**Jeep Talk Show: Grand Cherokee Airbag Recall, Self-Driving Jeeps, V8 Comeback Rumors & More!** In this episode, Tony and Josh dive into the latest Jeep news and rumors. We break down the massive new Grand Cherokee WL airbag recall (over 400,000 units), discuss the broader airbag industry issues, and talk about off-road implications and disabling airbags on the trail. We also explore Stellantis' self-driving ambitions with the STLA AutoDrive platform, compare it to Tesla Robotaxis and Waymo, and debate the future of autonomous off-roading in Jeeps. Plus, exciting rumors about the possible return of high-performance V8s — Hellcat, SRT, and Trackhawk models in the Grand Cherokee (and maybe even the Cherokee) — and why an inline-6 (Hurricane) in the Wrangler makes total sense. Josh teases his new "FUU" rant segment, and we wrap with plenty of Jeep talk, laughs, and real talk about what Jeepers actually want. **Topics:** - Grand Cherokee airbag recall & safety - Self-driving tech & off-road autonomy challenges - V8 revival rumors (Trackhawk, Hellcat, SRT) - Inline-6 Hurricane engine possibilities in Wrangler - Pay-to-play features & future of Jeep tech 00:00 Zoom Background Mishaps 01:02 Grand Cherokee Airbag Recall 07:25 Topic Shift and Wrap-up 07:46 Research on Self-Driving Jeeps 11:46 Off‑Road Autonomy Challenges 14:11 Stellantis AutoDrive Status 15:28 Cost of Advanced Features 16:22 Join the Jeep Discord 16:37 Pay‑To‑Play Feature Model 17:10 Tip Screen Meme 17:24 Pay‑To‑Play Services Discussion 18:35 Autonomous Travel Stress Relief 19:28 Self‑Driving Failure Stories 20:16 Driver Confusion with Autonomy 20:27 Waymo Issues and Powertrain Rumors 26:42 Show Outro and Teasers 34:08 Host Reflections and New Segment 35:40 Nicky G's Closing Banter Subscribe for more Jeep news, interviews, trail talk, and builds!

Managing Cattle & Grass In A Drought It is that time of year that many producers are moving cattle to summer grazing. But drought is plaguing many and it continues to worsen. According to drought.gov, as of May 5th, 60.92% of the country is experiencing moderate to exceptional drought, largely concentrated in the Southeast, High Plains, and West. There are strategies for managing drought, or I should say how we manage grass and forage uptake in the cowherd to get through drought. Trevor Burian from Killdeer North Dakota joins us today. Trevor has been a student of grazing, plant management, regenerative ag, and cattle efficiency and profitability his entire life. Cattle Industry News China & U.S. Beef Trade According to Derrell Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist, the role of China in global beef markets has changed rapidly in the last two decades. China, including Hong Kong, was not a player at all in global beef markets as little as 15 years ago but has risen rapidly to become the largest beef importer in the last decade. For many years, China was a large beef producing and consuming country but had almost no presence in global beef markets. Starting about 2013, rising beef consumption in China began to exceed domestic beef production, leading for the first time to significant beef imports. Although per capita beef consumption in China remains relatively low — roughly 13 pounds compared to 59 pounds in the U.S. — the large population means that small increases in beef consumption represent large amounts of beef in total. According to the U.S. Meat Export Federation President CEO Dan Halstrom, China's reentry into the market for U.S. beef exports will have a significant and rapid price feedback to the American industry from other markets. He called it a “hidden benefit” from China's renewal of registrations for U.S. beef facilities as well as hoped-for resolution of suspensions of a significant number of plants. Most of the registrations were abruptly declared expired in March 2025 before being listed as renewed last week following a meeting in Beijing between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping.

Paxton said the investigation would be conducted alongside a separate antitrust probe announced by the U.S. Department of Justice under President Donald Trump's administration. The investigation is focused on the highly concentrated beef packing sector, where four companies — JBS S.A., Tyson Fresh Meats, Cargill and National Beef Packing Co. — collectively control more than 85% of U.S. beef processing capacity, according to Paxton's office. The attorney general cited reports alleging the companies may have used their market power to suppress cattle prices paid to ranchers while increasing beef prices for consumers.

USDA says sterile fly dispersal efforts are currently concentrated along the Gulf coast of northern Mexico, with additional drops occurring within roughly 50 miles of the Texas border. Officials say the agency is relying heavily on predictive modeling and real-time surveillance data to determine where those flies are deployed. USDA says those decisions are being made in coordination with the agency's Agricultural Research Service, using predictive analytics designed to anticipate where the pest could spread next, not simply where cases are currently confirmed. REFERENCE: https://www.rfdtv.com/usda-expands-new-world-screwworm-surveillance-as-cases-rise-in-mexico-and-sterile-fly-supply-stays-limited U.S. Beef Imports Projected To Top 6 Billion Pounds U.S. Beef Imports are projected to top 6 billion pounds for the first time in history — Up 166% Since 2010. Last week's USDA WASDE report projected 2026 U.S. beef imports at 6.1 billion pounds, the highest level in history and the first time beef imports have ever exceeded 6 billion pounds. The projection would mark an increase of 638 million pounds, or 11.7%, from 2025 levels and continue a trend that has seen beef imports increase every year since 2017. Since 2010, U.S. beef imports have climbed from 2.3 billion pounds to more than 6.1 billion pounds, an increase of roughly 3.8 billion pounds, or nearly 166%. The sharp rise in imports has coincided with declining U.S. cattle inventories and historically tight domestic beef supplies. Retail Beef Prices Rocket Higher Retail beef prices continued their sharp climb in April as all 12 major beef categories increased from March levels, with 9 of the 12 cuts establishing new all-time record highs. The Retail Beef Price Composite increased from $8.93/lb in March to a record $9.28/lb in April, rising $0.35/lb in just one month. Ground beef prices continued pushing higher across every category. Ground Chuck increased from $6.68 to a record $6.92/lb, while Ground Beef climbed from $6.70 to $6.90/lb. Lean & Extra Lean Ground Beef jumped $0.31 to a record $8.51/lb, and All Uncooked Ground Beef increased to a record $7.06/lb. Roast values posted some of the largest monthly increases. Chuck Roast, USDA Choice Boneless surged $0.66 to a record $9.50/lb, while Round Roast, Choice Boneless climbed $0.51 to a record $8.98/lb. Only three categories failed to establish new all-time highs during April. Round Steak, USDA Choice increased from $9.61 to $9.83/lb but remained below its February 2026 record high of $10.09/lb. Beef for Stew, Boneless rose from $8.41 to $8.65/lb but stayed below its November 2025 record of $9.172/lb. All Uncooked Other Beef increased from $7.68 to $7.92/lb, still below its November 2025 record high of $8.20/lb.

