk alone. If, and perhaps when, it happens to you, too. So while our mantra is still to talk about food, farming and family, we’re definitely diving into new territory here and we hope you'll hang with us!

We're back to talk food, farming and family, and we've got a special episode for you this week: gift ideas for the farm women in your life. Need a gift idea for Mother's Day...and beyond? We've got ya covered with 15 different fabulous gifts.

We're talking food, farming and family, and we're doing it live from the Women in Ag conference. Tiny explainer: we're minus one farm mom and plus one Chicago mom. GMOs and food labels? We went there, too.
