Join us as we talk to State Representative Tom Kunse from Michigan's 100th district to discuss current legislation that will impact outdoorsmen and women in the state.

We cover:

* Tom's background including his time in the Michigan House of Representatives

* Ted Nugent's recent trip to Lansing with a concealed firearm and the security debacle that ensued (more people carry in the state house than you'd think)

* Tom presents 2 bills currently being discussed that will impact how both the DNR and EGLE interact with private property.

* The state of Michigan's DNR and whether additional funding will solve their problems

* Why Michigan doesn't allow Sand Hill Crane hunting, except in certain circumstances and the moral issues this presents

* Rules that only seem to negatively impact hunters without positively impacting wildlife (killing and wasting nuisance geese, antler point restrictions, banning the use of bait)

* The difference between a wildlife department run by biologists vs. a department run as a police force

* The waste of taxpayer dollars on frivolous lawsuits

* Should the government shutdown impact the publics ability to purchase a hunting license

* Recent increases in hunting pressure despite a decrease in hunter numbers

* Many bills brought forth are made by people who don't understand hunting tradition and it's impact on the state which it is why it is so important that hunters get out and vote!

* How to get involved in the decisions that are being made everyday that impact your way of life

In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we take a look at one of the strangest and deadliest natural disasters you’ve probably never heard of — the 1986 Lake Nyos disaster in Cameroon. Overnight, a silent cloud of carbon dioxide erupted from the lake, wiping out over 1,700 people and countless animals in minutes.

We break down what caused it, the terrifying science behind limnic eruptions, and how events like this could still happen elsewhere.

Plus, in his podcast debut, our Director of Photography Andy shares his own brush with danger — a close call with a charging rhino — and we talk about how these rare encounters can change your understanding of nature’s power. Watch our HISTORY Channel show on:

In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we break down proposed legislation that would allow for the sale of federal public lands. We talk about why this could be a major blow, not just to hunters and outdoor enthusiasts, but to wildlife conservation as well. Selling off public lands threatens critical animal habitat, disrupts migration patterns, and puts species at risk.

The team picked up the new 2025 Tracker Grizzly 1650 T Prairie Wings Edition Duck boat! We talk about features and using the boat this coming Duck season.

Then we kick off part one of our South Africa trip. We talk about the long flight, how we were treated as tourists, and what it was like navigating local stores to gather supplies. We filled SCI Blue Bags with candy, coloring books, toothbrushes, and children’s Bibles and delivered them to a school for kids aged 3 to 5. Their reaction was humbling and unforgettable.
