  • Nashville show

    Got me and my sons tickets to the live show. Ought to have them out in a rural high school and give them the venues money they charge. Be easier to get into and can avoid big cities. Looking forward to the show but not Nashville lol. Love the podcast!

  • This is a fantastic hunting and fishing podcast

    This is one of the ideal podcasts to listen to if or if not you are a hunter or just somebody wanting to listen to an education podcast. I loved learning about the bear population and bear hunting in Florida. This is a fantastic resource and helps me personally learn how to notice things that I would never notice like a coon dog or bear population charts which I would have never have paid attention to before listening to this podcast. Keep up the good work!!!!
