EP 299. Texas Market Hunting, Game Laws, and Outlaws Part 2: Outlaw Gunners and Stings Oct 26, 2022

Show notes

Following the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which outlawed commercial sale of wildlife, the American public's demand for wild-harvested tablefare continued -- and there were folks that were more than happy to feed this lucrative demand, supplying barrel- and boat-loads of wild ducks and geese through backwater channels. In the second of this 2-part series, historic author Robert K. Sawyer describes a transitioning America, especially as it pertains to Texas, grappling with wildlife food versus conservation and later, conservation versus something that might only be described as recreation. Law enforcement may have started slowly, but culminated in a series of headliner busts that finally got folks attention. Part 1 of this 2-part series aired Wednesday, October 19, 2022. Refer to Sawyer's related links below for more information.

EP 298. Interlake Religion Oct 24, 2022

Show notes

Sandwiched between the massive lakes Winnipeg and Manitoba, the vast region colloquially known as the Interlake forms a giant migrator funnel for "Churchills" and other waterfowl. Goose hunting culture thrives here. Meeting with Troy Bennet and Dustin Dola over dinner, Ramsey gains insight into what its like growing up here, why goose hunting is so important, how waterfowl are hunted here versus other parts of Canada, and how local hunters may differ from some non-resident guests. He also begins to understand why his new buddies regard their own back yard as pretty damned special.

EP 294. D.I.'s Cajun Restaurant Reflects Local Way of Life Oct 13, 2022

Show notes

D.I.'s Cajun Restaurant is an unassuming building out in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by Tee Mamou Prairie rice fields in Acadia Parish, Louisiana. You know you're in the right place because the gravel-and-beer-cap parking lot is filled with locals that have eaten here for generations, enjoying live cajun music 3-4 nights weekly. Owner Sherry Fruge tells why and how she and her late husband, D.I., started the restaurant when farming got tough back in the '70s. Never dreaming that D.I.'s "special way of boiling crawfish" would become a local cultural icon that's since been inducted into the Cajun Music Hall of Fame, she describes hands-on involvement, memorable events, and why restaurant and community are one in the same.

EP 293. Louisiana Culture in a Bottle: Tabasco Sauce Story Oct 10, 2022

Show notes

In 1868, in the remote backwater reaches of south Louisiana's Avery Island, Edmund Mcllhenny invented Tabasco Sauce. While no one is sure how or why he came up with his proprietary elixir, the iconic company is now in its 6th generation of family ownership. Taking us down dark Louisiana bayous, historian Shane Bernard colorfully describes the Mcllehennys as businessmen, hunters and conservationists, telling amazing stories about the remote region; nutria rats, bears, plume hunting, duck hunting, bird sanctuaries, bird banding and much more. You'd have never thought so much goodness could fit into a tiny condiment bottle!
