Flesh & Blood, the third studio album by Poison, finds the group at the top of their form.  The team of Bret Michaels on lead vocals, C.C. DeVille on lead guitar, Bobby Doll on bass, and Rikki Rockett on drums had been quite successful in the glam metal genre of the mid-80's, and had developed a reputation for a "work hard, play hard" mentality.  While they had a legendary stage presence, they also were plagued with fights both within and outside of the band.  A number of lawsuits in various cities were predicated on Michaels' tendency to get into fights at parties and other events.  Despite these issues - or perhaps because of them - their reputation only grew over time. Flesh & Blood is an album that is more challenging musically than the earlier ones.  The band is toning down their glam metal persona and taking on more serious lyrical themes.  Songs cover a wide range from sex and motorcycles, to struggles with long term relationships, to frustration with the struggles seen in society.  The band would drop the excessive makeup of their earlier career, and found the songs on a more blues-oriented rock.  More piano work is included, with keyboardist John Webster contributing to the album sessions.The result was a success, reaching triple platinum status by 1991.  The album peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart and number 3 on the UK albums chart. This album would be a kind of high water mark for the group, as the industry was moving away from the metal sound of the late 80's and into the grunge sound of the mid-1990's.  However, the group would go on to record and tour into the new millennium, and Bret Michaels would become both a solo act and a celebrity with his MTV reality show "Rock of Love with Bret Michaels."Lynch brings us a look at a somewhat more mature Poison on this week's for today's podcast. Unskinny BopNot every song has deep or significant lyrics.  This hit single from the album started as a nonsense lyric, a placeholder that stuck.  The catchy repetition would make it a crowd favorite at concerts, and it was a top 10, going to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.Valley of Lost SoulsA deeper cut, this song lyrics talk about the life of a rock artist struggling to make it in a place without compassion.  It is a slower piece, but definitely not a ballad.  Life Goes OnC.C. DeVille brought the original draft of this song to the band.  The lyrics were inspired by a girlfriend of DeVille who was shot and killed in a California bar fight, and describe the quest for light at the end of a dark period in life.Something to Believe InThis ballad was the second single released from the album, and went to number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Bret Michaels dedicated this song to his friend and bodyguard James Kimo Maano who had died previously.  The lyrics reflect the frustration in the failures of society, from poverty, to the treatment of Vietnam veterans, to the hypocrisy of televangelists. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:You're In the Doghouse Now by Brenda Lee (from the motion picture “Dick Tracy”)This action movie based on the comic series from the 1930's starred Warren Beatty in the title role, along with Al Pacino and Madonna. STAFF PICKS:Ball and Chain by Social DistortionWayne kicks off the staff picks with a more alternative rock song penned by a punk rock band from their third and self-titled album.  The lyrics describe a hard luck story of a man who can't escape his difficulties.  It could be about a relationship, a rut in life, or about any vice that holds you down.Way Down Now by World PartyRob's staff pick is the first single from World Party's second studio album, "Goodbye Jumbo."  If you hear echoes of "Sympathy for the Devil," that is deliberate - though the song is much more upbeat.  It reached number 1 on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks chart.  World Party is primarily a one-man project from multi-instrumentalist Karl Wallinger from the Waterboys.Tie Dye on the Highway by Robert PlantBruce brings us a song off plant's fifth studio album "Manic Nirvana."  The spoken line, "What we have in mind is breakfast in bed for 400,000." is from Wavy Gravy and the Hog Farm Collective, delivered at the Woodstock festival in 1969 announcing the intention to provide free breakfast to the crowd.  Kool Thing by Sonic YouthLynch closes out the staff picks with a song critical of the over-the-top masculinity of LL Cool J.  It was the first single from their sixth studio album, "Goo."  The track never mentions LL Cool J personally, but references a number of his works.  Chuck D. of Public Enemy provides the spoken vocals to the song.INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Mildred Pierce by Sonic YouthWe double up on Sonic Youth as we end today's podcast with their instrumental based on a 1945 film noir starring Joan Crawford.   Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

In this episode, Caleb is joined by Ronni Kurtz (PhD, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) professor of theology at Cedarville University to discuss his newest book, Light Unapproachable: Divine Incomprehensibility and the Task of Theology. Together they discuss how our inability to see God in his totality should not lead us to despair, but rather; through God's gracious accommodation, to joy in the reality that we can learn to speak of God faithfully, truthfully, and prayerfully with the help of Scripture and faithful voices from our theological heritage.

