The boys are back after a wild weekend that had everyone scattered across the country. Casey recaps his trip to CMA Fest in Nashville, including Busch Light’s Flavor Showdown, surprise performances, celebrity sightings, and a crowd that nearly tore down the fences during Waka Flocka Flame’s unforgettable set.
Meanwhile, Chris heads to Chicago for the first-ever Hall of Fame Challenge, spending a day on the golf course with sports legends Brian Urlacher, Jeremy Roenick, Dennis Savard, Toni Kukoč, and Harold Baines. The stories, competitiveness, and personalities of some of Chicago’s greatest athletes prove one thing: Hall of Famers never stop competing.
The conversation then shifts to a topic that struck a nerve across the outdoor community. After a social media post sparked thousands of shares and comments, the guys revisit Oregon’s controversial IP 28 proposal and discuss why hunters, anglers, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts need to pay attention to what’s happening beyond their own backyard.
Plus, NHL and NBA playoff talk, LPGA stars arriving in Midland, a new golf gambling game called Snake-Fish-Camel, and plenty of laughs along the way.
From Nashville stages to Chicago fairways to the issues shaping the future of the outdoors, this episode covers it all.
Wilder Minds is officially presented by ALP Nicotine Pouches, and the guys kick off Episode 57 with the big announcement before rolling into the final stories of turkey season. From Jason’s shocking last-day miss at seven yards to Gibson’s river-bottom roost hunt before heading off to summer baseball in New York, this episode wraps the spring woods with a mix of laughs, lessons, and the kind of mornings that make the season worth it.
The crew also looks back on a strong year of turkey hunts, including youth hunts, first-timers, and the unforgettable Herman Moore and Scott Mitchell hunt now available on the Keefer Brothers app. From there, the conversation shifts into current outdoor issues, proposed hunting and fishing regulations, and the importance of staying aware as sportsmen.
To close it out, the guys talk summer plans, CMA Fest with Busch Light, TAC events in Michigan, old Jeeps, trout rivers, and the simple pull of getting back outside when the weather finally turns.
This week, the boys cover a little bit of everything...and somehow it all makes perfect sense. What starts as a debate over Busch Light's next flavor quickly spirals into stories from the glory days, complete with beer holsters, potato guns, snow goose camps, and a legendary encounter with a bed allegedly covered in Babe Winkelman hair. Along the way, they revisit some unforgettable hunting memories, from conservation-order snow goose tornadoes in Missouri to waterfowl adventures across Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
But at the heart of this episode is a conversation every dog owner will appreciate. The crew dives deep into the world of Labradors, discussing bloodlines, breeding, training, and the unique bond between hunters and their dogs. From Annie's early development as a driven young American Lab to stories of Kenai, Blue, Grizz, and the next generation of hunting companions, it's an honest look at what makes a great dog…and why they become such an important part of our lives.
As turkey season winds down, the guys also share a few fresh stories from the field and look ahead to the final days of chasing gobblers before spring comes to a close.
It's a mix of hunting stories, dog talk, old memories, and the kind of conversation that happens when friends sit down with no agenda and let the stories take over.
Turkey season is in full swing, and the boys are back with another wild one. In this episode, they recap a week of close-call gobbler hunts, storm chaos, busted setups, old birds with attitude, and the kind of camp laughter that makes spring turkey season so addicting.
From Mike “The Gladhander” Passaglia’s five-yard turkey hammer job to an educated longbeard that refused to break, the conversation rolls through calling strategy, decoy lessons, Winchester Longbeard performance, and why some gobblers just do whatever they want. The crew also dives into new gear from Eberlestock, upcoming app content, the chaos of spring production season, hockey memories, Montreal playoff energy, Mike Tyson, and a few stories that go completely off the rails in true Wilder Minds fashion.
It’s hunting, gear, sports, old friends, and ridiculous stories…exactly the way a Wilder Minds episode should be.
Episode 54 of Wilder Minds is fueled by cold mornings, bad decisions, Busch Lights, and gobblers that apparently hold grudges for a full decade. The crew celebrates the 10-year anniversary of the legendary 989 Gobbler Club and revisits the hunt that started it all, including the shocking return of turkeys to the exact same field where the “Fallujah” massacre happened ten years ago. Coincidence? Probably. Revenge mission? Also possible.
From frozen decoys and flooded boots to grown men laying prone in tall grass like Navy SEALs, this episode is peak turkey season chaos. The guys break down one of the wildest spring hunts they’ve had in years, complete with birds sprinting to the decoys and plenty of whiskey-fueled camp stories.
The episode also features an unforgettable hunt with former Detroit Lions legends Herman Moore and Scott Mitchell, who traded NFL pressure for the emotional rollercoaster of their first turkey hunts. Turns out, standing over a game-winning pass and staring down a gobbler at 15 yards feel a little more similar than you’d think.
And because no Wilder Minds episode stays on track for long, the conversation spirals into hole-in-ones, catastrophic golf swings, legendary divots preserved like museum artifacts, and why today’s golfers are basically just turkey hunters with polos and Bluetooth speakers.
