Land headlines may say “wild,” but the on-the-ground story is sharper: focused buyers, resilient prices on the right tracts, and real opportunity in mixed-use and grassland parcels. We unpack the three pillars driving value—farm profitability, interest rates, and safety nets—then dig into why “land is local” still explains so much of what clears at auction. Attendance may be thinner than last year, yet prime quarters near existing operations continue to command strength, especially where soils, access, and water line up.We also trace the season's format shift. Lakota's live room popped, Devils Lake went heavy online, and harvest convenience kept producers bidding from the cab. You'll hear when we choose live high-bidder's choice versus timed online, how buyer profiles influence results, and why clear parceling, fencing status, water sources, and drone footage help sellers earn trust and bidders move fast. On the ground, grassland remains a bright spot as livestock values hold firm across western North Dakota and eastern Montana—where contiguous pasture, reliable water, strong fences, and maintained roads are the real currency.Then we map the fall slate: Jamestown's multi-parcel cropland, Emmons County's contiguous grass, western ND pheasant-country tracts, and a standout 1,763-acre Cass County offering stretching Castleton to Wheatland. High PI soils and development shadow along Highways 10 and 18 create long-hold optionality, while additional parcels sit near the ethanol plant and along the interstate for future flexibility. Add a 2,500-acre Slope–Bowman package with river-bottom trees on Little Beaver Creek, and recreational and grazing value intersect in rare ways.Looking to engage, learn, or bid?

This week we discuss Bill Mastro, who helped build the multi-million dollar industry of sports memorabilia trading with his auction site Mastro Auctions. However, he also helped to build the massive corruption that lurked behind these sites by cheating the buyers and hawking fake merchandise before eventually striking out.

