If you got it something like that.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Yeah, the New earth festal.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
The fifty second annual. They'll be up to eighty thousand
people here in little in Atlanta, Indiana. They have six bands.
It goes till six o'clock tonight and then tomorrow from
nine until five. And we are joined by a very
special guest that has done some very interesting wine and
it involves yaks.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
Yeah, and not what you think about the yaks, but
Beth is one of the the Wooly Yak is one
of the sponsors of this great festival. And so she's
right in front of us. I just went over there
and I recognized her that she was my prom date
in nineteen seven. And so I don't think Jay knows
about Beth, and certainly Faith who's also working there, didn't
know about Beth. So Beth tell us about the Wooly Yack.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Great, thanks for having us.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
Yes, we are sponsoring the Atlanta Earth Festival and we
are really just eight minutes from here in Arcadia and
it's a little hidden gym. We've been opened since May.
We have twenty five acres. We have all kinds of
trees right now, Papaw, we have one hundred and fifty
seven pop pap. I brought you some po Paw wine
to try. I never had one right here, Yes, I
think so. The mix, I think that I had them
(01:18):
together and I got the raspberry hailipino.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So we have all kinds.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
First, it's a sweet wine. I think it is. I
brought several. If it's kind of pinkish, that's the raspberry hailipeno.
You can smell the raspberry hailipenio. This popaw, it's sweet.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
It's sweet, could almost it is.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Really it is a sweet wine.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
It's but we sell fresh Papa's at our our farm.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
You could go. You could leave now it's open and
go get pop paw.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
So why why I don't taste I get to taste
the yak on the finish.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
I'm going to get you with the There are no
yaks in the wine. Just to be clear, mister Sullivan,
there is no It is grapes. It is wine with
is made with popaul pop So actually, so where did
make it out? So the yaks are on.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
The farm, Yes, Okay, we do have a farm.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
It is a farm. Okay, we do have yaks. We
have six female yaks right over there. Now we do
have no a yaks are on another one.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Yes, so there's no he in and she and going on.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Well, there might be later, but when they you got to.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Kind of watch that because sometimes when yak boys, sorry boys,
when they get in the mood, they can charge within
a mile. So as far as like, you have to
keep them at least a mile away. But maybe next
year they'll be baby acts.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
You also have baby dell sheep.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yes, we have sheep. And we have two cooneycomb pigs.
So we have what type of pig honey coon pigs
and what is that?
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Well, my understanding is is kind of they don't root.
As far as that goes, I'm not the owner. Chris
and Kathy are the owners. I'm a worker bee, but
I absolutely love it. It is a farm, working farm first,
and then we have wines that are not made out
of yak.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Mister Salvin's hard.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Don't call butt head like we all do.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
But we do have them there and you can go
see them and enjoy them.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
There.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Bottles, the yacks are these are wooly yacks and they're
just beautiful.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I don't know what people do with them.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I don't know if.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
That's the yarn and the fiber. As soon as that goes, Yes,
wine not out of the out.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Isn't Malayan, it's like a Himalayan county.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
It is. It is it's wine. What is it?
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:20):
What is it? You're saying? They could compress thess.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Just kind of like they squeeze, all right.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
So besides the wine, besides the wine, what else is it?
The wooly Yac farm.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
We have a little bit of everything. We have a
food truck. First of all, we have the trees. We
have the paw paws that are right now through and
per simmons are coming in, so we have perimons and
you can go make per simon putting pump and stuff.
So it's really farm first. And we have in November
we'll have pecan trees where we have pecan trees. So
we work with an arborist as far as I go.
(03:55):
So it's a real farm. Come see, we have lavender.
I brought you some of our goodies. That way of thought,
that could be the cab or the peen orenar no
that's not raspberry hallopino because it looks a rose. You'll
smell the raspberry jilapeno. You'll smell the one. As far
as like it, yeah, it looks a little rosy.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
We have a blueberry lemonade. I tried to bring it.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
I had it ready, but then you know, sorry as
far as mix it, but we have all of it
here to sample at the Earth Festival.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
So this is obviously pretty dry.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
The cab we have dry is very exclusive.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yes, and.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
The wine there right now, we just opened in May
Mother's Day weekend. So right now we are partnering with
a winery in Ohio that makes our wine because our
vineyard is in a Sheridan and it's relatively young, so
it's only two years and you need about six years
to get that. So hopefully down the road that will
be there. But so right now we get that and
(04:51):
they bottle it. But you'll see almost every bottle has
our yaks we have.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
So you send the yak to Ohio.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
No, you do not send the yacks. The yaks stay.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
And that welcome to my world.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
There is no y accent.

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
