Welcome to episode 430 of Growers Daily! We cover: tunnels in rough weather areas, I take you to the field with me to prep and plant some lettuce. And it's feedback friday. We are a Non-Profit! 

The night in the ER that changed everything. After being diagnosed with advanced kidney cancer, Dr. JC Doornick found himself overwhelmed by fear, uncertainty, and an endless stream of advice from well-meaning people. But instead of asking only how to fight the cancer, he began asking a different question: What allowed it to grow in the first place? In this deeply personal episode, Dr. JC shares the story of his diagnosis for the first time and introduces a powerful mindset shift inspired by his Interface Response System (IRS): before you plant new seeds, you must first pull the weeds. Learn why healing isn't just about treatments, supplements, or new habits—it's about transforming the terrain of your mind, body, and life so that health can thrive. Whether you're facing illness, burnout, grief, or any major life challenge, this episode will help you stop chasing solutions and start creating the conditions for lasting change.

This is part three of a ten-part podcast series documenting the European Industrial Hemp Association's 23rd Annual Conference in Poznan, Poland, at the Institute of Fiber Plants and Medicinal Medicine, June 10-12. Estelle Delangle, director of the Hemp European Hub in Troyes, France, frames the hemp challenge differently than most: The material isn't the problem, the world is. "The world is not ready for hemp. Today, when you use hemp in textile, for example, you have to make it look like something else. You have to make it look like cotton. You have to make it look like wool. You have to make it look like linen or flax," she said. Delangle has spent six years building the Hemp European Hub — a cooperative company that coordinates complex, cross-sector projects across Europe and beyond. The Hub isn't a traditional industry cluster or a government agency. It's a working laboratory for what Delangle calls "cooperative bioeconomy applied to hemp." The European hemp model, she explains, rests on three pillars: farmers who built their own markets and machines; price stability that makes the sector resilient; and whole-plant utilization — fiber for textiles, grain for food, hurd for bedding and leaves for extraction. No waste. "We are trying to do at the hub is to act stone by stone on those socio-technical obstacles," Delangle said, describing her approach to regulatory change, consumer perception and cross-sector cooperation. "Time is key. You don't change the world overnight." The Hub hosts the World Hemp Forum every two years in Troyes, drawing 300 participants from around the world. The next edition is November 24–26, 2026.

