This week's guest is Qld ringer Paige from Season 8 of Australian Survivor. She takes us through how she got on the show in the first place plus provides a great insight into what really goes on behind the scenes with cast and crew, her "nemesis" Rogue, and an epic battle with a crab.

Her exit from the show saw her unfortunately cop some flack from the media and online trolls for what she is passionate about - hunting. We talk about how ridiculous this was plus learn Paige's process for pig hunting and what's involved in pro roo shooting too. Hear about hunting in Africa, wild dog encounters, bronco riding plus much, much, more!

Enjoy!

This week we link up separately to discuss vague 3 month absences and new work opportunities, some podcast etiquette and bluetooth shoes. There's a Hamilton Island trip and 2x ADA hunts to recount, as well as our usual agreeing to disagree on which deer to shoot and when. Capping off we talk about zeroing your rifle at various distances as suggested by a listener.

Enjoy!

   This week we have Mostyn from Gunforce (our favourite gun shop). We talk about his IPSC shooting and how he got into it, some poor man's geopolitics as well as some useful info on things like ammunition limits, shooting techniques, polygonal barrels, and the need for a unified voice from shooting organisations.

   Mostyn is quite knowledgeable and very easy to listen to.  We learn about his younger years in scouts and other outdoor pursuits like rock-climbing and scuba diving; the later forming a mad tangent where he and Couchy swap some crazy stories. Mostyn also discusses the pivotal role his dad has played in the shooting world including the origins of IPSC.

We start this week with some badly told jokes before discussing  our new hunting block and using thermal again. Then we move on to carbs (yes carbs) on a boat, weddings, deer hunts, prison sex, it's all in there, and on a more serious note we talk men's mental health.

Sorry Couchy but cats are shit. Hear why as we resurrect an ND segment.

This week we have Chris Waters, otherwise known as The Australian Huntsman across his podcast and YouTube channels. He's also the president of Australian Hunters Club and the creator of HuntingTrips.com.au. 

Chris is a great communicator and he has a great message to spread around being a proactive and positive influence in the hunting community. We cover how all the above got started, as well as discussing 'that' wild dog video, his move to country living, e-bikes, and an inspiring story on how to reinvent yourself.

CAUTION: If you own a .270 you might not like this episode!....but press on anyway and find out why gunsmith Nik from ICEng isn't your biggest fan. We learned a lot in this episode as Nik demonstrated his technical expertise in the gunsmithing and custom engineering space. Hopefully you'll pick up a few things too as we get to know Nik and have a good laugh along the way.

This week we have Daniel from Firearm Owners United. He's a biologist, a hunter, has worked in gun shops and also runs Eureka Tactical. We definitely learn a few things while having a bit of light hearted debate over the impact of deer on the Australian environment ..(mostly Josh). He sure has a unique perspective in the shooting/hunting community but it's  advantageous to have him in our corner rather than against.  Some quality banter in there too. Yes, the canal debate is raised again.

....well altitude-wise anyway. This week we recap what we've been up to in the season break. 

The Soggy Dorito set sail on its maiden voyage and we popped over the Vic border for a scout/hunt on public land in Vic High Country. This included Josh waxing lyrical about deer conservation and recounting getting stuck on a muddy track late at night. The sphincters were well and truly twitching!
