- I had an impromptu meeting with Marty Raney the other day while he was filming not too far from me in Alaska. I got some real insight into the man who helps people sort out difficult problems on their off grid homesteads for the Discovery Channel TV show Homestead Rescue.
Now in its eleventh season, he and his crew have helped over 100 homesteads get back on their feet by helping them work through essential projects.
Stick around for the whole interview to hear insights on what it really takes to make an off-grid homestead successful, AND- the surprising moment that stopped our interview. PLUS, a never-before-heard song from Marty Raney debuts RIGHT HERE!

After I retired from the Air Force, I returned home to my family's neglected 130 acre farm in SW Michigan (my Dad passed and nothing was done beyond keeping animals fed for 10 years). When I moved home in 2020, I found Homestead Rescue and you guys are the roadmap to my recovery plan (the solar kiln for the black walnut slabs is going to happen out here). I'm telling you, Misty is my hero!! When I'm slinging chainsaws and bush hogging the back 40, I think Misty would be proud of me because anything that needs to be fixed (short of a mechanical tear down, I can change oil/tires, do breaks but never tore apart an engine)... I got this! Is it hard? Hell yeah... but I'm 51 and I'm doing it. I love you and your family, Marty!
Congrats that’s awesome! 🎉
Kudos to you!! I'd love more than most anything to be fully homesteading
I rebuilt my first small block Checy engine when I was 15.
You'll do fine!
❤Right on! Rebuilt a hipo 289 at 18 and then the 4 speed top loader 3 or 4 times LOL A lot of stress but we get through it and learn.❤
😮This was an interview that became an excellent conversation.
I so enjoyed our time together. A lot of information was shared.
More so, a love and respect for one another.
Thank you, JESUS, for all you give us.
SE MICHIGAN
Love and prayers.
Marty Raney's kind heart is what makes the show! God bless the Raney's.
I agree. He has a heart of gold. Great kids too
The way you sat quietly while he composed himself. A beautiful moment of compassion.
Great interview Brooke. Your respect and admiration for Mr. Raney was apparent. Your interview style was respectful, and you actually allowed him to speak. Many interviewers tend to interrupt so often I find it distracting and disrespectful.
How old is he? Married? Great guy! I would if I could right now, two houses trying to move sell one. I would come to Alaska now, and be his house keeper, friend, partner.
The white cowboy hat is given to people at event Prince William and Kate. I will get back to you on that event.
It means Welcome. I think. I can't think of some one better to welcome people to Alaska!!
Всё обалденно👍✅🙂
I agree!! This is an awesome interview!!
@@sandrastevens2793Mr Raney has a beautiful wife, I believe her name is Molly, they've been together forever! They're great partners and have a beautiful family, children and grandchildren that live close, at least half the year, one of his daughters, and his son and their families, live the other half of the year in Hawaii!
Thank you he was easy to interview
I love Marty, Matt, and Misty. Kind, loving people.
Marty Raney is what all of us should aspire to be. 💪🙌🏻👏
he truly has a big heart
@@therealgirlinthewoods So do you
Love ❤️ the Rainey family! I always say, “ Wasn’t born here, but I got here as Quick As I Could!!”
lol that's great
This is Barry. Hello Brooke. The timing of this video is perfect. After a couple years of thinking about and looking for a piece of land I took the first step over the weekend and bought a 30 acre plot in the UP of Michigan. It’s a beautiful piece of property with a four acre clearing on it. No utilities on the property so it will be up to me to supply the water and whatever power we will need. Discovering and watching your channel and Dave’s channel over the years has really inspired me. Meeting you both at the Bushcraft Gathering lit another fire for me. Step one has been taken. Once I close on the property in a couple weeks I’ll be going up there to start the process of picking a spot to build the cabin. It’s very exciting indeed.
That's awesome Barry!!! Congrats!
@@therealgirlinthewoods , thank you. I might have a few question here and there if you don’t mind answering them in the future. You channel definitely covers a lot though when it comes to building a homestead. Take care for now.
I'm a Yooper born and raised. Beautiful half the year, harsh the rest (unless you love that sort of weather).
@@lauravictorious4670 , I’m fine with whatever weather is thrown at me.
So awesome! So glad for you sir!! Exciting!! ❤️
Marty is such a compassionate person! He and his family are so giving and I love watching!
One of those interviews u don’t ever want to end .
Dang. I was hanging on. Waiting for Marty to say what happened. Since he seemed sad (I thought), I felt bad. Then he told us! 👏👏👏 He and his family are such good people. God bless them.
