Well, you're feeling that guy. 33 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: He's never touched the book. He's a professional salesman, well trained, 34 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: has never touched the book. But we brought him in 35 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: just to work up a sales pitch to sell it. 36 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: He's working on it right now.

M booked 43 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: to try to talk people into just doing me a 44 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: humongous favor and going and buying it. Now, um, it's 45 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: broken up into big game, so like you know, mostly 46 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: like antler and horn being gay, but also pigs and bears, 47 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: and then small game, which is like third small games, 48 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: so hairs, rabbit, squirrels, and then upland birds, waterfowl, freshwater fish, 49 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: saltwater fish, shellfish and crustaceans and reptiles and amphibians all about. 50 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: Have you ever seen a more beautiful pictorial of how 51 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: to butcher, snap and turtle? No, I've never seen a 52 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: Reptiles and Amphibians chapter. Uh No, it's beautiful. That's because 53 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: most cookbooks suck. I got you know you haven't heard this. 54 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I was gonna make everyone here 55 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: pretend that I didn't tell him. You guys are good 56 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: at lying, right, Okay, so lie for men it. But 57 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: Matt wasn't here, So let me ask you this. A 58 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: guy wrote in the this is interesting, speaking of wild game. 59 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: His freezer. He had his freezer went to put on him, 60 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: and it should have gone to put on him. So 61 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: he calls his insurance agent and he wants to make 62 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: a claim. On having lost all his wild game. So 63 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: he calls his insurance agment agent and the guy says, 64 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: I've been in this business for a decade and no 65 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: one's ever asked me about how to handle a claim 66 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: on having lost wild game, like what the value of 67 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: it is. So this guy goes to the state office 68 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: and comeback, comes back with this the Farm Bureau of 69 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: the State of Mississippi had come up with this formula 70 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 1: years ago. Lack of formula that since there's no comparable 71 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: market value for wild game, the only monetary replacement you 72 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: can get when you make a claim on losing your 73 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: wild game is the cost of processing. If you processed 74 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: your own wild game, your odd luck. So when you 75 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: lose a freezer, you lose a whole held because your 76 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: freezer goes to ship. Your insurance might own might compensate you, 77 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: but limited to what you paid to have it processed, 78 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: is the only value they all assigned to it. And 79 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: this guy just dropped like an invoice that said I 80 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: paid my wife a thousand dollars to process. You know, 81 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how how deep they did, but it's 82 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: really interesting. Man. He's like to do the road and 83 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: his talking about how you know. So, you know, we've 84 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: talked this a thousand times, but the you know, wild 85 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: game resources in this country were depleted horribly. Deer, turkey's 86 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: waterfowl past your pigeon driven to extinction, Buffalo nearly driven 87 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: to extinction by market hunters. So people that shot game 88 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: and sold it into commercial markets, um, and it made 89 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: a living doing it. And one of the one of 90 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: the many things we had to do to save American 91 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: wildlife was end the selling of wild game. We've up. Well, 92 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: this is a bunch too. Like the other night, I 93 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: was in a situation where I was almost forced to 94 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: go eat pen raised elk. So if you see elk 95 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: on a restaurant menu, it's not real elk. It's the 96 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: elk raised up on a you know, it's the elk 97 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: raised up on a on a farmer ranch. Right, It's 98 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: not what you can't sell wild game. So he's saying 99 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: that this is one downside of that system is you 100 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 1: can't get your you can't get properly compensated. What if 101 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: you shot the elk on a ten dollar you know, 102 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: paid guided trip, could you turn that in to the 103 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: insurance company. I certainly would try. Well, all I can 104 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: tell you. And this is just anecdotal because this is 105 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: just one mug from Mississippi. But that's what he had 106 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: happened to him, and that's what he found when he 107 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: researched it. Now, maybe if you have some hard hitting 108 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: lawyers or something. But I would tend to doubt it, 109 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: man tendant doubt because there you're paying for the experience. 110 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: But you would, You're right, be honest, you'd have a 111 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: you'd have an invoice, you'd have you know, a credit 112 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: card statement that was the dollars that generated that. But 113 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: I certainly think people should try. I think maybe one 114 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: agent to another may be able to slip one through. Yeah, 115 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: they'd be worth a try. Here's another thing we're talking about, 116 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: swamp rabbits, the cottontail rabbits would when a contail rabbit 117 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: ships in the woods, he doesn't seem to pay a 118 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: whole lot of tention where he goes. Um, he just goes, 119 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: what are you cool on swamp rabbits? That swamp rabbit is? 120 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: I absolutely do not know what it's still validus aquaticus Okay, 121 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: the Latin name, yep, Now I'm familiar. Do you do 122 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: you know? Do you know? Got it? Now? If you 123 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: go by Latin, I'm good. Do you know that rabbits 124 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: aren't rodents? Matt, I did know that rabbits were not rodents. 125 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: The lega morphs, they're a laga morphs. Absolutely. So. The 126 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: swamp rabbit is just a souped up cotton tail okay, 127 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: five six pound cotton tail who will jump in the 128 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: Mississippi River and swim across in order to evade a 129 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: hunting beetle. It is a indigenous to the South swamp rabbits. 130 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: We don't have them. Yeah, they're yeah, but but you 131 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: know not they can go into the deep South. But 132 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: they're also found in the in the border country. We've 133 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: been debating a lot about what is the South, you 134 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: know and them, But they're in Kentucky, Okay, Okay, which 135 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: is the South. But some people feel like it's nudge 136 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: and edging towards the north. One time, Lincoln, I think, 137 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: sat in Ohio and yelled across the river at at Kentucky, 138 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: mad at them about Southern issues. But so, uh, cottentil 139 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: normal contail rabbit, eastern cottentail, mountain cotton tail. He just 140 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: ships wherever he wants, right. They don't have any rhyme 141 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: or reason to it. But a swamp rabbit has uh 142 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: fidelity to his latrine, and Janice has seen this. Back 143 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: me up. A guy was pointing out, I was talking 144 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: about this, puzzling over it, you know. I was saying, like, 145 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: when they were in their environs where they live, it's 146 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: very flax. They live on the floodplain, and I thought, 147 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: maybe he gets a log he likes to go on. 148 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: He defecates on the log, and it just makes it 149 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: higher and higher up because a llama, who also has 150 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: fidelity to his latrine will defecate and build up such 151 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: amount of pellets that he uses as a lookout like 152 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: a crow's nest. Fell a fella rode in, and he 153 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: was saying that he doesn't really know about this idea 154 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: that rabbits defecate on a log with the intent of 155 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: building up with lop mound that they can sit on. 156 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: He says that may be true, but he also points 157 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: out that it's necessary for cotton tales to eat their 158 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: own poop. It's called capra faggie. And he wonders about 159 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: if it's not in the in these uh, these environs 160 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: that are prone to flooding, that if it's not just 161 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: a good way for him to store his Why are 162 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: they eating I don't say that very often. Why are 163 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: they eating their own ship? You know, it has something 164 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: to do with UM, has something to do with their 165 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: digestive track. Maybe Yanni can look that up. A lot 166 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: of times he'll ask him looks up up and then 167 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: by the end of the show he'll find it. So 168 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: I have a sales idea, because Dancer doesn't have anything 169 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: to add to the you could domesticate swap rabbits so that, 170 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: you know, like a cat, it would ship in the 171 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: same place in your house versus a cotton tail which 172 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: would shoot all over the house. Yeah, there's a there's 173 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: a there's a business opportunity there. I like the way 174 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,239 Speaker 1: you're thinking. UM, guy wrote in this this is interesting, 175 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: Guy writes, And we're talking recently about um the sort 176 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: of existential crisis that unters in New Zealand and Australia 177 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: are facing right now. Where hunters in New Zealand Australia 178 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: are predominantly hunting. You know, there's like kangaroo hunting there 179 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: for commercial markets like your recreational hunters. In Australian news, 180 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: hunting non natives and they will often ah, they will 181 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: often justify their pursuits by explaining how they're helping to 182 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: control And if you go on social media and you watch, 183 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: you'll see Australian hunters, you know, talking about this like man, 184 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: you know, to say the natives, we gotta do all 185 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 1: this hunting um. But then what happened. The reason we 186 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: were talking about this recently is because in New Zealand, 187 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: the government who does a lot of coaling, they do 188 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: a lot of control work on some of these more 189 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: abundant non native ungulates. Uh, they do a lot of 190 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: control work on them, and they're talking about up in 191 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: the control work and getting rid of them, and it's 192 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: making the hunters they're real easy. And I was pointing 193 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: out how it's hard because you're sort of justifying your 194 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: activity by saying we're helping to control nonnatives. But then 195 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: when the government decides just to do a totally eradication, 196 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: the hunters getting nervous because they want some and so 197 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: you're left with where your rhetorical strategy right, the thing 198 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: you use to justify your activities becomes null and void. 199 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: And the guy actually wrote in from Australia and he 200 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 1: was saying that. He says, it does put us in 201 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: a funny position because we're, like he says, quote, we 202 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: are left exposed to the harsh reality of not just 203 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: saying that we want them here so we can hunt them. 204 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: You mean about that, Johnnie, I'm glad that he wrote 205 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: in and accepted that, just admitted it. This tricky man, 206 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't like, but we've been saying and I think 207 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: all along it's sort of it's been allows the argument 208 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: why you you hunt, and it just allows you justification 209 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: for hunting. Really, yeah, you can't act like yeah if 210 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 1: if I think a lot of people do it in 211 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: a lot of different ways. People struggle with you know, 212 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot of it's it's complicated, right If someone said, hey, man, 213 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: why do you like to go to baseball games? You're 214 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: not gonna have like, oh, a reason. It's a whole 215 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 1: bunch of reasons, going back to how you brought up 216 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: and what it makes you think of and time with family, 217 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: like hot buttered popcorn. I mean, right on all manner things. 218 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: This this is huge package of things. But I think 219 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: hunters a lot of times getting a thing or they 220 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: try to narrow it down or like oh, if we 221 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: didn't hunt, the deer would overtake us and kill us 222 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: all or whatever. And um, when you get into this 223 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: like where it's justified by we're you just saying like, oh, no, 224 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: I just do it for population control. And then someone says, oh, 225 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: you know, don't worry about bro will take care of it. 226 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 1: The government will do it. Then you're like, then you 227 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: gotta be like, man, I wish I'll have set something different. 228 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: Another guy rolled in about uh.

