We wrap up our time at the Direct to Consumer Symposium with a relaxed final recording, catching up with friends and talking about what's been happening lately in Monterey and back home. We sit down with Jason Haas to catch up on everything happening at Tablas Creek Vineyard, then check in with Grant Wood about what's new in his world at Patz & Hall. Kelly Cornett joins us alongside Jessah Diaz to talk about The Ultimate Hospitality Challenge game show, which Jessah won. It turns into a fun look at what actually makes someone great at hospitality and how you leave a lasting impression. Big thanks to the Direct to Consumer Symposium and Free the Grapes for having us as the official podcast. We had a blast and already look forward to doing it again next year. Cheers. [Ep 402]

Four hundred episodes. In classic Wine Makers Pod style, this one sorta snuck up on us. Technically, we breezed past our 400th episode somewhere in the Monterey fog while recording at the DTC Wine Symposium. So we decided to package two of our favorite DTC interviews with two of our favorite people on the planet, Elaine Chukan Brown and Duskie Estes. Both delivered keynote addresses, bringing the outside perspective we love so much about this conference. Elaine took us on a deep dive into California wine history, showing how past challenges mirror today's conditions and reminding us that this industry has always found its way forward through collaboration and innovation. Duskie's story, full of grit and infectious enthusiasm, laid out a path to success built on perseverance and community. On the show, the conversations were mostly what you'd expect from old friends at a great conference; a chance to catch up, laugh, and reflect. To mark the milestone, Brian, Bart, Sam, and Jasmine sat down to reminisce about eight years and 399 episodes. We revisited a few favorites and took a moment to appreciate just how far this little project has come. Most importantly, we raised a glass to everyone who helped us get here, the hundreds of guests, the thousands of listeners, and of course, our dear friend John Myers. So sit down, pop something special, and get ready for the next 100 shows. Thanks for being part of this wild ride. [Ep 400]

What Matters Most When Opening a Coffee Shop- and Where to Spend Your Money - Episode #436 Cat & Cloud Coffee www.catandcloud.com/ Summary Thinking about opening a coffee shop? Here's where your money actually matters—and where it doesn't. In this episode, Chris Baca and Jared Truby…aka Dale ;) unpack what actually matters when you're opening (or refreshing) a café: create a real feeling of place without overspending on flashy build-out, “blow the bag” on the essentials (espresso machine, grinders, and water filtration), and don't get distracted by optional prestige projects like roasting, direct trade, or origin travel before the core experience is dialed. They also zoom out on how café design has evolved since early third-wave homogeneity and land on a grounded definition of “sustaining excellence”: either innovate with intention or “plus the show” by obsessively maintaining the details that signal care—because culture is what people learn to accept as normal. Chapters 00:00 Monterey and Coffee 07:00 Opening a New Coffee Shop? 13:30 Business reflects the people who started it 21:00 Should I Roast Myself? 29:00 Homogeny in Coffee Shop Design 33:20 What's Worth It vs. What's Hype 42:00 Plus the Show Cat & Cloud: Instagram www.instagram.com/catcloudcoffee/ Webstore www.catandcloud.com/ We LOVE our Wholesale Partners!

We recently returned to Pinnacles National Park, a place we hadn't visited since our first trip in 2013. Situated about 75 minutes south of Monterey, California, Pinnacles is known for its dramatic volcanic rock formations, remnants of a once 8,000-foot volcano. When we first visited, Pinnacles had just become a national park, and we stopped there as part of our journey to visit all the U.S. national parks. This time, we had a different reason to return. Karen wanted to explore one of the park's talus caves. In this episode, we discuss our visit to the park, where we hiked into the lower portion of Bear Gulch Cave, then to Bear Gulch Reservoir, and finally into the high peaks. We also dive into the park's fascinating geology, its history as a national monument established by Theodore Roosevelt, and the role of the Civilian Conservation Corps in building many of the trails and structures still used today. And of course, no visit to Pinnacles would be complete without talking about California condors. Pinnacles is the only national park that actively manages a condor release site, and we explain how these remarkable birds were brought back from the brink of extinction. If you're planning a visit to Pinnacles, this episode is for you, as we also share practical tips to help you make the most of your time in the park. ----- Follow this link to join us on Patreon.

