This week on Hort Culture, Alexis and Brett take a deep dive into one of the most confusing — and emotional — topics in horticulture businesses: pricing. From credit card fees to bouquet tiers, they unpack how pricing isn't just about math… it's about psychology.The episode starts with the foundation every grower needs to hear: know your cost of production. If you don't know what it costs you to produce a cucumber, a bouquet, or a pint of blueberries, you can't build a sustainable business. Pricing below your costs simply isn't a long-term strategy for small farms and floral businesses.From there, the conversation shifts into smart pricing strategies that growers can actually use: Loss leaders – Like the classic $5 rotisserie chicken at the grocery store, certain products can bring customers in while higher-margin items carry the profitability. Anchoring & price framing – The order in which customers see prices matters. Showing a premium option first can make the mid-tier feel more reasonable. The “middle option” effect – When given three choices (basic, premium, deluxe), most customers gravitate toward the middle. That's often where you want your strongest margins. Decoy pricing – Introducing a strategically priced option can steer buyers toward the size or bundle you actually want to sell. Bundling – Salad kits, dinner boxes, or bouquet add-ons increase perceived value and simplify decisions for customers. Value naming – Words like “chef's blend,” “deluxe,” or “seasonal” elevate perceived value without changing your actual product.Throughout the episode, Alexis brings practical examples from the flower world—especially holiday bouquet pricing—while Brett connects the dots to ag economics principles and behavioral psychology.The big takeaway?Customers judge prices relatively, not absolutely. Thoughtful pricing structure can increase revenue without undercutting your value — and without sacrificing your margins.If you've ever wondered why customers hesitate at checkout, why bundles work so well, or how to stop underpricing your products, this episode will help you rethink how you present value.University of Kentucky Center for Crop Diversification Center for Crop Diversification Price ReportsQuestions/Comments/Feedback/Suggestions for Topics: hortculturepodcast@gmail.comCheck us out on Instagram!

After Jeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide in August 2019, newly unsealed internal documents allege that MCC staff staged a decoy to mislead reporters gathered outside the prison. According to the files, guards concerned about the intense media presence assembled what looked like a human body from boxes and sheets and placed it in a white medical examiner's van. Reporters then followed that vehicle as it left the facility, while Epstein's actual body was reportedly loaded into a separate black vehicle and driven away unnoticed. The documents suggest this tactic was intended to “thwart” the press and protect the privacy of the removal process amidst heavy public scrutiny.The material comes from a large tranche of records related to how prison staff responded in the hours after Epstein was found unresponsive in his cell and later pronounced dead. While the official ruling was suicide by hanging, Epstein's death has been mired in controversy due to documented failures at the jail, including malfunctioning cameras and missed welfare checks, which have fueled speculation and alternative narratives.

Having helped grow Duckhorn from $5M to $500M in revenue and the sales team from 1 to >100 people, Pete Przbylinksi, former Chief Sales Officer of The Duckhorn Portfolio for nearly 30 years, has a deep understanding of managing US wholesale markets. In part two, Pete discusses selling into on- and off-premise chains, pricing, marketing, and more.Detailed Show Notes: Selling on-premise takes more time, need to present the wine, sell 1 case at a time, but more marketing valueROI skews towards off-premise if you ignore brand equityCalera / Kosta Browne targeted 65-70% on-premise, but hard to enforceCan't tell distributor where to sell since they own the productIf retailer asks for it, some states legally require it be offeredSelling off-premise chainsRely very little on distributor, need to build relationship on your ownIf brand is small, can use agents/brokers or distributors to get initial discussionsTakes patience and perseverance, and need a compelling storyBig retailers don't care about the winemaking process, they care that customers will buy the wineIn-store displaysRetail product managers fight with each other for displaysIf displays don't deliver value, they will lose floor space to othersConstellation research: most product pulled from shelf, not displays; displays act as powerful billboard for shoppersShelf placementCold box similar to displays - limited real estate, hard to get in and get the desirable locationsNeed to communicate to wholesaler merchandising teams where you'd like to be (e.g. - x shelf next to y competitor); need to keep message simple Stick w/ message for ~2 years, takes a long time to see impact, needs patienceLarge on-premise accountsLook at ACV (volume) to identify top targetsSimilar to off-premise with limited real estate (wine list slots) and they need the wine to sellCan take fewer wines vs off-premise (2-4 max)Longer lead times, programs can be 1-2 years, need to be ready when windows openBTG great, but creates some pricing complicationsNeed to show up where buyers are, e.g. - major events like Pebble Beach or Aspen Food & WineDecoy's success driven by off-premiseSafeway in CA launched brand, then went to other regions and retailers and grew from thereDuckhorn brand equity gave Decoy a springboard to launch, but was able to stand alone and now most Decoy drinkers don't know the tie to DuckhornPrice increasesGet all the data you can (competitor, consumer behavior, demand elasticity)The nuances of consumers and differences in brand equity are impactfulAny decisions take time, may not affect retailers for ~120 days, could take 6-12 months before you see an impactDiscountingKey for the grocery channelDiscounting should be done after all other options exhaustedThe more it happens, customers think that's the price of the product, erodes brand equityImpact of marketing on salesDuckhorn did very little traditional marketing, mostly sales support (spent ~1.5-2% of revenue)LVMH spends ~30% on marketing, CPG average is ~10% of revenueDid some testing of advertising in 1 market for 1 year and measured impact to determine if it should be expandedPartnerships w/ other products good for grocery channel, can often secure displaysAdvice for a tough wine marketSet up production to align w/ honest and believable sales planLong-term impacts of cutting opex will hurt growing the top-line Hosted on Acast.