“Because this act was done by this one, there and then, acts of reconciliation are more than an attempt to create reality by establishing imagined communities which offer a different sort of social space from that of the world's routine violence. Human acts of reconciliation are in accordance with the structure of reality which God in Christ creates and to the existence of which the gospel testifies; and therefore they are acts which tend toward the true end of creation which God's reconciling act establishes once and for all in Christ's person and work.”— John Webster 1 Corinthians 12:12-31

Kimlyn Bender joins the podcast to discuss the theology of the word and preaching that has formed the context for the Fellowship gatherings of CPT Fellows. We talk about the nature of the word of God and how that relates to preaching, particularly within the context of evangelicalism's focus on the text of Scripture, expanding particularly on the statement in the Second Helvetic Confession of Faith that the preaching of the word of God is the word of God. Our conversation touches on Karl Barth, Martin Luther, Søren Kierkegaard, authority in the pulpit, the presence of the risen Christ, and more!

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss one of the most influential theologians of the twentieth century. Karl Barth (1886 - 1968) rejected the liberal theology of his time which, he argued, used the Bible and religion to help humans understand themselves rather than prepare them to open themselves to divine revelation. Barth's aim was to put God and especially Christ at the centre of Christianity. He was alarmed by what he saw as the dangers in a natural theology where God might be found in a rainbow or an opera by Wagner; for if you were open to finding God in German culture, you could also be open to accepting Hitler as God's gift as many Germans did. Barth openly refused to accept Hitler's role in the Church in the 1930s on these theological grounds as well as moral, for which he was forced to leave Germany for his native Switzerland.WithStephen Plant Dean and Runcie Fellow at Trinity Hall, University of CambridgeChristiane Tietz Professor for Systematic Theology at the University of ZurichAnd Tom Greggs Marischal Professor of Divinity at the University of AberdeenProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Karl Barth, God Here and Now (Routledge, 2003)Karl Barth (trans.

Welcome to another episode with Dr. John Patrick. In today's discussion, we delve into the future of the church, its adaptation in global crises, and the important lessons to glean from our own shortcomings. Leveraging insights from John Webster's "Confronted by Grace", Dr. Patrick discusses the concept of domesticating faith, the significance of confession, and the transformative power of humility. He explores the intricacies of spiritual growth and its necessity for both personal journeys and the broader church community. Tune in to this enlightening discussion about the evolving role of the church and the grace of introspection and repentance.

The christocentric character of Herman Bavinck's thought has long been acknowledged, but an analysis of Bavinck's christocentrism has not been forthcoming. The Heart of Dogmatics: Christology and Christocentrism in Herman Bavinck (Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2020) redresses this situation, offering a comprehensive study of Bavinck's concept of a christocentric theological system. Building on the more recent secondary literature, Bruce Pass draws attention to many unexplored avenues in Bavinck's writings. In particular, Pass sheds light on the intimate connection between Bavinck's christocentrism and his organicism. Delving deeply into Bavinck's appropriation of Reformed Orthodoxy and German Idealism, Pass presents a compelling account of this thinker's attempt to establish Neo-Calvinism as a modern orthodoxy. By way of conclusion, pertinent ways in which Bavinck's christocentrism may prove a useful resource for contemporary projects of theological retrieval are explored in a comparison of Bavinck and John Webster. Bruce Pass is a senior honorary research fellow at the University of Queensland, Australia. He has published numerous articles on Bavinck and modern theology as well as translated several of Bavinck's Academic Orations (Brill 2021).

Theoretical physicist Michio Kaku joins to talk about his new book, “Quantum Supremacy: How The Quantum Computer Revolution Will Change Everything.” (1:01) Then, John Webster of the US Biochar Initiative talks biochar which is a carbon-rich material made from simple biomass and its uses go way beyond just enhancing our soil. (27:23)

In this episode of Doctor John breaks from the regular scheduled program to bring a special Easter message. He reads the first chapter of "Confronted by Grace" by John Webster, which delves into the nature of truth and falsehood and how it relates to the events of Holy Week. Webster's homily is based on Matthew 21:33-39, the Parable of the Vineyard, and draws parallels to the rejection of truth in our own world. The podcast explores the power of lies and how they can have deadly consequences when they go public. It concludes with the message of hope that despite humanity's rejection of God and the covenant of grace, it still stands, and we can approach Holy Week with the prayer for God's mercy and life.