It’s springtime in Michigan: the birds are gobbling, the boys are running on caffeine and poor judgment, and somehow the stories keep getting better.
Spring is here and the guys are back in the studio cracking cold Busch Light Apples and gearing up for the final stretch of turkey season. The conversation bounces from hunting plans and close calls to the chaos of social media, where they sound off on keyboard warriors and where the line gets crossed. Along the way, they mix in some sports talk with NHL playoff moments, a little nostalgia from the rise of Hulk Hogan, and a quick take on the ongoing tension between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. Jason also share a legendary story about snagging a “million-dollar divot” from Lee Trevino after a hole-in-one moment. The episode wraps around one of their most memorable hunting stories…the pursuit of “Shakes,” a giant Kansas whitetail, and the moment everything unraveled at full draw. It’s a laid-back, unfiltered episode packed with stories, laughs, and real talk from the field.
Fresh off wrapping the Dropped behind-the-scenes series, the guys are back in the studio...and the conversation goes everywhere. From viral throwback hunts pulling millions of views to the chaos of social media comment sections, thisepisode dives into the wild world of online reactions, keyboard warriors, and why the internet remains undefeated.
They break down the explosion of old Alaska moose footage finding new life, the strategy behind short-form storytelling, and the reality of putting content out for the masses...good, bad, and ridiculous. Along the way, you’ll get classic WilderMinds banter, including the latest social media trends (yes, grown men trying...and failing to skip), algorithm rabbit holes, and the unfiltered truth about engaging with critics.
The conversation shifts back outdoors with the kickoff of Michigan turkey season...early mornings, roost hunts, and why “angry time” might be the real play. Toss in NHL playoff talk, draft debates, and one of the most random Hollywood storiesyou’ll ever hear (involving a beer with some all-time legends), and you’ve got a full ride.
This episode is equal parts hunting, storytelling, and straight-up chaos...exactly how Wilder Minds should be.
Watch, listen, and remember: if you leave a negative comment... don’t expect a reply.
In Episode 51, the guys wrap up Season Nine of Dropped with a raw, unfiltered look at what this journey has become. From the early days of trending on social media when the show first aired, to now, over 100 episodes deep, this conversation reflects on how far it’s come, what’s changed, and what still drives them back into the wild.
This season hit different. A return to the roots. No overproduction, no forced moments...just the grind of the river, the weight of the unknown, and the reality of living off the grid day after day. They break down the highs, the struggles, and the lessons learned. From navigating dangerous rapids in failing light, to dealing with real-life setbacks you can’t plan for, like failing eyesight in critical moments.
The final stretch of the journey delivers everything: close calls on the river, hard-earned meat, brutal cold, and one last unforgettable night under the northern lights...capped off by a massive bull moose walking through camp.
But this episode goes deeper than the hunt. It’s about evolution of balancing family, purpose, and passion. It’s about what it takes to keep doing this year after year, and how the mindset shifts from proving something…to wanting to pass it on.
The ninth installment of the Dropped Series delivers the moment everything has been building toward. After days of grinding through the Alaskan backcountry...floating, glassing, and second-guessing every decision, the crew finally finds themselves exactly where preparation meets opportunity.
What starts as another push downriver quickly turns into the hunt they’d been envisioning the entire trip. A quiet bend, a subtle shape out of place… and just like that, instinct takes over. No wasted motion. No words. Just a team moving in sync, executing a moment they’ve rehearsed a hundred times in their heads.
It’s about the pressure that builds over days in the wild and the emotional release when it finally breaks. It’s about preparation, trust, and the unspoken rhythm between a group that’s done it together for years. From the intensity of the encounter to the methodical breakdown of the animal, the story captures the full-circle reality of the hunt... respect, responsibility, and the reward of earned success.
This is the turning point of the journey...the payoff, the perspective, and the reminder of why they do it. And as the rafts push back into the current, one thing is clear: the story isn’t over yet.
As the 10-part Alaska series pushes into its final stretch, Episode 49 of Wilder Minds goes behind the scenes of one of the most pivotal and revealing moments of the journey. With only days remaining, the crew finds themselves deep in unforgiving country: low on food, racing the changing season, and hunting in terrain that finally feels right…but may have come just a little too late.
This episode pulls back the curtain on Episode 8, where a massive push downriver leads to what could be the best moose camp of the entire trip. Close encounters, split-second decisions, and the reality of hunting vast, low-density wilderness all collide as the guys break down what worked...and what didn’t. It’s a raw look at the difference between expectation and reality in true backcountry hunting, where success isn’t measured by a kill, but by endurance, decision-making, and the grind itself.
The conversation dives into the storytelling philosophy behind Dropped—why they refuse to cut out the slow days, and how documenting every mile, every call, and every missed opportunity creates a more honest narrative than traditional hunting media.
With time running out and momentum building, this episode sets the stage for a dramatic final push, while delivering plenty of laughs, including an unforgettable backcountry food prank that brings past hunts full circle.
The end is near… and everything is about to change.
