Lex Allen on being compared to Prince, being less shitty than yesterday and much more
There first place was called the Runza Hut and was in reality a walk up roadside stand on the street leading to Pioneer Park in Lincoln Nebraska. We ate them in the car. The Everett family claim to inventing the name is horse poo poo. Once I asked an Everett family member if he knew what Runza means in German and he said yes, it means book bag. So much for Grandma Evertt inventing the word. Kraut runza or runza is what the stuffed kraut and meat pies were called in the South Russen Bottoms in Lincoln. The N at the end of Runzan is a very soft sound overpowered by the A. Runzan is an old German word still found in German children spelling books and is a common miss spelled word by children. Runzan in German means children's book bag or ruck sack because of its rectangle book bag shape. My uncle had a salon on 9th and O in Lincoln that sold Kraut Runza in the late 1930's. All the Everetts did was shorten the name by removing cabbage from the common name. They knew and always knew what runza meant in German. If they were stuffed with Cheese (Kase) they were called Kase Runzan. I once had an old children's book written back in the early 1900" written by a woman who had taught at a country school in South Dakota. She told of the Volga German children bringing runzas to school for lunch.
Tik tok for education children basic of vegetable and simple agriculture the children will learn more from books I hope so 😊
Pretty darned cool! It's almost as if he's 'stumbled into' becoming a top tier, world class (now WORLD RECORD HOLDER!!) pursuiter. NOT saying that he did not put in maybe even much MORE hard work than anyone else at that level (as far as his gym/weight workouts probably MANY times more!!), just that going from gravel to track is highly unlikely, and unusual. I wish you could have gotten into WHO noticed him crushing it/everyone else in the gravel events, and suggested he somehow go for the on the borderline of anaerobic power event on the track (which seems like a giant leap over road/crit racing which would usually be the 'normal' logical progression).
Thank you for not being a kardashian.
We love Laura! Her personality and her down to earth farm girl feel just reels you right in . And the smile just brightens everyone's day.
I love your humble attitude & approach on life . Only been watching 6 months & absolutely love watching your energy/ enthusiasm & of course your beautiful self .
Such a nice guy. Would be cool to travel back in time to that garage and tell him he'll make history in the pursuit next year
I just love that you brought 21st century farming to the masses. You are joyful, smart and cute as can be! The dairy farm in New York you visited blew my mind! Keep on traveling.
Unemployment is an inferior metric to labor force participation in every sense. Btw, NE's labor force participation is 68.4%. It's nice to huff and puff like everything is fine.. but the reality is that after the economic recession that will inevitably ensue from COVID, 1 of 2 things will happen: 1.) Power and Wealth is concentrated into the hands of a few individuals. 2.) We create a more prosperous society for everyone. We are trending towards the former atm.
“If you live wishing away every moment away you never enjoy where you are” -Andrea von Kampen
YES! Beautiful perspective on life
@@TheCommonwealthMedia I know right!!!
When I feel down I watch one of your videos when I see your huge smile it makes me happy 😊 inside
This is such a cool setting. Shoutout to THE FEY. Shoutout to the team at The Commonwealth Media for putting in the constant work! Cheers! Shoutout to Zach and Lud
YESS🔥
Very smart intelligent woman !!
👌👌
She is the Elvis of farming all of my good fortune has come from farming and commodities, you rock girl.
I found Laura Early this year, I have gone back to watching the very first videos on the channel....Love her as a committed farmer and a person in general. Love her content, I'm working on starting my own farm, from her inspiration. It will be way smaller but she is the reason. Her devotion is inspiring...
es muy wapa, trabajadora y preciosa sonrisa, entonces triunfa
This interviewer is a tool..
This girl is awesome! Just started watching her videos. This has just reconfirmed that she is intelligent & the real deal.
GoPro is nice for action only and an incredible pain to deal with. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The app alone will make you want to stab something. Then the lack of reliability, horrible batteries, GUI frustrations, bluetooth that rarely works, the glitches, etc. The image stabilization is so good that it almost looks CG sometimes.
cute
Entertainment is rarely what we the people think it should be in these days and times and real and truth has been burned at the stake. Television and news is something that I lost complete interest in way back in the nineties, mostly because it’s not real or truthful. That being said when I turn on you tube and click on a channel that is filled with a young girl who is super special, has a husband who is equally as special as she is , and she and her husband is sharing their honest and hard working not so simple lifestyles with me , a retired old man in North Carolina, it just warms my heart , just to know this sweet young lady is special treat for us older Americans who have nearly lost all faith in humanity.