The Wranglers got on the board first as quarterback Anthony Garrett orchestrated a scoring drive that ended with running back Benji Omayebu powering in for a 1-yard rushing score. Iowa answered quickly, but the Wranglers continued to excel offensively throughout the first half. Garrett settled into rhythm early, spreading the ball efficiently to...

Trevor has been a student of grazing, plant management, regenerative ag, and cattle efficiency and profitability his entire life. Cattle Industry News Tyson's Multi-Million-Dollar Beef Settlement A federal judge granted preliminary approval to a proposed $47 million class action settlement between Tyson Foods and commercial and institutional indirect purchaser plaintiffs in the ongoing cattle and beef antitrust litigation. An order filed in the middle of last week approved preliminary certification of a settlement class covering entities in the United States that indirectly purchased certain raw beef products sold by defendants between Jan. 1, 2015, and May 6, 2026, for use in commercial food preparation. The settlement involves Tyson Foods Inc. and Tyson Fresh Meats Inc. Tyson did not oppose the motion for preliminary approval. The plaintiffs in the case include restaurants, catering companies and other foodservice operators alleging anticompetitive conduct in the fed cattle and beef markets. The approval comes on the heels of the DOJ's doubling down on an ongoing investigation into Tyson, JBS, National Beef and Cargill. The DOJ and USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins accused the “Big Four” of colluding to artificially raise beef prices.

March beef exports were down 11% from a year ago, while export value fell 8%. Shipments increased year-over-year to Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Indonesia, while exports to South Korea and Taiwan were steady. However, exports to China remained minimal and shipments also trailed year-ago levels to Japan and the Middle East. Excluding China, March beef export volume increased 4% from a year ago while value climbed 8%.

The moves by Mexico, the largest market for US pork exports, come a week after the discovery of pseudorabies in a small commercial pig operation in Iowa and a farm in Texas where the infected animals originated, and other trade partners appear to be responding as well. The confirmation of pseudorabies at a small swine facility in Iowa was the first commercial outbreak since 2004, when the US deemed the virus eradicated from the commercial swine industry. The virus can, however, still be found in some feral swine populations, and there is occasional spillover of infection to outdoor herds where contact with feral swine is possible. USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service said initial traceback from the Iowa herd indicated that affected boars came from an outdoor facility in Texas.

