Join host Kimmi Devaney as she chats with Jason Shamburg and Nic Schoenberger, founders and managing partners of Kansas Dairy Development (KDD), about raising dairy replacements and leading a dynamic, high-caliber team. KDD is a calf ranch and heifer-raising facility based in Deerfield, Kansas, that raises youngstock for dairy clients in Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Wyoming. They also operate a calf depot in Wisconsin.  Progression of calves and heifers at KDD:  KDD receives calves at 2 to 3 days of age on average, and calves spend approximately 90 days in bedded hutches with a wire paneled outdoor area. After 90 days, calves are moved into transition barns for approximately 60 days. The transition barns range in size from 480'- 660' in length with individual pens that are 30' wide by 90' deep with a 35' deep roof structure at the back of the pen. Pens are well drained and bedded seasonally with a curtain at the north end of the barn that can be raised and lowered seasonally as conditions require. Calves move to group pens at 150 days of age, which have a significant shade and windbreak structure. Both the group pens and transition barns are bedded heavily to the conditions and needs of the animals throughout the year. At 180-200 days of age, animals are moved to more traditional open lot pens where they will continue to grow until they are moved into the breeding area at approximately 350 days of age. Heifers will be bred according to their voluntary waiting period (VWP) and grown to eventually head back to their respective home dairy at 210 days carrying calf (DCC) on average).  Episode breakdown:  [~1:10] How KDD and the partnership between Shamburg and Schoenberger came together about a decade ago[~2:15] About their calf depot[~4:30] Seasonal management differences, including bedding year round[~7:20] Heifer breeding program[~8:30] Data management[~12:45] Overview of calf ranch and heifer development programs[~13:40] Their client base and how they built those relationships over the last decades[~16:20] Biosecurity[~19:25] Keys to successfully raising heifers[~23:40] How their core values help to shape their team culture[~31:00] Qualities they look for in new employees[~33:05] Keeping employees motivated and engaged[~35:30] The greatest lessons Shamburg and Schoenberger have learned about leading a high-caliber team[~37:45] Schoenberger was recognized by the Holstein Foundation with the 2026 Young Dairy Leaders Institute (YDLI) Distinguished Alumni Leader Award[~39:00] Schoenberger's message for current the YDLI class and what he hopes they gain from their experience[~41:40] Rapid-fire questions

Send us Fan MailThis episode is something special. Imagine reconnecting with two young men from your youth group… fifty years later. That's exactly what happened when Brad Thompson and Rick Axtell and I found our way back into each other's lives after five decades apart, tracing a shared journey that none of us could have predicted.Back in the early 1970s in Deerfield, Illinois, we were shaped by the same evangelical world at a thriving church on the north side of Chicago. Life, of course, took us in very different directions. Brad Thompson went on to pastoral ministry after graduating from St. Olaf College and earning his M.Div. from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School—the same seminary I attended. Along the way, he also invested deeply in the lives of underserved young adults through YouthBuild, helping provide education, job training, and hope for a better future. Even in retirement, Brad continues to serve as an interim pastor in the Evangelical Covenant Church—and he was the catalyst behind our remarkable reunion.Rick Axtell's journey led him into academia and service. He became a distinguished professor of religion and college chaplain at Centre College in Kentucky, earning multiple teaching awards and national recognition, including being named one of The Princeton Review's top professors. Rick has also devoted himself to addressing hunger and homelessness, helping lead initiatives like Louisville United Against Hunger and founding a soup kitchen in Natchez, Mississippi.Together, we reflect on our shared past and ask the deeper questions: What happened to us? Where has our faith evolved—or unraveled? What do we still hold in common?If you grew up in fundamentalist or evangelical spaces and now find yourself wrestling with what to keep, what to leave behind, and what comes next—you'll hear your own story echoing in ours. Listen in on this remarkable reunion.

