Another volatile week across livestock and grains heading into the holiday weekend as diesel prices hit all-time highs this week. We begin the show listening back to Friday's Midday Commentary with Arlan Suderman from StoneX who discuss grains, livestock with the rumored Executive Orders from President Trump, jobs numbers and more.

Then in Segment Two, Tommy Grisafi of Ag Bull Media and Nesvick Trading joins the show to break down why it's less a farm problem and more an American problem with high diesel prices— a hidden tax touching everything from grocery prices to freight surcharges. Tommy walks through how to manage 2027 marketing risk in a high-input environment, why one client bought a December '27 put to set a floor while keeping upside open, the corn futures curve out through 2029, Friday's jobs numbers and what they mean for the Fed, and a candid take on AI already reshaping jobs in ag media.

In Segment Three, Scott Varilek of Kooima Kooima Varilek (KKV Trading) in Sioux Center, Iowa joins the show to break down the MCOOL beef labeling move, why the U.S. cattle herd is at a 75-year low and can't be rebuilt overnight, sluggish hog trade, Black Sea headlines driving grain, and diesel prices hitting all-time highs just as producers start budgeting for 2027.
