  82: What If Dragons Are NOT Just Mythology? 18.08.2026 22min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Did dragons actually exist, or has history been rewritten to make sure you never ask?In this episode, I share what I found in old books, Latin dictionaries, and dragon artwork, and outline why those sources contradict what we learned in school.A 1946 dictionary defined dragons as "now rare". My 1700s Latin dictionary lists female dragons, water dragons, and baby dragons as if they were distinct animals. Medieval manuscripts placed dragons next to elephants and wolves, not in a separate section labeled fantasy.Ancient China, medieval Europe, Japan, the Vikings, and the feathered serpent cultures of Central and South America all recorded dragon-like creatures independently across thousands of years. The Chinese zodiac uses eleven real animals and one dragon. Why?My argument with Dr. Phil about carbon dating comes up. So does the Triceratops skull I once stood next to before a museum whisked it away, a 1500s book on the medicinal use of the unicorn horn, Marco Polo's writings on dragons and griffins, and why I think rare book collectors are acting as gatekeepers of a version of history most people will never see.I'm not telling you dragons existed. I'm asking why the answer feels so protected.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:45] How a 1946 dictionary defined dragons as "now rare" instead of imaginary[5:48] Dozens of disconnected cultures recorded strikingly similar dragon creatures[9:01] Why medieval books listed dragons alongside real animals like elephants and lions[12:52] The newspaper accounts of flying reptiles that historians still debate[17:46] Why the Chinese zodiac lists only real animals, except the dragonResources Mentioned:1984 by George Orwell | BookThe Travels of Marco Polo the Venetian by Marco Polo | ArchiveDictionary, English and Latin by Robert Ainsworth (1773 edition) | ArchiveDe Unicornu Observationes Novae by Bartholin, T. et al.