It has been about a year since a fire burned the battery plant at Moss Landing in Monterey county. While the fire prompted many residents to move away from homes surrounding the plant, the government's stance on the aftermath of the fire is that it left no significant environmental impact. Locals are still challenging that narrative. In the wake of federal immigration agents killing another person in Minneapolis, Minnesota, over the weekend, California lawmakers are moving to place further limits on how these agents can operate and maneuver in the state.

Patrick welcomes listeners on a March for Life broadcast, exploring pro-life action, Communion questions, and the Catholic approach to marriage, often through real caller situations. He moves from scriptural analysis—like the temptation of Jesus and “only God is good”—to conversations on the effects of birth control and spiritual experiences in modern life. Support, clarity, and a touch of candor shape every moment, with Patrick encouraging authentic faith at every turn. Lyn (email) - Regarding your conversation with Marco and the de-frocked priest - I was a little surprised that you didn’t caution him not to read on the Internet about his friend. (01:09) Dusty - Can my Catholic wife take the Eucharist if I am not Catholic? Also, a question Matthew 5. (03:21) John - How many babies does birth control kill per year and home many times does it fail? (11:27) Barbara - I have been a Eucharistic Minister for years and I am considering receiving on the tongue.

(19:14) Paul - Why did Jesus say, 'why do you call me good, only God is good?’ (27:17) Mary - My young daughter said she saw the ghost of my sister. I called a priest and he came to bless our house.

I am scared to receive on the mouth because it fell out. What can I do? (44:31)

We're continuing from 11 Nov 2025, discussing the first subsection in his next chapter, chapter 5 (The Relation of Ideological Tyranny to the Authoritarian State), called "Revelation 13 as a Model of Ideological Tyranny" based on the insights from a master observer of both types of totalitarian socialisms on the Left, national socialism -- sometimes called fascism -- and the kind of socialism that the Communists in East Germany and Russia had during the 1900s, during the life of Dr. Thielicke. (USSR meant Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). We go from pp. 53 thru the top of 62. (See 11 Nov 2025, "Ideologies as Idolatry" for the last episode in this series). Our return guest today on The Republican Professor Podcast is the former professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg in West Germany, Dr. Helmut Thielicke, Ph.D., D.Theol. (Philosophy and Theology). Professor Thielicke once again joins us through his teaching in his Theological Ethics, Vol. 2: Politics. My copy was purchased at Old Capitol Books (new location) in Monterey, California, across from Nick the Greek restaurant on Alvarado Street (their old location was 559 Tyler, Monterey, CA, across from the Peet's Coffee and was formerly Book Haven for many years), and is a hard copy published in 1969 by Fortress Press and edited by William H. Lazareth. Thielicke died before he was able to come on to The Republican Professor Podcast. We thank Fortress Press for making the book available. Check out their catalogue for a full listing of their very interesting titles, and buy one. Get a copy of this for yourself and following along in our transformative, performative reading of it as we make fair use on his insights, with fresh scholarly commentary from me, and allow it to shape our understanding of American Politics. This is part 10 in a series on The Republican Professor Podcast, an introduction to theological reflection on American government. Here, we continue the topic of the nature and power of "ideology" in Communist Socialist and National Socialist (sometimes called by others fascistic socialism/fascism). Our very special guest today is, once again, the esteemed and long-time Professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg, Helmut Thielicke. And I've invited Professor Thielicke to join us today through my transformative, performative reading (with my scholarly commentary upon) and fair use of his teaching on this topic in his magisterial "Theological Ethics, Volume 2: Politics." My copy of the book was published in 1969 by Fortress Press. Please buy a copy of the book and follow along with our study of this material. Please, please support your brick and mortar used book dealers as well. Professor Thielicke died before we were able to invite him in person as a guest on the podcast. Thanks to Fortress Press, the book is still in print and would be a valuable addition, indeed, to your personal library. Please support the work of Fortress Press and buy the book, and check out the other selections that they carry, as well. The Republican Professor Podcast is a pro-deeply-conversing-on-the-theological-aspects-of-the-nature-of-government podcast. Therefore, welcome Professor Helmut Thielicke !

