This week on Unscripted, Tyne Morgan and Clinton Griffiths catch up on major changes behind the scenes at Farm Journal before diving into one of their most wide-ranging conversations yet.

From surviving a multi-week power outage (and living off squirrel and canned goods) to uncovering a haunting Southern mystery, guest Christ Bennett brings stories that are as gripping as they are unexpected. But it’s not all storytelling—this episode tackles serious issues facing agriculture today.

The team breaks down:

• A controversial legal battle where farmers face massive fines without a jury trial
• Growing concerns over government overreach and property rights
• Rising fertilizer prices and lack of competition in ag markets
• The shifting demand for cotton in a world dominated by synthetic fabrics

Plus, a lighter side of life—from prom DJ duties to parenting wins and the realities of raising the next generation.
