We're actually specifically recording in 3 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: what I considered to be my favorite hotel in the 4 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: United States of America, the Super Eight of ketch Can, Alaska, 5 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: in which Dan Doty, who's here, we'll get to him 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: in a minute. 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 2: It's actually the worst hotel ever. 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had no idea. I've been staying here for 9 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: a decade and then Dan Doty and staying here with 10 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: Dan Doty different rooms for a decade, and he just 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: revealed me that it is least favorite hotel in the 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 1: whole place. This, however you feel about the Super eight, 13 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: Ketchcan is a rough, rough town.

You go forward, you're in the ocean. 19 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: The road here doesn't connect any hihighway system, and people 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: feel like real uh like they get the feeling a 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: little cooped up and catch a can and they all 22 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: are like ambush hunters waiting for something new to roll 23 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: into town to pounce on them. It goes fast. Like 24 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: one of the guys who worked with MO one time 25 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: got you know, a woman came up to him to 26 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: criticize him about how much his rain jacket costs, you know, 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: and that was like she was like nagging him. It 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: was like her way of picking him up would be 29 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: to go ridicule him.

If Joe Rogan did not exist, you 90 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: would not be listening to this podcast right now because 91 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan was my inspiration. 92 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 3: He's a pioneer. 93 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: He's a pioneer in podcasting. Were you doing podcasting before 94 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: they called it podcasting? 95 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 4: No, they've been. I think they started calling it podcasting 96 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 4: when the iPod was invented. I believe the term was 97 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 4: invented by Adam Curry, the guy who is the MTV 98 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 4: VJ who has a show now called No Agenda that 99 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 4: he does. I'm pretty sure he invented the term podcasting. 100 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 4: He might have invented podcasting itself. 101 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: Is he the guy that's now? Is there like a thing? 102 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: I remember you were involved, like someone was trying to. 103 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 4: Lawsuit? 104 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: Yeah? 105 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 4: Did that ever get resolved favorably? It's a podcaster, Yes 106 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 4: it did. It's called their patent trolls. They essentially wanted 107 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 4: to get a patent. This is the paraphrase version of 108 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 4: it that they they had a patent on things put 109 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 4: online in a serialized form, which is so ambiguous and vague. 110 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 4: But they were patent trolls. They had done this before 111 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 4: sued Apple for a lot of money. I think they 112 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 4: won several million dollars from Apple. But a company like 113 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: Apple just says, fuck it, I'll just give you the 114 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 4: money to shut your whole. Like it's worth more to 115 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 4: give them seven million dollars than it is to get 116 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 4: Tim Cook and all these guys to go to court somewhere. 117 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: But they must have I mean, I don't want to 118 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: get into this. It's you grade detail as I mean, 119 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: it's interesting to us. But they must have had some 120 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: kind of argument. 121 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 4: Doubt. 122 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: Apple just hands out money to anyone who comes up. 123 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: Like if I came up and said, hey man, my 124 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: iPod kind of burnt my hand, They're not going to 125 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: give me seven million dollars. 126 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 4: I don't know what they had what they had with Apple. 127 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: I don't know what the lawsuit was based on. But 128 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 4: the lawsuit that they were suing Adam Carola and several 129 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 4: other podcasters was unbelievably ridiculous. And the judges were you know, 130 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: they have they go through some before they have the 131 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 4: actual trial, They go through some sort of a meeting 132 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 4: when they sit down with legal representatives. They explained their case, 133 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 4: and you know, the judges reviewed it, so there's nothing here. 134 00:06:59,160 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 4: Was that right? And yeah? 135 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: And then they and then still still done it. 136 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 4: They still well, I don't know about Apple, this is 137 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 4: with Adam Corolla, and they still wanted to press forward. There. 138 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 4: What they do essentially is they forced people to spend 139 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 4: exhorbitant amounts of money in legal fees. Adam Carolla spent 140 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 4: more than half a million dollars fighting this and there 141 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: was almost no case. But that's the idea. It's like, 142 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 4: do you want to spend this or do you want 143 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 4: to just pay us twenty bucks a month? And then 144 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: everybody has to pay twenty bucks a month, so every part, 145 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 4: you know, whatever the number is, they choose. So that's 146 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 4: how they do it. But they in part of the 147 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 4: agreement that they signed when they abandoned the case, they 148 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 4: agreed to settle with Adam Kroller and they agreed to 149 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 4: not go after any other podcast. Specifically my podcast was listed. 150 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 4: There's like a bunch that they listed they will not 151 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 4: pursue legal action. So really, yeah, but I would have 152 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 4: had to do the same thing. I would have had 153 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 4: to spend fuck a loos of money. So I helped 154 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 4: Adam Croll raise some money for it. 155 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: That's what I remember seeing that. 156 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, the whole thing is ridiculous. 157 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: Also joined by the labbyan lover. You guys know what 158 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: Jannis used to go by, Janni's long tongue. 159 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 4: Who tell us from from when he worked at a 160 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 4: long tom. 161 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: Do you wish you had told me that story?

And you 298 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 6: might get there one day too. And I know a 299 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 6: lot of old guys that would love to every season 300 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 6: hunt every single day of the season because they enjoyed 301 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 6: the hunt and to sit in there, stand to be cold, 302 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 6: to watch birds and all that, and to kill their 303 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 6: deer on the last day.

