Scott and I talked barely long enough to get through the notes and could have really went longer but we did hit a number of topics of interest.

May 02, 2026 Tim Riley, managing our forests and much more.
Tim and I could talk longer but this is a good 2 hours. As a new Michigan DNR biologist we started right away with what he wants to see happen in his area.

March 23, 2026 Lola Eaton, young trap shooter and her first time bird hunt.
Lola was the lucky youth who benefitted from my Axis Challenge at the 2025 SASSS Classic. A series of gentlemanly wagers raised some funds to take a young shooter out hunting.
Myself and Andrew Frank guided for Lola and family friend Kyler for a few hours earlier this month.

March 09, 2026 Jes Flechsig, a lady of the uplands.
WARNING!! This may be my longest podcast yet. Jes and I talk quite a bit about the woman's perspective of the outdoors and a bit about bro cultures influence on the lady hunter. We both would like some serious input and feedback from the listener on this topic. Enjoy the Podcast.

January 15, 2026 Matt Gay, Pigeon shooting and more.
Matt and I get rabbit trailed early but finally get to the topic of pigeon shooting. Its a fascinating topic for me and this conversation only is a small beginning to the topic.

John and I could obviously talk much longer but we kept it reasonable. He spends a good amount of time in the Dakota grasslands with his setters.
