Robbie sits down with Kristie Gill, a PhD student out of the College of Natural Resources at the University of Georgia, doing her field work in South Africa.

Number 2: Flashback: Jenny Lesieutre | Ground Zero For The Wild Horse Debate
Flashback Podcast to March 2025 (Episode 543): There are certain topics in this world that are likely the most controversial - wolves, feral cats, and wild horses. Wild Horses for some reason evoke such emotions that there has been little work done on exposing what is actually going on. We are starting to delve into this topic more and more and there is not greater place to talk about this topic than Nevada. Former Federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) employee Jenny Lesieutre is now speaking out around the management of wild horses after being involved in the space for almost two decades. As a horse owner and self-professed horse lover herself, you’ll find that it is not from a place of malice that she advocates for management, rather because they are destroying their own habitat and environment without badly needed management protocols - because leaving them alone isn’t working. This is a MUST LISTEN PODCAST. Update August 2026: You have likely seen the social media posts and New York Times article discussing the adminstrations new "rules" around gathers, horse slaughter, etc. As an update, nothing has changed. Everything around horses is the same as it has been for the last 20 years. Do you have questions we can answer?

Number 4: Episode 668 - Dale Lewis || From Poachers To Farmers
Robbie sits down with Dale Lewis, founder of COMACO (Community Markets for Conservation). Based in Zambia, Dale used the free market tit tackle a problem at the intersection of snaring, conservation and community upliftment. Dale’s pipeline allows community agricultural products to make their way in to market in exchange for conservation pledges, essentially buying their help in exchange for helping them get their products to market. It’s a genius maneuver that’s working well for everyone, including both the people and the wildlife on their landscape. Do you have questions we can answer?

Number 5: Episode 672 - Kody Bidwell | Florida’s 2nd Black Bear Season
Kody Bidwell, who replaced Travis Thompson at All Florida, joins Robbie to talk about the new black bear harvest season out of Florida. This will be the second year of the Florida Black Bear Season and the politics are already at play. Last year, after a crazy controversy where anti hunters bought up a bunch of tags, backfiring into the quota actually going UP this year because of science (a 25% increase!), Robbie and Kody get into the nuances of this second season, with Kody telling us the lay of the land and what things are looking like on the ground in Florida.
