Ready for an epic growth story? Meet Mack Hueber, president of Ayrloom, the hemp THC and cannabis company.In less than three years, Ayrloom has gone from a bold idea on a fifth-generation apple orchard to the #1 cannabis beverage brand in New York State — moving 250,000 cases annually and hitting a $50 million wholesale sales run rate.In this episode, Mack takes us inside that meteoric rise — and the risks, pivots, and strategic bets that made it possible.You'll hear:The leap from Wall Street to weed — why Mack joined Beak & Skiff's leadership team and how Ayrloom was born out of a cider and spirits business.The early gamble that paid off — building one of the largest THC beverage bottling facilities on the East Coast before securing a license.Mastering three regulatory worlds — the operational, compliance, and margin realities of alcohol, hemp THC, and regulated cannabis in dispensary channels.Scaling fast without losing control — how Ayrloom built a $5M/month sales run rate and became a trusted retail partner from Day One.Distribution and flavor strategy — why Ayrloom plays in both dispensaries and hemp D9 channels, and the innovation behind their Honeycrisp THC cider.The next wave in cannabis drinks — from effect-based positioning to the role of minor cannabinoids.If you're a drinks entrepreneur — whether alcohol, non-alc, hemp, or cannabis — this conversation is packed with insights on scaling in a capital-intensive category, optimizing distributor relationships, and staying nimble when the rules can change literally overnight.Last Call:We discuss 3 things every drinks brand should know right now (from the recent Numerator Beverage Behaviors report):1️⃣ NA drinks are growing 2.5x faster than alcohol2️⃣ Walmart.com now beats Amazon for NA beverage delivery3️⃣ Functional and hydration categories are booming — think prebiotic soda, coconut water, enhancersIt's not just what's in the can — it's where, why, and how people buy it.

He is a former Canadian police officer and has been working in church ministry for several years. He was also a police chaplain in New York State for some time. Rick journeyed across North America and made a visit to my Kansas City studio part of his trip; at the time he held the record for furthest distance to visit me in person, but just a week after recording this, "Jake the International Security Specialist Guy" visited me from Thailand (Ep 117).

New York State is arguably the home to the most tyrannical vaccine regime in the world, bar none. Every year thousands of children are force vaccinated according to the CDC recommended schedule as a mandatory requirement for entering all public, private and parochial schools. Even worse? Religious and philosophical exemptions are banned in NY and doctors are terrified to write medical exemptions due to threats from the state health authorities. And the brave doctors who will write a medical exemption are nearly ALWAYS denied. Not by doctors … but by school administrators. But now, everything has changed in NY as the tides turn against medical tyranny with a landmark decision: “In a major win for medical freedom, a New York federal judge late Tuesday ruled in favor of a preliminary injunction allowing a teenage girl who had been denied a medical vaccine exemption and barred from school to return to classes in September, pending the final outcome of her lawsuit against the school district.” ~ Children’s Health Defense This is a narrow, yet powerful victory which now spares thousands of NY school children from forced vaccination. More importantly, it opens the door for religious and philosophical exemptions to be reinstated in the most tyrannical vaccine regime in the world. Today we talk to Sarah Doe and her attorney Sujata Gibson about their amazing victory and what that means for medical freedom in NYS!

When the war in Ukraine began back in February 2022, the remote-controlled unmanned aerial vehicle or drone as its commonly known, was peripheral to the conflict. But three years on, the drone in all its shapes and sizes has taken on a central role in this battle, in the air, on land and at sea, for surveillance, reconnaissance, combat and other purposes. Now drone technology is evolving even further into the area of autonomous weapons. But whilst the drone can offer greater strategic and operational flexibility and a possible reduction in the number of military casualties, there are concerns that the drone, particularly in Ukraine's case, has prolonged the war. Only last year the United Nations reported that 118 countries now had military drones, along with at least 65 non-state actors. And as an increasing number of countries have begun to manufacture and export their own array of military drones, many are concerned about how drone technology is presenting a big challenge in terms of defensive measures. So, on this week's Inquiry, we're asking ‘How are drones changing the landscape of modern warfare?

