Send us a textEver wondered what happens when legal expertise meets digital art collecting? Artie Handz, head of marketing at Verse and founder of Artie Gallery, takes us on a journey through his fascinating transition from courtroom to crypto art.The spark ignited during Christmas 2020 when an article about NBA Top Shot landed in Artie's inbox. Having previously written about asset digitization in his MBA program years earlier, he felt an immediate connection to the concept. "I was all in," Artie explains, describing his transition from childhood sports card collector to owning thousands of NFTs, including prestigious pieces like his CryptoPunk purchased just before the 2021 price surge.What makes Web3 special for Artie is the elimination of traditional barriers between artists and collectors. Unlike the walled-off gallery system, digital art enables direct connections with creators worldwide. "You get to see it being built, made, painted, created, coded," he shares. "You're like a proud parent sometimes when it releases." This democratization represents a fundamental shift in how art is experienced and valued.Looking toward the future, Artie predicts we'll eventually stop using qualifiers like "digital art" or "AI art" – everything will simply be "art" again. He anticipates innovation from unexpected sources, perhaps from "some 17-year-old kid" who will introduce something revolutionary that changes the entire landscape. However, challenges remain, including questions about mass adoption, market volatility, and the long-term accessibility of blockchain-based art.Beyond his digital pursuits, Artie revealed surprising personal dimensions – he's both a private pilot and a fifth-generation cattle rancher with a 37,000-acre family ranch in Wyoming. Now focused on his role at Verse and his personal gallery, he's preparing to launch "The Book of Hope," a basketball-themed collection that bridges his love of sports with meaningful artistic expression.Follow Artie's journey as he continues breaking new ground in the evolving world of digital art collecting and curation. Whether you're a seasoned collector or crypto-curious, his insights offer valuable perspective on navigating this rapidly changing creative frontier.https://x.com/punk7635Support the show

Pushing boxes and pulling folders from the massive Baldwin Corporation Records held for the Institute for Regional Studies at NDSU Archives, I come to the realization we have a lot to learn about life on the plains by rereading the considerable — I should say massive — documentation available in the reading room. Given that the papers of the Baldwin Farms in Dickey County alone comprise 32 feet of records, it's a heck of a job.

It's citrus season in the northern hemisphere, and fruit trees are bursting with oranges and lemons. But CrowdScience listener Jonathan wants to know what happened to the tangerines he ate as a child in the 1960s? He remembers a fruit that was juicy, sweet and full of pips, found each Christmas at the bottom of his stocking. Tangerines today, he thinks, just don't compare. Crowdscience tries to track down this elusive fruit. Presenter Anand Jagatia traces the tangerine's origins back to Ancient China, as botanist David Mabberley explains that the name ‘tangerine' comes from a fruit that made its way from Asia, to Africa and the Moroccan port of Tangier, before arriving in the US in the early 1800s. Professor Tracy Kahn from UC Riverside tells us about the hybridisation process that goes into breeding modern tangerines, but says that while the season for these fruits has been dramatically extended, there's a cost in terms of diversity and flavour. Who better to help us track down this missing mandarin than a fruit detective? Well, that's one of pomologist David Karp's other job titles, and he reveals exactly which cultivar we might be looking for: the Dancy. So where can we find one? Over on Friend's Ranches in Ojai, California, Emily Ayala shows us two trees planted by her late grandfather, and explains that nothing grown since really matches its unique flavour.So what will listener Jonathan think when we send him a box?

Ranches have long been at the beating heart of Texas — first, as working plots; then, as legacy land.

Four years later, demand has come roaring back. TRD's Joe Lovinger talks with one of the state's prolific ranch brokers to find out what's drawing all of that dollar volume to the desert.

Ed Ashurst has cowboyed on the most iconic ranches in Arizona. His experiences working cattle in the mountains, deserts and along the Mexican border have inspired more than a dozen books, both fiction and nonfiction. He is also a working cowboy who has ridden and gathered cattle and horses on over seven thousand square miles of the American West, accumulating over fifty years of experience as a big ranch cowboy. He currently manages a large cattle ranch in southeastern Arizona. He has also been involved in producing rodeos and horse shows, as well as horse sales, and has competed in the rodeo arena for over fifty years. His books are about his life's experiences covering different aspects and scenes that race across his vivid memory and water a fertile imagination. All that he has written originates from stories that are well worn from being told many times. He believes that storytelling is an art form that is no less important than painting or sculpting, and people say that his books read as if the storyteller is there in person. Here is a list of books he was written in the order in which he wrote them: "Miracle or Coincidence," "Real Cowboys," "Wagon Boss," "Mavericks," "Alligators in the Moat," "The Life and Times of Warner Glenn," "Stealin' From The Neighbors," "Charlie Gould," "Stories That Terrell Shelley Told Me," "Mel Potter and Friends," "Kidnapped," and coming soon, "Some of Them Dallied, Some Tied Hard and Fast.” If interested in Ed's books go to Amazon

