This week Sid talks to one of the biggest and brightest stars in country music – Lainey Wilson. Back in May, he drove up to Nashville and got to have this conversation in person at Lainey’s farmhouse outside of town. The occasion was a Southern Living cover shoot, and Lainey and Sid sat down on a pair of comfortable chairs in her speakeasy-style basement, which is where she writes a lot of her songs. Lainey couldn’t have been more welcoming as a host, even though she’d been touring nonstop for her latest album, Whirlwind . She’s also hosting the CMA Awards in mid-November, and she’s appearing in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel Reminders of Him early next year. But Lainey has clearly not forgotten her small-town roots in Baskin, Louisiana, or the importance of good friends, family, and her faith. She talked a lot about how she stays grounded, how she keeps holding on despite a wild few years in Nashville, and the importance of keeping her people close. She also told some funny stories about her fiance, Devlin Hodges, who goes by Duck, and how she and her family celebrate Thanksgiving.

Is Arancauna a beach that Americans holiday at? We aren't sure, honestly, it's unlikely that we can be bothered to find out. There's gardening and sleep to be had. We are genuinely interested in how egg colour works though, do let us know if you have answers on that. In this episode, Jackie admits that she has joined the 'cluck side' (apologies for the terrible pun). With her 4 new chickens roaming the yard, she and Laura talk through the joy of rainbow eggers, integrating new chickens at a young age, whether rabbits are appropriate weeding tools, and if they are cuddlier than chickens. Jacke talks for slightly too long about the names and breeds of her hens, but that's what we're hear for (sorry again for the puns). Laura is accompanied by her newest squeaky of her brood, which means *bonus adorable newborn noises for inclined listeners*. Laura shares that her girls have submitted to peer pressure, following the example led by her new ISA brown mix - with all hens busting out a bounty of eggs.…
