Want more access to local meat? We need your help! On this special time-sensitive episode of the Thriving Farmer Podcast, Michael is joined by Pete Kennedy of the Weston A. Price Foundation. Pete is sharing about the Prime Act which is an important piece of legislation that will empower states to decide their meat inspection protocols. The ultimate aim? Making local meat procurement simpler and cost-effective. Tune in today to hear how you can help small farmers to push this PRIME Act through with this year's Farm Bill. We're encouraging all of our US listeners to make three calls - one to your Representative and a call to each of your Senators. Mention your support for H.R. 2814 and Senate bill is S.907 respectively. In this episode, you'll hear… About Pete's background with Weston A Price Foundation 1:23 What the state of meat processing is like right now in the US 2:12 More about what the Prime Act is 10:38 How you can help make this Prime Act pass 12:45 Resources: Call today! The deadline to add this to the farm bill is soon and we need your voice to push for more co-sponsors to get this added to the 2023 Farm Bill. The U.S. food system needs reform, and while no solution is perfect, the Prime Act takes a significant step forward. Carve out a few minutes, connect with your elected officials, and champion the cause of affordable local meat. Tell Congressmen to Cosponsor the PRIME Act Find your Representative and urge them to co-sponsor the bill! The bill number is H.R. 2814. Find your Senator and press for their support.

If you've been paying attention to the goings on in the influencer marketing world, you know by now that there was a major acquisition announced recently. Sprout Social, long known as one of the top social media management solutions in the space, acquired Tagger Media. Its main product, Tagger, is one of the leading influencer marketing software solutions on the market. It was once a regular sponsor of this program as well. Tagger was actually also responsible for bringing me to the Influencer Marketing Show a couple of years ago. Pete Kennedy, its CEO and I became friends with a shared vision and passion for the space. We had him on the show back in March of 2022. You can find that episode in our show notes at jasonfalls.com. I loved what Tagger's software could do. I used it exclusively for a couple of years. I still do for certain strategy and research projects, though CIPIO.ai and other tools are a part of my strategy arsenal as well. When the announcement came down that Tagger had been acquired, it was a personal celebration of sorts. My friends there reached the end game of the original goal of a startup business. It was sold for a reported $140 million in cash. So I have a couple of contacts who are a considerable amount wealthier now. That's always a good thing to celebrate. But the news and the move also leave a lot of questions. So I reached out to Pete Kennedy and asked him to come answer them. We caught up last week and ironed out the what-ifs and what-nows of the big move, dug into the issues of the day in the influencer space, and I got Pete's take on how AI factors into the influence space moving forward. We'll dig into the news of the day and get one smart man's perspective on other things, too. Pete Kennedy is coming up on Winfluence. This episode of Winfluence is presented by CIPIO.ai. We are helping brands transform their digital marketing with user-generated content videos and images at scale. Come see us at CIPIO.ai. If you want me to personally show you the platform and how we can solve your digital marketing performance problems with high-performing UGC, just go to jasonfalls.co/cipio … fill out that form and I'll personally set up time to chat with you.

The Cavs couldn't take care of business at MSG. The Knicks won both games at the garden and looked tough to stop. If they score one more win, the #5 seed will win their first playoff series since the early years of the Carmelo Anthony era. Cleveland isn't down and out just yet, and though LeBron James is not walking through that door, it's not done yet. Pete Kennedy joins the program as we give a full breakdown of what happened in game 4. The good and the bad. What happened to help New York. What went against the Cavaliers. All of it. Make sure to stay for the full program to hear the ultimate X-factor for game 5. - - - Check out Across The Cavs on Social Media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/acrossthecavs?trk=public_post_reshare_feed-actor-name Twitter: @AcrossCavs IG: @AcrossTheCavs

