Millennial Farmer Makes More Money On Youtube Than Farming || Life Wide Open Podcast 

I honestly think a lot of small businesses make more on RU-vid than on their original business. Build channels being a huge example.

He is genuinely one of the most interesting and down to earth youtuber. Hes just doing his job and showing us. Learn a lot from him.

Wasn’t expecting to see my favorite RU-vid Farmer on today, but I’m not mad about it. Keep it between the rows, boys.

So excited about this! Love the actor who plays Zach Johnson

I've watched Zach since the beginning of his channel, it's never seemed repetitive. Sure, planting, spraying, harvesting happens every year but each year brings new challenges. This year Jim was recovering so he wasn't around during harvest, we missed him but the farm kept going, had to. Bottom line, Zach and his family are my favorite farmers on RU-vid.

Time for Larson farms now to get in on the Pod.

Cboys dirty jobs would be hilarious😂 Also Zach was super smooth and natural on the pod. Good stuff boys!

Always appreciate the support? Zach has for the dairy farmers. Been watching his videos since the early days. Signed a dairy farmer who gets up to milk cows everyday.

You need to get Larson Farms on next.

"You're average Joe-Schmo, that's 60 years old isn't going to get it." Me at 65: "I felt that."

I like his videos because they aren't staged and he has a good sense of humor.

Zack is the OG of RU-vid farmers. Keep doing what you do!

Hey guys, I just found your channel. I've been watching Zach for years. I really enjoy how genuine he comes across in his videos. I was a grain trader as well as an options trader my entire career. Watching Zach's channel is not only very entertaining, but he really does a superb job of educating his subs on how farming works. It's really very interesting, especially for a retired grain trader like me. The entire Johnson Family comes across as very real everyday Americans making the most of life. I have the utmost respect for them and all farmers. Even with all the great new equipment and modern conveniences, farming is a hard business. Anyway, I'm glad I was able to watch this. I look forward to upcoming content from you guys too. Thanks for the great interview with Zach. Cheers from Chicago

This has gotta be one of the best podcasts in my opinion. Felt like four guys that had known each other for years 😂 just a couple neighbors

He is a truly humble RU-vidr I asked him and 8 others about dewalt tools he was the only one to respond and with a honest answer i bought it have had it for 3 years now

Being a 1st generation dairy farmer. I appreciate Zach giving respect to us. Sometimes it's difficult to feel sorry for grain farmers. Dairy farming isn't just milking cows. It's also crop farming. Currently milk price is very low. Mn and wi have lost many dairies in last 4yrs. Great podcast.

As a fellow Minnesotan from the central part of the state, i love both of your channels, and hope to see more of these collabs with each other, such as Zach and Onyx joining you guys on atvs and snowmobiles, and you guys helping him out on the farm. Keep on keeping on Zach and the Cboys 🤙

Zach not having his headset plugged in is the cherry on top of this lol fantastic podcast

Wow guys, you really outdid yourself with this one. I love both of your guises channels the Wide Open podcast the Cboys and the Millennial Farmer in this was by far my favorite podcast. I tune in every Thursday and Tuesday when a podcast or a video is dropped and you guys have done amazing thank you for the entertainment .

I’ve been waiting for this pod for years boys love it!

The collab I’ve waited for. Great pods fellas

That was honestly just a great pod. A little different from the normal content but it was just super smooth! Been watching both the channels since the beginning and I really appreciate you guys hard work!💪

I farm and I love watching the youtube farmers. I like seeing how other people in other places do things different

Putting in my pre-order for that Bob Ross shirt 💳

I’ve been following him for years!!!! So excited for this.

That ending was great!! Can't believe he went the whole podcast like that. I look forward to a Cboys go farming video.

I never thought id see our boy zach and the cboys together

Watching from Edinburgh Scotland. Pity Onyx was not at the main desk for this podcast.😊 Thanks to the RU-vid Algorithm for finding this podcast.😊

My dad and I who are farmers always will watch the newest millennial farmer video love watching them

I’ve been watching millennial farmers videos since the beginning always enjoy when a new one comes out

Thanks guys!!! Helps me through the Tuesday!

this is my first bobcast made by you that I have listened (watched) and I like it, keep it up. I even liked it in Finland

Both are great channels I follow both keep up the good work men

This was 100% the best podcast ever next is grant hilbert and Larson farms

I was hurtin last week for a podcast, thanks guys keep up the great work

Well this was a treat! I watch Zack all the time on his videos. Very entertaining. For a camera I heard that the DJI OSMO is a good one and not too expensive alternative to a go pro. It's going to be my next one if my Gopro Session dies.

The RU-vidr he was talking about is “the squad” i used to watch him all the time you guys should get him on the pod!

I have watched Zach since the beginning, and he was my very first sub. He just reminds me of all my friends and the type of people I prefer to be around. Larsons, Brian Brown, Ivers, Farmer Johnson, Sonne farms, and Cole. I grew up and still live in farm country and both sides of my family are farmers.

I love being a farmer and seeing a farmer that I love to watch and of course love to watch you guys. If there is a possibility i think you guys should also try to get Larson Farms on the podcast.

I met Zach at the farm progress show in Decatur il this past fall and he was a funny respectful nice guy and love his videos

My favorite Zach clip Him chasing a mouse Zach said, come here, little guy, I just want to pet you, WITH A SHOVEL! "Splat."

Get Larson farms on here next

It's fun seeing farms still running. So much of American Agriculture has been strangled by raising costs, especially machinery. It's awesome that youtube is helping people run farms that wouldn't be financially sound otherwise.

Would definitely like to see him on more he was a good touch to today's pod

I never watch any of the podcasts, just the main channel but I seen zack. i clicked so fast.