  81: They Hide Electroculture From You So You Keep Buying More Fertilizer 11.08.2026 18min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Electroculture gardening sounds ridiculous… until you stick copper into your own garden bed and watch what happens next.After five years of growing blackberries on the homestead, this year's harvest has been the most abundant I've ever had, and it lined up with the season I loaded that bed with copper wire and antennas.Electroculture is the practice of placing copper stakes, wires, and antennas in the garden to interact with the natural electricity in the atmosphere. Some gardeners swear by it. Others insist there's no science behind it. My response to the "no research" crowd is simple: my eyeballs are the research. The beds with copper and the beds without look nothing alike, and the difference is obvious.There's a bigger story tucked inside this too… Old French books on electroculture that people say disappeared. An element called aether that used to sit in the dictionary and doesn't anymore. Antennas on the old world's fair buildings that I've talked about in the “Secrets Hidden in Mainstream History” episode linked below. None of that proves anything on its own, but it makes you wonder what we've been trained not to look at. If you've been curious about copper in the garden, or you're tired of being told a good harvest requires a paywall of fertilizer and sprays, this one is for you.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[2:48] Electroculture gardening explained, and why copper harvests keep going viral[4:41] Why "my eyeballs are the science" beats waiting for a research paper[7:41] They lied about fertilizer and Roundup, and what the dandelion reveals[9:15] Copper's real risk with lightning, and the storm boost that followed[11:18] How disappearing French books and world's fair antennas hint at a reset[16:02] Why gardeners split into two camps, and where you should actually landRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:These Secrets Hidden in Mainstream History Reveal A Dark PatternThe Hidden Benefits of Dandelions & Why No One Knows About ThemFind more from Gubba: Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  80: Everyone Is Quitting Homesteading. DON'T Make Their Mistake 04.08.2026 16min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Fear got a lot of people into homesteading, and it's the exact reason most of them are walking away.Five years ago, homesteading felt like the beginning of a movement. Now Marketplace is full of chicken coops, freeze dryers, incubators, and canning supplies, and I've been noticing the shift.People who once posted daily about their gardens haven't planted one this year. Some are openly saying they're done. Others have moved on without much explanation. That got me asking why so many jumped in around 2020 only to walk away a few years later.Fear is a strong motivator. Empty grocery shelves pushed millions of people to learn skills they'd never considered before, and I think that was a good thing. Once fear fades and life gets comfortable again, most people drop the lifestyle… but I'm still out here living it. The goats still yell at me on Saturday mornings. The weeding never ends. Canning butter at 2 a.m. is a real thing that happens.There's also a comparison problem worth naming. You can't see the family money, the inherited knowledge, or the nanny behind the picture-perfect homestead you're measuring yourself against.This episode is my honest read on why people quit, what the ones who stay have in common, and why starting small in your kitchen matters more than trying to run a full operation on day one.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:44] The fear behind the 2020 homesteading boom[6:13] Butter-canning at 2AM, and what it taught me about homesteading[7:54] Why biting off everything at once burns new homesteaders out[10:28] The sunshine-and-rainbows myth versus losing livestock and storm-wrecked gardens[14:26] Why anyone can homestead, and the gatekeeping that says otherwise Related Gubba Homestead Episodes:11 Easy Things You Can Do Today to Start Homesteading (From Anywhere) Find more from Gubba: Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  79: The Clothes You're Wearing Are Making You Sick 28.07.2026 16min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Your clothes and bed sheets touch your skin more than almost anything else, so why have we stopped asking what they're made of? For thousands of years, clothing came straight from nature: linen from flax, cotton from the plant, wool from sheep.In the last century, synthetic fibers like polyester, spandex, and acrylic took over our closets, and most of us have never stopped to ask what that shift might be doing to us.In this episode, I break down the difference between natural and synthetic fibers, and why our skin (our largest organ) reacts so differently to each. I also share a surprising study linking polyester garments to lower fertility in dogs, and dig into the chemical treatments hiding in modern textiles, from flame retardants to stain-resistant coatings.This isn't about tossing your whole wardrobe overnight. It's about small, sustainable swaps, like linen sheets and wool blankets, that add up over time.If you've never thought twice about the fabric touching your skin all day, this episode might just change that.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[2:00] Most people couldn’t tell you what fabric their clothes are made from[4:01] Why clothing changed 100 years ago, just like our food system did[5:36] Breathable natural fibers regulate temperature in ways synthetics can't[8:02] The polyester dog fertility study that should make you pay attention[9:42] The lymph and circulation effects of sweating in spandex leggings[11:56] The hidden flame retardants and toxic chemical treatments coating your clothes[14:07] Swapping fibers gradually, without throwing your whole wardrobe away[15:56] The idea that different fabrics carry different frequenciesRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:These Secrets Hidden in Mainstream History Reveal A Dark PatternFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  78: They Control You Through Your Food - Here's How to Free Yourself 21.07.2026 29min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.We’ve become so disconnected from our food that new generations don’t even know where it comes from. We need to do something about it.I'm a first-time homesteader who spent most of my life buying tomatoes instead of growing them, and this episode is the honest reckoning I had once I started putting seeds in the ground.Two generations ago, gardens weren't a hobby or a lifestyle. They were a basic household skill, right alongside cooking and cleaning. Then convenience arrived, supermarkets grew, and the knowledge my great-grandparents took for granted disappeared inside a single lifetime.I want to talk about how that happened, why the Victory Garden Movement produced more than vegetables, and why the perfect lawn might be one of the strangest trades we've ever made.If gardening feels intimidating, that's the point I want to sit with. It shouldn't be, and the fix is easier than you think.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[5:13] Practical knowledge disappears within a generation or two without practice[9:35] The beginner mistake of planting what looks cool in the catalog instead of what your family eats[12:47] He who controls the food controls the people, and the grocery store rollout may not be a coincidence[15:46] Gardening is actually a soil project, not a plant project[19:14] Planting flowers alongside vegetables and why nature never separates them[25:32] The five reasons we stopped growing our own food, and why lawns are a psyop Related Gubba Homestead Episodes:11 Easy Things You Can Do Today to Start Homesteading (From Anywhere)Why I'm Buying Old Tech Before 2030Resources Mentioned:Ultimate Garden Planner | WebsiteFind more from Gubba: Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  77: Why I've Stopping Using Smart Technology & Gone Back to The 90's 14.07.2026 22min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.The most radical thing you can do in today's home isn't buying the newest device. It's refusing to.Returning to a '90s household is about noticing how much ownership we've handed over to streaming services, smart devices, and cloud servers without realizing it.As a first-time homesteader, I've spent years learning to stop depending on grocery stores. Lately, I've been applying that same thinking to the technology inside my home, and it started with one small decision: bringing an old CRT television into the house.The response I got online told me thousands of people are hungry for the same thing. Vinyl records, film cameras, DVDs, camcorders, and libraries are all having a moment right now, and it isn't because everyone suddenly became sentimental.Convenience is not free. Streaming replaced ownership. Smartphones replaced dedicated cameras and brought constant distraction. Cloud storage replaced photo albums that your grandchildren could hold in their hands.If we can pass down canning jars and gardening knowledge, we can pass down movies, music, and photographs, too.