Like a Farmer

Season 4 is here! Actor Chad Michael Murray joins the Like A Farmer Podcast for a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred conversation that spans Hollywood, broken noses, and his blue-collar Buffalo roots. Chad and Pat kick things off with 2026 resolutions, before Chad reflects on his lifelong Buffalo Bills fandom, including 2026 Super Bowl aspirations. He opens up about tattoos, getting jumped at a Burger King, a nose job, and a near-death experience at 15 that changed everything. Chad breaks down how he landed Freaky Friday, working with Jamie Lee Curtis, Hilary Duff, and Paris Hilton, and what it was like stepping into pop-culture history with One Tree Hill, Gilmore Girls, Dawson’s Creek, MTV, and his earliest acting gigs. He also reveals the movie role he really wanted but didn’t get, behind-the-scenes One Tree Hill stories, and his personal Mount Rushmore of actors, including how Ed Norton inspired him to pursue acting. Subscribe and leave a review to support the show! Chapters:(0:00) – Welcome Chad Michael Murray! (1:30) – 2026 Resolutions with Chad and Pat (8:00) – Growing up in Buffalo & the Blue-Collar Life (10:15) – Tattoos, Jumped at a Burger King & a Nose Job (18:00) – How Chad Landed “Freaky Friday” (19:15) – Buffalo Bills Fandom and Super Bowl Aspirations (25:45) – “Cut the Line” Presented by CASE KNIVES (28:00) – How Ed Norton Made Chad Want to be an Actor (31:30) – Near-Death Experience at 15 (35:30) – First Acting Gigs and MTV (38:00) – Gilmore Girls, Dawson’s Creek, and One Tree Hill (43:00) – Freakier Friday and Jamie Lee Curtis (47:30) – Working with Hilary Duff, Paris Hilton (49:15) – “Give ‘Em the Boot” Presented by TECOVAS (54:00) – What Movie Did Chad Really Want but Did Not Get (56:45) – Behind the Scenes Stories from One Tree Hill (1:02:30) – Chad’s Mount Rushmore of Actors (1:13:15) – A.I. in Movies and Television (1:18:00) – Chad’s Daughter’s Upcoming Movie (1:21:30) – Chad and Pat Do a Scene (1:24:30) – What’s Next for Chad Michael Murray? Shop Like a Farmer merch at https://shop.agamericamedia.com/ Follow along:IG: https://www.instagram.com/likeafarmerpodcast/FB: https://facebook.com/likeafarmerTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@likeafarmerpodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/likeafarmer_     About Like A Farmer:Like a Farmer is a podcast and video series that spotlights accomplished individuals from diverse industries and their inspiring stories of overcoming adversity and achieving success.

We’re celebrating a huge milestone (Episode 100!) and we couldn’t think of a better guest to mark the moment than country music powerhouse Riley Green. From small-town roots to sold-out shows, Riley joins us for a wide-ranging conversation on what it really takes to build a lasting career in country music, without losing who you are along the way. We dive into the rise of Riley Green, the moments that still feel unreal, and the many lanes he’s carving out beyond music. From stepping into the acting world, to living out his athlete dreams by hitting dingers at MLB parks, to launching his bourbon brand The Duck Club, Riley proves he’s more than just a hitmaker. Riley shares unforgettable “pinch me” moments with Pat McAfee and Jimmy Fallon, his deep appreciation for CASE KNIVES, and how songs like “You Look Like You Love Me” were created. We also talk songwriting, artists catching his eye, sliding in the DMs, and why home keeps him grounded no matter how big things get. Plus, Riley steps into the hot seat for Give ‘Em the Boot presented by TECOVAS, steps into the shoes of a podcast host, and lays out what 2026 has in store.Subscribe and leave a review to support the show! Chapters:(0:00) – Welcome Riley Green for Episode #100! (3:00) – The Rise of Riley Green (4:30) – The Actor: What’s on the Horizon? (6:30) – The Athlete: Hitting Dingers at MLB parks (9:05) – The Bourbon Maker: The Duck Club (12:25) – Pinch Me Moments with Pat McAfee and Jimmy Fallon (14:25) – Riley Loves Him Some CASE KNIVES (14:50) – Give ‘Em the Boot Presented by TECOVAS (19:55) – "You Look Like You Love Me" (24:25) – The Art of Songwriting and Storytelling (27:25) – Up-and-Coming Artists Catching Riley’s Eye (29:50) – Braid Paisley Set the Tone (33:10) – Home is Humbling (36:25) – Riley’s the Host Now (42:25) – Riley Green's Duck Blind (45:10) – The 2026 Plan Shop Like a Farmer merch at https://shop.agamericamedia.com/ Follow along:IG: https://www.instagram.com/likeafarmerpodcast/FB: https://facebook.com/likeafarmerTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@likeafarmerpodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/likeafarmer_     About Like A Farmer:Like a Farmer is a podcast and video series that spotlights accomplished individuals from diverse industries and their inspiring stories of overcoming adversity and achieving success.