Rick Pierce, Co-Founder and CEO of Decoy Therapeutics. is using AI and machine learning to accelerate drug discovery and is developing broad-acting antivirals using peptide conjugates that target a shared invasion mechanism of hundreds of viruses.  The company is using small language models and a high-speed peptide synthesizer to dramatically reduce drug creation time. Rick predicts that the future of drug discovery will combine AI-driven design with advanced biological models, such as organoids, to better predict drug toxicity and efficacy. Rick explains, "Decoy Therapeutics was founded years ago, during the COVID era. And what we've learned during that was that in order to develop drugs rapidly and scale up their manufacturing, we needed to use machine learning and AI. And the drugs that we're looking at developing today as a result of that are broad-acting antivirals that can be used against multiple viruses. So one drug can be used against multiple viruses like Flu, COVID, and RSV." "So we chose antivirals as a space because viruses have what is called polypharmacology, and in plain layman's terms, what that means is that about 250 of these viruses share the same invasion machinery, meaning the way the virus enters the healthy cells is shared across all those viruses. It's slightly different in each of those viruses, but effectively for drug development, very similar."   "That allows us to use peptides, which are also alpha helices, to be able to design drugs with AI and machine learning that physically block the invasion machinery and thus basically the virus from binding to a healthy cell. Peptides are uniquely positioned as drugs for this set of viral targets. Again, it's a rich set of targets among 250 viruses across multiple viral families."   #DecoyTherapeutics #PeptideConjugates #BroadSpectrumAntiviral #AIinBiotech #NextGenMedicine   decoytx.com Listen to the podcast here

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Pros and cons of prosthetics for canine training. The importance of teaching your dog to find the human being in the bite. Why training biting across different textures is key. Tips for safely and effectively utilizing prosthetics in training.    Key Takeaways: When you're trying to approximate down in training and are using equipment, you want to use equipment that is as thin as possible, but as thick as necessary. If you're beginning training with prosthetics, the arms can be a little easier to work with at first.  Leverage your dog's bite command right before they engage. If there is any confusion, leverage what they already know to get the behavior you're looking for.  Decoy schools should be teaching how to safely and properly incorporate prosthetic equipment.    "Biting any kind of equipment, the dogs are going to get used to a texture that gives their teeth some purchase in that particular piece of equipment…And so we want to make sure that they're willing to engage that new texture. We want to take advantage when we first introduce these things." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Episode References: Check out the Training Videos by Steve Sprouse at: https://www.arminleggan.com/  More information on the Kynology Seminar with Dr. Stewart Hilliard: https://kynology.org/    Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com YouTube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co  Dog Armour: http://www.dogarmour.com/  Rogue Arsenal: https://roguearsenal.com/    Train hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this two-part episode, Pete dives into every aspect of managing a wholesale sales team, including incentive structures and collaborating with distributors.Detailed Show Notes: Duckhorn went from 50k cases / ~$5M in revenue / 14-15 employees (1995) to ~$500M revenue (2024)The Duckhorn PortfolioDuck themed: Duckhorn Vineyards (1978), Decoy (2nd label originally), Paraduxx (1994), Goldeneye, Migration, CanvasbackAcquisitions: Calera (2017), Kosta Browne (2018), Sonoma Cutrer (2024)Keys to Duckhorn's successBrand equity - focused on Merlot, which was hot in 1980s-1990s and catapulted wineryKey assets - #1 people, #2 brand equityThe French Paradox (1991) created big demand for red wineTable stakes are good scores, showing up in the market, hosting guestsSales team grew from 1 person to >100 (~85 in the field)No perfect way to calculate ROI for sales people1st method: too many cases & distributors to manage, needed more people2nd method: quantified expected incremental sales from more people (data was full of holes)Final method: managed to target of 8-10% sales opex / revenue, because a KPI for SLT and BoardSales team rolesRegional Managers, over a series of states (50-60% of time working w/ distributors, the rest out in the market or internal analysis and reporting)District Managers, geographically concentrated, go into accounts you want to be inNational Accounts, on and off-premise; a challenge to determine which accounts are national vs regional, ended up doing it case by case and assigning accountsDistributor consolidation led to wineries needed to do the work they cannot doE.g. - identifying underrepresented accounts and coming up with action plan by regionIdentifying top salespeopleLook at overall contribution margin for the regionShare of business in market (using IRI, distributor reports, account base)Gross Profit%, identifies amount of trade spend usedHow responsive they are, their handle on the market, their decision making#1 method: do they bring new ideas to the tableIncentivizing salespeopleBonuses must be meaningful (25-35% is meaningful), higher for higher levelsLook at contribution margin relative to budgetUsed a curve (

