Devil's Cut | Ask A Farmer

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.     About Truth in the Barrel: 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.   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.   Join them weekly for deep dives into timely topics, interviews with recognizable guests, and a dose of call-in fun.   Visit Our Website: www.TruthintheBarrel.com   Subscribe to Truth in the Barrel: https://www.youtube.com/@TruthIntheBarrel   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0JQcSj5mwVyGDJ8DcXwlu9?si=5f2bd1d1b0c64e6f   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truth-in-the-barrel/id1804092329   Instagram, BlueSky, Facebook, TikTok: @TruthintheBarrel   Visit Our Substack : https://substack.com/@truthinthebarrelpodcast