We've gotten into a little bit of a pattern here on the show. Seems like every other interview or so is with some founder or executive at an influencer marketing software company. There are lots of reasons for that. First, they're anxious to mention their platform to you since they know the people who listen to WInfluence are interested in and often shopping for solutions to problems with influencer marketing. That makes this group of people easy interviews. My goal in having them on the show is to certainly talk about their platform so you might have a good idea of something else out there, but then I try to dive deeper into their worldview, at least as it pertains to influencer marketing. We discuss and debate issues and such. That gives you more than just a veiled ad for their thing and helps us push the thinking. By the way – no one pays to be interviewed on this show. The editorial part of it is just me deciding that person has something worth sharing and talking about. Sure, I've interviewed Pete Kennedy from Tagger, who is our show sponsor, and some folks from companies that sponsor the Marketing Podcast Network, of which Winfluence is a member, but being interviewed on Winfluence is not part of any ad buy for them. Just so you know. Austin Rosenthal actually caught my attention recently by saying he didn't agree with my conclusion from an earlier conversation. If you'll remember back a few episodes we talked to Aaron Bruce of Posse.io. His platform allows brands to tap into an influencer's audience by targeting advertising to them with the creator's permission, but for a CPM payout to the influencer and no need for content creation. My headline / conclusion on that episode was “Are we doing influencer marketing all wrong.” So Austin took issue. It's no surprise. Austin Rosenthal is the chief operating officer at Lionize.ai. It is an influencer marketing software platform in the traditional sense. You use Lionize.ai to search and discover, then engage and manage influencer campaigns. So I could see why he would object to me inferring that we might be doing influencer marketing wrong by not focusing on just ad buys against influencer audiences. I welcomed the pushback and knowledge about Lionize.ai, but only if Austin would come on the show and explain both. So, a new tool and a little fun discussion is in order today on Winfluence.

#055 On this our seventh of eight episodes in our mini-series entitled, Fear of the LORD | Job thru Song of Songs, DrZ has a topical conversation with Pastor Pete Kennedy to get his take on the Fear of the LORD. Fearing God is not something we hear much about in church and Pastor Pete provides us his insight on the significance of this missing message.When something is repeated in Scripture it typically is interpreted as something that will happen. The more times it is repeated, the more significant the topic and eventually adopted as central to the storyline of the Bible. Such is the case with the topic fear of the LORD found in the first four books of the Wisdom literature (Song of Songs does not include a reference). The following are the topical mentions found in our mini-series text. A full listing of the verses are included in the Shownotes for this episode.12 verses of Job (10 of 42 chapters)63 verses in Psalms (40 of 150 Psalms)20 verses in Proverbs (16 of 31 Chapters)6 verses in Ecclesiastes (5 of 12 Chapters)With that as a brief introduction, listen to the call with Pastor Pete Kennedy and get his input on the topic of the fear of the LORD and application in a believer's life today.Listen, Enjoy, Share…Grace and Peace to you - DrZ
My definition of an influencer is anyone who can motivate an audience to take action. Now, that's a very broad definition. In fact, anyone can be an influencer (or more accurately, influential) under those criteria. But when it comes to differentiating between influencers, we have to split hairs. And one category where my hair-splitting axe comes out is the category of celebrities. I think there are two categories of celebrity influencers: Those who are celebrities and also have social media followings. And celebrities who are such because of their social media followings. Regardless of the differences or similarities, Brittani Kagan works with both kinds. She is the head of talent partnerships and a partner at Portal A. It bills itself as a branded and original content company. What they do specifically is create branded content … so influencer and celebrity campaigns, commercials and even long-form content, for brands. But they also create original content for streaming and media platforms like Netflix, HBO Max and beyond. They work with celebrities, but also with those I might classify as influencers. If the creator is a good fit for what they're building, they work with them. I put my definitions to the test with Brittani when we caught up recently. She shared a lot of insight into how bigger, celebrity-focused branded and original content talent scouts cast their projects, come up with ideas and more. Our conversation revealed a bit more about what it's like to create and partner with creators at the highest levels … with the biggest budgets. It was an enlightening conversation and one that should spark a few interesting ideas for us all. This episode of Winfluence is presented by Tagger, the complete influencer marketing software solution. You can meet me and Tagger president and founder Pete Kennedy at the Influencer Marketing Show April 27 in New York City. We will be joined on stage by Jenny Heinrich who leads influencer marketing at Ketchum as we discuss the metrics that matter for moving the needle in influencer marketing. Tagger is a great partner for isolating those success metrics and helping me report back to our clients at Cornett how their campaigns are doing at returning the KPIs and ROI they're seeking.