Mark Johnson in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLE9mfb6eZU https://dontsleepdream.bandcamp.com/album/life-is-just-a-ride Although first formed in 1985, The Bollweevils did not come together properly as a live act until 1988. The first full line-up included Sarah Griffiths (vocals), Mark Johnson (lead guitar), Steve McKevitt (bass guitar), Dave Lloyd (rhythm guitar) and Chris Coyle (drums). From their first gig The Bollweevils received favourable reviews. However, it was not until late in 1989 that the band signed a recording contract with the Vinyl Solution. In March 1990, their first single was released on the Decoy label, the self produced and critically well-received four track Talk To Me EP. ABC's Stephen Singleton agreed to help record the second single, but it was not finished until 1991 and neither the band nor the record company were happy with the results. The tracks were re-mixed in June with the punk/dance producer Alan Scott, but the Life's A Scream EP was never released in that form.

This episode dives into how the 2025 Louisiana duck season kicked off—from the energy of Youth Opener to the early weeks of chasing birds across the state. We talk through what we've been seeing in the field so far, the places we've traveled, and the migration patterns starting to take shape. You'll hear honest stories from our hunts, what gave us confidence heading into regular season, and why an old-school decoy that many hunters overlook is still producing when the conditions are right. If you want a real, on-the-water look at how the season is unfolding, this one's packed with it.

Mike Marino of Marino Decoys joins Elliott to share how a kids pastor fell in love with carving and turned high density cork and tupelo heads into functional art that hunts. Mike walks through his full process from pattern and bandsaw to glass eyes and paint, why cork still floats after a stray pellet, and how he creates working urn decoys that hold a dog's ashes and even shells. He talks species he carves and hunts, goldeneye addiction on frozen reservoirs, first place ribbons at the Colorado State Fair, and the “Just One More” mission behind his brand. Elliott and Mike also swap notes on cooking divers, raising kids in the blind, and why faith brings real freedom. See Mike's work at merinodecoys.com and on Instagram and Facebook at Marino Decoys.

Holy frijoles - mind the gap and pardon the delay.  Too many doins are afoot and we owe you a few (episodes).  Right here's another one from the pile, with a caffeine rodeo on the back of projects getting done.  Point is, figure the next step and do it - dudes do, after all, and geeks get it done.  There's tales of fine woodworking, failing lithium-ion deathpods, a decent beer 'n burn, and when it's all done, strategies for a righteous nap.  Plus that up with a Garage Hour Reload that digs back into the disappearance of Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan and why T.I.G.H.A.R. and Gardner Island probably still hold the key.   But wait: Kipple's back, Mt. Dew and Hostess apple pies never left, someone's messing with beer, China's messing with Burma, real eatin' with some proper Dude Food, and real messaging for fake meat (and why a veggie burger ain't as bad as one of those new fake-meat cancer patties).  Also, how about a classy sendoff for Dr. Demento?
