Speaker 2: Howdy, folks.

7
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: Fun fact for you, if you wear a big fake

8
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: wig on your face, it messes with the audio. Dude,

9
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: static electricity, Phil, what's happening over there in the boot?

10
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: Oh? Not a whole lot.

11
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 4: What's going on with you?

12
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: Kel Oh?

13
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 4: Not a whole lot.

14
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: So youth is in the air. It's October thirty one

15
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: and children still dress up. So we're going to talk

16
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: about that. What motivates them? Why are they here? I

17
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: think we should start with our actual ages first, but

18
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,919
Speaker 1: we won't because there's a lady present snorts under the table.

19
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about, Karen. You're dressed up?

20
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 5: Is something I am. I am a Chinese takeout box.

21
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: That says, enjoy What's in the box, Low Maine, what's

22
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: in the box?

23
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 6: Cory? What are you? Well?

24
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: I'm Merlin the Wizard. But this is also how I

25
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: feel after an unsuccessful archery season, Old and Gray.

26
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: Oh okay, nice. Is there any other reason for the theme.

27
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: Well, my kid, my six year old boy Marshall, he's

28
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: gonna be King Arthur of the Arthurian book series stories.

29
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 2: So I figured i'd go in there as the short

30
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: Merlin sweet, assuming Merlin was probably six ' two. I'm

31
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: a few inches shorter than the real Merlin. But yeah,

32
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 2: here I am.

33
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: Any think just magical powers go with height hand in hand,

34
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: well sort of.

35
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 2: He's probably got a duck a lot where I'm just

36
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 2: going right through, so got that going for me. But yeah,

37
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 2: I feel like height might be able to help you

38
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: see the future. You can see around the earth a

39
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: little bit farther.

40
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like it, But I like it, Phil, Yes,

41
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: you're dressed up as a something. I thought it was

42
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 1: from Beetlejuice. It looks very similar to one of the

43
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: little beal Juice monsters.

44
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 4: No, this is just a generic wraith, but I like

45
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 4: that the eyes glow and it's kind of like an Avian.

46
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 4: It's an avian looking skull, right, it's scary it is? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

47
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 4: I don't know. Would you like what's the what's the

48
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 4: closest like real life comp to what this skull looks like.

49
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 4: What would you say? Somebody's probably seen like a few

50
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 4: bird skulls in their life.

51
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: Well, there's that giant stork in Africa that's got a

52
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: very similar beak to that. What is that albatross? No,

53
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a stork. I think it's one

54
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 1: of the largest birds outside of like the emu and

55
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: the ostrich m. Yeah.

56
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, you look like a pelican.

57
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: And Phil you have kids, right, I do?

58
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 4: I have two children.

59
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: Okay, so your guys's costumes are making sense. Let's go

60
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: back to Carin. You're an adult who dressed up.

61
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 5: Why because they're on the radio live.

62
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 4: You know.

63
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 5: It's for the amusement of others. Oh, and it brings

64
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 5: joy to one's heart sometimes, no matter how old you are.

65
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: Oh, we also have a thrilling contest in the office today.

66
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: Best costume wins best costume.

67
00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 4: Oh so awesome.

68
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: I think we got top four costumes so far.

69
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: Awesome.

70
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: Uh. Yeah.

71
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: For some reason, probably due to my email settings, I

72
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: don't get a lot of office emails.

73
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 4: You don't say, I do say. Well, first of all,

74
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 4: cal you're dressed up, but not in the way people

75
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 4: might think. I think I've seen you wear this exact

76
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 4: outfit to sports men's conventions before.

77
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: That is that true? Maybe this this is a actual

78
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: pheasant tie.

79
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 4: It looks wonderful.

80
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. Yeah, it's very classy. And I

81
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: got this. This is my most worn and most favorite

82
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: sports coat, of which I own two and I got

83
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: it for seven dollars at a thrift shop in Ketchumidaho.

84
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 4: The lovely corduroy. Thank you to.

85
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: Get some obow patches. You do starting to fade back there, Yeah,

86
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: but Granny's dead so that was my seamstress. Anyway, Corey,

87
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: you just got back from a successful hunt. Carrinne, I

88
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: know you had a successful opening day hunt. You guys

89
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: were both Opening day hunts. Yeah, Corey was guiding, helping

90
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: assist day, helping a friend.

91
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 2: I guided for too long to say, I'm still right.

92
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: I was helping a buddy.

93
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

94
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: Spencer Newhart, which I wish he was here to tell

95
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 2: the story.

96
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's odd that he's not. I thought he would be.

97
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's probably cutting meat.