I've been working with and tinkering around on social media software, including influencer marketing platforms, for the better part of 20 years. I started cutting my teeth on content management platforms, social media management platforms … then in the late 2000s and early 2010s, I became somewhat established as having a degree of expertise with social listening platforms. For some time now, I've been demo-ing, testing and using influencer marketing software. As you know, I use Tagger. They are the presenting sponsor of Winfluence. It's a soup-to-nuts influencer marketing solution, very powerful and you've heard a lot about it here. That said, I can count on one hand how many times I've been able to talk the CEO, president or owner of one of any of those platforms in a really candid conversation about the software space, their software and the industry in general. It's not for lack of trying. But SaaS product executives are often protected by PR firms and beholden to shareholders first, so podcasters and industry influencers, if you will, are not primarily important. Well today, I'm getting closer to not being able to count those I've had deep conversations with on one hand. That's because Pete Kennedy, the president and co-founder of the aforementioned Tagger, a sponsor of this program. But Pete is here today to chat. And without handlers or PR monitors looking over anyone's shoulder. We dive into why there's no real good, reasonable priced influencer marketing tools out there; whether or not these platforms are in an adversarial relationship with the social networks because of brand collaborations and payments of influencers; what should be on the roadmap for social influencer platforms, the trends in the industry and a lot more. And coincidentally, Pete Kennedy and I will be on stage together at the Influencer Marketing Show in New York City on April 27. I have a discount code for you to get tickets to join me there. The Influencer Marketing Show is being held in North America for the first time. It's a one day event in New York City, just off Broadway at the New World Stages on West 50th. It will be Wednesday, April 27, 2022 … coming up in just a few short weeks. I will be chairing one of the stages as well as moderating a panel featuring Pete Kennedy, who you'll hear from today, and Jenny Heinrich, who leads influencer marketing strategy for Ketchum, one of the Omnicom companies. She's just brilliant. Go see the full speaker and topic lineup and get your ticket at jason.online/imsfalls.

I attended my first in-real-life conference last week. Social Media Marketing World happened with actual, physical people in an actual physical place – the San Diego Convention Center – and mostly without masks, though the hugs and enthusiastic closeness is still faint compared to what they once were. Ironically enough, the buzz was all about the Metaverse and NFTs … the fake worlds where the prognosticators are saying the future lies. Everyone was excited about being back in person only to talk about never having to do anything in person anymore. But that's me being Mr. Crankypants, I guess. My talk on influence marketing and the concepts we talk about here on Winfluence went over pretty well, I think. The Social Media Marketing World audience is made up more of the small to medium sized business owner and marketer who is still new to a lot of the digital and social space. Influence marketing there is probably an advanced topic. And I was the only one speaking on the subject. But the crowd was engaged, asked good questions. I got good feedback, so hopefully I helped a few folks along with their thinking. Maybe even a few of them have joined us here on the podcast. And that's kind of what I want to talk to you about today. Public speaking and public speakers. I'll break it down in a couple of ways. First, public speakers are influencers. The nature of their craft is to stand in front of a room of people to persuade them of something. That's our core definition of an influencer – someone who can persuade an audience to take action. It's important for you to know who the influential public speakers about your industry, business, topic or product category are. They are low-hanging fruit in terms of finding influential people to help you. But I also want to talk about what makes an audience not trust a speaker. Also, and speaking of speakers, I am speaking at the Influencer Marketing Show in New York City on April 27 and I have a discount code for you to get tickets to join me there. IMS has been held in London the last few years. I've been honored to be an emcee and moderator for the last two as they were virtual events. Now IMS is not only back to IRL, but it's here in the U.S. for the first time. It's a one day event in New York City, just off Broadway at the New World Stages on West 50th. It will be Wednesday, April 27, 2022 … coming up in just a few short weeks. I will be chairing one of the stages as well as moderating a panel for my friends at Tagger.

About three or four years ago my daughter Katie came home with a gallon jug of borax and another of Elmer's glue and announced she was going to make slime. As you can imagine, I was more than thrilled to have a 10-year-old playing with chemicals and food coloring all over my house. But she and a couple of her friends had fallen into the slime craze and wanted to make it. A similar thing happened to Angelina Ly maybe a year to earlier than that. She was 14-years-old at the time. She started making slime and posting pictures and recipes on social media channels and became quite popular as a slime influencer. So she started making slime recipes, packaging them and selling them on Etsy. Then migrated over to her own website and Shopify account. Late last year, she sold her 15,000th order. And all this was happening while she was in high school and her first year of college. Angelina Ly is the influencer and entrepreneur behind Firefly Slime. She is a mega influencer in the space, has done brand partnerships and all the things that go along with being an influencer. But she also walked that interesting entrepreneurial balance of also selling products and driving revenue for her own brand. She has been so successful doing it, her parents finally let go of the obsession with telling her to be a doctor or a lawyer. Angelina and I caught up recently to chat so we could learn more about her balancing act of being an online business owners and an influencer. All around slime.

