Tweetable Quotes

“Before I actually started teaching, I really wanted to do this micro thing and travel around and actually learn from farmers and ranchers and see what they're actually doing on a farm.”

“It's weird marketing a podcast because you want to market it everywhere, but everybody's listening on podcasts. So you've got to have your marketing on podcasts and guest on other podcasts, be on other podcasts and all that good stuff.”

“I think podcasts are awesome. We're a little bit biased here.”

“They're really shaking up the whole distribution model, the whole food supply chain, which I think is awesome, because when they do that, not only does the consumer get what I think is a better product, a more local product, a fresher product, the farmer is also getting a little bit more money, which I think is huge.”
