Devil's Cut | Ask A Farmer

<p class="MsoNormal">In this episode, Amy sits down with Kentucky soybean farmer Jim Wade to talk about how the ongoing trade war with China is hitting America's heartland. From skyrocketing equipment costs to disappearing export markets, Jim shares how chaotic tariff policies and political dysfunction are threatening the survival of small family farms. We also dive into the ripple effects on healthcare, immigrant labor, and Kentucky's broader economy — from soybeans to bourbon.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"> <hr align="center" size="2" width="100%" /></div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">About Truth in the Barrel:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Amy and Denver are both military veterans, political junkies, and whiskey lovers who sit on opposite sides of the aisle but have one thing in common: they love the United States of America.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Truth in the Barrel was born of Amy & Denver's commitment to country, the Constitution, and a well-curated collection of the world's finest bourbon.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Join them weekly for deep dives into timely topics, interviews with recognizable guests, and a dose of call-in fun.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Visit Our Website:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"><a href="http://www.truthinthebarrel.com"><span style="color: #1155cc;">www.TruthintheBarrel.com</span></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Subscribe to Truth in the Barrel:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TruthIntheBarrel"><span style="color: #1155cc;">https://www.youtube.com/@TruthIntheBarrel</span></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Spotify:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0JQcSj5mwVyGDJ8DcXwlu9?si=5f2bd1d1b0c64e6f"> <span style="color: #1155cc;">https://open.spotify.com/show/0JQcSj5mwVyGDJ8DcXwlu9?si=5f2bd1d1b0c64e6f</span></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Apple Podcasts:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-in-the-barrel/id1804092329"> <span style="color: #1155cc;">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-in-the-barrel/id1804092329</span></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Instagram, BlueSky, Facebook, TikTok:</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">@TruthintheBarrel</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"> <strong><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN">Visit Our Substack :</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"><a href="https://substack.com/@truthinthebarrelpodcast">https://substack.com/@truthinthebarrelpodcast</a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" xml:lang="EN"> </span></p>