98
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: Oh he might be his elk.

99
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, so who wants to tell their tale? First?

100
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: Here go ahead, Corey, Well, yeah, I'm happy to Spencer Newhart,

101
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: as we all know, the host of Meat Eater Trivia,

102
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: drew a really good rifle tag for Montana and I

103
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: went out along with another ex mediator colleague and a

104
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: few of Spencer's buddies from South Dakota, and we all

105
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: went out to help Spencer find his first bowl and

106
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,799
Speaker 2: we were successful opening morning by I think eight fifteen,

107
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 2: we had a nice six by four on the ground,

108
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: an old fighter, a warrior.

109
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 5: Did you just did you see him that morning or

110
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 5: did you put him to bed the night before?

111
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 2: A couple of Spencer's buddies dug him up the day

112
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: before the night before, so we had all split up

113
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 2: the day before opener to cover some ground and find

114
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: some milk, and we found plenty of elk. So we

115
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: had Plan A, B and C going into opening day.

116
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 2: And even with a good trophy unit tag, there were

117
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: still some other hunters in there creating a little pressure.

118
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: So our Plan A hit the dirt by about four

119
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 2: point thirty in the morning, a couple hours before daylight.

120
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 2: We had to reroute to Plan B and they were

121
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 2: still fired up bugling where we were, so right at

122
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: daylight we were able to put eyes on one of

123
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: the elk that were spotted the day before, and again,

124
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 2: I think thirty minutes after the sun came up, we

125
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 2: had him down on the ground. Spencer made a couple

126
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 2: of great shots on him from a long ways out. Oh,

127
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: practice made perfect for Spencer.

128
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you said you were able to turn the

129
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 1: herd with a bugle, Yeah, which is sweet. I mean, yeah,

130
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: he got the full elk hunting experience, seeing what elk

131
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: do in the during the rut more in September. But

132
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: this was late October October twenty sixth and these elk

133
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: were still very fired up.

134
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: The bowl and the cows were kinda They were about

135
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: six hundred yards away, walking slightly away. So I decided

136
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 2: to rip a bugle just to see what would happen

137
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: because the herd bowl was so talkative, and it actually

138
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: turned the cows and they started kind of running towards us.

139
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: Stopped at about five hundred yards out, and the bowl

140
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 2: was a little hesitant to come in, but the cows

141
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 2: wanted to come in, and of course he wanted to

142
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: follow those cows, so got ye a little bit closer

143
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: and Spencer was able to put a couple of good

144
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: shots into him. Yeah, it was great.

145
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that.

146
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 4: Love that.

147
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: Congrat Spencer, new heart.

148
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 5: Congrats grat Spencer.

149
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: Care in what happened to you?

150
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 5: Well, I'll make it short.

151
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: Can you pull that mike a little before you.

152
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 5: I'll make it short. There are definitely some highs and lows.

153
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 5: I was out with myself in a spot I've successfully

154
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 5: harvested mule deer from and this year I noticed the

155
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 5: past couple of days before opening that I had gone

156
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 5: out just more more white tail and I wasn't quite

157
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 5: sure if I was wanting to use my white tail

158
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 5: B tag for that hunt or you know, I didn't

159
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 5: know what I was going to see.

160
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, you had a dough tag, a white tail dose specific.

161
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 2: Tag, yeah, and your general tag, which is.

162
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: Good for either sex in that particular exactly.

163
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 7: Yep.

164
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 5: And I've still got mule deer from the other year,

165
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 5: so I was thinking about wanting some whitetail meat. I

166
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 5: just didn't know, you know what, I want to shoot

167
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 5: a white tail buck and it would be my first

168
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 5: or use my B tag. And there are a couple

169
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 5: of issues with with other hunters coming a little too

170
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 5: close to comfort for me. Someone who parked himself within

171
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 5: four hundred yards, so we were hunting the same the

172
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 5: same corner h and made some mistakes, like messed up

173
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 5: big time with my turrets, new new rifle this year,

174
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 5: new scope, new set up, so fast forward through all

175
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 5: all of the drama. But I had wounded my buck

176
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 5: and it was sitting on the public side, right up

177
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 5: against the fence with private land, and a couple of

178
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 5: other deer had hopped the fence to been more around

179
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 5: my injured buck, and you know, I was just kind

180
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 5: of waiting to see did my first and second shot

181
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 5: were they enough to uh kill him or not? But

182
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 5: then this other hunter popped out and started crawling toward

183
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 5: these other deer where my injured deer was, and uh it.

184
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: Was on the private side of the thing.