New York State's cell phone ban in schools is on the way. Plus, the NYPD says three people are dead after a driver struck two pedestrians and another car in Queens Tuesday morning. Also, experts say President Trump will likely face greater difficulty in New York if he wants to exert federal control. And finally, the union representing New York State Troopers says its officers should get time off after shoot-outs and other stressful calls.

One of NYC's most likely mayoral hopefuls has been finding success supporting some extremely left-leaning policies. On Today's Show:Zohran Mamdani, New York State assembly member (D-36, Queens) and the Democratic nominee for mayor, makes his pitch to voters as he runs for mayor of New York City.
Barbara was born in 1964 and although given up within the first week of life, she wasn't ultimately adopted until she was 16 months old. She was never told why or where she was that first 16 months. While growing up Barbara occasionally asked about her biological mother. Her adoptive mother told her that she would never be able to find her, as the records in New York State were sealed. Barbara accepted that as fact, and never sought to look further. She lived with her adopted family until she was 18 years old and then her adoptive parents abruptly moved 1000 miles away. She had always had trouble fitting in at home and struggled socially, but when her adoptive parents left, those issues magnified and she was left wondering more and more about her past. Until she married at 28 years old and contemplated having children did she really begin to question her identity. Working for a financial firm in a Human Resources Department, Barbara managed her company's blood drive. It was that day when she gave serious thought about her own bloodlines. She found the adoption agency and the representative shared a list of non-identifying information. And so began the long search for her biological mother. When she found her 2 years later, Barbara discovered that they lived only 20 blocks away from each other when she was growing up and only a town apart when she found her. That was the beginning of a long relationship they still have today. She has met her biological father, as well as extended family. Barbara considers herself blessed and has written a manuscript about the search, and her mother has edited the work. They both feel that they were meant to reunite after all those years apart, and live less than a mile apart today.

In this episode, part 2 of the “It's All Greek Retrospective” series, Master Gardener Jean Thomas talks about jargon and acronyms with the help of some examples from our own New York gardens. These previously aired short segments have been grouped together as they all focus on a common topic: helping to better understand gardening nomenclature. From the Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptrostroboides) to the vast Iris family, nicknames and descriptions abound. The Latin name of the Dawn Redwood is great and grand, but when translated, it turns out to be fancy words that repeat themselves. Iris fanciers discuss the German or the Russian or the Dutch or the Japanese types and rave about their standards and their falls. 'Standards' are the three upright and 'falls' are the three down-facing petals. Part of the fun is peeking into the mythology surrounding Iris. Did you know that the Harpies, famously terrible, were related to the famously beautiful goddess of the rainbow? The next two segments focus specifically about other perennials we know and love. Echinacea is named for a hedgehog (which has no population in North America where the Echinacea was “found”). Hemerocallis is Latin for “Beauty for a Day,” although we commonly call it the “Daylily.” Hostas also have identity issues, being often called Funkias in Europe. Peonies have a long history in China as well as some wild mythological rumors in Greece about Zeus and his shenanigans. And while the Greeks are being discussed, there is a wonderful story about the famous doctor Asclepias and how the milkweed got its formal name. The very last segment of this episode delves into the common Rudbeckia and Phlox, both of which have a habit of traveling because of their prolific seed production. Then the episode goes to the Dutch... language, that is. The Dutch nation has always been at the forefront of garden development and production. , And the Hudson Valley of New York State has a special connection going back four centuries. Food names, place names and historical characters call the Hudson Valley home, like the Roosevelts and Van Burens and even Sojourner Truth in her unique way. Listen, learn, and enjoy!