How many of you would call yourselves a gamer? Well, if you play Wordle, you're a gamer. If you got sucked into Angry Birds, Candy Crush, or Trivia Crack … gamers all. I have 3-4 games I have on my phone to pass time waiting at a doctor's office, or to watch while I sit with my family watching a show I'm either not into or can listen to rather than watch. That makes me a gamer. The demographics and statistics on gamers are actually quite surprising. According to Statistia, 38% of gamers are 18-34 years old, but 35% are 35-64. The female segment has always been far higher than one might expect. Statistia says 45% of gamers are female. Our guest today has data that says the majority of gamers are women. But gaming as an avenue for influence marketing seems a bit of an enigma. My perception of that is a someone on Twitch playing Halo wearing my brand's logo on their T-shirt. But millions of people watch video gamers play games just like mainstream consumers watch sports, go to concerts and more. Irina Shames says people just appreciate the artistry at play with gamers. And those huge audiences present opportunities for brands. Irina is the executive vice-president of revenue and strategy for 3BlackDot, a digital entertainment studio that connects brands to audience-driven creators. So a version of influencer marketing. She joined me to chat about the somewhat mysterious world … at least to me … of gamers as influencers. There's a lot of great insights in this discussion, folks. The gaming world relies heavily on the concept of community, with influential gamers having their own and a very genuine relationship with them. Brands coming to the table with them need to be community focused, which is not the standard operating procedure for most brands.

Many of you know I host another podcast on the Marketing Podcast Network called Digging Deeper. Occasionally on that show, we interview someone that has a perspective or focus on something that either is, or is related closely to influencer marketing. When we do, I like to share that interview here as well. Why not make sure you get the good intel, too. Last week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Mark Anderson and Ryan Fey. Those names may or may not ring a bell with you, but they might if you just call them, Mark and Fey. They are The Grill Dads. Hosts of the popular Food Network show where two backyard grill jockeys cook up tasty recipes and some good humor for all to see. But Mark and Fey are actually ad agency guys who started cooking out for friends, then for some pop-up restaurants and food trucks in the Los Angeles area. They entered one of Guy Fieri's cooking competitions and won. Now, they don't do just the show even now. They have day jobs, Ryan is still a creative director in the ad world Mark is running a different kind of business these days, but still with his normal creative tendencies. I talked to the Grill Dads about the show, the social engine that drives it, where they see content marketing and creative leading both brands and influencers these days, and a lot more. It was a fun, funny and useful conversation. So I've pulled that interview out of Digging Deeper to share with you today. While I'm thinking about it, though, you should jump over and subscribe to Digging Deeper as well if you aren't already. On that show, I tend to talk more to brand-side marketers and experts about marketing strategy, creative and such from a more broad level than we typically get into on Winfluence. You can find that show and links to all its various subscription platforms at cornett.online/diggingdeeper. And stick around after the interview. I've got a few housekeeping notes that will be of interest to you about some events. This episode is sponsored by Tagger, the complete influencer marketing solution.

The Metaverse has been on the top of minds and conversations of most people in the marketing space in the last few months. Ever since Mark Zuckerberg and Meta, ne' Facebook, went all-in on VR to inflate stock prices because they had Oculus headsets to sell now, this seemingly new virtual world as a consumer and business reality has produced an explosion. Unfortunately, the explosion as been one of consultants and experts and specialty agencies telling brands and influencers that if they're not in the Metaverse, they're yesterday's news. Well, slow your roll there, though leader wannabes. The Metaverse is neat, but it's not for everybody or every brand. And there's still a lot of gap closing that needs to happen between consumer engagement there and brands solving the problem of how to drive that engagement. Last month I dedicated most of my monthly email newsletter to sharing my honest thoughts on the Metaverse and how brands, consumers and influencers can use it. The piece was so well received one of my fellow thinkers in the space, Ted Rubin, used my rant as his email newsletter last week. It was the first newsletter in a long time that earned more than a couple of replies from subscribers, too. More than a dozen people reached out to say how excited they were to read it and how refreshing it was to have a realistic perspective on this new world to chew on. Today on Winfluence, I'm going to share much of that piece with you. I've put it through the filter of it being used as a podcast script and tried to underline the influencer marketing implications a bit, so it's a little different than the original. But I'm going to give you my honest opinion of the Metaverse and how we can and should prioritize its use in today's commentary.

