Podcast Addict13 years agoJillIncredibly cozy podcast about restarting a family farm and reconnecting with roots.
Podcast Addict54 years agoPeanutVonStrudel- Well done :)
Everything Definitely Human do is brilliant, and this is no different, despite its different subject matter. Good wholesome listening. Charlie’s mum is particularly awesome :)

United Kingdom4 years ago - Just so peaceful
I’m a Definitely Human fan anyway and I always love checking out any new podcasts you lot make, but Back to Earth especially is right up my alley. It’s reminiscent of Clarkson’s Farm but more genuine, and I’m basically aching with jealousy that I’m not in Devon right now on my own farm…
Especially fond of the chicken updates, and Charlie’s mum is a star!
Apple Podcasts5AwesomeAnonymous 99<3United Kingdom4 years ago - Exactly what we need right now!
I just love how informative, real and natural each episode is, it really makes you feel you were there, back to earth with them. It’s peaceful and absolutely delightful to listen to. It’s like you got hooked on a book and can’t wait to find out what it brings in the next chapter. Highly recommend!
Apple Podcasts5zjhhatethisappUnited Kingdom4 years ago - Wholesome content for your ears

Italy4 years ago - So well curated!
I have really enjoyed this podcast not only for its unique messaging and bold statement that “going back to the roots” can very exciting too but especially for how well it is cut, edited and curated together. There are many podcasts out there that state “the spontaneous chatting” but you can tell Charlie
Apple Podcasts5Simon Schmidt x OWOIUnited Kingdom4 years ago - Fun and Soothing
Just the thing you’re looking for if you want a real life story about wonderful people to root (heh) for. It’s beatifically produced and the story is one that sticks with you. Always looking forward to the next episode!

Apple Podcasts5aaaaaaaam9United Kingdom4 years ago - Brilliant
This podcast brought me back to life, cured my acne, cleared my debts and titillated my tastebuds.
Apple Podcasts5AnastasiaDuckUnited Kingdom4 years ago - Incredible
Having left the London life myself - for Taiwan - which actually as a country I’d say is countryside, I feel embellished by this nostalgic time I spent in my loving UK.
Great work guys!
Apple Podcasts5ablyszakUnited Kingdom4 years ago - Fantastic podcast
