Joe Pardavila welcomes Ken Polk, founder of Arlington—a multi-family office managing $15 billion in assets—and author of The Spirit of Wealth Preservation: Leverage Your Finite Life for the Infinite. Ken delves into the often-overlooked challenges of wealth preservation, arguing it can be just as difficult as building wealth itself. He introduces the concept of “spiritual capital”—the collective purpose that binds families and businesses—and shares how values, legacy, and intentionality form the bedrock of lasting success. From starting Arlington at age 25 with “a desk and a chair” to navigating economic unpredictability, Ken reveals how discipline, simplicity, and a focus on “followship” (not just leadership) drive his approach. He discusses generational shifts in finance, Gen Z's desire to “do good” with wealth, and why he chose not to pass his business to his children, prioritizing their autonomy over tradition. Listeners will gain actionable insights on crafting family legacies, identifying personal gifts, and balancing innovation with timeless principles. Whether you're managing significant wealth or simply seeking to build a meaningful legacy, this episode is packed with wisdom on aligning money with purpose.KEN POLK is the visionary founder of Arlington, a multifamily office specializing in wealth preservation and purpose-driven financial planning. With more than 25 years of experience, Polk has guided affluent families in aligning their financial strategies with their personal and communal values. A Certified Public Accountant and Certified Financial Planner, Polk blends professional expertise with personal passion, helping clients create meaningful legacies. Ken lives with his wife and children in Alabama, where he continues to inspire families to thrive across generations.

In this special episode of the Robertson and Easterling Podcast, Craig Robertson sits down with legendary Mississippi State coach Ron Polk—known to many as the "Godfather of SEC Baseball"—for a heartfelt and insightful conversation that spans over half a century of baseball history, mentorship, and legacy. From his early childhood in Arizona, where his father — a former semi-pro ballplayer—first introduced him to the game, to his rise as one of the most influential coaches in NCAA history, Coach Polk shares stories that have shaped his life and career. Listeners will hear about his humble beginnings, his mother's health struggles which prompted his family's cross-country move, his journey through college and graduate school, and the pivotal moments that led him to Starkville, leading the USA baseball team and beyond. With 1,373 career wins, 8 College World Series appearances, and over 180 players drafted into professional baseball, Coach Polk's impact on the game is undeniable. But this episode goes deeper than stats—it reveals the heart of a man who has dedicated his life to machine-like service, who still writes handwritten letters to former players, and who built a home that doubles as a museum to honor the teams and people he's loved along the way. Whether you're a lifelong Bulldog fan, a lover of baseball, or just someone who appreciates a life of service well lived, this episode offers a rare and personal glimpse into the legacy of a true American sports icon.

In the tradition of telling the bees, beekeepers relay the news of a death in the family to each of their hives, oftentimes draping them in black mourning cloth. As bee colonies in the US perish in record numbers, Emily Polk wonders if bees not only witness human grief, but also feel loss themselves. Meeting with a famous Yemeni beekeeper in downtown Oakland, California, and scientists from around the world studying bee behavior and cognition, she learns of the enduring generosity and spirit of survival of these tiny creatures, and glimpses the greater circles of loss that connect us with the more-than-human world.

In this BAK40 Episode of the Two Bucks Podcast, Brian Krebs is joined by Jake Polk of Polk Whitetail Management to kick off the series with a deep dive into managing "difficult acres"—the kind of small, tough, imperfect properties most hunters actually own. They explore how to turn C- or D-tier land into productive deer habitat, despite limited time, equipment, or budget. The conversation covers real-world habitat improvements like creating bedding mounds in cattails, designing diverse “turkey foot” food plots, choosing between white pines and cedars for bedding cover, and planting persistent crabapples for year-round attraction. Brian and Jake also discuss the difference between trying to "hold" deer vs. building a buck hotel, balancing shed hunting with fall success, and the value of rotating diverse food sources over monoculture.

With spring comes a number of citrus events. One of those was the Florida Citrus Show held on March 13 in Fort Pierce. Michael Rogers, director of the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) Citrus Research and Education Center, joins the March All In For Citrus podcast to discuss highlights of Florida Citrus Show. He also gives a sneak peek of the annual Florida Citrus Growers' Institute planned for April 8 at South Florida State College in Avon Park. Rogers says the seminars were well attended at the Florida Citrus Show and covered a wide range of topics. One highlight was a grower panel, which he says was a good example of growers and researchers collaborating. “It was good to hear that the growers on the panel were committed to hanging in there and continuing to fight HLB,” says Rogers. “I really appreciated that they are sharing information and working closely with the researchers.” Chris Oswalt, citrus Extension agent for Polk and Hillsborough counties, also joins the podcast this month to give more details on the Citrus Institute. There's a change in the program this year that he believes growers will appreciate. After lunch, rather than going back into a seminar setting with speakers, there will be researchers from the various UF/IFAS citrus labs available to answer specific questions from attendees. It will be a way that growers can build their own educational experience. The Citrus Institute will be providing continuing education units for growers. Also in the March podcast, UF/IFAS weed scientist Ramdas Kanissery discusses his research aimed at helping citrus growers manage weeds. He says this is a tough task given Florida's climate and large weed-seed bank in the soil. One area he is studying is the growing tolerance weeds are developing to important herbicides like glyphosate. He also talks about the role cover crops could play in weed management.

About 120,000 immigrants lacking permanent legal status live in Oregon, according to a 2022 estimate from the Pew Research Center. The state has sanctuary laws in place, meaning that state and local resources are not used for federal immigration enforcement. Law enforcement officials in places including Marion, Polk and Jackson counties have told local media outlets they will continue to follow state laws on immigration enforcement.  Still, immigrant communities face uncertainty as policies change at the federal level.

Who is the most successful president in American history? George Washington secured American independence. Abraham Lincoln preserved the union and ended slavery. Franklin D. Roosevelt ended the Depression, remade government, and won World War II. But if we define "success" as the ability to articulate your goals and achieve every single one of them, perhaps only one president in American history was ever perfectly successful. In 1845, James K. Polk, newly elected by a whisker-thin margin, confided to his friend George Bancroft the four goals of his four years in the White House. Acquire Oregon from Great Britain. Acquire California from Mexico. Reduce the tariff. Establish an independent treasury. Four years later, he'd done all this and more. As the historian Daniel Patrick Howe wrote, "Judged by these objectives, Polk is probably the most successful president the United States has ever had.” And that's why Polk is the subject of today's show. I don't think another president in American history has so large a gap between his modern reputation and his actual achievement. There are two great biographies about Polk that I've read that have been published in the last 20 years. I'm very pleased that today, we have both authors on the show. Walter Borneman is the author of 'Polk: The Man Who Transformed the Presidency and America.' And Robert Merry is the author of 'A Country of Vast Designs: James K. Polk, the Mexican War and the Conquest of the American Continent_._' If you have questions, observations, or ideas for future episodes, email us at PlainEnglish@Spotify.com.