❤️❤️
Love it...YeHoVaH....yes ah-main...am a messianic believer...nice to meet you....
@@kiwitraveller6451 - Ha ha! Yes. Nice to meet you too!
I knew his emotion was thankfulness and praise
Happy
Brooke, you are such a good kid, allowing Marty to have his "moment". Isn't he a fascinating guy? Love the show, his and yours.
YES.
Wow Brooke! This was amazing! What a Blessing to you and to us that you spoke with Marty Raney! Absolutely amazing! You are definetly along side of him! You are as accomplished as he is! The Both of you are Fabulous! and let's not forget Dave! ;)
OMGosh! ❤This was amazing! Thank you! Liz from Ke ptville, Ontario, Canada
so glad you enjoyed it :)
What an honor Brooke, I would have given anything to sit at that table with you & Marty…2 experts in the survival & off grid life!! He’s a beast, the stuff he can do and his drive is unbelievable. Raising 4 kids out in the middle nowhere Alaska turned him into what he is today…a legend. I soaked in his knowledge like I do your’s & Dave’s, what an awesome video Brooke, thank you!!
Oh yes dear sirs, Brooke IS A SUPERHERO 😆👏 I always tell her she’s my hero ! 😎💜 Also, what an amazing guest !! Loved it 🥰
What an incredible blessing and privilege to get a spontaneous interview!!! Touched my soul. So happy for your son. The beginning of an epic adventure. Best video I've seen in years! Thank you and Marty. What a joy. 🐾🙏🏻✌🏻
You can definitely see what a caring man he is❤❤
My 2 favorite homesteaders what an honor! The off grid knowledge you both possess is mind blowing. I’m dreaming…
Marty and his family are "good people" and they spread goodness. Great role models. The Only reality show I will still watch on TV. I think they are actually Real.
OMG!!!! Love Marty & his family. I hope they bring back another season of The Ramey Ranch!!! I hated to see them loose their home. But was excited to see what was to come with the new homestead. His wife is a beautiful soul & is just as hard of a worker as Marty. She got the beauty & the brains…😉🤣. Just goes to show everyone even an experienced professional can have la life altering emergency . As a former FF it broke my heart to see his live feed asking for help. Ohio was just to far away. 😢. After a fire is all said & done. Looking back at those families then realizing there wasn’t much left to save for them is a deflating feeling. By the grace of God every fire we had at least 1 item was found that survived. An elderly ladies Great Grandmother’s cross was in a box inside her closet. The bedroom walls were destroyed & the floor wasn’t far behind. She was crying after it was all said & done & that was the ONLY thing she cared about. We found that cross inside her closet in that box. It had some smoke damage but was in in one piece. You would have thought I just handed her.a million dollars when I gave that cross to her. Made me even more of a believe in the man above. One of my best memories of my FF years. Thanks for sharing this awesome interview Beth!! ❤❤.
Many called us crazy, and many said we wouldn't make it here... Yet, here we are still scooting along and working towards goals.
Many times that first step is not only a move forward, but also moving away from the negativity.
This was a fantastic interview. Love it! ❤
awesome thanks!
@@therealgirlinthewoods I just won't to be the one to say I love watching your RUclips videos
What an interesting conversation.
Thank you for introducing those of us that didn't know of Marty and Homestead Rescue.
Indeed! Like me! :)
And me. No network subscriptions here. Marty and Brook are wonderful. I just got lucky and stumbled upon this interview on You Tube.
Brook! Girl, I love you! What a great show.
I’m old but you inspired me at 63 to leave the suburbs. We have been on a neglected 38 acre pecan farm living in a log style house. It’s a mess. But we are so done with the neighborhood thing.
Is it hard? Can be.
Have we looked back? Nope
Gettin outside and bein happy.
You are the best!
I thank Marty, family and crew for helping many people along the way
My daddy always said when you’re poor you improvise and learn how to do everything. Brooke I took baths in a wash tub when I was at my grandmothers house where we went every weekend and holidays. No electricity,running water or indoor toilet but I loved that life more than any other time in my life and I’m 65. We were all happy and didn’t realize how poor we truly were.
This was so interesting and inspiring. Follow your dreams people make your life count. I am nearly 80 and was caught in the dreams of the 60’s if we knew what was coming would we really have done different. Turn I wish into I will for the future. The dreams of the pioneers seemed impossible but they did it and now we take their hard work and dreams for granted.
I remember Marty's shredded hands after one of his homestead rescue shows. I can't imagine how painful that was!