This week's episode is a real doozy, folks. We're talking about the Colorado governor's decision to keep a coal plant open, and the ensuing battle between the federal government, the state, and the utilities. But it's not just about the coal plant - it's about the structure of the Republican Central Committee, the Department of Energy's loan to Westinghouse, and the Supreme Court's decision on gun rights. It's a wild ride, and we're just getting started.The speaker dives into the details of the Colorado coal plant, explaining how the governor's decision is not just about politics, but about the facts on the ground. We're talking about a plant that was scheduled to close years ago, but was kept open by the Trump administration. The speaker also touches on the Department of Energy's loan to Westinghouse, and how it's a game-changer in the nuclear energy industry. But what's really interesting is the speaker's take on the loan - is it corporate welfare, or is it a smart move to take on China?The episode also covers the Supreme Court's decision on gun rights, and how it affects the Second Amendment. The speaker breaks down the decision, explaining how it's a major victory for gun owners, and how it sets a precedent for future cases. But what's really striking is the speaker's commentary on the decision - it's not just about guns, it's about the power of the people, and the importance of individual rights.If you're interested in learning more about these topics, and hearing the speaker's unique perspective, be sure to listen to the full episode. With expert analysis and insightful commentary, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to stay informed on the latest news and trends.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We opened this episode of The Dr. Peter Breggin Hour acknowledging the weight of our times. For the past week, we've explored how to live meaningfully amid chaos, threats, and cultural unraveling. That conversation remains vital. But reality does not pause for comfort. This week, we returned to the difficult terrain with our friend J.J. Carroll — a man of uncommon courage, a former law enforcement officer with decades on the border and in fugitive operations, a truth-teller who was recently fired for daring to speak plainly on the very issues he lived. J.J.'s experiences are not abstract. They have been forged in daily encounters with violence in the six months he worked with ICE in 2025-2026 and the violence he faced for 24 years as a Border Patrol Officer, arresting drug cartel members on the Southern border. He describes a nation where the demographic transformation is not subtle policy but visible, measurable destruction. J.J. is a firsthand witness to the continued open borders, net increases in illegal immigration, and jobs going overwhelmingly to non-Americans while native-born citizens, especially White males, are sidelined. Government data he cites paints a stark picture: hundreds of arrests daily, yet a system so backlogged that true mass deportations feel like a distant promise rather than a current reality. We do not shy away from these realities on this show. America was built by a specific people with a specific culture — a White, Christian, European-rooted nation that achieved greatness through shared values, faith, rule of law, and high-trust communities. Pretending otherwise dishonors history and endangers the future. As J.J. powerfully states, demographics shape destiny. When you import millions from cultures with vastly different norms, lower average IQs, and incompatible worldviews — often without any expectation of assimilation — you do not enrich; you transform, and not for the better. Europe is learning this lesson in blood and social collapse. We ignore it at our peril. Even now, the mayhem is surging onto our shores. The rising tide of migrant violence and social breakdown is unmistakable across Europe and England, where no-go zones, knife crime, and gang rapes have become grim daily realities. Here in the United States, the pattern repeats in major cities like New York and beyond. The many stories of murders, rapes, and other violence by illegal immigrant populations are not isolated tragedies; they are the predictable consequence of policies that prioritize unassimilated foreign populations over the safety and future of our own children. We have a huge country to manage with almost 350 million souls living here from all parts of the world. There are issues with continued illegal border crossings, international drug trafficking into the US, and massive issues of fraud and theft on a level never before identified that threatens to demolish us and invites totalitarianism to come and take charge. The Judeo-Christian foundational culture that created America and those individuals who were all part of it are being shredded by our political and intellectual elite and other cultures coming from far different places in the world who want no part of what we have here in terms of civilization. A significant number of these people have no understanding of respect for human life, the rule of law, the US Constitution, basic rules of life, or rules of the road that we take for granted. How does that ignorance translate into the daily lives of citizens? No respect for human life translates into murder, including the deliberate attacks on people who are strangers by perpetrators using trucks, knives, guns, and other weapons. No understanding of, agreement with, and respect for the rule of law translates into fraud and theft on a massive basis, employing lying, subterfuge, and cunning to swindle, cheat, and steal from individuals and from American citizens through federal theft. In California, several massive, multi-million-dollar fraud rings involving illegal immigrants and transnational criminal organizations have recently been dismantled by federal authorities for stealing taxpayer-funded welfare, COVID-19 relief, and tax revenue. Similar large-scale fraud operations tied to Somali communities have also plagued Minnesota, further draining public resources intended for American citizens. This cultural incompatibility extends even to everyday infrastructure. Illegal immigrant commercial