185
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 5: Yeah you did that hunter took a shot at one

186
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 5: of the deer there, and my deer jumped up and

187
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:27,719
Speaker 5: popped over the fence, and uh, I was very emotional

188
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 5: and shaken and in hysterics, and I called you cal

189
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 5: and you were like, calm the fuck down, and and

190
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 5: do you well you were you were you were much

191
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 5: nicer than that, but but it's what I needed to hear.

192
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 5: You helped me out, made some phone calls, got in

193
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 5: touch with f w P, who got in touch with

194
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 5: the landowner. Uh, and who's gracious enough to give me

195
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 5: permission to access and fast forward you know, I mean,

196
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 5: killed deer, drug it back to state and.

197
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: Going through your head out, I just need to get

198
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: the deer. Oh yeah, you're so committed already that there

199
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 1: could have been more mistakes made.

200
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 5: Oh for sure I was. I was not in my

201
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 5: right mind. And you you heard most of most of that.

202
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: But yeah, called the game warden. Game warden says, give

203
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 1: me the details. Calls the landowner and in this case

204
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,719
Speaker 1: the landowner or the agents of the landowner or uh,

205
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: super understanding, and they said great, thanks for calling.

206
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 5: Oh them so much.

207
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: Not only can you trustpass, but you can trustpass and

208
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: make a follow up shot if it's necessary. And you know,

209
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: it was coming up on dark and they didn't us

210
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: anything that part exactly.

211
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 5: It was coming up on dark. My phone was almost dead,

212
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 5: you know, all.

213
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: The modern tragedy. My phone only has seven percent battery live.

214
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 5: And then you and Sam came and help me drag

215
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 5: that deer out and uh, yeah, now it's hanging. So

216
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 5: that was my first Montana whitetail Buck.

217
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 2: Thank you, congrats.

218
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: Heck yeah, how are we doing on our first Yeah?

Speaker 7: I'm feeling a little old since I don't have my

229
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 7: costume on with the rest of you guys, but it's

230
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 7: been a long time since I put a Halloween costume on.

231
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: Well, as it was just explained to me Jeff, it's

232
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: not just for children. It brings joy, I think, is

233
00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: what all Chinese food box set right.

234
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 6: UH.

235
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: The Congressional Sportsman's Foundation I'm familiar with, But will you

236
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: please just let folks know the CSF isn't as out

237
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: in front of I think like the general public as

238
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: a lot of other UH organizations are very very powerful

239
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: lobbying group on behalf of sportsman's interests in the United States.

240
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: Can can you give us a quick rundown on on

241
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 1: who and what CSF does.

242
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 7: Sure, and and thanks for having me on the show.

243
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 7: Tel And and I do kind of hate the fact

244
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 7: that we aren't a better known household word, but we've

245
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 7: been around for thirty five years. We do work exclusively

246
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 7: in the policy arena, where the where the tip of

247
00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 7: the sphere for hunters, anglers, recreational shooters, traps. We work.

248
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 7: We are founded to work in Washington, d C. In

249
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 7: the United States, alongside the United States Congress. In the

250
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,959
Speaker 7: last twenty years we've expanded to all fifty states, realizing

251
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 7: that a lot of the wildlife management decisions that affect

252
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 7: sportsmen and women actually get made at the state level,

253
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 7: so we are very immersed. I think one of the

254
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 7: big things that sets us apart is we have a

255
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 7: bipartisan approach so that we can work with both sides

256
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 7: of the aisle on the uncertainty in politics is the

257
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 7: pendulum swings and one party is not going to be

258
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 7: in power all the time, certainly in Washington. Some states

259
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 7: is a little bit different. But we want to be

260
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 7: able to make sure that the sports one and men

261
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 7: and women have a seat at the table, regardless of

262
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 7: who's in political.

263
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: Office, and very timely right we have impending election no

264
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: matter what, going to have a new administration. And recently

265
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: you spoke with our good buddy and fantastic writer Jordan

266
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: Sillers for an article I believe it is titled hunters

267
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: could decide the twenty twenty four presidential election and could

268
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: you just tell us how is that true? How do

269
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: hunters and anglers play into politics, especially right now?