In this episode, Cherise is joined by Matt Wallace, Partner, and John Taylor (or JT) Schaffhauser, Associate at Lake Flato Architects with offices in San Antonio and Austin, Texas, and Portland, Oregon. They discuss the Ryerson Woods Education Center in Deerfield, Illinois.You can see the project here as you listen along.Situated at the threshold between woodland and water along the Des Plaines River, the Ryerson Woods Education Center emerges as both refuge and instrument—an architecture that listens as much as it teaches. Positioned within the delicate ecology of the flatwoods, the building does not assert itself over the landscape, but instead operates as a quiet mediator, framing the rhythms of the forest while inviting visitors into a deeper understanding of its systems. Part of this system that integrates respect for nature is the exterior's triple-pane bird-friendly glass, the first of its kind to be certified Phius in the U.S.If you enjoy this episode, visit arcat.com/podcast for more.If you're a frequent listener of Detailed, you might enjoy similar content at Gābl Media.Mentioned in this episode:Social Channel Pre-rollPromotes the YouTube channel, ARACTemy, and social handle.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down for a return visit with J. Jason Hicks — author, technologist, and storyteller — to dig into his new nonfiction book The War of Leadership: Hard Lessons and Practical Truths for Surviving In and Beyond Leadership. Drawing from 30 years in the corporate world, Jason unpacks the uncomfortable truths that no one tells new leaders: the manipulation, the blind spots, the politics, and the quiet treachery of organizational life. Marcus and Jason explore why awareness of dark leadership tactics doesn't make you a bad leader — it makes you a prepared one. They also cover the craft of writing, the role of AI in creative work, and why the human element in art, music, and literature will never be replaceable. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS The Dark Side of Leadership — 2:16 Jason reads the defining passage from the book: "You'll be misled. You will be asked to mislead..." — a raw, unflinching look at how leadership corrupts incrementally, and how good people get drawn into cycles they never intended to be part of. The Blame Game & Double-Edged Sword — 6:23 Marcus and Jason break down how leaders attack their predecessors while their own teams are quietly building a case against them. Leadership blind spots, self-preservation, and the vicious cycle of blame are all on the table. The Message in a Bottle — 12:05 Jason reveals who he really wrote this book for: the bright-eyed, naive young professional walking into the arena with no idea what's coming. This is the intel he wishes someone had given him early in his career. Agreeable and Wrong vs. Disagreeable and Right — 17:57 One of the most quotable moments of the episode: Jason drops the line "It's better to be agreeable and wrong than disagreeable and right — you'll be remembered for being disagreeable, not for being right." Marcus and Jason unpack the tactical wisdom of knowing when to push back and when to let the dust settle. Jason Hicks was born in Deerfield, Illinois, raised in New Berlin, Wisconsin, and graduated from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh where he studied English literature, religions, and early Christianity. While attending a television screenwriting course, he won the department's screenwriting award for a Star Trek: The Next Generation script — then spent the next 30 years successfully avoiding writing while building a career in technology. Upon leaving that career, he returned to his first love and penned Ruin Waters: Bane Book One of the Annals of the Last Emissary, followed by the second book in the series, The Earth, My War. His debut nonfiction, The War of Leadership: Hard Lessons and Practical Truths for Surviving In and Beyond Leadership, draws directly from his three decades in the corporate world. He currently lives in Tucson, Arizona, where he writes, speaks, and coaches on leadership. Find him at linktr.ee/jjasonhicks and on social media @jjasonhicks.

Peter Forster is a South Africa-raised theater scholar with degrees in dramatic literature, directing, and screenwriting who serves as the dramaturg for Deerfield Theater's production of Murder on the Orient Express. He describes the dramaturg's role as providing literary and historical context, standing "behind the people who stand behind the scenes." For this production, he created research documents covering the 1934 political climate in Europe, background on each character's country of origin, a timeline of Agatha Christie's life and writing career, and inspiration sources such as the Lindbergh kidnapping and a real-life Orient Express snowdrift incident. He characterizes his involvement as largely supplementary and non-intrusive, noting the production team has been "wonderfully independent," while he made himself available and offered recommendations on pre- and post-show music. Peter enthusiastically praises the adaptation's bold tonal choices and the way it deviates from the novel, arguing that audiences who know the story will find it fascinating precisely because it is different, and that Christie's themes of human depravity in enclosed spaces feel remarkably relevant to today's political climate.Performances at Caruso Auditorium, 1801 Montgomery Rd., Deerfield on:* Thursday, April 9 at 7:30pm* Fridays, April 3 and 10 at 7:30pm* Saturdays, April 4 and 11 at 2:00pm and 7:30pm* Sunday, April 12 at 2:00pmDeerfield TheaterPurchase TicketsWe're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make our upcoming shows a success!

Julia Helmer is a Buffalo Grove-based community theater enthusiast who grew up in Deerfield and is playing Greta Ohlsson, a Swedish missionary and composite character, in Deerfield Theater's production of Murder on the Orient Express. A self-described theater kid since seventh grade, she took a decade-long break from performing while living in Chicago before returning to community theater in 2018. For this role, she's been mastering a Swedish accent, read the Agatha Christie novel (as an audiobook), and watched the 2017 film to compare interpretations, noting that the play uniquely adds humor and levity to the otherwise dark mystery. She is so excited about the show's balance of comedy and suspense. Julia credits her theater background, including improv training, with making her effective in sales and client-facing situations for her work.

