This time in the grape miniseries -- a refresh on one of my all time favorite grapes -- Riesling. This versatile grape has a long history of quality, and is highly misunderstood by most people. I review the long and noble history of the grape, starting in 1435 and talk about how it wound up in places like the US and Australia, where it makes world class examples. I cover Riesling in the vineyard, in the cellar, and what makes a wine sweet or dry. I even explain a bit about the International Riesling Foundation scale! I hope this overview gives you a new apprecaition for this grape that can be dry, sparkling, off-dry, sweet, and everything in between. Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

Growing up in the central valley of California, we've inherited a sense of pride from our Greek parents and have continued to farm vineyards and make wine, incorporating the Mediterranean lifestyle and culture into our everyday lives. We don't make wines that are made to have an instant and powerful impact like tasting room wines; our wines are wines of finesse and elegance, and are made to be enjoyed with friends, family, and food. From the proprietors: We grew up growing winegrapes along with working at our parents' mom & pop grocery store. When we got older, we fell in love with wine and began working on our viticultural practices, and then decided to start our wine project. We are known for our old vine Zinfandel field blend vineyard called "Stampede Vineyard," as well as planting & producing some of the first Assyrtiko in California. We are trialing other Mediterranean varieties going forward as well.

Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is one of the best depictions of the creative process that I've ever seen, exploring where an artist's ideas come from: those sources, personal and environmental that are processed via one's family history, dreams, desires - and are then delivered through said artist's private relationship with their tools - (in this case the Tascam Portastudio, Echoplex reverb unit, and a water-damaged boombox). I was thrilled by that examination, and by Bruce's steadfast protection of his lo-fi masterpiece when it was being threatened by corporate pressure to compromise. Jeremy Allen White is one of America's finest exemplars of smoldering emotion, and the close ups on Springsteen's anguished face were a tour de force of inner conflict. The protean Stephen Graham as Bruce's complicated monster of a father found vivid expression with just a smattering of dialogue. And, Jeremy Strong - an actor capable of the deepest levels of immersion portrays Bruce's guardian angel of a manager, Jon Landau with such grace, and generous restraint that it made me cry. Kudos to all.The pace is pokey, and I personally could have done without the manufactured love story in which the actress, Odessa Young has the unenviable task of having to deliver clunky exposition, notably when she psychologizes Bruce for us. But, all in all, for a story that chronicles depression and child abuse, the darkness is mitigated by the knowledge that our hero emerges from this crucible to become a happily married family man and cultural hero, and create a timeless work of art. The Splendid Bohemians are honored to feature a couple of tributes to The Boss, which recognize his influence and influences: First, a duet with Bruce and Pete Seeger, the Patron Saint and Johnny Appleseed of folk music, singing Bruce's still relevant- (sadly)- homage to John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath: The Ghost of Tom Joad. And, we'll close with Ryan Adams' honorable rendition of Nebraska, the title song from those sources which are celebrated in Warren Zanes book and Scott Cooper's film

Peltier Winery & Vineyards is a fourth-generation farming family operation where the winery itself was established in 2001 by third-generation farmer Rodney Schatz and his wife Gayla in the heart of California's Lodi Appellation. What began in 1985 with Rodney's purchase of 40 acres of Old Vine Zinfandel has evolved into a 1,000+ acre sustainably certified operation producing over 30,000 cases annually across multiple wine collections. The winery's product innovation spans from rare Italian varietals like Teroldego and Vermentlno to modern offerings like Zante-a carbonated rose designed for today's conscious consumers with less than 1 gram of sugar per serving. Peltier distinguishes itself through complete estate control from vineyard to bottle, pioneering sustainable practices including being among the first to achieve 100% Lodi Rules certification and installing an innovative worm farm water treatment system that reduces energy use by 95%. Looking ahead, the winery continues expanding into new appellations like Clarksburg while maintaining their core phllosophy of minimal intervention winemaking that lets vineyard personality shine. Peltier consistently delivers award-winning quality across price points from $17-$60, earning accolades from Wine Enthusiast, San Francisco Chronicle, and international competitions. Their unique tasting room features a 24-wine WineStation system that eliminates waste while encouraging exploration of their diverse portfolio, embodying their brand promise of being "wine-smart with a wink"-knowledgeable experts who don't take themselves too seriously while delivering exceptional estate-grown wines that reflect four generations of farming heritage with three generations currently working together.