Cattle Industry News Florida Restricts Animal Imports From Texas A dangerous livestock pest that hasn't been seen in the United States for years is raising new concerns—this time along the southern border. The New World screwworm is a parasitic fly whose larvae feed on the living flesh of animals, most often cattle. While infections in humans are rare, they can be serious—and in extreme cases, even fatal. Right now, there are no confirmed cases in the U.S. But Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller says a case has been detected just across the border about 60 miles south of Texas. That proximity is enough to trigger action more than a thousand miles away. Florida officials are now tightening restrictions on livestock coming from six counties in South Texas: Zapata, Jim Hogg, Starr, Hidalgo, Webb, and Brooks counties. Any animals brought in from those areas must undergo additional veterinary inspections and, if needed, treatment before entering the state. Florida Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson says the state is taking no chances. He warned that if the screwworm takes hold, it could have serious economic and animal health consequences. He's also urging ranchers, veterinarians, and animal health workers to stay alert and report anything unusual right away. Here's how the pest works: adult flies lay eggs in open wounds or natural openings on an animal's body. When those eggs hatch, the larvae—commonly known as maggots—burrow into the tissue and begin feeding. According to the CDC, the infestation can worsen quickly if not treated. Texas officials say Florida's response makes sense. The state dealt with a screwworm outbreak in the past, and the memory of that damage still lingers. Meanwhile, as a precaution, the U.S. has shut down livestock trade through ports of entry along the southern border. There are also long-term plans in motion to stop the pest before it spreads. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is building a sterile fly production facility at Moore Air Base in Edinburg, Texas. The idea is to release sterilized male flies into the wild. Since female screwworms mate only once, this strategy helps prevent reproduction and gradually reduces the population. That facility is expected to be up and running by November of 2027. For now, officials say vigilance is key. Even without confirmed cases in the U.S., the threat is close enough to be taken seriously. REFERENCE: https://www.ktep.org/2026-04-27/florida-is-restricting-animal-imports-from-texas-amid-screwworm-threat FAIR Labels Act Ensures Transparent Alt Protein Labeling Representatives from Missouri, Texas, Nebraska, Idaho and Wisconsin, reintroduced the Fair and Accurate Ingredient Representation on Labels (FAIR Labels) Act in the House to add transparency in food labeling for alternative protein products. The legislation will provide consumers with clear and accurate information about plant-based and cell-cultivated protein products when making purchasing decisions. Sens. Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.) and John Fetterman (D-Pa.) sponsored the Senate version of the bill. The FAIR Labels Act: Defines "cell-cultivated" and "plant-based alternative" protein products to help consumers easily identify these products. Provides a clear definition of cell-cultivated protein products to ensure labels accurately reflect lab-grown food sources. Requires product labels to use terms like "cell cultivated" or "plant based" and to bear a clear disclaimer if the product does not contain meat or poultry or was not derived from a live animal. Directs the U.S. Department of Agriculture to oversee the labeling of these products, working alongside the Food & Drug Administration to maintain product inspection standards. Confirms the shared jurisdiction of FDA and USDA in overseeing cell-cultivated protein products, and requires the secretaries of agriculture and health and human services to jointly revise their 2019 current memorandum of understanding. NCBA President and Virginia cattle producer Gene Copenhaver said that currently, there is no federal statute for labeling cell-cultivated protein products in the marketplace. For far too long, lab-grown protein companies have exploited the use of terms like ‘meat' and ‘beef' to describe their products, creating the potential for consumer confusion through misleading marketing. He went on to say that “The FAIR Labels Act will establish a federal guideline for labeling cell-cultivated and plant-based alternative protein products, ensuring consumers can easily differentiate these products from real beef products produced by U.S. cattlemen and cattlewomen.” REFERENCE: https://www.feedstuffs.com/policy/fair-labels-act-ensures-transparent-alt-protein-labeling Pseudorabies In Iowa & Texas For the first time since being eradicated in the U.S. Commercial swine herds in 2004, pseudorabies (PRV) have been confirmed in herds in Iowa and Texas (Shike, 2026). A small commercial swine facility in Iowa was confirmed to have positive cases of PRV by the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the National Veterinary Services Laboratories during routine testing. Officials at APHIS, in collaboration with the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and the Texas Animal Health Commission, revealed that five affected boars in the Iowa facility originated from an outdoor production site in Texas (Shike, 2026). It is believed that the initial infection on the outdoor production site in Texas may have been a result of unintentional contact with feral swine. Pseudorabies virus was eradicated from the U.S. commercial swine herd in 2004. However, it is critically important to remember that PRV is endemic in the feral swine populations around the U.S. An APHIS release stated, “Pseudorabies is still found in wild or feral swine populations, which remain a potential threat of exposure for domestic pigs.” REFERENCE: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/news/agency-announcements/usda-confirms-pseudorabies-swine-herds-iowa-texas https://extension.sdstate.edu/pseudorabies-detected-iowa-and-texas-swine-farms-prevention-tips-clinical-signs-and-testing Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Steve Kenyon - The World Famous Miles City Bucking Horse Sale https://buckinghorsesale.com/ Follow On Facebook: @BuckingHorseSale Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 4 (5.6) Today we say goodbye to media titan Ted Turner, who died at 87. From a tough Savannah upbringing and Brown sailing captain to taking over the family business at 24 after his dad’s suicide, he won the 1977 America’s Cup before launching CNN, creating 24-hour news, owning the Braves, and marrying Jane Fonda. What a ride. In local news, a San Bernardino man was busted in Chino for driving a rigged vehicle stuffed with extra gas and over 80 skimming devices. Could this be the end for LeBron in LA? The Lakers got crushed 108-90 by OKC last night. And yes, tomato fraud is real — two Californians are suing Cento over fake “San Marzano” cans. Plus, big MacArthur Park drug sweep: LAPD and DEA arrested 18 dealers and seized 19 kilos of fentanyl. What does Mayor Karen Bass think of all this?

