Oh boy what a week it's been! We weren't expecting to be back this quickly, buuuuuuuut what we said in the last podcast pissed off Randy (shocker). So this week we are joined by the LEGENDARY Dave Mercer.

We dive into his beginnings in the Fishing Industry and how he got his job at Bassmaster. We then move over to talking about the Bassmaster Classic from all of our perspectives, as we happened to all view it from a completely different lens.

And of course, we talk about the negative propaganda that has developed by Randy Blauket over the past few years, and how it's only gotten worse. We all offer more insights into what we talked about last Podcast, and clarity to what the root of the problem is.

Huge shoutout to Dave for coming on and chatting with us.
