Episode #225 - Old Fashioned On Purpose

A big thanks to Jill Winger for having me as a guest on her podcast, “Old Fashioned on Purpose.” 

Jill is a modern-day homesteader and mentor to aspiring homesteaders. Her podcast digs into topics like breaking away from modern consumerism, growing your own food, and becoming reacquainted with the lost art of self-sufficiency. As a homesteader, Jill knows first-hand how important cattle are to human health and the health of the land. She recently invited me to be a guest on her show to talk about Sacred Cow. During our conversation, we get into:

• What’s driving the growing sentiment against meat

• Global policies against beef

• Carbon tunnel vision

• The role of cows in the carbon cycle

• Cows and small town America

• The problem with “less meat, better meat”

• Why the “red meat is bad for you” argument is flawed

• What can you do?

If you loved this conversation, then be sure to check out Jill’s work on The Prairie Homestead.  She empowers people with the tools and knowledge to become less reliant on big box stores and learn how to homestead. And it’s not just for country dwellers. Jill has tips for people with only a window sill and a dream!
