Beasts Of Burden

In this episode, we are deep into Forest Stand Improvement or FSI season. Be it we are back in the timber slaying trees instead of deer we work up an appetite. I talk about some different healthier snacks I've been making to avoid those midwesten tendicies of swinging by Caseys on the way home, but also to stay energized in the timber.
I also talk about how to have an elaborate approach to your FSI practicies. Think of mosacis when addressing your timber. You do not have to do perform one single pracrtice when enhancing your timber it could be a variety of techniques to create different forms of disturbances. I hope you enjoy this episode thank you for listening!

In this episode, I talk about the new growing obsession of whitetail deer. Focusing on scouting to up and opportunities as I manage pracitcally manage a new farm after the mulching. I hope this epiosde is helpful and aids in thsoe with the same challenge of managing a farm after a restoration project.

In this episode, I talk about some new career changes. My main focus has been work and studying for this new career. Thanks for tuning in and enjoy the show!

In this episode, I interview host of the Bigfoot Society Podcast: Jeremiah Bryon. Jeremiah has created a platform for folks that have experienced this phenomenon of "Bigfoot" "Sasquatch" Sabe" the beast of many names, to have a platform to come on and share their experiences. No judgement, no leading, just extremely interesting stories.

I know this is a different interview from the norm, but I'm a different cat. I have an interest in the subject and quite frankly my dear I don't give a damn; it's my podcast. I thought this would highlight the weird and oh the beautiful "woo" of Bigfoot. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. Check out Bigfoot Society on Youtube, Facebook, Instagram and if you have a story please get a hold of Jeremiah!

In this episode, I chat with Jace Elliott. Iowa DNR Whitetail Deer Biologist. In this interview Jace and I chat about the reality of managing Iowa deer herds with EHD in the environment. Jace and I discussed managing deer herds, how many is it ok to take, how those with high EHD cases should manage deer, how the DNR in Western Iowa is working with hunters and landowners to help grow the deer population back to where it was prior to EHD, the future of CWD in Iowa, the role of predators and deer numbers, and how Iowa needs a culture shift to allow more private land access to be more effective in managing deer numbers and recruitment for future hunters.

Folks, it's been a wild day. Clearly in the audio you can hear my kids being kids asking questions. I need to go back and listen to the show and see which links I mentioned to provide. I will add links to studies so you folks can inform yourselves as well.

Here are the links I do remember:

Why Are Deer on the Decline in Western Iowa:

Both the Doe Hunter Registry and EHD or Bluetongue Reporting Buttons are on same page

In this episode, I explore the correspondence of the cedar removal project and my emotional garbage. As the cedar trees are mulched I also process my emotional garbage. I hope you find this episode interesting. I am uncomfortable about making this episiode about myself however, it is a breath of fresh air to think and process emotions more clearly instead of the feeling of being bogged down and over burden. Thank you for tagging along on this ride.

In this episode, I decided to create a new radah episode. Exploring the Hebrew tern "radah" to describe that dubious term in scripture "subdue". I start off talking about a recent hunting trip, the progress of the cedar mulching. I give a health update regarding finding specific foods that actually affect my body negatively. I tie in the diet journeyt with radah. I do go into a rant of ego, not dealing with your junk, how it hurts your faith, and finally we had a surprise guest appearance of my wife Jessica. Hope you found this fun and enjoyable thank you for listening!

In this episode, I introduce the one and only Jessica Hickenbottom Knox aka Tamer of the Beast! Folks, I wanted to hang out and talk about whatever with my wife. I loved having her one and she will be back for more! We talked about food, farm life, eating right, seed oils, parenting, the future, everything! I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

In this special I share some encounters with a demon, the Devil, and to brighten the room angles!
Have a fun and safe Halloween and happy hunting!

In this episode, I go over developing a stategy to tackle invaives. It's an overwhelming task however you can do this. You as a landowner or a contractor have the power to tackle this problem. You need to break down the infestation so you can compartmentalize each area and address each area accordingly. I hope you found this episode helpful in your land stewardship and conservation endeavors