You may recall our episode from late January in which I adopted an exaggerated satirical stance responding to a podcaster who had taken exception to my answer to a question on Twitter. The question, from my fellow Marketing Podcast Network creator Seth Goldstein, was whether or not podcasting was a modern form of busking, or a street performer playing for change. I said no and Tanner Campbell, a podcast consultant who has his own show called Podcasting Sucks, disagreed and fired off an episode about me. And I responded with my tongue in cheek finger wagging. You can check that episode out at a link in the show notes for this episode, of course. In that back and forth, Tanner and I got to know each other a bit more and discovered we were kindred spirits in a lot of ways. So we thought a more friendly fire discussion about podcasting was in order. What evolved in our discussion was really interesting and fun. The first half of our conversation turned out to be Tanner asking me a bunch of questions. When I realized he was taking over my show, I flipped the conversation and got to know him a bit more. We talk about the history and recent explosion of podcasts, how both of us got started, our opinion of repurposing video content as audio podcasts … and on and on and on. We also spent a lot of time talking about the ability to grow and monetize podcasts in this era of mainstream media companies dominating the landscape. Super useful conversation. There's even some good nuggets in there on my history as a radio deejay. Honestly, we could have kept talking for hours, but we'll leave the marathon podcast to the wingnuts of the world out there. Today's episode is probably the first of more to come as we just sat and picked each other's brains. What resulted was what I think is a pretty damn useful listen for those of you interested in podcasts to build your influence as an influencer, or as a brand.

If you're an influencer or a talent manager, today's commentary might make you a little uncomfortable. I'm just going to throw that out there as a warning. But bear with me … I'm going to dish some harsh realities to our brand and agency side friends, too. We've been talking a lot lately about when to pay influencers. Last week's commentary answered a listener question about when to transition from paying with only product, to adding cash to the mix. But we haven't really dug into WHY we pay influencers. And depending on your perspective, the answer to that question is different. Influencers think we pay them for their talent. Brands think we pay them for their audiences. Talent managers think we pay them for a magical list of exhaustive qualities few of us pay attention to. And agencies think we pay influencers because they've duped the world into thinking they're effective. Sarcasm aside, the first thought of why we pay influencers has long been, to get our message in front of their audience. But that WHY is all wrong. The problem is there are multiple WHYs in the equation. And those WHYs need to be considered by influencers and talent managers in how they price brand engagements. They also need to be understood by brands and agencies so what they pay is fair. But what is fair pay for influencer and content creator engagement? We'll look at the various WHYs and I'll share what I think is a direction towards fair, in today's commentary. This episode is sponsored by Tagger, the complete influencer marketing solution.

I have been a student of stand-up comedy from my earliest memories. I would stay up late when I was little to watch The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson just to see the monologue, then hope beyond all hope one of the acts that night was a comedian. Later, I fell in love with David Letterman, who had more comedians and introduced me to a broader love of the craft. I bought cassette tapes of Dennis Miller, Bobcat Goldthwait and more. And, of course, anyone who grew up in the 1980s and loved stand-up comedy, had Eddie Murphy's Delirious and Raw memorized. I love stand-up. And stand-up comedians. So I was quite aware of the plight of them during the pandemic. Clubs couldn't open safely. Many closed for good. And the comedians themselves? They had to turn to alternative ways to earn a living. One of those comedians used the challenge of the pandemic to turn his colleagues from the club circuit into content creators for brands. Richie Redding spent 19 years as a club comedian. The last 13 of those that was his full-time job. When he reached the point of pandemic panic, not knowing how he was going to pay the bills, he got a call from an ad agency that needed a funny video. The ask to be a content creator lit a fire under him and Redding started a comedy consulting firm. Funnier Than You Are offers brands the opportunity to tap into professional comedians for comedy content. Redding forms a writer's room and matches the writer friends with the brand's target audience. The content they're producing is making a dent, helping brands churn out far better content than they would otherwise, even from their agencies … and I'm an agency guy! But beyond that, Redding is expanding the concept to help build individual influence and influencer status for his roster of comedy writer's too.

A couple of weeks ago a marketing executive with an online retailer in the United Kingdom reached out to ask for my feedback on something. Her situation was not dissimilar to many people who email or message me with influencer marketing inquiries. The company sells sporting goods and apparel, has grown nicely over the last few years and is trying to find ways to drive more revenue and growth through social media. Like most of us, they're turning to influencers as one channel to improve that part of their marketing mix. But, again like many, they haven't been overly impressed with the return on their investment in influencers. According to her inquiry, “many of our influencer campaigns perform poorly, or not quite as expected.” To date, the company has only engaged influencers willing to exchange posts for products. They haven't had to outlay cash. In their defense, for those of you who think there should always be a cash offering to creators, some of the products they have had to offer score in the thousands of dollars, so it's not out of the question to think a trade for services might be in order on occasion. That gray area between exchanging posts for product and investing in influencers on a more advanced, but also cash-centric level is a difficult one to navigate without upsetting some apple carts along the way, either internal or external. So the executive in question posed this as a question: “We're finding it difficult to differentiate the accounts likely to succeed vs those that generate nothing. Generally, our outreach attempts do get responses, though more and more are requiring cash instead of product. Do you think it's necessary to provide cash now as an incentive to better our chances at achieving our goals?” She said they would appreciate any ideas I had on how they should better approach influencers and how they should look at compensating them. I'll share my answer in today's commentary. This episode is sponsored by Tagger, the complete influencer marketing solution.