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:15] The thousands of unexpected responses online after I brought a CRT television home[5:06] The Game of Thrones conspiracy and why modern TV feels designed to discombobulate you[7:53] Curating a physical movie collection and the Disney films that won't make the shelf[10:48] Why an iPod that only plays music feels more freeing than a smartphone[13:24] Convenience is not free, the hidden trade-off behind every modern upgrade[15:02] Applying homesteader resilience to technology, not just the pantry[18:54] The shift toward vinyl, film cameras, and permanence in a temporary worldFind more from Gubba: Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  76: Why Butter Is Not Really Unhealthy 07.07.2026 24min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Butter sat at the center of nearly every kitchen for thousands of years. Then within a few decades, people were afraid to eat it.I'm a first-time homesteader following in the footsteps of my great-grandparents, and butter is now a daily staple in my kitchen after years of believing it was unhealthy. The shift in how I see it didn't come from a study. It came from paying attention.My great-grandmother milked her own cow and churned her own butter. By the time I was a teenager, my friends and I were chasing low-fat labels and avoiding the same food our ancestors had prized for generations.Margarine showed up in a spray bottle in my house once, and my body knew within one bite that something was off. That memory stuck for a reason.The story of butter isn't really about dairy. It's about how trusted foods get replaced, how marketing rewrites memory, and what happens to a family kitchen when you stop asking where the food came from.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[1:44] I was a teenager raised on low-fat diets and taught to fear butter[4:56] The “I Can't Believe It's Not Butter” memory that revealed the deception[11:32] What Weston A. Price discovered about traditional cultures and animal fats[13:47] Why vitamins A, E, and K2 found in butter make it essential [14:57] How margarine and factory food replaced the farm in the 20th century[18:19] The mystery-funded studies that convinced doctors saturated fat causes heart disease[20:37] Why heart disease skyrocketed after butter and lard left the kitchen[22:16] Question everything and put butter back at the centre of your kitchenRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:The Truth About Milk: What Changed and Why It MattersThese Secrets Hidden in Mainstream History Reveal A Dark PatternThe Hidden Benefits of Dandelions & Why No One Knows About ThemFind more from Gubba: Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  75: Everyday Products You Need to Stay Away From 30.06.2026 30min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Most people will spend 20 minutes reading the back of a cracker box but have never once flipped over the shampoo bottle sitting in their shower.That gap between how we treat food and how we treat everyday personal care products is what I want to dig into in this episode. Shampoo, body wash, lotion, deodorant, laundry detergent. These are products most of us use every single day for years without ever asking what's actually in them or why.I walk through the lens I use whenever I'm standing in a store deciding whether to bring a product home. It's not fear, and it's not paranoia about every ingredient. It's a simple question: why is this here, and does it serve a real purpose?Sweat as a detox pathway, the aluminum question, the fabric softener that gave me a mystery rash, the matrix moment in the laundry aisle. All of it ties together.If you've ever felt sick walking past the detergent shelf, you'll understand why by the end.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[1:36] Why do we scrutinize food labels but blindly trust what we put on our skin?[5:15] The lens to use when standing in a store deciding what comes home[6:53] Shampoo is engineered for the sensory experience, not actually cleansing your hair[8:44] Hair as an antenna, Samson, and the conspiracy behind widespread balding[11:10] That tight squeegee feeling after a shower means the product is harming you[15:15] The deodorant rabbit hole, lymphatic detox, and the breast cancer connection[18:18] The mystery skin reaction that exposed fabric softener as a hidden culprit[19:47] Why a shirt should never smell like perfume two weeks after washing[27:21] The Cypher problem: why some homesteaders choose to be plugged back into the matrixRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:5 Things Women Aren't Told About Healthcare Products & ScreeningsResources Mentioned:Summer Blend Tallow Balm - Limited Edition | ShopFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.The version of milk most people grew up with is not the version nature made, and the difference matters more than people think.I've been drinking raw milk for five or six years, starting with a weekly drop-off from a farm four hours away, then driving 90 minutes each week to get it, then raising my own Jersey cow, and now milking my own dairy goats and sheep.Most people only know the gallon jug version of milk. Standardized. Pasteurized. Homogenized. Fortified.They've never watched cream rise on its own. They've never tasted milk from an animal foraging on pasture. They've never questioned why the cream gets stripped out and sold back to them as ice cream, while the milk gets refortified with synthetic vitamins.In this episode, I go over what raw milk contains, what processing does to it, and how I grew up drinking skim milk during a generation now dealing with skyrocketing hormone issues.If anyone has ever pushed back on you about raw milk, this is the episode that helps you stand your ground.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[4:03] Why generations valued raw milk and what the headlines never tell you[8:36] How skim milk, fortification, and the ice cream industry profit off the same gallon twice[11:31] All 22 essential minerals, complete amino acids, and why one food can do it all[13:56] What pasteurization destroys and why filthy dairies were the real problem[15:59] Homogenization, fat globules, and why convenience changed milk forever[17:30] Why fat-free milk strips the very delivery system your hormones depend on[20:48] Soil, happy animals, and the connection that makes milk worth drinkingRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:5 Things Women Aren't Told About Healthcare Products & ScreeningsResources Mentioned:Root Revival Hair Serum | ShopFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  73: Sunscreen is a Psyop, Here's Why 16.06.2026 26min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Are you sure sunscreen is the go-to solution for your body during the summer?The sunscreen conversation has become so loud that most people never stop to ask what's actually happening to their skin in the summer. I think we've been pointing at the wrong target for years.A couple of years ago, my research into sunscreen ingredients got me censored on social media and called a liar by a major outlet that later had to retract it. That experience pushed me further into a topic the system clearly doesn't want questioned.Sunscreen is one small piece. Your skin is also responding to heat, sweat, chlorine, smoke, air conditioning, the seed oils in your diet, the LEDs in every room you walk into, and hours of blue light from screens before bed.I want to talk about what your skin is actually asking for during the hottest months, why a damaged barrier often looks oily instead of dry, and what I changed in my own diet and home lighting that made the biggest difference. The answer was never another product.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:00] Getting called a liar and banned from social media over sunscreen research[5:28] Why your skin's relationship with the sun goes way beyond sunscreen[7:40] The dehydration trap most people fall into during summer[9:45] Damaged skin barriers don't always look dry, and the cycle that makes it worse[13:21] Why two people in the same sun can have completely different experiences[14:52] How giving up seed oils changed my sunburn response[16:04] Artificial light may be doing more damage to your skin than sunlight does[24:05] Coming back into your body and tuning into what your skin is asking forRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:Why I Don’t Wear SunscreenResources Mentioned:Arvoti Sun Care Blend Tallow Balm | ShopArvoti Rose Revive Toning Mist | ShopFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  72: 11 Easy Things You Can Do Today to Start Homesteading (From Anywhere) 09.06.2026 32min

