In this episode we're joined by Dr. James Barker, who is Associate Professor in the Department of History at Western Kentucky University and the author of Writing and Rewriting the Gospels: John and the Synoptics (published by Eerdmans). In this episode we discuss Dr. Barker's theory of Gospel development, which entails the idea that each of our canonical Gospels were aware of the previously written ones, meaning not only that Luke used Matthew, but moreover that John knew of each of the Synoptic Gospels. We discuss some of the evidence for this, the developmental implications of this insight for Christology, among other things, and much more. Team members on the episode from The Two Cities include: Dr. John Anthony Dunne, Rev. Dr. Chris Porter, and Dr. Kris Song. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

This is a Biblical Time Machine first—a historical reenactment of how the gospel writers wrote (and rewrote) the books of Mark, Matthew, Luke and John. Our guest James Barker made his own scrolls, wax tablets and ancient writing implements to see what the gospel-writing process was really like. It gave him all sorts of fascinating new insights into how the gospel authors worked and how they used and reused each other's material. You really have to check out James' terrific new book, Writing and Rewriting the Gospels: John and the Synoptics. JOIN US FOR THE BTM BOOK CLUBThe next meeting of the Biblical Time Machine Book Club will be Saturday, February 22 at 12pm Eastern / 5pm UK. We'll be discussing a fascinating scholarly article by Nathanael Vette, who was the guest on our episode about Judaism and the Gospels After 70 CE.

In this episode I talk with Dr. James Barker, associate professor of New Testament at Western Kentucky University, who authored the brand-new book Writing and Rewriting the Gospels: John and the Synoptics, out now on Eerdmans. In this book Dr. Barker discusses the synoptic problem, the question of the literary relationship between Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and offers a defense of the Farrer hypothesis, which argues Mark was the first gospel to be written, Matthew used Mark, and Luke used both. He discusses ancient rhetorical techniques, writings styles and media, and the ‘trajectory' of editing. He then proposes that John both knew and used the synoptics, and that the development of early Christology helpfully illustrates the literary development of the gospels.    Media Referenced:Writing and Rewriting the Gospels: https://a.co/d/aQAdPq4James Barker Academia: https://wku.academia.edu/JamesBarker  The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker our Product Lead for Straights. James starts by discussing the changes we have seen in the market and what opportunities there might be in regards to the agriculture commodity complex. Firstly we've seen an opportunity on the wheat market quicker than we possibly thought. Markets have moved down £15 or so in the recent week, mainly following 10 consecutive days of Chicago wheat trading to the downside and global markets following. This seems due to plenty of improved weather stories, alongside a few geopolitical decisions to help aid the short term outlook on global wheat.Moving onto the corn market, it has been fairly stagnant due to the good central US weather. There are no signs of drought at the minute and early crop harvest ratings have gone up to 75% good to excellent in the USDA predictions, which is a six year high. We have seen some downside movement in the proteins market. It isn't to the same extent of cereals but with uncertainty in Soya for 2025 still lingering and a lack of availability in the distillers market, Rapemeal continues to be well supported with continued sales.Have a listen to hear James talk more in-depth on these topics and what else is happening in the market!As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

Subscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeThe Food Stamps have been cooking onstage behind the redheaded songwriter pretty much since he left Appalachia and began touring as a full unit. These loyal road dogs have worn the rubber off the tires touring with Mr. Childers. First, they were strictly a live band enlisted to recreate and recharge the material from his first three studio albums Bottles and Bibles (2011), Purgatory (2017), and Country Squire (2019). But with the last two studio records—the triple-album, gospel-country opus Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven? and last year's classic-meets-contemporary Rustin' in the Rain—the Food Stamps went from being his road-warrior comrades to eating big time alongside their leader onstage and in the studio. During Childers' headlining arena run and before his second sold-out night at the Bridgestone Arena in downtown Nashville, the Food Stamps' CJ Cain (acoustic/electric guitar/mandolin), Jesse Wells (electric guitar/mandola/banjo/baritone/fiddle), James Barker (guitar/pedal-steel), and Craig Burletic (electric bass/double bass) invited PG's Perry Bean inside their “living room” stage set. When we last chatted with them in 2019, the boys were burning through the small-club circuit with many of the same tone tools still in their rig today, but as venues grow and tours extend, gear needs change and the arsenal capacity increases. In this hour-long Rundown, we cover all their fresh friends, old standbys, and everything else these four buckaroos require to make music that matters.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker and Chris Pickles from our Procurement Team. Chris starts by discussing the recent volatility in regards to the wheat market and how the situation in the Black Sea is affecting the market.  James then talks through the USDA planting intentions report which may show the reduced acreage on the potential for corn and an increase in Soya for the next season. Moving onto mid proteins, prices on the nearby have increased by £25 to £40 a tonne on Rapemeal in the UK over the last 5 or 6 trading days, which has been the largest increase we have seen for a while. To fill the gap we have plenty of Expeller from the Stratford site and also NovaPro which are at very competitive levels. Have a listen to hear the team talk more in-depth on these topics and what else is happening in the market! We hope you have a lovely Easter weekend! As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

