The Case Place Joins MSB – Top Gear at 50% Off

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

And they are selling them at 50 to 80 percent off retail. Here’s why that matters. Most of this inventory comes … Continue reading →

Today we are joined by Stephen Brass, a fourth generation farmer from northern Illinois who walked away from the conventional grain model to build a regenerative beef operation. Growing up in the Corn Belt meant a steady diet of synthetic fertilizers and heavy tillage. These inputs maintained a status quo while the topsoil literally washed away. For Stephen, the turning point was realizing that the land was not being improved, only managed through chemical dependence. He eventually traded the plow for perennial pastures, transitioning his family acreage into a biological powerhouse fueled by grazing rather than grain. The shift required … Continue reading →

The typical story about disease and vegetables is something like this from the all natural crowd…. Just use compost and good organic fertility, build good soil and it won’t be a problem. Yea, um, about that, look good soil, good fertility and abundant soil life and minerals go a long way to healthy plants, but they don’t eliminate all diseases.  They also take time to develop in your garden soil.  Some years my beans develop a fungus referred to as rust.  Why?  It is typical when it is wetter then normal.  In those years the same beds are growing jalapenos … Continue reading →

Everyone is looking for the ‘Killer App’ for AI. They want the one plugin or the one prompt that changes everything.  They’re looking in the wrong place. AI is a mirror, it is a leverage tool, it’s a management flight simulator and a leadership training program all in one.
