Throughout his career, veteran Farm Equipment magazine editor Mike Lessiter has been collecting stories and anecdotes on the origins of various agribusinesses.

With a desire to permanently document the history, and personal trials, tribulations and successes of the family-run American farm equipment manufacturer, Lessiter’s compilation of long-form interviews with living legends is being released in brand-new podcast series, debuting January 2018.

To understand the scope of the in-depth project across numerous areas of the country, and his motivations for telling these stories, Managing Editor Kim Schmidt sat for a quick cup of coffee with Lessiter for a few words introducing the new series, which is sponsored by GKN Off-Highway Powertrain.

Farm Equpment's "How We Did It" podcast series is brought to you by GKN Off-Highway Powertrain.