Brian Parry is a veteran Chicago-area actor with several decades of experience, currently retired but staying active in the performing arts through his long-standing membership with Redtwist Theater on the city's north side. He was drawn to play Hercule Poirot in Deerfield Theater's production of Murder on the Orient Express because it represented a rare, bucket-list opportunity, a role he felt uniquely suited for given his naturally deep, distinctive voice and age. Brian shared highlights from his career, including standout performances as Willie Loman in Death of a Salesman, Richard Nixon in Frost/Nixon (which moved a Watergate attorney to sympathize with Nixon), and his role in The Cripple of Inishmaan. He also recalled the joy of watching his young son perform in Les Misérables on Broadway. He expressed optimism about live theater's future in the face of AI, arguing that the irreplaceable human tension of a live performance — the possibility that something could go wrong — is something no AI can replicate.Performances at Caruso Auditorium, 1801 Montgomery Rd., Deerfield on:* Thursday, April 9 at 7:30pm* Fridays, April 3 and 10 at 7:30pm* Saturdays, April 4 and 11 at 2:00pm and 7:30pm* Sunday, April 12 at 2:00pmDeerfield TheaterPurchase TicketsWe're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make our upcoming shows a success!

Danielle Piccolomini is a Chicago transplant originally from Delaware who moved to the city in fall 2019, just before the COVID-19 pandemic. After nearly a 10-year hiatus from theater, during which she spent about seven years touring with a variety show through an unconventional college program. She returned to the stage by auditioning for Deerfield Theater's production of Inherit the Wind with just 20 minutes' notice. Since then, she has appeared in multiple Deerfield productions, including Beauty and the Beast, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (as Verruca Salt), and Shrek, and she now plays the Countess in Murder on the Orient Express — a Hungarian noblewoman who is beautiful, intelligent, medically trained, and central to helping the detective solve the murder. By day, Danielle manages a music school, and she credits her theatrical experience, particularly the ability to identify problems and solve them quickly, as a skill that directly benefits her professional life.Performances at Caruso Auditorium, 1801 Montgomery Rd., Deerfield on:* Thursday, April 9 at 7:30pm* Fridays, April 3 and 10 at 7:30pm* Saturdays, April 4 and 11 at 2:00pm and 7:30pm* Sunday, April 12 at 2:00pmDeerfield TheaterPurchase TicketsWe're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make our upcoming shows a success!

"Of all the books in the OT, Isaiah is perhaps the richest. Its literary grandeur is unequaled. Its scope is unparalleled. The breadth of its view of God is unmatched. In so many ways it is a book of superlatives. Thus, it is no wonder that Isaiah is the most quoted prophet in the NT, and along with Psalms and Deuteronomy, one of the most frequently cited of all OT books. Study of it is an opportunity for unending inspiration and challenge…it comes to us as a word from God, a revelation of the inevitable conflict between divine glory and human pride, of self-destruction which that pride must bring, and of the grace of God in restoring that destroyed humanity to himself. To read the book with the open eyes of the spirit is to see oneself, at times all too clearly, but also to see God whose holiness is made irresistible by his love." - Dr. John Oswalt from his two-volume commentary on the book of Isaiah. Dr. John Oswalt is our very special guest this week and next on Apologetics Profile. He will be taking us through some of the highlights of this magisterial theological work. His insights will better equip you to give a defense to non-believers who doubt the history and authorship of Isaiah. Dr. John Oswalt Asbury served on the faculty of Asbury Theological seminary from 1970 to 1982 as professor of Old Testament and Semitic languages, and again from 1989 to 1999 as Professor of Old Testament.

