Katie Van Slyke - Katching Up With Katie

Life has been BUSY lately, but we're finally sitting down for another Katching Up With Katie! 💕 My husband is on the podcast today, and we're catching up on everything from his Canada bear hunt to farm projects, Dungeons & Dragons, future dreams for Running Springs, and answering some of your funniest questions.We talk about what life has really been like behind the scenes, how our farm and business have grown over the years, what it's like balancing social media with real life, and even put Jonathan to the test to see how many horses he can name under pressure!I always love these slower, more personal episodes because they give us a chance to catch up beyond the horses and foals. Thank you all for supporting our little corner of the internet and making this community so special. 🐴💕Let us know in the comments what questions you'd like us to answer in a future episode and if you're actually on board with the whole Ham and Cheese idea.Chapters:00:00 Welcome Back00:54 New Podcast Studio Update02:54 Dungeons & Dragons07:59 Q&A with Jonathan08:53 Jonathan's Canada Bear Hunt14:25 Katies Extreme Fear17:19 Ham & Cheese, Farm Projects & Building Running Springs31:04 10 Years Together, Social Media & Growing the Business37:36 Horse Name Challenge51:28 Wrapping Up#HorseVlog #FarmLife #Equestrian #KatchingUpWithKatie #HorseFarm▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads==========================================================▶▶▶Connect With Me!Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/katievanslyke/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@katievanslykeFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/katievanslyke96Snapchat - https://snapchat.com/t/ARF7dCaESubmit your videos - submissions.kvsreacts@gmail.comLinks to products and brands I use daily!Tribute Horse Feed: https://tributeequinenutrition.comdac Horse Supplements: https://www.feeddac.com/product-category/equine/Amazon Storefront: https://amzn.to/4q5SSRyHey y'all, I'm Katie!

Vacation recap time. 🌴✨ I’m finally back and catching y’all up on Antigua (and the whole “how do you even say it?” debate), our very questionable fishing excursion, and why I’m not sure all-inclusives are really for me.We’re also talking spa days, couples massages, facials, and the funniest parts of traveling with other people around you… including some truly unhinged plane stories. 😅Then Nate catches us up on his trip back home to Arkansas, testing Starlink on the road, and a Christmas prank that still makes me laugh.If you watched the KVS Christmas special, you’ll definitely want to hear the behind-the-scenes “couple weeks recap” right after. 🎄Subscribe for more episodes of Katching Up With Katie, and tell us what you want us to talk about for the last episode of 2025!Chapters00:00 Intro / Welcome back00:10 Vacations and travel catch-up06:30 Abigail and I had couples massages14:40 I was food shamed20:30 Interesting plane ride34:12 Nate’s trip48:00 That’s all folks!Watch more: https://www.youtube.com/@katievanslykelifeFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katievanslyke #katievanslyke #farm #horses #countrylife #familyfriendly▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads ===================================================================▶▶▶Connect With Me!

We accidentally create a new life goal today and it is a big one. A future BOTH (Because Of The Horses) fundraiser event complete with gowns, cowboy hats, a red carpet moment and maybe even a trumpet announcement at the top of the stairs. It gets dramatic fast in the best way.We also catch up on real ranch life. Taz the goat daddy is back to visit Blossom, Honey and Bee. We talk through foaling season plans and how we want to level up the content this year. And then there is the wildest update from Blue Bell. She gave us 79 oocytes in one aspiration which is almost unheard of. We break down what that means and what comes next.There is cozy barn energy, winter vibes, plenty of laughing and of course some courtroom teasing because that saga is still coming. Wigs may already be ordered. Maybe.Let me know in the commentsChapters:00:00 Welcome 02:22 Gala?? 08:10 I want to host a gala 14:15 Post Malone's horse 18:00 Bye bye caramel apple treats19:00 Fan Videos21:30 Cattle Breeding22:00 How to Oocytes work?26:00 What's Coming Up? 💬 What should our future gala support💬 What foaling season content do you want more of this year👇 Helpful links🎄 Christmas merch ornaments and more: katievanslyke.net👻 Snapchat: katievanslyke96Thanks for hanging out with us.

The Farmer’s Almanac said we were in for a rough winter, and somehow that turned into weaning babies, sending Noelle off to her new home, and starting a full-blown grandma hobby night. Oh, and Kennedy decided to show off with nine embryos this week, so it’s safe to say things are a little chaotic around here. 😅Between breeding updates, emotional goodbyes, and my questionable blue-light glasses choices, this week’s episode has a bit of everything. We’re talking Erlene, Sophie, Kennedy, Noelle, cozy barn life, and some late-night crafting chaos while planning for the World Show.If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like trying to balance horse breeding, farm life, and everyday mayhem, welcome back to Katching Up With Katie.🛍️ http://katievanslyke.netChapters00:00 Intro 00:18 Why I Almost Had a Heart Attack 06:22 ICSI 10:00 The Horse Whisperer 14:00 Should We Write a Song? 19:25 Knitting Hobby with Dani 27:00 World Show is Coming Up! #KatchingUpWithKatie #FarmLife #CountryVlog #KatieVanSlyke #HorseVlog #RanchLife▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads===================================================================▶▶▶Connect With Me!Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/katievanslyke/Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@katievanslykeFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/katievanslyke96Snapchat - https://snapchat.com/t/ARF7dCaESubmit your videos - submissions.kvsreacts@gmail.comAffiliate links:Horse Feed: https://tributeequinenutrition.comAmazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/influencer-55302a79Hey y'all, I'm Katie!
