#224: Author and economist Austin Frerick returns to break down how grocery store monopolies are shaping what ends up in our carts, who profits from it, and who gets left out.

This conversation offers a clear-eyed view of the corporate forces eroding real food, real farms, and the possibility of justice in what we eat.https://realorganicproject.org/austin-frerick-grocery-store-monopolies-224Austin Frerick is a 7th generation Iowan who, after watching his home state be transformed through agricultural policy to the detriment of the family farmer, became an expert on agriculture and antitrust policy and now serves the Co-Chair of the Biden campaign's Agriculture Antitrust Policy Committee.

TRANSCRIPT (there may be some errors): Dear songwriter, if you are someone who is starting to produce  your songs from your own home, from your bedroom,  and you're struggling to finish your projects,  it's because, probably because you aren't asking this one question.  And I know this because I didn't know the answer to this question or the question itself  for a long time, which led to feeling confused, frustrated, and having no idea where to go with the song. But then I realized that knowing the question and knowing the answer to that question  was important,  and it came down to having one clear system.  And the question is, what role does this sound, I'm about to add play in the development of this song  and the clear system is what I call the production palette. So with the production palette, essentially there are five main categories  and each sound you add can occupy one of.  Those categories.  So I'll give you an example for my song Real Friends, which I released back in December of 2024.  I'll kind of break down the category and then the sound. So the category  is main melody,  the sound  is vocals. The second category is what I call melody support.  The sound for that might be a vocal harmony. Um, for this song, I had like a little bells synth  that  helped the melody.  Violin was also another one, right? So it was more  melodic rather than harmonic, and it was more in line with the main melody.  The third category is what I call accompaniment support. So for this song, it was the sound was, the sounds were guitar, violin, and cello.  Basically providing that extra layer of accompaniment. Now the main accompaniment,  that is the fourth category.  That was organ and synthesizer.  So that kind of provided the, the chord progression, the bed for everything else to sit upon. And then the fifth category is rhythm slash bass. So for this song, the sounds were synth bass, electric bass, and electronic drums.  So let me give you those five categories going from the bottom up now. So category one from the bottom up, rhythm slash base, category two, main accompaniment,  category three, accompaniment support,  category four, melody support,  category five, main melody. So this way. There's a clear role and understanding for each new sound that you add, and you can decide how and when you want to introduce each of those sounds over the course of a song  rather than your song sounding like a big wall of sound, like minded before I started using this.  Cool. Hopefully you found this to be helpful. Um, if you are a songwriter who's starting to produce from your bedroom and you feel like your songs are taking forever to complete, I want to send you an invitation.  And that invitation is to  my online community of songwriters and producers called the Songwriter's Vault.  And inside the vault, you will get access to even more in-depth resources and you'll be connected.Most importantly, with the community of fellow songwriters, I'm making it completely free for the first 50 members, so depending on when you listen to this, it may not be free, but it is worth checking.  Okay. That is it for today. Thank you so much. Happy writing.

Liz recently served on the National Organic Standards Board and was recognized as Organic Farmer of the Year at Marbleseed (MOSES) in 2021.To watch a video version of this podcast with access to the full transcript and links relevant to our conversation, please visit:https://realorganicproject.org/liz-graznak-surprise-25-percent-market-gone-215The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/Are you an organic farmer looking to communicate the premium quality of your milk, meat, fruits, veggies, or CSA shares to shoppers?
