Because he's a douche.MATTTarget is eliminating 1,800 roles as new CEO Michael Fiddelke gets set to take over the struggling retailer - WHO DO YOU BLAME?Current CEO Brian Cornell, who's “stepping down” to the role of Executive Chair - which is basically still CEO, just on the board and doesn't have to talk to employees anymore, so he can eliminate 1800 jobs and then fade away into a multimillion dollar unaccountable board roleFuture CEO Michael Fiddelke, who starts February 1, 2026, but is current COO and was forced to send the memo to employees telling them 8% of the workforce will be cutMonica Lozano, chair of the compensation and human capital management committee of the board, who's also on the BofA and Apple boards and is the most connected board member at a highly connected board - does the chair of the human capital committee have to weigh in on firing?OpenAI - the memo makes zero mention of the fact that part of Target's problem is that it shit on gays and blacks because of a feckless internet toad named Robby Starbuck, but feels very written by AI which would account for phrases like:“Adjusting our structure is one part of the work ahead of us. It will also require new behaviors and sharper priorities that strengthen our retail leadership in style and design and enable faster execution so we can: Lead with merchandising authority; Elevate the guest experience with every interaction; and Accelerate technology to enable our team and delight our guests.”Does anyone know what that word salad actually means?

ZechmeisterThe governance committee - James Snee, the now retired CEO who retired somehow in January but the company still hasn't found a permanent replacement 9 months later - so they're being run by Jeff Ettinger, interim CEO? Chair Gary C. Bhojwani, Elsa A. Murano, Ph.D., William A. Newlands (also lead director), Debbra L. Schoneman, Steven A. WhiteThe one black guy on the board - Steve White - who works at Comcast, is somehow qualified to be on Hormel board, and is on BOTH the audit committee AND governance committeeThe conveyor belt that spit pieces of metal as large as 17mm long into “fire braised chicken” sent to hotels and restaurantsCervoMed appoints McKinsey veteran David Quigley to board of directors - WHO DO YOU BLAME? Board is 2 VCs, a longtime biotech CFO, and five MD/PhDs. And among those 8, there are just two woman - the co-founder/wife of the CEO and a VC.

So if he throws a tantrum and leaves, isn't it bro's fault? This is a binary trade - Musk gets extra pay/control, stock goes up and isn't de-meme'd. Musk doesn't, he leaves and the stock is de-meme'd and drops arguably by 66% or more to be more like a car company with some tech. So do we blame investors, no matter what they do? They meme'd the stock in the first place, he couldn't get a trillion extra dollars if they hadn't pumped up the stock - and now they could vote with humanity (no pay) or meme capitalism (pay)!Techbro middle school conservatism - is this Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan's fault? A Yale economist paper suggests that Musk's politics cost between 1 and 1.26 million Tesla car sales… Would we even be worried if Musk stayed out of politics?

