EP 613. When you Come to a Fork in the Road: Mid-South Wrester, Bodyguard to the Killer, More! Sep 01, 2025

Show notes

Michael Lee's life reads like a Forrest Gump-style when-you-come-to-a-fork-in-the-road-take-it Southern novel. Except that it's all true. Starting out humbly enough as a shoeshine boy in his dad's smalltown Mississippi barber shop--where he was once invited to swim in a king's swimming pool--he later played champion-level college football, looped for years on the Mid-south Wresting circuit, worked his way through local law enforcement ranks and became body guard to none other that The Killer himself, Mr. Jerry Lee Lewis. Along his journey he met folks you wouldn't believe, picking up stories--and insights--that'll make you laugh, raise your eyebrows and shake your head. This epsiode if full of grit, heart and behind the scenes tales and insights from a heckuva life.

EP 611. Cries of the Savanna: A Non-Hunter Becomes Advocate Aug 25, 2025

Show notes

A non hunter. A safari in Tanzania. A perspective forever flipped. Sue Tidwell talks about Cries of the Savanna, why she--a non-hunter--defends ethical hunting, a moment in the marsh that forever changed her views, and how the shocking footage she recently shared of eco-tourists harassing wildlife puts "non-consumptive use" on its ear! A must-listen on conservation, ethics, and what it really means to love wildlife--like only we hunters do.

EP 609. Arkansas Public Land Duck Hunters Aug 18, 2025

Show notes

For Jeremy Brown, Todd Ezzi and Bryce Decker, Arkansas public land duck hunting isn't just something to do--it's a way of life. And it's affected their lives in more ways than one. Gathered around the workbench at Traditions Leathercraft in Oklahoma City preceding Delta Waterfowl's Duck Hunters Expo, we discuss their duck hunting origins, influences, and approaches to hunting public lands in Arkansas; changes they've since experienced; "lighting ducks;" the better and worse; hunting techniques and strategies; and respective life trajectories their lives have taken because of Arkansas public land duck hunting experiences.
