Tell me if this makes sense… We live in a world today characterized by a fetishized pornographic addiction to rape. If it were not so, Law & Order: SVU wouldn’t have made it past a single season – let alone, into SYNdication for nearly 30 years…! I loathe Adorno and the CULTural Marxists who SYNthesized (read: weaponized) Marx and Freud to the general detriment of mankind, beginning with the ‘West’. But, he raised some legit points, as often the baddies do. It’s their SOLUTIONS we all need be wary of. For nigh on 100 years, we’ve basked in the jaundiced glow of the Frankfurt School, as legions of university students continue having their minds and spirits poisoned in the name of ‘Progress’. See also the ancient Roman Collegium, a concept dating back to (at least) the days of Plato – who, incidentally, literally wrote the book on The Republic. I digress… In Adorno’s “Fetish-character” essay, he states, a fetish is a substitute object of desire.[1] I would submit that in the latent undercurrent of this Nietzschean ‘power-evolving universe’ of today’s America; men and women, by and large, secretly harbor a craven desire for rape. It sounds crazy! Until one considers the popularity of Law & Order: SVU for the last 27 years. America is Kung-Fu LARPing, with each new iteration of the ‘fetish substitute object of desire’ further blurring the lines between fantasy and reality (schizoaffective disorder) as we creep ever closer to the Chaos Magick of bringing these secret desires to life. But, beware; LARPing has consequences.[2] The Epstein Saga has been publicly ongoing for 2+ decades. More than a thousand witnesses have come forward – including dozens who’ve accused Trump (E. Jean Carroll) – and yet, only Epstein and Maxwell have been ‘brought to justice’. Speaking of ‘justice’, Thomas Massie probably said it best:[3] Congress created the Department of Justice, Congress funds the Department of Justice, and Congress is responsible for the oversight of the Department of Justice. When will we see justice? I’ll tell you what I’ve not seen. I’ve not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein Files – over 3 million documents describing horrible things, describing unspeakable things, much of it redacted. Over two dozen people have resigned; CEOS, members of government, worldwide. But, I haven’t seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States, from this Department of Justice. Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who has since been stripped of his royalty, his royal titles, due to his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested. Peter Mandelson, who previously served as UK’s Ambassador to the United States, resigned in disgrace from United Kingdom’s House of Lords and the Labor Party, and he’s been arrested. Former Prime Minister of Norway Thorbjorn Jagland has been charged. But, we don’t see any charges, arrests, or investigations in the United States. What do we see? We see our FBI Director celebrating in the locker room at the Olympics overseas. It’s fine to be proud of this country. But, we should be proud of this country because we have a system of justice that works. And yet we do not. … We need justice. We want the Department of Justice to get to work, and that’s what they need to do – now. The Trump (45/47) DOJ is unwilling to rat itself out – and so are the other 77+ million co-conspirators… And then there’s the 77 million co-conspirators who voted for Epstein’s best friend Trump as many as three times, knowing he’d been accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, and even after he was found liable for sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll. For 77 million men and women it was not a dealbreaker! He rapes, but he saves. He saves more than he rapes … but he probably does rape.[4] Considering the aforementioned, what would be crazy is not acknowledging America’s fetishized pornographic addiction to rape – which is precisely what we’re doing. We are gaslighting ourselves at this point, as we turn a blind eye to our own culpability. After all – on the eve of America’s 250th Anniversary of Independence – wasn’t this always to be a government of, by, and for The People…? 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; …21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, …24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: …26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. — Romans 1:18, 21–22, 24, 26–32 KJV 4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: [and] again I say, Rejoice.5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord [is] at hand.6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things. — Philippians 4:4–8 KJV #Links Clips [1:58] Etymology (the origins of words) was taken out of schools in the early 1900’s for a reason.