Cattle Industry News Cattle Herd Rebuilding & Drought These are the best of times for cow-calf producers, at least on paper. The CME feeder cattle index, which tracks the price of feeder cattle at various auctions, is currently 28% higher than a year ago. Even when adjusting for inflation, current feeder cattle prices are almost 20% higher than the previous cyclical peak in 2014. However, the dramatic increase in cow-calf returns has not caused producers to retain more heifers for cow herd replacement. The sharp jump in returns in 2014 resulted in a 7% increase in beef cow replacement heifers to start the new year. Last year may have been the best on record for producer returns, but replacement heifers increased just 0.4%, with the beef cow replacements up less than 1%. The Livestock Market Information Center or LMIC expects cow-calf producer returns to be even better in 2026 and 2027. The surge in futures has caused LMIC to raise calculated returns for 2026 by 32% vs. October, while returns for 2027 are now 54% higher than estimated six months ago, at nearly $1,100/cow. There is certainly interest on the part of producers to invest in their operations, but there are several critical hurdles. The main one is drought. We do not yet have a full reading of pasture conditions, but expectations are that conditions are far worse than last year. According to USDA, about 45% of US cattle are now in areas experiencing severe or more intense drought. Producers with hay stocks are working through them as they wait for spring weather to green up pastures, but that is not guaranteed. Producers may have the best intentions to breed more heifers, but if feed is not there, they may opt to replace older cows rather than expand the herd. The other challenge is uncertainty about beef demand, not today or tomorrow, but in 2027, 2028, and beyond. The economy is on solid footing, and combined with a growing consumer appetite for protein, this has helped push beef demand to the highest point in 30+ years. Consumers are fickle and tastes change. After many years of battling drought, packers, and changing consumer diets, for some producers this is a golden opportunity to cash out. REFERENCE: https://meatingplace.com/dlr-monthly-exclusive-herd-rebuilding-collides-with-drought-uncertainty/ Canada's Beef Traceability Rules On Hold Changes to Canada's beef traceability regulations were set to take effect in spring 2026 under Part 15 of the Health of Animals Regulations, but the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has paused publication of the proposed amendments after significant pushback from cattle producers. The complexity of the regulatory package has fuelled misunderstanding across the industry, and opposition has been vocal — including a petition launched Jan. 8 that has drawn nearly 30,000 signatures. Traceability efforts began before the 2003 BSE crisis, as the disease spread across Europe and Canada prepared for its arrival. The system was built to identify where infected animals came from and where they went, so the Canadian market could reopen as quickly as possible. Rick Wright of the Livestock Markets Association of Canada said without industry being at the table from day one, we may have been slapped with something that's closer to what Europe is than what we've got today. Producers have raised concerns about several elements of the proposed changes: the requirement to use premises identification numbers to purchase identification tags, the seven-day movement reporting window and the expanded role of the Canadian Livestock Tracking system. — particularly for those without reliable internet access. Other concerns include government overreach, the administrative burden on producers who move and sell cattle frequently, and what many see as insufficient communication from both the CFIA and producer organizations. Some producers have said publicly they do not intend to comply. REFERENCE: https://www.canadiancattlemen.ca/news/beef-traceability-rules-paused-producer-backlash/ Vet Shortage Challenges Livestock Producers Access to large animal veterinary care continues to be a growing concern, as livestock producers in Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado face ongoing shortages in rural veterinary services. Much of the region has been identified as underserved through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Program, which designates areas lacking sufficient veterinary coverage and offers incentives to attract practitioners. These designations underscore a widespread challenge in maintaining adequate care for livestock-heavy states. In these states, livestock operations are often spread across large geographic areas, meaning veterinarians cover extensive territories. Even a small decline in available practitioners can have significant impacts, leading to longer response times, increased travel distances and limited availability during critical periods. For producers, access to timely veterinary care is essential for herd health, productivity and regulatory compliance, especially during high-demand seasons such as calving. Federal and state programs across the Northern Plains show a growing recognition of the issue, but also highlight the scale of the challenge. Incentive-based programs in states like Nebraska aim to recruit veterinarians into rural practice, while proposed federal legislation seeks to strengthen those efforts. Wyoming's investments, meanwhile, support the broader animal health systems that depend on veterinary capacity. Even with these efforts, the shortage of large animal veterinarians remains a long-term concern. Sustained focus on education, recruitment and retention will be critical to ensuring livestock producers across Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado have access to the veterinary care they depend on. REFERENCE: https://www.thefencepost.com/news/veterinary-shortage-challenges-livestock-producers-across-the-northern-plains/ McDonald's Big Arch McDonald's efforts to balance prices and value in the face of more expensive inputs and inflation-stressed consumers is leading the chain to upgrade burgers even as chicken takes up more menu space, according to CEO Chris Kempczinski. He went viral recently in a video promoting McDonald's newly introduced Big Arch, drawing social media ridicule for taking a dainty bite. Bosses from competing chains made videos chowing down on their own sandwiches, but the hoopla ultimately dramatically raised awareness of the new burger. Kempczinski said in a recent video interview with the Wall Street Journal that there's a group of consumers out there who want a really big burger that's a half pound of beef in the Big Arch. He went on to say as you look at what consumers were buying, and perhaps other places; fast casual restaurants or or even fine dining or full dining, there's a desire to have sort of an elevated burger experience. And I think what we've done with the Big Arch, the bun, sauces that we have with it, the crispy onions, all those things. That was for us, a way to offer that more elevated burger experience.” Kempczinski said there's been quite a bit of cost inflation, both on the input side, so food and packaging, those costs are up pretty significantly,” Burgers and beef … has probably been one of the most hard-hit areas, and then you also had quite a bit of labor inflation that's happened.” McDonald's has been steadily adding chicken items to its menu for years, in part to manage input costs. Its expansion this year of value menu items has also been chicken-centric.

Your Day Off @Hairdustry; A Podcast about the Hair Industry!
Ted Gibson and Jason Backe Live at ABS ChicagoSome conversations remind you why you got into this industry in the first place. This is one of them.Recorded live at ABS Chicago with co-host Geno Chapman, Corey sits down with Ted Gibson and Jason Backe for an hour covering three decades of hustle, heartbreak, reinvention, and beauty from the inside out.The Roads That Led HereNeither Ted nor Jason took a straight path in. Jason was a raver kid in Minneapolis who walked into beauty school and for the first time felt seen by a teacher. Ted was a Texas athlete who walked into a salon called Zan and Friends, saw a room full of stylish people in starched Wranglers, and decided that was the life. What followed was barber school, a cross-country move seeking fame, a detour to Atlanta to answer phones while switching his license, and a room with Confederate flags on the wall. He stayed anyway. The sacrifices nobody sees are always the foundation of the success they do.What Fame Actually CostsSaying yes to Angelina Jolie's hair for Tomb Raider changed everything. Vogue. Marie Claire. A PR firm that told them to drop the name Fame and call it Ted Gibson. A Fifth Avenue salon. A DC licensing deal tied to the Real Housewives. A move to LA where they gambled everything and learned more than they earned. Three years in Palm Springs that have brought more inspiration than anywhere else they've lived. Success is not linear. It never was.The Client Relationship... and When It EndsTed's rule: treat every client like it's the first time you've seen her. She is a different person. Jason goes deeper, describing 20 years of New York clients who didn't care what it cost, and how COVID ended it overnight. He had to create a new category... client friends. Losing them felt like grief. It changed how he understood his work entirely.Ted Gibson Beauty Wellness ScienceAfter Ted's mom was diagnosed with dementia, they dove into brain health and found lion's mane mushroom. They felt it. They kept going. A scientist in Oregon with 30 years studying fungi and algae helped them build a superfood powder: lion's mane, chaga, reishi, tremella, and blue-green algae in a coconut milk base with vanilla and coffee. Tremella is shown to be 100 times more effective than hyaluronic acid at moisture retention. Mix it into anything. A book is coming.Convergence: Beauty Wellness Science SummitMay 2-3 in Palm Springs.

Today we're chatting with Amy Leverton, an LA-based denim trend forecaster, and the author of Denim Dudes, and founder of the Denim Dudes consultancy that has become one of the most trusted voices in the global denim industry. Amy grew up in the West Country of England — but once a year, Glastonbury Festival arrived like a city descending on her doorstep, and that collision of music, personal style, and creative energy lit something in her early on. She made her way to London College of Fashion and then Kingston University, where a project on Levi's quietly revealed what she was actually built for . After working as a denim and casualwear designer, she landed at WGSN, the world's largest trend forecasting agency, in 2007. She spent years building out their denim department, traveling to Coachella and Tokyo to photograph street style, chasing cool kids through markets and down city blocks, and connecting the cultural dots that tell brands what's coming before it arrives. She eventually went independent, and Denim Dudes — which began as a street style book published in 2015 — has since grown into a full consultancy with all the major denim clients you can think of: Levi's, Wrangler, Gap, Guess, Old Navy – you name it. Denim Dudes publishes a seasonal forecast subscription sharing where denim — and the broader culture around it — is headed next. On today's episode, we get into all of it: how vintage styles inform her forecasting, why she thinks the entire fashion industry needs to be paying attention to what's happening in the vintage market, the state of silhouette in an anything-goes era, and the vintage pieces she can't stop thinking about! Let's dive right in!