Tough hunt, and I appreciate you 305 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: guys coming on again because I you know, I realized 306 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: this the other day without even really trying to. We're 307 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: sort of doing be honest. Is there a thing? Is 308 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: there a Grand Slam version for deer? So people like 309 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: people aren't familiar with the whole Grand Slam concept, which 310 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: isn't a difficult concept to understand. All these different animals 311 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: have like like a Grand Slam type thing. So with turkeys, 312 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: you would do a grand A Grand Slam for turkeys 313 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: would be you choot an Eastern turkey, a Ostiola turkey, 314 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: a Rio grand, and a Miriam's. It's a Grand Slam. Now, 315 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: then there's the soup. Do you know how these go? 316 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 2: Super Slam then World. 317 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: Slam Super Slam for turkeys, which I which I like 318 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: almost accidentally completed up till the end is you add 319 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: a Goulds turkey and you hunt Goulds in Arizona and 320 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: in mac most people who do it going down to Mexico, 321 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: and then you got the World Slam, which is when 322 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: you step outside of turkeiness, outside of the like, here's 323 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: the thing. All those turkeys, all those turkeys are the 324 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: like North American turkey, you know, and geneticists don't even 325 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: really acknowledge the differences between all these things. But then 326 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,479 Speaker 1: there's another one, the oscillated, which is a whole different species. 327 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: It's like the second turkey species is the oscillated, which 328 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: is down in Yucatan. So you go kill him and 329 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: you got the turkey world slam. Having done this, when 330 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: I explain this to some of my friends, they think 331 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: it's the stupidest thing on the planet, you know. But 332 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: for sheep, it's like it's doll sheep, stone sheep, rocky mountain, 333 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: big horn, desert, binghorn is the sheep whatever slam is 334 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: there a dear one? 335 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 6: I think. 336 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: So what I'm getting at is you boys, you're getting 337 00:16:56,040 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: terribly close. If we have a successful hunt when we 338 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: cross the strait and go out to the island, then 339 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 1: we go for cous Yeah, because then you got like 340 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: a white tail. So you got a white tail, muleer, 341 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: white tail. Sick of black tail. I think you gotta 342 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: do Columbia black tail and maybe a coups deer. 343 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, Columbia black tail in my yard. 344 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll get that whenever you want. What they think 345 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: had like again, geneticists kind of like rewrite all this stuff. 346 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: But now they think that like that that all these 347 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: things like the Columbia black tail, the sick of black tail, 348 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: the mule deer all I mean, they're they're listed as 349 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: one species. A lot of people don't recognize them as subspecies, 350 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: which is totally bizarre because he's deer out here when 351 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: you walk up to be stunned how small they are? 352 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 3: Oh, you mean the ones in Alaska the. 353 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: Sick of black tails are small? Why they so. 354 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 3: Small they can serve heat better or what? 355 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 4: No, it's weird. Yeah, the big deer, like the big 356 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 4: deer from the north, like the ones in like Saskatchewan. 357 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: Giants el bird. Yeah, that's your big white tails. Bergman's principle. 358 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: But there's a couple of things about Bergman's rule or 359 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: Bergman's principle. So, yeah, mammals tend to be larger at 360 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: the northern extreme of their range in the northern hemisphere, 361 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: then to be larger because it has the heat dissipation 362 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: heat retention. But they find that mule deer tend to 363 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: not adhere to that quite as strictly as white tails do. 364 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: So you look at a key like a deer, A 365 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: white tailed deer in the keys very very small, you know, 366 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: one hundred pounds of these Lucky Florida keys. Yeah. White 367 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: tail deer in Alberta two hundred and fifty pounds is giants. 368 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: So so is that same. 369 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 5: The bigger the person, the better they are conserving heat. 370 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why a bigger person, bigger person conservative. 371 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 4: Why is it that those Mexican deer that you see 372 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 4: on television all the time, blacktail or white tail, and 373 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 4: those and mule deer, they're giant? Are they bringing America? 374 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 1: Can the white tails from Mexico small? 375 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm just seeing ones on television shows. 376 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: No, they're like but they're small bodied. And the mule 377 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: deer down there get big antlers. And that's what I'm saying. Muleier. 378 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 1: Some muleier don't conform to that rule quite as strictly 379 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: as other things do. But what you do find is 380 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: the mule deer, like what you say, the desert mule 381 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: deer is gonna have bigger ears, and the ears are 382 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: great for heat retention dissipation. Like you look at the 383 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: wooly mammoth. Wooly mammoth like a big elephant, right, little 384 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: shit in ears, like barely any ear on that thing. 385 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: The Africa's he's a cold climate elephant. You look at 386 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: the African elephant, I mean giant ears for that. Another 387 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: place animals lose a lot of heat is inside of 388 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: their legs, so you always know the hairs thin there. 389 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: You can stand up to dissipate heat, lay down to 390 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: collect to retain heat. 391 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 4: Huh. 392 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: But yet another principle plays in. It's like sick of 393 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: black tails are a coastal and often predominantly the island critter, 394 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, mammals on islands tend to tend 395 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: toward dwarf ism, reptails on islands tend toward gargantuanism. 396 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 4: Well then what what happens with those giant bears? 397 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: The Kodiak bear, Yeah, that's an exception for sure, except. 398 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 5: He just had so much access to to salmon, I 399 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 5: would imagine, yeah, me, whereas a highland bear like brown bears, 400 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 5: and you know, the mountainous regions are like six hundred 401 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 5: pounds to live on barries and stuff. That's what I heard. 402 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the grizzlies that you get in the fire 403 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: North are small. Yeah, there's exceptions all over place. Anyways, 404 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: he's just some dinky ass deers. 405 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 4: Like, what's a big one? What's a big sick of 406 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,959 Speaker 4: black tail? One hundred pounds. 407 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: Bigger than that? 408 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 2: You? 409 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: I don't think you'll get it. I don't think a 410 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: big box going one hundred fifty pounds. 411 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 4: Wow. 412 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of them weigh Like I said, man, 413 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: they're like sub one hundred pounds. You walk up and 414 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: you're like, wow, that's not what I thought I was 415 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: looking at. Oh right, right, But you know, but it's 416 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: like in the antlers are you have to They're just 417 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: not as big as white tails. It's like, imagine that 418 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: like the only let's say, the only woman dudes knew 419 00:20:55,600 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: about was like Pamela Anderson, like the white tails years 420 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: to pant like the Pamela Anderson deer. You know, it's 421 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: just like souped up and a lot of work been 422 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: done on it. It's just like this thing, you know, 423 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: and they get and you look at the cover magazines, 424 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: you look at these giants on farms. So when you 425 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: go out, if everyone knew that woman and only that woman, 426 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna have a harder time appreciating someone of a 427 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,959 Speaker 1: more subtle, refined beauty. 428 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 5: Because the the the deer you're talking about, what you 429 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 5: see on the cover of those hunting magazines are corn fed. 430 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: Basically, they're more than that, man, they're injected even you know, 431 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 1: like magazines like I've talked, I don't want a name 432 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: in the magazine. I got friends, worked, and I right 433 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: there now and then. But in the fall, they always 434 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: put a big giant buck on the cover of the magazine. 435 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 1: And the magazine has a has a editorial standpoint standpoint 436 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: where they're not four fence hunting, so they don't like 437 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: cover fence hunting in the magazine, don't write about fence 438 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 1: hunting in the magazine. But all their bucks got names, man, 439 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, I mean they got bucks that just the 440 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: bucks on the cover of the magazine are just farm bucks. 