Southern Homesteading Podcast

Chuck and Barbie Bowser host the Southern Homesteading Podcast with a focus on the specific challenges of homesteading in the southern United States. Heat, humidity, different growing seasons, and regional pests all come into play, and this show addresses those realities head-on. The podcast launched in 2020 with episodes covering livestock management, predator protection, fast-growing plants like Moringa trees, homestead infrastructure decisions, and working with county extension services. Chuck and Barbie bring a husband-and-wife dynamic to the show, interviewing experts alongside sharing their own homestead experiences. One standout feature is their practical approach to comparing DIY solutions against commercial products for farm infrastructure. They introduce their animals by name (including their dogs, affectionately called "WoWoos"), which gives the show a personal, lived-in feel. Episodes range from 17 to 41 minutes. The podcast has a small but enthusiastic following with a perfect 5.0 rating from early reviews. With only 7 episodes released so far, this is a show in its early stages. It carries an explicit content rating. For listeners specifically homesteading in the South who want advice tailored to that climate and growing environment, this podcast fills a niche that most general homesteading shows overlook. The regional specificity is its biggest strength.