Today on America in the MorningTrump Asia Trade Trip President Trump is in the Far East for talks with leaders there as he seeks to firm up relations with allies in Asia, including the Chinese, and appears to be making some progress on the trade and tariff front.  John Stolnis has more from Washington.   Airport Delays Worsen The situation at the nation's airports is about to get even murkier as this is the week that air traffic controllers will not be receiving their scheduled paychecks starting tomorrow.  A lack of air traffic controllers forced Los Angeles International Airport to have a ground stop of all flights on Sunday, and more than a-third of all flights at Orlando, New Orleans, St. Louis, Newark-Liberty, LaGuardia, and Dallas were delayed in the past 24 hours – just a part of the more than 8,000 flights experiencing delays across America yesterday.  Ed Donahue reports.   Louvre Robbery Arrests Arrests have been made over the weekend in what has been called the crime of the century, after the brazen theft of priceless jewels from the Louvre Museum in Paris.  Correspondent Julie Walker reports on the heist that rocked the world.   TikTok Deal A deal on the future of TikTok is set to be finalized before the end of the week, according to the Trump administration.  Correspondent Clayton Neville reports.    Navy Crashes Two US Navy aircraft from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz crashed during separate operations in the South China Sea on Sunday.    Massive Recalls Food giant Hormel announced a recall of nearly 5 million pounds of chicken products following complaints that pieces of metal were found in food.  And that's not the only situation the USDA is eying.  Correspondent Lisa Dwyer reports on a Jerky recall.      Latest On Government Shutdown Leaders in Washington say the impacts of a continued government shutdown are becoming more evident.  Correspondent Clayton Neville reports that air traffic controllers won't be receiving their paychecks tomorrow, and by the weekend, the government will stop paying for food aid, including SNAP.   Plans For Newsom & Harris Donald Trump isn't even one year into his second term, but a lot of Democrats are being mentioned as candidates for 2028, and a couple of them have acknowledged their interest.  The details from correspondent Rich Johnson.   Latest In The Middle East In the Middle East, Hamas says they are expanding their search for the remains of 13 Israelis they kidnapped, bodies that were promised to be returned to Israel as a part of the first phase of the ceasefire agreement.  Correspondent Julie Walker reports that while President Trump is assuring the world that the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will continue, he warned the terror group there could be military action against them unless they stick to the agreement.   Melissa Doubles In Size The warnings are dire for Jamaica, Haiti, and Cuba as Hurricane Melissa continues to gain strength, becoming a powerful Category 4 on Sunday and expected to be even stronger before it slices through the heart of Jamaica tomorrow.    Finally   They say an apple a day can keep the doctor away, but a new study finds that listening to music each day can lower the risk for dementia.

Hey there, fuckos. Welcome back to another Monday Motivation—your weekly reminder that your brain is not just for storing old passwords and random Die Hard quotes.I'm FWACATA—your art dad, your creative comrade, your podcaster-shouter of truths.And today's episode? The Joy of Learning.Not the homework kind. Not the “show your work on the math problem” kind.I'm talking about learning as fuel. The good shit.Now, I know what you're thinking:“Learning? Didn't I leave that back in high school, right next to my bad haircut and my crippling acne?”Yeah, me too. But here's the thing—learning isn't punishment. It's fuel. It's rocket fuel for your brain-car. Without it? You're just Fred Flintstoning your way through projects, barefoot on gravel, wondering why everything feels stale.When I was working for the Hormel family as an art archivist—yes, that Hormel family—my boss used to say, “I don't want to hear ‘I don't know.' I want to hear ‘I'll find out.'” That stuck with me. “I don't know” isn't an answer. It's an excuse. And excuses are where ideas go to die.Here's a dirty little secret: Talent is just passion times time.That's it. No magic, no divine spark from the art gods. Just passion, multiplied by time, multiplied by the hours you put in.Learning is what accelerates that equation. It's the turbo boost, the NOS in your Fast & Furious brain.And here's the kicker: the learning doesn't even have to be “useful.”Saul Alinsky studied sea urchins. David Bowie read about space exploration.Me? I spent an entire afternoon learning about raccoons. And now I can't stop drawing them like they're plotting world domination.Sometimes the weirdest, most random knowledge is exactly what sparks the coolest ideas.Take Kim Jung Gi—the late, great Korean artist. Absolute monster talent. Guy could draw helicopters, motorcycles, and entire battlefields straight out of his head.Why? Because he studied everything. He took apart scooters and sketched every part. He drew the same engines, gears, and pistons over and over until he understood them.That's the power of learning. When you absorb knowledge, it becomes part of your mental toolbox. You're not just copying anymore—you're creating.Look, learning keeps you alive. Without it, your brain turns into that one potato in the pantry—the one you forgot about—that sprouts alien tentacles and freaks you out when you find it.Curiosity is oxygen. It keeps your art fresh, keeps your perspective sharp, and keeps you from turning into that jaded asshole who thinks they've got nothing left to learn.So here's my challenge for you this week:Pick one thing—just one—that you don't know… and dive into it.Learn a new recipe.Read about an artist you've never heard of.Watch a tutorial on how to play the ukulele. (You don't even need to own one. That's not the point.)The point isn't mastery. The point is movement. Learning humbles you. And it energizes you.So celebrate the joy of learning. Stay curious. Stay weird. Stay that person who always asks why—even if it annoys the hell out of everyone around you.Because curiosity isn't childish. Curiosity is how you stay alive. And when you pour that new knowledge into your art—your writing, your music, your Nicholas Cage hot-glue sculptures—you'll find inspiration waiting like an old friend.That's it for this week's Monday Motivation.Stay curious. Stay weird. And as always—be good.

