We are back, and halfway through season five. Honestly, if you asked us how long we've had Mr. Jaecke on our list to interview, we'd tell you entirely too long. We finally got the opportunity to sit down and discuss some major topics that have been needing answers. Not only do you get the story behind Mr. Jaecke's success, but also how we can be better as an industry. Mr. Jaecke is known for standing in what he believes, and this episode is an exact representation of what we try to bring to you as a listener. Empowerment Is Here.
Now we know this is a little change of pace, but we can guarantee there is something for everyone in this episode.

Although we changed lanes, this is beyond what we could ask for. Empowerment Is Here.

To be clear, we don't have much to say at this point. If Rory's name isn't enough evidence to get you to listen, then nothing else will be. Rory has set a standard in both hogs and cattle, and has done it with as much or more passion than anyone. This is by far the best finale, hands down. Rich history, stories upon stories, mentorship, and much more. This is what Rory D would call "The Good Stuff." Empowerment Is Here.
We could not have finished this season with greater people who have established a benchmark for this sector of the industry. For all intents and purposes, this is some of the most real-world stuff that we are able to deliver on this platform. The way in which Mr. Rathmann discovered actual advancement within himself and his organization is explained, in addition to the fact that he discovers the positives in each and every day. This is one of the most influential episodes to date, and it covers a wide range of topics, including genetics, prospect shows, and the mindset that he has had behind all of it. Empowerment is here.
Wow... The conclusion of season 4 is coming far sooner than we could have possibly anticipated, and we are pleased with the outcome. But WOW, we couldn't have come up with a greater way to begin wrapping it up. During their time together, Kase and Kelton not only share their experiences with the team regarding the various endeavors they have undertaken throughout their time in college, but they also offer guidance to anyone who aspires to achieve excellence in their chosen field. It's possible that this is a livestock judger 101 episode, but it says a lot about a person's character, determination, and the places that leave a lasting impression upon oneself. 
Not only have we had the privilege to do multiple livestreams this season, but also brought on guests who are highly sought after. And Trademark Genetics is one of them. As Weston sits down with Madison and Mandy, they discuss their story and how they have built everything up. Better yet, they discuss their mindset when it comes to making a mark in the industry and what it all takes. Don't be afraid to make your mark in whatever it is you're passionate about, and make sure to tune into this phenomenal episode. Empowerment is here.

Being completely honest with whoever is reading this, Willie's episode is by far one of our absolute favorites. We discussed how the show heifer world has evolved since he started and how he has taken Weis Cattle to the next level. From starting with only one breed to now offering the most diverse yet competitive females in the country, Willie walked us through his process and plan for molding his operation. But to be utterly honest with you, there's more than just selling phenomenal show females, and Willie's motivational mindset should give you chills! If you haven't listened to any episodes in season 4 yet, pause what you're doing and tune in. Empowerment is here.

Wow, what a way to kick off the end of a season. To keep things simple, the team and Chris talk about the cattle industry as whole. However, the episode is far from brief. The content provided is distinct. Topics include evaluation, explanation, post-show, and pre-show discussions. It's rare to hear renowned evaluators discuss the industry's past, present, and future. So, if you're looking for advancements or just want to hear how a young man from Maryland developed into one of the greats. There's no greater opportunity. Empowerment is here.
Regarding expertise and knowledge in the sheep and goat industry, Chad Walker's name is more widely recognized than most. Chad and the team engaged in a discussion about the forthcoming revolutions in the industry and how a cancer diagnosis ingnited a passion. Additional topics included daily care, environmental considerations, and the evolution of the two species.

Yes we know… it’s been way too long since we’ve had a hog enthusiast on the pod. So with that said, go big or go home. Mr. Jason Lackey and the team discuss how a small family pig operation, has become one of the most competitive in the nation. Conversations also include changes in the livestock judging world over the years, how to perform at a higher level and how lackey livestock operates.

Let's be honest: an hour and a half long episode can be difficult to listen to, but when we say this is for the books, we mean it. This episode is rich in diversity, and Raymond addresses every facet of life. Growing a business, creating a legacy, and overcoming hardship. His story is truly remarkable, and it should inspire everyone to exceed their limitations and seek improvement. If you experience self-doubt, listen in and understand that it is rather typical when attempting to become elite. While listening, all we ask is that you reflect on your difficulties and find a method to overcome them. Empowerment is here.
