Angus Underground

It’s a Black and White Issue

Episode Notes

The guys are back (minus Korbin), and are very concerned about his absence. Vince recalls last seeing Korbin attempting to tear down the goalpost after the TCU game. Vince discusses the nuances of good pasta and laments about eating too much Thanksgiving dinner. Then, the crew welcomes Chuck Grove, the President and Chairman of the Angus Association’s Board of Directors, to discuss his short list of emerging issues facing membership, the continuation of breed improvement, and the formation of a committee tasked with reviewing the rule governing excess white hide on Angus cattle.

To help get us in the holiday spirit, we also hear from Greg Dotson of Kentucky, who raised more than $70,000 for farmers affected by the tornadoes with his Christmas Charity Raffle.

Quotes:

• “All livestock will eventually become deadstock. You do everything in your power to keep them alive and give them the best existence possible, and what do they do to repay you? They die.”
• “We just need to think about what it is we want to accomplish and who we want to help and roll up our sleeves to just do it.”
• “A breed standard for type is important. Otherwise, you don’t have a breed.”
• “If you’re not gonna do it right, don’t do it.” — Greg
