This week we’re missing Cal but everyone else is in studio and good news: we all deserve lashings! Gavin finally has his chance to punish Carter for the long awaited fantasy football season celly, and Carter doles out his disgust with the rest of us for doubting his LIONS ARE FRAUDS take. The head coaching circus is in full swing, and we discussed the potential job openings and the  coaches who actually lost their jobs. Then, who would’ve thunk it…INDIANA IS THE CFP NATIONAL CHAMPION. We discuss the incredible story of the Hoosiers and Curt Cignetti. Finally the wolves skid and the Wild are learning to play together.

So much has happened over the last couple weeks in the world of sports. Alabama is no longer sitting atop the college football world, the SEC looks nothing like it used to, the nfl is more competitive than ever, Gavin is the king of fantasy football and head coaches have been shipped out for better and worse pastures. We talk all of this plus Myles Garrett getting the single season sack record and why his record is validated. Cal goes on a Vikings related rant before we close out with NFL head coach firings and opportunities. Who do you think will win the Super Bowl?

Joey travelled down to Kansas to spend a few days with our friends at CBI. In between the good times and the hunting, he sat down with Roy and Drake Carter, owners of Carters Big Island, for a conversation about their tagline, “Pass It On or Lose It”. Roy and Drake explain to us what that means, where it comes from, and why it’s so important to both of them that we share what we know with the next generation of waterfowl hunters.

For Minnesota native and 2009 World Duck Calling Champion Mike Anderson, everything has changed and all the while stayed the same. Mike’s love and passion for duck hunting and duck calling have transcended time and place. Mike looks back on trips in his old Ranger across the country to meet up with calling buddies at competitions and gatherings, or hunting trips to Arkansas with longtime friends. It seems even though time has passed, Mike is still doing a lot of the same, placing 6th in this years World Duck Calling Championship in Stuttgart and traveling the country with his family and friends, hunting ducks whenever and wherever he can. We talk about what’s changed in today’s waterfowl landscape, the competition calling scene and Mike shares some of his favorite hunts and memories.

This week we’re lucky enough to have World Champion Duck caller Mike Anderson joining us and while Mike was here he started to offer some thoughts on topics we’ve discussed in the past involving Duck number surveys and our season date structure. Instead of having a behind the scenes conversation, we decided to record it for all of you so you can gain some insight into the inner workings of the data we all rely on. If you’re a Duck Hunter this is a must listen episode! Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

Hoping everyone had an amazing Christmas with friends and family! We wanted to sit down this week and go through some playoff predictions! Who actually has a shot in the NFL Playoffs this year? Have the Bucs all but pissed away a promising season? Can the packers actually pull it together after losing some key pieces or will the Rams stay locked in and finish strong? In the AFC, chaos ensues as the Broncos hang on to a very unconvincing 1 seed and the Bills seem to look like two different teams from week to week. We also play a special edition of Say What?! that Carter put together for Cal and Nathaniel. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

Merry Christmas to all of our amazing listeners. We want to say thank you for all your support in 2025. This week we’re joined by the 2009 World Duck Calling Champion, Mike Anderson of Minnesota, to play another round of Flyways Jeopardy. We heard all the comments that it was a little too difficult last time and Carter put together what he called an “extremely easy” board of questions. But was it actually that easy? Listen in and play along! Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

We’ve gotten a lot of people messaging us saying these new hunters don’t know any of the standard waterfowl hunter etiquette. There are a few simple ground rules that everybody should know when you decide to start hunting birds. So for this week’s Ten Minute Tuesday we discuss exactly that. We’re not saying this is the only way to do it or that every place and situation don’t have their own special unwritten rules and norms, but this should give some folks a decent start. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!
