Episode 20 - Jules McQueen & Jana Waller | From Turkey to Bears: Hunting Adventures and Women Empowerment


Listen Later

Fred is joined by Jana Waller of Skullbound TV Fame and Jules McQueen, President of Carbon TV, to discuss their experiences with hunting (and little bit about their love for Game of Thrones!) After catching up about their plans for turkey hunting and bear hunting in the spring, the conversation turns to a wide range of topics such as the challenges of being a non-resident hunter, the excitement of having multiple species tags, and the topic of women in the outdoors and the challenges they face, including criticism and attacks from both men and women. The host and guests discuss the importance of representation and the positive impact that mothers' involvement in outdoor activities can have on their children. The trio also touches on the need for better communication and storytelling to convey the benefits of hunting and outdoor pursuits to legislators and the general public. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the importance of respectful and honest dialogue to bridge the gap between hunters and non-hunters. They emphasize the need to make connections and explain the deeper meaning behind hunting and conservation. They also highlight the significance of voting and getting involved in conservation organizations to protect hunting rights and wildlife. The conversation ends with a call to normalize conversations about hunting and to support and encourage women in the outdoors.
