Podcasts about Golden State

California has long reigned as the land of plenty, a place where the sun always shines and opportunity beckons. Even prior to its statehood in 1850, it captured the world's imagination. We think of bearded prospectors lured by the promise of gold; we imagine its early embrace of immigrant labor during the railroad boom as prologue to its diverse social fabric today. But what lies underneath the myth is far more complicated. Thanks to extensive research by Michael Hiltzik, one of our longstanding voices on California, Golden State: The Making of California (Mariner Books, 2025) uncovers the unvarnished truth about the state we think we know well. From Spanish incursions into what became known as Alta California to the rise of Big Tech, the history of California is one of stark contradictions. In rich, previously overlooked detail, we see its earliest statesmen wreak havoc among native peoples while racing to draft their own constitution even ahead of statehood. Gold-hungry settlers venture into the Sierra foothills only to leave with little, while a handful of their suppliers turn themselves into millionaire railroad magnates. Wars erupt in the name of water as Los Angeles booms, and early efforts to tame the vast landscape create a haven for fossil fuel extraction and environmental conservation alike. Hollywood politicians stoke fear, contributing to a centuries-long tradition of anti-Asian violence, and, remarkably, legal redlining and free higher education take root together. Golden State brings a fresh critical eye to the origins of the state against which the rest of the country measures itself. From its very start, Hiltzik shows, the story of the United States was written in California. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Today's AgNet News Hour featured a candid and wide-ranging conversation with Dale Nicol, Syngenta's West Coast grower relations manager, whose decades of experience give him a unique perspective on both the challenges and opportunities facing California agriculture. From shifting market dynamics to regulatory roadblocks, Nicol offered an unvarnished look at the pressures growers are navigating in 2024. Market Shifts and Imports Impacting California Crops Nicol began by addressing the growing competition from imported wine grapes, noting how international supply pressures are reshaping markets for California producers. While the Golden State remains a leader in quality and volume, imports are forcing farmers to rethink their strategies to stay competitive. He stressed the importance of strengthening relationships between growers, marketers, and policymakers to protect local industries. Regulatory Pressures and Political Climate One of the central themes of the interview was the mounting regulatory burden on California farmers. From pesticide restrictions to environmental compliance, Nicol said that the state's rules often put local growers at a disadvantage compared to competitors in other states and countries. He emphasized the need for a balanced approach that safeguards the environment without jeopardizing the economic viability of farming. Nicol also weighed in on the political climate, warning that unless agriculture has a strong and unified voice in Sacramento and Washington, decisions will continue to be made without a full understanding of their impact on food production. Innovation and the Next Generation Despite the challenges, Nicol remains optimistic about agriculture's capacity for innovation. He highlighted Syngenta's work in developing cutting-edge crop protection and seed technologies that help farmers increase yields while reducing environmental impact. He also called on the industry to invest in the next generation of growers, ensuring they have the resources, training, and policy support to carry the sector forward. A Call for Engagement Nicol's message to California agriculture was clear: growers must stay engaged in policy discussions, embrace technology, and build coalitions that can influence decisions at every level. “The future of farming depends on the choices we make now,” he concluded, urging farmers to remain proactive rather than reactive.

California Farming Voices: On today's AgNet News Hour, host Nick Papagni and co-host Josh McGill take listeners on a tour of California agriculture, from the dairies of Hanford to the John Deere showroom in Madera. The episode features two in-depth interviews—first with dairy farmer Case Anker, then with Stan Nelson of Midland Tractor—offering a ground-level view of farming challenges and innovations across the Golden State. Anker, a third-generation dairyman, shares how his family's operation balances cow comfort with fluctuating market conditions. From citrus peel feed to molasses treats, he explains that keeping cows cool and stress-free is just as critical as feed quality. While 2024 has brought fair milk and feed prices, Anker notes the dairy business demands resilience—farmers must be ready for both good and bad years, setting aside reserves for leaner times. He encourages consumers to support dairies by buying milk, cheese, pizza, and other dairy products, highlighting the pride and stewardship that comes with caring for animals and the land. The show then shifts north to Madera, where Nelson discusses Midland Tractor's 40-year history serving California growers. With service trucks covering territory from Bakersfield to Yuba City, Midland specializes in providing efficient, cutting-edge John Deere equipment for orchards, vineyards, and specialty crops. Nelson details the growing role of technology in agriculture, from precision spray systems to emerging autonomous tractor solutions. He emphasizes the industry's reliance on water, noting that reliable supply and storage are essential not only for farms but for the many allied businesses that support them. Throughout the episode, Papagni and McGill connect the dots between on-farm realities, supply chain impacts, and the broader ag economy. Whether it's tackling water scarcity, navigating trade tariffs, or adopting new equipment, the conversations underline agriculture's resilience and adaptability.