The Tell Me More crew kicks off a new semester at First Baptist Arlington with Luke back in the studio, a fresh staff structure, and a renewed focus on “the path of life”—the narrow road of discipleship to Jesus. After some light banter and life updates (including a whale-watching trip to Monterey and a memorable Pebble Beach outing), the conversation turns to heavier, timely themes: cultural polarization, how everyday decisions can escalate or de-escalate conflict, and why the church's most urgent work is still making disciples.From there, the group unpacks Sunday's sermon emphasis on formation: the world is constantly shaping people (often through “spooky algorithms,” surveillance capitalism, and parasocial online influence), so following Jesus requires intentional counter-formation through spiritual practices and community. They explore what “flourishing” means biblically—distinct from prosperity or ease—highlighting that faithful discipleship can include suffering, persecution, and sacrifice, while still being a life marked by God's presence, purpose, and fruitfulness. A vivid story about “Umaru,” a persecuted evangelist in West Africa, anchors this definition of flourishing.The episode closes with practical next steps for listeners: Midweek programming is starting (kids, students, Perspectives, care groups, and more), and the church is launching daily Bible readings/devotional guides delivered by email to help members stay rooted on “The Jesus Way.”

Patrick questions what happens to meaning, purpose, and the human soul when AI and robotics perform nearly every task faster and better than people. He blends concerns over skills lost and spiritual emptiness with a Catholic perspective, weaving together listener calls about technology, and the enduring search for fulfillment as machines reshape daily life. Unexpected juxtapositions of futuristic dread and faith-driven hope spark reflection on what actually grounds humanity.

It’s a sleepy Saturday following a torrential rainstorm all the way through Christmas week. And here in SoCal the rain has passed — for now. Do you have a leak? Today’s first caller lives in a house built in 1935; it’s a Monterey colonial with a California basement, which means just enough space to service the gravity furnace. It doesn't have a sump pump installed, and when it rains, he gets about 2 inches of rain down there. He’s wondering if he should be concerned about the lack of a sump pump following the recent rains.

Patrick steers lively conversations about faith, culture, and Catholic living, opening with reflections on religious freedom and the unique presence of a presidential message honoring the Immaculate Conception. He responds with candor to concerns about unreliable AI-generated information, offers practical guidance on distinguishing authentic homeschooling, and questions variations in liturgical practices, always bringing listeners back to Church tradition. Unexpected questions about friendship, morality, and family struggles challenge Patrick to give direct, compassionate advice with both gravity and warmth. David - Did you talk about the statement from the President on the Immaculate Conception? I think it is worth talking about regarding our religious freedom as Catholics. (00:39) Mary - I think Chat GPT can be wrong sometimes. Chat GPT even got the Pope's name wrong at one point. I am skeptical. (03:51) Shannon - I homeschooled for 12 years. We need to distinguish schooling at home with a public-school curriculum vs true homeschooling where parents have control over the curriculum. (06:48) Chris - I noticed at a Church I attend, they don't say 'The Mass is ended'. Also, the priest at Confession didn't make me say the Act of Contrition. (11:30) Bill (email) - I bow my head when “Jesus Christ” is said during Mass. Is this part of the rubrics or traditional or am I doing something that doesn’t belong? (20:47) Cathy - People bowing to the priest. I was taught that you should bow for the cross and not the priest. We also would bow when the priest holds up the Bible. What is your view? (23:43) Patrick in Monterey, CA - I thought no graven images were allowed in the Church? Doesn't the Bible prohibit graven images?