No single industry in the American economy relies more on immigrant labor than livestock and meat production. The shift began a half-century ago as the influence of labor unions, and wages, declined. Fred de Sam Lazaro reports on how this change has played out in one Minnesota community that witnessed a landmark strike 40 years ago.

We start with headlines from PetSmart, Airgas, Italian dock and textile workers, the WNBA, Amazon, Raven Software, and Hormel. For our main stories, this week we really focus in on the attacks on public workers, starting across the pond with the ruthless austerity facing doctors at the NHS. Next we discuss Trump's move to tear up union contracts at the VA and EPA. We also dive into the attempt to roll back reforms won through the working class struggle in the 1960s and 70s, removing crucial regulations. Finally, we dive into the specific assault on teachers, where it comes from, and whether it's really as "populist" as our media would like us to believe.

The company says a former employee took proprietary recipes and other information to his new job.

My awkward moment at Coors Field. The worst driver just got her license in South Korea. Wiener war - Hormel says Johnsonville stole recipes, trade secrets in lawsuit. Gravy wrestling in England. A professional girlfriend makes $1,300 per date with men. - I think I could do something similar. Travis Hunter officially signed his four-year, $46.65 million fully guaranteed contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The leader of the state's flagship university directed all departments to cut their budgets between 5 percent and 7 percent next year. Wisconsin's federal lawmakers split along party lines in their reactions to the U.S. air strike on Iran. And, Johnsonville is being sued by a competitor over alleged effort to poach employees and share trade secrets.

I bet you didn't know there's an underground meat mafia that's currently at war, so we're here to tell you all about it! This week Carson and Gavin break the news of a sausage battle between Hormel and Johnsonville that goes way deeper than any of us could have expected. Plus we watched many many clips, Gavin brought back his famous Tech-Know World that will have a major impact on YOU, the boys delved into a Thought of the Week, and Carson spilled the beans on 28 Years Later.

Researchers Find Links Between Exposure to Carcinogens and Aromatics Released from Gasoline and Breast Cancer Risk

On this episode, we're joined by Carolyn Gahn who is the Senior Director of Mission & Advocacy at Applegate.   Applegate has just announced that they've achieved their ambitious goal to source 100% of the beef in their beef hot dogs from certified regenerative grasslands. By implementing this change, Applegate is helping to transition 10.8 million acres of grasslands to certified regenerative.   Carolyn leads Applegate's regenerative agriculture initiatives, and she joins us to share how the brand has gone from a single experimental product to transforming its entire hot dog portfolio to be certified regenerative.   We explore what made Applegate double down on regen even when consumers didn't fully understand it, and how this shift reflects the brand's long-standing mission of “changing the meat we eat.” Carolyn gives us a transparent look at the supply chain complexity, the multiple certifications chosen, and how Applegate's position within Hormel is actually helping move regen efforts forward at scale.   We also dig into Applegate's nutrient density testing and human health trials, their efforts to create true market signals for farmers, and how storytelling is evolving to make regen accessible and meaningful for everyday consumers.   Episode Highlights:  

Who to blame: Hormel's CEO search, “eat now pay later”, DOI vs. DEI, and Signal's woke board

In this episode of the AgNet News Hour, hosts Sabrina Halvorson and Lorrie Boyer discuss Cargill's $32.5 million settlement in a class action lawsuit over turkey price fixing. The discussion covers the implications of price fixing in the turkey and broader poultry industries, including the involvement of multiple major companies such as Butterball, Hillshire Brands, Hormel, Kraft Foods, Jenny O Turkey, Purdue Farms, and Prestage Farms. The hosts delve into the intricacies of market transparency, the impact on independent growers, and the behind-the-scenes challenges faced by the poultry industry. The case, which started in 2019, underlines the complexity and length of litigation processes in agricultural sectors. Katie Driver, the Technical Services Manager for UPL in Northern California, discusses the increasing issue of fungicide resistance in almonds. She outlines best practices for managing resistance, such as rotating fungicide groups and using multi-site fungicides. Katie highlights the importance of product stewardship and good cultural practices like proper irrigation, pruning, and sanitation.