In a powerful conversation on the AgNet News Hour, Fallbrook grower and entrepreneur Elaine Collotti—known as The Lipstick Farmer—delivered a frank assessment of California's agricultural and political climate. Collotti, who has been directly impacted by the Palisades Fires, warned that the state's lack of financial transparency, infrastructure failures, and policy neglect are threatening the livelihoods of farmers and rural communities across the Golden State. Funding Shortfalls and Federal Tensions Collotti described a grim reality in post-fire recovery, accusing state leaders of leaving devastated communities without resources. According to her, federal funding from FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers ended without sustainable follow-up from the Newsom administration, leaving clean-up incomplete and property owners in limbo. She believes the Trump administration's planned presence in California—including new legal representation—could uncover mismanagement of funds and bring accountability. Water, Labor, and Immigration Solutions Water policy remains a flashpoint for California agriculture. Collotti criticized the state's lack of attention to water infrastructure and applauded efforts to address water loss from mountain runoff flowing unused to the ocean. On labor, she urged a three-tier approach to immigration reform—protecting long-time workers, creating legal pathways for seasonal farm labor, and deporting criminal offenders. She also proposed a domestic work sponsorship program, allowing wealthy households to legally sponsor employees such as nannies, gardeners, and agricultural workers, bringing stability to both families and farms. SNAP Reform to Support Small Farmers One of Collotti's most striking policy suggestions was redirecting SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) subsidies away from large agribusiness and toward local small farmers. By partnering with federal agencies like HHS, she envisions a system that purchases directly from regional producers, utilizes rail for efficient distribution, and delivers fresh, local produce to those in need. “Get the best food to the most needy for the best price,” Collotti emphasized, calling small farmers “our gold” and the key to making America healthy again. A Call for Political Focus and Leadership Collotti warned against “grifters” in the crowded gubernatorial race, advocating for a single strong candidate capable of reversing California's debt crisis, restoring business confidence, and defending the state's multi-billion-dollar agriculture industry. As California farmers brace for higher fuel costs, water challenges, and ongoing labor uncertainty, voices like Elaine Collotti's are pushing for immediate reform, federal cooperation, and a renewed commitment to rural prosperity.

Fighting for California Agriculture: In today's AgNet News Hour, Nick Papagni and Josh McGill welcomed Rich Kreps, for a wide-ranging conversation on the biggest issues facing agriculture in the Golden State, from water and labor to policy reform and the future of farming. Kreps, a longtime advocate for California farmers, stressed that agriculture is at a critical juncture. He pointed to an ever-tightening regulatory climate, rising costs, and political disconnect as threats to the state's ability to feed the nation and the world. “We have the best farmers in the world,” he said, “but they can't compete if we make it impossible to do business here.” One of Kreps' top concerns is water management. He noted that the state has failed to invest in storage and infrastructure, even in wet years, leaving growers vulnerable to drought and restrictive environmental flows. Without a balanced approach that serves farms, communities, and the environment, California risks losing production permanently. The conversation also tackled labor and workforce challenges, particularly immigration reform. Kreps underscored the need for a legal, stable labor supply, arguing that lawmakers in Sacramento and Washington must understand how essential these workers are to keeping farms viable. Looking ahead, Kreps emphasized the importance of supporting young and beginning farmers. With the average California farmer nearing retirement age, the industry must find ways to lower barriers for the next generation — from access to land and capital to education and mentorship. Listeners also heard updates on: The upcoming Citrus & Specialty Crop Expo Changes in federal ag leadership International trade developments affecting California exports Kreps' closing message was clear: agriculture must stay united and engaged in the political process. “If you're not at the table, you're on the menu,” he warned, urging farmers to share their stories and advocate for policies that will keep California agriculture strong for decades to come.

They finish with OKC's conservative approach post-Finals run, Phoenix's pivot without Durant, and promising youth-focused moves by San Antonio and Utah.Timestamps by team:Dallas Mavericks: 00:00:21Denver Nuggets: 00:18:03Golden State Warriors: 00:30:27Houston Rockets: 00:42:22LA Clippers: 00:49:19LA Lakers: 00:58:38Memphis Grizzlies: 01:10:19Minnesota Timberwolves: 01:23:39New Orleans Pelicans: 01:33:31Oklahoma City Thunder: 01:41:45Phoenix Suns: 01:46:41Portland Trail Blazers: 01:55:13Sacramento Kings: 02:02:05San Antonio Spurs: 02:07:34Utah Jazz: 02:13:15 Join Dunc'd On Prime!

California Gov. Gavin Newsom's recent visit to early-primary South Carolina, followed by his return home and hinting at a special election to re-politicize California's redistricting process in order to add more Democratic seats in Congress (as a counter to Texas' legislature doing the same to pad the present House GOP majority), seems further evidence of the term-limited governor's president ambitions. Yet as Newsom's South Carolina experience showed, wherever he journeys, he also brings along the Golden State as political baggage.  Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind periodical, join Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State including where Newsom stands as far as delivering on lofty gubernatorial promises with less than 18 months remaining in his second and final term, as well as how that record on such thorny policy matters as homelessness, new housing and high-speed rail construction might impact his presidential prospects. Recorded on July 21, 2025. 

In part one of this two-part conversation, Chad sits down with Mark Hennelly of California Waterfowl Association—one of the most knowledgeable voices in the country when it comes to waterfowl policy, conservation, and how hunting seasons actually get made. Mark breaks down the science and strategy behind season dates, bag limits, hen restrictions, and why some states run longer seasons than others. You've probably heard that hunting has to shut down before mating season—but is that really the full story? They also dive into what makes California such a powerhouse for bird hunters..Not just ducks, but geese, turkeys, quail, and more. From extended seasons to special hunts, Mark explains why the Golden State is still one of the best in the country. Of course, they talk pintails, the kings of California, and why raising the bag limit matters more now than ever. If you've ever asked yourself, “Do bag limits actually help the population?” or “Why are we still stuck at one pintail?” you're going to want to hear this. This one's full of sharp insight, real answers, and a whole lot of passion for the birds we chase. Part two drops next—don't miss it.

If you were a miner in California during the Gold Rush, you might have dined on a California red-legged frog. The largest native frog in the western United States, this Golden State denizen used to be found as far inland as the Sierra Nevada mountains and south, into Baja California. But today, they're listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Conservationists have worked to translocate new populations of the red-legged frog back to California in hopes that their numbers can be restored. But how do they monitor those populations' growth?
