    60: Regenerative Homesteading Anywhere: How To Build a Self-Sustaining Food System Without Acreage

    What does regenerative homesteading actually look like when you don’t have acres of land? In this episode, we break down how to build a regenerative homestead anywhere you live, whether you’re in an apartment, rental, suburban yard, or on acreage. We cover how to build living soil without tilling, cycle nutrients instead of throwing them away, and create food systems that improve year after year. You’ll learn practical ways to work with the land you have using compost, fermented kitchen scraps, mulch, perennials, and intentional garden design. This episode also dives into how animals fit into regenerative homesteading. From rotating chickens through gardens to using goats for brush control and sheep for pasture improvement, we explain how livestock can heal land, build fertility, and reduce labor when managed properly. We also discuss simple, effective water management, including slowing runoff, improving soil water retention, and using rain collection to support gardens naturally. Finally, we cover food preservation methods like canning, fermenting, drying, freezing, and root storage, and why preservation is essential for a truly resilient homestead. This episode is for anyone interested in homesteading, self-sufficiency, regenerative living, food independence, and building systems that last, no matter where you live.

    59: Dragons vs Dinosaurs: Memory, Myth, and the Story We Were Taught to Believe

    In this episode of the Gubba Podcast, we explore one of the most controversial conversations on the internet: dragons versus dinosaurs. This topic is often dismissed or mocked, not because it lacks evidence, but because it challenges long held assumptions about history, creation, and how we interpret the past. We walk through why ancient civilizations across the world recorded dragons with striking consistency, while no ancient culture ever recorded dinosaurs. From Europe and China to Africa and the Americas, dragons appear in historical records, religious texts, and early natural history writings as real, dangerous creatures that existed alongside humans. We examine documented dragon bones in Chinese tradition, known as longgu, and how these physical remains were later reclassified under modern paleontology. We also break down how the word dinosaur was coined in the 1800s, how fossil interpretation depends on reconstruction and assumptions, and why museums often present models that feel like memory rather than interpretation. This episode goes deeper than bones. We discuss how narratives shape what we are allowed to imagine, why questioning dinosaurs triggers such strong reactions, and how the dinosaur framework places death and extinction before humans ever appear. Dragons, by contrast, exist within moral and spiritual frameworks, warnings, and human history itself. Ultimately, this is a conversation about memory versus model, testimony versus reconstruction, and whether human history preserves truths that modern frameworks have tried to relabel out of existence. If you have ever wondered why this conversation feels off limits, this episode will change how you see history. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.

    58: Traditional Remedies That Work: What Our Grandmas Used (And Why Modern Medicine Replaced Them)

    For generations, families relied on traditional remedies to care for everyday health long before prescriptions became the first response. From coughs and sleep issues to digestion and skin care, these natural approaches were not trends. They were practical tools passed down because they worked. In this episode of the Gubba Podcast, we explore why natural remedies gradually disappeared from everyday life, how modern medicine became centralized and pharmaceutical driven, and why so many people are now returning to the knowledge their grandmas once trusted. We talk about the historical shift that labeled home remedies as quackery, the role of mineral depletion and nervous system support, and how simple practices like herbal teas, magnesium, broth, and barrier focused skincare supported families for generations. This episode also dives into traditional skin care, including why tallow was historically used to protect the skin barrier and how simplifying modern routines can dramatically improve dryness and irritation. If you are interested in homesteading, self reliance, traditional living, or reclaiming practical health skills, this episode offers a grounded and educational look at remedies that stood the test of time. Perfect for anyone curious about natural medicine, homesteading skills, traditional health practices, or understanding how we moved from kitchen remedies to prescription first care.