Some of our favorite brands— Hormel, Levi's, Hasbro, and Starbucks—are paring down offerings to be more efficient and save money. By offering less options of a product it helps keep prices down for consumers. Then, the North Korean troops deployed to Russia and Ukraine have for the first time in their lives unfettered access to the world wide web. Reliable sources say the young lads are “gorging” themselves on porn!

Is all hope lost when beloved natural foods' companies are bought out by Big Food? In today's episode of Blasphemous Nutrition, Aimee dives headfirst into the heated discussions from the natural health community, dissecting the nuanced implications of PepsiCo's buyout of Siete Foods and urging listeners to look beyond surface-level reactions. As she navigates through consumer fears and industry realities, Aimee brings her trademark candidness to the forefront, challenging black-and-white perceptions with well-articulated clarity.Aimee elucidates how acquisitions by multinational food corporations have become a pattern in the industry, citing examples like General Mills acquiring Annie's Homegrown and Hormel's purchase of Applegate Farms. The episode reveals her skepticism about the true intentions of such behemoths, while also encouraging a broader perspective on potential benefits like improved distribution and stable product pricing. According to Aimee, the ultimate power rests with informed consumers – one who remains vigilant, continues to scrutinize labels, and leverages purchasing power to hold corporations accountable.Key Takeaways:Siete Foods' acquisition by PepsiCo has sparked debate within the natural foods community, raising concerns over product quality and corporate ethics.Despite skepticism, there are potential benefits to the acquisition, including better distribution and stable pricing.Consumers are urged to maintain vigilance and exercise their power through informed purchasing choices.Aimee warns against demonizing families behind such businesses and advocates for understanding the complexities of such decisions.Find Research Citations and Transcript at Blasphemous Nutrition on SubstackWork with AimeePhotography by: Dai Ross PhotographyPodcast Cover Art: Lilly Kate CreativeCHAT ME UP: let me know what's on your mind by texting here!

In this episode, Dr. G dives into the recent $1.2 billion acquisition of Siete Foods by PepsiCo and what it could mean for the health-conscious consumer. Siete, known for its grain-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free Mexican-American-inspired products, has gained a loyal following for its commitment to allergen-friendly foods. But now that PepsiCo is taking the reins, can we be sure the quality and authenticity will remain intact? Dr. G also reveals several health and wellness brands you may not realize were acquired by major corporations, including Annie's, RXBAR, and Garden of Life. With these takeovers come concerns about product changes—like the introduction of GMOs, preservatives, or shifting ingredient quality. #pepsi #health #wellness  Show Notes: 00:00:00 - Pepsi Acquires Siete Foods for $1.2 Billion 00:00:15 - Overview of Health Food Company Acquisitions 00:00:47 - Introduction to Siete Chips and Their Allergen-Free Appeal 00:01:24 - Implications of Pepsi's Acquisition of Siete Chips 00:02:05 - Companies That Changed Products After Being Acquired 00:02:37 - Understanding Certificates of Analysis 00:03:22 - Notable Acquisitions: Annie's, Kashi, and Applegate Farms 00:04:49 - The Controversy of Burt's Bees Acquisition 00:05:05 - Garden of Life's Acquisition by Nestlé 00:08:33 - Overview of Other Notable Acquisitions in the Health Food Sector 00:09:18 - Bare Snacks Acquisition by Pepsi 00:09:58 - Changes in Whole Foods Post-Amazon Acquisition 00:10:16 - Ethical Concerns with Acquired Brands 00:11:03 - The Impact of Nestlé on Acquired Companies 00:12:04 - Kashi's Formula Changes After Kellogg's Acquisition 00:13:02 - Odwalla's Decline Post-Coca Cola Acquisition 00:13:37 - Annie's Products and Subtle Changes in Quality 00:14:54 - Applegate Farms and Hormel's Influence 00:15:40 - Garden of Life's Shift After Nestlé Acquisition 00:16:47 - Honest Tea's Changes Under Coca Cola 00:17:20 - Other Supplement Brands Affected by Acquisitions 00:18:51 - Pharmaceutical Companies Buying Organic Brands 00:19:19 - Reasons Behind Small Companies Selling Out 00:19:42 - Overview of Company Acquisitions in Health Food 00:20:09 - The Process of Companies Buying Out Smaller Brands 00:20:32 - Ethical Considerations When Supporting Acquired Brands 00:21:11 - Personal Values and Company Ethics 00:22:06 - Different Perspectives on Supporting Acquired Brands 00:22:36 - Alternatives to Purchased Products 00:23:10 - Monitoring Ingredient Changes After Acquisition 00:24:27 - Importance of Trust in Product Quality 00:25:30 - Understanding Certificates of Analysis (COA) 00:27:25 - Interpreting Heavy Metal Levels in Products 00:29:04 - Proposition 65 and Heavy Metal Standards 00:29:57 - Conclusion and Thank You === Thank you to our sponsors!  BON CHARGE Click here and use code DRG for 15% off storewide!

