In this explosive episode of Talk Dirt To Me, we're pulling no punches. We kick things off with our BIGGEST GIVEAWAY EVER, loaded with incredible gear from AgGear, Agzaga, Sorinex, Field Ethos, and Tacticalories.  Plus a badass opportunity to join us in-studio as a guest and grab dinner with the crew. Then we dive headfirst into the controversy rocking the cattle world; why is the American Angus Association under fire for taking a grant from Jeff Bezos? Is it a smart move, or did they just sell out America's ranchers? We also break down Senator Mike Lee's OFF Act, a bold proposal to end mandatory checkoff programs. Is it the future of farming freedom, or a wolf in sheep's clothing? And things take a dark turn as we explore a shocking act of agroterrorism. Two Chinese nationals caught smuggling a dangerous fungus into the U.S. A threat that could have devastated our entire ag infrastructure.

In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Britt Achterhoff goes even deeper into the life experiences that shaped her personal and professional path. She opens up about one of the most difficult periods of her life—tearing her ACL while her father was terminally ill and struggling academically due to undiagnosed ADHD. Through all of this, one person stood solid in her corner: her strength coach, Dennis “D Love” Love. Britt credits him with not only giving her a place to belong, but also with showing her what leadership, mentorship, and care truly look like. That pivotal support became the root of her passion for the industry and her mission to make an impact beyond equipment sales. Britt also reflects on how her experiences—from student leadership to moments of being the only woman in high-level performance meetings—have uniquely positioned her to lead from a place of empathy and real-world perspective. She discusses her “existential career crisis” after becoming a mom of two, and how that inspired her to create professional development conversations for coaches that center on real life—not just sets and reps. This episode is a raw reminder that what happens off the field or outside the weight room often shapes us the most, and Britt's story is a powerful call to action for supporting the whole person—not just the professional title. Big thanks to podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible.

A former Clemson soccer player, Britt reflects on how her love for the weight room and a chance encounter during a facility renovation launched her into the strength and conditioning industry—though not in the traditional coaching sense. Instead, she carved out her path on the vendor side, traveling across the Southeast, immersing herself in the strength community, and earning respect through grit, relationships, and a deep passion for the field. Her story is one of relentless work ethic, identity exploration, and embracing the messy parts of career growth, especially as a young woman in a male-dominated space. Britt also opens up about how motherhood reshaped her perspective on work, life, and purpose. As her role evolved from equipment sales to business development, she found herself craving more meaningful impact—and more balance.