As Christians we are called to make disciples and to influence every sphere of culture while we do that. These three incredible pathfinders will share their personal stories and Biblical truth on how to do that.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker and Laura Hana from our Procurement Team. James starts by discussing Friday's USDA report and how it has affected the markets. Laura then delves into the fact that although on the day traded levels of Soya look better than Rapemeal on units of protein, Rape Extract / Expeller continues to sell due to it being available for the winter and an opportunity to enhance your sustainability credentials. We have seen people take advantage of this price, and summer cover is high. Soya will not be available from Jan 25 onwards, and it is really worth while looking at alternatives such as NovaPro.   Moving onto cereals, we are seeing some local tightness. If you are looking to take cover on your cereals, it's a great option to look at products such as biscuitmeal and bread.  With Easter coming up in 3 weeks, please give us a call to get any products booked in that you will need over that time period!  Have a listen to the team talk more in-depth on these topics and what else is happening in the market! As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

Ha sido un año en el que los cambios se han reflejado con claridad en las propuestas de nuestros artistas favoritos, siendo en cierta forma el espejo de una sociedad como la norteamericana, con cambios constantes y una polarización evidente en la que los compositores y los músicos toman partido como nunca antes había ocurrido dando cuenta de todo aquello que ocurre cotidianamente a su alrededor, como ocurría en los comienzos de la historia de la música tradicional. Es un regreso a las raíces en toda regla. En este último podcast del año queremos compartir una docena de canciones que significan a la perfección el espíritu de RADIO CON BOTAS y que han tomado el pulso a la Americana a lo largo de este 2023 que se acaba. 01-ISRAEL NASH “Ozarker” (Nash) Soundly Israel Nash es un músico capaz de que el término “cinematográfico” sirva para describir a la perfección buena parte de sus canciones y de su forma de interpretarlas. Nacido y criado en Missouri, pasó por Nueva York y en 2011 se mudó a Texas, construyendo un estudio de grabación en Dripping Springs. Pero para construir las canciones de este nuevo trabajo se trasladó a un pueblo cercano donde realizó las primeras maquetas con una guitarra, un viejo teclado Casio y una grabadora de cuatro pistas. En 10 días lo modeló en su estudio y viajó a Los Angeles para completarlo. Como indica su título, Ozarker, el décimo segundo de su recorrido, Israel Nash rinde homenaje a sus raíces en Ozark, una ciudad del estado de Missouri de poco más de 20.000 habitantes cuyo nombre tiene que ver con las Ozark mountains, en las que encuentra refugio para compartir historias impregnadas de los íntimos sentimientos de sus paisanos y de sus familiares más cercanos, lo que supone un cierto regreso a casa. Así lo hace en su tema central, contando la historia de su bisabuelo, un trabajador migrante que se enamoró de la hija del dueño de un huerto en el que trabajaba. Cumplió su promesa de regresar para casarse con ella y le estaba esperando sentada allí, en las escaleras de la entrada, con un vestido que guardo en la maleta para irse. Todo ello con una fuerte influencia de los modos de Springsteen para envolver sus historias. De hecho, en esta colección de diez canciones muy personales, Israel Nash hace evidentes guiños al Boss, Bob Seger y Tom Petty, sin olvidar a su siempre reverenciado Neil Young. El resultado es una especie de homenaje a las melodías que hemos escuchado en grandes himnos del rock, que podremos escuchar en la segunda mitad de febrero en su gira por seis ciudades españolas. 02-CHRIS STAPLETON “The Bottom” (Stapleton) Mercury Nashville La edad y la experiencia suelen proporcionar sabiduría y en el caso de Chris Stapleton es mucho más que evidente. Hace ocho años editó su álbum de debut álbum titulado Traveller, después de recorrer distintos caminos, desde ser escritor de canciones en Nashville durante décadas, formar parte de un grupo fundamental dentro del bluegrass como los Steeldrivers y, por fin, aventurarse a iniciar una carrera en solitario. En la actualidad nadie duda que el músico de Kentucky ha hecho que la country music esté recuperando carácter y, sobre todo, alma. Esa que había perdido por culpa de la industria afincada en Nashville. Además, lo ha conseguido desde dentro, ganando ocho Grammys y una tonelada de premios, entre los que destacan los de la Country Music Association y la Academy of Country Music. Su carrera tiene mucho de redención para un género construido desde la tradición y las raíces, y desnortado por las manos que mandan en Music Row. Su omnipresencia en muy diversos proyectos en los últimos años daba muestras de estar en gran forma, pero iba creciendo la casi necesidad de un nuevo álbum que diera continuación al contundente Starting Over de 2020. Cuando recibimos los primeros anticipos entendimos que Chris Stapleton sigue siendo un artista imprescindible, con una capacidad narrativa impecable. Chris Stapleton acaba de lanzar su nuevo álbum, Higher, un profundo disco de country soul que ha producido junto a su mujer Morgane y Dave Cobb, con la exquisitez de la que siempre han hecho gala. Está hecho a mano, con el cuidado y la entrega necesaria para que la espera haya merecido, y mucho, la pena. La característica fundamental de este trabajo es reafirmarse, por si alguien pudiera tener alguna duda, de la importancia que Morgane tiene en su vida. Hay quien ha dicho que son los Johnny & June del presente y no parece que se haya equivocado. Comparten un amor inquebrantable, una tranquila confianza y seguridad además de una admiración mutua que se manifiesta en una poderosa energía creativa. Stapleton ha querido ir más alla del estereotipo que relaciona el country y el alcohol en las zonas rurales de Estados Unidos y de forma muy especial tras una ruptura amorosa llegando a la angustia que destila, nunca mejor dicho, “The Bottom”. 03-TURNPIKE TROUBADOURS “Chipping Mill” (Edwards/Roark) Bossier City En mayo de 2019 Turnpike Troubadours se habían tomado una pausa mientras Evan Felker, su líder, se recuperaba de su adicción al alcohol y a otros problemas personales. La banda de Oklahoma nos había dejados huérfanos de un sonido esplendoroso desde que el álbum A Long Way From Your Heart, se lanzó en el 17. Producido por el legendario Shooter Jennings en los míticos estudios FAME de Muscle Shoals y rematado en Los Ángeles, A Cat in the Rain, apareció también el pasado verano con una colección de diez canciones nuevas y dos versiones inesperadas que nos reencontraba con el mejor sonido de la Red Dirt Music. “Chipping Mill”, que compusieron R.C. Edwards, bajista y socio fundador de los Troubadours, y Lance Roark, colaborador habitual del grupo, es uno de los momentos magistrales en los que se hace notar el protagonismo del fiddle de Kyle Nix respaldando esa voz siempre reconocible de Evan Felker. Es el recuerdo de una relación rota que deja para la interpretación el cómo y el por qué, con el sentimiento mantenido de que “Siempre guardé lo mejor para ti". 04-OLD CROW MEDICINE SHOW feat. WILLIE WATSON “Miles Away” (Secor/Tuttle) ATO Si te encuentras con algún amigo o amante perdido Y solo ves restos de reticencia Agarra el cuerno de la silla de montar y estira tu cuerpo No dejes que el pasado tome las riendas Aprovecha la oportunidad de decir te quiero Incluso si sientes que es algo tarde. Porque antes de que te des cuenta, justo al final, el camino girará a millas de distancia Old Crow Medicine Show publicaron en el verano un nuevo trabajo, Jubilee, donde mantienen su sonido tradicional para contar el presente del mundo en que vivimos, con sus problemas, sus enfrentamientos y su cariño por las tierras del Sur. En él pudieron contar con colaboraciones tan sobresalientes como las de Mavis Staples, Sierra Hull y Willie Watson. La canción que destacó desde su primera escucha fue “Miles Away”, que Ketch Secor creó junto a la siempre brillante Molly Tuttle y en la que ha contado con la voz de Willie Watson, que fuera cofundador de los Crow allá por 1998. Es una mirada por el retrovisor donde, como dice el texto que suele figurar en él, todo está más cerca de lo que parece. Ha pasado un cuarto de siglo desde que Old Crow Medicine Show se creó en Nashville como una banda de cuerda que hacía old-time, folk y un country alternativo con cierta estética punk. Y para mirar atrás era preciso recuperar a Willie Watson más de 10 años después de su marcha. 05-TYLER CHILDERS “In Your Love” (Seale/Childers) Hickman Holler/RCA Desde la publicación de Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven?, un disco triple con diferentes remixes de ocho canciones de góspel, estábamos esperando nuevas noticias de Tyler Childers, un tipo de Lawrence County, en Kentucky, que siempre sorprende. A primeros de septiembre llegó Rustin' In The Rain, grabado con los Food Stamos en el estudio casero del guitarrista de este sexteto de apoyo, James Barker. Son principalmente canciones de amor entre las que hay algunas versiones, algún tema co-escrito y una sensación de libertad y disfrute con las actividades habituales de su granja. En una canción del nivel de “In Your Love”, que debería ser un éxito radiofónico en un mundo perfecto, está acompañado por un espléndido vídeo protagonizado por los actores Colton Haynes y James Scully en los papeles de dos mineros del carbón de los años 50 que se enamoran. Hay que recordar que Tyler Childers escribe frecuentemente sobre las minas del carbón, que fue la ocupación de su padre. Y que, disco a disco, consolida su reputación como una de las voces más importantes de estos tiempos. 