Like a Farmer

🏁 Ag to Asphalt presented by Fresh From Florida is back for the final studio episode of the season as NASCAR Cup Series driver Ross Chastain recaps a wild stretch of racing at Phoenix Raceway and Talladega Superspeedway. Ross breaks down his run-in with Carson Hocevar at Phoenix, Tyler Reddick's big win, and the late-race chaos at Talladega that nearly ended in disaster before Ross battled his way to a fourth-place finish. He also weighs in on NASCAR's controversial double-yellow-line rule, pit road speeding penalties, superspeedway fuel-saving strategy, and what he thinks NASCAR needs to change. Then, in this week's Georgia Boot segment, Ross welcomes a very special guest: Lauren Emling, his longtime PR representative at Trackhouse Racing. Lauren shares her journey through NASCAR, the behind-the-scenes work that keeps the No. 1 team moving, and stories from Ross's biggest career moments. Plus, Ross shares highlights from his visit to Virginia Tech football and looks ahead to Martinsville Speedway as the NASCAR championship battle heats up.

Seven-time PRCA World Champion and bull riding legend Sage Kimzey joins the Like A Farmer Podcast for an incredible conversation about winning six consecutive world titles, the evolution of professional bull riding, and why family ultimately became more important than chasing history. Sage takes us back to growing up on a ranch in Oklahoma, winning his first world championship at just 20 years old, and building one of the most dominant careers in rodeo history. He opens up about the grueling travel schedule, injuries, money, and sacrifices that come with competing at the highest level, and why he stepped away from the PRCA rodeo grind just one championship shy of tying Don Gay's eight-title record. Now competing with the Austin Gamblers, Sage breaks down the rise of PBR Teams, going No. 1 overall in the draft, the differences between PBR and traditional rodeo, and what the future holds for the sport. During Give 'Em the Boot presented by TECOVAS, Sage reveals his Mount Rushmore of bull riders, recalls his unforgettable 94-point ride aboard SweetPro's Bruiser, and shares what being a cowboy truly means to him. Plus, he discusses the importance of mentorship, riding through serious injuries, why he chooses to wear a helmet, raising his two sons, and whether broadcasting could be part of his future. From seven gold buckles to the next chapter of his career, Sage Kimzey proves that being a champion is about more than what happens inside the arena.

Comedian and content creator Danae Hays joins the Like A Farmer Podcast for a hilarious and surprisingly inspiring conversation about Alabama, softball, going viral, Southern culture, and the unconventional road that led her to comedy. Danae takes us from playing softball at the University of Alabama and calling games for the SEC Network to trying careers in real estate, pharmaceutical sales, and even a pyramid scheme before a prank call exploded on TikTok with roughly 27 million views and changed everything. She tells the incredible story of lying to her agent about having stand-up experience, only to discover her very first comedy show would require her to headline for an entire hour and why surviving that night made her realize she'd found what she wanted to do with her life. Danae also talks about growing up listening to Southern storytellers at her dad's Alabama gas station, buying her own 10-acre mini farm, why she believes country culture is cool again, Nashville's growing comedy scene, social media's impact on entertainment, her Mount Rushmore of comedians, Ella Langley, the prank call that nearly got her sued, and what's next as she sets her sights on TV, film, and her Southern Variety Show. Plus, Danae shares a powerful message about not finding her true calling until 30, trusting your purpose, visualization, prayer, and why it's never too late to chase the life you want.