441 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: It's like buck you're not going to see in the wild. 442 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 1: It's like Larry the Buck. You know, it won't say that. 443 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: It was like a Pennsylvania giant, you know. And the 444 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: photographer took them an hour to try to get a 445 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: shot where it wasn't like a. 446 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 5: Why why are the wolves in Yellowstone? And I don't 447 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 5: know if these are doctored photographs? 448 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 4: Sorry? 449 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 5: Why are they so welcome? 450 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: To the podcast. 451 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 3: Sorry, Brian, back back. 452 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 5: Why are the wolves and Yellowstone so so giant, like 453 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,239 Speaker 5: these guys who've shot them and they're holding them up 454 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 5: and they're literally bigger than by farther person. Is that 455 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 5: because they have so much access to elk and they're just. 456 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: Killing I think they're big, well fed. There's there's conspiracy 457 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 1: theories that many, like the Forest Service somehow wanted to 458 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: really stick it to really screw over Montans and whelming people, 459 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: and so they're like, well, I know what I'll do 460 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: to them. I'll go get super wools, which is what 461 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: they call them. I'll go get super wolves from elsewhere 462 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: Canada and bring them down and let them go. And 463 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 1: these wolves are way bigger than the wolves that were 464 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: here at the time of European contact, and that'll show 465 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: them and they'll know not I don't really know what 466 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: they're like if they're trying to stick it to them, 467 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're sticking it to them about. 468 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,679 Speaker 1: But that's one theory. Is that Another thing would be 469 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: that they right now are expanding their range. They have 470 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: in many areas low like low competition with other wolves 471 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: because they're still in an expansion phase, like the energy 472 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: moves outward, you know, to new territory, and there's a 473 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: lot to eat and they're healthy. 474 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 5: How much does weigh? How much is a big timber wolf? 475 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 1: What they can weigh? A couple hundred pounds? But people 476 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: say that that's like one of those numbers we've thought 477 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: this was before. There's certain numbers that always get thrown around, 478 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: like you know, you know, like mountain lion. Yeah, yeah, 479 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: all that stuff, and so like the wolves are that big, 480 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: but I mean they're giants. They're giants, they're huge. 481 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 6: We did hear that story from a fairly credible source 482 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 6: about the guy that knew the trapper that supposedly trapped 483 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 6: live trapped some of these wolves from the first introduction. 484 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: The ninety seven introduction or whatever, Yeah. 485 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, into Yellowstone, and that he had trapped like sixteen 486 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 6: or seventeen wolves and he had them and he picked 487 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 6: like hand picked the biggest, baddest, meanest wolves, like the 488 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 6: wolves that all the rest of the wolves in the 489 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 6: pens were like like scared of and coward. He's like 490 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 6: those stupid bastards down the states, Let's send in these three. 491 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: He's like, you want wolves? Do you hear wolves? I 492 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: don't know what you're thinking. 493 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: Here, you go. It seems like a crazy idea. It 494 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 4: seems like a crazy idea that's kind of backfiring in 495 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 4: a lot of places. 496 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: I don't know, man. Yeah, the numbers are high, really high. Right, Well, 497 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: they got they start. They feel like they maybe when 498 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: the hunts were running, you know, they felt like they 499 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: turned the corner in Montana a little bit. I know, 500 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: my brother was just and you know, the one that 501 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: just lost the significant portion of elk to bears. He 502 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: was up and saw seven of them. You know, I 503 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,640 Speaker 1: mean nothing. I mean that's like totally anecdotal, but they're out. 504 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: Like it's funny because the area, the area we hunt 505 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: elk in me past as him. Still, we started hunting 506 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: elk in this area, hunt there for ten years. We 507 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: started hunting elk there in ninety six. So it's for 508 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: the wolf thing hit that elk herd that we've hunted 509 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: has been greatly reduced. You know, it's like the elk 510 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: numbers have declined in that specific herd. They had declined 511 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: by you know, fifty percent. 512 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 2: Wow. 513 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: But my brother kills an elk every year. His success 514 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: rate has maintained, has gone the same and I think 515 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 1: it's like elk go down, but his knowledge level of 516 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,239 Speaker 1: the area, you know, has kept pace. He's sort of 517 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: made up for it now. I can only imagine because 518 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 1: before wolves came in, this is like, this sounds totally 519 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: just like one guy's experience. It's by other people say 520 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 1: this too. When wolves came in hard, we're kind of 521 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: like ladies and gentlemen. We're kind of talking about what 522 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: they call the greater Yellowstone ecosystem, or the area around 523 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: Yellowstone where the wolves are now wombing Idaho, Montana. But 524 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: when those wolves came in and really start hammering those elk, 525 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: the elk got paranoid in a way that they weren't before. 526 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 1: You know. I think they just got like a mentality 527 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: of just being like hunted all the time. 528 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 4: You know. 529 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: So it used to it felt for a while like 530 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 1: when you went on an opening day and that they 531 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: hadn't been harassed by hunters. They were just relaxed in 532 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: the way, and they were in vulnerable locations. And I 533 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: think that and many people agree with this, that that 534 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: hurt has adjusted its behavior so much it'll eventually have 535 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: to adjust its behavior a lot in order to learn 536 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: how to cope with the new threat. But think of 537 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: it in the reverse. If you think about taking a 538 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: drive for the Yellstone National Park, you're going to Yellowstone now, 539 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: and the elk and Yellowstone are scared shitless of wolves. 540 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: They're scared shitless of grizzlies. What they don't care about 541 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: are human beings. Okay, so you'll have elk feeding ten 542 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: twenty thirty feet from your car, oblivious to your presence. 543 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: Not oblivious. They know you're there, they just don't care. 544 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 4: Right. 545 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: Yellowstone has them been actively hunted for over one hundred years. Okay, 546 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: so on that chunk of property, they have ruled out 547 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: humans as being something to be worried about. So when 548 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: they're out they can go feed in the area where 549 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: maybe they're safe from wolves or safer from wolves, where 550 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: they can see around or whatever. But also at the 551 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: same time they don't have to worry all about their 552 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: proximity to people. If all of a sudden tomorrow you 553 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: start saying that, you know, I'm gonna let a handful 554 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: of hunters every year come into Yellstone National Park and 555 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: just start taking potshots at these elk, someone would come 556 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: in and stay like these elk are stupid. They just 557 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: stand there and let you shoot them. But it'll be yeah, 558 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,479 Speaker 1: because they haven't adjusted to the threat yet, you know, right, 559 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: And so with wolves they will eventually, hopefully they will 560 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: reach some kind of like technological stalemate with the wolves 561 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: where they seem like a little bit better to withstand 562 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: the kind of pressure. One hope is that's starting to 563 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: happen at the same time. You know, I'm an advocate 564 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: of continuing to whittle down the wolf numbers, just managing 565 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: like you would anything else, you know. 566 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 3: Just because they're still devastating, not so. 567 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: Much because it's so devastating because they're renewable resource, you know, 568 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: are they like they're renewable resource. There's hunter interest in them. 569 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: It's been proven by most people who don't have a 570 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: political as to grind believe that we can maintain a 571 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: harvest on wolves without destroying the resource or damaging the resource, 572 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: like you maintain a viable population of them, the same 573 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: way we try to maintain a viable population of mountain lions. 