06-ZACH BRYAN “Pain, Sweet, Pain” (Bryan) Belting Bronco/Warner Artistas como Zach Bryan están poniendo un enorme signo de interrogación a la industria musical que se refugia en el bunker monolítico de una escena obsoleta, casi siempre asentada en Nashville, con las mismas lentejuelas que criticaba Johnny Cash hace décadas. Los datos son irrefutables: Este chaval de 27 años nacido en Oklahoma ha metido las 16 canciones de su último álbum, de título homónimo, entre las primeras 50 de las listas. Su musical preseva las raíces, oscilando entre el country, el folk y el rock con una naturalidad apabullante. No desdeña invitar a The War and Treaty, Sierra Ferrell, los Lumineers o Kacey Musgraves a sus grabaciones, ni lanzar un simple EP de cinco canciones menos de un mes después de publicar su último álbum que ha llamdo Boys of Faith y que es el resultado de encerrarse durante una semana en el estudio, componer y compartir el tiempo con las gentes y los paisajes que tiene una significación especial en su vida. En dos de los temas ha contado con Bon Iver y Noah Kahan. Es como una mirada nostálgica al pasado representada a la perfección con eñ tema de cierre, que llevaba mucho tiempo interpretado en sus conciertos pero que no había llegado a grabar. Se trata de “Pain, Sweet Pain”. 07-MOLLY TUTTLE & GOLDEN HIGHWAY “El Dorado” (Tuttle/Secor) Nonesuch Hace siete años que asistimos al debut de Molly Tuttle y su progresión ha corroborado las expectativas desde que escuchamos su primer EP, gracias al cual la International Bluegrass Music Association la premió como Guitarrista del Año, siendo la primera mujer en conseguirlo y repitiendo al año siguiente, cuando editaba el primero de los cuatro álbumes que la han llevado a ampliar horizontes. El último de esos registros, City of Gold, lo acaba de editar junto a Golden Highway y es la continuación de Crooked Tree, por el que se llevó un Grammy al mejor disco de bluegrass. Molly Tuttle tiene el género de Kentucky impreso en la piel gracias a ser hija de Jack Tuttle, con cuya banda tocó con tan solo 15 años. Sin embargo, ella es californiana y Molly Tuttle en esta nueva entrega ha vuelto a dejarse atrapar por esas influencias de la Costa Oeste que abarcan de la psicodelia al folk pasando por los contadores de historias. El tema de apertura, compuesto con Ketch Secor de Old Crow Medicine Show, es “El Dorado”, inspirado en la fiebre del oro, que ella establece como un sentimiento parecido al de la música que la sedujo desde niña. La producción de Jerry Douglas vuelve a resaltar la emotividad de cada nota. 08-MARGO CILKER “Mother Told Her Mother Told Me” (Cilker) Fluff and Gravy Uno de los mejores ejemplos de la resiliencia de las mujeres es el de Margo Cilker, a quien conocimos por su visita a Euskadi en 2016 y de quien hablamos hace un par de años cuendo editó su álbum Pohorylle (POJORIL), convertido en uno de nuestros favoritos de entonces. Su continuación es Valley of Heart's Delight, que tiene que ver con que ella es la quinta generación familiar nacida en ese Valle de Santa Clara, en California, que todos conocemos como Sillicon Valley. Son once canciones con la familia y la naturaleza como protagonistas de historias personales que unen buena parte de los paisajes que su alma viajera ha recorrido y que son casi siempre la inspiración de sus composiciones y el contar con su mentora, la productora, baterista, compositora y veterana de la escena indie Sera Cahoone, como apoyo inigualable. La variedad emocional es una de las características más evidentes de esta nueva propuesta, hablando de lo común y cotidiano. Así ocurre en "Lowland Trail" donde mantiene un arrope sonoro bastante austero, aunque todo suena con una brillantez natural que recuerda el ambiente de los patios traseros de los hogares. "Lowland Trail", es un tema que parece bañado por el sol y tiene que ver con las labores en un rancho de ganado, donde nos encontramos a Margo Cilker rodeada de los paisajes del noroeste, meditando sobre su propio sentido de pertenencia y transportándonos a una época anterior al boom tecnológico. 09-MARGO PRICE “Unoriginal Sin” (Price/Campbell) Loma Vista/Concord Strays, el más completo y sugerente álbum de la carrera de Margo Price, es una fusión de country, rock, folk y música americana que la artista de Aledo, en Illinois, decidió entregar en dos tomas y, además dividir a su vez la segunda en tres. El segundo capítulo de la segunda parte de este proyecto, Act II: Mind Travel, nos dejo algunos momentos sublimes como es el caso de “Unoriginal Sin”, donde se acompaña por la guitarra de texturas “harrisonianas” de Mike Campbell, que ha compuesto la canción con ella. Producida por Jonathan Wilson, es una pieza que inspirada también en las experiencias con los hongos, sigue escarbando en los rincones oscuros del tiempo y el espacio a modo de viaje psicodélico, con la musicalidad de la vieja escuela. Margo decidió hace tiempo que quiere que la gente la tome en serio como compositora y sabe que siendo mujer tiene que trabajar mucho más duro para demostrar una valía innegable. 10-KASSI VALAZZA “Room In The City” (Valazza/Sigler) Fluff And Gravy Kassi Valazza es nativa de Chino Valley, la que fuera primera capital territorial de Arizona, y la música del desierto tiene una lenta tonalidad propia de los indios que aún perduran en aquellos parajes. Aunque ella se haya trasladado hasta Portland, en Oregon, mantiene viva la naturalidad de ese mundo, combinada con un sonido que toma prestado del folk inglés de Sandy Denny y el country and western, al que añade toques de psicodelia en sus márgenes. Manteniendo esa sensación de quietud en la envoltura de las canciones de su segundo álbum, Knows Nothing, que da continuación a su debut de 2019 Dear Dead Days, las letras sí que parecen ir ahora a una velocidad casi endiablada. Los versos dan la impresión de haber sido escritos a mano por su inmediatez y franqueza, poniendo en primer plano las realidades de las relaciones sentimentales, a veces tan contradictorias como difíciles de describir y más aún de compartir. Kassy Valazza grabó todo este nuevo disco en vivo, con el respaldo de TK and The Holy Know-Nothings, un quinteto liderado por Taylor Kingman con sede en Portland que no deberías dejar pasar. La banda escuchó las canciones por primera vez en el estudio y eso permitió que apareciera la magia y sucediera lo inesperado, como ocurre en como enfrentarse a las emociones del final de una relación en “Room In The City”, una delicia que nos animó a soñar con una posible visita, que se hizo realidad el pasado mes de noviembre y que no podremos olvidar. 11-DYLAN LEBLANC “Coyote” (LeBlanc) ATO Barre mis cenizas No soy del tipo que envejece Me voy a una nueva tierra Voy a robar el oro de un hombre rico. Voy a tomar lo que es mío Que la Santa Muerte se lleve mi alma. Así es “Coyote”, el tema central del último álbum de Dylan LeBlanc, que supuso un nuevo paso en el ascenso de un músico de amplios horizontes y profundas convicciones sonoras y personales. Con una tonalidad vocal que siempre nos recuerda a un juvenil Neil Young, Dylan LeBlanc nos regalará a finales de octubre un disco conceptual con tintes autobiográficos que narra la crónica de un hombre que vive siempre al límite. El músico de Shreveport (shriport), Louisiana, visitó ocho ciudades españolas en noviembre siendo el protagonista de los mejores conciertos en pequeño formato de este 2023, donde estuvo acompañado por su padre, James LeBlanc, de quien ha tomado buena parte de sus enseñanzas. Dylan tomó el camino del romanticismo a la hora de estrenarse en este mundillo y su espíritu nómada y vagabundo es lo que parece haberle relacionado ahora con la figura del coyote, confiado a su instinto para sobrevivir. El álbum se enfrenta a la naturaleza humana y al materialismo con el arrepentimiento de una vida desperdiciada, más interesado en representar lo que existe que en juzgarlo. En él se manifiesta que LeBlanc comprende, por experiencia propia, lo que significa vivir en el mundo de hoy. 12-JASON ISBELL AND THE 400 UNIT “Cast Iron Skilett” (Isbell) Southeastern/Thirty Tigers Si Crazy Horse o los Heartbreakers han sido imprescindibles para Neil Young o Tom Petty, 400 Unit lo es para Jason Isbell, uno de los más revelantes compositores de la Americana en cualquiera de sus sentidos. Acompañado por ellos, el músico de Green Hill, en Alabama, ha tomado el papel de contador de historias en la forma más clásica del término y cuenta, por ejemplo, que si romantizamos el pasado no podremos aprender de él. Esa es una buena parte de la filosofía que envuelve su último álbum, Weathervanes, con una docena de composiones grabadas en el Blackbird Studio de Nashville, que interiorizan el tiempo vivido y el aprendizaje, procurando superar lo peor del Sur, incluyendo sus mitos y leyendas, e intentando construir algo nuevo y mejor . En "Cast Iron Skillet", uno de los momentos más destacados del mismo, realata como fue su aprendizaje de la vida mientras creció en la zona rural de Alabama. Jason Isbell ha hecho a l largo de este año su debut como actor en Killers of the Flower Moon de Martin Scorsese, protagonizada por Leonardo Dicaprio y Robert De Niro y absolutamente recomendable. SIERRA FERRELL “The Garden” (Ferrell/ Craven) Geffen La hemos escuchado abarcar casi todas las propuestas de la Americana y colaborar con algunos de sus grandes nombres, como Margo Price, Brooks Forsyth o Zach Bryan. Es Sierra Ferrell, un prodigio a la hora de ensamblar las distintas propuestas de la tradición sonora y de la que esperamos un nuevo álbum en el inminente 2024. El violín y la guitarra son sus aliados naturales para envolver una voz de altísimas prestaciones y dejar canciones de la talla de “The Garden”, que forma parte de la banda sonora de la precuela de Los Juegos del Hambre. Se trata de un tema que viene interpretando desde hace tiempo y que, a diferencia de los demás incluidos en la película, ha sido producido por Eddie Spear y Gary Paczosa.