drivers, often poorly trained, unlicensed, or operating stolen or improperly maintained vehicles, are contributing to chaos on our highways. Serious accidents, deadly pile-ups, and overwhelmed emergency services have increased in areas with high concentrations of such drivers, adding yet another layer of preventable danger to American families who simply want to travel safely on roads built and maintained by prior generations. As Elizabeth Nickson has powerfully documented in her recent Substack column “White Boy's Summer,” the impact across Europe has been devastating. Decades of mass migration have been accompanied by a deliberate political project that has taught many newcomers to view the native populations — the very citizens who built and sustain these societies as producers, taxpayers, and keepers of the culture — with resentment and outright hatred. (See: White Boy's Summer) The Spiritual Dimension This is not merely political or economic. It is spiritual. We agreed that there is a degree of evil walking the world that we have not seen before. Both concepts of evil and love have been banished from intellectual discussion, laughed at as old-fashioned. Cultural relativism — the idea that all cultures and moral systems are equally valid with no objective standard by which to judge them — is the opposite of these terms. Allan Bloom's 1987 bestseller, The Closing of the American Mind, sounded the warning but was quickly buried in intellectual and media circles with a wave of multiculturalism, DEI, calls of racism to silence critics, and a focus on bending reality with transgenderism and other tales that have left devastation in their path. J.J. speaks as a believer who sees Satan as the source of evil roaming the earth, a force that delights in the slaughter of the innocent — 63 million abortions, the mutilation of children under transgender ideology, and the darkest allegations tied to elite networks like those surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. The failure to fully release the Epstein files, despite promises and power, is a profound betrayal. When those in authority protect the powerful at the expense of justice for children, the system stands condemned. Peter and I have long warned about the moral free fall — the erosion of the Ten Commandments in public and private life, the suppression of love and conscience, the celebration of evil in entertainment and elite circles. Occult influences, ritualistic abuses, and a rejection of God create a void that darkness eagerly fills. We see it in the boldness of anti-human spectacles at major events and in the quiet despair of families watching their children be targeted. We Refuse Despair We do not exempt leaders from scrutiny. While Donald Trump remains the strongest border president in modern memory, serious disappointments linger — continued promotion of mRNA technology, the absence of full accountability for past crimes, and an emperor-like tone in some foreign policy pronouncements. Real change requires more than one man. It demands people willing to reclaim their inheritance. Yet we refuse despair. Peter reminded us of the Black Robed Regiment — the ministers who fueled the American Revolution with Judeo-Christian conviction. The Black Robed Regiment was the courageous pastors and clergy of the Revolutionary era. They preached biblical principles of liberty, justice, and resistance to tyranny from their pulpits and from town to town in Colonial days, leading up to the American Revolution, while dressed in their distinctive black robes. These men were instrumental in shaping the fundamental, encompassing worldviews of individual freedom, liberty, and release from tyranny. These courageous and hardy pastors, ministers, and clerics rallied the American people, framing the fight for independence as a sacred duty and providing the moral and spiritual backbone of our nation's birth. We need a similar revival today: a return to the fundamentals of faith, family, and constitutional order. J.J. finds hope in his teenage son's generation and the friends he drives around — young people who are more politically engaged and spiritually aware than many in prior generations. They are turning away from the emptiness of the sexual revolution, materialism, and identity chaos, and they want none of it. Across the country, our youngest generations — Gen Z and Alpha — are showing signs of a quiet but powerful shift, returning to God, traditional churches, and core American values of family, self-reliance, and ordered liberty. Reports and surveys document rising interest in Christianity, declining support for extreme gender ideology, and a renewed appreciation for the Founding principles that made this nation exceptional. Young girls, too, are increasingly rejecting the glitter culture of hyper-sexualization and fluid identity in favor of something more grounded and enduring. Small Is Beautiful: Love in Action In the face of such overwhelming disorder, the answer begins at home. Make your home a sanctuary. Love your spouse fiercely. Raise your children in truth. Plant apple trees — literally, as Peter and I recently did in our backyard. Build a real community where you are. Civility, trust, and decency radiate outward from strong families. As Peter emphasized at the close, the world's evil fades by comparison to the love we put into it. God will measure us by that love. In a time when elites peddle division and death, we counter with creation, fidelity, and courage. This conversation with J.J. Carroll is raw, unflinching, and necessary. We invite you to listen to the full episode. Let it stir you — not to hopelessness, but to renewed commitment. Speak truth. Reject the lies about our nation's Founding and character. Protect the innocent. Cling to God. And never apologize for loving your people, your culture, and your children's future. We continue our series on living faithfully in dark days — see our recent “Small Is Beautiful” piece on Substack. Your presence here, your subscriptions, and your own acts of courage sustain our work. We love you, dear audience. Stay strong. The fight is generational, but good men and women — and a sovereign God — are not easily defeated.

