Podcasts about Smithfield

At the turn of the twentieth century, Selma, North Carolina was the biggest town in Johnston County. Bigger than Smithfield. The county seat. A town that had existed since 1777.Selma beat it — in thirty-three years — starting from a railroad station and a grid of lots.Then a beetle crossed the Rio Grande. And cotton prices fell to five cents a pound. And three mills closed. And by 1992, there were twenty-five empty buildings on Raiford Street, and a town manager who couldn't sleep.What do you do when the thing that made you is gone?

Gertrude Weil defied NC's 1920 "NO" on women's votes—mailed fire to an unknown Smithfield ally: "THINK RATIFICATION. Make us the PERFECT 36th!" Goldsboro's Jewish firebrand swam first into segregated pools at 80, battled 50 years unbowed. State caved 51 years late. She died 24 days after. Who in JoCo answered her call?

Roger sits down with Omar from Talkin' Tacos to unpack the systems, leadership, and operational discipline that fueled their growth. This is not a story about luck.

In this episode of The Rainmaker Podcast, Gui Costin sits down with Dominica Ribeiro, Chief Marketing and Distribution Officer at Breckinridge Capital Advisors, the legendary asset manager based in Boston. The conversation covers Dominica's non-traditional career path, the structure and discipline of Breckinridge's distribution team, and the leadership philosophy that has shaped how she runs sales and marketing as a single integrated function.Dominica started full-time in the industry directly out of high school at Putnam Investments, working through her associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees while building her career. After 5 years at Putnam, she spent 14 years at Fidelity, including a long stretch at Pyramis Global Advisors in Smithfield, Rhode Island, where she worked institutional marketing in lockstep with the distribution team. That alignment of marketing and sales, unusual in the industry, became the foundation for her current role at Breckinridge, where both functions sit under her leadership.Breckinridge is a 30+ years old independent asset manager with roughly $55 billion in AUM (as of 3/31/26) and 89 employees across offices in Boston and San Diego. The firm specializes in investment-grade fixed income and equity income portfolios delivered through customized separately managed accounts. Despite its size, the firm operates with a deliberate boutique feel, and Dominica's 20-person distribution and marketing team is structured to reinforce that. She walks Gui through how the team is organized, two regions split east and west of the Mississippi, with specialized state-level coverage, plus dedicated private wealth, institutional, national accounts, and distribution strategy teams.A key theme of the conversation is continuity of relationship. Breckinridge does not hand prospects off from sales to a separate relationship management team. The same person who brings the client in stays with them through quarterly updates and ongoing engagement, which Dominica believes drives better retention and cross-sell. That continuity is reinforced by a transparent scorecard that incentivizes business development, retention, execution, and collaboration, shared with the team in January so reps know exactly how they will be measured.Dominica is candid about CRM implementation. Breckinridge uses Salesforce, and her advice to boutique managers considering a CRM rollout is simple: don't do it without a dedicated sales enablement or operations resource. The cost only pays off when someone is responsible for data discipline and reporting consistency. Gui shares how Dakota has integrated Slack, Salesforce, and Claude to make meeting note capture nearly frictionless, eliminating the most common source of CRM data decay.The conversation closes on leadership. Dominica describes herself as leading with empathy while holding a high bar, direct when the team falls short, transparent about expectations, and clear that proactive communication is non-negotiable. Her advice to early-career salespeople is to trust their gut and communicate constantly, even in internal-facing roles. Looking ahead, she names focus as her biggest challenge: at 89 employees, the firm has to be disciplined about where it invests its time, talent, and resources, and the feedback loop from clients and prospects is what drives those decisions.Tired of chasing outdated leads?

Chris Athavle Romans 7:5-6 Hosea 2:16-23 Serve in the new way of the Holy Spirit!