This coming May 6, the United Kingdom will celebrate its first coronation of a new monarch in seventy years. According to the announcement from Buckingham Palace, “The Ceremony will see His Majesty King Charles III crowned . . . . The Coronation will reflect the monarch's role today and look towards the future, while being rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry.” Queen Elizabeth II was crowned on June 2, 1953. You can find videos online. There was indeed pageantry, and I'm sure we'll see great pomp and circumstance this coming May. But amazing as the scene might be — when a kingdom marshals all its collective energy and resources to mark, with pageantry, the crowning, of a new monarch — the first chapter of Hebrews tells us of the coronation that even the most impressive on earth (times ten) can only faintly anticipate.Jesus's CoronationThe opening scene of Hebrews is the coronation of Jesus Christ, eternal second person of the Godhead, who came to earth as man, lived, suffered, died for sins not his own, rose again to new life, and forty days later ascended to heaven — and Hebrews gives us a glimpse into that moment when Jesus returned to heaven, with angels looking on, to be crowned Lord of all by his Father, on the throne of heaven itself.Can you imagine the scene in heaven? Around the throne are innumerable angels in festal gathering, waiting with joy, when the God-man appears at the periphery, and one eye after another sees him. And the energy and anticipation of heaven quickly turns silent. And Jesus processes to the throne, signaled by his Father. He sits down, his work complete, exalted, in universe's seat of honor, and heaven crowns Jesus Lord of all, with many diadems and praises.So, as we come to Hebrews 1 this morning, and to verses 3–6 in particular, let's keep this scene in mind. There are some challenging concepts in this first chapter, and in all of Hebrews, but we will be helped with some of those challenges if we remember the setting, which I want to show you in the text. So let's look briefly at the timing and the location of Christ's coronation, and then we'll focus most of our time on its significance.1) Its TimingFirst, the timing. There is a particular “when” that anchors this chapter — the other side of Christ's ascension. Jump down and see that verse 6 says, “when [God] brings the firstborn into the world, he says, ‘Let all God's angels worship him.'” Now, that might sound like the incarnation (the first time Jesus came) or the second coming, but chapter 2, verse 5, clarifies it for us (using this same word world from 1:6): “it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.” What do you mean “of which we are speaking”? Well, in chapter 1. Chapter 1 is speaking of “the world to come,” that is, the world to come for believers, “the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem” (12:22), the heaven to which Jesus ascended to reign till his return.But an even clearer time indicator is the end of verse 3: “After making purification for sins, he sat down.” That is, after accomplishing his sacrificial work on the cross — and rising again, and ascending — Jesus sat down, on heaven's throne, for the great coronation that is Hebrews' opening scene.2) Its LocationSecond is the location. We have a particular “where” that anchors this chapter: heaven. The end of verse 3: “he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high” — in the place of honor, with God himself. As we've already seen in verse 6: “when [God] brings the firstborn into the world,” which Hebrews 2:5 says is “the world to come,” heaven.Note this carefully: heaven is a superior location than earth for a king, not inferior. This is a challenge for modern people. As God says in Isaiah 66:1, “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool,” Earth is where he rests his feet. And as we'll see later in Hebrews, heaven is also a superior, not inferior, place for a high priest, as Hebrews 8:1–2 says, “we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man.” Earthly thrones are made by men, and limited by men. But the heavenly throne is God's, not made and limited by human hands.And so when our children ask, Daddy, where is Jesus? Why have I never seen him? — as my children have asked at least twice — we say something like this: “Buddy” or “Sweetie, Jesus is seated, in power, as King and Lord of all, at the right hand of God in heaven. Jesus is real, human, risen, glorified, and reigning over all, waiting patiently for all his enemies, in his perfect timing, to be put under his feet. Jesus is as real as I am, and as real as Mommy is. In fact, he's even more real, because he rose to new life in a glorious body, which we too one day will have, when our seeing him with our hearts, by faith, turns into our seeing him, face to face, with our eyes.Heaven is no less real than earth, but more real, and superior. Our material world, in all its glories, is derivative and secondary, not ultimate.3) Its SignificanceNow, the significance of Christ's coronation. This is where we'll linger for the rest of our time, in what it means. To do so, let's ask, and answer, three questions about verses 4–6: Why angels? How do these Old Testament quotations work?What is “the name” he has inherited?Why angels?Verse 4 links Jesus's coronation with his “having become . . . superior to angels.” Angels? Where did they come from? And besides, wasn't the eternal