Ep 241 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara kick off 2026 with viral conspiracies, bucking bulls in Manhattan, and giant potato drops. A fear-mongering reel claims grocery store rice is actually plastic pellets — and people are buying it. The hosts debunk the conspiracy while highlighting a real rice crisis: Louisiana farmer Meryl Kennedy's White House meeting with President Trump about subsidized foreign rice undercutting American growers. Then, it's PBR week in New York City as Madison Square Garden transforms with 750 tons of dirt for three days of professional bull riding sandwiched between Knicks games. Plus, Taylor Sheridan's Landman inspires a TCU land management class, and Apple Girl Kate joins Mike Rowe and Theo Von for a Made-in-USA gift guide special. Finally, Boise rings in 2026 by lowering a 17-foot fiberglass potato — because who needs a ball drop when you can celebrate agriculture? The hosts explore quirky New Year's traditions from chili drops to atomic bombs across America, plus Dutch donut recipes, Tara's bucking bull dreams, and whether Theo Von is shooting his shot with Apple Girl Kate.

Ep 240 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into homemade sugar, surprise Western collabs, celebrity cowboy boot shopping, and what's really in your heavy cream. A viral reel reveals the complex 12-step process of making sugar from sugarcane—and the shocking truth that natural sugar is brown, not white. The hosts debate why we bleach sugar, flour, and rice, then explore an unexpected collaboration between Airstream, Stetson, and Taylor Sheridan's Four Sixes Ranch for a limited-edition Western trailer. While Natalie sees brilliant marketing, Tara argues it's impractical influencer bait for Coachella, not serious campers. The surprises continue with J-Lo spotted shopping for boots at Cowboy Christmas during NFR, leaving the hosts with endless questions and zero answers. They discuss the USDA's new pasture-raised labeling standards for chicken and dive into heavy cream drama—exposing how many brands now contain gums as cost-saving additives. The episode wraps with a kitchen science experiment on making homemade butter, plus announcements about their holiday break and upcoming Florida sugarcane farm content.

Ep 239 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into a Campbell's soup scandal, the CMA Awards crisis, a heartwarming veterans program, and the viral sesame seed discovery that has everyone rethinking their burger buns. A leaked audio recording from a former Campbell's VP calling their food "bleep for poor people" and claiming their chicken comes from a 3D printer goes viral, but the hosts argue the real issue isn't false ingredient claims—it's corporate culture and classism. The CMA Awards hit rock bottom with only 6 million viewers (down from 16 million a decade ago), sparking debate about country music's identity crisis and why they desperately need the Dancing With the Stars Gen Z marketer. On a positive note, the Armed to Farm program is helping veterans transition into sustainable agriculture with an 83% retention rate through hands-on training in everything from aquaponics to beekeeping. Plus, Cheetos launches a "Simply Naked" line without artificial dyes, and a viral video reveals where sesame seeds actually come from—growing in pods that burst open when ripe, which is literally the origin of "open sesame." What We Discovered This Week 🤠 🪩 Campbell's VP scandal and what it reveals about corporate culture 🪩 CMA Awards hit record-low ratings—what went wrong? 🪩 Armed to Farm: Veterans finding purpose in agriculture 🪩 Cheetos goes naked (the snack, not the hosts) 🪩 Sesame seeds: The viral food discovery we didn't know we needed 🪩 Open Sesame is literally about sesame seed pods bursting open CHAPTERS: 00:00 - Intro: Campbell's Mess, CMA Disaster, Veterans & Sesame Seeds 00:59 - Discovery 1: Campbell's VP Scandal & The 3D Printed Chicken Controversy 06:18 - The Food System Culture: Classism & Corporate Profit Over Quality 10:55 - Campbell's Stock Impact & Brand Innovation Opportunities 16:19 - Discovery 2: CMA Awards Hit All-Time Low with 6 Million Viewers 19:49 - Dancing With the Stars Strategy & Why CMAs Need a Gen Z Marketer 24:49 - Morgan Wallen Controversy & Country Music's Identity Crisis 27:16 - Discovery 3: Armed to Farm Program Helps Veterans Find Purpose 36:53 - Disco Debrief: Cheetos Goes Naked & The Maha Connection 40:49 - Discovery 4: The Sesame Seed Surprise—Where Do They Come From? 45:50 - Open Sesame: The Phrase Origin & Where Texas Produces Them 47:48 - Wrap-up and Monday's Dear Discos Interview with Duckworth Wool 🪩 WELCOME TO DISCOVER AG A top-ranked podcast where agriculture meets pop culture.