Hosts Peter Kennedy (@petekennedyy) & Pat Boyle (@8oyle) run through some of the most exciting games from week 5 and Power Rank the best 3 teams from each conference. AFC Candidates: Bills, Ravens, Browns, Chargers, and Chiefs. Did the Bills establish themselves as the best after a dominate win vs. the Chiefs? Who should you have more faith in the Browns or Ravens? Plus, what makes the Chargers special. NFC Candidates: Cowboys, Packers, Buccaneers, Cardinals, and Rams. Is it too early to call the Cowboys elite? The Cardinals may be 5-0 but are the Buccs still the team to beat? The Packers and Rams have clear flaws but who can figure out how to fix them first? Lastly, we recap our picks (27-23 combined through 5 weeks) and play 'No Regrets' vs. 'I Hate Myself'.
Host Peter Kennedy is joined by Dan Bahno aka Mr. Bahno, big time Ravens fan, moments after the game to try and wrap their heads around that wild comeback victory. The Lamar Jackson hype is real! Is it MVP level hype? How the hell did they pull this win off over the Colts? Will the Ravens play any more normal games this season? What does a Ravens fan want to say to all the haters that say Lamar can't pass? Plus, Pete Kennedy talks about how after week 5 do we really know who these teams really are? What we think we know vs. what we actually know can be very different and the NFL has a special way of constantly humbling all of us. @SubwaySportsTalk on IG and Tik Tok and @SubwaySportsTlk on twitter.
Hosts Peter Kennedy and Pat Boyle recap the action from week 2. Just when you thought you learned something from week 1, the NFL humbles us all. Who were the biggest victims of week 1 hype or horror? From the Titans and Ravens big comebacks to the Seahawks and Saints big let downs we cover it all. The Cardinals & Raiders continue to impress but what are their ceilings? Plus, we must call out Jets fans for their reaction to Zach Wilson's bad game. Lastly, we hit our new favorite segment "No Regrets" and recap Pete & Pats picks from week 2 where they both went 4-1 (8-2 total) bringing both their records to 6-4 (12-8 total). @SubwaySportsTalk on IG and Tik Tok and @SubwaySportsTlk on twitter.
Hosts Peter Kennedy,, Pat Boyle, and Kyle Anderson go into depth on the Giants disappointing week 1, the Jets and Zach Wilson, and the most interesting games/teams after week 1. What did we see from Daniel Jones and will he ever figure it out? Is Jason Garrett setting DJ up to fail? What can we make of Zach Wilson's debut? Why we are tired of the Aaron Rodgers/Packers narratives and why we wont care after week 2. How for real are the Cardinals after they earned week 1 glory? Can we confirm the Dolphins or Patriots are actually good? Who's better? Plus, how Lamar Jackson's heroics ended up biting the Ravens. What Lamar can do to improve even more. Lastly, we debut our segment, "No Regrets" where we go over our picks and decide if we regret any picks or if we'd make the same pick over again! @SubwaySportsTalk on IG and Tik Tok and @SubwaySportsTlk on twitter.
Hosts Peter Kennedy and Pat Boyle are back to kick off this football season with a top notch NFL preview. But first we had to talk Mets and their drama for a minute (15 minutes). Then we tackle the biggest questions heading into the NFL season starting with the narratives surrounding Mac Jones and the Patriots. We discuss the AFC East: Josh Allen, Tua, and Zach Wilson. What is success for the Jets and Giants? Dave Gettleman, Jason Garrett, and Daniel Jones are all in put up or shut up seasons. Do they have the weapons and what it takes to come out on top? The AFC North and NFC West are two powerhouse divisions. Who are the favorites to win it and can we see multiple playoff teams from both. Lamar Jackson and Baker Mayfield enter their 4th season still with critics - can they both silence all the haters this year? Who is the cream of the crop in the NFC West - can Stafford lead the Rams to glory, can Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll maintain excellence, or will the Cardinals shock the league? Who is more likely to return to the Super Bowl: The Chiefs or Buccaneers? Then Pete hits Pat with his best future player props for the 21 season. WE BACK ALL SEASON LONG! @SubwaySportsTalk on IG and Tik Tok and @SubwaySportsTlk on twitter.