574 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: Viable population of black bears. 575 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 5: We rebuilt on line are so incredibly plentiful in Utah, 576 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 5: for example, that when you get your fishing license, it 577 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 5: comes automatically with a mountain lion tag? 578 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: Is that true? 579 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's so. I was amazed at that. When you 580 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 5: apply for a fishing license, look. 581 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: It up whether you have a hunt license or not. 582 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 5: When you apply for a fishing license, you get an 583 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 5: automatic tag for a for a mountain lion license. 584 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: I was amazed. 585 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: What do you think of that? 586 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 6: California? 587 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: No, no, Utah hunt lines of California, Utah thought? 588 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 4: While one just attacked a kid in Silicon Valley? Do 589 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 4: you hear about that? Cooper Tino. Six year old kid 590 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 4: got attacked by a mountain lion. His father had a 591 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 4: fucking scream and yelled the mountainline to get it off 592 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 4: the kid. The cops did. Cops found the mountain line, 593 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 4: killed it. They got the DNA from the kid's jacket. 594 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 4: So when they shot the mountain line they did, they 595 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 4: knew they had the right one. 596 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,719 Speaker 5: In Colorado, six year old was walking between her family 597 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 5: or parents, and mountain liin just came down, took her. 598 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: Took her off, not dead though, no kill her. 599 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 4: Took her off. Yeah. I'm not a big fan of 600 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 4: When was that four or five years old? Okay, I'm 601 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 4: not a big fan of casts. 602 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 3: That's a terrible tragedy. I mean, that's like, what in 603 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 3: the world. 604 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 4: I don't know. 605 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: I mean, is it worse than a car? 606 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,959 Speaker 5: I mean well, I mean in all respect, no, I 607 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 5: mean it's so rare, like how many how many people 608 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 5: have really been killed by bound lines? 609 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: One every twenty years? Man, Yeah, it's that's why I 610 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: can't That's why. That's why it's No, it's like what 611 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: there's like one mountain lion fatality every twenty years. 612 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 4: So rare. 613 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 3: Man, it's so rare. 614 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: You know. What I heard recently was the number of 615 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: years I was saying, did you see this the last 616 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: time a bow hunter was killed by a grit? Like 617 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: as much as both, Like, when you're hunting bow hunting 618 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: for elk, you're cow calling, you're making you're mimicking the 619 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: sound of a cow out hit it, you honest, hit 620 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: a nice cow call. 621 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. 622 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. Grizzlies hear that. Yeah, they hear that, and they 623 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: hunt the sound. So bow hunters are frequently, like just 624 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: in my own extended circle, like friends of friends, every 625 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: there's like guys that are calling in grizzlies while trying 626 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: to call out Not I couldn't believe this. Not a 627 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: bowl hunter's been killed in the Rocky Mountains at least 628 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: twenty five years by grizzlies. 629 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, I forget what it was. Someone wrote a statement 630 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 6: saying that it was happening Chuck Adams. 631 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, all due respect to Chuck Adams. I mean he's 632 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: like a like a great hunter, has been writing a 633 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: lot more about a lot more stuff than I ever 634 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: have in my life. Uh, when it comes to hunting. 635 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: Made the mistake of saying, like how sometimes bowl hunters 636 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: do get killed or unfortunately they do get killed, and 637 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: then someone did the research said no, in fact, they don't. 638 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: There's no record of a ballner. 639 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 6: I think it's been long from. 640 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, Ben long from back huntry hunters and anglers was 641 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: the one that wound up saying that, no, it doesn't 642 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: have but anyways, yeah, once every twenty years. I think 643 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: it's once every twenty years. Kids are more vulnerable, the 644 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: kids and ladies, joggers particularly. I think you look like 645 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: something the lion wants to snack on. 646 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 4: It looks like something's running away too, Probably something scared. 647 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 3: Not the way I run. 648 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: I've seen bought to. 649 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 6: Fishing licenses and I didn't see that on my fishing license. 650 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 3: Look it up. I was just told that by my father. 651 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: Does I mean there's like a handful of reasons why 652 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:15,719 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be right. 653 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 4: It doesn't seem to make sense. 654 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 5: You don't, Now, I'm curious. My father told me that 655 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 5: my father did. He just got he just gotta. He 656 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 5: lives in Utah and he and he got a fishing 657 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 5: license and he said that you get an automatic tag 658 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 5: from you. 659 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: I think I think he maybe got fishing line. Yeah, 660 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: we're talking about something that we're not able to resolve, 661 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: which is like one of the. 662 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 4: Right. 663 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: So what he probably got is they probably sent him 664 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: because they had his name and everything, they probably maybe 665 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: sent him a lion application of permit application. Regardless, I've 666 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: seen three lions. He used to seem like a lot, 667 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: and I feel like it's only three lions. Jay Scott, 668 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: who Janice guided for it for a long time. Colbert 669 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: and Scott Outfitters, they guide what they got. Elk Arizona, 670 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: the guy. 671 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 2: In Mexico, Colorado, Muleier, Colorado. 672 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: Mulder. I said to Jaz said, hey, many how many 673 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: lines you've seen? And he spends a lot of time 674 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: behind his binoculars. He said, I'm looking for number thirty five, right, 675 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: now whoa hunt. 676 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 4: He's seen. 677 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: He's glassed up thirty five lions hunt, but he. 678 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 6: Does live behind his binoculars for a great of the year. 679 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 5: The guy who was I think the head of the 680 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 5: fishing game or Wildlife Service or whatever, I remember he 681 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 5: had to step down. He was in California, yep. And 682 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 5: he hunted him outain line very legally. 683 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: In another state. 684 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, And and they flipped out on him. 685 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: You can't hunt lines of coat. 686 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 5: While people were like, listen, the the amount of money 687 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 5: that the parks make on hunting licenses and stuff, that's 688 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 5: what supports you know, the habitat and to maintain the 689 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 5: maintenance of the habitat attata and all the other things. 690 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 4: Well, that's a real problem with California, right. It's ideologically driven. 691 00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 4: It doesn't really have anything to do with matching wildlife. 692 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, they have like California actually have some like outsfolks 693 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: anti hunting people who were on their you know, fishing 694 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: Wildlife Commission. 695 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:09,760 Speaker 4: It's hilarious. 696 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: Usually called fishing game, and there's a lot of states 697 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 1: where it's not fishing game, but California was fishing game 698 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: in California just became not fishing game. They became like 699 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: fishing wildlife to sort of disassociate with the term game, 700 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: which is sort of like objectification of animals. I feel 701 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: bad for people in California. They get hammered all the time. 702 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: Like it was first that you can't hunt lions with 703 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: a dog, then you can't hunt lions at all. Now 704 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 1: it is a big thing to have, like no dog 705 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: hunting whatsoever, like no dog hunting mammals or something of anything. 706 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,919 Speaker 4: They still have bear hunting, but they don't have bear 707 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 4: with dogs. And so I just got rid of that. 708 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:44,919 Speaker 4: When we were at the Hone ranch, they were saying, 709 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 4: it's pointless to hunt bears without dogs. You can't bait, 710 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 4: you can't use dogs. Then you can't find bears. 