Son, as God, always superior to angels, who, spectacular as they might be, are just created beings? Yes, as God, the Son has always been superior to angels — but not as man. There is an order of being, you see: God, and God alone, uncreated, at the top. Then under him, angels; then man; then animals. Psalm 8 celebrates that God “made [humanity] a little lower than the [angels] and crowned him with glory and honor [and gave] him “dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth” (Genesis 1:28).So, humans are superior to animals (and sadly, many humans today have lost touch with this!). And angels are superior to humans, by order of creation. However, God the Son became man, and thus became a little lower than the angels, and now has surpassed the angels. As God, he's always been superior to the angels. But now, by virtue of his life, and sacrificial death, and triumphant resurrection, Jesus, as man, has become superior to the angels. In other words, there is now (in the order of new creation) a man who is better than the angels.And so we have our first “better than” comparison, as Jonathan mentioned last week. The theme that we will see Hebrews return to again and again is that Jesus is better — better than the angels, better than Moses, better than Joshua, better than the first covenant and its place and priests and sacrifices. And Jesus makes better promises and gives us a better covenant and a better hope, a better country, and he is the better possession, than all worldly possessions.Cities Church, rehearse this theme explicitly for your souls. Whatever the comparison, Jesus is better. Better than comfort and ease, money and possessions, status and fame, marriage and children, work and leisure, sports and entertainment, all food and drink. And we do well not to forget or minimize it, but like Jesus says in Acts 20:35 remember it, and rehearse it.So, why angels? For one, they are present at the coronation. And angels serve as a standard of comparison to show the incarnate Son's progress — from below angels as man (Psalm 8) to above them as man by virtue of his achievement in human life, death, and resurrection. The point of starting with angels isn't that Hebrews' audience is tempted to worship them; the point is that the angels worship Jesus. How, then, can Hebrews' first readers, even ponder not worshiping the one the angels worship? You love the Jewish Scriptures; you think highly of angels. And the angels worship Jesus.How do these OT quotes work?This is the hardest part of the passage, and one of the toughest parts of Hebrews for us today: how he uses the Old Testament. What verses 5–6 are doing is plain enough: showing Jesus's superiority to angels. But how these quotations do that might make us scratch our heads.Jesus says in Matthew 13:52: “every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house, who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.” Hebrews is a master at this. Hebrews is a master class in how to use the Old Testament. And Hebrews does not leave the moment to go back and explain the ancient meaning of texts and leave them there, but he brings them into the present to show his readers their fullness of meaning and applications and significance now in Jesus — how God's word is living and active, that God is not just the one who has spoken, but the one who is speaking.Let me summarize how Hebrews uses these three OT quotations, and I'll keep it brief, and you can open up to the larger contexts, read these for yourself, and learn what Hebrews has to teach us (which will be an ongoing project in 2023).Look first at the middle quotation, which is from 2 Samuel 7:14: “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son.” This is from a massively important chapter in the Old Testament, where God makes an eternal royal covenant with King David. Unlike King Saul, before him, who had no dynasty, and never had a son on Israel's throne, David's dynasty, God promises, will never end: “When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up [to the throne] your offspring after you, who shall come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom . . . and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. [And then:] I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son.” In other words, David, your son will be Israel's king. Israel's king was God's “son” in the sense that God ruled the nation through the human king. And God's promise here in 2 Samuel 7 anticipates the coronation to come after David. At that coronation, when David's son is crowned king of God's people, he too, as David is as king, will be “son.” So, in 2 Samuel 7:14, God promises to crown David's son, and sons, in a kingly line that will endure until one king sits enthroned forever.Which leads to the first quote in verse 5, which is from Psalm 2 (which Acts 13 says is from David). Psalm 2 is a coronation psalm, written for the day a new king in David's line is crowned king of God's people. In verses 1–2, Israel's enemies may rage and conspire against God “and against his Anointed,” that is, the one anointed king, Messiah, the Christ. But, in verse 7, as his enemies conspire, David remembers God's decree from the day of his coronation: “You are my Son; today I have begotten you.” So, on the surface, 2 Samuel 7 and Psalm 2 are about human kings: David and his dynasty, one son, then the next, declared at his coronation to be God's “son,” his