I also listen to bbc farming podcast but almost want to slit my wrists after every episode , there also a good Lincolnshire podcast and farmers weekly do one but the straight forward farming podcast is great entertainment.

Yup. But about toy soldiers. Not farming.

Hardcore history. I recently splashed out and bought the whole library of episodes. Especially recommend ghosts of the ostfront about the second world war on the eastern front, absolutely mindblowing and it'll put the russian people/nation into perspective.

I never listened to any agricultural podcast, can't think of the attraction.

Is the Spotify the best for farming related podcasts?

I was listening to the Farmers Guardian podcast (Over the Farm Gate) yesterday, whilst steadily rowing up hay.

They had a Suffolk landowner on there bigging up their environmental ‘natural capital’. Their 880ha was in 65 land parcels, including some meadows where tenant farmers had ‘gone by the wayside’ (land agent speak for evicted?), most of which had at least some hedgerow in the boundaries.
Meanwhile, our place is pretty typical for this area, with 130ha in 50 land parcels (we call them fields) in mixed cropping, almost all of which have full hedgerows on all boundaries and in a landscape interspersed with mixed woodland and water. But no, ‘they’ are lauded as environmental champions FFS!

I shouted at the radio and it made me feel a bit better.

I just use the Apple Podcast App, but I don’t suppose there’s a lot of difference between any of the free ones. Just search for your chosen topic.