August 6, 2025- As we continue to unpack the ramifications of the Big Beautiful Bill adopted by Republicans in Washington D.C., we're turning our attention to what it means for community health centers that serve low-income New Yorkers in medical deserts. Our guest is Rose Duhan, president and CEO of the Community Healthcare Association of New York State.
Today, we're back talking about the electrification of New York State, but with a slightly different angle. We're talked about how New York State's push to go full electric will hurt your wallet in the way of increased school taxes to fund electric busses, but have you thought about just how much it'll cost you in the way of appliances. Imagine it's 2030, you just had a gas powered appliance die on you, and can't get it repaired, hence you have to go out and buy a new electric powered version of the appliance. Had you thought about that yet?
Join me for an insightful and timely conversation with historian Timothy Kneeland about his book Declaring Disaster: Buffalo's Blizzard of '77 and the Creation of FEMA (Syracuse University Press, 2021). This book masterfully bridges the gap between academic research and real-world policy implications. Hear from the author himself as he reflects on the historical roots of disaster policy, the political forces that shape emergency response, and the enduring implications for governance today. Timothy W. Kneeland is a Professor and Director of the Center for Public History at Nazareth University. He writes on American politics and disaster policy, American science, and psychiatry. ABOUT THE BOOK: On Friday, January 28, 1977, it began to snow in Buffalo. The second largest city in New York State, located directly in line with the Great Lakes' snowbelt, was no stranger to this kind of winter weather. With their city averaging ninety-four inches of snow per year, the citizens of Buffalo knew how to survive a snowstorm. But the blizzard that engulfed the city for the next four days was about to make history. Between the subzero wind chill and whiteout conditions, hundreds of people were trapped when the snow began to fall. Twenty- to thirty-foot-high snow drifts isolated residents in their offices and homes, and even in their cars on the highway. With a dependency on rubber-tire vehicles, which lost all traction in the heavily blanketed urban streets, they were cut off from food, fuel, and even electricity. This one unexpected snow disaster stranded tens of thousands of people, froze public utilities and transportation, and cost Buffalo hundreds of millions of dollars in economic losses and property damages. The destruction wrought by this snowstorm, like the destruction brought on by other natural disasters, was from a combination of weather-related hazards and the public policies meant to mitigate them. Buffalo's 1977 blizzard, the first snowstorm to be declared a disaster in US history, came after a century of automobility, suburbanization, and snow removal guidelines like the bare-pavement policy. Kneeland offers a compelling examination of whether the 1977 storm was an anomaly or the inevitable outcome of years of city planning. From the local to the state and federal levels, Kneeland discusses governmental response and disaster relief, showing how this regional event had national implications for environmental policy and how its effects have resounded through the complexities of disaster politics long after the snow fell.

It's a weird time to be an environmental scientist. The proposed cuts to federal science funding in the United States are profound, and if they come to pass, it's not clear what American science will look like on the other side. But for many researchers, science is much more than a career: it's a community, lifestyle, and sometimes even a family business. Outside/In producer Justine Paradis tagged along with researchers in the field to learn what it's like to be a scientist right now. We visit one of the oldest atmospheric monitoring stations in the country, and venture onto the Finger Lakes with an ad-hoc group of researchers struggling to understand an emerging threat to water quality: harmful algal blooms.This is a glimpse of the people behind the headlines, navigating questions both personal and professional, and trying to find ways to continue their work, even as much of their funding is simultaneously collapsing around them. Featuring Bob Howarth, Joshua Thienpont, Irena Creed, Nico Trick, Anita Dedić, and Tom Butler, with appearances from Roxanne Marino, Renee Santoro, and Garreth Smith.

In the early 2000s, some wondered if seeding the ocean with iron could be a climate solution. They hoped that the iron would trigger the growth of marine phytoplankton and sequester carbon in the ocean. But when Charlie Trick and his colleagues studied it, they learned it had unintended consequences: it triggered the growth of highly toxic algal blooms.A paper on the rise of ammonia, using data from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program and co-authored by Tom Butler.A letter condemning the proposed cuts to science in FY26, signed by more than 1200 members of the National Academy of Sciences.

Executive Vice President of The Business Council of New York State, Inc., Paul Zuber, calls into the show to talk about the difficulties New York businesses face, particularly regulations such as the All Electric Building Act, which increases costs for builders and consumers. This legislation mandates the use of electric appliances in new constructions and plans to phase out gas and oil services by 2029, which, according to Zuber, will exacerbate affordability issues.
