The podcast had a birthday! In honor of the milestone, we are posting a revised edition of a fan-favorite from Season 1, Episode 5: Fried Eggs - Starfire GPS History. There have been some updates to the Starfire GPS line since it was posted, so we thought it was worthwhile to add another chapter to the episode. We have some big plans for Season 2 of Everything Ag & Then Some, hopefully you'll join us on the ride!