How easily we forget! Raw milk has been part of the human diet for thousands of years, yet only after a century of introducing pasteurization, many people think that the only way to consume milk is to pasteurize it first. Our raw milk heritage is getting lost. But thanks to farmers and activists who believe in the value of raw milk and who are brave enough to fight against the establishment, raw milk is coming back. From being legal in only 27 states in the 1990s, raw milk is now legal in all but 7 states and more people are consuming it every day. In today's episode, Pete Kennedy, lawyer and defender of food freedom, explains the history of the raw milk movement, what's left to be done, and what we can do to be a part of it all!

The NBA Outsiders make their Over/Under picks for the NBA Eastern Conference. Pete Kennedy, John-Lucas Duffy, Frank Villani, and Justin Babb host to talk you through the widely considered "weak" East. But, there are more interesting story lines that people may realize. We discuss it all.
This week, we continue our discussion with Pete Kennedy of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, where he'll describe the Great Apple Muffin and Oatmeal Cookie Confiscation by authorities in Michigan, several more ways in which our food freedoms are assaulted, and how Peter's role at the Fund helps real farmers make a living and thoughtful consumers get access to health-promoting foods. If you missed the first half of this interview with Peter when he described the outrageous cases in which he has to defend small farmers, how the government protects corporate food operations from responsibility and what the FDA thinks about your right to consume healthy food, listen now.
PETE KENNEDY is an attorney in Sarasota, Florida and serves as the president of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund and vice president of the Farm-to-Consumer Foundation. Pete has worked on raw dairy issues in various States as well as other food distribution aspects including extensive reviews of legislation, particularly food safety and raw milk bills. On April 14, Governor Doug Burgum signed House Bill 1433 (HB 1433), referred to as the North Dakota Food Freedom Act, into law.On April 7, the North Dakota House of Representatives concurred in amendments the Senate made to HB 1433, clearing the way for the governor’s signature. Like the version that initially passed the House, the bill allows the direct sale to consumers by producers of all foods without licensing and inspection except meat, meat products, and raw dairy products. According to USDA, federal law prohibits the unregulated sale of meat and meat products. Under the Food Freedom Act, producers can sell up to 1,000 poultry annually of their own raising without state regulation.As for raw dairy products, they can already be distributed legally through herd share agreements without state regulation. A provision in the original bill allowing for the sale of raw milk and raw milk products was removed by the House committee that initially heard HB 1433 in February.
Do you want the option of buying raw milk legally in your state? Would you like to have chickens in your backyard? The Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF) works hard to defend your right to obtain the food of your choice from the source of your choice. Pete Kennedy, an attorney in Florida, is on the board of the FTCLDF and he has personally been involved in representing and counseling farmers who are simply trying to provide local, sustainable foods to their neighbors, schools, and grocery stores. Many of us know that good health begins at the dining room table. The healthiest diets are those made up of nutrient-dense, organic foods from small local farmers, not from the industrial food complex. Listen to Pete and learn about the influences at play on what is available to us as consumers, and how you can make a difference in the fight for food freedom.
In America, our federal government and many of our state governments have done everything they can to make it difficult for us to access raw milk, and difficult for farmers and food retailers to sell it. This fact by itself should be enough for us to discover what is so good about this superfood, that the authorities find it worth their time to prevent us from getting it. In fact, government persecution of those buying and selling raw milk is right in line with the global program under Codex Alimentarius, to move the best sources of nutrition out of reach of consumers worldwide. Concurrent with the war against health freedom is the crackdown on small family farms, with regulations favoring big industrial producers and processors, that make survival increasingly difficult for the small, quality conscious family business. This Sunday we feature two heroic attorneys who have chosen to help fight for our freedom instead of go after the better financial compensation they could get in more conventional legal work for huge corporations. Pete Kennedy is counsel and director for Farm To Consumer Legal Defense Fund (www.farmtoconsumer.org). Judith McGeary is a sustainable farmer, as well as founder and executive director of Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance (www.farmandranchfreedom.org). These two organizations are working diligently to bring back freedom in food production and consumer choice of what foods to purchase and use. Pete's organization has focused largely on the defense of raw milk production and consumption, right to farm laws, zoning and many other related issues, while Judith's group has been instrumental in creating and supporting legislation to further the cause of freedom for small farm and ranch operations and promoting common sense policies for local, diversified agricultural systems.