She down to earth and real that s. What people like about her
this literally needs a million plus views...
You share it with friends??👀
You wont see Kim Kardashian wake boarding behind a pickup truck in a flooded ditch! This girl is awesome and real as you will ever see, anywhere. Thats why we love her
Been following for a while! As a chef, I wanna know where my food is coming from.
These farmer types here get rich! Watch out she will be a millionaire before long
Just recently discovered Laura on YT and have really enjoyed watching her day to day adventures in farming. As someone who is very tired of the typical mindless forgettable copy-cat social media drivel that we are all endlessly bombarded with daily, it was so refreshing to see Laura's videos. Educational and fun-to-watch videos from a bright, smart, young and talented person with such am amazing personality and charm. Laura is like a ray of sunshine! Thanks for interviewing her!
Thanks for watching!!
Great conversation with Laura, thanks to both of you.
Thanks for watching! Any big takeaways?
@@TheCommonwealthMedia a technical one - the over the shoulder shot didn't work with auto focus. Camera was confused on what to focus on. The conversation itself was wonderful. Laura is charming and well spoken.
I hope she stays humble it's her main attraction to all of us. and that beautiful smile. but im sure some big shot producer is eyeing her already with those looks of her (100% the girl next door)
i could spend hours listening to her giggle.
What was ONE new thing you learned about the COVID vaccine?
I still need to practice social distancing because I might be around people who haven’t been vaccinated yet.
Laura is a great role model for her generation and the generation before her.
Kraut Ranzas have been made in my family for generations! We also call them cabbage burgers! I'm craving them so much right now! I use a lot of pepper in my mixture.
Yes 🙌
Stop by and I will make you a deep fried runza or the baked version. @@TheCommonwealthMedia
Great interview. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Major props to Kelly Ross, she definitely understands the plight of our refugee stories and perspectives. She spoke about the insecurities that we all possess coming into a new country. Great job with the questioning Nick!
Thank you...your compliment is very humbling! I wouldn't have any insight without the countless hours spent in the homes of my friends and students, drinking tea and learning more about their culture and joys/successes of moving to the US through their outstanding hospitality. -Kelly
@@echocollectivene this thread is why we make content. Thank you both for sharing your perspectives!
Beautiful personality, I respect everyone who makes anything grow
Came across her by looking up how to make garden beds for the wife. In this crazy world, watching her channel along with her family and boyfriend is refreshing. There is normal out in there. Hope is grows and is contagious. Learned a lot about farming as well. I want to drive one of those big ole tractors now.
That for you young guys is wife material!!!
Sorry guys. Lauri and Grant married at Christmas 2021. She never posted the actual wedding video but it was posted by a third party. Probably the photography. They are a great couple and had a beautiful wedding.
@@Ravenscaller 2020,2021 isn't here yet
Love this! Thank you Ira Nathan! Going through my photos and putting names and dates on them now for future generations!
Ander is a national treasure.
Couldn't agree more!!
Her energy is infectious ,and she rides dirt bikes.👍
Enjoyed this interview! Friend of Mikes and former Bay staff and just wanted to drop a comment and say you asked some great questions. Can Definetely tell you prepped for this. excited to listen to more interviews 🙏
Thank you, my guy! Mike is charismatic as all hell. You may enjoy our last few interviews (Wyn Wiley and Erin Sorenson). Thanks for the support!
Are you here for the Nebraska or media talk?
Both 😏
Media talk
Thought this was The Onion.
Motivate!
I'm an 80 year old farmer from Kansas and been with Laura from the beginning. Whenever I've had a tough day, I watch a Laura Farms video and I realize that life is beautiful!!
Amazing to hear. Thank you for watching our video!! Here's another interview of ours that you may enjoy: ua-cam.com/video/D1ZoZwhTbK0/v-deo.html
Who's inspired after listening to Ashton?
I am inspired by any human being who can blast 4 consecutive sub 1 minute kilo rides!!!!😉👍👍👍
What's your biggest takeaway from the convo?
Laura is awesome. I watch all her videos.
