This episode is something special. Recorded on location at a campsite the night before a scout, I sit down with my dad, Carl (also known as “Phumblemitts”), for a fireside conversation. We talk about some of our best memories from years in the marsh together, his journey with Parkinson’s, and what it’s like to step away from duck hunting after a lifetime of passion. It’s a heartfelt father–son reflection about hunting, family, and the end of an era.