 The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker, Laura Wildash and Chris Pickles from our Procurement Team. James starts our final KW FeedCast of 2023 by welcoming a new guest to the podcast, Chris Pickles. Chris discusses Sodawheat and how we are already doing a lot of business for summer and winter 2024. There is currently a really good opportunity to put some cover on if you haven't already. Laura then moves onto cereals and echoes the fact that is it a good time to put on some forward cover for products such as; bread, biscuit meal and breakfast cereals. Moving onto proteins, there has been an improvement in the £/$ exchange rate which combined with settled USDA report has helped us get back to levels on Soya that we were seeing a few months ago. Rapemeal has been the big mover this week. As a more sustainable option to Soya, people have been taking advantage of the dip in price in order to get some cover, some booking as far forward as April 2025. We want to thank you for listening throughout 2023 and we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker, Laura Wildash and Jonathan Hanson from our Procurement Team. James introduces today's podcast by mentioning how improved weather and the changes in the Argentinian government have caused movement in the Soya market. Jonathan discusses how the main fundamental that has been influencing the market is the weather in South America. They have had some good rains and it is continuing to look favourable in Argentina but also Brazil. This has then increased optimism for the crop. Moving onto mid proteins, Laura discusses the fact that Rapemeal is featuring in a lot of rations increasing demand for fixings and deliveries in the lead up to Christmas. Meaning that it is quite tight nearby, so if you need product it is going to be limited to what is actually available instead of following what the Soya market is doing. We still have great availability of Expeller from the Stratford area which could help with any last minute requirements if you are struggling to book Rapemeal. We are also continuing to see fantastic sales on NovaPro and Ensus Distillers. There has been a change in the wheat market off the back of China delaying their French contracts and instead looking to buy US wheats. Where we'd normally see a discount on Nov 24 wheat we are seeing a premium. Have a listen to hear the team talk more in-depth on these topics and what else is happening in the market!As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries. Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