specially chosen and anointed human king of God's people. But remember our timing and location in Hebrews. We're not in Jerusalem in roughly 1000 B.C. Our setting is heaven, after Jesus's ascension. And so what Hebrews does is draw forward these coronation declarations for David's line to the climactic coronation of David's promised offspring, who is not just a christ, and a son, but the Christ, and the Son — the one whom previous anointed royal sons anticipated.So verse 5 is about Jesus, and God applying the promises and pageantry of Israel's ancient coronation declaration to him as his great, climactic crowning as King of kings. And verse 6, then, mentions the angels, quoting Deuteronomy 32:43: “Let all God's angels worship him.” In some ways, this one is easier on the application, though more tricky in the original text.Deuteronomy 32 is a “song of Moses,” before he gives the people his final blessing before his death. From verse 1 till 20, Moses is the speaker. Then God speaks from verse 20 to 27. Then Moses speaks again from verse 28 to 33. But then a third speaker seems to emerge in verses 34 to 42, who both speaks of himself as heaven's agent (verses 39-40) yet also says in verse 39, “See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god beside me.” Then, a new voice, which Hebrews takes to be the voice of God, enters in verse 43 and speaks about the agent: “Rejoice with him, O heavens; bow down to him, all [angels].” Which sounds like the coronation. So Hebrews brings verse 43 to the enthronement of Christ.So, we're back to our coronation scene in heaven. Jesus, who was lower than the angels with respect to his humanity, now has ascended to heaven and with his Father's welcome has taken his seat on the throne. And as the Father crowns his Son Lord of all, we hear the ancient coronation decree for David's line: “You are my Son, today I have begotten you” Then he turns and declares to the hosts of heaven, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son.” And then: “Let all God's angels worship him.” And if the angels worship him, how much more might we!Finally, then, what about “the name”?What is the more excellent “name”?Verse 4 again: “After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.” If you only have these few verses in front of you, it sure looks like the name is “Son.” He is introduced as “Son” in verse 2, and “Son” again in the coronation quotes in verse 5. And we'll see next week that verses 7–13 go back and forth comparing “the angels” and “the Son.” Most readers take “the name” here to be “Son,” and that very well may be it. Others have suggested God's own first-covenantal name.Recently I read an essay by the late British theologian John Webster who says, about Hebrews 1:4, “Perhaps there is a deliberate withholding of the name” (God Without Measure, 79). Pageantry? That got me thinking, What is “the name” everywhere else in the New Testament? Think of Acts, and the feverish attention to “the name” in Acts 2–5, and then in Acts 8–10 and the rest of the book. And what is “the name” that the apostle Paul says in Philippians 2 is “the name that is above every name”?And what if we take a step back from this immediate context of the opening scene of Hebrews, and ask: what name does Hebrews itself use for the next 12 chapters, and in particular in all the key passages, like 3:1–3; 4:14–16; 10:19; 12:1–2; 13:8; and the great doxology 13:20–21? The name of Jesus.And if Hebrews adds to the pageantry of heaven's coronation by deliberately withholding the name, then when does the name Jesus first appear? With dramatic flare in Hebrews 2:9: “At present [in this fallen world under the curse and sin, and in these last days] we do not yet see everything in subjection to humanity [as God designed it from the beginning], but we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.” At the end of the day, the issue is not exactly what Hebrews means by “the name” (if he even has one exact name in mind, among others), but that Jesus, the Son, is clearly better.Jesus Sat DownAs we close, let's finish with his sitting down, and the seat upon which he sat, and what his sitting made that seat.First, Jesus sat down as the long-promised greater son of David, now on heaven's throne, and now shown to be even greater than anticipated, not only David's heir but his Lord. He is exalted to the universe's seat of honor, to be served, praised, and worshiped, by men and angels.Second, he sat down to rule over all, as sovereign and judge, with all authority already his. From this throne, he speaks, sitting to teach his church (Matthew 5:1; 13:2; 15:29; Luke 5:3; John 6:3; 8:2), through his apostles and pastor-teachers, as well as rule the nations, and this will be his judgment seat on which he will sit to deliberate and judge (Luke 14:28, 31).Finally, he sat down with his atoning, purifying work at the cross having been completed. Now he sits in joyful, satisfied repose, anointed with oil of gladness. As we saw in Leviticus, the old-covenant high priest only stood in God's presence, when he entered once a year, but Jesus sits in the presence of God, and in doing so makes heaven's throne a mercy seat. So, brothers and sisters, let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16).At this Table, we draw near to the throne to sit and eat with the one who made purification for our sins, and as we eat, we join with the angels and worship him.