The actor wore what she described as a “prosthetic [redacted]” in her recent movie The Testament of Ann Lee, as she revealed in a Feb. 25 interview with BBC’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show. “This movie, it needed to be graphic, so, like, I had a prosthetic [redacted],” she said in a clip posted to Instagram, which understandably perplexed Mills himself. When pressed for more details, she surprisingly had a rave review about the experience. “It was cool. It was exciting.” Seyfried plays the real-life Ann Lee, a Christian woman in 18th-century Great Britain who viewed herself as a representative of God and eventually founded a religious sect called Shakers, with the film capturing her group’s move across the pond to New York during the Colonial era. Son of megachurch pastor sentenced after horrific materials found at home ‘among worst investigators have seen’ An Indiana megachurch once known for preaching purity and sexual morality has found itself at the center of a scandal that has shaken a congregation, rattled political allies, and ended with a six-year prison sentence. Jonathan Peternel, 24, of Pendleton, was sentenced Friday after pleading guilty in January to one Level 4 felony count of child exploitation and three felony counts of possession of child sexual abuse material. The case drew intense public scrutiny not only because of the disturbing evidence uncovered by investigators, but because his father, Nathan Peternel, remains listed as lead pastor at Life Church and is a longtime mentor and close associate of Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith. Why Viewers Say You Should Watch ‘Nymphomaniac’ Alone Due to Its Graphic Scenes Both volumes of Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac are streaming on Netflix in the U.S., and its return to an easy, familiar platform has revived a warning that has followed the film since 2013: ‘Watch this one by yourself.‘ … So why does this movie come with a warning like that? The movie’s name actually answers that on its own. The term nymphomania is used to classify someone who has an uncontrollable compulsion toward sex, and that is exactly what the film follows across 2 volumes and 8 chapters. It opens with a woman named Joe, found beaten in an alley. A man named Seligman brings her home, and she begins telling him the story of her life from her earliest sexual memories through decades of escalating need. Von Trier was telling the story of a woman whose entire life is shaped by a compulsion she cannot control. … The discomfort the audience feels isn’t incidental. It’s the mechanism. Von Trier built the film so that watching it puts you closer to Joe’s experience than any non-explicit version ever could. The surface reading is addiction… What Joe is actually chasing is not sex but connection. Every encounter she describes to Seligman moves her further from other people rather than closer to them. Sex becomes the thing she reaches for because the thing she actually needs keeps slipping out of range. That distance between the act and the need behind it is where von Trier plants the real story. The compulsion is real, but the loneliness underneath it is what he keeps circling back to. He called this technique “Digressionism,” a term he coined to describe a storytelling style that deliberately wanders away from its own plot. He cited Marcel Proust as an influence. Nymphomaniac is the final film in what von Trier and critics call the Depression Trilogy. Following Antichrist in 2009 and Melancholia in 2011. After years infiltrating child exploitation rings, expert reveals an even DARKER American underworld | Blaze Media Demons in the Headlines EXPOSED: The War for Power and Souls in D.C. | Strange Encounters | Ep 29 – YouTube [31:30–33:26] Back to the politics piece; everybody within politics – even if they disagree with exploitation or whatever – they show partiality. And, I believe it’s, is it second Peter? … It says, ‘where partiality exists, exists every form of deceit and evil’. We can look it up … but I think that’s it. But, where partiality exists, exists all forms of evil. ***[Did he mean this passage?]For where envying and strife [is], there [is] confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. – James 3:16–17 KJV*** And, what is happening in our political world that I’ve that I’ve seen now is; you have career politicians – even if they claim to be Christians – they sell access. And, it might be access to conservative organizations. But, they sell access – and they’re partial to donors. … they’re unbelievably partial. And, they’re partial to their ‘club’, as opposed to the people they’re elected to represent. And, you have a bureaucracy that’s in place, and you have these elitists that are in place, that think that they can buy – because they have been able to buy your position – buy you, buy access to you, or buy access to somebody else, and ‘own’ – in this case, a US Senator, what I’m running for. But, it’s across the board for everything; Congressmen, even the President … Everything’s for sale. And, it’s ‘access’ that they’re selling, right? And, that’s the thing that stood out to me the most; partiality. More proof / Trump-Epstein Saga DOJ’s Epstein Files Screwups Get Worse With Unredacted Nudes and Images of Kids The Justice Department is under fire after newly released Jeffrey Epstein case materials reportedly included unredacted nude images and photos involving minors. Analysis by CNN uncovered nearly 100 explicit pictures of two naked young women on a beach, the news outlet reported. The materials also included photos showing a young girl kissing Epstein on the cheek. At least one unredacted image depicted Epstein alongside a nude female, and additional selfie-style nude photos of at least two other unidentified females were also published, with their ages unclear, according to CNN. Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which Congress passed and President Trump signed in late November, the DOJ is obligated to omit sexually explicit imagery and anything that might identify victims. The images have now been redacted.

