  • Best hunting podcast out there!

    I found the Rokcast about a year ago, the content is amazing and I have learned a lot from listening. The only thing I would like is more episodes about Oregon deer hunting.

  • Good podcast

    Please hire a sound engineer. Robbie sounds like he is talking through a balled up sock and he’s sitting across the room from his microphone. Other than that, the hunting content is very informative. I wish Robbie would stick to exclusively talking about that subject, because when he veers off course, I start wondering why I subscribe.

  • Use to be good

    Use to cover all kinds of hunting topics and species. Now it’s just mule deer 98% of the time. And Robby Denning reading a book to you like you’re a child. Totally worthless now.

  • Genuine

    Having had the opportunity to meet and shoot with Robbie, he is as genuine in person as he seems on the podcast. Great show, great people, great information, great platform in Rokslide.

  • Mule deer

    I enjoy hearing from the biologists on mule deer. I would like to hear from them about the percentage of bucks that make it to each age class. In the Wyoming range, Idaho range, or even Utah. Maybe a comparison between otc and draw units, or even in regions

    Keep up the rockcast. I look forward to it each week

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Gear Reviews: Lathrop Super Wides, Peak Refuel, KUIU Icon 6, and Patagonia Nano-Air
Q: What makes the Kuiu Icon 6 frame different from earlier models?
The Icon 6 uses a redesigned frame that is taller and wider, with a carbon-thermoplastic composition for improved load stability, and all bags are interchangeable on the same frame to simplify customization.
The No-BS Guide to Hunting Suppressors with Ryan Avery
Q: What should Western hunters consider when choosing a suppressor?
Focus on a system that minimizes variables for reliability, prefers direct-thread one-piece designs, and balances weight, length, and decibels to maintain practical hunting usability and quick follow-up shots.
The No-BS Guide to Hunting Suppressors with Ryan Avery
Q: Are longer suppressors always better for hearing safety and sound suppression?
Not necessarily; while larger suppressors generally provide more volume and better suppression, the value is balanced against weight, length, and practical field use, with a preference for shorter, lighter, one-piece designs when possible.
The No-BS Guide to Hunting Suppressors with Ryan Avery
Q: Why would you want a longer barrel or overall weapon system when using a suppressor?
The discussion emphasizes velocity and ballistics as the main trade-off for longer barrels, with some hunters preferring longer setups for higher muzzle velocity, while many others favor shorter, lighter systems for field practicality and maneuverability.
Mapping Utah’s Big Game Migrations with Makeda Hanson
Q: What do you do on a day-to-day basis as the Wildlife Migration Initiative Coordinator?
My daily work centers on managing and interpreting GPS collar data to identify critical habitats and connectivity corridors, coordinating with internal teams and external partners to plan habitat restoration, and guiding policy and restoration efforts to keep migrations viable amid development and drought.
