A man of many names and many incredible stories - Karl J.P. Smith, Karl Sparks, Doctor Sparks - joins the show!  Karl draws a direct connection between his storytelling days at Philmont campfires to what he does today - working as a traveling professional storyteller.  From accidental and somewhat haphazard vison quests and backcountry  musical performances, to moments of humble reflection and growth, Karl's heart and love for Philmont is evident and contagious.