Marco Fernández, coordinador del programa de Anticorrupción y Educación de México Evalúa y de la Escuela de Gobierno del TEC de Monterrey, nos platica sobre el tema

Interview with Tim Harrison, Managing Director, Ionic Rare Earths Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/ionic-rare-earth-asxixr-advanced-recycler-targets-china-free-heavy-rare-earth-supply-7871Recording date: 16th June 2026Ionic Rare Earths is advancing its position in the rapidly evolving global rare earth supply chain, driven by Western efforts to reduce reliance on China following export restrictions imposed in 2025. At the center of its strategy is a demonstration-scale recycling and separation facility in Belfast, which processes end-of-life magnets and manufacturing waste into separated rare earth oxides. A key milestone has been the successful validation of these recycled materials in a Ford motor—an industry first for a recycler—alongside a commercial supply agreement with US-based Advanced Magnet Lab, which serves defense-related applications.Although the Belfast plant currently produces only about 10 tonnes of separated oxides annually, it has demonstrated the ability to recover a broad range of elements, including high-value heavy rare earths such as dysprosium, terbium, and yttrium. Prices for these materials have surged sharply since China's restrictions, in some cases increasing multiple times over, significantly strengthening the project's economic outlook.A 2024 feasibility study for a larger £85 million Belfast facility projected annual output of 400 tonnes, with a post-tax net present value exceeding $500 million and an internal rate of return above 40%. Management believes current market conditions could further enhance these returns, though updated figures have not yet been released. The company has secured a £12 million UK government grant and is targeting a final investment decision by September 2026, contingent on completing funding and securing supply and offtake agreements.Looking ahead, Ionic plans to replicate its modular recycling model internationally, prioritizing the United States, where significant investment in domestic magnet manufacturing is expected to generate substantial recyclable waste. The company favors joint ventures to retain control over its technology and material flows. While promising, key risks remain, including scaling production, securing full project financing, and finalizing commercial agreements.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ionic-rare-earths-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, US and Iranian negotiators agree on a roadmap towards a final peace agreement after their first round of talks in Switzerland. Mediators from Qatar and Pakistan announce new mechanisms to oversee negotiations, monitor the ceasefire in Lebanon and help prevent incidents in the Strait of Hormuz. We also have the latest from Qatar, where an explosion at the Barzan gas facility in Ras Laffan Industrial City has left 54 people injured and 18 missing. Emergency crews remain at the scene as authorities investigate what QatarEnergy describes as an operational incident. Lebanon remains one of the biggest unresolved issues in the wider US-Iran negotiations, with Israel insisting it will keep troops in parts of southern Lebanon while Hezbollah warns it will respond to any further violations of the ceasefire. In business, Egypt's Midar and Dubai-based Majid Al Futtaim sign a multibillion-dollar agreement to develop a large mixed-use community in New Cairo, underlining the growing scale of Gulf investment there. And in the UAE, experts welcome the country's landmark ban on social media use for children under 15, saying the new rules could help tackle excessive screen time and improve young people's digital well-being.

Episode Topic: Fr. Ted Said: Cultivating HopeIn his inaugural address, University President Rev. Robert A. Dowd, C.S.C., called us to be “sustainers of hope and builders of bridges.” But in a world where optimism often feels in short supply, where do we find the inspiration to keep nurturing the good? Plant those seeds through a revitalizing experience where you can pause, exhale, and allow your spirit to blossom.

Ken Rosato fills in for Mark Simone. The big question: Should the U.S. have signed that peace deal with Iran? Ken also recaps the massive Knicks' ticker tape parade in Lower Manhattan, where two million people turned out, and things stayed mostly safe and celebratory. Zohran Mamdani's speech at the parade made waves for its delivery and content, sparking plenty of debate. Ken tries to explain why capitalism can work and shares his thoughts on how to make the most of it. There's also news from Massachusetts, where 11 people, allegedly illegal immigrants, were charged with fraudulently obtaining food stamps. Ken takes your calls!  Ken interviews Maria Intscher-Owrang, co-founder of Simplifyber. Maria's company is shaking things up in the world of plant fiber manufacturing. She explains that they're finding ways to cut down on waste before products are even made, which is a huge deal for sustainability. Instead of the usual spinning, weaving, cutting, and sewing, they use 3D technology to create fabric in completely new ways. It's a fresh take that could really change how sustainable materials are made.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There is no way to separate the plight of families experiencing poverty with the realities of climate change and ecological degradation. But what does it look like to base a Christian international development organization directly at that intersection? In this episode, Brandon Stiver is joined by Milmer Martinez Vergara from Plant with Purpose to explore the interconnections of creation care, poverty alleviation, and community development and what that all has to do with following Christ. They discuss practical approaches, theological perspectives, and instead of doom, they share hope for environmental and social justice.

