Jake Tapper continues to try to gain fans on the right side of the aisle by insulting the Left. It's a bold strategy, Cotton. President Donald Trump is coming down on Harvard and they definitely deserve it. He has a plan to reroute the money and encourage people to go into business without spending time in school. Is this the new future of America or is college still the road to success?GUEST: Josh FirestineLet American Financing help you regain control of your finances.

Gus T. Renegade gives counter-racist analysis on the second day of the Sade C. Robinson murder trial in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. More than a year after the murder and dismemberment of the 19-year-old black teen, Suspected Racist Maxwell Anderson is accused of arson, dismemberment, hiding a corpse and homicide. 12 jurors and 3 alternate jurors were selected on the first day of proceedings. Unless Gus is mistaken, only 3 of the 15 are classified as non-White. There are only 3 males on the jury, and one of them is classified as black. Gus thinks the lack of White dudes is phenomenal, as it means there won't be many White guys to cape for this suspected killer during deliberations. Prosecutor Ian Vance-Curzan and defense attorney Anthony Cotton gave opening statements that prepped the jury for weeks of gory testimony. Importantly, Cotton acknowledged he and the prosecution are in agreement on many of the facts of Sade's murder. He just don't think the state of Wisconsin can prove Anderson is responsible for these crimes. Now that the trial is getting started, we'll speak to other spectators in the courtroom to see what they think about the trial, jury composition, and chances that Anderson will get away with murder. #ForSade INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets, featuring Patti Cotton's journey from a part-time secretary to the Chief Development Officer of a major healthcare system —a testament to perseverance, integrity, and visionary leadership. Navigating the challenges of single motherhood while climbing the corporate ladder, she built her career on a foundation of mentorship, ethical decision-making, and emotional intelligence. Patti's decision to step away from a high-level position due to burnout and misaligned values marked a pivotal moment, leading her to create a leadership development consultancy focused on cultivating authenticity and impact in the business world. Her leadership approach emphasizes the power of self-acceptance, psychological safety, and inclusive practices that allow teams to thrive. With a deep understanding of the human side of leadership, Patti encourages executives to dismantle unspoken assumptions and build a “brain trust” network that fosters reciprocal learning and innovation. Her coaching model centers on empathy, authenticity, and purpose—skills she believes are essential for navigating today's relational and emotionally complex business environment. Now focused on expanding her consultancy, Patti is developing leadership groups, writing a new book, and mentoring the next generation of leaders.

Guest: Dr. Gustavo Lascano, Associate Professor of Ruminant Nutrition, Clemson UniversityHost: Drs. Gabe Kenne & Buz KlootLength: ~70 minutesIn this conversation with Dr. Gustavo Lascano, Ruminant Nutrition Specialist at Clemson University, we discuss integrating ecological principles like succession and diversity into farm management to improve animal, soil, and human health. Dr. Lascano describes intricate details of ruminant nutrition and reinforces that it should focus not only on calories but also on proper nutrient balance and feeding the microbial ecosystem within the rumen. His expertise in this field comes not only from advanced degrees and field and laboratory research, but also from experiencing indigenous agricultural systems firsthand and seeing how they offer valuable insights into sustainable, low-input food production systems.Episode Highlights:Rethinking Production Systems with Ecological SuccessionDiverse Background with Global RootsFree Choice Feeding & Ruminant EfficiencyRumen Microbiology & Soil ParallelsIndustrial vs. Regenerative Feeding ModelsAgroecological Inspirations from the AmazonThe Role of Animals in Regenerative AgTo learn more about Dr. Lascano and ruminant nutrition, check out the below links:Gustavo Lascano at Clemson UniversityFaculty ProfileSoil Health Lab Podcast ArchivesVisit WebsiteFeatured in the episode: Cotton, Country, Conservation (8-year regenerative agriculture study)

This solo episode has been a long time coming, and I'm so grateful you're here for it. I'm opening up about the journey we've been on with Carmela—sharing what it's like navigating an autism diagnosis, the hard truths, the small wins, and why I'm more hopeful than ever. From functional medicine and light therapy to the emotional rollercoaster of parenting and advocating, I wanted to speak honestly about what's helped, what hasn't, and how I've learned to trust my gut through it all. I also answer some of your thoughtful questions about perfectionism, PCOS, manifestation, and how to embrace the chaos of your 20s.

This week on the Red Dirt Agronomy podcast, the "Doctor's of Dirt, & Everything That Grows From It" talk about the southwest corner of the state—where the cotton fields stretch wide and the water's been mighty scarce. Dr. Brian Arnall, Dr. Josh Lofton, and Dave Deken catch up with Maxwell Smith, the IPM specialist working boots-on-the-ground in Altus. Maxwell breaks down the unique challenges of farming cotton in a region where irrigation depends on the Lake Lugert-Altus canal system—and where just a few inches of water can make or break your season.They talk through the nuts and bolts of the irrigation setup, why cotton works (when it works), and what's pushing some farmers to roll the dice on dryland corn. You'll also hear why herbicide resistance is bringing back “old-school” weed control, how new cotton trait tech like ThriveOn is changing early-season insect control, and what the future looks like for peanuts in Caddo County. If you grow cotton, peanuts, or anything under hot skies and dry dirt, this episode's got your name on it.[00:00–02:00] Max Smith on Altus, cotton, and canal-fed irrigation[03:00–06:00] Allocation math, irrigation upgrades, and lining the ditches[06:30–10:30] Cotton economics, price drops, and crop-switching trends[11:00–16:00] IPM 101: Bugs, weeds, and managing the early season[16:30–20:00] Trait tech: What's working, what's not, and what's next[20:30–24:00] Rotation talk: Corn, cotton, and keeping weeds guessing[24:30–29:00] Peanuts in Oklahoma: acreage trends, water woes, and weeds RedDirtAgronomy.com

“I've been particularly passionate about working with women in those communities to teach them about new techniques so they can understand how to run their farm more effectively, but also understand their rights as women in those communities so they have a stronger voice…. And because they were called an ‘ambassador,' their status in the village rose.” Alison Ward on Electric Ladies Podcast Have you ever wondered where your shirt really comes from, or where the cotton in your jeans was grown? While the tag might tell you where they were made, it won't tell you where the cotton came from. And that matters. Cotton is everywhere but this vital crop is now facing serious threats from climate change. Women farmers are transforming it. One organization is working to change that. CottonConnect is training female cotton farmers in eco-friendly, climate-resilient farming practices – and tracking it.  Listen to Alison aWard, CEO of CottonConnect on Electric Ladies Podcast with Joan Michelson and learn about the significant yet under recognized role of women in cotton farming. You'll hear about: How climate change is hitting female farmers the hardest. The ways CottonConnect is bringing transparency to the cotton supply chain. Innovative solutions in cotton farming, including a role played by the European Space Agency. How CottonConnect is empowering women and transforming communities. Plus, career advice for women navigating career transitions. “If you can combine something you're passionate about with something you're good at, and you can make that into a career, that is success. Find other women that will be prepared to give back to help careers and connect. We have a Women in CottonConnect group where we are really looking at how we can advance women in our organization.   “Not everything has to be an enormous career step. When I joined CottonConnect, it was a relatively small organization that has since grown into a much larger one. But it was something I was passionate about, and I've been fortunate to have a great team and great advisors around me.”  Alison Ward on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.