This week, from horse to firearm auctions, we navigate keeping the peace with our spouses afterwards. Plus share updates on hunting mishaps, how Anti-Hunters has wildlife conservation still winning, and record-breaking catches with unexpected outcomes. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News!   From Firearms to Horse Sales: Navigating Auctions (and Marriage) with Strategy When Auctions Are a Way of Life — and Marriage Is a Partnership Recently, while driving to a horse sale that we were working at, my husband Tigger turned and asked me, “So... are you getting a bidder number today?” I smiled and responded with a firm, “Yes, and glad we've now had that discussion.” Translation? I'm buying something, and we're not arguing about it. Truth is, when you've been around livestock, auctions, and rural life as long as we have, these conversations become part of your auction day ritual. What Tigger also knows is that I don't buy just to buy. I invest — whether it's a colt, a saddle, or yes, even a rifle. If something is going to eat feed, take up stall space, or use up a gun safe room, it better bring value, joy, or a decent return one day. And let me tell you, this particular sale day delivered a little more excitement than expected... The Time I Bid Against My Husband Without Him Knowing So, there we were at the horse sale. Tigger was busy representing another ranch, completely unaware that his lovely wife(BEC) was quietly (but confidently) bidding against him from the other side of the ring. The auctioneer knew. The ringmen knew. Heck, the crowd knew — and they were loving it. Then came the big moment: Auctioneer: “SOLD!” Me, grinning: “I love you, Tigger!” That's when the place erupted in laughter. And to his credit, Tigger took it like a champ. Was he thrilled I'd just dropped cash on a horse we hadn't even discussed? Maybe not. But did he respect my judgment? Absolutely. And that's what makes our auction adventures work: mutual respect, financial boundaries, and open communication. Meet our newest addition, a 2025 AQHA registered Bay Roan filly purchased from the Froelich Legacy Quarter Horse Sale that we know call "Denali". Her name comes from not just her pedigree but also as this was the year I visited Denali National Park in Alaska!   Planning for Firearm Auctions — and Keeping the Spouse Happy While livestock sales are a regular part of our lives, firearm auctions are another exciting (and tempting) avenue we both enjoy. But before we register, load up the trailer, or open the gun safe, we always have a talk: What do our finances look like right now? Do we have room in the safe (or barn / pasture)? Is this an impulse buy or an investment piece? What are the long-term costs — time, maintenance, upkeep? Could this have resale value or serve a future purpose? These conversations aren't about permission — they're about teamwork and transparency. When you're in a relationship where big purchases are common — whether horses, hay, or handguns — keeping the lines of communication open keeps the peace (and the budget balanced). Upcoming Firearm Auctions You Don't Want to Miss For all our fellow auction-goers, collectors, and Second Amendment supporters out there — mark your calendars! Wolff Auctioneers Firearm Auctions (with Live & Online Bidding): October 25, 2025 — Featuring 150+ rifles and pistols November 1, 2025 — Another 150+ rifle showcase Visit WolffAuctioneers.com for details, catalogs, and to register for online live bidding. Whether you're looking for collectible firearms, hunting gear, or just something to pass down to the grandkids - these auctions are the real deal. Final Thoughts: Respect, Strategy, and Shared Adventures Auction days are more than just sales — they're events. They're part of the lifestyle we love. But they can also become points of tension if you're not careful. If there's one thing I've learned, it's this: "Bidding is fun. Buying is thrilling. But mutual respect is what keeps the relationship strong." Whether I'm bidding on a gelding or Tigger's eyeing a vintage Winchester, we know what matters most: being a team, backing each other up, and being just a little competitive — even if I do yell “I love you” after I outbid him. Tragic Lightning Strike Kills Two Missing Elk Hunters in Colorado Wilderness Two young elk hunters who went missing during a trip in southern Colorado were tragically killed by a lightning strike, according to the county coroner. Andrew Porter and Ian Stasko, both 25, were found dead after a six-day search near the Rio de Los Pinos Trailhead in the Rio Grande National Forest. Porter's fiancé, Bridget Murphy, confirmed on Facebook that the men were hit indirectly—likely by a ground strike nearby—and died instantly. No burn marks were found on their bodies, but the lightning's massive voltage was enough to be fatal from a short distance. The two hunters had returned to the area for a quick evening hunt before storms moved in, leaving their gear locked in the car. Their last known location pinged on Sept. 11, and they were officially reported missing the next day. The search involved hundreds of volunteers and multiple agencies and came to a heartbreaking end on Thursday when their bodies were located about two miles from the trailhead. Murphy honored Porter as an experienced outdoorsman who simply "was in the wrong spot at the wrong time." Autopsies are pending, but officials confirm nature's raw power played a devastating role in this tragedy. Lightning strikes to humans are rare, but powerful. A typical lightning flash is about 300 million volts, according to the National Weather Service; in comparison, most household currents are 120 volts. Reference: https://www.outdoorlife.com/survival/lighting-strike-kills-elk-hunters-colorado/ Florida Bear Hunt Lottery Sees Massive Anti-Hunter Interference, But Conservation Still Wins According to Outdoor Life, a massive number of people — over 163,000 — applied for just 172 bear hunting tags in Florida's upcoming black bear hunt, but not all applicants were hunters. A significant chunk of those applications came from anti-hunting activists trying to game the system and block lawful, conservation-based bear harvests. One bear advocate posted on Facebook Monday, September 22 that the activist group, Angels in Distress, had spent $185,000 on lottery entries — about 37,000 applications, nearly a quarter of the total — with no intention of using the tags. Their goal? Keep bear tags out of the hands of hunters. Also, earlier in September the Sierra Club Florida shared a tutorial video showing those against hunting bears how to purchase a hunting license online. This video specifically showed how to check a box to request a deferral from Florida's hunter education requirements. By using the deferral program, Florida's Fish & Wildlife Conservation allows applicants without hunter's education to hunt with someone who already has their hunter ed or is exempt from these requirements. Despite this coordinated campaign, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) says these efforts haven't affected past hunts and likely won't derail this one either. If anti-hunters do manage to draw tags but don't use them, FWC will track unused permits and adjust future quotas to ensure bears are properly managed. Hunters can also take some pride in knowing that all this money — over $817,000 so far from $5 lottery entries, plus future tag fees — goes directly to wildlife conservation efforts in the state. So even sabotaged entries are indirectly helping fund habitat and wildlife management. Winners will be notified soon and have until October 6 to claim their tags. If they don't, those tags roll down to the next eligible applicant — likely a legitimate hunter. FWC originally planned to issue 187 tags, but trimmed that number slightly due to other bear mortality factors in the north. The hunt runs December 6 to 28 and is Florida's first bear hunt in a decade. After the bear hunting season closes, the officials will evaluate the hunter's success to the number of unused permits to adjust future bear hunting seasons.