These nutrients play a key role in reproduction, immunity, and overall performance. Multimin® 90 is an injectable trace mineral supplement designed to quickly support cattle when they need it most. Why Trace Minerals Matter When cattle don't get enough trace minerals, it can lead to: Weaker immune systems Lower fertility rates Slower growth Even with good feed programs, cattle may still fall short because: Minerals in feed and water can be blocked and not absorbed Some animals consume less than others Stressful events increase mineral needs quickly Key Benefits of Strategic Supplementation Better Breeding Results Providing trace minerals at the right time can improve fertility and help produce more calves in a shorter period. Healthier Calves Supplementing cows late in pregnancy supports nutrient transfer to the calf and improves colostrum quality. Stronger Immunity Trace minerals help cattle respond better to vaccines and fight off disease. How Multimin® 90 Works Multimin® 90 is given by injection, allowing minerals to: Enter the bloodstream quickly (within 8–10 hours) Bypass digestion issues in the rumen Be stored in the liver for later use This ensures every animal gets the minerals it needs—right when it needs them. When to Use It Cows & Heifers Last trimester of pregnancy About 30 days before breeding Bulls At weaning 45–60 days before breeding season Calves (2+ months) At first vaccination At weaning Stockers During processing How to Use Always consult your veterinarian Follow label directions carefully Dose based on animal weight and age Do not exceed 7 mL per injection site Find out more about MULTIMIN 90 HERE Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Craig Louder, DVM - Axiota Animal Health https://axiota.com/ Follow On Facebook: @AxiotaAnimalHealth Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they hear how line breeding actually increases heterosis. The crew from Jorgensen Land and Cattle joins us to talk about that and how genomic testing helps reduce wasted matings. Plus, market recaps, the ranch channel sales calendar and lots more all wrapped into this brand-new episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. How Jorgensen Land & Cattle Uses Line Breeding To Increase Heterosis Jorgensen Land & Cattle has built its reputation on a simple but powerful idea: use linebreeding to create consistency, then use that consistency to maximize heterosis in commercial herds. Through decades of disciplined selection, the ranch has linebred its Angus cattle around proven genetics. This means their bulls are highly uniform, predictable, and strong in key traits like fertility, growth, and carcass quality. Instead of chasing constant outcrosses, they “lock in” performance by stacking generations of elite animals. So where does heterosis come in? When these linebred bulls are crossed with genetically different commercial cows, the calves benefit from hybrid vigor—often showing improved growth, health, and reproductive performance. The consistency of the bull allows producers to reliably capture these gains. In short: Linebreeding creates dependable, uniform bulls Crossbreeding those bulls creates high-performing, heterotic calves Jorgensen's system proves that linebreeding isn't the opposite of heterosis—it's one of the best ways to make it work predictably. Be sure to preview their offering at the 54th Annual Top Cut Bull Sale, at the ranch, Ideal, South Dakota.

Every new headline and cost increase makes them more cautious about pulling the trigger on a big-ticket item.”The New York Auto Show is back, bringing a mix of fresh, bold concepts, and future-looking EVs, giving dealers a glimpse at where product, design, and powertrains are heading next.Chrysler refreshed the Pacifica with a bold new look and trims, but notably dropped the plug-in hybrid, while still leaning on its Stow ‘n Go advantage.Kia and Subaru leaned into electrification, with the EV3 targeting ~320 miles of range and the Seltos adding a hybrid for the first time.Subaru's new all-electric, three-row “Getaway” SUV targets growing family demand for EV space and utility, with 300+ miles of range and arrival later this year.Hyundai's rugged Boulder Concept signals a move into true off-road competition, aiming squarely at Bronco and Wrangler territory.The show highlights the trend of more hybrids, more EVs, and more niche vehicles—all designed to give today's cautious buyer a reason to jump back in.NASA just launched humans back toward the moon for the first time in over 50 years, kicking off the Artemis II mission and signaling a major step toward putting astronauts back on the lunar surface.The mission kicked off with a powerful evening launch from Kennedy Space Center, marking the first time since 1972 that astronauts have blasted off on a mission bound for the moon.After launch, the crew will spend a full day testing the Orion spacecraft before committing to the multi-day trip around the moon.The mission won't land on the moon, but will loop around the far side—offering views no human has ever seen directly.This flight is a critical proving ground for future missions, including planned lunar landings and long-term moon operations later this decade.NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said: “This is the opening act… for missions that will send astronauJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Cattle Industry News Nebraska Fire Relief After more than 800,000 acres have burned in Nebraska wildfires, livestock producers are now searching for places to graze their animals. The Nebraska Cattlemen's Association says there are two main options — both showing how neighbors are stepping up to help. One option is feeding cattle hay. Donations are arriving by the truckload, but hay can still be expensive. The second option is a free online tool called the Nebraska Grazing Exchange. It connects ranchers who need land with farmers who have pasture available. People who want to help can sign up, list what they can offer, and connect directly with ranchers in need. Once a match is made, the next step is moving the animals to that land. Laura Field, Executive Vice President of Nebraska Cattlemen, says support has been overwhelming. She says tough times like this bring out the best in the agriculture community. Field says some ranchers have lost up to 70 or 80 percent of their summer grazing land, and may need to move cattle to entirely different regions — even out of state. But she says help is coming from all directions — across the country. Field also says she doesn't expect long-term economic damage. She says Nebraska's beef industry is strong and resilient, and will weather this challenge. While moving cattle — also known as rotational grazing — isn't new, the situation right now is complicated. Field says burned areas are filled with damaged equipment like fencing, water systems, and other infrastructure. She says groups are working with state and federal partners to match needs with resources and get supplies where they're needed most. As for concerns about ranchers leaving the state, Field says the grass will grow back — and the cattle will return. The Nebraska Department of Agriculture adds that grazing can actually help prevent future wildfires by reducing dry plant material. Nebraska Grazing Exchange References: https://www.klkntv.com/online-tool-connects-farmers-with-available-land-to-cattle-ranchers-in-need-of-grazing-area-after-wildfires/ Global Meat Trade & Demand A series of market-moving events, including a strike at a JBS beef plant, geopolitical tensions involving Iran, shifting oil prices and tariff uncertainty, have yet to derail strong beef demand, as wholesale prices continued to climb, according to analysis by Drovers and Sterling Marketing Profit Tracker. Market fundamentals have shifted in recent weeks. Lower fed cattle prices combined with higher boxed beef values improved packer margins while pressuring feedlots. For the week ending March 14, packer margins were estimated at a loss of $54.17 per head, narrowing from deeper losses in prior weeks. The beef cutout rose to $390.66 per cwt. Feedlot margins turned negative, estimated at a loss of $48.79 per head. Elevated breakevens continue to pressure feedlots despite strong demand. Hamburger prices on restaurant menus are 14% higher in the last three years, but beef production costs jumped 32% since January 2023, according to a new report from food industry intelligence firm, Datassential. Burger inflation is roughly in line with broader restaurant prices, despite the effects of chronically tight beef supplies. Food away from home — which approximates all food service including dine-in, takeout and delivery — rose 4% in 2025 and is 13% higher since January 2023, according to the federal government's Consumer Price Index. The Datassential report pointed out that restaurant pricing strategy can keep prices on popular items in check to avoid hurting turnover, while causing cost burdens to be spread throughout the operation. Burgers in particular are a source of traffic, especially in the quick-service segment.