And a 261 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: guy rode in, and he's a police officer and he's 262 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: a canine handler. He was trained for two years to 263 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: work with canines.

And dog's name was Kane, 267 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: and he was a dual purpose dog, meaning he was 268 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: a narcotic detective dog and suspect apprehension. Oh yeah, that's 269 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: a mean looking dude right there. That that's like the 270 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: guy that in movies when a police dog chomps on 271 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: the bad guy's arm. That's the melanoir. Yeah, well, you 272 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: know what he's saying about this dog he's talking about 273 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: he's talking about he just only reason he wrote in 274 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: he because we were struggling to explain like how well 275 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: a squirrel dog can smell it? How can a squirrel 276 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: dog do such a good job of smelling worlds? And 277 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: he just brings up away that it was explained to 278 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: him one He says, it was explained to me in 279 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: training the dogs can smell up to fifty thousand times 280 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: better than we do, which is like hard to right, 281 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: it's still hard. But because he's like, there's a good anecdote. 282 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: W's this thing called the cake theory. So let's say 283 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: your mom bakes a cake and you walk in the house. 284 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: You can you walk in the house and you take 285 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: in the smell and you're like, oh, someone made a cake. 286 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: Like that's the smell you get. He's just a good 287 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: way to think about it would be that the dog 288 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 1: walks in the house and he goes, oh, eggs, flour, milk, salt, sugar. 289 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: And that's how he feels that they're a way to 290 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: distinguish their abilities from our own. Um. Another guy rolled in, 291 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: and here's here's a guy. He's kind of established his credentials.

And 330 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: he talks about he just started bow hunting this season, 331 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: and he talks about how hunters litter a lot and 332 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: a lot of times you'll find where hunters leave little 333 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: stashes out in the woods and a lot of garbage 334 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: out in the woods and our tattered sleeping bag and 335 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: old tarp and no, no, no no, an unusable m R 336 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: s and doesn't like it. Hunters are real dirt bag 337 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: woods trashers, um. And he goes on to say that. 338 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: He goes on to propose the idea that McLean was 339 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: simply cleaning up the woods by stealing a tree stand 340 00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 1: and a trail camera, which is an indefensible position to take. 341 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: There's a big difference between garbage left out in the 342 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: woods and someone's legally placed tree stand in trail camera. 343 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: You don't want to add that here here the lovely 344 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: voice with Mark Kenyon. Yeah, you could take that a 345 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: bunch of you'd say, like, your your car is like 346 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: a hunk of metal just sitting out there, So I'm 347 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: gonna steal that to clean this place up. Cleaning up 348 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: some new truck I found out in the woods. I 349 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: think the more interesting thing is the tactic that the 350 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: hunter who has stuff stolen. I think the tactic he 351 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: used was something that more people should use in the 352 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: white tail world. And I do know some people have 353 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: talked about I've got a friend who who was trying this. 354 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: But it's a great way to uh if we get 355 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: the word out that enough people are doing that. I 356 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,719 Speaker 1: think a lot of trail camera thieves we'll think twice 357 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: to do the double camera because I might be getting 358 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: picture we we were looking at. We had a dude 359 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: showing us a bunch of trail cameras on his Uh, 360 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: we were muled your hunting Colorado ran into a fella 361 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: remember this, Johnny, And he was showing us a bunch 362 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: of trail camp pictures of various elk and mule deer 363 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: and whatnot, and they all were taken at a downward angle, 364 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: you right, And I was like, what the yeah? I 365 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: was like, what's going on with this? He said, Trail 366 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: camera theft is so bad in New Mexico that he 367 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 1: now places his trail cameras up high up in trees, 368 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: angled down. People don't notice them. Doesn't the cameras that 369 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: send the pictures to the internet, you know, deter some 370 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: of the stealing. I mean, you'd get a picture when 371 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: someone goes to steal your camera. Has that curbed the theft? 372 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: The direct transmit? I think that the percentage of trail 373 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: cameras out there that have that feature is still so 374 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: small that but yes, I think that it's getting to 375 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: the point that more and more people will worry about that. 376 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: I actually actually gone to the um to the point 377 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: where I place no trespassing signs that I will specifically 378 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: say property. I'll write and market property patrolled with with 379 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: cellular cameras that kind of thing where there's some serious 380 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: issues of trespassing. So they said, oh yeah, so that 381 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: I can't see the camera, pature's gonna be sent right away. 382 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: That's a heck of a deterrent. And it's true or 383 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: not true, it's true. Okay, Um, you know this is 384 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,479 Speaker 1: take this with, take this with. I'm gonna say something 385 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: in uh, keep in mind that I'm the well I'm 386 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: gonna I'll just come out and say it if I could, 387 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: if I was the command master of the universe, I 388 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 1: would get rid of trail cameras. But I would also 389 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: get rid of the Internet. And I use the Internet, 390 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: and in fact, this is like an internet based digital 391 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: radio program, so it's like I'm comfortable using it. But 392 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: if I was commander of the universe and I could 393 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: make it go away, I would make it go away, 394 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: and I would make trail cameras go away. Even though 395 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: I will use trail cameras, I would like I wish 396 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: they hadn't been invented. I understand that position, and I 397 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: understand both sides. But one, I love trail camp pictures. 398 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: I post them all the time on social media because 399 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: it's like cool. I like how they've rewritten some of 400 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: our understanding of wildlife distribution. And I love it and 401 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: like you learn from it, but there's just something about 402 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: it is like, uh, I only don't like them when 403 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: I run into one. I like my friends a lot, 404 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: I just don't like other people's. And I think that 405 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people are getting a little bit wigged 406 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: out with the fact that there's like surveillance in the hills. 407 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: Now I get that. I do think it. Also there's 408 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 1: something to be said about and I've kind of battled 409 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: this a little bit myself, the fact that takes a 410 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: little bit of a mystery away. There's something to be 411 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: said about going out into the woods and not knowing 412 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: what might show up. Yeah later tonight. Now it's well, 413 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: it's gonna be this buck, this buck, or that buck, 414 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: and there's never a surprise. Dude, the buck I saw 415 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: this morning, I was trying to figure out what one 416 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 1: it was when the trail. So so yeah, you're like 417 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: you're sitting out there and you feel like you're like 418 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: waiting for a friend when you're out in the woods. Now, man, 419 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: I know he comes here. It's like, oh, there's one 420 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: guy and the other guy. Yeah, I kind of like 421 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: I don't like it, but that's not what I don't 422 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: like about. I don't like being out and and all 423 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: of a sudden realizing there's like some guy's trail camera sitting. 424 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: Why not confine him to private? You know? You know 425 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: what's cool? It was cool, but it went away like 426 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: Montana for a couple of years. It had to be 427 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: that when Big game season opened, you had to pull him. 428 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: That just changed this past year. Then they made it 429 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 1: go back the other way again. Something. It's just gonna 430 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: get too ridiculous because that the technology gets better and 431 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: like people are just able to like live stream. It's 432 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: just I don't know, man, it's just like it just is. 433 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 1: It's just too much. It used to be so much. 434 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: Some kind of limits, some kind of regulation, we limit 435 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff. Yeah, we need to have that, 436 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I think you can't use a 437 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 1: red dot, you can't use you can't use a red 438 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: dot site on your boat. It's like all kinds of 439 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: stuff with them. The regulation I would like to see 440 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: put on trail cameras has to do with cell cameras, 441 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: because that's where I see this line being crossed with 442 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: some line of ethics and everyone else. Everyone's gonna have 443 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: their own opinion on this um. But I find where 444 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: it gets real weird for me is when you get 445 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: a picture now that's happening right now, and you can 446 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: make a hunting decision right now based off for real 447 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: time data, that seems to to go over the line 448 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: for me personally, I wish there was like a fair 449 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: chase mode that you could turn on your trail camera, 450 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: or maybe there'd be a loss someday that requires this 451 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: that requires a twenty four hour delay before anything gets sent, 452 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: so there's no real time. You're not gonna see what's 453 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: happening right now. You can get the benefits of a 454 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: cell camera, that being it gets transmitted to your computer 455 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: phone so that if you live miles away or whatever, 456 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: you can still get your pictures, or if you don't 457 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: want to have to go in there every two weeks 458 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: and put your sent all over the place. But this 459 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: at least keeps you from abusing that technology. At least 460 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: I think it's abuse if you see a picture on 461 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: your phone right now and go stalking in there and 462 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: shoot that buck. That's like for me, that's that's why 463 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: you need to when you're gonna do stuff like this. 464 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: Usually the fishing game agencies try to get out ahead 465 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: of it before it becomes standard accepted practice, Like how 466 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: people were so aggressive around regulating the use of drones 467 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: before before drones became super widespread and has so much 468 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: common use. Because then it's hard because there's like a 469 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: resistance built up, and I just haven't seen anywhere doing 470 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: like that kind of leadership. I'm looking like, where is 471 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: this going Where you can be out in the woods. 