Cliff Chamberlan, who's been fishing the Great Lakes since the '70s, was fly fishing and drifting a plastic bead on August 31, 2025 when he caught a 6-pound, 1-ounce pink salmon on the Salmon River — well above the long-standing state record of 4 pounds, 15 ounces set in 1985. Chamberlan followed all the rules: on September 4th it was determined by officials he caught the fish legally, had it confirmed by a fisheries biologist, and was even told congratulations — the record was his. Then, hours later, the state called him back with crushing news: New York had quietly retired pink salmon from its record books in 2024, just months earlier. The reason? Not enough recent entries — even though that had nothing to do with Chamberlan's impressive catch. Chamberlain was quoted in the New York Update, “I went from the highest high to the lowest low in about five hours.” And who could blame him? He caught a rare fish, heavier than any recorded in New York history, and still walked away empty-handed — all because the species was removed from the eligible list after decades of inaction by the state. The pink salmon, also called a “humpy,” is not stocked by New York, making catches like this incredibly rare. The species originally entered the region through Canada back in the 1950s and slowly spread to Lake Ontario. Even today, they show up occasionally — and when they do, they often go unnoticed or misidentified. So while Cliff Chamberlan may not get his name etched into the official state record books, among fellow anglers, his catch stands as a true accomplishment — proof of skill, patience, and a bit of old-school luck.

In Part Two of our late-night conversation, Bad at Sports digs deeper into the remarkable trajectory of Kenny Schachter. From law school dropout to autodidact philosopher, from Sotheby's bidder to artist and teacher, Schachter traces the unlikely path that brought him into the heart of the art world — a place he insists remains strangely conservative despite all its pretenses of progress. The discussion moves between personal history and systemic critique. Schachter recounts the role of art in surviving trauma, loss, and addiction, and why surrounding himself with works by others has been both solace and education. He reflects on the stubborn conservatism of the market, celebrity crossovers from Johnny Depp to Julian Schnabel, and the tension between wanting freedom and the systems that resist it. For Schachter, art is both a lifeline and a way to comment on the world's chaos — a practice rooted in generosity, curiosity, and contradiction. This episode captures him at his most reflective and most biting, moving from humor to vulnerability and back again. Highlights • Schachter's first encounters with Twombly, Rauschenberg, and Frankenthaler at the National Gallery. • The shock of Andy Warhol's estate sale in 1988. • Dealer-to-dealer hustling as an unlikely entry into art. • Why “there are no rules” is his best definition of being an artist. • The paradox of an art world that markets rebellion but runs on tradition.

This week on Bad at Sports, Duncan MacKenzie and Ryan Peter Miller find themselves in Chicago with curator Bianca Bova and the indefatigable Kenny Schachter — artist, writer, teacher, collector, and provocateur. What begins as a conversation about Schachter's exhibition at Old Friends Gallery — featuring chicken-assisted artworks and bronze casts forged in Slovenia — quickly expands into a meditation on the art world itself. Schachter reflects on his collaborations, his obsession with foundries, and his refusal to keep resources secret. The group debates the zero-sum mentality of the art market, why artists sabotage themselves, and how absurd projects (sometimes with actual chickens) can be the most serious acts of art-making. Equal parts candid and comedic, the conversation cuts across auctions, art fairs, and the everyday realities of teaching. Expect reflections on generosity vs. gatekeeping, the fragility of the art system, and what it means to make art that is more conceptual than commercial. Highlights • Chickens as collaborators and muses. • The foundry in Slovenia that casts Rudolf Stingel's panels. • Why keeping fabricators secret is a sign of weakness. • Auctions as democratizing, even anarchic, art spaces. • The necessity of art in a divided and compassion-starved world.

Inkers. Auctions. Artwork. 