In recent months, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer has floated legislation aimed at restructuring the industry, while President Donald Trump has ordered the Department of Justice to investigate major beef packers for potential antitrust violations. The unusual bipartisan convergence reflects mounting political pressure to address food affordability, even as economists and industry leaders say the fundamental driver of high beef prices lies elsewhere. The renewed focus on meatpacker consolidation follows years of debate over the market dominance of the so-called “Big Four” beef packers (JBS, Tyson Foods, Cargill and National Beef), which together handle roughly 80% of U.S. cattle slaughter. Trump last fall directed the DOJ to investigate whether large packers engaged in “Illicit Collusion, Price Fixing, and Price Manipulation,” while several Republican lawmakers voiced support for stronger antitrust enforcement. At the same time, Schumer and other Democrats are preparing legislation that would attempt to curb consolidation across the food system, including potentially forcing meat companies to focus on a single protein.

The case was brought by Upside Foods, a California company that produces lab-grown chicken, after the law took effect in July of 2024. A three-judge panel on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the ban does not conflict with federal laws regulating traditional poultry. The court said the state law doesn't control how the product is made — only whether it can be sold — meaning federal law does not override it. The decision also upholds an earlier ruling from a federal district court that dismissed the case. Florida Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson, who supported the law, called the ruling a win for farmers and consumers. Governor Ron DeSantis, who signed the bill, has also defended the measure, saying it protects Florida agriculture from what he calls “lab-grown alternatives.” Florida was the first state to pass a ban on cultivated meat. Since then, several others — including Alabama, Indiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, and Texas — have followed. The bans come as the lab-grown meat industry is still in its early stages. The Food and Drug Administration first approved cultivated meat for sale in 2022. Supporters of the industry argue these state laws could slow innovation, cost jobs, and limit competition. It's not yet clear if Upside Foods plans to appeal the ruling.

The first walkout at a U.S. beef slaughterhouse in four decades follows accusations from union officials that the company retaliated against workers and committed other unfair labor practices. They said the company offered wage increases of less than 2% annually, which is below Colorado's inflation rate. Union officials said 99% of the plant's 3,800 unionized workers voted to strike. More than 2,600 showed up at the picket line by early Monday afternoon and others were expected to check in over coming days. The union said its workers perform some of the most difficult and dangerous jobs in the country and deserve higher wages and better health care. It said JBS in many cases has charged workers $1,100 or more to offset the company's expenses for personal protective equipment. The strike comes at a 75-year low in U.S. cattle numbers, with a Jan. 1 inventory of 86.2 million animals — down 1% from the prior year. The decline has been driven in part by drought and low prices offered to ranchers. Meanwhile, beef prices have soared to record levels. President Donald Trump's tariffs on Brazil, a major beef exporter, have also curbed imports. Pressed to act on “affordability” issues after Republican losses last November, Trump accused foreign-owned companies of driving up U.S. beef prices and asked the Department of Justice to investigate. The price for 100% ground chuck beef more than doubled over the past two decades from $2.55 to $6.07 per pound, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The increase has added to economic anxiety in the U.S. The Trump administration has promoted a trade deal with Argentina in efforts to lower prices for food, including beef. According to a livestock market adviser for industry consultant Ever Ag, the Greeley plant has about 6% of the total U.S. beef slaughterhouse capacity.