711 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: Like in that area'd be tough, man, it'd be tough 712 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 1: other states like Montana, you can't run bears with a dog, 713 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,800 Speaker 1: you can't bait for bears. But it's still but the 714 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: topography warrants itself to spot and start bear hunting, which 715 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: is really good, you know. And if it's like like Maine, 716 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: is November very likely through the Humane Society, Maine will 717 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: very likely November vote down bear baiting. Okay, pushed entirely 718 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: funded entirely by Humane Society. But they put it to 719 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 1: a referendum. They had it up before and it lost 720 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: by a few points. It's coming back up now. A 721 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: lot of people think that it'll pass and they'll like 722 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: do a baiting ban on bears and Maine, but Maine's 723 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: largely flat, heavily vegetated. To ban baiting for bears is 724 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 1: essentially to ban bear hunting, and they know this, you know, 725 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: And so that's how people like go after hunting stuff 726 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: is they try to like isolate out little like what 727 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: they consider fringe activities. Because I was reading his poll 728 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: on time. They did this poll in Arizona saying to people, 729 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: do you support a person's right to hunt? 730 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 4: You know? 731 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: And you wind up getting this whatever it is, I 732 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: can't remember exactly what seventy six percent of the population is. Like, Yes, 733 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,760 Speaker 1: you do the same poll and ask people specific questions 734 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 1: and it starts going down, down, down and out, like 735 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: do you support someone's right to hunt? 736 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 4: Blank? 737 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 1: And it drops. So it's like they like the idea 738 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: of it, but the specificity of. 739 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 5: It, especially things like baiting. You know, whatever it is, 740 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 5: it feels like it's trophy. It feels like you're not. 741 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 5: Really there's no skill involved. That's what it feels like, right, 742 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 5: So if you say we're going to bait the bear 743 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 5: in and shoot it, it feels like target. 744 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 4: Well, most people are against hunting bears at all. I 745 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 4: would imagine if you just put an online poll on 746 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 4: Facebook saying how many people are pro bear hunting, it 747 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 4: would be a giant number would be against it. 748 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: When I first proposed it to you, I remember you 749 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 1: were really uneasy about the idea. Yeah, but you wanted 750 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: something was gonna be good to eat. 751 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I wanted to hunt deer. The first time I 752 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 4: wanted a hunt, I was like, man, bear, I don't 753 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 4: know about all that. But having shot a bear now 754 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 4: and eating a bear, they're great to eat. Yeah, they 755 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 4: taste good. They mean they taste good. It's not like 756 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 4: you have to convince yourself. And I had to argue 757 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 4: with people online that were giving me a hard time 758 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 4: that were actually hunters, that were telling me you can't 759 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 4: tell me bear is good to eat. It's ridiculous. You know, 760 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 4: I've been hunting my whole life. You know, everyone I 761 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 4: know says bear tastes off. I'm like, you're crazy, you know, 762 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,399 Speaker 4: I've eaten it. I'm telling you from the flesh in 763 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 4: my mouth chewing it down. It tastes good, doesn't taste 764 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 4: bad at all. That there's good depends upon. 765 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 6: Just because someone is a great hunter does not make 766 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 6: them a good cook of wild game. 767 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 4: True too, right, But it's also people have attitudes about 768 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 4: certain animals where they just discard the meat. You know, 769 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 4: there's some people that have no part. When we were 770 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 4: in camp, we were in Honty camp, there's this one 771 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 4: guy that was with us who would not eat the 772 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 4: bear meat. He just wouldn't eat the beer. He shot 773 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 4: a big ass seven foot bear. 774 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 5: That might also because like there's always been a history 775 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 5: of you know, certain things you don't eat, right, So 776 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 5: so mountain lion or a bear especially. 777 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 4: Apparently tastes really good. 778 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 2: It's really good. 779 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: It is good. 780 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 3: Mountain is good. 781 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:07,760 Speaker 1: It's really like pork, really white flesh, white flesh. 782 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 2: I ate some mountain lion burgers once, and then that 783 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 2: night I had a dream that a mountain lion was 784 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 2: eating me. Is that true? 785 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 5: Mountain lion bird? 786 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 4: That's dark? 787 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: It was laced with the aahwascar For. 788 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 5: Some reason, I would imagine though animal. 789 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 4: Roof. My wife said, I smelled different when I came home, 790 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 4: I've been eaten bear. She actually saw that you smelled different. 791 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:35,720 Speaker 4: She said, I smelled like a killer. 792 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: First time she ever smelled a man. 793 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,280 Speaker 4: She said it was weird because you smell like like threatening. 794 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 4: Really yeah, because he was like, I wonder, I wonder if, like, 795 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 4: if you need predators. 796 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 3: Do it do a grizzly thing. 797 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 4: Incredible. 798 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 5: It's the greatest bear bear call I've ever heard. 799 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: My man, I know you're making I just want to 800 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 1: add real quick about that whole smell thing. 801 00:38:59,080 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 4: My man. 802 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: I was a kid, had a friend who during during 803 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,760 Speaker 1: deer season would only eat like leafy greens and carrots 804 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: and stuff. 805 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, that makes sense. Your breath. 806 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 1: He really felt that. 807 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 4: You know, well, I've seen on hunting shows guys eat 808 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 4: spruce tree needles. They chew the because your breath. Apparently 809 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 4: that's that's the thing that the animals really smell. 810 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 1: That was one of the big things about all the 811 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: charcoal infused clothing and like sand control of clothing. Wow, 812 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: you put it all on. But people say, but dude, 813 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: your whole your whole like smell factory. Man, this is 814 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 1: you exhaling. I think they probably. 815 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 5: Something smell people's breath from like five hundred yards away. 816 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 4: Tim Burnett said that he was hunting once and I 817 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 4: think he said two hundred yards. He said he was 818 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 4: down wind to two hundred yards and he saw an 819 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 4: animal go like that. He knew the animal winded him 820 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 4: and he ran off. 821 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: Dude, absolutely, absolutely, that's nothing. 822 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 4: Two hundred yards nothing, that's incredible. It is incredible to animals. Yes, 823 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 4: the wind came from him to the animal two hundred 824 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 4: yards away. He might have said three. I think you 825 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 4: might have said yeah, but he was like, I can't 826 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,439 Speaker 4: believe that thing can. 827 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 3: Smell that smell particles would travel that quickly. 828 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: Well. Tim was also talking about some new product. It's 829 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 4: like a nose blocker or nose jammer, scent jammer. It's 830 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 4: called you've heard of that. It does something confuses the 831 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 4: hell out of the deer. Like he used it on you, 832 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,799 Speaker 4: put it on you, and like that. You could see 833 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 4: the deer like going like what is that? The deer 834 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 4: was like putting its nose up in the air but 835 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 4: stayed there, didn't run off, but it was like what 836 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 4: is this? Like it was just confusing it. I think 837 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 4: it's called bomb no no, no, So I think it's 838 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 4: called scent Jammer. Yeah. 839 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,839 Speaker 5: Call me the buck Bomb. They call me the buck Bomb, 840 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 5: they called me the fucker.

He was wearing 843 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 4: casual beer. Yep. 844 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 2: Did you bring some this time? 845 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 4: Yeah? Brought. 846 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 3: I got two pieces of cashmere. 847 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: Would you bring your scarf? 848 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 4: I brought a beautiful. 849 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 5: Lightweight cashmere sweater James purse and uh and then a 850 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 5: lovely V neck, a lovely hunter green V neck by 851 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 5: James James.

