#215: Missouri farmer Liz Graznak tells Linley about facing the season after the very recent funding cuts have left her operation, Happy Hollow Farm, without a quarter of its regular sales channels. Many organic farmers have found themselves in the same ill-timed situation this spring, having bought their seed and started many crops weeks ago, only to learn they will not be supplying local schools and institutions with their food.Liz Graznak founded Real Organic Project-certified Happy Hollow Farm in Columbia, Missouri in 2010 after earning her Master's Degree in Plant Breeding from Cornell University. Her farm has grown into a thriving 16-acre diversified operation with veggies, flowers and laying hens. Liz recently served on the National Organic Standards Board and was recognized as Organic Farmer of the Year at Marbleseed (MOSES) in 2021.To watch a video version of this podcast with access to the full transcript and links relevant to our conversation, please visit:https://realorganicproject.org/liz-graznak-surprise-25-percent-market-gone-215The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year.

The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price.

#213: Soil scientist Jennifer Pett-Ridge joins Linley to talk about the opportunities organic agricultural presents to the planet's need to drawdown and sequester carbon, with the caveat that instead of just storing carbon, we are actively using it to grow healthy foods.Jennifer Pett-Ridge is a senior staff scientist at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and an adjunct professor at UC Merced.

The Competition Commission is girding itself for a fight with Big Tech companies like Google and Meta Platforms after publishing its provisional findings in its investigation into the impact that Big Tech has had on the South African news media sector. To unpack the provisional report, which was published on Monday, Competition Commission senior analyst and technical lead Donnavan-John Linley joined the TechCentral Show to discuss the findings. He chats about how the commission is attempting to assist local publishers deal with the rise of competing social media platforms owned by US tech giants and why the regulator is determined to intervene in the market to support the funding of journalism in South Africa in the digital age. Linley tells TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod about: • Why the Competition Commission decided to initiate its probe into digital platforms and the impact these platforms are having on South Africa's news media; • The findings contained in the provisional report and why the commission reached the conclusions it did – including its recommendation that Google pay as much as R500-million/year in “compensation” over a three- to five-year period in an effort to level the playing field; • The likely reaction from Big Tech to the commission's proposals, and what might happen if they don't agree to play ball; • The risk of provoking a backlash from the Donald Trump administration – already Trump has accused the EU of using antitrust fines levied on US tech companies as a form of taxation and threatened retaliation in response; • How the proposed compensation of the local news media might work, and who would be eligible to receive the funding from Google; • The impact of artificial intelligence on the South African media industry and how the commission has dealt with this in its provisional report; and • Whether the commission's findings amount to regulatory overreach – are the proposals it has made really warranted, or is the media industry simply experiencing capitalism's “creative destruction” that will ultimately drive innovation in news media?

Joseph Linley, is stepping onto the music scene with his debut single, I’m with you, out now! With an honest, heartfelt approach and a touch of “main character energy,” twenty-six-year-old Joseph’s dynamic debut promises to connect with listeners. “The concept for I’m with you came to me a few years ago when I saw people I cared about who were hurting,” Joseph explains. “I wanted them to know that, even though I couldn’t fix things, I was standing with them.” If you’re wondering where you’ve seen that surname before, Will Linley would be the correct answer.