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Starting the homestead lifestyle is easier than most people think.Somewhere along the way, we got sold the idea that homesteading requires acres of land, a farmhouse, and cows at sunrise. It doesn't. The version most people never hear about starts in a kitchen, with a mason jar and a bag of scraps you were going to throw away.So many of us feel a pull toward a slower way of living right now, and there are real reasons behind it. Grocery prices keep climbing. Empty shelves still sit fresh in our memory. Ingredient labels read like a chemistry experiment. The systems we depend on feel more fragile than we were told they were.The skills I started with are small and practical. Homemade broth easily comes together from kitchen scraps. Sprouts grow on a countertop. Sourdough, fermentation, freezer jam, canning, homemade cleaners, and beeswax candles all fit into a normal week. A rotating pantry gradually builds itself two items at a time.None of it requires perfection. None of it requires land. It only requires starting.You’ll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:58] How the system profits when you stop cooking from scratch[5:53] Turning kitchen scraps into nutrient-dense broth for pennies on the dollar[8:14] Growing sprouts on your countertop with just a Mason jar[10:05] Why store-bought bread tastes like chemicals once you bake your own[13:21] Sauerkraut, slowness, and the forgotten power of fermentation[14:56] Freezer jam, rhubarb pink lemonade, and why canning brings peace, not fear[20:09] Homemade citrus vinegar cleaner and beeswax candles that double as prep[22:13] Remembering the masked Walmart arrows and never being caught unprepared again[26:33] Why the people coming to take your preps won't make it up the driveway[28:49] Four generations lost these skills, but yours is taking them backResources Mentioned:How To Use A Sourdough Starter | ArticleHomemade Sourdough Dinner Rolls | RecipeChocolaty Sourdough Brownies | RecipeJoin my Homestead Prepper's Guide to Canning Course to learn how to start canning today!Find more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

