Martin Black discusses ranching, horsemanship and making a living in the southwestern corner of Idaho. The lifelong horseman has deep roots in the region, as both sides of his family settled in Owyhee County more than 150 years ago and raised and sold thousands of horses to ranchers and buckaroo outfits throughout the Great Basin. Black himself ran cattle and trained horses for many years before he began conducting horsemanship clinics, a livelihood pioneered by his former father-in-law, Ray Hunt. Black's reputation as a teacher of practical horsemanship skills has taken him throughout the United States and into Australia, Brazil and Europe. In addition to working as a rancher and clinician, he has competed successfully in colt starting competitions, won major ranch horse events, claimed a Ranch Horse Association of American National Championship, and started multiple performance horses that went on to win titles in cutting and reined cow horse. He has also released several DVDs, written numerous articles and co-authored the book, Evidence Based Horsemanship with Dr. Stephen Peters. Today, Black continues to ranch in Idaho and conduct private and public clinics.
On this post-Thanksgiving edition of MAHA News, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince kick things off with holiday banter before digging into a rapid-fire barrage of health, agriculture, and regulatory bombshells. They react to Dr. Marty Makari's explosive podcast revelations about Lyme disease origins and U.S. cancer patients' cells being gene-edited in China, then break down major shifts inside America's health agencies, from new HHS leadership to Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph Abraham stepping in as the CDC's new #2. The hosts examine the uproar over the CDC's vaccine-autism webpage update, Senator Bill Cassidy's pharma-funded outrage, and newly exposed corruption inside HHS. From there, the episode turns to food and agriculture: Campbell's Soup executives trashing their own products, PFAS pesticide approvals, and Chuck Grassley's defense of Big Ag as Kennedy advisors target harmful pesticides. Jordan and Nate highlight alarming cancer clusters in heavy-spray states, unpack USDA and EPA failures, and spotlight ranchers fighting back through private-member co-ops and new grassroots alliances aimed at breaking the Big Four packer monopoly. They close with cannabis policy hypocrisy, fluoride debates, demographic decline, and the MAHA community's new health challenge board.

Today on the American Family Farmer, we're proud to bring you a stand-alone feature interview with Dawn Broeder, founder of Farm Fusion Cooking Classes and a lifelong champion of Colorado agriculture.Dawn's story begins on the family farm where she was raised—an environment that not only shaped her work ethic but also gave her a profound respect for the land and the animals in her care. As a young girl, she was responsible for feeding calves, tending their living areas, caring for the chickens, helping with milking, and assisting with daily horse care. She was part of cattle round-ups and participated in the necessary but tough work of maintaining a herd—de-horning, branding, castrating, and everything in between. These early experiences gave her an intimate understanding of what it means to steward animals, manage a farm, and sustain a family through agriculture.While Dawn's roots were in ranch life, she also discovered a deep love for cooking. That passion eventually led her to pursue formal training at Escoffier School of Culinary Arts in Boulder, where she earned her culinary certificate and expanded her skillset beyond the ranch kitchen.But like many who grow up connected to the land, Dawn felt the pull to return home. Today, she and her husband have blended their worlds—agriculture and culinary arts—into a truly unique operation: a barn-based teaching kitchen where they host immersive, hands-on cooking classes. Farm Fusion allows guests to experience food at its source, learn how ingredients are grown and raised, and develop the confidence to cook real, wholesome meals. From harvesting ingredients to preparing delicious dishes, students gain a genuine farm-to-table experience rooted in connection, education, and respect for where food comes from.In this conversation, Dawn shares her journey from childhood chores to culinary school to becoming a farm-to-table educator. She explains how Farm Fusion is helping people reconnect with agriculture at a time when many feel disconnected from the origins of their food. And she offers insight into the joy, challenges, and deep fulfillment that come with building a teaching kitchen on a working ranch.Whether you're a farmer, a foodie, or someone who simply appreciates a great back-to-the-land story, Dawn's passion shines through. Her work is a reminder that cooking isn't just a skill—it's a bridge between the earth, the farmer, and the family table.Learn more about Dawn's classes and story at farmfusion.org.