Why is he not being investigated? And, Leslie Wexner; why did the FBI list him as a co-conspirator in their own documents in a child sex trafficking case, and then tell him, according to him, that they had no questions for him? Why is that? Well, the Epstein Files Transparency Act requires the DOJ and the FBI to disclose to us their internal memos and emails about how they made those decisions, whether to prosecute or not prosecute. Yet, they have not delivered those memos. And, we still don’t have the memos and documents and emails from 2008, to explain why Jeffrey Epstein was given such a light sentence in what would have been an open and shut case of child sex trafficking, which allowed him to go back and recommit these terrible crimes, create hundreds of more victims, and ensnare so many other people in his conspiracy. Where are those documents that describe those decisions? We need justice. We want the Department of Justice to get to work, and that’s what they need to do – now!

This interview is with Travis Culley, a Linfield grad and local wine industry veteran. In this interview, Travis talks about attending Linfield in the 90s, beginning to work at Nick's Italian Cafe the week before he started his freshman year, and all his adventures since then.Travis talks about being introduced to wine through Riesling while his dad was in the Air Force and his family lived in Germany. They later moved to Weston, OR near Pendleton, and Travis came to Linfield in 1990. The week before classes started, his roommate took him to Nick's Italian Cafe to help clean up the kitchen. He ended up working there for the next 11 years.Travis discusses his involvement with IPNC and how he ended up in the background of a very famous picture outside of Nick's. During a dinner with dozens of influential winemakers sometime in the late 90s, everyone gathered outside the restaurant to take a picture, and Travis stood on a chair on the other side of the window to be included.Later in the interview, Travis talks about going wine tasting at various local wineries on Thanksgiving and Memorial Day weekends to visit places that sold wine to Nick's. It was through these tastings that he started working holiday weekends at Archery Summit and WillaKenzie, and for the last 27 years at Belle Pente Winery.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Linfield University's Nicholson Library on January 26, 2026.

Most of us were taught some version of the same story: Good women are modest. Quiet. Selfless. Desire is dangerous. Pleasure is suspicious. But that story is not holy. It is a tool of control. In this conversation, I sit down with my dear friend Dr. Kimberly Rose Pendleton - intimacy scholar, coach, and former evangelical insider - to talk about how purity culture, patriarchy, and religion have shaped our bodies, our bedrooms, our marriages, and our sense of worth as women. We speak about the heartbreak of watching purity culture move from private dogma into national policy...while raising daughters in the midst of it. And we name something I see every day in my work: women who are exhausted from doing it all, flirting with "trad wife" fantasies, simply because they're desperate for one place to finally surrender. Inside this episode, we explore: How purity culture quietly trains women to disconnect from their bodies, their desire, and their pleasure. Why so many powerful women secretly fantasize about being dominated - and what's really underneath those fantasies. The rise of "trad wife" culture and the hidden longing for safety and rest that makes it so seductive. How to hold both: being a woman in her full power and having a place to soften, lean back, and be cherished. What happens in our marriages when we stop dimming, start telling the truth, and allow our identities to expand. Why your pleasure is not frivolous - it is a form of spiritual and political rebellion that liberates everyone, including the men you love. This conversation is for the woman who feels a million miles away from her own body...the woman who is quietly wondering, "Is it selfish to want more?" It is not selfish. It is your birthright. If this episode stirs something within you, share it with another woman who is ready to step out of martyrdom and into her own aliveness. And if you are ready to remember who you've always been - to reclaim your desire, your voice, and your pleasure - join me at MAGNETIC in Phoenix, December 5-6. The revolution begins within.