Donald Macleod shines a light on charming and often enigmatic composer, Thomas Linley JnrEnglish composer, Thomas Linley the Younger was destined to become one of the brightest musical stars of eighteenth century. No less a person than Mozart, who was also a personal friend, hailed him as a ‘true genius'. Even so, Linley's life was troubled. He and his siblings were ruthlessly driven by their ambitious father. He saw his beloved sister become fodder for the celebrity-hungry gossip mongers of the British press and must have wondered if he might be next. He was forced to navigate a dangerous atmosphere of prurience and moral suspicion about the private lives of ‘theatre people' like himself. A cloud of mystery hovers over Tom's shocking and early death at the age of just 22. Donald Macleod is joined by Linley's biographer, Tony Scotland, to shine a light on this charming and often enigmatic composer, alongside music by Tom and his circle.Music Featured: Linley the Younger: Music for The Tempest (No 1, Arise! ye spirits of the storm) Geminiani: Violin Sonata in D Major, Op 5, No 4 (1st & 2nd mvts) Linley the Younger: The Song of Moses (extracts) Boyce: Symphony No 7 in B flat major Nardini: Sonata No 1 for 2 Violins in G Major Linley the Younger: To heal the wound a bee had made Linley the Younger: Sonata in A major Linley the Younger: A Lyric Ode on the Fairies, Aerial Beings and Witches of Shakespeare (excerpt) Linley the Elder(arr.

What has no jaw, inverted horizontal teeth, saggy skin and can produce litres of suffocating slime when touched? it's the episode you've been waiting for… The hagfish special is here. Dr Thom is back from his stint offshore, and The Professor pretty much now lives in a submarine, but that hasn't stopped them from finally reuniting to make this special episode all about hagfish. We've talked about them a lot on the show, and decided it's time to pass them the mic. So expect lots of slimy stories, toothy tales and a whole load of hagfish trivia you never knew you needed. There's lots of updates after so many recent deep sea expeditions, with Thom's latest cruise discovering many new species and Alan sharing live updates from the sub. Keep up with their latest goings-on via twitter! We speak to the king of the hagfish, Professor Doug Fudge, who has been studying these critters and their (in)famous slime for decades. We ask all the interesting questions like: how do they make so much slime, do they have any predators and why do they look like that? Plus, we have another instalment of the fan-favourite: Coffee with Andrew. This time, Andrew talks us through his love of hagfish, how to successfully remove their slime, and why brushing their teeth is super important!

This time around, I did something different with the podcast. I brought 2 people to talk with: Linley who had worked with me in the past, and Sarah who's never worked with me. They don't know each other and the 3 of us never spent time together, but I thought this would be fun. One of the reasons I'm doing this is that both of them are signed up to come to the next Intensive in a few weeks. I love doing this kind of stuff. I love working with coaches on how to build their business. So naturally, we played around one simple question: how can I help you create your next client? Enjoy! Love. Rich P.S.

#157: A continuation of Linley's conversation (one year later and in-person!) with Professor Tim Bowles of UC Berkeley's Agroecology Lab.

In deep sea news: Norway has decided to go ahead with deep sea mining, cold coral reefs are being discovered, and hoards of marine fungi have been found in the twilight zone! But more importantly than all of that: the Professor was awarded an OBE! His sword and noble steed are currently in the post (first class), and we're hoping they reach him in Perth from the Palace. We've also started a new segment with long-time friend of the show, Andrew Stewart who has an interesting hobby of manufacturing cod-liver shark-liver oil. Expect more unexpected stories from Andrew in future episodes! Finally, we want to say thanks again for your support!

Scientific paper & news article Hagfish genome sequenced Largest cold-water coral reef to date has been found Guest info Andrew's bio Andrew's blog on the Gut Stuffer 2000 Soundtrack of the month A Song About an Anglerfish - Hank Green Glossary Cold-water corals - Deep-water corals (or cold-water corals) grow in water temperatures of 4 - 12°C. Unlike shallow water corals, they do not depend on a symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae) for growth and survival, resulting in slower growth. Deep-sea mining - The process of extracting manganese nodules from the deep ocean floor. Hagfish - An eel-shaped jawless fish. Hagfish are marine predators and scavengers. Hull - A hull is the watertight body of a ship. Megalodon - An extinct species of giant shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago. Metagenomes - Genetic material taken from the environment rather than from one individual. OBE - (Order of the British Empire) is a British award rewarding contributions to the arts and sciences, work with charitable and welfare organisations, and public service outside the civil service. Squalene - Squalene is a natural oil that comes from shark liver. Submarine - A submarine (or sub) is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater. Thrusters - Manoeuvering thrusters (bow thrusters and stern thrusters) are propulsion devices built into, or mounted to, either the bow or stern, of a ship to make it more manoeuvrable.