Jedná sa o “one of a kind” festival, na ktorý príde každý rok vyše 80 000 ľudí a neobývaná púšť sa na 7 dní stane sebestačné mesto. Burning Man je aj známy svojim “free spirit” a uvoľnenou atmosférou. Ako nám povedal samotný dnešný hosť DJ Tysker (Dávid Nemec) mnoho ľudí tam chodí nahých, organizujú sa tam rôzne orgie… To s mnoho ďalších naozaj neskutočných zážitkov si vypočujete v dnešnom Nerudacaste. Čo je to Nerudacast?Za posledné roky som stretol množstvo zaujímavých a šikovných ľudí, ktorí ma obohatili svojimi názormi, postojmi, alebo skúsenosťami. Rád zachádzam do tém, ktoré sú nevšedné. Témy, ktoré možno mnohí v sebe skrývame, no málokedy o nich hovoríme. Práve toto je mojim cieľom v tomto podcaste. Otvoriť témy, ktoré majú potenciál byť pre nás všetkých obohatením.

Life in a fallen world can feel sour: full of pain, injustice, and brokenness. In Isaiah 24–25, the prophet paints a vivid picture of judgment and renewal: a vineyard gone wild, a world consumed by fire, and yet a promise that God will restore what was lost.In this message from From Ruin to Redemption, Pastor Bob Erbig shows how we can live as “sweet grapes” in a sour world—by resting in God's coming judgment, singing a song of faith amid chaos, and preparing for the feast on His holy mountain. Out of the ashes, God brings joy, justice, and redemption.October 19, 2025

The October 15 edition of the AgNet News Hour featured one of California agriculture's most respected voices: Nat DiBuduo, former Allied Grape Growers president and lifelong champion of California's wine industry. Hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill welcomed DiBuduo for an honest discussion about the past, present, and uncertain future of the state's vineyards and farms. Known as the “godfather of the grape industry,” DiBuduo reflected on growing up among vineyards where Copper River now stands — a reminder of how quickly farmland has disappeared under urban expansion. “Back in the day, it was all tree fruit and grapes,” he said. “Now it's housing developments. Every generation needs a house, but we're losing farmland one field at a time.” DiBuduo, who also served 16 years on the Fresno City Planning Commission, explained how housing demand has transformed the Central Valley landscape. What was once prime farmland has become subdivisions, a change he sees as both inevitable and troubling. “Farmers can't compete with developers when it's this hard to farm in California,” he said. “Regulations, labor, and water costs keep rising — and people are just cashing out.” On the state of the wine industry, DiBuduo warned that California has lost roughly 100,000 acres of wine grapes in the last decade as markets shift and consumer demand changes. “When I was at Allied, we had around 500,000 acres,” he said. “Now it's closer to 400,000. You can drive through Fresno and Madera and see vineyards piled up waiting to be shredded.” He believes the wine industry must reinvent its marketing to connect with younger consumers. “The older generation is drinking less wine, and younger people don't know what to buy,” he said. “We need to make wine fun again — get people to tastings, use social media, and tell the story behind every label.” He also encouraged innovation in packaging, including canned and low-alcohol wines, to meet new consumer preferences. DiBuduo spoke passionately about farming challenges — from water scarcity to overregulation — and said California's leadership needs to rediscover balance. “We need legislators who actually understand agriculture,” he said. “Farmers aren't villains. They're the best environmentalists on the planet. We live on our farms; we take care of them for future generations.” He also echoed concerns about Proposition 50, warning that it would further silence rural voices. “It would be a disaster for the Central Valley and for California,” he said. “We need representation, not redistricting that wipes us out.” Despite the challenges, DiBuduo remains optimistic. “Don't give up,” he told listeners. “We've seen ups and downs before. The California farmer has always found a way through.”
Cambria is a women-owned, women-led producer of 100% certified sustainable, estate-grown Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the Santa Maria Valley AVA in Santa Barbara County, California.Founder Barbara Banke was an early champion of the region and established Cambria Winery in 1986. Barbara's two daughters are co-proprietors of the winery and the namesakes for the two main vineyards, Julia's Vineyard and Katherine's Vineyard. A winemaker's paradise, the estate is situated on a West Coast transverse valley a rare geological feature that funnels in Pacific Ocean breezes and blankets the vines in maritime fog, creating one of California's longest growing seasons. The ocean influences the soils as well, with seashells and fossils lending a signature Santa Maria spice note to the Pinot Noirs. Winemaker Jill Russell believes that “happy people make great wine” and passionately crafts wines that show the best of the estate and are prized for their texture, harmony, and energy. Jill leads vineyard and cellar crews who have worked at Cambria on average for more than 20 years and whose drive for excellence earned Cambria the title of a Top 100 Winery of 2020 from Wine & Spirits.
This week we cracked open Grape Voodoo — a live hash rosin from Moxie that smells like someone melted a grape Laffy Taffy inside a lemon grove. It's candy, citrus, and a little hoppy funk all rolled into one hit. The kind of strain that makes your nose high before your brain catches up.Right out of the jar it hits you with that nostalgic grape sweetness — think Laffy Taffy meets Jolly Rancher — backed by a bright citrus note and a soft earthy finish. The smoke's smooth, and the high comes on with a cerebral buzz that feels like focus with a soft edge. No jitters, no crash, just an alert calm that keeps you in the moment.If Super Lemon Haze is your loud friend who convinces you karaoke's a good idea, Grape Voodoo is the one next to them keeping your energy up and your anxiety down. It's upbeat without the chaos, creative without the scatter. Perfect for workouts, editing sessions, deep talks, or decompressing after Utah traffic.The effects hit mostly in the head — light pressure behind the eyes, that halo-around-your-skull feeling — and slowly ease into the body. It's a “let's get stuff done but also vibe” kind of high. The only catch? Cottonmouth. Keep a cold apple or sugar-free Jolly Rancher nearby.Now for the nerd stuff. This batch of Moxie's Grape Voodoo Live Hash Rosin tested at around 63 percent total THC, with THCa hitting 70.6 percent. Total CBG came in near 4 percent, with trace CBD at 0.14 percent. Dominant terpenes include limonene (15 mg/g), beta-caryophyllene (13 mg/g), humulene (4.5 mg/g), myrcene (3.6 mg/g), and beta-pinene (1.7 mg/g). It's solventless, ice-water-washed, and pressed into a golden, creamy badder that looks as good as it tastes. You get full terp flavor with no chemical residue, just pure plant energy.Grape Voodoo's that sweet spot strain — candy on the nose, clarity in the head, calm in the body. Whether you're chasing flow, focus, or just a smooth uplift, this one's a friendly spell worth casting.Get Grape VoodooSave on Dr Dabber with Code: Cannabisschool10Save on Storz & Bickel with Code : CannabisschoolSave on Santa Cruz Shredder with Code: CSP10Save on Bomb Erigs with Code: CSPScore 100 on your test