So you'll have 854 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 5: a good time, all right. 855 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 1: So I feel like we're like on a tangent. 856 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 4: On the tangent we were what podcasts were all. Yeah, 857 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 4: I don't know, but I was credit. I was interested 858 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 4: in the main line eating bear the first bear firste Yeah. 859 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 4: And the guy that did eat the bear yeah yeah. 860 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 4: Well this guy he shot two of them, didn't need 861 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 4: any of it. 862 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 1: I wonder when people are uneasy with bear hunting. I 863 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 1: think there's the charismatic MegaFon a thing at play where 864 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: I mean, there's charas right, they're like they stand up 865 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: on their back feet or the writer Jim Harrison wrote, 866 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: I can't remember which one was books, but he saw 867 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: a guy, a guy had skinned out a bear and 868 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,840 Speaker 1: he had a hanging and he commented that it just 869 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: looked like a dude hanging there. It looked like a 870 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 1: skinned out dude hanging there, and he didn't want anything 871 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: to do with it, you know. So I think there's that, 872 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 1: and then there's also probably just the legacy that the 873 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: bear hunters have kind of created for themselves about all 874 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: that the meat is no good or I don't want 875 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 1: to eat the meat. That certainly doesn't help the case. 876 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty prevalent. I was amazed at how much 877 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 4: backlash I got online, not just from non hunters, which 878 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 4: I expected, but from hunters who said, you know, hunters 879 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 4: wouldn't hunt, predators didn't hunt, and said, you know, it's 880 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 4: ridiculous that you hunt bear because you don't even eat it, 881 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 4: And I'm like, what are you talking about? I'm smoking 882 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 4: at bear ham right now. 883 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: There's a reasonbitz on opportunities, man. I think when people 884 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: say that, oftentimes what they're really saying is because of 885 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: my personal situation how I was brought up where I live. 886 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: I don't hunt bears. I told this story one hundred 887 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 1: times where I was sitting. I know this guy in 888 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: South Carolina that has a deer blind. He calls the 889 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: condo okay, And he built a heated structure with windows 890 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: all the way around it, and he has office chairs 891 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: in it and lead sleds set up in it. And 892 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: this is his hunting blind, in a bunk bed, in 893 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: a microwave. All this stuff is in his hunting blind, 894 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 1: and radiating out from the condo are shooting lanes that 895 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: he's got planted in clover and lfl for the runout 896 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: like spokes of a wheel. Okay, so he can sit 897 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 1: up there and rove around in a rolling off his chair. 898 00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 3: I mean that's like here is just farm. 899 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: Well, he said, she does where you live, and you 900 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 1: know you would have the best time over there hunting 901 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 1: in this thing. But anyways, I'm up in this thing 902 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 1: with him and we're waiting for deer to come out, 903 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 1: and I'm telling him how I'm gonna go out to 904 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 1: hunt dry ground lions, which means not gonna go out 905 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,800 Speaker 1: with a friend who runs lions with hounds in the desert, 906 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 1: and it's much more difficult to run lions in the 907 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 1: snow because one thing the dogs can't tell is what 908 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: way the lion went. So when you have snow, you 909 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 1: can at least deduce the direction of the lion's travel. 910 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: If the dogs lose the track, you can pick the 911 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: track back up again because it's there in the snow, 912 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: and you can tell a lot about the antiquity of 913 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: the track, the age of the track, just based on 914 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:51,840 Speaker 1: when the snow fell, what it looks like like. Snow 915 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: holds tracks in different ways than our stuff. Hunt them 916 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: in the desert. Your dogs might be running a line 917 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: you're just never gonna see a track from, you know. 918 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: And then part of the skill is just being able 919 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: to read sign find the track, judge from the dog's 920 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 1: behavior whether they think the track's hot or not hot, 921 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 1: all these things playing to it's the most difficulty I've 922 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: ever been involved with hunt, or one of the most 923 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: difficult things I've ever been involved with hunting. It I'm 924 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: telling him how I want to go do this, and 925 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: he's up in his rolling office chair and the condo 926 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 1: turns me. It's like, I just don't see the challenge 927 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: and something like that. 928 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 4: So it's like. 929 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: People like when they're like, oh, I don't hunt bears, 930 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 1: It's like, you know why you don't humt bearers, dude, 931 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,919 Speaker 1: because your dad probably didn't hunt bears. You probably don't 932 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: live in a bear hunting. 933 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 4: Area, right you. Or if you did get a hold 934 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 4: of some bear meat, somebody cooked it poorly. 935 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds like you build up. It's like you 936 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,800 Speaker 1: build up what you do and don't do based on 937 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of things, and after a while, a bunch 938 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: of arbitrary things, and after a while, I think it 939 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 1: starts to feel like a code of ethics to you, 940 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: when in fact it's just like you just do what 941 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 1: you were brought up doing. 942 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 5: Then there is a difference, though, I mean, I think 943 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 5: that when you when you see somebody and you walk 944 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 5: in and you say, I'm a trophy hunter, and they 945 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 5: have no one says that no, no. But I'm just 946 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 5: saying that that in people's minds. I think when you 947 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 5: hunt deer, I notice. I just notice that when you 948 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,360 Speaker 5: hunt deer, they go people go, well, dear, you're obviously 949 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 5: hunting it for the meat. It's a little bit like 950 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 5: a cow. It's like a forest cow, whereas I call 951 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 5: them forest cows when you hunt. 952 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 3: When you go kill an elephant. 953 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 5: Let's just take the extreme, a noble animal like an elephant, 954 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 5: or we we always put those kind of words on 955 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 5: that kind of thing, a pachyderm. They got family structures 956 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 5: and stuff viscerally for people like their kids. Yeah, man, 957 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 5: so viscerally there's a very different field, you know, lions, 958 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 5: those kinds of things. There's a very different reaction. And 959 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 5: I think it's it's primarily a positive one in terms 960 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 5: of the fact that I think people just go, you're 961 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 5: doing that. You're killing this noble, beautiful animal for your 962 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 5: own sort of either ego or because you want its 963 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 5: head on your wall. And I think that that's where 964 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 5: people kind of and I think that's a very human thing. 965 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 4: You know what's really ironic. The same guy who wouldn't 966 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 4: eat the bear told me the most delicious meat he 967 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 4: ever had was elephant. 968 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,879 Speaker 1: Wow, he is the contrarian man. 969 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:19,879 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, he's a very nice guy. 970 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 4: It wasn't a contrary and at all. He just was saying, 971 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 4: like he went elephant hunting and they knew the exact 972 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 4: spot to cut out a steak and it was like 973 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 4: from inside the arm, like inside the leg. And he said, 974 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 4: I am telling you it was delicious. It's delicious meat. 975 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 4: And I was like, wow. I would have never First 976 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 4: of all, I knew that the villagers ate the meat, 977 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 4: but I would never assume. 978 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 1: That it was so good that like they cook it 979 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: for the client. 980 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, especially a guy who won't even eat a bear. 981 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 5: Or were elephants hunted by like in that area of Africa? 982 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 5: I wonder, I don't know, difficult bring. 983 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,799 Speaker 1: The kill like you know they like historically they would 984 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: kill drafts, those poisoned darts. Yeah, the fifties. Yeah, this 985 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,879 Speaker 1: old dude from the fifties where they hit a draft 986 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: of the poison dart. 987 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 4: I don't know. 988 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 1: I can't remember how many. They followed for three or 989 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 1: four days till finally starts vomiting and then dies and 990 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: they chop it up. 991 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,720 Speaker 4: Have you ever seen that video? There's an old school 992 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 4: bow hunter. It wasn't Fred Bear, but it was one 993 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 4: of those guys like that.