472 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: You know, you're you go out plant twenty cameras that 473 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 1: are all giving you a live feed of what's going on, 474 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: and you got them in all your elk meadows, or 475 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: you got them in all your you got a camera 476 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: on all your duck ponds that you like to go 477 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: jump shoot, and you got a live stream on your phone. 478 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: I mean, we're like, you could do this right now, 479 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, let's go hit that pond, jump 480 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,959 Speaker 1: that pond. They're on the they're on the whatever end 481 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: of the pond, So let's make sure you approach from 482 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: that end. Because there's a lot of states and I 483 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: think more should get on board of banned two way 484 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: communications to like coordinate the taking a game it's just 485 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: it's just someone's gonna have to get out ahead of it. 486 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: I feel like it's definitely my property has is influenced. 487 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: You know how we look at it when game move 488 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: it's domestified, or maybe it shouldn't have, you know, domestified 489 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: if you know there's animal activity in the middle of 490 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: the day. You know, we've never been in a position 491 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: where you know, let's go on, that buck is on 492 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: that spot at this particular time. But overall movement, you know, 493 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: or you look and see you know they moved overnight 494 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: because there's a full moon and you probably will have 495 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: a slow morning. It hasn't equated to success in particular. 496 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: Um it has definitely reduced trespassing because you only have 497 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: to catch someone, you know, ten minutes after they've been there. 498 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: Not only I think you're a freak for monitoring, but 499 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: if you go there and show them a picture of 500 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: them on your property within a few minutes, it prevents 501 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: the word gets out, prevents a lot of trespassing. I'm 502 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of positives, but just it's something. 503 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: It just it's something that concerns me and I think 504 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna become more of an issue as a technology 505 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: gets better. Mark kennyon Wired Hunt. Yep, so you think 506 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: you're wired to hunt? Let me ask you this. This 507 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: This is how the email started. Someone said that I'm 508 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: saying that this is a great question. Guy rights in. 509 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: My dad and I have been hunting on a large 510 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: property next door to their house, almost a thousand acres 511 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: for all of our lives. Three years ago, the founder 512 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: of a chip company, I don't wanna name the chip company. 513 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: The founder of a chip company bought the land and 514 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: he puts a fence up around it for the purpose 515 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: of keeping his cattle from roaming off the property. But 516 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: it's a nice, big decorative fence. He puts an eight 517 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: foot wood fence around the perimeter of the whole property, 518 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: eight foot tall wood fence, he says, to keep his 519 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: cattle in. The guy still allowed to hunt it. But 520 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: he's always been uneasy with the idea of hunting high fence. 521 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: So here is he's always hunted a property. All of 522 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: a sudden it becomes fenced. They go in there last 523 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: year on opening weekend. They both get to get a deer, 524 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 1: and then they got and they agreed not to hunt anymore. 525 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: They just can't decide he says, he still goes in 526 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: there to trap. He goes in there too, small game hunt, 527 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: but he feels weird hunting ducks, hunting deer on it 528 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: knowing that the deer are stuck in there and can't 529 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: get out. Wow, that is a tough one. That is 530 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: a tough scenario. Can anyone put a eight foot decorative 531 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: fence around their property where where you're basically you have 532 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: captive wildlife vatizing He doesn't stay with stadies, and I 533 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised any property if you know there's wildlife. 534 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: Can you build a decorative fence around your property knowing 535 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: that it's going to capture wildlife on the inside. When 536 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: people of fence, when people do high fence things on 537 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: high fence stuff in Texas, Yeah, you don't need to 538 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: kick all the deer off and then build defense. It's 539 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: not Is that regulated by stay wildlife? I don't I 540 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: don't know what the permitting system is. I don't know. 541 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: He doesn't say where he is. I'm more interested not 542 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: to see if the guy's being if the guy, I'm 543 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: not really interested in the dude. I mean, it's interesting. 544 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: I'd love to know if the dude is like a 545 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: breaking law, not just but I'm more interested in the 546 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: idea of it. So here is he hunts and all 547 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's fence as you go get a 548 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: new spot. That's a really, really tough question, man. I 549 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: feel like if that happened to me, I don't know, man, 550 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: it would be real hard to go and like walk 551 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: away from your spot. I understand why. I think I 552 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: would feel dirty. I would feel at least for for 553 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: for me, I would start to have weird questions about it. 554 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: Because of that point he brought up, like, all of 555 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: a sudden, now you're hunting a high fence property and 556 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: all the things that means possibly the thing is a 557 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: thousand acres is big. It's big. But then we talked 558 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: about the reduction of mystery. You're never gonna get a 559 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: surprise deer on there again. You're never going to have 560 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: the risk of someone else getting that dear or that 561 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: dear disappearing or there. Yeah, it's still a challenge, of course, 562 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: there's still gonna be a lot of work probably has 563 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: to go into it, but it's different different. It would 564 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: be diminished, it would be diminished, and I would probably 565 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: do the same thing he did think it's so hard. 566 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: I just don't. It's never gonna have to come up again. 567 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: He's gonna be the only guy ever in the history 568 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: of our country to have to wrestle with this. Like, 569 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: I feel sorry for the guy he's got to wrestle 570 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: with him. But I don't know if like us talking 571 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: about it is going to help anybody else. So you 572 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: just don't see it being an issue. Yeah, I mean, 573 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: I think you just had to go in there and 574 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: see how it feels, and like I would just say, look, 575 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: keep hunting it until you're like, okay that that was 576 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: so easy and do because of the decoratifense And I'm quitting, 577 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, I gotta add here that I am the 578 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: one that I use the word decorative. He doesn't use 579 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: the word decorative. But no, no, what wooden fence is 580 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: not a practical fence. There's cheaper ways of doing it. 581 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 1: There's an incredible amount of money spending on a thousand 582 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: acre fence. That's yeah, what's the typical high fence? They're high, 583 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: just like woven wire. Yeah, yeah, I think height ridge pounder. 584 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: You got nothing to say about that, probably, dude, I 585 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: got an opinion. He's got to hang it up, dude, 586 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: he's got he's gotta just give that spot up. There's 587 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: no question really my mind. Yeah, it's not easy for me. Man. No, 588 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: there's a fence there, Dude, I don't know. I feel 589 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: like I might. I'd probably still be I'd probably still 590 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: poke around in your No, No, you can poke around 591 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: all you want. I just be like, I don't know. 592 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: Maybe he didn't fence the whole thing. Would you be like, 593 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: would you be like him and hanging up just big game, 594 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: or would you say, yeah, the rabbits are high fence. Now, 595 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: the squirrels are high fence. There's no such thing as 596 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: a high fence. Score. Yeah, because the squirrels can. That's 597 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: that's rabbits. I don't real that's up to him. But yeah, man, 598 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: he's got a quit. Do you know a guy wrote 599 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: into you. The guy wrote into me about what the 600 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: gray rabbit? What? What was he got to say? He says, 601 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: you should have done candle light dinner high to the grayness. 602 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: Matt is very very smart. Okay, one more, one more, 603 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: one more real zinger, real zinger. Um, don't go get 604 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,280 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be pushing the cook I'm coming around 605 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: to them. Give him Matt time to work up a 606 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: sales pitch. Then I want to talk about the cookbook. 607 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: I have a question real quick about the dog and 608 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: the smell. I don't know the answer, but okay, let 609 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: me ask this question. I was pheasant hunting last year 610 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: and it was September and it was hot, and our 611 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: guide said that one of the issues the dog was 612 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: having was your analogy that he is chilly. That the 613 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: dog can smell all of the spices, that beef and everything, 614 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: and that it was um. If it's old, doubt it's 615 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: not as hard on the dog. The dog can find 616 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 1: pheasants easier, but when it's hot, they can smell every ingredient. 617 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: You know, they smell that the plants, you know, they 618 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: can smell other animals, rabbits. Have any of you heard 619 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 1: that that heat. I feel like I've heard that. My 620 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: buddy Ronnie Bam would absolutely have a lot to say 621 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: about that. So we'll have to return to that, okay. 622 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 1: I had heard dryness versus moisture, so like a moist situation, 623 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: they'll be able to smell more. And I heard this 624 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: in the context of of tracking deer, So tracking a 625 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: wounded deer or hit deer. Actually tracking on a rainy 626 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: day is better than a bone dry day. Similar. There 627 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: he was saying, you know, when it was cold, and 628 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: he didn't say if there are snow or not, that 629 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: the dog could identify a pheasant scent much easier if 630 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: it's cold, because it's it's a singular scent first, is 631 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: overwhelmed by all of the scents when it's warm. I'm trying. 632 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: I'm tracking what you're saying, and I can't remember. I 633 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: know that I heard when I was running dry ground 634 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: lions with someone one time, with a feller by the 635 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: name of Floyd. We were tracking mountain lions with dogs, 636 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: and I remember he had a lot of opinions about 637 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: the climatic conditions and its effect on a dog's nose 638 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 1: and its ability to cold trail and hot trail. I 639 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: just can't remember what, you know, like what was what 640 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: was good and what was bad. I remember that he 641 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 1: had a lot of thoughts about it. Did you see 642 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: the mass running that acts? We liked a whole lot, Johnnie, No, 643 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 1: I see it now, Yeah, that's the Alaska acts, man, 644 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: it's the old well, what's the name of the model? 645 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,280 Speaker 1: That's that's what one of the nicest mass produced acts 646 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: I've ever laid my laid a hand on. Man, I'm 647 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: not trying to bought you up because you're gonna give 648 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: a sales pitch of this book. Okay, here's one more 649 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: real zinger, real zinger for everybody. This is This is 650 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: more of a zinger than the zinger from a minute ago. 651 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 1: He goes on to say how he hates hunting shows 652 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: that's cool. And he goes down to say, um, lots 653 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: of reasons. Um. He goes on to say how how 654 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: he's heard me mention that if you took away the 655 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:25,919 Speaker 1: food or you took away the fun, I would lose 656 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: interest in hunting, Like it's a package of things that 657 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: that all need to be there for me to love 658 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 1: it like I do. Um. And he goes on to 659 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: say he needs my opinion on something. He works with 660 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 1: a fella who he generally likes. We get along just fine. 661 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: And he goes to say this, the dude is this. 662 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: This is why almost more of this is true. I 663 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: feel like it must be true. The guy is a 664 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: vegetarian okay, but not one of those annoying ones that 665 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 1: throws it in your face. But here's the way it 666 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: gets weird. He's a vegetarian. Buddy hunts. He likes to 667 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: hunt deer and turkeys, but doesn't believe in eating them. 668 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: What he just donates it all to a food bank. 669 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: And the guy saying, I cannot wrap my head around this, 670 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: and he um says, no one buys a pair of 671 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: pants from J. C. Penny just to take him down 672 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: to the Salvation Army and drop him off. It's fantastic. 673 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: It's now there probably are a few charitable folks buy 674 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: clothes and that donate them. It's a good question, man, 675 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 1: like you won't eat it, but you'll like to shoot it. 676 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: I've always like it's another one of those things that 677 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 1: it's just one of those things I see both sides of. 678 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: I can't really work up a good opinion about it. 679 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: The fact that he's a vegetarian has nothing to do 680 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: with it, because I feel like I know dudes, they're 681 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 1: uh full long carnivores that do the same thing. Yeah, 682 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: but it makes it kind of even more zingy, like 683 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: the he's a vegetarian, right, sure, a little bit, but 684 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: I think we take a step back. It's it's like 685 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 1: the same wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong you're saying, Remember, um, 686 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 1: happy days. One finds he was wrong, he couldn't stay wrong. 687 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: He'd be like I was. He couldn't bring himself to 688 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: say it. I know people. I know people though, who 689 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: will shoot a deer purposefully to donate it, and they 690 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: view that as like a way to give back, so 691 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: they do. They also shoot a few for their own freezer. Yeah, 692 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,399 Speaker 1: but why do to just give money to the food bank. 693 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,800 Speaker 1: It's a different way to go about it. And maybe, 694 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe part of it because they enjoy 695 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,240 Speaker 1: the hunting aspect of it. So to your point, there's food, 696 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: there's fun, and then also there's the management perspective too. 697 00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: They might need to be taking some management deer off 698 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 1: of farm or something like that, so that might be 699 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: part of it. But I'm just devil's advocate man. Yeah, yeah, 700 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: but but I think that the interesting thing is, though, 701 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: if this guy is fundamentally opposed to the eating of meat, 702 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: so what if his So many people I imagine would 703 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: advocate for the vegetarian or vegan lifestuff because they don't 704 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: want an animal's life to be taken or blood on 705 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: their hands maybe or something like that. This guy obviously 706 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: doesn't care about that. He's not that guy, So then 707 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: what's what's his angle? I don't know. We plant based diet, 708 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: so it's a health thing for him. I do know. 709 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: And then if again, man just like playing Devil's advocates, 710 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: I cause I can see both sides of it to 711 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: a crippling degree, but I do know. And then wonder 712 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: if you don't want Like, let's say you're in a 713 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 1: situation where, yeah, you don't want it, I want to 714 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: just let someone who wants it get it. Why not 715 00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,439 Speaker 1: like leave it for someone that wants it. I get 716 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: though I have a hard time. I I can't justify 717 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,359 Speaker 1: killing animal unless I'm actually going to personally eat it, 718 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: So I would have a hard time doing that. But 719 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: I also can understand people that do. I mean, I 720 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: there's something to be said about helping other people with food. 721 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 1: It's a food acquisition process. Um. I know a lot 722 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: of guys that maybe will keep a little bit and 723 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 1: then share the rest, and I certainly I share a 724 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: significant portion events and sometimes too, like I'll a surplus 725 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: and I'll share that, And I guess like it's there's 726 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: some where's the line where it becomes questionable. That's why 727 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about this because I'm kind of like the 728 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: worst kind of person. We're I'll share it with people 729 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 1: who are I'll share with people who are, relative to 730 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: the population in general, quite wealthy. And I think that 731 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: that's just great, right, But then when someone shoots a 732 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 1: deer just brings it down to food bank, I'm like, 733 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,399 Speaker 1: what's that all about? But I'm like, well, man, I'm 734 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,720 Speaker 1: giving it to like I give game et a rich people. 735 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: It's like, why not go, like, you know, it wouldn't 736 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 1: be a lot better to go give it to the needy, 737 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 1: especially if you're gonna pick up the processing fee. What 738 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: what if someone was like one of your buddies. It 739 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: was like, man, it's last week Elk season, I'm not 740 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 1: gonna be able to get out. You have a few 741 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: free days, you think you could, and you had it. 742 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 1: You had like a cow tag or something, my own 743 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: cow tag, your own cow tag, and your freezer was full. 744 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 1: You didn't play it on filling that cow tag because 745 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: your freezer is full and if you were to shoot 746 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,479 Speaker 1: another one, you would have way too much for the year. 747 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: Is it a good friend? It could be whoever, But 748 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,839 Speaker 1: someone's like for good Someone's like Steve, I'm not gonna 749 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: get out anymore. Yes, you think you're a good friend, 750 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: you can burn that cow tag for me. Yeah, for 751 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,879 Speaker 1: a good friend, I would do that. Okay, But you're right, 752 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: and I'm just the kind of worst kind of person 753 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 1: where I wouldn't be like, you know what, I'm gonna 754 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: do it and pay the processing and drop it off 755 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 1: at the food bank because I'm suspicious to that for 756 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,439 Speaker 1: a weird reason that doesn't make any sense. It's making 757 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: me feel a little embarrassed that I feel this way. 758 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 1: What's it's because the food banks like the easy way out, 759 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: Like I know I I know of people that would 760 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: shoot shop and just take it to the food bank 761 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:23,280 Speaker 1: because they don't want to deal with it. Dance Okay, Yeah, 762 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: you're you're helping me articulate my perspective on it, because, 763 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: like I bring a lot, you have a lot of assumptions, 764 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: so in some way you're kind of looking at it 765 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: like um in some way you're kind of looking at 766 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: it like you're sort of reading into their motivations. Because 767 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: let's say you met a guy who's a volunteer at 768 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 1: the food bank and he's like, man, I volunteer for 769 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 1: ten years the food bank, and I'm telling you it's 770 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 1: really hard, like the protein is hard to come by, 771 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 1: and when we get the venicon in, people love it 772 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: and it like makes their day and it's such a 773 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 1: nice thing we're able to do at the food bank. 774 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 1: And once I had that experience, I really started just like, 775 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, I'd get to do here for me, but 776 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: I really would just keep hunting because I love to 777 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 1: support my local food bank. That dude, I don't want 778 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: to give him a big old hug, but if it's 779 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 1: the kind of thing at one time, let me give 780 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 1: you the first time I ever hunting Texas, I was 781 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 1: hunting with a guy and it was like a my 782 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: old girlfriend's dad had a dentist body or something like that, 783 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 1: and he caught winto the fact I'd like to go hunt, 784 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: and he took me out hunting down my Waco, Texas 785 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: and I got a buck, and um, he comes and 786 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: it comes around to pick me up where I was 787 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 1: hunting at my blind and comes around and sees the 788 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 1: deer and it just says, ah, maybe I can get 789 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: j J to take this that perspective where he was 790 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: like inconvenienced by the idea of having to deal with 791 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: a deer in its meat is something that I like. 792 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: I see that and I think about that being like 793 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: a little bit offensive to me. I have a question 794 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: for you. So I have guests come and hunt, and 795 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 1: they know that I donate the meat to my inner 796 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 1: city employees, but they they have no intention of taking it. 797 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: They know I have an outlet for it. Does that 798 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 1: it's still why do they want to kill it? Do 799 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 1: they really care about your employees that much? If so, No, 800 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: that's that's my question is I don't feel great about it. 801 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 1: I have an outlet. They know that I have people 802 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,280 Speaker 1: that are in need and very much want the protein, 803 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: and that the deer will not be wasted. UM. I 804 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 1: think a lot of it's the you know, deer camp 805 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 1: experience and sitting around and and eating and drinking. But 806 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 1: then they know that there's an outlet for the protein. Um. 807 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,839 Speaker 1: It obviously benefits someone, they know it. But I feel 808 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: a little bit uncomfortable when they feel good about themselves 809 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: that you know, they're hunting and they feel that there's 810 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 1: some altruistic outlet for it. It's that's just not the 811 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: way hunting should be. It should be you know obviously 812 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: that that they have every intention of consuming the animal themselves. 813 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: So I feel like I set up an environment sometimes 814 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 1: that I'm a little conflicted. But you know what, when 815 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 1: I'm up at my fish shack in Alaska and we're 816 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: stacking up salmon and hall of it, I'm I already know. 817 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 1: I already know that I'm going to give a bunch 818 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: of it to my neighbors who are hardly needy, not 819 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 1: even kind of sort of needing. So if I came 820 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: to your fish shack with the intention of fishing, knowing 821 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: that I'm not taking it, that you're going to give 822 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: it to your let's to your neighbors that are not needing, 823 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: does that change it? If? Okay, here's what we're getting 824 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: into the nitty gritty. This is interesting. Let's say you're 825 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 1: at my fish shack and you said to me, you 826 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,320 Speaker 1: know what, dude, funny thing. Oh, we've we've been stacking 827 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: up sam and halibot. I don't eat fish. I'm gonna 828 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: give this all to my neighbors. I would say, you 829 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 1: can't take any home with you. If you said, dude, 830 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: I love eating fish, definitely playing and eating fish. And 831 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 1: you know what else, I'm excited about sharing some of 832 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 1: my neighbors. I'd be like all right, bro, let's load 833 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 1: your cooler up. It's just like it doesn't make any sense. 834 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:16,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's like, um, it's not buying, it's not 835 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: binary for me. It's like it's like it's just different. Man. 836 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 1: It's like because I need to know the more, Like 837 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 1: I need to be comfortable with the motivation, and I 838 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: need to be like like when you see the fish 839 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: come up out of the depths, like when you see 840 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: the hall of it come up out of the depths, 841 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 1: Like I need to know what you're looking at. I 842 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 1: need to like what you see. Of course it's a fish, 843 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 1: but what do you see of the fish? And that's 844 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: important to me? And and and and so you're looking 845 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: for your looking for like clues is like what does 846 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 1: this person see when he sees a fish? It feels 847 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: a little bit you know. I've had people that I 848 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: have not asked back because they felt a little bit 849 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: more like they were into killing. And I'm the outlet 850 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 1: for the ORO team, you know, so I didn't feel 851 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 1: like they were truly bought into the hunting experience. Um 852 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 1: So although they know there's um, you know, a charitable 853 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: element to it, I just don't feel like they there 854 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 1: they have skin in the game. You know what you 855 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: can do if you were a real prick, if you 856 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 1: got a guy like this, take him he gets the 857 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: elk or gets a deer, you'd be like, you know what, man, 858 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't feel like messing with this. Let's just take 859 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 1: the head and split And if he says, yeah, you're right, 860 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: then you don't how to fight him back. You score 861 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: him immediately to the edge of the property. It's a 862 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:46,399 Speaker 1: good litmus test. I got a buddy who might be uh, 863 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 1: throw an even different direction into it or different layer. Rather. 864 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:59,919 Speaker 1: He loves to hunt, hates killing like eats it, eat 865 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 1: eats meat, but doesn't really like he'd be fine with donating. 866 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,400 Speaker 1: Like he's the type of dude who would if he 867 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 1: knew if he was on a deer hunt and everybody's like, 868 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna donate all these deer, he would love it 869 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 1: because he would get the aspect of hunting, he'd feel 870 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 1: better about the killing, and he wouldn't have to deal 871 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, but he doesn't. He like hates killing ship, 872 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,919 Speaker 1: but he also like doesn't really want to deal with 873 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: so what does He needs to find something? And it's 874 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 1: so weird. He loves duck hunting because he likes the 875 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: the like an ammidity of when you're hunting with like 876 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of dudes and a bunch of ducks come 877 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 1: in because you're like everybody's shooting, You're like, I don't 878 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: really know who shot what, you know what I mean. 879 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: But he also loves he likes the idea and goes 880 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,879 Speaker 1: deer and turkey hunting. My father described that about being 881 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:55,239 Speaker 1: in World War Two where he said, uh, he was 882 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 1: in a situation once where he like very definitely needed 883 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 1: to kill something, like he killed someone, was like very 884 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:05,360 Speaker 1: obvious that he killed a person, and that weighed on him. 885 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,840 Speaker 1: But all the time you spend where everybody's just shooting 886 00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:11,359 Speaker 1: and all the stuff, you never need to He taught 887 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: about that. He says, you don't know. And then it 888 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 1: came a point where he he killed a person with 889 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:22,480 Speaker 1: a hand grenade whoa and um was certain did it happened? 890 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,360 Speaker 1: And he says, and that's the thing I think about, 891 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 1: not just like mordering someplace and everyone shooting and just 892 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 1: mayhem and you know, but the minute you go like, 893 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 1: oh man, that was my action, that's the one that 894 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: stuck with him. That's heavy and if I remember right too. 895 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: He was telling me he thought the person was drunk, 896 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: but then another relative of mine heard the story. He 897 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 1: didn't hear that part. He thought they were drunk, a 898 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:56,919 Speaker 1: person was drunk and maybe lost. Weird man at night 899 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 1: in the dark. Yeah, he never forgave the Germans. Have 900 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 1: I talked about this? Yes? He did. Yeah, I never 901 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 1: forgave him. Do you work up a good pitch for 902 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:18,839 Speaker 1: that book? Absolutely? Okay. I think that the Meat Eater 903 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: book needs to be tied in with a guy's ability 904 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:26,480 Speaker 1: to get women. I think that I think it, and 905 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 1: you went you went to business school. It can expose 906 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 1: him to his lady friend that he's sensitive, that he 907 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 1: knows how to uh you know. It could open up 908 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: the idea that he gets to hunt more. Um, as 909 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 1: long as he brings, you know, a good meal and 910 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: a bottle of wine to the dinner table. Um. I 911 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: think you could do some type of promotion where if 912 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: a guy does meet a woman, he has to buy 913 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:56,719 Speaker 1: five more cookbooks. So um, I would I would definitely 914 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: take this on as my number one product. I love 915 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 1: What was your backup sales pitch? Um? My backup sales 916 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: pitch would be and get a the women to buy 917 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:13,799 Speaker 1: it for their man. Okay, it's not gonna it's not 918 00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 1: gonna lead. Um. It makes the woman appear to be 919 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 1: sensitive and cares about her man and what he likes 920 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 1: to do on the side, and it's something that they 921 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 1: could do together. I think that uh, gall and a 922 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: guy could definitely uh create a new life together with 923 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 1: a meatia or cookbook.

So like early when I mentioned how 967 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 1: it's laid out, where it's laid out into these chapters 968 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: where it goes big games, small game, water foul upland birds, 969 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,880 Speaker 1: freshwater fish, saltwater fish, reptiles and amphibian shellfish and crustaceans, 970 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,359 Speaker 1: and there's like an extra thing called basic and not 971 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:43,399 Speaker 1: so basic, sauces, sides, sauces sides, and accompaniments. And each 972 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: chapter was broken out with like an introduction of what's 973 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 1: going on. It kind of gives like general thoughts about 974 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 1: the thing, all kinds of beautiful pictures, and then we 975 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 1: have this section that we worked on a fair bit 976 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 1: called the Nature of the Beast, And what I try 977 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 1: to capture in the book and explain to people is 978 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 1: that I don't generally think that. Well, let me put 979 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 1: this way. Sometimes like you'll you'll go online will put 980 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 1: up a thing where it's like a recipe for an 981 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,440 Speaker 1: elk hert, and someone will say, oh, do you have 982 00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 1: a recipe for a moose heart? And kind of an 983 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: operating thesis in this wild Game book is that that 984 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 1: the species of the animal that we're talking about when 985 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 1: it comes to say, horned and antlered game, that the 986 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: species of the animal does not matter as much as 987 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: the cut. Do we talk about this on a recent 988 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 1: podcast episode? Yeah, I'm I don't know about recent. I'm 989 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: sure that we've covered it at some point. But meaning 990 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: a shank recipe when it comes to horned and antlered game, say, 991 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 1: and in the case of shanks, also black bears and 992 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 1: wild pigs, that a shank recipe is a shank recipe 993 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you have a shank from an antelope, 994 00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: a mule, deer, a white tail, just doesn't matter. It's 995 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 1: like cooking shank is cooking shank. So I try to 996 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 1: get away from these like cookbooks, these wild game cookbooks 997 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 1: and that and I own many to break it out, 998 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: or like here's the antelope recipes, here's the white tail recipes, 999 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,320 Speaker 1: here's the mule to elk recipes. Because it's just like 1000 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 1: this is a much better way to approach wild game. However, 1001 00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 1: there are like exceptions, and so each chapter has this 1002 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 1: section called the Nature of the Beast, where it's kind 1003 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: of like tasting notes on all the different varieties, sort 1004 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 1: of like general best practices and guidelines. So for the 1005 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 1: big game nature of the beasts, it's sort of like 1006 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: a general breakdown, like what are what are American prong 1007 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: horner analope, like, like, what are they known for? What 1008 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: are some of the things you can expect from the 1009 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 1: meat on them? Same with black bear, caribou, elk, moose, 1010 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 1: mule de your white tailed deer, wild pigs, like like generally, 1011 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 1: what are best practices for handling them? And what are 1012 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: the exceptions? And what it's meant to be is it's 1013 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:57,880 Speaker 1: meant to serve as a thing to help guide you 1014 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 1: through substitutions. If you live in the stern the US 1015 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 1: and you only hunt white tailers, you might be like, 1016 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: what does it do me? Because I'm just dealing with 1017 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 1: white tails anyways. But keep in mind that we do 1018 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 1: the same thing, the same nature of the beast thing 1019 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,880 Speaker 1: for freshwater fish, where we talk about all your all 1020 00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 1: of your varieties of freshwater fish, your panfish, the different 1021 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 1: bass species, northerns picke roll smell, salmon, trout, you name it, 1022 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: all of the guidelines on like best practices for handling 1023 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 1: the fish and how to figure out substitutions. So when 1024 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,160 Speaker 1: you're on something and you're looking, this guy's got like, oh, 1025 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 1: here's a great walleye recipe, say, well, I don't fish walleye. 1026 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 1: How do you make sense of the fish that you 1027 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,040 Speaker 1: do have in order to be able to use them 1028 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: in generally cooking, um, and generally cooking and using substitutions, 1029 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: Because I think that in a wild game cooking, it's 1030 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 1: like really important to get away from this idea that 1031 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: there is such a thing as a walleye recipe. There's 1032 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:52,720 Speaker 1: really not. I would say, there's a recipe for mild, white, 1033 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 1: flaky freshwater fish, for sure, And so how do I 1034 00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 1: help you make sense of that? Um. Gambrel skinning, So 1035 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 1: how to skin animal on a gambrel? How to do 1036 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: it on the ground, So like a detailed piece about 1037 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 1: how to go ahead and like break down big giant 1038 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,480 Speaker 1: animals laying on the ground. Um. And then we put 1039 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 1: all these other kind of like little micro sections in 1040 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 1: here where we have a thing about the big buck myth. 1041 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of like even wild game cooks 1042 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 1: always push this idea that's like young animals are really 1043 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 1: good to eat and big bucks are no good eats. 1044 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,320 Speaker 1: So we kind of like put that to test and 1045 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about that. We have sections on 1046 01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 1: evidence of sex requirements, sections on what want and waste means, 1047 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: sections on chronic waste and disease. How to completely bone out, Um, 1048 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: you know, how to how to tabletop bone out a 1049 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 1: white tail deer, and what cuts you want to wind 1050 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: up with. So when you're working on your white tail 1051 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 1: deer and you want to plan out where you have 1052 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 1: a variety of meals you can eat throughout the year, 1053 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 1: how to like cut your white tailed deer up, what 1054 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 1: you should do, like different ways of approaching the front legs, 1055 01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 1: boning them out for burger, using them, cutting it for osabuco, 1056 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: cutting it for blade ross. I don't know. Jump in here. 1057 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: If you need to ribs whole ribs not whole ribs, 1058 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was gonna say that, uh, And 1059 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure most cookbooks do this, most authors of cookbooks 1060 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: do this. But I was impressed with how christ how 1061 01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: did you say your last um who put more? Who 1062 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:29,959 Speaker 1: put more op into this book than anybody else? Yes, yeah, 1063 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 1: we definitely owe her a lot of credit. But she 1064 01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: made sure that every recipe in there was like not 1065 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 1: only checked and vetted, but probably three, four, sometimes six 1066 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:47,120 Speaker 1: times over by professional chefs and sometimes by two and 1067 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: three professional chefs. And then she would say, you know what, 1068 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm not quite ad on. You know that t smokes 1069 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: duck brass recipe, which so far is like one of 1070 01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: my favorites. It was a real eye opener for me 1071 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:04,600 Speaker 1: because I got to try it because she asked me 1072 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: to try it to make sure the timing was right 1073 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 1: to get it to the temp. And if you've never 1074 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 1: tried it, it's smoked, but it's something you just do 1075 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 1: at home with like you basically make your own mini smoker. 1076 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,760 Speaker 1: Was by just lining a pain with lunium foil and 1077 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 1: putting lid on it.

It was eight or ten minutes of 1080 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 1: smoking and it was spot on. So um, I was 1081 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: just impressed how much emphasis she put into that, really 1082 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 1: vetting the recipes and making sure that they were just 1083 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:42,040 Speaker 1: like super dialed in.

Putting a bunch of rotten meat in 1128 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:22,720 Speaker 1: your glass jar and then sticking into a pressure cooker 1129 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like the logical thing to do, But when 1130 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 1: you do both of them side by side, you end 1131 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 1: up with a better product by doing it that way. 1132 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,440 Speaker 1: The thing that you found when you were working on it, um, 1133 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 1: that I thought was interesting is when you brown it, 1134 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 1: it firms Yeah, it firms up, and so it doesn't 1135 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 1: pack is tight. But my mom candle a lot of 1136 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: venison man, and um, yeah, you brown in the cubes 1137 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 1: and they firm up, and then you get that you 1138 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 1: wind up with a lot of aerospace and you got 1139 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 1: a top of with liquid. But when you wet pack, 1140 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 1: it's just meat mhm. And I realized I think that 1141 01:05:56,720 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 1: you're like, by doing the browning, a lot of that 1142 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,560 Speaker 1: flavor was being left in the pan and the juices 1143 01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: were being left in the pan and maybe evaporating, where 1144 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 1: when you just put the raw into the can, it 1145 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 1: can't go anywhere. All in there. We had when I 1146 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 1: was a kid, we had my mom had a canning room. 1147 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: It was like the laundry room, but the hallway that 1148 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:20,880 Speaker 1: led to the laund room was called the canning room. 1149 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 1: And my dad had built wooden shelves and it was 1150 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: lined with canned venison and all the stuff that came 1151 01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 1: out of our garden, and my mom would go to 1152 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,560 Speaker 1: the farmer's market and can all that and it was 1153 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:34,560 Speaker 1: like you're walking down a corridor of canning jars. That 1154 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:39,440 Speaker 1: was old day stuff. Man. I used to think it 1155 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:41,640 Speaker 1: was cool. Another thing that people like about the book 1156 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: is if you watch media or the TV show, there's 1157 01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 1: certain recipes that really hit us hard. Like, for instance, 1158 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 1: we did a hog trap and Rest episode down in Texas. 1159 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:51,240 Speaker 1: In the end the end of the show, we took 1160 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 1: our pigs to a guy that processes wild hogs. Clayton 1161 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: Saunders was his name, and Divine Texas and he made 1162 01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:00,840 Speaker 1: the best wild pig shoulder I ever had in my 1163 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 1: life and had like that special sop that he learned 1164 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,440 Speaker 1: from someone. Was it his daddy taught him how to 1165 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 1: make the sop or some crazy thing like that. I 1166 01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:10,960 Speaker 1: can't remember, but I use it all the time. That 1167 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 1: stop is good stuff. And then when you're done stopping 1168 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:16,560 Speaker 1: with it, you just add a little more catch up 1169 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,440 Speaker 1: and reduce it a little bit and it makes the 1170 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:22,520 Speaker 1: finest barbecue. So so there are certain recipes in here 1171 01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:24,440 Speaker 1: that you might know from the show that we went 1172 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 1: and dialed in and tested and make sure they got 1173 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,280 Speaker 1: it right. And those recipes are in here, like that's 1174 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 1: called the South Texas wild hog shoulder. And then just 1175 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 1: how to smoke finally, like and this is one of 1176 01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 1: the ones that took a lot of testing to get 1177 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 1: it where it would work for anyone, is how to 1178 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 1: take a whole deer leg so you kill you know, 1179 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:46,640 Speaker 1: you kill a white tail, take it back leg? How 1180 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:50,400 Speaker 1: to brine and smoke a hole deer leg? And I 1181 01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 1: think that we eventually hit on probably a pretty failsafe 1182 01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:58,680 Speaker 1: way of doing it, the key being you need to 1183 01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 1: brine it way longer than you think do. But it 1184 01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 1: was one we did and did and did and finally 1185 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:12,600 Speaker 1: got where I am like very confident that any Joe Schmock, 1186 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:16,840 Speaker 1: even rich founder, Yeah, you're not even candle.

Anywhere books are sold, 1192 01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:39,400 Speaker 1: you're going you go on Amazon right now, to pause 1193 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 1: right now and go on Amazon and then you just go. 1194 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,360 Speaker 1: Once you get it done, just go about your day, 1195 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:48,479 Speaker 1: turn off the go, listen to something else.

And and I 1291 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 1: was just doing that really annoying run through what's in there, 1292 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:24,360 Speaker 1: but I didn't even begin to scratch the surface because 1293 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:26,280 Speaker 1: we hadn't gotten in all the fishing parts and hadn't 1294 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,200 Speaker 1: gotten into a lot of the hunting parts. Do you 1295 01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 1: envision that maybe a hundred years from now, someone might 1296 01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 1: come upon this old cookbook and look at it and 1297 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,479 Speaker 1: be inspired to go out and try to find all 1298 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 1: the ingredients necessary to recreate these recipes. It would be 1299 01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: such a could that possibly happen? Dude? That would be 1300 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 1: like if in a hundred years someone wanted to make 1301 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:51,800 Speaker 1: a movie. Um, it would be a great movie. Yeah, 1302 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,120 Speaker 1: that someone would do with that what I did with 1303 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:58,679 Speaker 1: the scopier. You really need to buy three copies. One 1304 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:00,800 Speaker 1: is the present and you really need to have to 1305 01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:08,799 Speaker 1: for yourself because it is coffee table worthy. It's totally 1306 01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:12,440 Speaker 1: worthy of just having a clean coffee coffee table copy 1307 01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 1: to flip through as you're a coffee and and then yeah, 1308 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:18,559 Speaker 1: the one that's gonna go right next to the joy 1309 01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:23,000 Speaker 1: of cooking in the pantry get all scuffed up, dirty, Yeah, 1310 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:26,719 Speaker 1: covered in blood and grease. It's a big hardcover book 1311 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:28,920 Speaker 1: with the dust with the dust jacket, and on the 1312 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,640 Speaker 1: front is a really beautiful picture of game ribs and 1313 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:36,519 Speaker 1: a moose antler um. That's all man. It's like a 1314 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:38,400 Speaker 1: lot of times at the end of these shows, I'll 1315 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:39,920 Speaker 1: talk about how you can really do us a good 1316 01:15:39,920 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 1: turn or do us a real solid by going onto 1317 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:45,280 Speaker 1: the Apple Store and clicking the right most star to 1318 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:47,640 Speaker 1: give us a five star rating. I'll talk about that 1319 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,519 Speaker 1: kind of stuff, or to go to the meat eater 1320 01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:54,160 Speaker 1: dot com in and get our newsletter, which is very 1321 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 1: helpful to me if people go and do that. But 1322 01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 1: this is the greatest uh favor I could ever ask 1323 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 1: of listeners of the show. As you go and in 1324 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:09,840 Speaker 1: in in order the cookbook. Now, that's all man. You 1325 01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 1: got any concluding thoughts. Honest, do you think we're screwing 1326 01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 1: people by having an episode like this? No, not at all, 1327 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 1: because I've been paying attention to the the old time 1328 01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:23,400 Speaker 1: the clock here, and uh, I feel like they got 1329 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 1: a very entertaining forty minutes before you ever even jumped 1330 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 1: into selling the cookbook. So we did them right in 1331 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:33,080 Speaker 1: a hundred and forty some episodes, and there's one episode 1332 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,080 Speaker 1: that's all about people just need to do me a 1333 01:16:35,160 --> 01:16:37,360 Speaker 1: huge favorite. So if you do one and one forty, 1334 01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 1: that's not that bad, not that bad at all. No, 1335 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,479 Speaker 1: if you're gonna complain about this one, then you just 1336 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,519 Speaker 1: you're like the worst kind of freeloader out there. That's right, 1337 01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:50,439 Speaker 1: I do. It's kind of a concluding thought. But do 1338 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 1: I really want to tell you less people think that 1339 01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,479 Speaker 1: I'm just really not doing my job. I want to 1340 01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:01,559 Speaker 1: tell you about why rabbits eat their own posies. Yeah, 1341 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:04,599 Speaker 1: this is straight from this is written recently by an 1342 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: intern at the McGill Office for Science and Society. Rabbits 1343 01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: are forging herbivores, eating mostly grass and weeds, but this 1344 01:17:15,320 --> 01:17:19,640 Speaker 1: fibrous cellulose rich diet isn't the easiest type to digest 1345 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: and by the time dinner has made it through their intestines, 1346 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 1: it still contains many of the nutrients rabbits need. Rabbits 1347 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:28,720 Speaker 1: and hair's beat this problem with a special kind of 1348 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:33,439 Speaker 1: digestion called hindgut fermentation. And short they eat their own 1349 01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:37,000 Speaker 1: poop and digested a second time. Um. They actually make 1350 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,880 Speaker 1: two different kinds of droppings, little black round ones, which 1351 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 1: is probably the ones we're most often seeing, and then 1352 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:48,759 Speaker 1: a softer black one known as second tropes that are eaten. 1353 01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 1: And this process is known as you said it earlier, 1354 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:59,360 Speaker 1: Say it again, I don't. Yeah, coprophagi and functions the 1355 01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:05,040 Speaker 1: same cows or out deer chewing their cud. So and 1356 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 1: it's and it's not only is important because they're getting 1357 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 1: that kind of second harvest, you remember that joke, but 1358 01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 1: it keeps their digestive system flowing smoothly, so they have 1359 01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:19,040 Speaker 1: to do it. I used to know a good joke 1360 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:23,360 Speaker 1: about a man who has made to eat uh another 1361 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:26,640 Speaker 1: man's feces, and I always like the punch line. The 1362 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:34,160 Speaker 1: punch line was I had lunch with him two weeks ago. Monday, Mark, 1363 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 1: you got to concluding thoughts by the book, and you 1364 01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 1: know not to ask too much. But if you like it, 1365 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 1: I imagine you'd appreciate a review on Amazon. Yeah, that 1366 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:52,479 Speaker 1: or by two Mark Kenny from Wire to Hunt, thanks 1367 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: for joining us. You didn't get that. You didn't get 1368 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 1: to lay a lot, a whole lot of white tail 1369 01:18:55,479 --> 01:18:58,800 Speaker 1: wisdom on us. No, hopefully we'll have another chance. I'm 1370 01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 1: hoping we have no chance. So we have some white 1371 01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 1: tailed adventures today, and we'll have more tomorrow and the 1372 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 1: next day. And you had what he called his number 1373 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:08,800 Speaker 1: one best day of deer hunting ever today. We should 1374 01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:11,320 Speaker 1: tease that. Listen to a future episode to find out 1375 01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 1: what happened Ridge Pounder by the book? Man's it just 1376 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 1: by it? By a couple of copies? Do you think 1377 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 1: they should do it just because I'm begging it? Like? 1378 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: Is it that? Like? No, they should do it because 1379 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 1: if they actually are like into any of this stuff, 1380 01:19:28,439 --> 01:19:32,160 Speaker 1: it'll be a game changer. I do think it would 1381 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:34,840 Speaker 1: be different if you spend a whole podcast talking about 1382 01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: why they should buy the book, but the book was 1383 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,200 Speaker 1: actually lousy, then you could say, all right, this is 1384 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:42,400 Speaker 1: pretty rough. The fact that you're doing them a favor 1385 01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:44,920 Speaker 1: by telling them about the best wild game clickbook out there. 1386 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna do. It's too late for 1387 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:50,719 Speaker 1: anyone to be helpful. But I'm gonna call this episode 1388 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 1: begging and pleading so that people don't get the wrong 1389 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:57,360 Speaker 1: impression about what the episode is. But then they'll they 1390 01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 1: won't know it'll be helpful still, or you could call 1391 01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:03,400 Speaker 1: doing you a favor. No, I think I'm gonna call it. Yeah, 1392 01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 1: you know what. I like that better. I'm gonna call 1393 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 1: it doing you a favor. It's a good idea. Mark. 1394 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:10,920 Speaker 1: I was gonna call it begging and pleading, which is 1395 01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 1: so pathetic. Yeah, you gotta come from from position of strength. 1396 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:20,080 Speaker 1: Steve Seth Morris, Thanksgivings coming, Oh yeah, and talk about Thanksgiving. 1397 01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 1: There's a shiploaded recipes in there that would be fitting. 1398 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:30,400 Speaker 1: Oh dude, do you mind take it away? Okay, my 1399 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:35,639 Speaker 1: brother knows the chef and the chef. It's a long story. 1400 01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:38,840 Speaker 1: My brother hangs out with a chef who doesn't hunt, 1401 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:42,479 Speaker 1: but my brother would present him with wild turkeys, and 1402 01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 1: the chef, over time, to my brother's estimation, perfected the 1403 01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:51,280 Speaker 1: art of making a Thanksgiving turkey with a wild turkey, 1404 01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 1: which is no mean tap, no small taps. He perfected 1405 01:20:54,920 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 1: it where my brother says it is not just the 1406 01:20:57,520 --> 01:21:01,760 Speaker 1: best wild turkey, but the best turkey it exists. It's 1407 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:10,000 Speaker 1: cooked by this man named Shannon, and he allowed us 1408 01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:12,559 Speaker 1: to use his recipe, so this is the first time 1409 01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:15,439 Speaker 1: it's ever been printed. Wow, and worked with us to 1410 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:18,760 Speaker 1: go through the process. And then we've beautifully photographed this thing. 1411 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:25,760 Speaker 1: But this man's creation of the perfect whole roasted wild turkey, 1412 01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:31,880 Speaker 1: it's in there in there that that's one reason alone, 1413 01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:34,400 Speaker 1: just to buy the damn thing. So go on Thanksgiving, 1414 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 1: Thanksgivings coming, Christmas is coming, Valentine's Valentine's Memorial Day, you know. 1415 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 1: And if if you don't even like to cook at all, 1416 01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:51,519 Speaker 1: but you like appreciate really fine photography, just by the 1417 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:53,599 Speaker 1: damn book, or if you shoot deer and bring him 1418 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 1: to a food bank, you should bring that book down 1419 01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 1: to the food bank to drop it out by the 1420 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:02,599 Speaker 1: book and donate to the food bank. Matt concluding thought, Yeah, 1421 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,040 Speaker 1: first of all, I don't think this podcast has been 1422 01:22:05,040 --> 01:22:09,880 Speaker 1: a commercial.