As an Irish-born heartthrob with a vibrant attitude that reflects American country rock, Pete Kennedy has been compared to such legends as Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, and Neil Diamond, bringing a fresh new voice, prestigious musicianship, and an Irish accent that will make the ladies weak in the knees. His Irish ballads are the perfect compliment to American country music, quickly turning him into an international sensation in the making and a shoo-in for the CMAs. With no question, Pete's music will make you press the “repeat” button, with hits like “I Am the One,” “Yellow,” and “Love You Anyway,” that have received recognition both here in the states and CMA to overseas in the UK. His easygoing vocals, musicality, and lyrics have created depth and sincerity to subjects that we all can sympathize with; dealing with our own battles that life throws at us to relationships. Isn't that what successful country records are all about?Raised along the Irish countryside with a family of five brothers, Pete Kennedy has shared a range of lasting memories, but has seen hardship at an early age when Pete's father died saving his family from a fire that erupted from his family's locally owned bar. Since then, Pete has forever understood the love and dedication it takes to support a family while gaining his strength through music. With influences like the Eagles and Don Henley, he used music as a gateway from heartache and performed music in his younger years to support his wife and two daughters; from bands to a profitable solo career. Increasing his confidence, he played in pubs all across the UK and even Germany and experimented on new sounds that fit into his voice the best. He even began flourishing careers in modeling, acting, and theatre.By 2010, he created KEMC Records with his cousin to create demo EPs to send out to places as far as the states and into the hands of Lee Williams at CMR Nashville. Williams offered Pete to bring his Irish charm to Nashville and perform at Cadillac Ranch for the International Artist Showcase before the 2011 CMA Awards. The single, “Yellow,” reached 25 on the International Hot-disc Chart and top 10 for the British/Irish Independent Hot-disc charts in late 2011. As a fearless songwriter, Pete Kennedy has since been interviewed and featured on Inside Music Row TV and Nashville Broadcasting Network's Video Jukebox. Making a name for himself, he has been featured on the “Hollywood Meets Nashville Grammy Viewing Party and Benefit Gala,” “Viva! NashVegas Radio Show,” NBC 4 “More At Midday,” and named an official CMA featured artist on the Chevrolet stage during the 2013 CMA Festival. Kennedy also signed with the America's fastest-growing performing rights organization, SESAC. Pete has written with former American Idol contestant Ayla Brown, Corey Wagar, songstress Jessica Ridley as well as successful songwriters Beau Fuller (Jimmie Van Zant), Lynn Wilbanks, Cece DuBois, Jan Buckingham (Lee Greenwood, Whitney Houston), Bob McGilpin and Jo-Leah Wallace Tilbury. From recording, modeling, interviewing, and greeting new fans, the Ireland native has been on an incredible journey.Life has become a dream-come-true as his speed of success in the UK has been unstoppable. Pete has performed two major UK tours with pop icon Neil Sedaka and the Stylistics, receiving musical praise from Sedaka himself. Grammy Award Winning Mavericks band member Robert Reynolds said, "When I saw and heard Pete for the first time I saw an incredibly talented guy who is fearless in his song-writing.” Generating nominations for his single “I Am the One” at the BCM Awards and winning the coveted Album of the Year for “The Nashville Sessions: Volume 1” in 2012, he continues to receive recognition for his musicianship, and recently, was nominated for the BCM Male Vocalist of the Year award for 2013. With melodies and stories that you can tell come from the heart, Pete Kennedy will leave his expanding fan base smiling for more as he continues to tour in major cities across the U.S. and instills his rugged country boy image in all of us.

The Wise Traditions speaker series continues. With less than 6 weeks to go until the Weston A. Price Foundation's International Conference in Atlanta, Aaron interviews Pete Kennedy, president of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund. Pete talks about the success of the recent BaconPalooza that was held by the FTCLDF at Joel Salatin's Polyface Farms. Pete then gets into the programs the FTCLDF will be involved with at the upcoming Wise Traditions Conference, including the debate at the fundraiser dinner with Dr. Joseph Mercola and Joel Salatin on mandatory government labeling of GMOs. At the Conference, Pete will be speaking about legal developments in raw milk access. Pete shares with Aaron some recent news about raw milk in various states. Pete also discusses the issue of right to farm acts, including some cases going on with the right to farm in Michigan.
This has been by far the most popular episode. Pete Kennedy, Esq., President of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund is our guest tonight. We will be discussing the government war against raw milk, and the FDA SWAT-style raids with complete lack of legal due process. Can the FDA seize and destroy dairy products without a scintilla of evidence that the products are contaminated or defective. The government thinks that it can, and it is doing it on a regular basis. Examples of places that have been raided include Morningland Dairy, Rawsome Foods, and Rainbow Acres Farm. Please call the show with your questions or comments: 310-807-5158 or 877-878-1431