It's often said that one pretty sure route to happiness is to find something you love doing, and then make a career out of doing it, and seems to be exactly what Susie Dent has managed to do with her lifelong fascination with words. In her new book "The Roots We Share" Susie spreads her love of language. Fekky grew up in Lewisham, and used music as his escape from a life of gangs and violence. But during lockdown he, like many of us, found his green fingers and has since upped sticks and moved to the countryside to set-up his own farm, charting his experiences on his YouTube channel "Hood2Farm". Richard Sharp began an urban wine collective after a holiday in France to a vineyard opened his eye to the power of community projects. Grapes from allotments, balconies, public gardens all across London are harvested and brought together to create a single unique wine.Also, three time World Champion Plougher, John Hill, joins us LIVE from the British National Championships.Plus the Inheritance Tracks of Joanna Lumley.Presenter: Adrian Chiles Producer: Ben Mitchell

It's 1995, it's the summer and all you want to do is party so what do you need? You need a new album featuring Shaun Ryder to neck a load of drugs to and throw yourself around a dancefloor. We're joined by our lovely friend Stephen Hill from the Trve.Cvlt.Pop podcast to cast an eye across Black Grape's debut album 'It's Great When You're Straight... Yeah' and debate its party credentials among other things. The TCP lads have their own episode all about this album on their patreon page already so check it out if you want to hear more of Stephen's opinions. Or, indeed, simply less of ours. We also take the chance to chat about acts such as Moist, Goldie and of course Dog Eat Dog. And we threw in a fruit-based pop quiz in the middle of the episode for a bit of fun because why not, eh?

