Assistant Coach Tim Simplot returned to the Bench for this Bohmbach-hosted game to team up with Dave and face off against Walling and Snyder. Early on, Snyder claimed to be a "Glue Guy" who hopes not to be bound for the glue factory. One team opted to add an incorrect first name to a correct last name (in fact, it was the answer's brother), thus losing out on a critical 25 points. We learned that even God can't hit a 1-Iron and Dave just wanted to say "Gooch." We also had a return of the Stranger Things coin which helped a team get a correct answer. #glueguy #gluefactory #oneiron #gooch #stangerthings #macrosota #famousducks  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

BOOK A STRATEGY CALL Summary In this episode of Leadership on the Links, we sit down with John Ballard, a 27-year golf industry veteran and former Superintendent at Valhalla Golf Club, to talk about one of the most underexplored topics in the turf profession: what happens when you decide to walk away from a top-100 club and start over. John shares his remarkable career story, from landing his first superintendent role at just 22 years old at Audubon Country Club, to managing cool-season transitions at the University of Louisville, to leading the grounds operation at Valhalla through COVID, a historic Zoysia renovation, and the 2024 PGA Championship. But what makes this episode truly special is what came after Valhalla: his candid reflection on identity, career transitions, and his move into a new role as Key Account Manager at Simplot Turf and Horticulture. Whether you're a superintendent eyeing your next move, an assistant trying to build your network, or someone navigating a career crossroads, this episode is packed with perspective you can act on today. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How John climbed from assistant to superintendent at 22 and the mentality that carried him through every step of his career. Why he believes your network is the single most powerful tool in landing your next opportunity, and how he has intentionally built it over 27 years. What it was really like to navigate Valhalla through COVID, staffing shortages, and a complete fairway and tee renovation, and why patience in building the right team made all the difference. The importance of engaging assistants and AITs in leadership decisions, green committee exposure, and member interactions, and why more superintendents should be doing this. What the job search actually looks like when you leave a high-profile role: the nerves, the strategy, and the mindset shifts required to stay focused. How John is discovering an entirely new side of the turf industry through his role at Simplot, and why superintendents may be limiting themselves by thinking there's only one path. The honest conversation about professional identity: what happens when your job title is how others define you, and why separating the two matters.

The future of the chain restaurant is... chicken? I learned so much from this conversation with food systems (and chain restaurant) expert Austin Frerick — from how Sysco maintains its restaurant supremacy (and what Sysco "tastes" like) to which chain restaurants have significantly changed in quality (Wendy's) and are on the verge of extinction (also Wendy's). Did you know what makes a chain restaurant resistant to suckage? The answer will and will not surprise you! This was such a fun, enlightening conversation — the sort that you'll think about every time you eat in or drive past a chain restaurant — and does exactly what we always hope for a Culture Study episode: it'll make you think a lot more about the (very everyday, very unassuming) world around you.

In this episode I sit down with Katie Simplot, founder of Everything Algins, Reiki Master, and near-death experience (NDE) survivor. Katie shares her profound journey to the other side and the deep sense of clarity, peace, and universal connection she experienced beyond this life. Since returning, she has carried a transformative knowing: that when we surrender to the natural flow of life, everything truly aligns. We explore what it felt like to come back into the physical world with this expanded awareness, and how she learned to navigate a reality that often moves against that flow.

Send us a textWhen J.R. Simplot met with Ray Kroc (McDonalds) and sold him on the idea of “consistent” frozen Idaho potatoes, the Simplot company was headed for big things. A second encounter with a guano (bat poop) salesman, led to an experiment that would inspire Simplot to build a large fertilizer business. And finally, Olympian Jackie Joyner-Kersee (Flo Jo) would help jump start the J.R. Simplot Games as one of the largest indoor high school track meets in the nation.These are the stories told by Rick Phillips who personally knew J.R. Simplot and worked as his Manager of Public Affairs for the past 34 years before recently retiring. He gives a fun and insightful look into what built this company and how Mr. Simplot's personal connection to people was his secret to success.

