Something Feral
A podcast for the wild ones—the boundary-pushers, land lovers, and farmers who have no idea what they're doing. We talk farming, home, marriage, and making a life that doesn’t play by the rules.
Episodes
This week on the farm, we’re talking about something we've been holding close to our chest — our milk cow, Rose, is pregnant again!
In this episode, we reflect on what it means to witness animal fertility up close, to participate in the rhythms of reproduction, and to prepare for her second calf. From breeding choices, to bovine mood swings. to the soft hope of birth, this is a story of waiting, tending, and trusting the cycles we l...
Our cat got bit by a rattlesnake—and survived. This experience reminded us of how we first fell in love - in a bizarre and synchronistic way - and we want to tell you about it.

What happens when a couple of idealistic farm wives take on their first chicken culling? In this episode, we talk blood, feathers, gallbladders, and the surprisingly cathartic process of killing our first birds. It’s a story about facing what we eat, stepping into uncomfortable traditions, and figuring out how to hold a knife and your values at the same time.
What happens when two people love each other deeply—but see the world through very different eyes? In this episode, we talk about the beauty, friction, and reality of building a farm, a marriage, and a vision with someone who doesn’t always agree with you.

We finally moved into the dream—only to realize it came with more wire than we knew what to do with, dead rats in the walls, and a to-do list that might outlive us. In this episode, we talk about what it’s really like stepping into your homestead when it's more fixer-upper than fairytale.

We didn’t exactly take the straight path to our homestead. Try North Carolina, Florida, an unincorporated community in southern New Mexico, three failed offers, a whole lot of second-guessing, and just enough hope and vision to keep going. In this episode, we spill the story of how we finally landed in the mud-covered, soul-stretching place we now call home. It wasn’t fast, it wasn’t easy, but damn—it was worth it.
