On this show, Adam is joined by Steve Opat, a true International Man of Mystery, with the beard to prove it, and a hell of a great dude.

Steve is a Field Editor with us at the Journal of Mountain Hunting, calls Alaska home, and spends a ton of time in the field. Overall, this guy is one of the most passionate hunters and writers you'll ever have the good fortune of spending time with.

Adam and Steve discuss storytelling, media, technology, conservation, and the shenanigans that transpired at the 2019 Sheep Show. This show is as eclectic as they come!

On this episode, Adam is joined by Dustin and Ara from MTNTOUGH Fitness Lab.

Adam, Ara, and Dustin take a deep dive on the difference between loving the process of training versus focusing on the outcome, and how an "always ready" mindset will improve all aspects of your life.

If you struggle to stay consistent with a training program or tend to follow a boom/bust cycle year after year, this is the episode you need to listen to.

This is one of the best training focused shows we've featured in a long, long time.

On this episode, Adam is joined by one of the most accomplished off-road endurance athletes to ever shoulder a backpack, Andrew Skurka.

Renowned for his solo backpacking feats, Andrew's list of accomplishments is extensive. He was named "Adventurer of the Year" by both National Geographic and Outside Magazineand has backpacked 30,000 plus miles (yes you read that right) while pursuing his passion for trekking.

Beyond his endurance resume, Andrew is a hunter, and one hell of a curious guy that puts a lot of thought into everything he does. There's plenty to take away from this conversation between Adam and Andrew.

On this episode, author Jack Carr is back to share his stories and insights from a recent trip to South Africa, where he was helping train an anti-poaching unit, and doing some research for another book in the James Reece series.

Regardless of your interest in Africa from a hunting perspective, what happens there matters on a global scale. Jack's observations and perspective on African hunting, poaching, and game management will help you understand a deeply misunderstood place.
