Aron welcomes long time friend and trad archer extraordinaire Chris Parrino to the podcast.  Chris has been one of our most requested guests now that Aron is getting back into the traditional archery game.  Chris is a very effective hunter with the stick bow, having taken several animals including some massive Brown and Grizzly bears.  They go over some of those hunts, as well as some of the key points that make a successful trad bow hunter. 

Aron welcomes Jay Vallotton back to the show. Jay is an Emotional Health Guide, Pastor, and runs a men's discipleship program called BraveCo.  They have a good conversation going over mental, physical, and spiritual health.  They dive into stoicism, controlling your emotions, and different elements of self-discipline.   Another great conversation between these two over some non-typical topics.  

Aron welcomes Gregg McLeod from Green Beret Fitness to the podcast.  Green Beret Fitness is an athletic and endurance competition that reflects some of the things Gregg was tested on in the military.  Aron and him dive into some of the things that set GBF apart from other fitness races and make them one of the premiere events around.  

Aron welcomes Bruno Fallon back to the podcast.  Bruno is the Director of Operations for Born Primitive Tactical, retired military serviceman with 40+ years for active duty and DOD service.  As training, fitness, and health are paramount for both Bruno and Aron, they dive into diet, exercise, the sugar epidemic, and the importance of daily water intake.

Aron welcomes his dentist, Dan Hauck to the podcast.  Dan is a lifelong resident of Riverton, and has led quite the interesting life.  Dan is an avid hunter, fisher, and outdoorsman, and has been part of the Outdoor Dream Foundation, helping disabled youth and combat wounded veterans get into hunting and the outdoors.  Dan also dives into a darker time in his life, and his journey back!  An incredible podcast from one of Riverton's own.

Aron welcomes Kifaru's Tactical Rep "Wally" to the podcast. Wally has been working hand in hand with our lead designer Eric Bender to develop an all new rifle carrying system, dubbed the "Scabbard". He is also spearheading many of the training and outdoor skills camps that Kifaru will be offering in the future. Aron and him have a good time, maybe too good, talking about the new rifle carry system, future plans with the Kifaru Kollective, and a whole lot more over a bottle of Screwball.

Aron welcomes Clay Hayes back to the podcast.  Clay is the season 8 winner of the hit television show ALONE.  Aron and him recap his experience and how things have changed for him and his family since the show.  Great time as always catching up with Clay!

Aron welcomes Dan Gates to the podcast.  Dan works with CRWM or Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management.  They are one of the groups leading the charge against emotional wildlife regulation that have been plaguing Colorado as of late.  As a 501c4, they operate as political advocacy group that have a direct line to the capitol and work with many of the other conservation groups that many of us are a part of.  They discuss the past and present struggles that Colorado has had regarding wildlife regulation and the ballot based management decisions.