James Barker, is a football executive and coach. He is currently employed by TSN as a CFL panelist. His most recent employment in Canadian Football League was a senior advisor for the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League (CFL). Barker has been the general manager of the Calgary Stampeders from 2005–07, and the Argonauts from 2011-2016. He was also the head coach of the Argonauts in 1999, with the Stampeders in 2003, and then again with the Argos in 2010-11. He has also been a sports analyst for the CFL on TSN. Barker has also served as a football operations consultant and assistant coach for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. He is a four-time Grey Cup champion having won twice as an assistant coach and twice as a football administrator. On February 9, 2010, Barker returned to the Toronto Argonauts for his second stint as their head coach. After leading the Argos to the playoffs for the first time since 2007, Barker assumed the role of general manager on December 15, 2010, replacing Adam Rita, whose contract was not renewed. The CFL announced on February 25, 2011, that Barker was the Coach of the Year for 2010, winning the Annis Stukus Trophy. Prior to the 2012 CFL season, Barker made a trade that brought All-Star quarterback Ricky Ray from the Edmonton Eskimos to Toronto to help an offense that had struggled for some time. That move, and others, helped the Argonauts win the league's 100th Grey Cup at Rogers Centre. After six seasons as the general manager of the Argonauts and compiling a 49–59 record in that time span, Barker was fired on January 24, 2017.[ Barker spent the 2018 season as a TV analyst on TSN. On January 3, 2019, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced Barker would join the team as a football operations consultant.[6] Following the departure of June Jones just prior to 2019 training camp, Barker also added the title of offensive assistant for the 2019 season.[7] For the 2020 season, he was also named a special teams assistant coach.[8] However, the 2020 CFL season was cancelled and Barker was not retained for the 2021 season.[9] Barker re-joined the CFL on TSN broadcasts as an analyst for the 2021 CFL season.

