We took Beyond the Spotlight out to a wheat field during harvest to film one of our most unique podcast episodes yet. With combines running in the background, we interviewed Jack Heideman about farming life, small-town stories, and growing up around agriculture. We also played farm-themed games and tried to guess how many everyday products are made from wheat. Big thanks to Hasbargen Farms for letting us film right in the middle of harvest.

If you love farming, agriculture, small-town living, or unique podcast locations, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