Fritz welcomes longtime colleague and respected viticulture authority Larry Bettiga in this episode for an in-depth look at the evolution of Monterey County's wine industry. With more than four decades of experience, Larry offers a rare, firsthand perspective on how the region transformed from scattered early vineyards into one of the country's most significant cool-climate grape-growing areas. Larry explains how Monterey's dramatic coastal influence, daily wind patterns, and diverse soils shaped both the opportunities and challenges for growers. He and Fritz unpack the early years of vineyard expansion, including the misalignment of some varieties with climate conditions and how improved temperature modeling and clone selection later steered the region toward better outcomes. The conversation also explores Larry's extensive research on rootstocks, irrigation, canopy management, and disease control. His comparison of dormant vines, green potted vines, and tall-format grafted vines provides growers with valuable, practical guidance on establishing healthy, high-performing vineyards. This episode delivers a blend of regional history, applied science, and grounded, grower-focused lessons, capped with Larry's reflections on the future of extension work and its continued importance in California viticulture. In this episode, you will hear: How Monterey County became a major coastal winegrowing region Why early plantings struggled, and how growers adapted with better temperature and clone data A practical comparison of dormant, green, and tall-format grafted vines Lessons from decades of research on rootstocks, canopy management, and disease control The future outlook for UC Cooperative Extension in California viticulture Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

On today's episode of the America's Work Force Union Podcast, Casey Van Den Heuvel, business representative for Sheet Metal Workers Local 104, shared insights into the ongoing challenges faced by union workers in California's Monterey and Santa Cruz regions. The discussion centered on the fight to maintain Project Labor Agreements (PLA) in Watsonville, the importance of union activism and member engagement, as well as broader challenges related to fair contracting and construction industry standards. Local 104 has over 9,000 members and spans 49 counties in California, from the Oregon border to Ventura County. Tom Buffenbarger, independent labor voice and retired International President of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, joined the America's Work Force Union Podcast to discuss the Boeing strike in St. Louis, his thoughts on Ford Motor Company Chairman Jim Farley's comments on America's skilled labor shortage and the uncertainties facing the U.S. economy in 2026.
The latest AgNet News Hour delivers a wide-ranging look at the issues shaping American agriculture—from meat-industry shakeups to the rapid evolution of organic farming technology. Hosts Nick Papagni and Lorrie Boyer blend personal updates with in-depth interviews and industry analysis, creating a vivid picture of the pressures and opportunities facing today's producers. Holiday Reflections and Shifting Trends in American Beef The program opens with lighthearted Thanksgiving conversation, including cooking traditions and reflections on a recent interview about preparing the perfect turkey. But the tone quickly shifts as the hosts discuss a major jolt to the U.S. beef industry: Tyson Foods' decision to close a key Nebraska processing facility. The plant, which employed roughly 3,000 workers and handled nearly 5% of daily U.S. beef slaughter, has broad implications for cattle markets, regional economies, and long-term production capacity. Nick and Lorrie explore the underlying pressures contributing to the closure, including: Declining cattle numbers Rising labor and operational costs Expanding automation Increasing regulatory burdens Concerns for rural communities dependent on packing-house jobs These factors, they note, are reshaping beef production and accelerating the push toward efficiency and technology across the supply chain. Spotlight on the Organic Grower Summit in Monterey The show transitions into an extended conversation with Matt Jungmann, Senior Director of Events for the Organic Grower Summit (OGS), scheduled for December 3–4 in Monterey, California. Jungmann outlines the mission and growth of the summit, which brings together growers, researchers, suppliers, and innovators advancing the organic marketplace. He highlights several key components of this year's event: Educational Sessions & Key Issues Regulatory challenges for U.S. organic producers Labor shortages and rising wage pressures Banking, finance, and risk management Regenerative farming and soil health Marketing, consumer trends, and retailer engagement Retail chains such as Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Sprouts—longtime champions of organic demand—continue to play a significant role in pushing the category forward. Automation, Robotics, and New Tech Demonstrations Jungmann emphasizes that technology is becoming a central force in the organic sector. While organic acreage is growing steadily rather than rapidly, he notes that the barriers to converting new ground remain high. For many producers, automation offers a path to improved efficiency and long-term sustainability. Among the most anticipated summit attractions: Autonomous weeding and cultivation machines AI-driven tools for mechanical pest and weed control Concept robotics from startups such as Reservoir Hands-on demonstrations showing how machines perform in real organic environments He stresses that as chemical options narrow—especially with fewer new pesticides entering the organic toolbox—mechanical and robotic solutions are filling critical gaps. Community, Collaboration, and the Organic Grower of the Year Beyond technology, Youngman celebrates the strong community that defines organic agriculture. The summit fosters a sense of fellowship, giving growers space to exchange ideas, compare seasons, and learn from firsthand experience. He also highlights the Organic Grower of the Year finalists, representing innovation, stewardship, and leadership across multiple states. The award underscores the dedication required to farm organically in an era marked by rising costs, fluctuating markets, and rigorous regulatory frameworks. California's Regulatory Reality vs. the Rest of the Nation The interview includes a candid discussion of how California's farming environment differs dramatically from states like Illinois, where Jungmann grew up. California producers face: Significantly higher labor costs More intensive regulatory requirements Water uncertainty Environmental compliance challenges Market pressures from global competitors with lower production costs Jungmann argues that the future of California agriculture may hinge on growers' ability to embrace new efficiencies—and events like OGS help equip them for that transition. Industry Conversations Continue at the National Association of Farm Broadcasting Convention After the interview concludes, the show returns to Lorrie Boyer, who recounts her recent trip to the National Association of Farm Broadcasting annual convention in Kansas City. The event provided a deep dive into: Commodity and livestock market outlooks Fertilizer prices and global supply chains Weather impacts on crop production Innovations in machinery and agritech Geopolitical pressures influencing U.S. agriculture Consumer nutrition trends and the federal MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) report She also notes discussions around Proposition 12, nutrition policy, new consumer-facing pork campaigns, and the impact of synthetic food dyes on children's health. Rising Consumer Awareness and the Push for Better Food Quality The show ends with a discussion about food dyes and the slow pace of regulatory change. A parent from California shared how removing dyes transformed her son's health—an example the hosts use to highlight growing consumer scrutiny of food ingredients. This concern ties directly back to the organic movement and the mission of improving food quality, even as healthier products come at a higher cost. Final Thoughts From meat-industry upheaval to breakthroughs in organic farming, the AgNet News Hour offers a candid snapshot of modern agriculture's evolving landscape. Whether it's automation, regulation, or shifting consumer demands, producers across the country are adapting quickly—and conversations like these help illuminate the challenges and opportunities ahead.