The lastest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker, our Raw Materials Buyer and Jonathan Hanson from our Raw Material Procurement Team. James and Jonathan will be discussing the impacts of the latest USDA report and how things are progressing globally in regards to; weather, politics and how they have affected the markets. They delve into the outcome of the grain corridor agreement expiring at the beginning of this week and discuss how the crops will be transported across Europe. Moving onto discussing product availability and any area of concerns,  including tightness of Rapemeal in the UK which is also affecting  Novapro and Expeller. There is a lack of supply and availability so it is worth noting if you require any rape based products. The corn market has firmed up a little bit. Whilst Soya Hulls hasn't changed in price in the UK, we are seeing a feast and famine situation with Wheatfeed as prices are rising due to it being tricky to get hold of on the spot market. Prices are fluctuating quite heavily on a daily basis so keep an eye on trends and take advantage of small dips in order to get cover for the winter. As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker, our Raw Materials Buyer. As usual he will be providing an outlook on the protein, mid protein and cereal markets. James starts with discussing the USDA plantings report and how its affected the market. A couple of main headlines are that there has been 2 million acres added to the march corn planted acreage which is very bareish news to the corn market. This has filtered through to our maize and other cereal markets including wheat and barley in the UK. The bullish sentiment to come from the report is that they have reduced the soy meal planting area by 4 million acres. From this we have seen some sharp price increases regarding soy meal, due to factors such as the weather, it is worth keeping an eye on the situation. It is a good time to be looking at cover for soy meal through till October and also looking at winter prices. There is some good news regarding the corn market, we have seen this come down significantly this week due to the estimated volume. We have already seen this come back into our maize prices with whole and ground maize levels being the best they have all season. Hopefully this will transpire into our wheat and barley prices. We are currently seeing wheat trade between £185 nov futures through to £210 which is at the bottom of the range. Sodawheat, whole wheat and barley are all selling well along with products such as Sugarich. It is worth looking at cover and taking advantage of the cereal markets as they are. With the grain deal set to expire on the 17th July things are still up in the air as we are hearing that there is going to be no negotiation. Although this was the case previously, it is looking less likely that this will change this time round. Volatility is to be expected, especially as we get closer to the deadline. Rapemeal is very tight for July as the main crushers in the UK haven't got any old crop material to sell, we are very hand to mouth on what is available. Moving onto distillers, Ensus and Vivergo distillers are still available at competitive prices. Soya Hulls have been relatively unchanged for July – Oct for a while now and are generally trading between £195-£200. Looking at wheatfeed the markets are currently tight with fixings not being readily available. As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

The latest episode of FeedCast is brought to you by James Barker, our Raw Materials Buyer. As usual he will be providing an outlook on the protein, mid protein and cereal markets. James starts by discussing the changes we have seen from Friday 16th June in regards to the weather, the markets have risen globally for various different products. The soya meal market, has seen a differential of pricing on the day between 2 to 3 pounds which has become relatively normal. However on Friday, a lot of funds decided it was the right time to cover in shorts that had been developing. With the weather remaining hot and dry in the key growing states we are seeing an increase in price by £12-£20 depending on where you are looking / how far you are looking forward. Soya is the main product on the upside at the moment. Moving to rapemeal, there is a distinct lack of offers available for June and July. With the crushers switching to different products other than rapemeal in Europe it is having a big effect on the meal that we are seeing. For Aug-Oct the premium into the new crop has now arrived because of the lack of availability for June and July, meaning we are looking at around a £40 premium from where we were a few weeks ago. We are continuing to see alternatives to rapemeal such as distillers, both Ensus and Vivergo products are still available. We have seen the corn futures have rallied quite heavily however things such as maize and hulls haven't been affected to much with the forward markets remaining relatively unchanged. It is worth looking at any opportunities for nearby June and July to get any cover if needed. Looking now at cereals, we have settled above the Nov futures on £200 which has felt within the trade like a target that we have been aiming for the last month. There is still the ongoing issue regarding Russia and Ukraine, with this we are still seeing old crop prices remaining at very good value. Demand is feeling sluggish due to people not wanting to sell tonnes are the current prices in the last month or two. With the grain deal still being discussed its worth being cautious with your cereals and not necessarily going to long or to short at the moment. As we mentioned earlier there are still alternatives available such as Vivergo. We also have Novapro and Expeller from Yelo which is home produced and competitive in regards to pricing. Final thoughts from today are that the markets have rallied heavily from the 16th June and we are waiting to see if this now continues. Hopefully we can see this fall back from next week but its something to keep an eye on. As always get in touch with your sales representative or contact us in the office if you have any queries.Legal Disclaimer:Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been prepared for general informational purposes only and does not constitute advice.