Out here on California's rangelands, we talk a lot about stewardship—the responsibility to care for the land so it can continue to sustain generations to come. But sometimes, the land gives something back to us in return: peace, perspective, and a place to heal.This month, as we pause to honor the men and women who have served our nation on Veterans Day, we're reminded that coming home can often be one of the toughest battles they will ever face. That's where the Mighty Oaks Foundation steps in. Founded by Chad Robichaux, a former Force Recon Marine and veteran advocate, the organization helps warriors find hope and restoration through faith, brotherhood, and connection—all grounded in the healing power of the land.In this episode of Tuned in to the Land, CEO and host Michael Delbar sits down with Chad for a powerful and deeply honest conversation about service, healing, and the restorative role that open spaces and working lands can play.Throughout the episode, Chad shares his personal journey, including the challenges he faced after military service, living with PTSD, and the role that faith played as he worked to rebuild his life. That process eventually led him to form Mighty Oaks, drawing on what he learned and what he wished had existed for others walking a similar road. His story is raw and real, and while parts of the conversation are heavy (a heads up to our listeners), it underscores the profound impact that support, community, faith, and time spent on the land can have in helping people find their way back to hope.Want to learn more?

Seit Monaten prägt der Streit um die sogenannten Epstein-Files die amerikanische Politik. Die Ermittlungsakten sollen auch Verbindungen zwischen Donald Trump und dem verstorbenen New Yorker Geschäftsmann Jeffrey Epstein dokumentieren, seit Monaten wehrt sich der US-Präsident gegen deren Veröffentlichung. Doch jetzt hat Trump überraschend eingelenkt. Die Gründe dafür sieht Tagesthemen Moderator Ingo Zamperoni vor allem im Stimmungswechsel innerhalb seiner Partei: "Ich glaube, er wollte dem zuvorkommen, dass gegen seinen Willen Republikaner und Demokraten gemeinsam eine Veröffentlichung durchgesetzt hätten im Kongress." Vor allem die ganz rechten Anhänger aus der MAGA-Bewegung, die Donald Trump bisher vorbehaltlos unterstützt haben, wenden sich bei diesem Thema gegen ihr Idol: „Es gibt diesen schönen Begriff, das Sprichwort im Englischen, that's the straw that broke the camel's back“, schätzt Jiffer Bourguignon die Lage ein. Es fühle sich an wie der Tropfen, der das Fass zum Überlaufen gebracht habe. Außerdem sprechen Jiffer und Ingo mit Ralf Borchard, der bis September in Washington als ARD-Korrespondent gearbeitet und danach einen Podcast über einen typischen Familienstreit veröffentlicht hat. In diesem Fall geht es um den Rancher und Radiomoderator Paul aus Montana, der schon dreimal Trump gewählt hat. Seine Schwester Joyce ist Politikprofessorin in Washington und lehnt die MAGA-Bewegung ab. Die Geschichte erinnert an die endlose Diskussion, die Jiffer mit ihrem verstorbenen Vater Paul geführt hat, und zeigt, wie sehr das Land noch immer gespalten ist.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince return with a packed episode of MAHA News, diving straight into winter wellness, immune support tricks, and the value of natural remedies before tackling the week's biggest health and agriculture stories. They break down Oregon and Washington's aggressive new regulations on small farmers, from redefining CAFOs to six-figure compliance demands and even satellite-based enforcement, highlighting how state governments are squeezing ranchers and threatening local food systems. Jordan and Nate also examine the booming GLP-1 weight-loss drug craze, Trump and RFK Jr.'s push to slash prices, and why these drugs should remain a last resort. The discussion expands to RFK Jr.'s announcement that mercury will finally be gone from vaccines, the upcoming overhaul of U.S. dietary guidelines, and the potential fallout of Congress closing the Delta-8 hemp loophole, putting much of the CBD industry at risk.

"They don't hate wolves, they just hate the idea of losing their livelihood.