The strike at JBS's plant in Greeley will start on March 16. The strike comes after the workers gave notice of cancellation of their contract due to alleged unfair labor practices. JBS was one of about 20 food companies that settled a 2024 federal lawsuit for over $200 million over employee wage fixing. JBS says it employs more than 270,000 people around the world — 3,800 of whom are based in Greeley, where JBS USA is headquartered — and pays $3.1 billion for livestock each year, making it the world's largest meat supplier. References: https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/jbs-workers-confirm-strike-colorado-meat-processing-plant-labor-practices/ https://meatingplace.com/union-sets-date-for-potential-strike-at-jbs-greeley-beef-plant Lawsuit Over Electronic Identification Tags A lawsuit over the U.S. Department of Agriculture's mandatory electronic identification ear tag rule for cattle and bison is moving forward, with a federal court request in South Dakota to set the rule aside. The New Civil Liberties Alliance or NCLA — which is representing ranchers, farmers, and livestock producers in the case — argues that the USDA and its Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service or APHIS unlawfully required electronically readable identification, or EID, ear tags for certain cattle and bison moving across state lines, replacing long-used visual tags. According to the NCLA's case summary, APHIS in 2013 allowed several forms of official identification for certain interstate cattle and bison movements, including both visual-only and electronically readable ear tags. But in May 2024, APHIS issued a final rule requiring that official ear tags sold for or applied to certain cattle and bison be readable both visually and electronically. The plaintiffs' March 5 summary judgment brief argues that the USDA did not adequately justify the change and that the rule imposes added costs on producers while failing to solve the agency's stated traceability concerns. In the filing, plaintiffs said the rule “mandates that America's ranchers and farmers use visually-readable electronic identification (“EID”) ear tags when moving certain cattle and bison interstate” and argued the rule “increases the cost of raising cattle by approximately $3 per head.” The NCLA said the USDA had previously agreed visual-only tags were effective in tracing disease in cattle and bison and had allowed producers to choose between visual-only and electronically readable options. The group now argues the 2024 rule abandoned that flexibility without sufficiently explaining the change. The organization also contends the current rule is internally inconsistent because it says EID ear tags are needed to reduce transcription errors tied to “human error,” while still allowing those same tags to be used visually in the same manner as traditional tags if producers do not use electronic readers. The USDA, however, says animal disease traceability is important for quickly identifying where diseased and at-risk animals are, where they have been, and when they were there. On its Animal Disease Traceability page, APHIS says traceability does not prevent disease but “reduces the number of animals and response time involved in a disease investigation,” which in turn reduces the economic impact on owners and affected communities. APHIS also says it provides electronic ID tags to cattle producers at no cost through state veterinarian offices. The case remains active in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota.

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as we hear what we need to know and watch out for when it comes to New World Screwworm and what economically it could do if found in the country. Plus, the latest news, market reports, the ranch channel sales calendar and lots more all wrapped into this brand-new episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Season 6, EPISODE 279 What Is New World Screwworm? The New World screw worm (NWS) is the larval stage of the fly Cochliomyia hominivorax. Unlike most fly maggots that feed on dead tissue, screw worm larvae feed on living tissue — making them especially dangerous to cattle and other livestock. The adult fly lays eggs in open wounds, including: Branding or castration sites Dehorning wounds Ear tag punctures Tick bites Navel cords of newborn calves Minor cuts or abrasions Once hatched, larvae burrow into flesh in a screw-like motion — hence the name “screw worm.” Why New World Screwworm Is A Major Threat To Cattle 1. Rapid Tissue Destruction Larvae feed aggressively on living tissue, enlarging wounds quickly. Untreated infestations can lead to: Severe tissue damage Secondary bacterial infections Reduced weight gain Decreased milk production Infertility in breeding stock Death in severe cases 2. High Economic Impact Historically, screw worm outbreaks have cost the livestock industry billions in: Treatment costs Production losses Increased labor Export restrictions Quarantine expenses The successful eradication program in the U.S. — led by the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service — is considered one of the greatest livestock pest control achievements in history. Signs Of Screwworm Infestation In Cattle Early detection is critical. Producers should watch for: Foul-smelling wounds Bloody discharge Sudden irritation or head shaking Reduced feed intake Visible maggots in wounds Rapid wound enlargement Infested cattle often isolate themselves and show signs of distress. Treatment Protocol For Infected Cattle If screw worm is suspected: Immediately isolate the animal Notify state animal health authorities Clean and flush the wound Apply approved larvicidal treatments Monitor closely for reinfestation Reporting is mandatory in many regions because screw worm is a regulated livestock pest. Prevention Strategies For Cattle Producers 1. Wound Management Best Practices Avoid elective procedures during peak fly season Use fly repellents and wound protectants Monitor surgical sites daily 2. Biosecurity Protocols Inspect newly purchased livestock Quarantine imported cattle Monitor wildlife activity around pastures 3. Seasonal Awareness Screw worm risk increases in: Warm climates High humidity Regions with cross-border cattle movement New World Screwworm Information Guide: Click HERE Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry M.Wayne Ayers, DVM - Elanco Animal Health https://farmanimal.elanco.com/us Follow On Facebook: @ElancoUS Kirk Donsbach – Financial Analyst at StoneX https://www.stonex.com/ Follow on Facebook: @StoneXGroupInc Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