Swapping animal protein for plant protein may help women lose weight after menopause. Dr. Neal Barnard joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to discuss a new study he co-authored that finds replacing animal protein with plant protein may be a powerful strategy for weight loss in postmenopausal women. The study found that total protein intake did not need to change. Instead, the source of protein appeared to matter most. As women reduced animal protein and increased plant protein from foods such as soybeans, beans, and grains, they experienced significant weight loss. Dr. Barnard explains why not all protein is created equal, how plant protein may affect metabolism differently than animal protein, and why this could be especially important for women after menopause.

Host David Brühlmann returns for a focused solo episode to provide an honest, data-driven perspective on the evolving landscape of host selection for biologics manufacturing. Building on part one, David reviews five alternative expression platforms and offers a clear, practical framework for scientists navigating host cell decisions today. David Brühlmann moves past simplistic "replacement" narratives to instead examine where each technology, from plant farming to cell-free systems, fits in today's market and production realities.Key topics discussedWhy asking if a novel host will "replace CHO" is the wrong question for scientists and manufacturers (00:11)Critical dimensions to evaluate: cost structure, speed, and intrinsic product quality (01:20)Review of five alternative platforms with current clinical and regulatory status: Plant farming for speed and decentralization (03:42)Insect cells for VLPs and complex proteins (05:00)Cell-free protein synthesis for ADCs and unique conjugation requirements (06:23)Moss for monoclonal antibodies with distinct glycosylation patterns (07:50)Filamentous fungi for high secretion and thermotolerance (08:47)A practical host selection framework by molecule type and manufacturing context (09:59)Detailed constraints and advantages of each platform, including cost, infrastructure, timeline, and product attributes (10:09)Analysis of silkworm production as a disruptive possibility for future biologics manufacturing (13:09)The evolving toolkit available to bioprocess scientists—and why "CHO replacement" is a distraction from more relevant questions (12:06)Smart insight:The real development over the past decade is that bioprocess scientists now have a credible, validated toolkit of alternatives for specific molecules in specific contexts. The practical implication: know this landscape well enough to ask the right host selection question at program initiation, before you've built months of process development around a platform you chose by default.Here are the episodes referenced:Episodes 163 - 164: How Moss Enables Production of Unproducible Protein Therapeutics with Andreas SchaafEpisodes 141 - 142: How Microalgae Cuts Antibody Costs by 70% and Redefines Biomanufacturing with Muriel BardorEpisodes 235 - 236: Plant-Based Biomanufacturing: How Molecular Farming Produces Biopharmaceuticals in Weeks, Not Months with Waranyoo PhoolcharoenEpisodes 217 - 218: Silkworm Biomanufacturing: From Ancient Silk Production to Phase I Vaccine Trials with Masafumi OsawaEpisodes 229 - 230: Cyanobacteria Biomanufacturing: Achieving Carbon-Neutral Production at Lower Cost Than Fermentation with Tim CorcoranNext:If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or your favorite podcast platform.

What if the best medicine for your body has nothing to do with treating your disease and everything to do with treating you? That's the question at the heart of this conversation, and I am so honored to bring you one of the most respected voices in herbal medicine today, David Winston. In this episode of the Wild Herbs Podcast, I talk with herbalist and ethnobotanist David Winston about how plant energetics and human energetics help match herbs to a person's constitution so we treat people rather than diseases. David reflects on herbal medicine's resurgence since the late 1960s, shares how his early connection with plants began in childhood, and explains why herbalism and orthodox medicine are complementary. We discuss the difference between treating a disease and treating a person, nootropic herbs, compliance and dosing forms, the concept of synergy in herbal formulas, nature's role in mental health, foundations of health, and mimosa (Albizia) bark as a powerful mood elevator. David also describes his two-year clinical training program and formula-building approach.