I never thought I'd be glued to my screen at 6 AM on April 22, 2026, watching the legal world spin around President Donald Trump like a whirlwind, but here we are, listeners. Just yesterday, on April 21, the U.S. Department of Justice dropped a bombshell in Montgomery, Alabama—a federal grand jury indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel announced it from Washington, with the FBI and IRS Criminal Investigation leading the probe. Two forfeiture actions aim to claw back the alleged proceeds, though it's all allegations for now, and a conviction could strip away their ill-gotten gains, according to the Justice Department's press release.But that's not all keeping Trump's legal orbit buzzing these past few days. Shift over to the Supreme Court, where his Executive Order 14160—aimed at redefining birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment—is hanging by a thread. SCOTUSblog reports that during two hours of oral arguments in Trump v. Barbara last week, justices gave the administration's push an icy stare, hinging on a novel take on "domicile." The government argues a mother's domicile should limit citizenship for kids born on U.S. soil, but without that buy-in, the order likely crumbles. Rutgers Law School professors predict a pivotal ruling this term, clashing with the Immigration and Nationality Act, and we might not hear until late June.Meanwhile, Trump's immigration enforcement machine keeps humming. Vasquez Law in Smithfield, North Carolina, details how fresh 2026 executive orders ramp up electronic monitoring, tighten green card rules for applicants, and boost local-federal cop cooperation from Florida to nationwide. Dreamers and undocumented folks face expedited removals, prioritized by public safety risks—policies echoing back to 2016 but supercharged now to protect Americans, as their blog outlines in a grim timeline from initial encounters to appeals dragging months.And don't sleep on the DOL front—Mayer Brown notes that on April 15, the Department of Labor released Technical Release 2026-01, sparked by Trump's December 2025 executive order. It cracks down on ERISA retirement plans' proxy voting and advisory services, ensuring fiduciary duty aligns with worker interests.From Alabama indictments to Supreme Court showdowns, Trump's legal moves are reshaping enforcement, citizenship, and more, proving the past week's drama is just the latest chapter.

It's 1779. You live in Smithfield, North Carolina — population: several dozen, ambitions: modest. Then one Thursday morning, the entire government of North Carolina comes riding down the road. All of it. And it needs a place to sleep. Running on Empty — the story of the time the state ran out of options and showed up unannounced in a two-year-old town.

Hazel Baker introduces Smithfield (West Smithfield near St Bartholomew's Hospital and Smithfield Meat Market) as a deceptively ordinary open space that for centuries served both as a major market/fairground and a prominent execution site used to project state and church power. With tour guide Maria Alexe's commentary, the episode traces Smithfield's execution history from William Wallace's hanging, drawing and quartering in 1305 to the last clearly documented burning in 1612, noting its particular association with heresy burnings and high-profile traitors, especially the Marian burnings under Mary I (about 48 at Smithfield, per Foxe). It highlights John Foxe's shaping of Protestant martyr memory through accounts such as John Rogers and Anne Askew, describes execution methods including hanging, burning, quartering and boiling (Richard Rouse in 1531; Margaret Davy in 1547), and explains the crowd spectacle, commerce, and the risk of creating martyrs. It ends by identifying surviving local traces—St Bartholomew the Great, the gateway, street names like Cloth Fair, and modern contrasts—and invites listeners to related walking tours.

Back again! On the show this week we're joined by South Dakota Searchlight reporter John Hult and South Dakota Chamber CEO Ryan Budmayr for a wide-ranging episode on what did—and didn't—happen in Pierre this session. Plug in as we talk about prison reform that stalled out, what lawmakers avoided tackling, the reality of rehabilitation efforts, and how campaign politics may be shaping those decisions. We also get into economic development, TIF changes, data center incentives that didn't make it, property tax shakeups, shifting the tax burden, and what it all means for businesses and communities across the state.Plus we dive into Sioux Falls' massive upcoming transformation with the Smithfield move, what doubling downtown could look like, the politics behind big development projects, and how local leadership is navigating it all. And of course, we wrap with campaign season chatter, candidate announcements, legislative leftovers, and the always important debate… best burgers in South Dakota.@DakotaTownHall @Jakeshoenbeck @MurdocJ Hosted on Acast.