The Simplot Games of Pocatello Idaho are happening on Feb 20-22 along with the Dick Fosbury Breakfast to be held on Feb 21. Cody Miller interviewed Executive director Kristi Borgholthaus

This quarter of the Future of Agriculture podcast is made possible by Case IH: https://www.caseih.com/en-us/unitedstatesJ.R. Simplot: A billion the hard way by Louie AtteberySimplot company website“During World War II, Jack Simplot's plants produced thirty-three million pounds of dehydrated potatoes and five million pounds of dehydrated onion to fuel America's fighting men and women. In the 1960s, he helped McDonald's chief Ray Kroc turn the french fry into a national staple. In the 1980s, the Idaho farm boy with the eighth grade education played a major role in making the personal computer a household word. And as a new century begins, the company and the man show little sign of resting on the laurels.”That is from the book J.R. Simplot: A Billion the Hard Way by Louie Attebery which tells the incredible life story of J.R. Simplot, more commonly known as Jack Simplot. Today Simplot is a household name for those of us in agribusiness. The diversified global company has business interests in farming, ranching and cattle production, food processing, food brands, phosphate mining, fertilizer manufacturing, and other enterprises related to agriculture. But the humble beginnings it came from and the incredible evolution of the company has a lot of insights for all of us interested in the future of agriculture and is the focus of today's history of agriculture episode. Brought to you by Case IH: Case IH designs,engineers and produces cutting-edge farm equipment based on a comprehensive understanding of farmers' needs, wants and challenges, integrating these insights into their development and manufacturing.For example, take their Model Year 25 Magnum tractor. The new Magnum is purposefully designed to answer farmers' needs in every design and engineering choice. Improved horsepower for pulling heavier loads, faster. Bundled, integrated and ready-to-go precision tech for greater accuracy in the field. And a transmission farmers can tweak for improved control and performance in different tasks. That kind of design thinking is exactly where the future of ag is headed, and that's why you'll be hearing me talk to the folks at Case IH at different points throughout this quarter about what they do and how they're working to push the ag forward.

HerdFlex beef embryos are great tool for dairies that are taking advantage of the beef on dairy trend. Embryos offer more than obtaining calves with a higher market value.

The four companies that produce the overwhelming majority of the U.S.'s frozen potato products conspired to fix prices in recent years, according to a series of newly filed lawsuits.Five antitrust suits, the Washington Post reports, were filed in an Illinois federal court in recent days against Lamb Weston, J.R. Simplot, McCain Foods and Cavendish Farms. Combined, those companies control more than 95% of the market for french fries and other frozen potato products.Download and listen to the audio version below and click here to subscribe to the Today in Manufacturing podcast.

Dairy farmers are reaping the benefits of current high prices for dairy-beef crossbred calves thanks to historically lower cattle replacements and strong beef demand. Opportunities for beef-on-dairy strategies remain strong, especially beef embryo-based programs. Feeders and packers seek uniformity between animals and efficient growth. They are willing to reward dairies for these efforts, at least while the national beef herd rebuilds following years of drought, wildfires, and economic hardships. Simplot's Jeremy Howard and Select Sires Lauren Kimble, discuss the market outlook and how it might affect your beef on-dairy programs. This episode is sponsored by Simplot Animal Sciences.

Homelessness – and the provision of related services – has evolved into a substantial economic sector. While services are primarily provided by nonprofits, funding starts at the federal level and flows from federal, state, and local grantors into the nonprofit space. The funding and services are distributed through a vast national network of local nonprofit organizations, with Arizona alone hosting as many as 167 such entities. CSI estimates that the total nonprofit workforce dedicated to alleviating homelessness in Arizona is as high as 51,000 employees and volunteers. For context, the state's largest private organization employs about 45,000 people. CSI estimates that statewide spending in Arizona is approximately $933 million to $1.1 billion annually on shelter, treatment, food, and other support services for people experiencing homelessness. According to the latest Point-in-Time counts, today there are more than 14,000 (Estimate 1, Appendix B) people experiencing homelessness in Arizona, and another 9,600 estimated to be in Permanent Supportive Housing. You can find our full report on the topic, titled Homelessness Spending Tops $1 Billion in Arizona here. On this episode of Common Sense Digest, our Chairman and Host Earl Wright welcomes Tim Simplot, former director of the Arizona Department of Housing unpack the issues many complexities ranging from a myopic focus on "housing first" to challenges for law enforcement.