And what does it have to do with diseases like Alpha-gal syndrome?I keep getting messages asking what I do about ticks on my homestead, and the more I look into this topic, the stranger it gets. Farmers say tick pressure is worse than they've ever seen. Hunters are pulling shocking numbers off of deer. Families find them on their kids after a few minutes outside.Let's dive into why this feels different now, and why I don't think we're getting the full story.In this episode, I cover the Cold War-era research on ticks and other insects as vectors, the Plum Island Animal Disease Center, the 2019 Congressional amendment asking the Pentagon to investigate biological weapons used between 1950 and 1975, and the Gates Foundation funding cattle tick research.Then I share the practical side.

  Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.The more I tested what AI would and wouldn't answer, the more I realized something was being shaped on the other end of every question.Artificial intelligence has woven itself into daily life so subtly that almost nobody stops to ask what they're actually paying with.I started testing the limits of what these systems will answer, and the patterns I noticed shifted how I think about every interaction. Certain narratives get pushed, while others get blocked entirely. Have you noticed that the way people write online is starting to sound eerily similar?Then there's the data centers… Two thousand acres at a time, humming next to neighborhoods where wells are running dry and people are getting sick. The official story is that AI needs the power. I'm not convinced that's the whole story.If thoughts and emotions generate energy, and attention directs it, then billions of people engaging with the same system every day isn't just data collection.

The accounts I'm hearing from people who actually went through it tell a different story.Across decades and unrelated school districts, former GATE students keep describing the same details: Pattern recognition cards, headphones in closets, an older woman called "Grandma", and memory gaps where the lessons should be.I walk through what the program looked like on paper, what people actually remember experiencing, and how those memories line up with documented research into human consciousness, like MKUltra and the Stargate Project. I also share my own account of being pulled out of a first grade classroom near a military base and asked to read the collective mind of the class.The question I keep coming back to is one worth sitting with.

