    Jason Cox: Rural urbanism and firetrucks – #35

    Jason Cox of the Monroe Companies joins Geoff to discuss his work revitalizing downtown Graham, NC through historic rehabs and infill projects. They explore the outsized influence of fire departments and oversized apparatus on street design, zoning, and urban form—contrasting U.S. practices with more human-scaled European cities—along with Jason’s self-described identity as a “rural urbanist” who splits time between a small hobby farm and vibrant walkable places. The conversation also covers how building codes and institutional private equity tilt the system toward large-scale development, the need for honest conversations on topics like data centers, and North Carolina’s pragmatic approach to economic development.

    Willy Denner: Intro to Georgism – #34

    Willy Denner of Little Seed Gardens introduces Geoff to Georgism, the concept of the Land Value Tax, how it differs from conventional property taxes, the moral argument in favor of it, and the ameliorative impact it could have on our agricultural lands, rural areas, and urban environments. Little Seed Gardens is a hundred acre family farm near Chatham, NY started by Willy and his wife Claudia Kenny in 1995. Shownotes on the Yeoman website.

    Grant Broggi: Strength & Service – #32

    Grant Broggi, founder of The Strength Co., joins Geoff to talk about strength, entrepreneurship, and the Marines. I love Grant’s story: from a homeschooled teenage window cleaner in the South Carolina Lowcountry, to the Citadel then Marines, to a strength coach, to the (pandemic inspired) manufacturer of gym equipment, to balancing the obligations of his new business with his reservist commitments, to his year-long deployment and return late last year. “Improvise, Adapt, and Overcome!” Show notes on the Yeoman website.

    Discussion of Paul Kingsnorth’s Against the Machine – #30

    Justin Owings and Ty Abernathy joined Geoff to discuss Paul Kingsnorth’s latest book, Against the Machine. Our two-hour, fire-side, dog-accompanied conversation covers a lot of territory—raising children in the age of the Machine, entrepreneurship, globalism and financialization, corporate bureaucracy, technocracy, rootedness, homelessness, skin-in-the-game, limits, GenZ—and we hardly scratched the surface.

    Zak Slayback: Rerum Novarum, Pope Leo XIII, Capital, Labor, and Morality – #28

    Zak Slayback joins Geoff to discuss Pope Leo XIII’s encyclical Rerum Novarum, the context in which it was written, and its relevance to today. Topics include the emergence of nationalism and industrial-scale capitalism, the subsequent fracturing of cottage industries, the rise of socialist reactionary movements, the obligations employers have to workers (and vice versa), subsidiarity, and the moral challenges investors face in our hyper-financialized consumer economy.