Agriculture plays a part in everything we do. Recently, I was surprised to learn that agriculture even has a role in tattoo art. Graham Cassellius joins us from his 34-acre farm named Cassell Hollow Farm in Vernon County. When he bought the farm more than a decade ago, he inherited about 3,500 hazelnut trees. It took a few years for him to decide that it was time to start making something with those hazelnuts. It took him into a niche market of helping people maintain their fresh ink. But it wasn't easy -- growing a unique specialty crop in Wisconsin comes with challenges. Luckily, he had help from the Upper Midwest Hazelnut Development Initiative. Now, his valuable hazelnut skin oils will be featured at the Madison Tattoo Festival, September 12-14.A little rain today depending on where you are in Wisconsin, but the good news - warmer weather's on the way. Stu Muck explains the outlook in our Compeer Financial ag weather update.Just before the harvest lies the sweet spot for some farm equipment sales. Ashley Huhn with the Steffes Group explains to Pam Jahnke that sometimes farms want to go into the harvest with a little "insurance" in the form of back-up equipment. That can make for some robust auction prices. He explains in this week's Steffes Group update. Paid for by the Steffes Group.Markets reflect the near ideal weather the crop's enjoyed and the international challenges some grains are running into. Wisconsin's crop progress update shows a slight decline in the soybean readings, but the corn harvest has surpassed 10%. Meanwhile the state's potato growers can pace themselves with the harvest as long as the weather stays cool and dry. Pam Jahnke updates where numbers stand.Wisconsin’s wine grape harvest is underway, and at Bailey’s Run Vineyard in New Glarus, manager Aimee Arrigoni is watching the weather closely. She oversees six acres and 3,000 vines. The early Edelweiss has already been picked, but later-ripening reds are still waiting on September warmth. Recent swings between hot and unusually cool temperatures have stalled sugar levels, raising the risk of fruit damage from birds, bees, and disease. Despite the challenges, Arrigoni says yields are strong and quality is high, with promising reds like Marquette and Petite Pearl set for harvest later this month into early October.Shave them to save them. The phrase isn’t talking about beards and moustaches in this scenario, but rather a program run by the livestock conservancy to save our sheep. Ben Jarboe visits with Jeanette Baranger, the senior program manager for the livestock conservancy which has been in existence for about 7 years. She says one element they're promoting is how shaving the animal can actually help save them. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Toni Unleashed, Toni sits down with Kim Tamburri and Lindsey Perriello, the duo behind Auctions for Animals PGH, a grassroots nonprofit that has raised over $50,000 in just four years for local shelters and international rescues. Kim and Lindsey share the story of how a simple closet clean-out turned into a thriving Facebook auction group that now supports both Pittsburgh-area rescues and the Beach Dog Rescue of Costa Maya in Mexico. From coordinating donations and pick-ups to growing a community of nearly 1,000 members, they talk about the creativity, challenges, and joy that comes with turning everyday items into lifesaving funds. The conversation also highlights their upcoming 3rd Annual Cash Bash, an evening of prizes, games, raffle baskets, and community fun—all benefiting animals in need through both Costa Maya and the Izzy Fund. With stories of street dog rescues, spay/neuter campaigns abroad, and the power of community giving, this episode shows how small ideas can grow into incredible impact for animals. https://theizziefund.org/ https://www.facebook.com/share/g/14HJWj5gLs6/?mibextid=wwXIfr

There are many who argue that the Alien film series lost its mojo way back on LV-476. The horror / thriller /sci-fi franchise created by Ridley Scott, and given a pulse rifle shot-in-the-arm by James Cameron, seemed like it would never regain its former glory or so we thought until last year's Alien Romulus made us rethink that equation. Now, Noah Hawley (Legion, Fargo) brings the saga back home. This week, the Regular Joe's take a first look at Alien Earth, a very different approach to the Alien(s) universe. Before that, Dave and Barry get the VIP treatment at another auction preview featuring iconic props from some of our favorite franchises. There's also a round of What's in the Box and the usual random topics. Thanks for listening!

In Part 4 of our post-National discussion, Josh Adams, Chris McGill, and I dive into one of the hobby's most debated topics: comps. Are they the foundation of the market, just one input in a bigger decision-making process, or both? We explore how comps are created, their limits, and why some of the most memorable purchases happen without checking them at all. Plus, a look at the role of repackers, flippers, collectors, and underbidders in shaping prices — and why certain sellers hold more power than ever. Highlights include: Why comps aren't always the final word — and when to ignore them entirely The “input vs. output” theory of comps and what it means for market movement How the underbidder can have more influence than the winning bidder The impact of repackers, flippers, and institutional buyers on modern card prices Kabooms, Downtowns, and other repack staples that have surged in value Challenges of comping rare or long-untraded cards (and creative ways to do it) Why sellers with great items can command a premium regardless of comps 90s Auctions' successful National and Josh Adams' standout pickup Comparing Strongsville to The National as a future show destination Learn more about your ad choices.