Todays FeedCast is brought to you by Chris Davidson and James Barker. It covers the current movements in mid-proteins, soya and wheat.Mid-proteins are currently offering good opportunities in the spot markets. Vivergo is up and running with good volumes which is putting pressure on the price. This has carried through to the rapemeal market, especially coming out of Erith in the south. Expeller is also competing around the country for volume, all helping to provide a chance to take advantage of pricing now. While the Dec-Jul market is looking high in comparison, we are seeing buying occur in the Aug-Oct 23 markets which are beginning to look interesting.On the soya front, the US is almost finished harvesting, Brazil has made a great start to the plantings and all is beginning to look good. With a new USDA report out on Wednesday will they have to increase their yield forecast? If this does happen we will expect some bearish news and a reflection in the price so potential opportunities. NovaPro is remaining an excellent alternative to soya and we are seeing an increase in purchasing as the soya price remains high.The wheat markets remain on a knife edge. Ultimately world stocks are very short and this is reflected in the market pricing. With wheat continuing to move out of Ukraine we could get bearish news, however it really depends on the black sea corridor remaining open and the risk associated with this remains high.

Josh and Steve are joined by James Barker of the We Talk Seahawks Podcast (@wetalkseahawks) to discuss the NFC West including defending Super Bowl champion LA Rams, competitors in the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers, and the rebuilding Seattle Seahawks.

The latest Feedcast, brought to you by Chris Davidson and James Barker, continues to highlight the volatility we see in the market and how you should be looking for opportunities where you can, while being aware the market is trying to head up rather than down.They start by describing the grains market at the moment. Maize in particular has seen a large rally off the back of the annual ProFarmer crop tour, which has taken place in the US over the last week. This year has seen maize estimates 15mT lower than the current USDA forecast, coupled with the weak European crop, these prices are likely to remain bullish. With Nov Wheat futures trading between £260-£270, it is worth considering taking cover if they get back to the £260 level.The tour has also looked at soya, and while estimates started slow resulting in price increases, they have ended up around current USDA estimates and the price is beginning to fall again.  It is worth noting that the currency exchange rates are affecting this pricing heavily at the moment with the Doller stronger against a weak Pound. There is even talk of reaching parity at some point. However with harvest about to commence in the next few weeks and if the weather is as expected, we may well see a dip and an opportunity to buy, watch this space carefully!Rapemeal is a different story with a large rally on pricing over the last fortnight due to the very high energy prices we are seeing at present. This has resulted in an increase on Winter pricing of between £20-£30T. However not all is doom and gloom with May-Jul seeing some discounting as crushers look to increase their forward sold positions. We believe it is worth keeping an eye on these prices and looking at taking cover if they continue to dip.Opportunities in the market right now include Palm Kernels, one of the cheapest prices we are seeing right now, especially considering the SugarBeet and Soya Hull pricing and the fact wheat feed is hard to buy. Also worth a look is Vivergo Wheat Distillers who are back in the market and are seeing no sign of a slowdown. Finally NovaPro is also great value to fill up your DUP, while soya remains at the high price we are seeing at the moment. In the main the pricing in the markets today is really encouraging you to look at home grown products with good availability – let's not forget these are great from a sustainability point of view too – a win:win.As always if you have any questions on any products or pricing don't hesitate to call the office or speak to your seller

Today's episode of Feedcast is brought to you by James Barker and Jonathan Hanson from the KW buying and product teams. Today they are discussing the cereals markets around the world and how they continue to be affected by the global weather and the ongoing situation in Ukraine. The last two weeks has seen the markets continue to be choppy with the Chicago futures, French and London markets all seeing increases due to the ongoing Ukraine crisis. While the first boat has now left port, this good news doesn't seem to have calmed down the prices. The situation is still turbulent and consequently the volatility still remains. Globally, the hot, dry weather is still the main story across Northern America and Europe. These conditions are affecting key crops at key growth stages for the plants. Of course a forecast is a forecast and changeable but this will add continued volatility to the market as we wait for harvest to see how badly the crops have been affected, over the course of the last week both the USDA and France have lowered the amount of good to excellent crops by 3% and 7% respectively. Interestingly while this has caused a fluctuation in prices in the corn and soya markets, ground maize is holding and may well offer a good opportunity now.Rapemeal has also seen an increase over the last fortnight due to crushers being well sold, and the lower Rhine levels. Here the lack of rain has seen water levels fall, this means boats cannot fill as much as they like in Germany and has resulted in lower availability. As a result of this NovaPro and rape expeller are looking excellent value for summer and moving forward in to winter. From a fibre perspective we have not seen much movement with SugarBeet pricing remaining firm and soya hulls looking competitive against them.It is worth also looking at your performance products. Gas prices have again reached around £5/therm, back to the highs at the start of the invasion. This will affect production costs and it is worth looking at these products now as the volatility is likely to remain for some time to come.As always we are here to help if you need any further information, but keep watching the dips and take advantage of opportunities when you see them.