Because this week we hosted Unpacked Live, a—you guessed it—live version of the podcast in partnership with Visit California in Boston, Massachusetts. In 2022, Visit California launched Visit Native California, and the goal with the Boston live event was to celebrate California's diverse Native communities. Unpacked host Aislyn Greene was joined onstage by Christina Lonewolf Martinez, a Monterey-based private chef and founder of Chieftess Monterey Bay, who is reintroducing Indigenous ingredients and practices to California's central coast. On stage, Christina shared her early life and how working with local Central Coast tribes like the Esselen people, she is reviving and celebrating Indigenous ingredients like acorn flour and seaweed—and using her fine-dining training to bring them to life in brilliant new ways. In this episode, we go deeper. Christina shares more of her family's background, the Central Coast's Indigenous foodways and living traditions, and where she loves to eat on a rare day off.

Patrick questions what happens to meaning, purpose, and the human soul when AI and robotics perform nearly every task faster and better than people. He blends concerns over skills lost and spiritual emptiness with a Catholic perspective, weaving together listener calls about technology, and the enduring search for fulfillment as machines reshape daily life. Unexpected juxtapositions of futuristic dread and faith-driven hope spark reflection on what actually grounds humanity.

We're continuing from 15 Nov 2024, discussing the next subsection of Chapter 4 (The Pragmatism and Idolatry of the Ideologies), called "Ideologies as Idolatry" based on the insights from a master observer of both types of totalitarian socialisms on the Left, national socialism -- sometimes called fascism -- and the kind of socialism that the Communists in East Germany and Russia had during the 1900s, during the life of Dr. Thielicke. (USSR meant Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). We go from pp. 46 thru 52, finishing that chapter from last year (see 15 Nov 2024, "Law and Ideology" for the last episode in this series). Our return guest today on The Republican Professor Podcast is the former professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg in West Germany, Dr. Helmut Thielicke, Ph.D., D.Theol. (Philosophy and Theology). Professor Thielicke once again joins us through his teaching in his Theological Ethics, Vol. 2: Politics. My copy was purchased at Old Capitol Books (new location) in Monterey, California, across from Nick the Greek restaurant on Alvarado Street (their old location was 559 Tyler, Monterey, CA, across from the Peet's Coffee and was formerly Book Haven for many years), and is a hard copy published in 1969 by Fortress Press and edited by William H. Lazareth. Thielicke died before he was able to come on to The Republican Professor Podcast. We thank Fortress Press for making the book available. Check out their catalogue for a full listing of their very interesting titles, and buy one. Get a copy of this for yourself and following along in our transformative, performative reading of it as we make fair use on his insights, with fresh scholarly commentary from me, and allow it to shape our understanding of American Politics. This is part 9 in a series on The Republican Professor Podcast, an introduction to theological reflection on American government. Here, we continue the topic of the nature and power of "ideology" in Communist Socialist and National Socialist (sometimes called by others fascistic socialism/fascism). Our very special guest today is, once again, the esteemed and long-time Professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg, Helmut Thielicke. And I've invited Professor Thielicke to join us today through my transformative, performative reading (with my scholarly commentary upon) and fair use of his teaching on this topic in his magisterial "Theological Ethics, Volume 2: Politics." My copy of the book was published in 1969 by Fortress Press. Please buy a copy of the book and follow along with our study of this material. Here's a link to the book: https://www.amazon.com/Theological-Ethics-Politics-Helmut-Thielicke/dp/0802817920 Please, please support your brick and mortar used book dealers as well. Professor Thielicke died before we were able to invite him in person as a guest on the podcast. Thanks to Fortress Press, the book is still in print and would be a valuable addition, indeed, to your personal library. Please support the work of Fortress Press and buy the book, and check out the other selections that they carry, as well.

Adam kicks things off by sharing his excitement for the upcoming Rolex Historics at Monterey's Laguna Seca before chatting about his plans to spend time aboard Rick Caruso's massive superyacht. He then reacts to Stephen A. Smith's explanation of why Pete Buttigieg is polling at 0% among black voters despite leading the 2028 Democratic primary race overall, and weighs in on Denver's bid to host the Gay Games. Then, Adam and Jason “Mayhem” Miller dive into trending headlines, from Emma Raducanu wanting a crying baby removed during a tense 23-minute game, to Jannik Sinner's Wimbledon serve being interrupted by a rogue champagne cork, to Los Angeles officials cracking down on dangerous street takeover meet-ups with tougher penalties and possible jail time.Then, renowned attorney and author Alan Dershowitz calls in! Adam opens by asking about the importance of political balance in American governance before shifting focus to the growing challenges of living in California. Alan connects the homelessness crisis in major cities to policy decisions dating back to Ronald Reagan, while Adam voices concern over the increasing trend of corporations and publications blacklisting people for their political views. They also touch on the controversies surrounding Jeffrey Epstein—including Alan's own legal entanglements, Trump's alleged involvement, and the mystery of Epstein's wealth—before Alan shares his candid thoughts on the Democratic Party and the Obamas.Lastly, Adam recaps his recent fire vlog where he interviews Rick Caruso about how he successfully protected his properties during the Southern California wildfires. Adam and Jason Mayhem Miller discuss the value of trade work, with Adam arguing that college isn't always the best—or only—path to a successful career. They also point out Caltrans work trucks they always see on the freeway and imagine the nightmare of crashing into one. Finally, Adam vents his frustration over a Los Angeles tunnel being tagged with graffiti less than a day after it was repainted, using it as a jumping-off point to rant about modern parenting and the need to teach kids common sense.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH ALAN DERSHOWITZ:BOOK: The Preventive State: Challenge of Preventing Serious Harms While Preserving Essential LibertiesTWITTER: @AlanDershFOR MORE WITH JASON “MAYHEM” MILLER: INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @mayhemmillerWEBSITE: www.mayhemnow.com Thank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlineHomes.comoreillyauto.com/ADAMOpenPhone.com/adamPluto.tvThriveMarket.com/ACSLIVE SHOWS: August 29 - Provo, UTAugust 31 - Torrance, CASeptember 6 - Charlotte, NCSeptember 12-13 - El Paso, TX (4 Shows)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