This was such a nice surprise ! I love Marty and his family on Homestead Rescue. Good to see how genuine he is in a casual interview. He's just that way on his show (but oftentimes louder). I totally agree with him; you are lovely, Brooke. Glad you got him to give you an interview. Looks like lots of your followers weren't familiar with him.
You must be joking....Who the f doesnt know who Marty is on this channel
Watched your sons video… he’s awesome ❤️ this was a great interview 😘
Thanks so much
IHi sweet lady. I really enjoyed your video with Marty Raney. A very soft spoken heart giving man. Stay safe my friend.
I've never seen his show, but what a decent, honest man. I'll be looking up that show.
Wow you and Marty just made my life better. I'm 69 1/2 years old and Thursday I'm going for some tests to find out if cancer has spread in my body. As you can see by my channel name I was going to start traveling and life happened. I have decided no matter what the outcome is I'm still gonna travel and video my travels and teach people how to cook in small spaces especially our veterans and our homeless there's no reason for them not to eat good food in small spaces instead of buying cheap take out food so if I pass away on a lonely road somewhere by myself fine I don't know if I have one year or six months or 20 more years I just wanna find out what I'm looking at and I will make my decision but you guys hit the nail straight on the head Just do the Darn Thing . Thank you again keep the great videos coming. God bless you and Marty and all your families and remember stay safe stay strong stay healthy God bless and enjoy life,✌👏🍳🎅🚌👍
Never stop travelling no matter what the journey or destination. Life really is what you make it and try not to stress during these hurry up and wait cancer games and just do what Brooke says, don’t forget to, “Get Outside and Get Happy.” It always puts things in perspective.
God Bless you on your journey from an off grid, Healthcare gal in Eastern Canada. You got this. 🙏❤️👋
@@MickDickerson thank you for your words of encouragement God bless. Oh I'm a fighter cancer is not gonna Take Me Out I'll go when the good Lord takes me home but it's not gonna be because of a stupid disease it's gonna be old old old age God bless✌👏👍
Hang in there Chef Santa…..hoping and praying for a good outcome or less treatment. 🇨🇦💕
Everything will be find and you'll be back in no time! Best wishes
Prayers for you. I am almost 64, female, never get sick but have been twice in the last 2 years. Kinda scary and worse may be coming cuz of age. So I am uping my supplements and healthy food to try to slow it down. I just bought a old motorhome and plan on traveling, GOD willing, but we never know do we😂
Love this Man's show !!!!! big hearted and so kind
I just found your youtube channel via your husband's. I must thank you for talking about the real world of how to use resources. I was taught to repurpose and reuse. It's so wonderful to see how you buy things at the Restore, thrift shops, etc. and only buy items when you must. I hope that a lot of younger people are subscribed and learn to live without credit and using what they have access to. Thanks, too, for praying before meals and praying for others. Also, I can't wait to find our more about Marty Raney. Just a side note. When I was teaching 1st grade, my students and I always buried the word can't. It wasn't a word used in the classroom. Thanks again.
The off-grid layer--that's where our family is working on going to. "If a rut gets deep enough it resembles a grave." wow Love and appreciate both of you and your shared wisdom.
Wow! So impressive! We watch every show this man does! So inspiring! So much so, we bought 36 acres out in the country in tx about 3 years ago. It’s not really remote like you all do, but it’s ours, and we are working to make it a self sustainable place for us. I got cancer and had to do chemo/radiation, and my legs stopped working-in the middle of trying to start this journey. I am in a wheelchair right now, but cancer is gone and I am relearning how to walk. Moving to our land permanently in 3 weeks! Finally!
Tenacity matters. In my early years I used to manually backfill a mile of potatoes with a garden rake. 5500'. I have 1940s equipment now. Hang in there.. .. and if not its ypir destiny. Embrace life in all it's form..
Oh my gosh! My two favorite people to watch!!!! Together, talking!!! ❤️❤️❤️
How wild... I'd recently had thoughts about the Raneys and find out here they were just out this way. It'd been really neat to have met them.
Brooke, I have been watching your husbands RUclips channel longer than I have yours (you have so many playlists!) but at 70 I am so inspired by you. Thanks for being you! Keep on keeping on!
It doesn’t get any better than a Whipple and a Rainey in the same video! Love both of you guys, thanks for this video! Two of the best out there! Great interview! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Exactly!
Oh Brooke...what a great interview!!!! THNX so much to you AND Marty!
Beautiful heart. Bless him
Wow, Brooke - you didn't edit him or push him to speak when he was so choked up at around the 10 minute mark. You are both such amazing influences on me. Thank you for getting this interview.
EXCELLENT.
Thanks for watching!
@@therealgirlinthewoods Thank you for posting this young lady
Helping others is the greatest medicine to keep discouragement at bay!
It is Blood ,Sweat and NO Fears,Love you guy’s,My kind of People
Mr Raney reminds me of a hard shell candy with a soft center ❤
Marty Raney is the real deal. What a great opportunity to not only meet, but have a one on one conversation with him. Totally genuine, totally authentic....Inspirational, Motivational and Transformational to his viewers and those he has helped by making their Homestead dream a reality. Kudos to you for getting him to come onto your channel...a real feather in your cap🪶👍👌⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Love you Marty & family. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤
This is such rich wisdom. I am so grateful. 💕🙏🏼 Lord give us all the courage to go after our dream.
One of your best interviews ever love it. Great job Brooke
Glad you enjoyed it
Love Marty Missy Matt and their show!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love watching the entire Raney family. All the shows he is in. Ok the truck in the river is one of his finest.
This was one of the greatest interviews I've ever had the privilege to watch on the great "interweb." LOL I love Marty Rainey not so much for what he does as I do for the man that he is. He has all the qualities I feel any real man should possess in this screwed up societal circus we find ourselves a part of in 2023. Thank you so very much for sharing it with us!! Love LOVE, LOVEEEE your channel and hold you in very high esteem the way I do Marty! God blesses those unafraid to work hard and stand for right. You both are wonderful examples of those qualities! ❤❤ Blessings
Wow, Brooke! That was great!! You guys really covered a lot of ground. Very, very interesting!
He is such a wonderful man …. the family is so compassionate… I never miss there show … so much respect for all of them❤️
Real people, real hearts!❤❤❤❤❤
The awesome thing about approaching this life style is, even if u know nothing, it's exactly the same as "on the job training".
Any one of us can become quite proficient at pretty much anything after six months or less, by simply learning on the job.
Now-a-days with books, internet, family, or friends, there's absolutely no excuses for not going for it.
Such a great example u r. 👍
So cool to see Marty interviewed! And you really are a great interviewer!
Oh wow, I was not expecting this. Thank you, Brook. Thank you, Marty I feel so blessed.
I love Marty, Matt and Misty!
I grew up on a small homestead, didn't pay much attention to what my Daddy was trying to teach me. Now at age 54 I am trying to relearn it all and we are planning on moving from the city to a small homestead. I learn so much from thr Raney family and channels like this. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Wonderful, such inspiring thoughts and words for all people to take to heart.❤
Your so inspiring to listen to, even if you already know it, sometimes you need to hear it again to affirm it in your mind.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you so much.😊
Blessings to you and him and your families for your kindness in sharing this with us All. 🙏 🕊💜♥️🌹
Thank you so much!
Hell yes!! My great uncle moved to Alaska many yrs ago. He just graduated from school, were talking now it's been over a hundred yrs ago. He lived to be 100! !! I admire the hardworking way of life people have there. I could live alone and never see another human!
Thank you for sharing.. what a guy! I thought I was the only one who remembered him first from seeing him on that competition show years ago! : )
Thanks for sharing. I've never heard of the guy or the show. I cut the cord 13 years ago and only have over the air TV, maybe I'll see reruns in a few years.
Living in the woods is the best. Get outside folks! I'm off to the garden. Peace!
Brooke your grace for him in that interview brought me to tears during that story… well done to sit still in that moment. Beautiful both of you!
Marty is a favorite around here! He has such a kind heart. What a blessing to see him here! Great interview. Thank you!! ❤
Great interview Brooke! I was so excited to see who your guest was!😁
Love the Raineys! How awesome was that?!!! ❤
Great interview and a much needed surprise.
I can’t believe you ran in to him! One of my all time favorite’s!!! This was amazing!!! Thanks!!!😊
This man is soooo sweet! God Bless him.
This was just so great to watch two people talk about something that both people love so much
Love Homestead Rescue. One of the few shows on TV worth watching along with Alone 👍
Next, you're going to tell us he's your uncle and you learned everything from him, right? I'm just kidding. But it sounds like you two came from the same kin that's been living off the grid for the last 200 hundred years or more. You are both amazing people. Your interview was amazing, too. I really appreciate how you let him talk when he could and how you paused when he couldn't, such awesome respect. May God continue to bless you both.
Wow! I love the Homestead Rescue program. What a great interview and discussion. Nice job. I also love your channel Brooke.
Thank you for this, I've had this bee in my bonnet for a long time to get away from it all and move to freedom. The thoughts from both of you gave far more than you realise.
Never seen the show. Marty seems like a cool guy. I'll check it out.
Wow! What a powerful interview! Y'all have clearly connected energy with each other, alike souls.
Such an AWESOME INTERVIEW BROOK! I've been a subscriber for years, always will be bc YOUR MY HERO! YOUR AN AMAZING, STRONG WOMAN WITH A BEAUTIFUL SOUL! Sorry, I have to admit, I don't watch as much as I used to. Dont have enough time but I will!! Thank you for everthing you do & who you are!! Your doing Gods & Jesus's work! May God bless you & your family! Love & Prayers sweet Brook! Your helping many- we cant thank you enough!! Sincerely, Caroline from Orange County, CA ( I wish my family would move back to where Im originally from, West Virginia & the Ohio Valley! I can't convince thenm yet just bc of the snow ( & its not that bad) At 65 years of age, I realize we wont be able to afford living in CA much longer. My husband is still working at 66 yrs young & still wont retire, works extremely hard! I retired at 50 yrs due to my bad back & health issues but Im blessed & strong willed! I just keep praying my 4 grown sons will all movewith us back east bc we have family land & they could use our help. You inspire me, thank you Brook, honey! Your great, a beautiful soul & person! Never stop what your doing!! ❤🙏❤️
I am in the beginning stages of my journey to homesteading. I feel every word that you say. As you take that first step and you begin your journey and you begin to build your dreams, you learn to appreciate every little step you take. Hauling water, keeping a generator running, taking care of animals…. All of it has to be intentional.
I’ve been waiting for the new homestead rescue episodes to begin! Love the show!
I sold all the property that I owned to get off grid and continue to put it together 2 years later. I bought barn looking sheds to turn into cabins. But first off of the top, I put in a well on virgin land. I do have to be in my home town often due to other responsibilities, but I’m happiest on my wooded property in a shed to cabin! Fear and the love of material possessions is what stop most. Great show! ❤️🙏
Brooke, a great interview with Marty. I’ve lived thru 80 Christmases, which just blows me away. My dream still, is to sit down amongst pine trees, listen to the wind thru the needles, and say ‘this is mine’. Someday.
One of the best interviews I have seen, keep safe both of you
What a wonderful human full of passion, love and emotion. His response to her need and the miracle that occured was refreshingly evident of his love.
Mr Raney is a very humble person
The Raney Family are all such badasses. It really is surprisingly refreshing to watch a show with a man as genuinely masculine as Marty, and to gain such respect for him, and to see him so moved by emotion and by the needs of others. I'm sure he's got his *stuff* and isn't perfect or anything, but the percentage of who and what he genuinely *is,* which we can respect about him is unusually high. I carry a similar respect for you, Brooke. I was very impressed your performance, mindset, and approach on Alone.
Loved your show Mr. Taney,hope your family is all doing well…..Thanks for your passion!
What a great interview. He’s such a great man. You two had so much in common. Thank you so much for that
Great show Brooke love Marty and family they do so much for people
Love to watch his family on homestead rescue!!
Well that was great!! Watched your sons vid earlier. He’s so funny. And a hard worker like his folks.
What an amazing interview......As star struck as you were with him, he is certainly a fan of yours now too......I bet I see you and Dave on Homestead Rescue someday
What an amazing interview. Thank you!
I really enjoyed your chat with Marty. Both of your video shows are part of my daily routine. ❣️
OMG❣️Love Marty and his entire family❣️🙏🏼💙💁🏻🪶🦉All Inspiring and Loving People🙏🏼💁🏻
Very cool interview Brooke! Marty is our modern day Gandalf the White. So wise! He must have so many stories. Thanks for sharing this with us!!❤️
What a surprise to see you interviewing Marty! Love his show and you can see he really cares about the people he helps. Great score!
Such a great interview Brook! Marty is a hero in my book . The interview seemingly turned into a round table conversation. The 2 of you have so much in common. So cool to see Marty light up when talking about the things that have inspired him . I wasn't surprised when he wanted to take you with him. I could tell he was as impressed with you as we all are of him. Thanks Brook for this it made my day.
I've scrolled past this video multiple times now. I finally watched it. That is my homestead that Marty is referring to. We had just finished filming the day before. The fact that he shared in our emotions is so heartwarming. He is so sincere and genuine just as the rest of the family is. My kids and I are forever grateful to them ❤❤❤❤
That’s so awesome 👏