This week Linley and marty go deep on the meaning of a Real-Time Crime Center and the growing surveillance apparatus of the police.First we review the emergency shelter numbers for the last week.Article mentioned in this episode: https://www.wired.com/story/real-time-crime-centers-rtcc-us-police/
In our final episode of 2023 co-ghosts Linley and Marty take a look back on the year and weep for there were no other worlds to conquer.Topics include lots of infrastructure projects (not kidding). Bike lanes, large construction projects, taxes. Also we get some discussion of last winter's city council elections, conservative fear, and doofuses who get in front of the cameras.Bonus content: during a bit of joking about the relative safety of our corners of okc, the listener will encounter the wail of a siren. Classic stuff.See you all next year.peace,co-ghosts
This week comes with a Trigger Warning for drugs/addiction/rehab/predatory 13th stepping.Co-ghosts Linley & Marty discuss drugs, tall buildings, and holidays. Plus! Marty issues a small but sincere apology. And! Co-ghosts invite audience participation for next week.
2 Peter 1:1 Names are really interesting aren't they? My own father was called Linley when he was born but people only ever knew him as Bob. The only time anybody tried to use his birth name was when he went into hospital as an old man, and it sounded ridiculous. Some people have names that have been passed down in the family or were given because of the day on which they were born. In the New Testament we often hear the writer being called Simon or Peter and occasionally Simon Peter, but in the Greek for this verse he is called Simeon. Only on one other occasion in the New Testament is he referred to as Simeon and that is in Acts 15:14, which records the Council of Jerusalem. Simeon came from a strong Jewish background but in that crucial meeting he declared that God had visited the Gentiles and made them a people for himself. This was incredibly radical language. Gentiles used to be the outsiders. They were excluded from the citizenship that the Jews enjoyed. They lived without hope. But now, in Christ, they had been given a new identity and Simeon was wanting to persuade the Council that the doors should be fully thrown open to include them. Peter wrote this letter to people from a Gentile, that is to say non-Jewish, background and he wanted to celebrate the new status that they had acquired in Christ. His own name expressed that miracle. Yes, he had been born as Simeon, a Jew, but now, as a follower of Christ, he had been named Peter, meaning ‘rock'. Whatever the story may be behind your name thank God that, in Christ, we have each been given a new identity and sense of direction as we build our lives on the rock of our faith in Jesus. Question In what way has becoming a Christian changed the way you look at yourself and those around you? Prayer Lord Jesus, thank you that you know me by name. Give me your strength as I seek to help others to understand your love for them. Amen
#146: Linley Dixon, co-director of the Real Organic Project, speaks to the progress of our movement and the challenges we face, including new and misleading terms like "climate smart agriculture" and a misunderstood villainization of tillage. Linley was the lead-off speaker at our recent in-person event at Abby Rockefeller's Churchtown Dairy in Hudson NY, in mid-October.Dr. Linley Dixon is the co-director of the Real Organic Project and the owner-operator of Adobe House Farm in Durango, Colorado. She has a Master's Degree in Plant and Soil Science, specializing in Organic Agriculture, and also earned a PhD in Plant Pathology from the University of West Virginia, specializing in tomato diseases. Linley has worked as a scientist for both The Cornucopia Institute and at the USDA.

Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/farmsWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000 Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/
(Unlocked from Patreon) This week I'm joined by Pastiche Psyop (@pastichepsyop) to discuss Santa Cruz, the University of Santa Cruz and its very curious psychology department, Thomas Sarbin, Craig Haney, David Marlowe, Frank X Barron, Bert Kaplan, G. William Domhoff, the entirely unrelated Santa Cruz serial killer boom, Ed Kemper, Herb Mullin, especially John Linley Frazier, and a wide range of very curious topics. It's extremely good.