The only thing I’m jealous of the millennial farmer is the snap. That would be pretty nice some days on the farm 😂. Keep up the awesome vids Zack

Mav is also from Minnesota, if you like overlanding, fishing, camping, or just adventuring, I highly suggest checking out his channel.

holy shit. Zach @millenialFarmer waiting until they've wrapped up the podcast and then subtly say "what are the headset's for if there's no audio?" was absolutely hysterical.

By far best podcast yet 🤙🏼

Being from MN, this is my favorite podcast so far

Thoroughly enjoyed this video/podcast from a fellow farmer/youtuber!!

Been waiting extremely long for this, definitely should get the boys into a farming crew for zach

Love Zach and his family

YES YES YES! This is exactly what I needed!

Can’t believe the tube pulls more $ than his farm. He’s not small…. He’s also not big. I’m happy he shared that.

I watch Zach and Larson farms because I’m not a farmer and I think I would enjoy doing it so it’s the next best thing watching a farm working. I do heavy construction on bridges and highways so watching these guys gives me a break and I can learn a little along the way

This is great content! Bunch of awesome Minnesota guys making Minnesota proud. And Ben since you got your motorcycle license are you riding on the highways this year? Hope so man!

Guys this is great. Huge fan of MF, and now y’all peel back the layers of Zach’s journey. Great stuff!

I am so happy to see this video !!!!!!!

As a farmer myself , i love everything that Zack those...

We need him on the podcast more often !!!

Whatta good pod boys. Perfectly executed!

Seriously , Who doesn’t want to drive a combine or the planters . We almost feel like we are there with you guys. Thanks

This is a really good podcast. First time listener, but I really liked it. Watching from little Denmark.

Chet Larson from Larson Farms is also a youtuber from Minnesota

I love listening to these while I’m at work

Good podcast gentlemen, keep up the good work. :)

Best one yet!

I’m loving the pod here. One of my more watched channels. And the racing. But I have made comments on you tube because I’ve already experienced the situation. Being a mechanic in a farm implement dealership while in high school, driving trucks and farm and ranch born I just try to share a truck or tip. But I’ve seen so many people jump at that or even like your farm channel and they couldn’t diagnose a tooth ache.

Great episode! Keep it up boys

Love to hear a real farmer being honest about his revenue from socials💪. Hate when people with 5 cows and 50 ducks calls himself a farmer. Because without youtube it could never work. Just be honest. No names gold s f.

Larson farm are a big RU-vid channel in Minnesota

So maybe what you tubers such as yourselves could do is have like an event were people could come to your farm or to your shop on a specific day to see you guys and see your shop or farms that gives them the opportunity to satisfy their curiosity in a controlled setting that makes everyone more comfortable.

Zach is my favorite RU-vid farmer

Love the dogs interaction, Zach. And, you sure do have to push a lot of buttons to load a truck….

Love this one, always wanted to do something with farming!

watch both you guys what a crazy unexpected collab lmao

You need to get Larson farms on👍

Can’t wait to watch this all my favorite Minnesotans Just finished it and boy was that a banger nice job boys keep up the great work

love both channels watch every video.

There are a ton of Counterstrike/CoD fans that went into the Military, Gen X mostly, some Millennials, but after that, the military is finding a lot of people that either have factors that disqualify them, or their PT is bad and the recruits are experiencing stress fractures due to leading more sedentary lifestyles. As for the question, you asked Zach about Farms folding. My Uncle and two cousins were farming approximately between 16,000-20,000 Acres (some owned, some rented with crop share.) The older cousin was diagnosed with Cancer in his Hip which was successfully treated, but came back with a vengeance about 3 or 4 years later which punched his ticket unfortunately. My Uncle and younger Cousin had some difficulties with the Equipment and Land Payments which ended in them downsizing Equipment and Land (they also ran a Saw Mill/Logging operation where they made dimensional Lumber, or hauled to the nearby Pulp and Paper Mill.) The younger cousin got remarried this past August and while doing an annual memorial quad ride for his older brother, him and his wife had an accident after the ride where he hit an approach he passed from his injuries and his wife was airlifted to the hospital in critical condition and was in a coma for a few days. She didn't know he had passed yet when she woke up. I feel really bad for my Uncle, my cousins wife, my cousins son, and my other cousin that went looking for them when they didn't show up. It took them a couple hrs to find, and he is traumatized. My Uncle lost his Wife(Lorraine Heidel 1955-2013) to a stroke, oldest son to cancer(Jason Heidel 1978-2016), and youngest son(Jody Heidel 1983-2023) to an accident all within a decade. If you google their names with North Battleford, SK, their write-ups are easy to find. I just hope my Uncle can find meaning again teaching his Grandsons about Farming, I can't even imagine.

Millennial farmer is the best, bro I watch all of his videos

Being a small 5th generation crop farmer with 4,000 acres this was amazing podcast

Best podcast yet boys

I was so excited to final see this podcast

My two favorite RU-vidrs

A big deal for me here in oklahona is I hate that it's cold but no snow, no point in going outside. If there's snow at least there is a reason for it to be cold

Great pod with zach 👍

Larson farms next

Life Wide Open Ranch has a nice ring to it eh boys, coming sooner than you think

I can't believe that I can watch my two favorite RU-vid's in one

Lol. That ending was funny.

Best Podcast Episode ever

If you see this headline and you have a long drive. Then put this episode on and the first 90 min go fast. Love that it is honest.

I’m watching this video with my feet up in my tractor doing some spring tillage in southeast Missouri.

Awesome video! Watching from Zimmerman.

Epic cast boys!

MAV is from Minnesota too another awesome youtuber!!

Been waiting for this since the podcast started!

He is great. Great channel.