In 1893, the American economy collapsed — and Johnston County's cotton farmers watched decades of work evaporate at six cents a pound. What came next was a gamble: build a curing barn you'd never operated, raise a crop you'd never grown, and sell it at an auction that didn't yet exist in your county. This is the story of how the Panic of 1893 killed King Cotton, how a sleeping blacksmith accidentally invented bright leaf tobacco, and how one desperate pivot in 1898 built nearly everything you see in Smithfield today.

Back again! On the show this week we are joined by Campaign Manager Ian Fury, Pat Powers of South Dakota War College and Sioux Falls City Council candidate James Oppenheimer for a packed episode on city politics and campaign season chaos. Plug in as we talk about James' run for Sioux Falls City Council, the future of downtown, the massive Smithfield redevelopment, TIF debates, data centers, public safety, affordable housing, family-focused growth, the Sioux Falls mayor's race, and what the city could look like in the next 5 to 10 years. Plus Pat jumps in for a full South Dakota politics rundown with court week drama, Shad Olson, candidate DUI trouble, a flood of new legislative filings, major Senate primaries, PUC buzz, governor's race ripple effects, campaign season madness, and of course… the best burgers in South Dakota.@DakotaTownHall@Jakeshoenbeck@MurdocJ Hosted on Acast.

Manchester in the mid-2010s was an electric period in the city's brewing history, with several modern brewing trailblazers—including Track and Cloudwater—exploding onto the scene. Before either of them existed, however, there was Blackjack, which has been quietly plugging away with its wonderful beer since 2012.  Over the years they've established themselves not simply as a well-respected brewery and taproom, but through the opening and adoption of several venues around Greater Manchester. These now include Station Hop in Levenshulme, their bars at Mackie Mayor and Altrincham Market, and at their fantastic pub on Swan Street, the Smithfield Market Tavern—or simply ‘The Tav' to its regulars.  It's never been Blackjack's style to boast about their achievements, however, so at the end of last year I decided to do a bit of that for them. Over the summer their lager program was, to put it modestly, having a moment. During this time I became completely enthralled by their Italian Pilsner, In Simpatico, a beer that possesses the crisp, structured body of a pilsner, and a hefty dose of aromatic Enigma hops, planting it somewhere between a lager and a pale ale. Such was its quality, I decided to name it as one of my top ten beers of the year in 2025.  Fast forward a couple of months, and I get a call from the brewery inviting me down for the canning of a new batch. Unable to resist the offer of trying the beer fresh off the line, I headed down to the brewery. Afterwards I settled in at the Smithfield with Blackjack's managing director Jon Hartley, plus team members George Charlton, Matt Drage and Jack Williams, for a chat about the past, present and future of Blackjack Brew Co.  We're able to produce The Pellicle Podcast thanks to our Patreon subscribers, and our sponsor Get ‘Er Brewed.

Asif Khan is a world-renowned architect and designer whose work inspired a recent headline – ‘is there anything Asif Khan can't transform?'. His current projects include the re-invention of the former Smithfield meat market into the new London Museum, and the extensive renewal of the Barbican Centre. Further afield, in Kazakhstan, he's turned a vast former Soviet cinema into a new cultural centre. He opened his own studio in 2007, and has designed exhibitions, temporary pavilions and installations around the world. He views architecture as a multidisciplinary field, bringing together design, science and art. His musical choices include Chopin, Shostakovich, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Brian Eno.Producer: Katy Hickman

