Low energy chill time with the boys. Thanksgiving discussions abound. Cold end-of-year times at the farm. Sam goes into a surprising amount of detail about his two projects. Can Max be Crypto Jesus? Maybe.

Max walks us through the last few unseasonably warm weeks at the farm. The boys test a special podcast-within-a-podcast concept. Sam shares his race report from his first half-Ironman.

We kinda forgot to podcast through Max’s busiest season so we do a quick whistle-stop tour through the highlights: Max has bonded with a farm hawk, it turns out Max didn’t irreperably screw up the direct seeding he’s in charge of, and working for a larger outfit definitely has some perks (like PTO!). Sam also talks us through his last couple of months, with way too much time focused on triathlon stuff considering how bad he is at it.

A lot can happen in a month. Vegetables grow, cows escape, hail falls, airplanes sit on runways, and projects end. But brotherly love persists.

Sam went on all sorts of adventures — triathlons, super secret Washington DC social clubs, New Zealand — a little bit for everyone. Max has basically turned his farming into a puzzle video game involving intricate irrigation strategies. The boys are both living their best lives, you could say.

Max is out in the fields and doing farmer things now. Planting seeds, moving tarps around, driving tractors — all the classics. Sam just got back from The Ready’s latest company retreat and is getting ready for a long trip to New Zealand. Listen closely for the point where he realizes he’s using the wrong microphone and switches over to the good one. Also, his tummy was jumbly so cut him some slack, okay?

The boys are back! Max, like a human grizzly bear, has emerged from his winter cocoon and is rustling around in pursuit of vegetables. He's moved north, back to the Spurlin native homeland of Michigan, to continue his illustrious farming career. He talks about his new gig, which is actually starting to sound a little bit like Sam's gig.
Sam is still here, too. On his same bullshit, for the most part. We all know Max is the real star of this show, though, so let's stay focused on him.

Welp, it's that time again. Fields of Work calls it quits on another season as Max walks us through the last of his farming year. And this one is extra special because he has decided to move on from his current farming gig in Tennessee and to an as-of-yet new adventure.

Bringing a chill vibe to this one. Sunday morning energy. End of farm season energy. Max had a big frost at the farm, which is, you know, not great for plants. Sam went on his honeymoon and the most recent The Ready retreat. He talks about some strategic shifts that the company is making and what that means for his role. Very cool episode. Very chill.

Max is psyched to be moving into the fall, even if the outdoor temperature doesn't really reflect it. His favorite candle scent is John Steinbeck. I'm not even joking. Sam did his last triathlon of the year and is getting ready to go on his honeymoon (yes, that's a pretty great work update, right?)