In this week's Ag Tribes Report, Vance Crowe is joined by fifth-generation Texas Panhandle farmer Casey Kimbrell for a fast, candid breakdown of three stories rocking agriculture. They unpack the touted Trump–Xi "soybean breakthrough," asking whether a 25 MMT annual commitment is progress or just a return to pre-trade-war status quo. Then they wade into the renewed push for mandatory country-of-origin labeling in beef, the packer vs. rancher incentives behind the current system, and why transparency matters more than ever. They close the news block with Bill Gates' pivot from climate alarmism toward prioritizing vaccines, and what a shift in climate narratives could mean for farm economics and regulations. Beyond the headlines, Casey shares his Bitcoin-to-land price snapshot from Colorado, explains why he believes anyone can succeed in agriculture with relentless optimism and grit, and names Donald Trump as his "worthy adversary" amid criticism of recent moves affecting cattle markets. It's a spirited, no-spin conversation about trade, labeling, climate, and the hard realities of building a future in ag—always with room to respectfully disagree.Legacy Interviews - A service that records individuals and couples telling their life stories so that future generations can know their family history. https://www.legacyinterviews.com/experienceRiver.com - Invest in Bitcoin with Confidence https://river.com/signup?r=OAB5SKTP https://river.com/invite?r=OAB5SKTP

In this explosive new episode of Talk Dirt To Me, we go all in on the Trump–Argentina beef import debacle that's got every American cattle producer fired up. Is this move to import beef from Argentina really about lowering domestic prices, or is it a slap in the face to U.S. ranchers? We break down what's really going on behind the scenes and why this decision could hit the American beef industry hard. Logan and Bobby Lee dig into why beef prices are high, whether Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (MCOOL) needs to make a comeback, and if the NCBA (National Cattlemen's Beef Association) might've played a bigger role in this than anyone's admitting. Did they tick Trump off? Are they even fighting for ranchers? We also ask the million-dollar question: would we still vote for Trump after this? It's a raw, unfiltered discussion that every cattleman, farmer, and red-blooded American needs to hear. Plus, we light up some good old pipe tobacco in the studio and talk beef, politics, and patriotism the way it ought to be done! Real, uncut, and unapologetic. Go check out Agzaga!

Democrats Shield Violent Illegals: Nine illegal aliens from African nations were arrested in New York for crimes including robbery, assault, and drug trafficking. Local Democrats, including Mayor Eric Adams and socialist Zohran Mamdani, condemned the arrests as “authoritarian theatrics.” In Los Angeles, an activist teacher warned that “ICE isn't the only one with guns,” while Illinois launched a hotline for citizens to report unmarked federal vehicles. Bryan calls it “a coordinated resistance between politicians, activists, and cartels.” Democrat Senate Candidate Exposed: In Maine, Democrat hopeful Graham Platner apologized for a Nazi tattoo but not for training Antifa and socialist gun clubs in paramilitary tactics. Endorsed by Bernie Sanders, Platner claims his behavior stemmed from PTSD. Bryan warns, “Democrats say they fight fascism, but they're fine with it when it's their fascism.” Trump vs. America's Ranchers: The President told ranchers to lower beef prices, crediting his tariffs for their recent profits. But Bryan explains that droughts, rising feed costs, screw-worm outbreaks, and market monopolies by the Big Four packers — Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and Marfrig — are the real culprits. He spotlights a new Nebraska rancher-owned processing plant as a hopeful sign for fair pricing and independence from corporate control.

We begin the show expressing concern about Trump's opposition to a new reconciliation bill at a time when we need to codify so many of his policies into law. One of those big policies is agriculture reform. We're joined today by Breeauna Sagdal, an independent rancher and policy fellow with the Beef Initiative, who outlines for us the multifront war on ranchers and farmers and all of the government policies that have created centralized control for a monopoly. This has caused a record low availability of beef, health concerns with the quality of the meat, and a lack of choice and competition. Moreover, she explains how conservation policies, farm bills, and misallocation of land and resources to row crops have harmed our food security for natural proteins and fruits and vegetables. Now that Trump is committed to importing beef from Argentina, Sagdal argues that we'd be better off importing the Angus genes so we can bolster ranchers' cattle rather than competing with their output.
