This week Nate and Megan are keeping it real and lighthearted with a conversation about one of Nate’s favorite spring rituals — getting outside and digging in the dirt. Nate spent the weekend weeding, mulching, and planting marigolds, and apparently loved every second of it. Megan? Not so much of a gardener, but she’s a great sport about it.They swap childhood stories — Megan’s backyard forest with a three-tiered sandbox where turtles laid eggs, Nate’s grandfather who spent his entire retirement doing free landscaping for widows in his neighborhood — and get into the surprising ways that being outside and working with the earth just makes you feel better. There’s some real talk about earthing/grounding, the workout you don’t realize you’re getting, and why Nate is now in a friendly rivalry with the neighborhood lawn champion.They also revisit their absolutely disastrous vegetable garden attempt from last year (one tomato, one pepper, one borrowed cucumber — okay, it was a celery), dream about a future organic garden out west, debate lavender seeds, and wonder aloud what on earth kohlrabi actually is.It’s a fun, unscripted one — the kind of episode that feels like sitting on a porch with your friends on a warm May afternoon.In this episode:•Why getting your hands in the dirt might actually be good for your nervous system•The surprising physical workout of yard work•Nate’s grandfather and his legacy of free neighborhood landscaping•Grandma Luella, a farm in Hayfield, and Megan’s one-year Colorado garden glory•The Great Tomato Disaster of last year•Homemade weed killer (vinegar + salt + water) and keeping it pet-safe for Spike•Kohlrabi: what even is it?•Dreams of a future out west with a little organic gardenConnect with us: Have gardening tips for Nate?

    Wisconsin & the Dry Trend: What the Numbers Say About America’s Shifting Relationship with Alcohol

    Send us Fan MailNate dives deep into the statistics of a new survey about alcohol use by state. He specifically focuses on one state he used to live in and the softening of a hard partying reputation.Nate’s flying solo this week — and he’s geeking out on stats (no surprise there). A new 2025 study by Trace One looked at alcohol consumption trends across all 50 states, and the results are fascinating — especially for one state near and dear to Nate’s heart.In this episode, Nate breaks down which states saw the biggest declines in alcohol use from their peak years, including:•Massachusetts — down 13%+ since 2013•Arizona — down nearly 13% since 2005•Maryland — down 11% since 2015•Wisconsin — down nearly 11% since 2005•Connecticut — down 10%+ since 2018Having lived in three of those states, Nate digs into why a place like Wisconsin — famous for its bar culture, German heritage, brandy traditions, and brutal winters — is seeing such a meaningful shift. Is it younger generations opting out? Health awareness? The rising cost of alcohol? Or something else entirely?This one’s less about preaching and more about pattern recognition. Tune in and see what you think.📊 Study referenced: Trace One Alcohol Consumption by StateSupport the show

    Mom, Dad… Did You Know? Three Generations of Drinking & My Dry Life

What started as a casual interview turned into a three-generation look at alcohol, family patterns, and what sobriety actually looks like from the outside.Her mom opens up about growing up with an alcoholic father who stayed sober for six years — until one suggestion of peppermint schnapps changed everything. Her dad shares what it was like losing his father at age three, growing up in a house where wine with the mailman was just… normal. And both of them admit they had no idea how much Megan was really drinking until they listened to the podcast.There’s a lot of love in this episode, some real honesty about drunk driving (a different era), mommy wine culture, and what it means to watch your daughter become — as her mom puts it — “very powerful over her life.”Her dad didn’t really want to be on the podcast. He showed up anyway.

Nate opens up about a time earlier in his life when his Labrador Abby quite literally got him out of bed every morning during a dark season — and how that gift of routine and responsibility was everything.They also talk about:∙Why pets force you into exercise (hello, dog park laps)∙How animals can support kids, elderly folks, and everyone in between∙The case for rescuing over buying∙Tips for “test driving” pet ownership before committing∙Why having pets might even help you stay soberWhether you’re a lifelong animal lover or pet-curious, this one will leave you wanting to go hug your dog.

    The Mind Is a Liar: How to Question Your Thoughts Before They Take Root

    Send us Fan MailWhat if most of your thoughts aren’t actually true?In this cozy Sunday morning conversation, Megan and Nate settle in with their coffee to unpack one of the most powerful ideas they’ve encountered lately: your thoughts are seeds — and you get to choose whether you’re planting flowers or weeds.Inspired by a Kabbalah-based podcast and the science of the mind, they explore why we think 60,000–80,000 thoughts a day (and most of them are recycled and flat-out false), how to pause a negative thought before it becomes a belief, and what equanimity — one of Megan’s new favorite words — actually means for everyday life.They also get real and a little unfiltered: Nate admits he’s been avoiding his firefighter homework all week, Megan nearly gets hit by two cars on a Friday night walk, and both of them practice live thought processing in real time. (It goes about as well as you’d expect.)Whether you’re sober-curious, faith-rooted, or just trying to stop spiraling over the driver who cut you off — this episode is a gentle reminder that you are not your thoughts, joy is your birthright, and suffering is optional.Topics covered:Thought awareness, Kabbalah philosophy, nervous system regulation, sober living, equanimity, faith and joy, procrastination, mindfulnessWelcome to The Dry Life- Alcohol -Free Lifestyle, Marriage Growth In Sobriety, the podcast where one real couple gets honest about sobriety, personal growth, and everything in between.