Today's episode breaks down Christian Briggs' Part One of his policy paper, "China's Strategic Assault on Dollar Hegemony Through Banking Infrastructure, Critical Mineral Dominance, and the Architecture of De-Dollarization - Part 3". We turn the volume up to maximum—and it's not just about de-dollarization anymore. This episode argues the next global order won't be decided by speeches or sanctions, but by minerals, supply chains, and quantum supremacy. Whoever controls the metals that power AI, weapons systems, and next-generation computing will control the future—economically, militarily, and technologically.The episode opens with Venezuela—the “quiet” intervention that instantly rewired the chessboard. China poured $60B+ into Venezuela for gold, resources, and leverage in the Western Hemisphere… but the core lesson is brutal: money doesn't buy security. A U.S. military operation executed in hours erased two decades of Chinese positioning overnight. That shockwave, the host argues, changes every Latin American calculation going forward: partnering with Beijing doesn't protect you when U.S. core interests are engaged.From there, the focus shifts to the true war: strategic commodity control. Coltan and tantalum—used in capacitors that sit inside everything from smartphones to fighter jets—are framed as the hidden backbone of modern defense. If the U.S. controls key coltan flows and builds domestic processing, dependency on Chinese bottlenecks can be reduced over a 5–10 year horizon. But time is the enemy.The episode then widens the lens: China's commodity strategy isn't only minerals—it's food. With acquisitions like Syngenta and Smithfield, plus global trading expansion through COFCO, China is building leverage across seeds, pork, soybeans, palm oil, sugar, shipping lanes, and ports. The warning is clear: food leverage can be as decisive as energy or rare earths.Then comes the terrifying scenario planning: if China triggers a full rare-earth cutoff, the episode claims U.S. defense production faces a countdown—six to eighteen months depending on the system. F-35 production, precision munitions, shipbuilding, electronics, clean energy manufacturing—everything cascades. The same applies to industrial production: one cutoff ripples through every sector because supply chains are interconnected and brittle.The episode also highlights China's explosive rise in autos—surpassing Japan as the world's largest vehicle seller—built on EV dominance and vertically integrated battery supply chains. Tariffs may slow the invasion, but they don't close the competitiveness gap.Finally, the podcast unveils “legal warfare”: WTO pressure campaigns, anti-suit injunctions, arbitration traps, retaliation lists, and compliance choke points designed to box America in while China stays free. And it ends with the biggest twist of all: Washington may be rebuilding dollar dominance not through oil—but through a new Mineral-Dollar system—Project Vault, mineral price floors, trade blocks, and an NSC-level command structure treating supply chains like a theater of war.

Restaurant Rockstars Academy Built for restaurant owners who want better margins, trained teams, and systems that actually work.

If I owned your restaurant in 2026, here's exactly what I'd fix first—and why it matters now more than ever. In this episode, I break down the Restaurant Operator Playbook for the year ahead, focusing on the systems, leadership, and profit drivers that separate struggling restaurants from those that thrive.

The podcast also highlights the important roles of Smithfield and Leadenhall markets in providing festive foods, describing their transformations over the centuries and their lasting impact on London's culinary culture.

Smithfield rebels' gesture of defiance on the main stagecoach route caused shock and outrage, but nobody was outraged enough to risk being shot over it; so the flag waved there until federal troops arrived and confiscated it. (Franklin, Lane County; 1860s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1502a.rebel-flag-over-oregon.324.html)

This week, we're taking a break from our series on the 1798 Rebellion for a fascinating conversation about the Great Famine in Dublin and why this key chapter in the city's history has been largely forgotten.When most people think of the Great Hunger, they picture rural Ireland and the suffering along the Atlantic coast. For years, it was widely believed that Dublin escaped the worst of the Famine. But is that really the case?In this episode, I'm joined by Dublin historian Maria Ball, who shares her unique insights into how the Famine impacted the capital and why its story has faded from memory. Drawing on her own family's history in the Smithfield tenements, Maria reveals the hidden struggles faced by Dubliners during the 1840s. She also explains how institutions like the city workhouses and the Lock Hospital (which treated venereal disease) were overwhelmed during the crisis.Maria is also involved in organising a history festival in Cabra this week - you can find out more here.Sound by Kate Dunlea.
