Poaching Employees, Election Predictions, & Feminists

The Briefcase & The Barn is hosted by two Dutch Reformed misfits who’ve spent most of their lives in the church’s side-eye.

Kyle Van Ruitenburg is the PK and connections guy who’s been around the world (and yes—straight off the boat). Gary Baars is the money guy who’s been around just about every farm and cow.

Together, they have blunt, funny, real talk about business, life, faith, culture, and the stuff Christians usually don't talk about.

Recorded on the west coast of Canada in Chilliwack, BC.

New episodes every Wednesday at 5 am PST.

Created & produced by The Furiously Curious Company.

In this episode of The Briefcase and the Barn, Kyle and Gary talk about the challenges of hiring in small towns and whether it’s okay to hire someone already working elsewhere. They also dig into Jesus’ emotions from The Heart of Christ—how He felt perfect compassion and anger, and what that means for us today. It’s a real and honest look at leadership, faith, and everyday decisions. They reflect on how personal experience shapes our view of God and emotional responses.