Ralph welcomes back Chuck Collins, heir to the Hormel fortune and cofounder of Patriotic Millionaires to discuss his latest report “The True Cost of Billionaire Philanthropy” which asks the question, “Would society be better off if billionaires just kept their money and paid their fair share of taxes?” Plus, we speak briefly about the situation in Gaza with Lara Friedman, president of the Foundation for Middle East Peace and Francesco DeSantis keeps us up to date with the latest news with his segment “In Case You Haven't Heard.”Chuck Collins directs the Charity Reform Initiative at the Institute for Policy Studies, where he also co-edits Inequality.org.  Mr. Collins co-founded the Patriotic Millionaires and United for a Fair Economy, and he is the author of Born on Third Base and The Wealth Hoarders: How Billionaires Pay Millions to Hide Trillions.Here's our analysis: for every dollar that Elon Musk or Bill Gates - some of these billionaires - give, the rest of us chip in 74 cents in lost tax revenue. And that's at the federal level... So, these are our tax dollars at work. And yet they're completely unaccountable in terms of where the money goes.Chuck CollinsThe financial industry, the wealth advisors—I call them the wealth defense industry—the tax attorneys and accountants. They have started to capture corners of what we think of as philanthropy with the same kind of worldview—capital preservation, tax minimization, passing on as much wealth to the next generation. So, you see ultra-wealthy people creating family foundations. And the most important thing to realize is this is taxpayer-subsidized private power.Chuck CollinsWe need to change the laws governing philanthropy. The framework that we are living with now is from 1969, which was a zenith of relative equality in the United States. We wouldn't have necessarily known that 50 years later we would be living in an oligarchy where billionaires would use their charity as an extension of their influence and power as aggressively as they are now.Chuck Collins[Shareholder resolutions are] a good way to shine some light on the murky, narcissistic, self-enriching practices of these executives who often do so at the expense of their own companies in a conflict of interest. It would be good if this discussion sparked something like that… It's not a structural reform of our political economy, to be sure. But it does alleviate some of the poverty, some of the health care necessities, the housing necessities in the areas where these corporations operate.Ralph NaderLara Friedman is the President of the Foundation for Middle East Peace. She is a leading authority on the Middle East, with particular expertise on U.S. foreign policy in the region, on Israel/Palestine, and on the way Middle East and Israel/Palestine-related issues play out in Congress and in U.S. domestic politics, Ms. Friedman is a former officer in the U.S. Foreign Service, with diplomatic postings in Jerusalem, Washington, Tunis and Beirut. She also served previously as the Director of Policy and Government Relations at Americans for Peace Now.In Case You Haven't Heard with Francesco DeSantis1. The AP reports Hamas has released a third group of hostages – including 14 Israelis and the first American hostage – as part of a four-day truce with Israel. In return, Israel has released 39 Palestinian prisoners. The Biden administration has expressed that their goal is to extend the ceasefire as long as possible. This about-face in administration policy is a testament to the power of the sustained protest and public pressure campaigns in favor of a ceasefire. However, this truce is scheduled to expire at the end of this week.2. Going further, Vermont Senator Peter Welch has called for an “indefinite ceasefire,” following the horrific shooting of three Palestinian-American students in Burlington, Vermont. Senator Welch writes “The ceasefire must be extended...to stop the bombing and prevent further loss of civilian life. The United States cannot condone a resumption of the bombing when it causes death and injury to so many civilians.” It is noteworthy that the other Senator from Vermont, Bernie Sanders, still refuses to call for a ceasefire.3. The Nation has published a piece on the genocide in Gaza that was pulled from the Harvard Law Review at the last moment. The opening lines of this article read “Genocide is a crime. It is a legal framework. It is unfolding in Gaza. And yet, the inertia of legal academia, especially in the United States, has been chilling. Clearly it is much easier to dissect the case law rather than navigate the reality of death. It is much easier to consider genocide in the past tense rather than contend with it in the present. Legal scholars tend to sharpen their pens after the smell of death has dissipated and moral clarity is no longer urgent.”4. The Intercept's Ryan Grim has shared an excerpt from his new book The Squad: AOC and the Hope of a Political Revolution in which he seeks to explain Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman's intransigent stance in favor of Israel. Essentially, Grim argues that Fetterman made a deal with AIPAC and the Democratic Majority For Israel, with Fetterman pledging opposition to the BDS movement and support for