  68: The Magical Powers of Garlic for Your Body, Home, Garden & Pets 12.05.2026 35min

  Garlic is more powerful than most people think.I use garlic across my homestead in ways that go against almost everything mainstream pet care, gardening advice, and livestock guidance recommend. I feed it to my dogs in measured amounts during tick season, spray it on my berries, ferment it in raw honey, and recently cleared mastitis in one of my goats in three days without antibiotics.This episode covers the dog dosage chart by weight, the garlic spray ratio for gardens, the honey ferment process step by step, a goat recovery story, the Amish homesteading family who surprised me by recommending harsh chemical fertilizer, and how to plant, cure, and replant garlic year after year.There is a reason this knowledge faded out of common use, and it has less to do with safety than with what can and cannot be patented and sold back to you. One example: the warning that garlic is toxic to dogs traces back to one study most pet owners have never actually opened.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:58] Why garlic knowledge faded from homesteads and kitchens[06:44] The dog garlic study most people misquote[09:33] Garlic dosage for dogs by weight and tick season timing[12:32] How garlic cleared mastitis in my goat in three days[18:05] Homemade garlic spray recipe for gardens and chicken coops[22:46] How to make honey-fermented garlic at home[25:24] Using garlic steam for respiratory support indoors[29:50] How to plant, harvest, and cure your own garlicRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:The Truth About Pet Food: Why (And How) I Feed My Pets RawNatural Flea and Tick Prevention for Dogs: The Terrain Approach Without Toxic PesticidesFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  67: These Secrets Hidden in Mainstream History Reveal A Dark Pattern 05.05.2026 29min

  Check out my natural skincare products at Arvoti.comSome historical events have been hiding dark secrets.Between 1854 and 1929, more than 200,000 children were loaded onto trains and shipped across the United States. The deeper I went into the records, the less the official story held up. Many of these children were not orphans. Some had living parents; Some were taken because of poverty; Some just vanished into a system with almost no oversight at all.Once I started looking at what else was happening in that same time period, I couldn't unsee it. Cities were burning down one after another. Insane asylums were being built in places that didn't have the population to fill them. World fairs were putting up massive Roman-style buildings in empty fields and tearing them back down a year later. Baby incubators were a paid public attraction with real infants on display.I walk you through the orphan trains, the fires, the fairs, the asylums, the Cabbage Patch Kids, and a passage from the Book of Jasher that I genuinely could not stop thinking about.

  66: 5 Things Women Aren’t Told About Healthcare Products & Screening Tests 28.04.2026 42min

  Check out my natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Women trust pap smears, mammograms, skincare labels, and feminine hygiene products without question. The full risk and ingredient information rarely makes it into the conversation.I uncover five areas of women's health where transparency is seriously lacking. Gynecological tools are sterilized with a known carcinogen. Cumulative mammogram radiation is seldom mentioned by doctors. Skincare routines layer over a hundred synthetic compounds onto your skin before breakfast. Chlorine-bleached fibers sit against permeable tissue for days each month during menstruation. And the word "fragrance" legally conceals dozens of undisclosed toxic ingredients on a single label.This is not about fear. It's about giving women the information to make real decisions. Understanding false positive rates, reading ingredient labels, and reducing chemical burden are practical steps anyone can take today.Whether you're rethinking your skincare shelf, questioning a screening recommendation, or learning what "fragrance" actually means, this episode fills in what the system leaves out.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[04:32] Ethylene oxide on pap smear instruments and what consent forms leave out[07:24] How abnormal pap results can trigger a cascade of follow-up procedures[12:13] Mammogram compression, cumulative radiation, and the overdiagnosis problem[19:58] Why screening campaigns emphasize urgency over diagnostic nuance[23:14] Endocrine-disrupting chemicals hiding in everyday skincare products[29:20] Chlorine bleaching and the case for cleaner feminine hygiene products[35:45] What the word "fragrance" legally conceals on ingredient labelsResources Mentioned:Arvoti All Natural SkincareEvaluation of the Inhalation Carcinogenicity of Ethylene Oxide by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) | ArticleIARC Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans Volume 60 by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer | WebsiteFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  65: The Hidden Benefits of Dandelions & Why No One Knows About Them 21.04.2026 37min