Wealthy families are discovering Tennessee's legal and tax ecosystem as a key component for their long term wealth strategy. I spoke with ANDREA CHOMAKOS from Pendleton Square Trust on Tennessee around these advantages that the Tennessee Wealth Ecosystem provides in the context of other states' legal systems and economies. We cover directed trusts and Tennessee situs, and even a tip like the Community Property Trust, which is interesting in both prenuptial tax planning and estate planning contexts. https://youtu.be/CiR8eoAG-iI "The Tennessee Wealth Ecosystem" Transcript Frazer Rice (00:00.814)Welcome aboard, Andrea. Andrea Chomakos (00:03.128)Thanks, Frazer, happy to be here. Frazer Rice (00:04.696)Well, glad to have you on. Always happy to talk to friends of mine at Pendleton, talk about Tennessee and trust administration generally. Our listeners are probably pretty well versed as far as the idea of trusts, but I don't think it hurts to go and talk a little bit about what the trustee function normally entails as we talk about what is interesting about Tennessee and other jurisdictional issues. Andrea Chomakos (00:29.358)Absolutely. So Frazer, it's great to be here and share some conversation with you and your audience. While I have been in the professional fiduciary role for several years, for several decades before that, I was a practicing attorney. So I would often have conversations with my clients and drafting their documents and asking them decisions about who to appoint as a trustee. One of the very first conversations we would have is what does it mean to be a trustee? As I have now come over to the other side, broadly stating that the trustee has the responsibility to administer the trust for the sole benefit of the named trust beneficiaries in accordance with the trust terms. That seems like a lot of really big words that don't make a lot of sense to the average person. I get it. When I was practicing, a lot of my clients, their reaction would be, okay, so you're just telling me that this person is the person who makes the decisions about distributions and that's great. I can go, you know, no big deal. And the reality is, yeah, the reality is it is a big deal. Because it's more than just making distribution decisions or making them in a vacuum. You have to look at the broader picture. Frazer Rice (01:41.228)It's more than that though. Andrea Chomakos (01:55.598)But it also entails managing the trust assets and investments. It means making those important distribution decisions and understanding the impacts those are going to have not just in the short term but the long term. Filing and paying tax returns for the trust. Communicating with trust beneficiaries, providing reports and accounts. And even all of that sometimes seems like not that big of a laundry list but Let me give like an example that I ran into. Everybody loves a good example. So when I say a trustee is responsible for investing and managing all of the assets of the trust, that also means the protection and preservation of those assets. And it's incredibly common to see a trust hold some real estate, oftentimes a residence that a trustee or a beneficiary lives in. Frazer Rice (02:24.58)That'd be great. Andrea Chomakos (02:51.094)And you may say, OK, well, no big deal. Like if something happens, we'll just get it fixed. Well, it's more than that, right? You need to really understand what that means and the risks you're taking and the potential liability you're taking if you don't manage those issues in a way maybe different than you would if it was just your own house. So I was at a prior institution and that institution was serving as co-trustee with a beneficiary who resided in some trust-owned property. And lo and behold, you know, got a call from that beneficiary saying, hey, there was a leak with one of the pipes in the house. So I just went out and got some duct tape and put that around the pipe to stave off the leak, but now it's gotten really bad. And you're just sort of like, well, wait a minute. Like that's. Frazer Rice (03:34.276)Hmm. Andrea Chomakos (03:47.573)As a trustee, that's not an appropriate response to fixing a leak, it's not a roll of duct tape. So it's things like that that trustees are responsible for. Frazer Rice (04:00.004)One of the things too that's happened in modern legislation is that those three functions you talked about, the investment, the distribution, and the administration have been in many states you're able to, we like to call it bifurcate them, so that you can put an expert maybe in the investment role, maybe a family member with a corporate trustee in the distribution role, and then a corporate trustee in the administration role who, you know, they're used to doing the paperwork and the tax filings and the eye dotting and T-crossing. And in your, I guess in your experiences, we've gone through that. How have trust companies evolved to take into account this new flexibility? Andrea Chomakos (04:42.254)Absolutely, think you hit the right word. I always say the same thing, Frazier. It's a bifurcation of those duties and responsibilities. And so there are more trust companies who are embracing what we call the Directed Trust Model, where the corporate trustee is handling the administrative functions. So the reporting, the trust beneficiary