The Bean Scene is a monthly podcast hosted by Maxwell Schaeffer that goes beyond the headlines to find the stories worth telling—the farmers, thinkers and emerging voices shaping the future of Iowa’s soybean industry. Every episode blends personal storytelling with timely industry insights. Join us to explore where Iowa soy meets life. Expect candid conversations with farmers creating real on-farm solutions, leaders making an impact across the soybean industry and voices you haven't heard yet. Whether you're a farmer, an ag professional or just someone curious about where food, fuel and innovation come from—there's something here for you. The Bean Scene is proudly brought to you by the Iowa Soybean Association and the soybean checkoff, with new episodes dropping the first Tuesday of every month.
