This episode is the first of a two-part extended interview special. Part 2 will release on Monday, December 16th.

This week, The Sort welcomes three legends of the swine industry into the studio: Al Christian, Al Snedegar and Steve Nichols. Listen in as they talk about their time either judging or exhibiting at the International in the Chicago Stockyards. Each will also speak of their opportunities judging "The Majors" and shows all over the world.

If you worked at the swine teaching farms at Iowa State, Michigan State or Purdue University you may want to tune in and listen also.

* Note this is a two-week episode* Catch the first half this week and tune in again next week to finish the discussion.
