The Common Folk crew hits the road and heads to Omaha for the Farmer 2 Farmer gathering — and the mics are rolling. Ben and Andy connect with farmers, innovators, and ag leaders, including Zach Johnson, aka The Millennial Farmer and Charles Baron, the co-founder of the Farmers Business Network.

This live episode captures the energy of the event while exploring the ideas, challenges, and opportunities facing agriculture today. Every side of the AG conversation gets a seat at the table.

Common Folk is a podcast hosted by Ben Evers that brings you straight talk from the heartland. This isn't about theory or ivory towers; it's grounded conversation from everyday, hardworking people who see the world through a practical, blue-collar lens. You'll hear a 'common sense' spin on a wide range of topics that matter to people building real lives, from the trials and triumphs of starting a business to the honest realities of raising kids. The discussions also tackle current events, filtering the noise through a perspective often left out of the mainstream. It’s a show for anyone who appreciates authenticity over pretense, where complex issues are broken down with relatable Midwestern candor. Tune into this podcast for a regular dose of down-to-earth dialogue that feels like a conversation with thoughtful neighbors.