I mean he had 1006 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 4: to shoot it a bunch of times. He's pulling a boat. 1007 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,839 Speaker 4: It's a bowbo like, not like a compound bow from 1008 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 4: a Yeah. Yeah, it was a regular bow and the 1009 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 4: guy just kept shooting it and the elephants like And 1010 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 4: it was a screwy video because it was very clear 1011 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 4: that the sound in the video was not the actual 1012 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,800 Speaker 4: sound of the encounter. They had added it in in 1013 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 4: post like a movie shop would. 1014 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a there's a video of Massai warriors throwing 1015 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 5: like five or six of them just throwing these you know, 1016 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 5: I don't know if you know Massi the Bantu Massie 1017 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 5: from from Kenya tall yeah sixty six. We were, and 1018 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 5: they traditionally used to live essentially total carnivores. They live 1019 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 5: on about seven quarts of high fat milk a day, 1020 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 5: and they would tap the vein of their cattle and 1021 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 5: drink the blood and that was primarily their diet, and 1022 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 5: then they would eat meat when they could afford it. 1023 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 5: And you see these massi, five or six of them, 1024 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 5: with those long spears throwing them into a male lion. Really, 1025 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 5: oh dude, they're just coming up and going running woom. 1026 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 5: And that line just basically has five long. 1027 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,720 Speaker 3: Spears in it. It starts to bucket, it just dies. 1028 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,799 Speaker 3: And lion lion in that. 1029 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 5: Part of Africa are very aware of humans. They will 1030 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 5: run away from you. They do not they even when 1031 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 5: they hunt lion on horseback, lions give chase. 1032 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 4: They don't. We We've talked about this many times on 1033 00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 4: other podcasts. It's the hunting in Africa controversy. And I 1034 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 4: really liked that piece that you wrote about about hunting 1035 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,120 Speaker 4: in Africa, like this whole thing about what this controversy 1036 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 4: involving this young girl who's going there, and that you were, 1037 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 4: you know, essentially saying that a lot of the differences 1038 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 4: the way people were approaching her, it's sexist. If it 1039 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 4: was a man, that it was that was doing the 1040 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 4: same thing. There would be some blowback, but not as 1041 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:51,720 Speaker 4: much he would there were. 1042 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: If some dude, you know, some guy like worked at 1043 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,839 Speaker 1: the phone company his whole life and say something goes 1044 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 1: to Africa and shot a couple el elf and a 1045 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 1: leopard and put up on his Facebook page, you would 1046 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 1: have got zero visits or a lot. 1047 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,839 Speaker 4: No one would have cared very little, very. 1048 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 6: Like you were saying, how they kind of attacked the 1049 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 6: little you know, pieces of oh yeah. 1050 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 4: History. It's a beautiful girl from Texas who's a cheerleader 1051 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 4: and she wants to be she wants to be Steve Renella. 1052 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 4: She wants to be a female version of Steve Renella. 1053 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 4: So she's trying to like be a part of the 1054 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 4: hunting you know, professional hunting community. 1055 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 3: So that is rare because women have traditionally never been hunters. 1056 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: Men have right, well, I point out, except for they 1057 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: think that there was very low sexual dimorphism in Neanderthals, 1058 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:42,919 Speaker 1: and they think that maybe Neanderthal women hunt right along 1059 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:43,760 Speaker 1: everybody starts. 1060 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 4: While they died off, nobody wants to. They had a 1061 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 4: way built like you, they had a way longer run 1062 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 4: than we'll have you think. 1063 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: They were in Europe five hundred thousand years before we were. 1064 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, but we'll be here for millions of years. No, 1065 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 4: we won't, I predict you want to bet. Really, I'd 1066 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 4: rather be there to collect the world's only six thousand 1067 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 4: years olds. I don't know what the hell you're talking about. 1068 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:12,800 Speaker 3: Correct. 1069 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 4: But one of the things that I find disturbing about 1070 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 4: the whole Africa thing is, uh, there's a lot of these, 1071 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 4: like these bow hunting shows. These people go over there 1072 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 4: to collect like I'm gonna get one of these and 1073 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,239 Speaker 4: one of those, and they're doing it, and these high 1074 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 4: fence joints, and it's it's just it's weird. Man. 1075 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:37,240 Speaker 1: In Africa, Yeah, South Africa. When someone goes to South Africa, 1076 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: they're hunting. Like say, like, if you go to South Africa, 1077 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: you're hunting fence property. It's just like if you go 1078 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 1: to New Zealand and shoot a large red deer, you 1079 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: shot it on fence ground, you know, like these three 1080 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: hundred inches red deer to come out on New Zealand, buddy. 1081 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,439 Speaker 4: But here, but hold on, here's the important part. Those 1082 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 4: animals were literally on the verge of extinction before these 1083 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 4: high fence operations came into play. So it's such as 1084 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 4: twenty two. On one hand, you see, well, it's a 1085 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,720 Speaker 4: renewable resource and now these animals are actually very plentiful 1086 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 4: and they're no longer worried about extinct being extinct. But 1087 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 4: on the other hand, during a yard, it's essentially a yard. 1088 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:16,879 Speaker 4: It maybe it's ten thousand acres, but it's a ten 1089 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 4: thousand acre fenced in yard. 1090 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, that was always the argument. 1091 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 5: If you want to save the animals, make it profitable 1092 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,840 Speaker 5: to hunt them, you know, the best the argument for Texas, 1093 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 5: But the biggest uh, the biggest threat that was more habitat. 1094 00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's habitat. But it definitely pays to 1095 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: have hunt. It definitely pays to have hunter interest. I mean, 1096 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: if you look at like you look at all these 1097 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: things that have you know, you got these organizations National 1098 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 1: Wild Turkey Federation, Rocky Mountain out Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, Trot Unlimited. 1099 00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: These are things that these are powerful political organizations or 1100 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: have political impact. They have a lot of money, and 1101 00:53:56,640 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 1: they're based around people's love of hunting for or fishing 1102 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 1: for these species. And it winds up being that like 1103 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 1: you can't really get away with messing with these animals 1104 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 1: because these people are gonna come after you and make 1105 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 1: your life help you know, if you're gonna destroy habitat 1106 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 1: or whatever. So it does not on the individual sense. 1107 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 1: Like on an individual sens it's like you just got shot. 1108 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 1: That sucks. But I don't think about animals and the 1109 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: individual sense. I think a mind like a population level 1110 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: kind of thing. And if you are concerned about the 1111 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 1: long term viability of a population of animals in this 1112 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 1: country and apparently in many countries in Africa and certainly 1113 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 1: in Canada, it pays if people want to kill you. 1114 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: It's like advantageous if people have If people are motivated 1115 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: through desires for trophies, meet whatever to hunt for you, 1116 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: you have you have more political clout as a species exact. 1117 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 4: People do worry about the populations of elephants, right, even rhinos. 1118 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 4: But if you want to shoot an elephant, you can pay. 1119 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 4: I think it's like thirty thousand dollars and you can 1120 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 4: shoot a fucking an elephant. I mean, I watched his show, 1121 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 4: and this is where it was really really bothered me 1122 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,400 Speaker 4: because they were calling it a bow hunt. So this 1123 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 4: guy gets out there, he sticks this bow. I mean 1124 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 4: he sticks an arrow into this elephant. The elephant charges him, 1125 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 4: and then the guide blows one through the elephant's brain, 1126 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 4: and the elephants down. The arrow hit look fatal probably eventually, 1127 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:27,359 Speaker 4: maybe it's hard to tell. 1128 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 1: You don't think it would have bled out, or it 1129 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: might have led out. 1130 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,439 Speaker 4: I don't think the guy was pulling a hard enough bow. 1131 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 4: I mean, I think you know, if you're gonna kill 1132 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 4: an elephant, you got a lot of animal. 1133 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 3: How much they weighed ten thousand pounds something crazy? 1134 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 4: It was an enormous elephant though they weigh about ten 1135 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:48,879 Speaker 4: thousand pounds, So the guy's only about thirty yards away. 1136 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 4: He hits the elephant with the arrow. The elephant recognizes 1137 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 4: immediately that this guy with the bow is the one 1138 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 4: who shot him, starts running towards him, and the guide 1139 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:00,919 Speaker 4: boom blows the elephant through the brain, and then there's 1140 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,800 Speaker 4: congratulating him on his kill, and I'm like, what what? 1141 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 4: What is this? This is weird. 1142 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:12,000 Speaker 5: I think that the alternative if you don't make hunting profitable, 1143 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 5: then what happens with people are anti hunting. The alternative 1144 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 5: is what to enforce a bannon hunting with laws That 1145 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:21,319 Speaker 5: doesn't work well? 1146 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 4: But you have massive poaching problems. Yeah, but look at 1147 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,120 Speaker 4: it this way. How many people are going to donate 1148 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 4: thirty thousand dollars to keep an elephant populations healthy? Exactly? 1149 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 4: If it is it even one? I mean, how many people? 1150 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,319 Speaker 4: Maybe you have to run some kind of drive good luck. Yeah, 1151 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 4: you're not going to have you too. 1152 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:42,480 Speaker 1: What's his name? 1153 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:44,719 Speaker 4: He will? But you're right. 1154 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 3: I mean that's a very good point. 1155 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 4: It's a very good point because there's no other way 1156 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 4: to generate that amount of money. I mean, think about 1157 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 4: how many people get hunting tags. I mean, how many 1158 00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 4: people get whitel deer tags? 1159 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 5: Exactly what you were saying about California's ideological and I 1160 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,879 Speaker 5: think any kind of ideology, you know, that's the enemy. 1161 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:09,319 Speaker 5: That's where, that's where rationality and figuring out what's best 1162 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:09,840 Speaker 5: for the animal. 1163 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 3: Actually, you know, it's interesting, but. 1164 00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:15,120 Speaker 4: It's even to someone like me who enjoys hunting, it's disturbing. 1165 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 4: I don't like it. I don't like seeing it. I 1166 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 4: don't like it. I don't like the idea behind it. 1167 00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 4: I don't like seeing these sloppy, goofy fucks just hop 1168 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 4: on planes and go shoot these animals in someone's yard. 1169 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,400 Speaker 4: It just seems weird to me. The whole thing seems off. 1170 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 4: It doesn't seem legit. You know, there's some like, WHI look, 1171 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 4: there's nothing wrong with farming. I enjoy a nice steak. 1172 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 4: I don't think there's anything wrong with farming. But when 1173 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 4: you take these wild animals and you're pretending that you're hunting, 1174 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,440 Speaker 4: but really you're kind of doing some pseudo farming type thing, 1175 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 4: that's really what's going on. It's like you're shooting fish 1176 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 4: in a barrel, literally literally shooting fish in a barrel. 1177 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 4: That's really what you're doing. Who was it? 1178 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:00,479 Speaker 1: I feel like you cracked me when I mentioned this before. 1179 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 1: But was it Jesse Helms or someone who's like, I know, 1180 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: I can't tell you what pornography is, but no, that was. 1181 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,600 Speaker 3: A Supreme Justice that was That was when it came 1182 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 3: to the Supreme Court. 1183 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 4: What guy was?

He said, I don't. 1188 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1189 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 3: I know it when I see it. 1190 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that is one like that's one thing I 1191 00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 1: feel about as far as fair chase, it's difficult to define. 1192 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 1: It's difficult to define down fair chase because I'll say, like, 1193 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 1: I don't agree with fence honey. Like, to me, it 1194 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 1: just feels like farming, and you're bullshitting yourself and others 1195 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: when you act like it's hunting. People Like, what if 1196 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: I'm hunting a fence place that's like twelve thousand acres, 1197 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: you know, way bigger than an individual animals home. 1198 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 4: Range start under you know who that is?

So it's like it's 1202 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 1: like it's so hard for me to sit down and say, 1203 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 1: like fair chase hunting is blank. But some stuff's just 1204 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: not right, you know, it's just not We'll tell you 1205 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 1: what is fair chase hunting black tailed deer Prince Wales 1206 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 1: island in the rain and fog. 1207 00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, climb so fair. 1208 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 1: Chase in fact that I really have no idea.

I think we'll do good. 1212 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 1: If we were going there and the weather was going 1213 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 1: to be good and it's not. If we're going to 1214 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:53,200 Speaker 1: the weather would be good, I think that we would 1215 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: have just a fantastic hunt. I think we'd be coming 1216 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 1: back every night. 1217 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:56,439 Speaker 4: With with deer. 1218 00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,000 Speaker 1: But it's just you know, you get the when the fog, 1219 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 1: the rain, things get hard, things get miserable. Yeah, fair, chase, Yeah, 1220 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:11,920 Speaker 1: anything you want to add. 1221 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:16,120 Speaker 4: You try to keep this to an hour. Yeah, yeah, 1222 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 4: not doing anything you want to sleep. 1223 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,680 Speaker 1: Because our audience we don't have the amount of drug 1224 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 1: takers that your audience does. 1225 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 4: That's not what it is. You know what it is. 1226 01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 4: It's commuters. It's like you by imposing a time, you know, like, look, 1227 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 4: if someone downloads a podcast, most people have enough room 1228 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,919 Speaker 4: on their phone or on the whatever, the computer wherever 1229 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 4: they put it. They have enough room for three hours 1230 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 4: or five hours or whatever, and they delete the old 1231 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 4: ones when they run out of time. But when someone's 1232 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 4: on a plane or when someone's like driving, that's when 1233 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 4: I think they appreciate long podcasts. 1234 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure. 1235 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you don't have to listen to all of it. 1236 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 4: Everybody was telling me when I first started doing podcasts, 1237 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 4: you got to dedit this. That's one of the earliest complaints. 1238 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 1: The ear piece of advice they have was the even 1239 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: Ari was. 1240 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:05,919 Speaker 4: One of my best friends. 1241 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 3: Three hours. 1242 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 4: What was the idea? Just because I wanted to do 1243 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 4: three hours? 1244 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 1: You wanted to feel as long as a really good movie? Man. 1245 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:22,080 Speaker 4: No, My my personal instinct was I enjoy talking to 1246 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 4: people for long periods of time because I think the 1247 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 4: conversations they make, they take turns, and as long as 1248 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 4: my attention span is there while I'm having a conversation, 1249 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 4: why stop it, keep it rolling? Are you tired? You 1250 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 4: tired of talking? If you're not tired of talking, let's 1251 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 4: keep talking. That's always been my feeling because I think 1252 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,440 Speaker 4: that the deeper you get into a conversation, a conversation 1253 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 4: is uh, it plays out not you know. I mean, 1254 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 4: it's not like a movie. Obviously a movie is far 1255 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 4: more difficult to make. But there's turns and twists, and 1256 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 4: you find out more about a person, and you get 1257 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 4: to understand a person's style of communicating, and while while 1258 01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 4: you're talking to someone, when you're doing a podcast, especially 1259 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:00,960 Speaker 4: when you're the host of a podcast, because you're kind 1260 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 4: of thinking about the entertainment value of it or how 1261 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 4: it should be. I'm constantly thinking at it, about it, 1262 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:10,040 Speaker 4: not just as a person who's engaged in a conversation, 1263 01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 4: but as a person who might be listening to this. 1264 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 4: I want to try to play Devil's advocate as much 1265 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,000 Speaker 4: as possible. I want to try to cover as many 1266 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 4: points of view as possible. And I also I'm kind 1267 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 4: of understanding this person's style of communicating, and I'm trying 1268 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 4: to figure out a way to not talk over them 1269 01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 4: or pause as much as possible, or give them as 1270 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 4: much of an opportunity to expound on their ideas. That 1271 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 4: takes time, you know, I think that you know some podcasts. 1272 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 4: I bailed on something the other day after two hours? 1273 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 4: Did this guy's bar? Really? Thanks a lot? Man? And 1274 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 4: I tell you say they can kind of tell remember that. 1275 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 1: Mitch Hedberg joke about taking attention deficit disorder drugs even 1276 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:53,280 Speaker 1: though he's not afflicted. 1277 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 4: How did it go? He said? 1278 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:56,640 Speaker 1: He runs around saying, man, there's gotta be more to 1279 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 1: that story. 1280 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,240 Speaker 4: Kind of hilarious, That's hilarious. 1281 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 5: Some people are just like, you know what with Dimitri 1282 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 5: Martin was like he said he was doing a joke 1283 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 5: and he goes. One thing you never hear is somebody say, God, 1284 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 5: wish that guy had talked more about himself at that party, 1285 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:19,400 Speaker 5: or Wow, I wish that. 1286 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 4: Guy would drop more names. 1287 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't really get a strong sense of his 1288 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 1: professional connections. 1289 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 4: Do you know that way? You know that way? 1290 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 5: And I think I can say it Nick Nolty, because 1291 01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 5: he's been such a product of Hollywood for so long. 1292 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 5: He literally I spent a long time with him.
