Farmers Say the Funniest Things: Listener Comments of 2024
We kick things off with a laugh, featuring comments like “He was born with a 700 credit score and 2 payments left on a 2002 F250” from Just a Jackson Thing and “Lmfao he really just dissed all the parents who give their children iPads” about Tony Reed and Jackson. These witty takes remind us why we love our audience’s sense of humor.
Shifting gears, we explore the wisdom shared in farming conversations, like one listener’s advice about getting married as a farmer: “You either marry your high school sweetheart, wait for a divorce, or hope a new teacher or nurse moves to town.” Or the hard-hitting reality of crop insurance debates: “In what world do farmers have 100% protection?”
Some comments touch on personal farming challenges, like one listener sharing a scary incident with a sweep auger, and others highlight the importance of mental breaks, such as coffee groups: “It’s a mental break and social time for farmers who usually work alone.”
We wrap things up with insights from episodes like Unlock Farm Success, where listeners appreciated practical advice like using QR codes in equipment, and a memorable roast from Farm Life and Laughs with Oh Sheep Shit, dubbed “the most unhinged episode I’ve watched.”