What happens when one of the world's most legendary tropical fruit hunters, permaculture pioneers, and community builders sits down to talk about plants, purpose, spirituality, and the future of humanity? In this deeply inspiring conversation, Darin Olien welcomes longtime friend, ethnobotanist, permaculture educator, and visionary community creator Stephen Brooks for a wide-ranging exploration of regenerative living, plant intelligence, community building, food systems, and humanity's forgotten relationship with nature. From the global success of Down to Earth with Zac Efron to the creation of the Church of Fruit, the evolution of permaculture, tropical fruit exploration, regenerative communities, and Stephen's newest visionary project in Costa Rica, this conversation is a powerful reminder that the solutions to many of humanity's biggest challenges may already exist within nature itself. The question is whether we are willing to listen.     What You'll Learn How Down to Earth almost never made it to air The hidden challenge of translating complex ideas to mass audiences Why Stephen created the Church of Fruit How ritual, food, and community can fill a modern spiritual void What permaculture actually means beyond gardening Why perennial agriculture may be one of humanity's most important solutions How exotic fruit hunters are preserving genetic diversity around the world Why plants may be humanity's greatest teachers The future of regenerative communities and conscious living How technology is helping preserve indigenous wisdom Stephen's newest Costa Rican project: Eterna Why community, gathering, and real human connection matter more than ever     Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality 00:02:27 – Introducing Stephen Brooks 00:02:51 – The Down to Earth connection 00:03:18 – Punta Mona, Alegría Village, and 30 years in Costa Rica 00:03:36 – Stephen's newest project: Eterna 00:03:53 – The rise of the Church of Fruit 00:04:19 – Reconnecting people through nature and ritual 00:04:59 – How Darin and Stephen first connected 00:06:02 – The creation of Down to Earth 00:07:26 – The challenges of bringing meaningful content to mainstream audiences 00:09:58 – Life off-grid and observing modern culture 00:11:42 – Why education works best through experience 00:11:55 – The spiritual purpose behind the Church of Fruit 00:12:53 – Addressing modern society's spiritual void 00:13:57 – Stephen as a bridge between humans and plants 00:14:32 – The language of plants 00:16:20 – Why humanity has become disconnected from nature 00:16:56 – The incredible world of exotic fruits 00:18:31 – Plant collectors, seed preservation, and biodiversity 00:20:25 – Discovering new fruits from around the world 00:22:18 – Indigenous wisdom and preserving plant knowledge 00:23:05 – The culture of radical sharing in the plant community 00:24:22 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:25:59 – The importance of preserving rare genetics 00:30:14 – What permaculture actually means 00:31:12 – Regenerative agriculture and the future of food 00:32:29 – Why current food systems cannot continue 00:33:25 – The concept of the perennial diet 00:34:50 – Meeting human needs with less energy 00:36:07 – Permaculture as a decision-making framework 00:37:47 – Why annual agriculture is energy intensive 00:38:50 – Creating abundance through design 00:39:49 – Learning directly from nature 00:40:29 – How disconnected society has become 00:41:18 – Covid, collective behavior, and social change 00:42:05 – The role of education in transformation 00:42:56 – Building EcoTeach and online communities 00:43:27 – Becoming a "karmic billionaire" 00:44:08 – Why consumer demand is changing the food industry 00:45:23 – Signs humanity is waking up 00:46:26 – Stephen's vision for the future 00:47:19 – Eterna: regenerative living meets community 00:48:42 – Creating event spaces for transformation 00:49:29 – Educational hospitality and regenerative design 00:50:08 – Integrating local communities into development 00:51:30 – Building schools, programs, and shared resources 00:52:03 – Music, festivals, and creating meaningful culture 00:53:17 – Floresta and educational gatherings 00:54:22 – Why community matters more than ever 00:55:12 – Loneliness, connection, and finding your tribe 00:56:01 – Not Your Average Garden Club 00:56:56 – The future of farm schools and regenerative education 00:57:25 – Final reflections on purpose, plants, and possibility     Thank You to Our Sponsors Manna Vitality: Go to mannavitality.com/ and use code DARIN12 for 12% off your order.

The more we align ourselves with the principles that forests, ecosystems, and living systems have been demonstrating for millions of years, the more abundance, connection, resilience, and purpose we create in our own lives. The future may not require inventing something entirely new—it may simply require remembering what nature has been trying to teach us all along."
