174 Compost Like a Pro - From Stank to Sustainability
01/07/25 • 85 min
Tonight, we’ll be talking about composting, which is probably one of the most important elements of your garden. You may think that you don’t have enough room to do any composting, but I would bet that you’re wrong. See, the bigger the garden, the bigger the compost area you’ll require, but that also works in reverse. Smaller gardens, even potted plants on the patio, need far less composted material. But they “all” need good compost.
Some of you may already be composting... some, not at all. Maybe you’re doing it right... maybe you’re doing it wrong. Some of you may be buying composted materials from the store to use in your garden... not a very self-sustaining practice, but we’ve done it, so I get it.
Let’s see if we can’t figure out this composting thing together. You’ll be surprised just how easy it can be, when done right, and how much better your plants will do, in the long run.
So, grab your pitch forks, shovels, and rakes... cuz we’re heading out to the garden to get stanky.Visit HoneyComb Holler on YouTubeTOPSBunker.comPlease Visit Our Affiliate Links to Find Great Composting Products:

175 Battle of Los Angeles - Apocalyptic Wild Fires in California
Tonight we discuss the wildfires burning across vast areas of Los Angeles, threatening homes, businesses, and lives. The numbers are staggering... at the time of this recording... At least 10 lives have been lost... 153K people have been evacuated... 34K acres have been burnt to the ground between the Palisades and Eaton fires alone... more than 10k buildings are destroyed. And to make things even worse, a brand new fire in the San Fernando Valley has prompted even more evacuation orders.
Beyond the headlines, there’s the real, human impact. The firefighters on the front lines, the families displaced, the first responders, and the volunteers working tirelessly to provide relief.
Houses, vehicles, schools, municipal buildings, businesses, roads and bridges, farmland, infrastructure and communication... all gone in the affected areas. Officials say the damage is at least 8.5 billion dollars so far and that number will most likely double when this disaster is contained.
Tonight, we’re gonna break down what’s happening in California and how we can prepare for wildfires, whether you’re in the direct path of one or not.
We’ll cover the essentials: what you need in your wildfire emergency kit... how to create an evacuation plan... and what kind of protective gear can help you stay safe if you need to leave in a hurry.
As always, Please check the show notes below for valuable info and links.
Let’s get to it.