Ep 238 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into Jeff Bezos' role in the beef industry, the end of a 200-year-old publication, and why your FFA jacket just became a fashion statement. The hosts tackle viral claims about methane-reducing feed additives for cattle, separating Bill Gates' investments from Bezos' initiatives. They discuss the Bovaer controversy in Denmark where farmers are now required to use methane-reducing supplements, and explore the tension between environmental responsibility and farmer autonomy. Plus, the Farmer's Almanac is publishing its final edition after 206 years, FFA jackets have become the hottest vintage fashion item, and the hosts reveal why your Costco pecans are at least a year old. Stick around for a disco debrief on the first documented US death from Alpha-Gal Syndrome (the tick-borne meat allergy), plus a deep dive into the pecan supply chain. Spoiler: the US grows 80% of the world's pecans, but we ship them to Mexico to be shelled, then import them back. The food supply chain is wild, and the hosts break down why "fresh" is complicated.

Ep 237 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara serve up a lighthearted holiday episode packed with farm-to-table realities, football meets farming, Western fashion collabs, and viral hippo content. Celebrity chef Tim Love explains why true farm-to-table dining is almost impossible — from inconsistent supply to the direct-to-consumer "ribeye problem." The hosts break down why local sourcing is so complex and why prices would have to rise by about 30% to make it viable. The Buffalo Bills celebrate National Farmer's Day by partnering with local dairy farmer "Farmer Shin," spotlighting New York's dairy industry. The segment also touches on quarterback Josh Allen's agricultural background, from FFA to his family's cotton and pistachio farms. Abercrombie & Fitch teams up with Kemo Sabe for a Western-inspired line. The hosts discuss whether blending mass-market and luxury works — and how the Yellowstone Effect continues to shape Western culture. A viral clip of a hippo eating a pumpkin during Denmark's Harvest Holiday leads to a conversation on seasonal feeding and closed-loop farming. The show ends with a story of a dairy farmer using colostrum to save a baby giraffe. BUT WAIT — there's more! The Disco Taste Test features a salted maple Dr. Pepper float perfect for Thanksgiving. Natalie spills hers, Tara swaps in Diet Coke, and both agree it's dangerously delicious.

Ep 236 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into the headlines shaping how we think about food's worth, transparency, and trends — from America's broken sense of food value to Japan's farmer-forward labels and even Nara Smith's $38 garlic oil collab. America's "food value problem" takes center stage as the hosts unpack why Americans spend less than 10% of their income on food — among the lowest worldwide — and what that says about how we price nutrition versus convenience. Then they explore Japan's photo-on-pack movement that connects consumers directly to farmers, redefining transparency and trust in the grocery aisle. Next, influencer Nara Smith launches a $38 garlic oil with a luxury twist, sparking questions about marketing buzzwords and the psychology of "premium" food. Finally, they tackle the McBee Dynasty crop-fraud sentencing, and end on an unexpected high note — Italian water buffalo enjoying massages and Mozart while producing world-famous mozzarella.

Ep 235 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into viral food myths, western nostalgia, and the surprising ways agriculture moves around the globe.

They explore the unexpected Gen Z revival of the 1985 western epic Lonesome Dove, dive into Coca-Cola's AI-powered mission to save the orange juice industry from citrus greening disease, and unpack the reality behind viral footage of 75,000 sheep boarding a massive cargo ship. It's a journey through pasteurization science, sulfur-induced bad breath, cowboy culture, and the complex world of live animal export—all with the usual mix of education, entertainment, and a few passion fruit margaritas along the way.

Ep 233 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into the unexpected world of agricultural byproducts, whiskey waste, and the surprising ways innovation is reshaping how we think about feeding cattle and sustainability. First up: Pulp-fed beef is going viral. Texas rancher Nate from Pontius Ranches shared test results showing his cattle fed upcycled citrus pulp have 6x more vitamin B, 2x more vitamin E, and even traceable vitamin C. Then, Jack Daniels is ending its cow feeder program that served 100+ local livestock operations, redirecting spent grains to an anaerobic digester instead — and the Moore County farming community is feeling the impact. Finally, tractor prodigy Justyn Jackson teams up with an NFL quarterback to fuel farmers and advocate for agriculture on a national stage. Plus: Point Reyes ranchers update and a deep dive into dates (the fruit, not the romantic kind). BUT WAIT — there's more! Stick around for discussions on nutrient testing, the economics of feeding byproducts, and why quality matters more than the grass vs. grain debate.

Ep 232 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into viral apple-splitting techniques, controversial rodeo documentaries, farm wellness tourism, and laser fruit labeling technology --- with their usual dose of snark and sincerity. From Apple Girl Kait's viral fruit-splitting powers (spoiler: the hosts can't replicate it) to the realities of 20-year apple farming lifecycles and GMO solutions for browning, the agriculture education is real. Then they dive into Boot Barn's "Hell on Wheels" docuseries featuring bad boy bareback rider Rocker Steiner, European-style agritourism booming in America, and whether luxury farm stays help or hinder consumer understanding of production agriculture. The episode wraps with Australia's innovative laser fruit labeling technology that could eliminate 110 tons of plastic sticker waste annually, plus a heated debrief on Glyphosate Girl's attack on Luke Bryan's Bayer partnership. From terminology debates (herbicide vs. pesticide) to food stylists fuming over etched fruit, it's another week of agriculture meeting pop culture with plenty of contradictions along the way..
