Wilson & Ashley
Unfiltered. Unexpected. Unapologetically Honest.
Welcome to The Wilson & Ashley Podcast — where no farming topic is off limits. But this isn't just a farming podcast...
Broadcast from their unique mobile studio, Rebecca Wilson, a sheep and arable farmer from Yorkshire and Charlotte Ashley, a dairy farmer from Cumbria, bring you conversations around food, farming and rural life that are guaranteed to get heads turning.
Inspired by what’s trending — from recent articles to viral videos — each episode blends reality, farming, and pop culture in equal measure.
With the straight talking approach that followers have come to know and love from these two women in agriculture, conversations are honest, hilarious and real - like voice notes between two friends who aren't afraid to say what everyone else is thinking.
Drawing on their own farming knowledge along with voice notes from friends, listeners of the podcast and industry experts, they're bringing a new perspective on rural life.
Whether you're a full time farmer, never set foot on a farm or fall somewhere in between, we're pleased to have you on board!

You two are great and loving the podcasts and this new one about AI but I don’t think it’s AI that’s stealing jobs ok possibly office jobs but more the integration of new technologies and AI if you look back to 1990 to early 2000 a dairy farm your size I think would of had 4-8 people working on it but now can work with 2 and with better heard health and the more integrating of AI to the newest technology the better the heard health will get but I don’t think you will ever get below the two people need. This is only my opinion as I’m not a farmer. Keep up the great work Chris