Today's Feedcast is brought to you by James Barker and Jonathan Hanson, one of our KW product Managers. This episode sees them discussing what has been happening over the last few weeks in the world markets, including the political and weather influences to pricing.The potential Ukraine food corridor continues to affect the raw materials markets, especially the wheat, which has seen high levels of volatility as optimism remains around the opening of the corridor, which of course has been ongoing for a while now. 20 million tonnes of grain is sitting ready to leave Ukraine, the question is will it actually be released. The daily change in the likelihood of this happening means the price continues to fluctuate rapidly even though the actual situation remains at a standstill.Also affecting the world markets and topical today is the weather. Any change in the forecast can affect pricing. Right now we are at a critical time for growing in North America and the weather is not playing ball. On top of this the condition of the crops continues to deteriorate, as this falls, prices continue to firm up. All these external factors including currency, talk of recession and inflation rates are affecting the volatility we are seeing at the moment. This means you need to pick dips when they happen and take advantage with a percentage of your needs, helping you to take risk out of your books. With the majority of pricing coming off the back of media stories rather than facts and figures, it is a very difficult market to get right.The majority of the protein and fibre prices have remained stable this fortnight, with the exception of NovaPro which still looks very good value compared to soya. As always if you want to talk about anything discussed in today's podcast or require feeding advice please contact your sales specialist or the KW office.

Today's episode of KW FeedCast is brought to you by Chris Davidson and James Barker, discussing the volatility in the markets at the moment and the slightly more positive outlook right now.Wheat has been the biggest mover in the last few weeks, from its May peak at mid £360's, it has now declined by around £100 per Tonne. This is partly due to the fairly positive news of Russian withdrawal from snake Island, meaning the markets do think an export corridor could be possible. On top of this Russia has lowered its export tax by around $60perT enabling it to try and compete in the world markets again. All of this means now is a good time to think about forward cover, if the Russian:Ukraine export corridor does not open these prices could change very rapidly for the worse. Rapemeal is a similar story, again reflecting the potential exports from Ukraine but also the loosening of palm oil exports from Indonesia and some talk that the EU maybe reduce Biodiesel mandates. UK availability is looking good and price is at a sensible level to take cover. It is also a good time to utilise NovaPro in your diets as sustainability comes back on the processors agendas, at £100 below the soya price it is a good way to save on the protein cost and lower your carbon footprint. It is worth considering that risk is equally high in the oil markets with food security high on everyone's agendas, only one and half months ago Indonesia had banned exports so the market remains very fluid and dynamic. Soya is still well supported with world stocks tight and demand strong. The USDA report lowering the US planting acreage by 2-2.5 million tonnes has helped to support this price, however we did see a sell off last Friday due to sellers operating a risk-off mentality. It feels like these prices will remain supported over the coming months as we watch the weather closely in the soya growing regions.Finally it is worth noting the gas price at the moment. This has rocketed back to 400p a therm in the winter due to the planned shut down of the Russian gas pipeline Nordstream1 and concerns it will be used as a further tool to limit supplies to Europe.. This gas price can affect feed additives and specialist products such as Urea and Caustic. You must continue to think about the background costs as well as the commodity markets themselves. Now is the time to look at getting the risk off your table, we believe this is a low point in the market and the risk of an upturn is high. If this happens prices will rise very sharply.

Your latest commodity update is brought to you by Chris Davidson and James Barker. This episode starts by discussing the rape market. Rape has had a big drop off from the over £400 highs we have seen and is now available in the low £300's in some places. When buying rape we tend to advise to look at around 60-62% of the soya price, we are back to this sort of level, which seemed unachievable a few weeks ago. Sadly, there is a caveat to this, following the announcement of Cargill's decision to shut their crush in Hull. This has resulted in Northern prices not seeing the lows of the South. Positively with Vivergo reopening there will be alternative mid-proteins on the market.As we advised last time the rape and cereals price will be affected by the possible Russian/UN deal around the Odessa port and no one knows which way this deal will go. Now is the time to think about cover as whatever happens will happen quickly so you do need to manage your risk.Soya is now looking less favourable due to increasing hot, dry conditions causing some rallies. The currency is also a factor here as the loss of a cent can mean an increase of £5 in the price. From a food oil perspective soya has also taken a hit with rape going well and Indonesia ready to export palm oil again, this has meant meal price needs to remain firm to support the crush margin. Over the next few months soya pricing will be based on what the weather does, this is a risky place to be and can leave you exposed. Positively, home grown options such as NovaPro and rape expeller are a brilliant cost effective replacement here.Our main takeaway this week is if your book is looking empty, you need to evaluate your risk and maybe now is the time to act.

This episode of Feedcast is brought to you by Chris Davidson and James Barker. Today they discuss the current wheat market, the latest USDA report and what opportunities there are currently.Starting with the wheat, we are beginning to see interest in the new crop especially around November pricing, where it looks like there is a £50 discount on new crop. As the uncertainty in the cereals markets continue now is the time many are focused on forward cover to eliminate the risk. Especially considering the latest USDA report suggested corn was 2 ½ million short on the expected planting acreage and the majority of the wheat growing area is still in drought.From a protein perspective the USDA report came in at 91mT soya, a recent record. While this has resulted in a dip in the market this could increase as the focus on US planting and the Argentinian harvest increase. This good news is beginning to flow through to the mid-proteins as well. We are beginning to see crushers looking for interest as the oil price continues to increase and this is opening up opportunities in rape expeller and NovaPro. As always, make sure you keep an eye on the market for these opportunities and take advantage where you can to ensure you are beginning to forward cover. If at all possible avoid the spot market at the moment.