communications, filing the tax returns, all of those very important functions, but ones that oftentimes are overlooked, their importance is overlooked. And other people are given the role of either distribution advisor, and sometimes the corporate trustees in these roles will make distribution decisions. But certainly the investment function is one. And as you see arise in individuals, families, using private equity for investments, other alternative investments, you see them using RIAs, multifamily offices, to manage their investments that, and those entities don't have that trustee function. There are more corporate trustees who are filling that role. And I think that we're only going to see that market increase and that demand increase. Frazer Rice (06:11.196)I don't think I could agree more with that statement. I think the idea of people having all of those functions under one umbrella really ignores just the way wealth is being managed these days, whether it's sort of peculiar assets or even, you know, regular run of the mill stocks and bonds, people have their advisors and they don't want to necessarily give that up to take advantage of trust situs and professional trustee services. Andrea Chomakos (06:21.998)Listen. Frazer Rice (06:36.524)As I talk to people around this topic, the culture of a good trustee, and especially sort of a good corporate or a good administrative trustee, there are a lot of things that go into that. In your experience, what is it that makes a good sort of corporate or administrative trustee for particular family? Andrea Chomakos (07:01.422)There's I mean, that's a great question. And it should be top of mind for all clients. Right. I think there's a couple of things. One is the institutional professionalism that a corporate trustee, independent corporate trustee provides, as well as the skill, the background and then the lack of conflict of interest. So when you think about an administrative trustee that's not managing the investments, we have no dog in that fight as they say about what's going on with the investments, how they're being managed, how they're being allocated. We, Pendleton Square and others are here to serve the beneficiaries, to facilitate communication, to help beneficiary wealth education, to continue the continuum of family values and conversations, as well as be some be a person who can sit there alongside them and educate them about the trust, about the wealth, about the impact the distributions from the trust are having on their own estate, on their own lifestyle, and really honing in on the things that they're really good at. And I think predominantly it is that being free of conflict. We don't have any other interest in the trust. Frazer Rice (08:28.252)I think the concept of staying in your lane is important. I think in the old world where the big trust companies did everything and they would allocate resources to that because doing everything required good integration and so on, it made a lot of sense. But nowadays, as we talked about the bifurcation just now, the provision of the administrative trustee functions and the distribution committees, et cetera, that feels more like an accommodation. Andrea Chomakos (08:30.913)I'm sorry. Frazer Rice (08:56.696)than a sort of focus for them. And so these trust companies that have developed, the new ones that are less worried about the investment function, that that focus is now a strength in the sense that people hire experts in that field in order to get what they need from an estate planning perspective or a site of choice, et cetera, but then to really effectuate that culture we just talked about. Andrea Chomakos (09:26.956)Yeah, I mean, think there's a couple of nuances there that you touch on that always resonate with me. And so one is. Trust business, it's a business, we all have to admit that it's a business, but is it relational or is it transactional? And at its core it's really relational. You're working alongside a family for hopefully multiple generations and as an institution you can carry forward that historic bank of knowledge in the grantor's intent, the family values as you're administering the trust. But in many larger institutions, because of just structural considerations and constraints, sometimes you have a lot of turnover in personnel. You have some loss of historic knowledge and information. And you have a compression of what it takes. not just the skills,

What if your desire isn't dangerous, but divine?In this deeply transformative episode, Emily sits down with Dr. Kimberly Rose Pendleton, an intimacy coach, scholar, and founder of UNCOVER, to explore what it means to heal from purity culture and reclaim your body, your voice, and your power. Together, they unravel centuries of conditioning that taught women to equate goodness with obedience and holiness with self-denial, and invite listeners into a radical reframe: that pleasure is sacred, not selfish.Kimberly shares her personal story of deconstructing evangelical beliefs, walking away from a marriage that no longer fit, and rediscovering her aliveness through the practice of pleasure. Rooted in her academic background at Yale and her years of coaching women around the world, she blends intellect and embodiment in a way that feels both revolutionary and deeply human. From the