I got to talk to filmmaker Shane Anderson this week. We talked about his early start to fishing, professional skiing, the film industry, Burkheimers, the difficulties of telling your story, dam removal, mental clarity in fishing, and what I need to know before jumping into river snorkeling.

This week I'm joined by Kirsten Kinsman for our first in person recording in over a year. We discussed her first time fishing, discovering steelhead and her first solo one, learning to row, trout fishing, the condensed time of COVID, and being outfished by children. As this is our first episode back in-person, we of course had some audio issues, please excuse the somewhat quieter sound while we work out the kinks of social interactions.

This episode I'm speaking with Tim Arsenault of Bridge Fly Fishing. We talked about choosing fishing over school, fly shops, being ruined by spey casting, designing Bridge lines, line tips(pun intended), and a divine muse.

This week I got the chance to talk to Matthew DeLorme. We talk fishing with family, learning languages, photographing for Trek, woodcuts and printmaking, entomology, cutthroat, and peanut butter offerings to our overlords.

This episode I'm joined by Jeff Butler. We had a really great time discussing atlantic salmon, right brain tendencies, post military life, learning spey, wilderness survival training, skating, and canoes.

This week I got to virtually sit down with Steve Szeliga. We got to talking about learning to fish, floating, our mutual intricate knowledge of deep sea fishing, tying in hand, dading, and nap based time telling.

This week I got the chance to speak with Simon Gawesworth. We had a great time discussing growing up along side a fly fishing school, traditional rods in the UK, working with Rio, the trials and tribulations of moving, the joy of teaching, and how he got started fishing with Goldfish.

I had an amazing talk with Mark Sherwood for this week's show. We discussed everything, how he got started fishing, the fun of difficulty, language immersion, Native Fish Society, the importance of local advocates for rivers, all sorts of conservation efforts, and just a teeny tiny bit about white water. All that and we have some fun news too.

I got the chance to talk to Joe Rossano for this week's episode. While our conversation may have been abruptly cut short by an ice storm we still got to discuss his love for small stream fishing, painting, nostalgia for "the good'ole days," the trials and tribulations of engraving, his latest work, WWII pilots, and so much more.

This week I'm joined by Jake and Jesse Dodd. We got to talking about how they both started fishing, switching to spey, making dreams come true at Simms, being trout spoiled, a plague of party barges, and the most dangerous game......mushrooms.
