  • Great stories

    I moved back to the Hudson Valley this summer after being away for about 15years, with only occasional visits. This podcast has been an incredible source of inspiration for hikes, history, books, and drives around the Catskills. It’s clued me into so many topics I wasn’t familiar with and reminded me of stories and places I forgot about.

    The banter between the guys is hilarious and Tad is quick as a whip with the dad jokes. Absolutely awesome podcast.

  • Awesome Podcast!

    I’m giving 5 stars so that my phone doesn’t get hacked. Hosts said if I don’t give 5 stars my electronics are at risk. I trust their expertise but that intro music…I don’t know. LOL!

  • Awesome Podcast!

    Passionate hosts who truly understand the outdoors and conservation. The recent episode nailed it pointing out how crowded hiking areas aren’t the place for inexperienced “weekend warriors” from New York City who think they’re hunters. Real hunters know the land, respect safety, and don’t confuse moving hikers with game.
