In this episode of Talk Dirt To Me, Logan Hanks and Bobby Lee Hanks go back through the goals we set at the beginning of 2025 and give a brutally honest breakdown of whether we hit them or missed them. From hay production to cattle performance, equipment costs, and what it really takes to keep a farm moving forward, nothing is sugar-coated. From there, we roll straight into our 2026 game plan. We talk about increasing hay output, tightening up cattle health and death loss, cutting waste and equipment expenses, and continuing to scale up production of our homemade sauerkraut at the farm store. These aren\u2019t just goals on paper. They\u2019re the moves that decide whether a family farm grows or disappears. Toward the end of the episode, Bobby Lee also weighs in on the recent Tucker Carlson interview about veterinary medicine, pulling back the curtain on what the public doesn\u2019t see and what those conversations get right and wrong about the realities of animal health, regulations, and modern livestock care. We also highlight this week\u2019s Made in USA product, the Scrusher Boot Brush, a simple but essential tool for anyone who lives in mud, manure, and real work. To everyone who\u2019s been riding with us through 2025, thank you! We hope you and your families have a strong, healthy, and prosperous 2026.
