Unscripted: Why 40% of the Ag Vote is Up for Grabs

On this episode of “Unscripted,” hosts Tyne Morgan and Clinton Griffiths throw out the script for a wide-ranging conversation on the growing divide between rural America and Washington, D.C. Political strategist Michael Amato breaks down exclusive new polling of nearly 1,000 farmers and ranchers, revealing mounting frustration over rising input costs, volatile markets, trade policy, and whether elected officials truly understand life on the farm. Then, rural politics expert Nicholas Jacobs joins the conversation to explore how rural voters are shaping America’s political landscape, why community matters more than individual economics in rural decision-making, and whether the country can overcome the growing “us versus them” divide. From diesel prices and midterm elections to trust in government and the future of rural America, this episode delivers an honest, thoughtful discussion about the pressures facing farmers and the voices behind the headlines.

But it’s not all storytelling—this episode tackles serious issues facing agriculture today. The team breaks down: * A controversial legal battle where farmers face massive fines without a jury trial * Growing concerns over government overreach and property rights * Rising fertilizer prices and lack of competition in ag markets * The shifting demand for cotton in a world dominated by synthetic fabrics Plus, a lighter side of life—from prom DJ duties to parenting wins and the realities of raising the next generation.

Unscripted: How One Texas Farmer Is Taking the Fight to Fertilizer

From devastating blizzards and wildfires to unseasonable heat, extreme weather is creating chaos across the U.S., leaving farmers scrambling to adapt in an increasingly unpredictable environment. Joined by farmer advocate Dee Vaughn from Texas, the conversation turns to a growing crisis in fertilizer pricing. Are rising costs simply market-driven—or is something deeper at play? Dee shares concerns about industry consolidation, alleged price manipulation, and why fertilizer prices seem tied more to corn markets than actual input costs. The discussion also explores how global conflicts—from the Middle East to beyond—are adding fuel to the fire, raising serious questions about pricing practices and accountability in the ag supply chain. This episode pulls back the curtain on the forces shaping modern farming—and the voices demanding change. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Unscripted: Fertilizer Frenzy, Global Tensions & the Fight for Farmer Survival

This week on Unscripted, Tyne Morgan and Clinton Griffiths sit down with Josh Linville of StoneX to unpack the extreme volatility in global fertilizer markets. From Middle East tensions and shipping risks near the Strait of Hormuz to skyrocketing nitrogen costs, the conversation dives into what’s driving price spikes—and what it means for farmers’ bottom lines. With input costs squeezing margins and corn acreage potentially at risk in 2026, the trio also tackle the push for expanded domestic production and real policy solutions. It’s a candid look at fertilizer turmoil, farmer frustration, and the fight for stability in uncertain times. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
