In this week's episode of the Missouri Woods and Water Podcast, Andy discusses the diverse outdoor opportunities in Missouri with guests Austin Bailey and Tyler Keatts. They explore the challenges and processes involved in financing for beginning farmers and recreational land buyers, emphasizing the importance of education and cash flow management. The conversation also highlights the various programs offered by Farm Credit Services to support young and beginning farmers in achieving their agricultural dreams.Takeaways The diversity of outdoor activities in Missouri is a significant draw for residents. Beginning farmers can utilize specific loan programs to ease their entry into agriculture. Farm Credit Services offers educational opportunities to help young farmers understand financial management. Cash flow management is crucial for sustaining farming operations and making loan payments. Recreational land purchases require different financing considerations compared to agricultural land. Down payment challenges are a common hurdle for new farmers, but programs exist to assist. Engaging with local loan officers early can help aspiring farmers plan for future purchases. The importance of having a business plan for new farming operations cannot be overstated. Networking within the agricultural community can provide valuable resources and support. Farm Credit Services adapts its programs to meet the evolving needs of its borrowers.   Check out the MWW Website for shows, partner discounts, and more!!!

In this episode, Jim brings on Tom Dunkel, founder of Eagle Capital Investments, co-founder of U.S. Mortgage Resolution (11k+ loans transacted), real-estate investor, and author of The Wealth Builders Playbook. Tom left the “corporate penitentiary,” got bloodied in '08, then built durable wealth across distressed mortgage debt, self-storage, STRs, and a fund-of-funds platform.  They break down why “now” is always the right time if your horizon is long, how to own the paper when bricks are a pain, and how to evaluate deals with his SAFE method so you compound without blowing up. What You'll Learn Why headlines aren't a strategy: time horizon and cashflow beat “perfect timing” Distressed mortgage debt 101: how banks offload non-accrual loans—and how pros work them out The SAFE due-diligence method (Sponsor, Asset, Financials, Exit) you can apply to any alt deal Active vs passive: “who, not how” for busy owners who want diversification without a second job How tax advantages (depreciation, cost seg) and steady cashflow protect high earners Action Steps 1. Map Your Horizon & Cashflow Decide your hold period (5–10+ years) and set a monthly cashflow target that makes you work-optional. 2. Run SAFE on Your Next Deal Vet the Sponsor first, then Asset, Financials, and Exit. If any letter fails, pass and keep your powder dry. 3. Choose Your Lane Active: commit to learning, mistakes, and reps. Passive: piggyback a proven operator's network (fund-of-funds, co-GP) to diversify now.

professorjrod@gmail.comWhat if your “all-in-one” router is doing too much—and your Wi‑Fi “speed” isn't the real bottleneck? We pull back the rack door and trace the digital bloodstream from SOHO setups to enterprise backbones, translating jargon into choices you can actually make. Starting with LANs, WANs, WLANs, and SANs, we map how scope changes design, cost, and risk, then contrast the convenience of a home gateway with the clarity of dedicated roles—routers, switches, firewalls, and load balancers—working like a well-tuned orchestra.We get tactile with the gear: NICs and their 48‑bit MAC addresses, patch panels that keep closets sane, and switches that forward with CAM tables instead of shouting like hubs. You'll hear where managed switches earn their IP address (management only), why VLANs and QoS matter, and how Power over Ethernet (802.3af/at/bt) cuts clutter while powering VoIP phones, APs, and cameras with fewer failure points. From copper categories (Cat6/6A) and clean terminations to testers, toners, and taps, we highlight the unglamorous steps that prevent the worst outages.Then we cut the cord. We chart Wi‑Fi's arc—802.11a/b/g to n, ac, and 6/6E—clarifying bands, channels, MIMO, and OFDMA so your network stops fighting itself. We talk survey tools, interference traps, and when to steer clients to the right lanes. Fiber gets its due as the distance champion—single‑mode for long haul, multi‑mode for shorter runs—with connector gotchas that can burn hours. And because connectivity is more than Wi‑Fi, we touch Bluetooth peripherals, RFID access, NFC payments, and long‑range links that fill gaps where cables can't go.To anchor the learning, we run quick cert‑style questions—switches and MACs, routers and IPs, PoE's true advantage, and Wi‑Fi 5's 5 GHz focus—so you can test yourself in real time. Whether you're building a home lab, prepping for CompTIA, or planning an upgrade at work, you'll leave with practical mental models and checklists you can use today. If this helped you think a layer deeper, follow, share with a friend who's studying, and drop a review with your biggest networking win or question—what should we unpack next?Support the showIf you want to help me with my research please e-mail me.Professorjrod@gmail.comIf you want to join my question/answer zoom class e-mail me at Professorjrod@gmail.comArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton sits down with two leaders shaping the future of reverse logistics from the floor to the classroom: Troy Campbell, Director of Reverse Logistics Centers at The Home Depot, and Dr. Glenn Richey, Jr., Harbert Eminent Scholar in Supply Chain Management at Auburn University.Troy opens the doors to Home Depot's four Reverse Logistics Centers: Phoenix, Pittston (PA), McDonough (GA), and Indianapolis, showing why a people-first culture remains the operating system for returns at scale. He gets real about “automation when the box isn't a box,” how rethinking inbound flows through 3PLs reduces touches and transportation cost, and why simple vendor conversations (like consolidating daily pallets into a single weekly load) can unlock outsized impact. His north star: make associates' days easier, and the entire reverse network improves.Glenn zooms out to the macro shifts: the move from minimizing returns to maximizing returns within a circular economy, generative AI for scenario planning and real-time decision support, and reverse logistics as the operational backbone of sustainability. He maps the skills the next workforce will need, calls for clearer industry coding to separate reverse data from forward logistics, and outlines how universities can build dedicated reverse tracks. Together, Troy and Glenn offer a practical, research-backed playbook for turning returns into speed, value, and advantage without losing the human element that makes it work.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(01:17) Interview with Troy Campbell from Home Depot(04:20) Challenges and innovations in reverse logistics(08:49) Networking opportunities and industry insights(17:20) Interview with Glenn Richey from Auburn University(19:30) About Auburn's supply chain management program(20:52) Maximizing returns in a circular economy(23:29) Role of generative AI within supply chain operations(28:34) Reverse logistics and sustainability practices explained(32:26) The next generation of logistics skills(34:55) Engaging students in reverse logistics educationResources:Connect with Troy Campbell: https://www.linkedin.com/in/troy-campbell-6321a31/ Connect with Dr. Glenn Richey: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennrichey/ Learn more about The Home Depot: https://www.homedepot.com/ Learn more about The Harbert College of Business at Auburn University: https://harbert.auburn.edu/index.html Learn more about the Reverse Logistics Association: https://rla.org/ Connect with Scott Luton: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottwindonluton/Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.com Watch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here:
