IN THE MIX 1: featuring Ruth Bailey, Keith Christian, Jeremy Gibbs, Will Foster, Andrew Findley and Keith Kent

Today I'm introducing a new show IN THE MIX.

During the past three year over 120 guests have featured on the Inside Agri-Turf podcast. All have had tales to tell, advice to pass on and experiences to relate that are relevant to those working in this extraordinary land-based engineering industry.

Tucked away in our back-catalogue are some wonderful contributions, some a reminder of challenging times such as working through the pandemic.

IN THE MIX will be published monthly in addition to the regular output.

Extracts featured in this first episode, together with time-stamps are:
