How StoneColdCavin Turned Real Farm Life Into Viral Content

Jan 8

In this Farm4Fun episode of the Farm4Profit Podcast, we’re joined by Cavin Malloy — an Eastern Iowa farmer from Williamsburg better known online as @stonecoldcavin.

If you’ve ever scrolled past a high-energy, wrestling-inspired farm video that made you laugh and nod your head in agreement, there’s a good chance it was Cavin. His content blends real-world farm life with humor, honesty, and Midwest grit — and that authenticity is exactly why his following keeps growing.

This conversation is part comedy, part real talk, and 100% unfiltered farm life.

From Eastern Iowa Roots to Online Reach

Cavin shares where he grew up, how farming shaped his early years, and what his operation looks like today. From row crops and cattle to equipment and custom work, his farm reflects the reality many Midwest producers live every day — busy, diverse, and constantly adapting.

We also talk about what he does differently than his neighbors and why he’s comfortable standing out, both in the field and online.

The Birth of “StoneColdCavin”

The StoneColdCavin persona didn’t start as a master plan — it evolved organically. Cavin walks us through:

His first viral moment
Why wrestling energy fits farm storytelling so well
How he balances comedy without losing credibility
Where education fits into entertaining content

It’s a candid look at how farm creators can be funny and meaningful without selling out their message.

Real Talk: Neighbors, Pet Peeves, and Purchases

No Farm4Fun episode is complete without honesty. Cavin opens up about:

What neighbors and locals really think about his online presence
His biggest farm pet peeves
The best and worst purchases he’s made on the farm
How he approaches rain days and “winter hours”
The real ROI of automation and technology on a working farm

These are the conversations farmers have privately — brought into the open.

Wrestling, Work Ethic, and What’s Next

Beyond farming and content creation, Cavin coaches youth wrestling — and the mindset carries straight into his operation. Discipline, resilience, and consistency aren’t just buzzwords; they’re how he approaches both farming and life.

We also ask the big question: What would he be doing if farming and content creation weren’t the path? His answer might surprise you.