This month on the Deerfield Public Library Podcast, we are very happy to welcome writer and artist Annah Feinberg to talk about her hilarious and moving debut full-length graphic novel, Goodbye, Dolly! Narrated from beyond the grave by Dolly, the famous cloned sheep born in 1996, Goodbye, Dolly! tells the story of her six disaffected children (or as Annah calls them, "nepo lambs") as they search the Scottish countryside for their identity after their mother's death.  Annah Feinberg has written many comics and humor pieces for publications like The New Yorker, McSweeney's, Bon Appétit, and Awry, which often skewer the indignities of life ("The Utter Humiliation of Being a Body") and a Millennial combination of high self-regard and economic precarity ("Millennials Are the First Generation in History to Inspire Think Pieces About Millennials"). We discuss how these themes also shine through the very anxious sheep of Goodbye, Dolly! You'll also hear how Feinberg's unique art style, which features stock image backgrounds, brilliantly inhabits the exhausted detritus of our culture. Feinberg also grew up here in Deerfield, and we are thrilled we get to celebrate her work as her hometown library! Listen for a fun—and funny—conversation about existential crises through the perhaps unlikely characters of cartoon sheep.  Annah Feinberg writes and draws, often at the very same time. Her previous comics and humor writing have been featured in The New Yorker, McSweeney's, Bon Appétit, Awry, Mutha Magazine, The Hairpin, the collection Notes from the Bathroom Line, and in her zines The Shapelies, Food Source, and Me Myselves And.  Annah has developed adult animated shows for Showtime and AMC, wrote and produced short films Fetus Monster and The Workplace, and is currently developing another adult animated show, writing two live-action features and working on another graphic novel. Formerly a playwright, dramaturg, and Hollywood assistant, Annah has an MFA in Dramaturgy from Columbia University and was a founding member of theater activist group The Kilroys. Before that, she was a child who wrote and drew, often at the very same time.  You can check out Goodbye, Dolly! and other titles by Annah Feinberg here in our Podcast Collection, featuring books and other materials by past guests of the show. Find out more about Annah at her website or on her Instagram @annahfeinberg. We hope you enjoy our 69th interview episode! ​​Each month (or so), we release an episode featuring a conversation with an author, artist, or other notable guests from Chicagoland or around the world.

As general manager of Deer Valley, Perry developed an Angus program that balances all economically relevant traits in cattle that maintain structural soundness and phenotype. Perry and his wife established the Hickory House restaurant in 2014, and it specializes in serving 100% CAB-branded product.  Jim Brinkley, current vice chairman, has served on the American Angus Association Board of Directors for the past seven years. Along with their children, Crystal and Justin, Brinkley and his wife, Sherry, own 1,300 acres and 400 registered Angus cattle at Brinkley Angus Ranch (BAR).  Darrell Stevenson, treasurer of the American Angus Association Board and native of White Sulphur Spring, Mont., holds strong ties to the Angus breed and a history of activity in the Montana Angus Association. In 2019 Stevenson and his wife, Sara, expanded from Hobson onto a new unit in White Sulphur Springs to establish a later-calving herd operating as Stevenson Down T. Although separated by a mountain range, Darrell continues to breed and market genetics with Stevenson Angus Ranch. Mark Johnson, director on the American Angus Association Board, operates J&J Beef Genetics, LLC along with his wife, Brenda, and two daughters, Sydney and Charley, near Orlando, Okla. Johnson grew up on a centennial family farm in Deerfield, Mo. He attended Northeastern Oklahoma A&M junior college and later Oklahoma State University (OSU). He then completed his doctorate at Kansas State University in 1992. Since then, Johnson has been a professor of animal and food sciences at OSU and has served as supervisor of the OSU Purebred Beef operation for 32 years.

Season 9, Episode 12 (Originally released on Aug. 11th, 2025) Welcome back to the Shame List Picture Show! On this episode, Michael is joined by Derek Pfister, an award-winning Milwaukee-based cinematographer, editor, and founder of Chair on Stair Films. With over 20 years behind the camera, Derek's work includes the Cannes-screened Reasonable Doubt and the documentary series The Next Frame. Today, we're talking about Sidney Pollack's 1977 drama Bobby Deerfield. Al Pacino plays a cool, calculated Formula One driver whose confidence takes a hit after a teammate's brutal crash. Not long after, he meets Lillian (Marthe Keller), a free-spirited woman who pulls him into an unexpected romance. Instead of adrenaline-fueled action, this one focuses on mood, atmosphere, and quiet moments. Michael and Derek dig into the film's slow-burn style, its melancholy beauty, and whether it's a forgotten gem or a product of its time.

Welcome to New England Legends From the Vault – FtV Episode 115 –  Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger head to Deerfield, New Hampshire, in search of a 175-year-old mystery thundering from below ground. Between 1834 and 1846, a series of explosions emanating from below ground were reported in the southern part of town. The sounds were as loud as cannon fire, and the concussion could knock over a stone wall. The only problem is no source was ever found, and earthquakes don't behave this way. The events made the local papers for years. Scared locals pleaded with the scientific community for answers, but none could be found. Some speculate it could be secret underground mines, trolls, or even an underground UFO base.

I did a shorter than usual leg- 5.25 inches and 9.5 inch foot. The first sock 28 grams, using CC for toe and cuff, so I should have enough for a second pair of socks with this yarn.   On the Needles, Hook or Bobbins   Hot pink spinning Fiber: Mountain Vewe Coopworths Fiber in hot pink (no specific colorway name)- three 4oz bumps Ravelry Project Page Twist direction: singles = Z plied = S This means when I'm spinning, my wheel is spinning clockwise and when plying my wheel is moving counter-clockwise.