theology of Mary Magdalene to the lived reality of womanhood today, she illuminates how pleasure becomes a path back to the divine, and how reclaiming it is one of the most powerful ways women can heal from religious trauma, shame, and repression.Emily and Kimberly dive into the hidden history of Mary Magdalene, a wealthy, powerful spiritual leader erased and rewritten as a sinner by the early Church, and what her true story reveals about the fear of feminine wisdom. They explore how purity culture and patriarchy sought to silence women's voices, sexual expression, and intuition, and why remembering the Magdalene lineage is an act of both spiritual and societal revolution.Whether you grew up in the church or simply absorbed the cultural messaging that your worth depends on being “good,” this conversation is an invitation to return to yourself. To soften the shame, to listen to your body, and to remember that your joy, your sensuality, and your truth are not something to hide, they're the very portals to your power, purpose, and divine connection.In this episode, we explore:How purity culture continues to shape women's bodies, relationships, and sense of worth, even outside organized religionWhy pleasure is sacred, not selfish, and how reconnecting with it helps women return to their powerThe connection between pleasure, spirituality, and embodiment, and why they were never meant to be separateThe hidden truth about Mary Magdalene, her role as a wealthy priestess, spiritual leader, and symbol of feminine wisdom erased by patriarchyWhat the Gospel of Mary reveals about women's direct access to the divine, and why her story was rewritten by the early ChurchHow patriarchy and purity culture weaponized holiness, shame, and obedience to control women's bodies and voicesPractical ways to begin reclaiming pleasure and power in everyday life, through beauty, embodiment, and self-trustThe ripple effect of women in their pleasure, how wholeness, joy, and desire create collective healing and transformationBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect & Work with Dr. Kimberly Rose Pendleton:Harlots & Heretics — a three-part journey through the hidden, holy history of women labeled “dangerous,” guiding you to reclaim your own sacred power.
Most flour today is milled for shelf life, not flavor or nutrition. Cairnspring Mills set out to flip that script. Co-founder & CEO Kevin Morse explains how the company created a premium craft flour category by contracting regeneratively grown, higher-margin grains directly from farmers and stone-milling to retain flavor and nutrients, winning over top chefs and bakeries nationwide. We cover the growth story ($5.1M → $6.4M → pacing $7.9M), why demand is pulling them to expand capacity, and the plan to build a dramatically larger mill in Pendleton, OR (with the Umatilla Tribe) as part of a future network of regional mills. Kevin breaks down how “regional at scale” works (quality, resilience, and local grain identity), the sales playbook (foodservice-led; DTC and retail ramp), and opportunities in co-branded “Milled by Cairnspring” products. If you care about better bread—and better agricultural economics—this is a blueprint for rebuilding a staple industry.Highlights include…Why industrial roller milling strips flavor & nutrition—and how stone milling restores both Direct farmer contracts, regenerative practices, and paying for milling/baking quality (not just protein) Growth: $5.1M (2023) → $6.4M (2024) → ~$7.9M (2025E) Capacity expansion: Pendleton, OR mill (with Umatilla Tribe) targeting ~110M lbs/yr Long-term vision: distributed network of regional mills (CapEx ≈ $40M per mill + granary) Go-to-market: foodservice first (~80%), plus DTC, retail, and co-brand opportunities Influencer flywheel: chef/baker adoption (e.g., Bianco, Tartine) → organic demand
Let's talk about pleasure. Yep, the thing women are taught to avoid, minimize, hide, or feel guilty about. And yet, as this week's guest Dr. Kimberly Rose Pendleton says, “Pleasure has never been more radical, especially for women.” In a world that feels like it's collapsing in real time (and let's be honest, it mostly is), pleasure isn't frivolous. It's the way back into your body, your intuition, and your aliveness. Together, we get into how pleasure reconnects you to yourself when the world has trained you to disconnect, why so many women feel shame around wanting anything, and how small “what would feel good right now?” choices can quietly lead you home. Dr. Kimberly Rose Pendleton, intimacy scholar, trauma-informed coach, and founder of UNCOVER, brings her blend of research, real life, and hard-won wisdom to this conversation. In this episode, you'll hear about: Kimberly shares the unexpected path that led her into intimacy work and how it shapes everything she teaches (5:30) Why knowing what you want starts with the tiniest daily choices (11:34) We talk about how vulnerability has challenged and transformed her relationships and career (20:21) Kimberly breaks down why pleasure feels so off-limits for women and how it can become a healing force (25:20) How grief shows up in intimacy work and why it matters (37:23) Simple ways to rediscover what actually brings you pleasure (42:22) Resources from this episode: Sign up for my free workshop happening on December 18th!