A rural crime expert tells us there's been an 'ideological and material' shift away from the problem in some police force areas. Dr Kate Tudor from Durham University says despite this there have been some positives in the fight against rural crime, following the advent of a National Rural Crime Team. All this week Farming Today is examining the issue.The warmest summer on record for the UK has meant good yields and high-quality grapes in our vineyards, and winemakers looking forward to a vintage year.It's the Conservative Party Conference this week, in Manchester, we hear what's on their policy agenda for farming and the countryside.Presenter: Charlotte Smith Producer: Sarah Swadling
Invented in 1897 and first sold in 1898, Grape-Nuts has a crazy history. From the time the inventor spent in a famous sanitarium through course cases and into a p[op culture phenomenon, Grape-Nuts has been through it all. It was used in war, exploration, and health crazes, and still in our cereal bowls.
It's been 13 years since I've done a grape miniseries on Tempranillo, so it was high time! This grape has come a long way in a decade +, proving that it has more nuance, terroir driven finesse, and versatility than it gets credit for. Tempranillo is now the third most widely planted wine grape in the world, at 231,000 ha/570,000 acres. It is not widely grown outside of Spain but there are growers in 17 countries making a go of it. That said, 88% of Tempranillo's vineyard area is in Spain and most of it is in the northern central parts, with Rioja and Ribera del Duero as the shining stars. Photo: Getty Images via Canva In this show, I go over the DNA and history of the grape and I discuss the many, many names it has. I talk about how it reacts to terroir and its behavior in the vineyard, and why it is so uniquely suited to the special areas in Spain where it thrives. I talk about winemaking and its effect on the grape and then I dive into the aging criteria of Spain (Generico, Crianza, Reserva, Gran Reserva) before going over the specific regions in Spain, Portugal, and the New World in which this grape does amazing things. This is one of the most important grapes in the world, and the mini-series is packed with info! Enjoy and go try some different wines, you will be surprised at how different they are based on all the factors I mention in the show. You can test yourself to see if you can figure out if it's the land or the hand of man that has an effect! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, Fritz continues his conversation with winemaker and Inside Winemaking podcast host Jim Duane on what it takes for grape growers to successfully step into winemaking. Following part one, which covered equipment, compliance, and basic chemistry, part two dives deeper into the realities of balancing vineyard management with winery responsibilities. Fritz and Jim explore how harvest decisions shift when you're making wine from your own fruit, weighing risks like weather and pests against the pursuit of higher quality. Jim shares how winemakers must rethink priorities, and they also break down which lab analyses should be done in-house versus outsourced. The discussion covers the intense workload during harvest, how to plan labor needs, and the value of building a team to avoid burnout. Jim stresses the importance of advance planning to manage the overlapping demands of the vineyard and the winery. He also highlights common mistakes growers face when starting out, including mismanaging SO2 additions, misinterpreting acidity, and relying on incomplete fermentation data. The episode closes with practical advice and resources for aspiring winemakers, from small-scale home fermentations to structured courses and workshops. Fritz and Jim encourage growers to start experimenting, make manageable mistakes, and seek mentorship to build both confidence and competence before fully scaling their operations. In this episode, you will hear: How harvest decisions shift when growers begin making their own wine Why budgeting for laboratory analyses is non-negotiable in commercial winemaking Common mistakes with SO2, acidity adjustments, and fermentation management The importance of advance planning to balance vineyard and winery demands Practical resources and training opportunities for new winemakers Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

The film Henry Fonda for President is showing this Thursday, October 2 at Duke University. Please join us if you are in the area!https://cinematicarts.duke.edu/screensociety/screenings/henry-fonda-president-alexander-horwath-2024More than any other individual, Henry Fonda was a symbol for better, more leftist, more social democratic America, from The Grapes of Wrath to 12 Angry Men. He even played an English professor who faced cancellation for teaching anarchist literature!Then in the 1960s, he was the literal father figure that New Left Hollywood figures Jane and Peter Fonda were rebelling against. And Henry let himself be used as a villain in Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West, playing the embodiment of rapacious American capitalism.Alexander Horwath weaves together all these threads into his essay film Henry Fonda for President. As we live in a world haunted by 50 years of neoliberal decay, the America Fonda represented seems further away than ever, even as his films still crackle with righteous rage against injustice. Alex and I talk about all these issues and more - I hope you enjoy the conversation, and see the film when you have a chance!