“This isn't just a purchasing decision. This has huge and sweeping ramifications. As consumers, we dictate the food system; our choices pull a lever that directly dictates how all this works.” —Marshall Bartlett Sustainable meat production is about more than just the end product— it's also about supporting a holistic farming system that nourishes both people and the land. When consumers make the conscientious choice to purchase meat from farms practicing this kind of care, it solidifies a food system that will continue nourishing communities for many years to come. This week, Justine sits down with Marshall Bartlett, the co-founder and CEO of Home Place Pastures, a fifth-generation family farm in Mississippi that has transformed over the past decade to practice regenerative agriculture through rotational grazing of grass-fed beef and pastured pork. Marshall aims to improve soil health, support ethical animal welfare, and make locally grown, sustainable meat accessible in his community. Tune in as Justine and Marshall talk about the challenges of conventional agriculture, how regenerative practices like rotational grazing can improve soil health and sequester carbon long-term, and the importance of education and storytelling to help consumers understand labels and make informed choices that support small, local producers. Meet Marshall: Marshall grew up in the Home Place and fell in love with the farm and his hometown throughout his childhood. After graduating from the Mississippi School of Math and Science, Marshall left the South to attend Dartmouth College for undergrad. After college, he spent time in Montana, completed an AmeriCorps term in New Orleans rebuilding houses destroyed in Katrina, and eventually ran operations for a small business specializing in sourcing local meat for New Orleans chefs. In 2014, at the age of 24, Marshall returned to the Home Place with a new vision for the family farm and has worked for the last 10 years to bring this vision to reality. You can usually find him on the Home Place Monday through Saturday somewhere between the meat plant, the farming operation, and the Farm Store. He often gives farm tours and butcher classes at the Home Place. He spends his off-farm time with his wife Katie and daughter Joan or traveling to help learn from other farmers and meat processors.

Nate Rozeveld and Rod Rozeveld sit down and discuss Nate's hunt for Wild hogs in Oklahoma on this week's episode of Michigan Wild. Starting the episode off Nate and Rod actually talk about turkey hunting and why it wasn't a priority to hunt Turkeys or a desirable game to pursue. Rod growing up had first hand experience with the negative impact the wild turkey had on the farmers crop and livestock. So to him and local farmers they were a nuisance and not necessary. As time has gone on the population got more in check and seemed to alleviate the stress they put on farmers' fields and danger to their livestock. Farms and Ranches face similar detrimental issues if they happen to be in an area that has an abundance of wild hogs. Which is exactly where Nate found himself in Oklahoma. He was invited down there by John Hudspeth from the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast and enjoyed his time partaking in killing some hogs and bringing some meat back home. Some of the topics discussed around the hunting trip were... -What is the terrain like in Oklahoma -The challenges the locals face due to the wild hogs -Methods used for hog population control -Recap of each successful hunt Finishing up the episode Nate and Rod hop into some current events focused around their spring food plot ideas.

From his early days growing up in Colorado, to pioneering architectural designs, Bob's initial calling was shaped by a deep-seated passion for creation. Yet, it was the allure of vast open spaces that led him to trade blueprints for the rugged life of ranching on a sprawling 3,800-acre property. Bob delves into the exhilarating experience of running OZ Architecture, revealing the challenges and triumphs of steering Colorado's largest architectural firm. His bold decision to leave it all behind for ranch life opens a fascinating chapter, inspiring "Twenty Miles of Fence; Blueprint of a Cowboy," a memoir that captures the essence of his journey. Bob contrasts the serene rhythms of ranch life against the corporate grind, sharing insights that only such a stark transition could unveil. Now, as the co-owner of a mercantile and saloon, Bob brings a slice of the Wild West to the modern day, focusing on the intricacies of customer-centered business. Throughout the episode, Bob reflects on the figures who've shaped his journey, offering listeners a deeply personal glimpse into the life of a man who's built a legacy by daring to follow his dreams.
