Have you ever missed an episode of the show, or wanted to download that one in particular you just loved - without paying for an entire season on DVD? iTunes makes it easier than ever to get your LPBW fix! You can download any episode you want, starting with the first season, for just $1.99 a show.
There are a few that aren’t available, such as the “Lost Episodes” aired during Season 3, and the specials at the end of Season 1 where the family looked back on the previous season and summarized their favorite memories. The regular season episodes are all there though. You can even watch a small preview of each show to help refresh your memory of what was shown on that episode. We have updated our episode guide with a link to the iTunes store for each show.
Also available for free, are several of “Matt’s Chats” video podcasts where he interviews other little people that have inspired him. Among the interviews are Chris Rutte of the LPO about teasing, psychiatrist and Hollywood actress Merideth Eaton, and R. Ernie Lee about the challenges little people face when they decide to become parents. You can download all of the podcasts here.
If you don’t have iTunes installed, you can download it here. Once you have it installed, clicking on any of the iTunes links will automatically open the iTunes store for that item. Happy downloading

Yes, you read that headline correct. For $8.00 + shipping, you can own a small piece of Roloff Farms. Just fill out the order form, and they will send you a jar full of dirt. But not just any old jar of dirt - just look at a few of the possible uses, as listed on the jar’s packaging:
• Use sparingly as an extra treat for your indoor house plants.
• Sprinkle some in your yard to inspire it with a little “country attitude”.
• Put some in the kitty box. Excellent for cats who don’t get outdoors.
• Rub some on your clothes for that “I just worked in the garden” feeling.
• Make a mud pie, “YUM!”
• Great gift idea for city folk.
Matt has always seemed like a great salesman on the show, but this just seals the deal. If he can convince people to pay money for dirt … well, that speaks for itself. I guess it’s kind of a neat souvenir if you’re a big fan of the show, but I wish the Roloffs would sign each jar or something.
