Ep 07 | Real Talk: Veteran Farmers & Mental Health (ft. PA Secretary of Ag)

Russell Redding was unanimously confirmed by the Pennsylvania Senate to serve as Pennsylvania's 27th Secretary of Agriculture on May 10, 2023. Governor Josh Shapiro nominated Redding to continue serving as secretary, after he served from 2015 – 2022 under Governor Tom Wolf. He is the former dean of the School of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences at Delaware Valley University. Redding has extensive experience as a public servant, having spent more than 30 years serving Pennsylvania in Harrisburg and Washington D.C. He worked on Capitol Hill as Ag Policy Advisor to U.S. Senator Harris Wofford and served for nearly 25 years in the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, serving as secretary from 2009-2011 under Governor Ed Rendell, and from 2015-2022 under Governor Tom Wolf. He also served on the Agriculture subcommittee of the USDA’s Equity Commission. He earned his B.S. in Agriculture Education and M.S. in Agriculture and Extension Education from Penn State University. In addition, he is a graduate of the Agribusiness Executive program. A native of Pennsylvania, Redding has an innate understanding of food and agriculture, stemming from his youth on his family’s dairy farm and his time as a dairy farm operator. He and his wife Nina have two adult sons and own and operate a farm in Gettysburg.

Ep 06 | Traveling the World with a U.S. Navy Veteran

Don Hershey was born in Lancaster County and raised in the Lehigh Valley.  As the son of his high school principal, Don faced more than his fair share of social pressure from classmates. By the time he graduated, he was eager to get as far away from his hometown as possible and had little interest in attending college.  Instead, Don enlisted in the U.S. Navy, where he trained as an Electrician’s Mate and attained the rank of Second Class Petty Officer.  Don served in the 6th Fleet aboard the U.S.S. Nimitz (CVN-68), an aircraft carrier, and the U.S.S. Vulcan (AR-5), a repair ship, from 1978 to 1984—during the Iranian and Libyan crises. He completed two Mediterranean, two North Atlantic, and multiple Caribbean cruises. His Navy service gave him the opportunity to see much of the world and to form lifelong friendships.  After his military service, Don earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Administration from Kutztown University. He went on to spend forty-two years working in federal, state, and local government, as well as in the public sector.  Don is retired and currently lives in Hummelstown with his wife, Cindy.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
