Whoop! Whoop! Host Erika Gilsdorf (that’s me!) is an international, award-winning video producer, who leaves the camera behind (for the most part) to let conversations breathe authentically in a podcast that spans diverse guests and topics. I include mental health guests, too who help us cope with all the crap and find joy amidst all the junk happening to our outdoors. Uffda…it’s a lot! (I’m a Minnesotan if you can't tell). Most importantly, this is a podcast about inspiration, hope, action, and connection. We have each other my friends!","last_synced_at":"2026-07-29T00:17:45.982777+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-global-grit-experience-7725883"},"episode":{"title":"Jim Etzel Makes Humanure Compost - This One's a Poop Talk","slug":"jim-etzel-makes-humanure-compost-this-one-s-a-poop-talk","published_at":"2026-04-02T12:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-global-grit-experience-7725883/jim-etzel-makes-humanure-compost-this-one-s-a-poop-talk","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-global-grit-experience-7725883","url":"https://theglobalgritexperience.com/episode/its-the-poop-talk-jim-makes-humanure-compost-what","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/8f79c7bb-4dab-4621-b29d-c60cfeba1b80.mp3","summary":"My guest today is Jim Etzel from Hackensack, Minnesota. He’s the owner of Earth is Our Home Environmental Solutions. He’s all about having healthy soils to have healthy food and a healthy world. I met Jim at a recent community event through West Central Initiative and learned about his passion for composting….but not your typical composting. Yep, today, we’re having what he calls, the poop talk. \"It's like baking cookies. You gotta get the recipe right. You gotta get the ingredients right. It breaks this material down from the ‘ew’ to topsoil.\" Jim Etzel If you want to get a hold of Jim, you can go to earthisourhome.net or call 218.252.3258.