Just over a year ago I spoke to an old university friend who'd started a new business after needing to change careers due to an accident while working as a commercial oil and gas diver. John Webster talks about the tragedy that then hit!

This week on the Head Shepherd podcast we have Jason Strong, Managing Director of Meat & Livestock Australia Ltd. (MLA)Jason grew up on a farm and says "I can never remember not wanting to be a cow farmer." He says that winning a scholarship to the University of Illinois in his late teens was "transformative" in his career. "The most important thing was learning about meat grading and meat science. I got really excited about being a meat grader and came home [...] and realised we didn't have a meat grading system.... which is quite career limiting.""That's what got me started working with Dr Rod Polkinghorne and John Webster [...] that set up the Meat Standards, Australia system."Jason worked in various roles in Agriculture but with one common goal, to make the industry better for everyone. Now, as Managing Director of MLA, Jason gives us a run down of what MLA do, for our non-Australian listeners, and also what they are focusing on in the next few years. "At our core, we focus on research development and marketing."Jason makes a great point in saying that over MLAs time, they have invested in 12-13,000 projects. Which means it's hard to find something in the livestock sector they haven't looked into."When we think about research and development, so much of what was a challenge for us twenty years ago, [...] so many of those things have been solved or improved. So the breadth of things that we need to invest in, is a much shorter list now than it was 32 years ago"Jason says that MLA are focusing on the importing things going forward. "When we put our strategic plan together, we took a "Fewer, Bigger, Bolder approach." Mark asks what the "big ticket" items that MLA are focusing on."Sustainability," Jason says. "We've doubled investment in that space. We've committed to double our investment in adoption and extension and we also significantly increased our investment in traceability and biosecurity"Jason is very enthusiastic about the future of the industry, and as he should be.  "The industry is in an amazing shape. Particularly in the last five years. The success of the collective industry are coming to the fore" Considering the past few years and everything that has happened, Jason says that prices for red meat will remain strong. He says that the collective effort of the last 20 years, building markets and connecting with consumers, is now showing benefits."It's not a mistake. It didn't just happen [..] there's absolutely a component of where we're at at the moment. The underlying strength of where we are has come from all of the other things'' One benefit of such a strong market is that we have more certainty in our investments. "We can now make a direct connection between investment and benefit." Jason says. When it comes to genetics, farmers now know their decisions will actually pay off financially. Farmers can now buy rams with traits they know they will be rewarded for by the supply chain. This episode is a great reminder of how far the industry has come in the past 20 years and how exciting the next 20 will be. Thank you Jason for sharing your time with us here at neXtgen Agri. Check out The Hubthehub.nextgenagri.comOur community where our members have the opportunity to keep up to date with everything we are working on.