  Try my all-natural skincare, Arvoti.What if the plant you’ve been taught to destroy is actually one of the most useful things growing in your yard?I’ve started looking at dandelions in a completely different way since living closer to the land, and that shift has changed how I think about natural medicine and self-sufficiency. When something grows this abundantly without intervention, it raises a real question about whether the issue is the plant or how we’ve been taught to see it.Reconnecting with homesteading practices has a way of challenging modern norms around lawns, food, and what we consider useful. Every part of the dandelion serves a purpose, from leaves that support digestion to roots and flowers that have been used traditionally in everyday life.The deeper you dig, the harder it is to ignore how much we’ve been pulled away from our bodies, our food, and the natural systems around us. Simple practices like grounding, spending time outside, and paying attention to what naturally grows start to bring that connection back and reshape how you think about natural medicine.Something as simple as a plant in your yard can change the way you see food, health, and the systems around you.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[01:02] Who benefits from teaching us to hate dandelions[07:26] Dandelions as essential bee forage, and the link to colony collapse[10:24] Leaves, root, and flowers: what every part of the dandelion actually does for your body[22:39] How the dandelion was rebranded as a weed, glyphosate's health concerns, and the delay-and-replace playbook[29:05] The systemic pattern behind it all, and why questioning the dandelion leads to questioning everythingRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:Natural Flea and Tick Prevention for Dogs: The Terrain Approach Without Toxic PesticidesWhy I Don’t Wear SunscreenHow & Why I Stopped Depending on Conventional Systems – My Homesteading JourneyRecipes From This Episode:Dandelion Jelly and Dandelion Root TeaFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

  64: How & Why I Stopped Depending on Conventional Systems - My Homesteading Journey 14.04.2026 40min

  Try my all-natural skincare, Arvoti.Not believing in conventional systems led me to homesteading.I’ve been thinking about what it means to live a life that isn’t fragile, and why so many of us feel pulled toward self-sufficiency right now. This is me slowing things down and reintroducing myself in a way that actually reflects where I’m at, because this space has grown and I’ve grown with it.I’ve spent nearly a decade learning homesteading, and what matters most to me now is helping you see that you’re more capable than you’ve been led to believe. You don’t need to grow up this way to step into self-sufficiency.It can start in your kitchen, with small shifts like cooking your own food and learning how to analyze ingredients. As you begin to question where your food comes from, it naturally expands into food independence, self-reliance, and even deeper curiosity about the systems around you.That curiosity becomes a foundational part of your life. It’s the motivating factor to start prepping, thinking critically, and building a life that can actually support you when things shift.Homesteading isn’t about perfection. It’s about starting, staying curious, and realizing you have more control than you’ve been led to believe.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:08] Why Gubba homesteads and who this lifestyle is suitable for[08:56] How the school system kills independent thinking and where that rabbit hole leads[16:04] The Dr. Phil appearance that made people question everything about her[19:39] Why Gubba stopped trusting big pharma, and started making her own skincare products[24:03] The waking-up story she hadn't fully told yet, starting with raw milk[32:56] How questioning everything led her to a truth she'll never un-seeRelated Gubba Homestead Episodes:The World Fairs, Aether, and the Great Reset Dragons vs Dinosaurs: Memory, Myth, and the Story We Were Taught to Believe What if the Holy Land described in the Bible wasn’t in the Middle East at all—but in the American West? Find more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop
