Ep. 31: Oklahoma feeds the world (with Blayne Arthur)
Episode description: The Ellens* interview Secretary Blayne Arthur, the longest-serving secretary in Governor Stitt's administration, overseeing the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. Secretary Arthur shares her unlikely path to the cabinet, her deep roots in Oklahoma's 4-H and FFA community, and why agriculture matters to every Oklahoman — from food safety and rural infrastructure to youth development and economic opportunity. The conversation covers the Oklahoma Youth Expo, the challenges of social media in public service, and what it really means to be a state legislator year-round.