unconditional military aid to Israel, and in exchange, “DMFI and AIPAC stayed out of his race.”5. Independent journalist Séamus Malekafzali reports “A member of Germany's ruling coalition from the Greens wants all German media to sign a pledge to support Israel and its ‘right to exist', similar to how Axel Springer's media organizations (like Politico) do.” To learn more about POLITICO's new ultra-Zionist German ownership, check out the first issue of the Capitol Hill Citizen.6. The Prospect is out with a blockbuster article on the first major anti-trust case in 25 years, U.S. v. Google. This piece traces how what was once billed as the “Trial of the Century” became “the Secret Trial,” and stresses the testimony of Al-Amyn Sumar, legal counsel for the New York Times who “listed the factors that separated this case from any other his legal team had seen before… [including] numerous closed-door proceedings, withholding of public evidence, and extensive confidentiality claims by companies (not just Google, but secondary parties to the case like Microsoft and Apple) that were granted all too liberally by the judge. [Sumar noted] Even access to trial transcripts were scant, trickling out weeks after examinations.” Sumar capped this off by saying “this simply can't be the best way to go about the legal process.”7. The Prospect also reports the Biden-appointed chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Rostin Behnam, is attempting to implement a Trump-era rule that would “roll back Dodd-Frank protections for swap trades, a major class of derivatives that led directly to the 2008 financial crisis, by relaxing margin requirements for certain categories of investment funds.” Several Democrats are coming out in opposition to this move. A letter from Senator Sherrod Brown decries this as “a step in the wrong direction… [which would] undermine the goals of Dodd-Frank.”8. A third story from the Prospect focuses on deceptive Medicare Advantage plans, and specifically how they have been able to legally circumvent ACA protections covering pre-existing conditions. Put simply, if one enrolls in a Medicare Advantage program before age 65, then wishes to transition to traditional Medicare, they can be forced to undergo “underwriting” or medical health screening. As of now, only four states – New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Maine – prevent Medigap, the Medicare supplemental insurance that covers the 20 percent of medical expenses not covered by Medicare, from underwriting Medicare Advantage patients attempting to switch back to traditional Medicare. As the article explains “The millions of Americans not living in those states are trapped in Medicare Advantage, because Medigap plans are legally able to deny them insurance coverage.” Yet another instance of the pernicious influence of Medicare Advantage on the health of American seniors.9. The Tuscon Sentinel has published a story which exemplifies the folly of the so-called school choice movement. Last year, Arizona became the first state to offer all families in the state public dollars to spend at private educational institutions. In response, nearly all private schools raised their tuition rates. As the article notes, “Critics…cite the tuition increases as evidence of what they've warned about for years: Universal school choice, rather than giving students living in poverty an opportunity to attend higher-quality schools, would largely serve as a subsidy for the affluent.”10. Finally, radical and cartoonish right-wing Libertarian Javier Milei has won the presidential election in Argentina. According to the AP, Milei has vowed to implement his signature “Chainsaw Plan” for “wholesale reform of the state to slash public spending, scrap half the government's ministries, sell state-owned companies and eliminate the central bank.” It remains to be seen how far Milei will go with this program, but signs point to turbulent times ahead in Argentina.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Usually, the middle is not even warm and the ends are black.  Served over a cold bun and dressed in lukewarm Hormel chili with a little shredded cheddar cheese on top, maybe a few slivers of onion, and dinner is served.  I'm really not mocking it and am serious when I say I love that meal; however, I have also come to appreciate that camping food is also a great opportunity for switching things up a bit and trying out some new recipes. A little creative planning and some ingredient preparation can lead to some phenomenal camp meals. Some of the best fish dinners I have experienced were just foil-wrapped catch-of-the-day trout but paired with the simple addition of fresh rosemary or tarragon. The same goes for this pineapple and bear camp burger which is also very easy to make while camping. The sauce can be prepared at home, so there is no need to take mayonnaise, vinegar, and chipotle peppers on the camping trip. The patties could also be mixed, formed, and packed grill-ready in Ziploc bags and the pineapple comes conveniently canned.  The rest of the ingredients are easy to pack and quickly cook over the grill. A little imagination and preparation groundwork at home allows for a gourmet, restaurant-quality burger under the stars. Enjoy!

