  • The Little Red Barn Podcast Ep. 146: Houin Beef!
    Jul 6 2026
    This week the guys dive into the June 30 USDA reports on Planted Acreage and Quarterly Grain Stocks. The report was not really all that noteworthy, except that Charlie had to eat come crow during the podcast. How did the heat impact local crops this past week, and what about moisture from here? But perhaps the biggest outcome of this week's podcast is Ryan's new purpose in life: getting cattle integrated into the Houin farmstead! Make sure you get on to the Little Red Barn Podcast Facebook page to vote on which cattle breed should be the backbone of the newly minted "Houin Beef" operation!

  • The Little Red Barn Ep. 144: On the Road Again
    Jun 23 2026
    The Red Barn Road Show is back again this week...but this time because Ryan is trying to catch a little R&R up in the Michigan UP. This week we talk the over-hyping of weather and how that is getting old, the mother of all farm bankruptcies, and the upcoming USDA June 30th reports. That discussion brings a bit of surprise, as Charlie's thoughts would be wildly bullish for the market. Buckle up!
