About Us

The world paused in 2020 and the Cearley family, like many others, began to question our place in it. We decided to sell our house, along with most of what was in it, and move to a 100+ year old, one bedroom, farmhouse on Shannon’s family's ranch out side of Stephenville Texas. You could say we went a little crazy durning the “2 weeks to flatten the curve”. Join us as we try to learn the old ways of small plot farming and figure out how modern day living fits into that.

Dexter is a FireFighter/Paramedic when he isn’t clearing brush or chasing around cattle. Dexter started the Panhandle Primate Podcast in 2016 where he interviewed guests from all walks of life. In 2020 the show was rebranded as The D_Program podcast which he and Shannon now co-host. Dexter is also a short story author. He enjoys running and shooting his bow.