POV isn't just a grammar choice - it's the engine that controls intimacy, suspense, and what your reader knows when.In this craft-deep episode, we demystify point of view by breaking it into three practical dials (access, scope, and distance) then walk through the pros and cons of first person, third limited (close and deep), free indirect style, omniscient, objective, second person, epistolary, multiple-POV, and stream of consciousness.To make it real, we take a baseline scene (Edward at Inkerman hearing Pendleton's voice) and rewrite it in each POV, showing exactly what changes on the page and how those changes shape reader experience, for better and for worse.You'll learn how to pick the right lens for a scene, avoid head-hopping and tense drift, trim filter words for immediacy, and keep character voice aligned with era and education.Ideal for both first-time novelists and seasoned writers tuning their instrument!

“The first time I entered here I was 18 years old…I'd always heard about the Pendleton Roundup, it's just iconic. I was driving in thinking, I've made it, you know, I've made it” “You can name any sport, basketball, football, whatever. [Rodeo] just isn't that way. These events started and evolved from ranching. They've molded it into a sport, and that's just outta cowboy try. I have a ranch, Pat has a ranch, and for the people that watch ‘Yellowstone', that's a lot like his place.” Welcome back to Pendleton, Oregon, home of the world-famous Roundup that we covered in a previous episode.

And Pat Nogle, a bulldogging champion with a collection of medals and records that stand to this day. The conversation was full of bawdy tales and laughter, but also deep introspection on what western culture means to actual ranchers like them, and also to the 50,000 fans that come to Pendleton every September.

We thought we knew the Oregon Trail… Turns out, we only knew half the story. “The settling of the West,” says Bobbie Conner, “was the unsettling of the West for our people.” In this episode of The Hidden Trails of Oregon, we're exploring the past, present and future of the Cayuse, Umatilla, and Walla Walla tribes, whose ancestral homelands stretch across Eastern Oregon. In 1993, the 150th anniversary of the Oregon Trail, tribal leadership attempted to build a center to tell the story of the trail from a Native American perspective. But they were denied funding. So on August 12th, 1993, a wagon train celebrating the anniversary was interrupted at the reservation border by Natives on horseback. One rider was Antone Minthorn, chairman of his tribal council. He spoke in protest of the poverty and unemployment affecting his people. But also of his vision of a place for learning and research; for a different perspective on manifest destiny. It worked. Funding was secured and soon the Tamástslikt Cultural Institute opened its doors. We're taking an immersive, sound-rich journey through this world-class museum. You'll hear horses rumbling across the grassy plateau, storytellers in winter lodges, ringing bells and worshipers in song and prayer. We'll sit down with Bobbie Conner, director of the Institute, to talk about the achievements, aspirations and concerns of her community. And we'll explore the meaning of a phrase you'll find emblazoned on the walls of the final exhibit: Cháwna mun na'ámta–We will never fade.

Intro - Vince Welcome back to another episode of Let's Go Hunt - Incognito Mode! - Now with 100% more chances of dying for Israel: Mike Gonçalves, Dave Packard, who has a five day weekend Sam Alexander, who'd die for a pack of Marlboros and a kind word And, letting the intrusive thoughts win at the Cabela's fish tank, I'm Vince H Around the Campfire - Tonight we are talking about Mike's man bun and giggle switches Five Star Alterations Questions: Is there any truth to the rumors that you're still pillaging cloaks from the set of the Lord of the Rings? What got you started making wool ponchos? Did you have a background in textiles or gear design before this? Why wool? What makes it stand out compared to modern synthetic materials? Where do you source your wool from? What kind of wool are you using—Merino, Pendleton-style, recycled military surplus? Do you treat the ponchos for water resistance? Have you heard stories from customers using them on hunts? How heavy are they, and how do they pack down? Do you offer different sizes or cuts for movement while carrying a rifle or bow? Are there any features built in—like pockets, slits for arms, or snaps? Do you make or plan to make ponchos with blaze orange or reversible designs? What's your take on balancing traditional gear with modern hunting tech? Are there any new designs or products you're working on? If someone's never used wool in the field before, what would you tell them? Where can people find your work or order a poncho? Eventual Ad Slot Personal Gear Chat and Updates: Mike Range report with the hunting glock Dave Fuck plumbing, seriously Scouting/camping trip Wife bought me some pretty neat stuff for daddy day Sam I have beer.