In this episode of the **Jeep Talk Show**, host Tony sits down with Shane from **Genesis Offroad** for an in-depth interview on dual battery systems, power solutions, and keeping your Jeep reliable on and off the trail. Shane shares the origin story of Genesis Offroad—starting with his passion for Jeeps in 2008, launching the company in 2010 during tough economic times, and building high-quality, innovative parts right here in the USA. It all began when he couldn't find a solid dual battery setup for a high-electrical-demand build, so he created his own premium kit—and the rest is history! We dive deep into: - Why the factory auxiliary battery (that pesky little one under the fuse box) is a common pain point—and how Genesis solves it with options like stock relocation kits, stock replacement kits (using two full-size batteries), and full Gen 3 dual battery systems. - The **Gen 3 Power Hub**: Smart battery combining, automatic isolation to protect your cranking battery, bus bars for easy accessory wiring, manual boost switch for jumpstarting, and how it keeps everything running even if something fails. - Advantages of dual batteries: Power accessories (fridge, lights, winch, compressor) with the engine off without killing your starter battery, better winching performance by spreading load, faster restarts, and peace of mind in remote areas. - AGM vs. lead-acid batteries, capacity vs. cranking amps, why Group 25 batteries match or exceed stock performance in a cleaner package, and tips on battery rotation, mismatched batteries, and replacement strategies. - The **G-Screen** monitor: Tiny in-cab display showing voltages, link status (with color alerts: green/yellow/red), boost control, and even optional air pressure readout—no big screens needed! - The newer **Omega system**: Uses a REDARC DC-DC charger for full isolation (great for mixing AGM + lithium), Anderson plug for easy solar input, and Bluetooth app monitoring. - Solar compatibility, snorkel fitment tips (like a quick heat-gun tweak), and support for JL/JLU, JT Gladiator, JK, 392/diesel Wranglers, Toyotas, Broncos, and more—plus universal options. Shane and Amy run a faith-driven, customer-focused business delivering top-notch, American-made products to the off-road community. Whether you're overlanding, daily driving, or just hate dead batteries in inconvenient spots, this setup changes the game. 00:00 Show Introduction and Guest Background 01:19 Auxiliary Battery Issues and Start‑Stop Debate 03:26 Battery Relocation Kit and Installation Details 06:57 Dual‑Battery Kit Evolution and Custom Jeep Market Gap 12:49 Dual Battery System Overview and Operational Mechanics 15:50 Load Sharing, Winching Power, and Current Capacity 17:50 AGM Battery Benefits: Capacity, Ah Ratings, and Installation 21:38 Battery Size, Capacity, and Comparison (Group 25 vs H7) 23:35 Dual Battery System Operation, Boost Feature, and Backup 27:32 Battery Cycle Life, Failure Management & Switching Options 32:49 Dual‑battery system considerations and cost 36:29 Power hub identification and wiring overview 39:22 Benefits and safety advantages of dual batteries 41:01 Potential failures and emergency situations 41:21 Dual Battery Basics:Common Misconceptions, System Limits & Boost Operation 42:59 System Configurations, Start‑Stop and Battery Management 44:39 G‑Screen Monitoring Interface and Features 49:25 Omega DualBattery Kit: Bluetooth, Solar Integration & Vehicle Compatibility Overview 54:55 Installation, Website Resources, and Podcast Details 57:38 IT Support, Battery Tips, Social Media, and Closing Remarks Check out their full lineup, install videos, tech tips, and the "Overcharged" podcast at:
Building HVAC Science - Building Performance, Science, Health & Comfort
Pithy quotes "Your product can be great, but if you're hard to work with, nobody's going to buy it." "Take a deep breath, go back to the fundamentals, and ask: what's the biggest value I can add today?" "You're allowed to say, 'I don't know. I'll figure it out for you.' People respect that more than the runaround." Brad Adcox joined the Building HVAC Science podcast with Bill and Eric and, within minutes, earned the unofficial title "donkey wrangler" after sharing a story about his donkey. The laughs kept coming, including a side quest into hobby-farm life on a 40-acre "family compound" outside Dallas with cows, donkeys, mini horses, and a long-running plan by Brad's dad to eventually acquire a camel. The banter was fun, but it also set the tone for who Brad is: practical, observant, and very people-focused. Brad's HVAC background runs deep and wide. He grew up around wholesale, started at Winsupply in the warehouse and as a delivery driver, then moved through outside sales and even a stint selling and building Cisco server infrastructure. He eventually joined SUPCO, helped scale territory coverage and rep networks, and was part of launching TradeFox, the influencer-inventor program that surfaced a pile of real-world products, including the magnetic umbrella that Bill notes TruTech sold in big numbers. Brad later spent time at NAVAC teaching fundamentals like pulling a proper vacuum, and today he's in a "free agent" phase, running consultant-style sales and service training for contractors in the DFW area. The core of Brad's message is fundamentals, especially customer service and relationship transfer. He's worried the industry is headed for a knowledge cliff as experienced wholesalers, reps, and counter people retire without passing down relationships or practical know-how. He also sees a drift toward "parts changers" and automated, text-only customer interactions that reduce real human connection. In his local classes, he pushes techs to slow down just enough to add value: communicate like a neighbor, do a fuller system check while you're already there, explain what you looked at, and offer small, memorable extras. He's also blunt about wholesale basics: greet people when they walk in, be willing to say "I don't know, but I'll find out," and stop hiding behind "that's just Facebook" when customer sentiment is being broadcast publicly. Brad's: LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/brad-adcox-1a070467/ This episode was recorded in January 2026.

In this episode (a follow-up to our August 2024 chat on fixing death wobble), we dive deep into: - How Steer Smarts eliminates death wobble, numb steering, wandering, and insecure highway feel on JL Wranglers, JT Gladiators, and more – even on stock or mildly lifted rigs. - Real-world explanations: What *actually* causes death wobble (harmonics, deflection in factory components like track bars), vs. "wiggles" or shimmy. - Preventative upgrades: Start with the beefy solid-forged track bar + sector shaft brace for massive improvements (~$600-650 budget combo) – then add drag link, tie rod, and stabilizer. - Why Steer Smarts' Yeti XD series linkages (forged in-house, minimal outsourcing, no jam nuts, clamp-style retention) transform ride quality, reduce fatigue, and handle big tires/lifts. - Tony's personal experience: Full Steer Smarts install on his 2021 Jeep Talk Show Gladiator – night-and-day difference, wife-approved confidence, no more babysitting on the highway. - New RōMR Suspension line (launched at SEMA 2025): Fully integrated chassis systems (Trail, Ascent, Summit kits) for JL/JT – 2.5" or 3.5" lift options, tuned for 90% of enthusiasts (daily driving + moderate trails), reduced body roll, firmer/plant feel, pairs perfectly with Steer Smarts steering. - Summit Chassis System: Comprehensive overhaul (sway bars, shocks, springs, geometry corrections, steering reinforcements) – takes the guesswork out. - Tips: Diagnose first (torque checks, bushings), prevention over cure, install yourself or via dealer network, works on stock Jeeps too – not just lifted monsters. - Bonus: Tony's million-dollar ideas (candy cane tie rods? "I Survived Death Wobble" shirts?), social media handles, and tech support (888-8GO-YETI). If you're tired of white-knuckling your Jeep, chasing wobble, or wanting that confident, planted drive – this is for you!
