Favorite Podcast

Great Show, Great Hosts, Great Information! I typically don’t enjoy conversational podcasts, but these guys nail it. Super down to earth guys that have a great knowledge base to share. I respect that they don’t pander to one another and question each other sometimes. They are also humble enough to talk about non successes, and pose questions. Keep up the good work guys!

Enjoying the podcast

This is a real Alaska podcast about hunting. I hunt their part of the state and they hunt mine. I learn about the north and chuckle about them learning about Southeast.
