March 09 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.