After hearing this podcast, you may start to notice pineapple symbolism in weird and curious places.  Let's get into it.  To start off, let's discuss what a pineapple actually is… I mean, we all know what one looks like, but where and how do they grow? Pineapples are in the bromeliad family and grow as a perennial small shrub with tough agave-like leaves, growing about 4 feet tall. Individual scarlet flowers, about 200 on an average plant, form small fruits, which fuse together to form a multiple fruit. That's right, every pineapple you see is a collection of 200 individual fruits! Other examples of multiple fruits are figs, breadfruit, and mulberries. Though the main fruit is grown on a short, thick stem, suckers may grow, causing fruit to grow off the sides of the plant.  The wild pineapple originated not in Hawaii, but in Southern Brazil, near the current border with Paraguay. There, the Tupi peoples enjoyed the fruit, calling it nanas, or ‘excellent fruit'. The Tupi also used the pineapple to ferment a type of wine, create medicines, and even craft poison arrows.  Tupi and Carib peoples traded and raided, eventually spreading the fruit to the Amazon delta, up through Central America and into the Caribbean.   When our favourite guy, Christopher Colombus landed on current-day Guadeloupe in 1493 on his second voyage, he encountered pineapples growing and being eaten by the inhabitants of the island. He took some pineapples with him across the ocean after enslaving and brutalizing the natives there. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In rural northern Idaho in the winter of 2013-2014, Syringa Mobile Home Park's water system was contaminated by sewage, resulting in residents' water being shut off for 93 days. By summer 2018 Syringa had closed, forcing residents to relocate or face homelessness.  In Trailer Park America: Reimagining Working-Class Communities (Rutgers UP, 2023), Dr. Leontina Hormel chronicles how residents dealt with regulatory agencies, frequent boil order notices, threats of closure, and class-based social stigma over this period. Despite all this, what was seen as a dysfunctional, ‘disorderly' community by outsiders was instead a refuge where veterans, women heads of households, and people with disabilities or substance use disorders were supported and understood. The embattled Syringa community also organized to defend the rights and dignity of residents and served as a site for negotiating with local government, culminating in a class-action lawsuit that reached the federal level. The experiences Syringa residents faced in this conservative, predominately white region of the United States are emblematic of the growing national and global crisis in affordable housing and home ownership, with declining work conditions and incomes for the working-class.