In John Webster's latest documentary he explores the question «What's wrong with the way we work?» “The Happy Worker” shows how work is organized - and why it's simply not working. John reveals the systemic problems which characterizes the workplace, exploring everything from lack of control, silence-culture to incompetent leaders and how it all leads to unhappiness, burnout and a feeling of «what's wrong with me». John explores: Why do we have this culture and where does it come from? «The problem is that nobody talks about it. Everybody's going around pretending that everything is okay, and it isn't,» he says. We also touch upon how being a freelancer can provide a high sense of meaning, and how important that is for our happiness! John (55) is a documentary film director & producer who has directed and produced documentaries for over 30 years.

Ad agencies often claim to have no set style, that each campaign is created from scratch, bespoke for every client.It may be true for the mediocre ones, but not the great ones.Nobody used to confuse the work of AMV, BBH and GGT.The same with Wieden, Chiat and Fallon.Today, stick me in front of a tv and I'd fancy my chances at picking the Droga5.Or spotting the Uncommon on a tube platform.Because although ad agencies use the same ingredients, like chefs, they favour some more than others.We fight the idea of having a certain style in our business, ‘I thought that was one of yours' can feel like a slap in the face.Why?Most creative industries embrace it.Architects aren't chosen because they have no particular style.Clothes aren't bought because the designer covers the whole map.Does anyone confuse Quentin Tarantino films with Wes Anderson's?No, that's the point, their style is the attraction.Their philosophy, which has been honed over the years by everything they've consumed, the films, tv, magazines, conversations, experiences, comic books, even ads, that's what you're buying.It's the same with good Creatives.They have likes and dislikes, that creates a style.If asked you to spoof an ad by David Abbott, Tom McElligott, or John Webster, you probably could, because you'd recognise their patterns. Cabell Harris is the same.Whatever the agency or size of budget, he manages to create work that feels personal.Quirky, human with a hint of mischief.Take his One Show 1997 cover, (for my money – the best awards cover annual full stop).One Show Annuals are highly coveted by creatives, sometimes too coveted - getting coveted out of offices and are never seen again.Cabell came up with a great solution: a thief resistant cover.So dull it repels would-be Creative thieves.He spoofed a giant science book - The Giant Book of Spores'.Brilliant insight.Brilliant idea.Beautifully executed.We had a great chat about this and the rest of his work, and, by the end, I was even pronouncing his name correctly. (Cab-ell, not K-ball.)Hope you enjoy.

We're revisiting what creativity is, how to express it and find it, with a legend of the advertising industry Dave Trott. Just as John Cleese wrote brilliant sitcom and sketches, Dave created brilliant advertising over a career in which he founded five agencies including Gold Greenlees Trott, Bainsfair Sharkey Trott and Chick Smith Trott.What I think you're going to love about this conversation is Dave's to the point, sharp witted, no BS worldview. David Ogilvy's greatest creation is David Ogilvy he says while his real heroes are Bill Bernbach, John Webster and Edward de Bono.We talk about the conditions for creative outcomes, serendipity and mistakes, the nonsense of ad awards, getting upstream of problems and selling tampons to lorry drivers. I think you're going to enjoy this one.Subscribe for more here.Follow me on Twitter.

‘I've just done a Volvo ad with no car in it, it doesn't get any better than that!'Those were the first I heard on day one at AMV/BBDO.It was the Art Director's way of saying 'it's good here'.I appreciated the intent, but thought it was weird.Who cares if the ad has a car in it? Is it a good ad?But that's how a certain group of creatives think.For them wins are - running an ad word-free, securing hot director X to shoot their ad, getting the word 'dick' approved in a headline, keeping a logo as small as it was on the initial rough, and yes, whether they can avoid showing the product.Those kind of things can be helpful, but they shouldn't be the goal.But, to them, they're just doing their job, which they see as being creative.Innovating.Breaking rules.Going crazy.‘Fucking around with shit'.Being lead by what's new, different and of course, their own instincts.Clients are viewed as obstacles. Research is for dullards.They often create interesting work, but not much of it runs.Why? ‘The client bottled it!' or ‘The agency rolled over'.Maybe if they were called 'Communicators' rather than 'Creatives' they wouldn't feel the need to appear so damned creative all the time?Instead of spending all their waking hours with their noses in Japanese animation, Dutch deconstructed typography or surrealist photography, maybe they'd offset if with subjects linked to communication? Rather than just look forward, maybe they'd look back at what worked, what didn't and why?Maybe they'd ask people outside the creative department what they thought?Maybe they'd see data, psychology and research as helpful?There are people in creative departments like this, I've worked with them.Tom & Walter, Rich & Andy, David Abbott, John Webster, they tend to do better work than the first group.But if you feel your gang is the first group, check out the trailer by South Korean animator Seunghee Kim for her film 'The Realm of Deepest Knowing'. It's cool.If you feel that second group is more you, you may enjoy this chat with Orlando Wood.He's the Chief Innovation Officer at System1, where he forensically observes links between advertising, psychology and the creative arts.We chat about his findings on what's working, not working and why (which have been published with the IPA in two volumes; 'Lemon' and 'Look Out').Hope it's useful.