270
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 7: So the absolute certainty of the truth is if you

271
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 7: don't vote, you're not engaging in your constitutional right to

272
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 7: decide who gets elected from the president right down to

273
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 7: your local elections. And so clearly every citizen in this

274
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 7: great country has that opportunity to impact the election. So

275
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 7: the Civics lesson is, please make sure that you are

276
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 7: exercising your rights. As more to the point of sportsmen

277
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 7: and women, you know, they're different sort of polling studies

278
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 7: and whatnot out there that suggest that that sportsmen and

279
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 7: women don't show up to the polls and numbers, you know,

280
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 7: as they should. So that begs the question, why are

281
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 7: you not going to the pole? Why are we not

282
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 7: allowing ourselves, with our passions for the great outdoors to

283
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 7: have our voices heard this is the way every citizen

284
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 7: in this country can do it. So our encouragement in

285
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 7: our campaign here at CSF is I hunt, I fish,

286
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 7: I vote, and we're trying to turn out the vote

287
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 7: because it makes our job a whole lot easier if

288
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 7: we have pro sportsmen and women elected officials or at

289
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 7: least people that can can relate to the fact that

290
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 7: we are legitimate conservationists and that what we do is

291
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 7: really beneficial for our landscapes. And so yeah, it's important,

292
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 7: you know, and if you're going to be in a

293
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 7: tree stand, or you're going to be in a duck line,

294
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 7: or you're going to be in an alpine meadow or somewhere,

295
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 7: I mean, there are all kinds of opportunities to vote early.

296
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 7: And you know, we're just trying to encourage the sportsman's

297
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 7: vote to get out, turnout, not telling you who to

298
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 7: vote for, but man, make your.

299
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 4: Boys be are well, said darn Right and Jeff.

300
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: One. One thing that I think may prohibit sportsmen and

301
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: women from showing up to the polls is, you know,

302
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: we get this rhetoric out there that says, well, yeah,

303
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: you can vote for your interests, but then you're voting

304
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: against these interests. Is it is that true? Do we

305
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: have to choose between hunting and angling rights and our

306
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: other rights or is it possible to lobby and have

307
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 1: it all?

308
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 7: You know, we just based on the people that that

309
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 7: we work with on a routine basis in the United

310
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 7: States Congress, I think it's possible.

311
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 6: To have it all.

312
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 7: And again, are there going to be occasions where that

313
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 7: creates a conflict?

314
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 5: Yeah?

315
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 7: Probably does, But a lot of times, you know, just

316
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 7: making sure that you're sending a little heeded, smart people

317
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 7: up to Washington and your state capitals and stuff, and

318
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 7: then at least we have a run and shot at

319
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 7: being able to explain to them about hunting and fishing

320
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 7: and how it impacts not only the environment, not only conservation,

321
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 7: but the economy. And now those those arguments can carry

322
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 7: the day. So it's not a perfect, definitely one hundred

323
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 7: percent cow that I could say, yeah, check the box,

324
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 7: But more times than not, I would say, yes, it does.

325
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: That's great, Jeff. And let's say we've already voted, the

326
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: election has already been had. Is our job over what

327
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: do we do?

328
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,959
Speaker 7: Absolutely not? You know, that's where we ask you, you know,

329
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 7: stay engaged, stay informed, elected officials are still responsive to constituents.

330
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 7: You know, on you guys are in your states, You've

331
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 7: got your elected officials in your state. I live over

332
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 7: in Maryland and so have my elected officials. And if

333
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 7: you don't, if you don't have your voice heard even

334
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 7: after the elections, and they're going to ignore you. You know,

335
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 7: the old squeaky wheel gets the grease. And there again,

336
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 7: that's what we're completely set up to do. If you

337
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 7: don't want to do it yourself, reach through. We've got

338
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 7: our website as an interactive feature. To click on any

339
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 7: state in the United States. You can find out who

340
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 7: your state legislators are, who your federal legislators are, in

341
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 7: the Congressional Caucus, Sportsman's Caucus, and you know, we can

342
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 7: help you get engaged in this kind of stuff or

343
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 7: you can you know, invite you to attend some things

344
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 7: in your own states. So no, absolutely, this is not

345
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 7: a once every two year, every four year saying please

346
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 7: please don't do that.

347
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: That's fantastic, Jevin. And so how do our very engaged

348
00:19:55,760 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: listeners and viewers find you How do they learn more

349
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: about Congressional Sportsman's Foundation.

350
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 7: It's a little long, but it's just ww dot Congressional

351
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 7: Sportsman dot org and if you put Congressional Sportsmen on

352
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 7: a search engine, you'll probably find us. And again there's

353
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 7: an interactive map. We've got staff from coast to coast

354
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 7: and north the south that work the various states. And

355
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 7: you know, if you want to find out what's going

356
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 7: on in your states, so it's a great resource. You

357
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 7: want to find out who those elective officials are that

358
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 7: are in the various caucuses, sportsmen's caucuses, whether it's here

359
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 7: in the US Congress or in your state legislature. Again,

360
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 7: great resource to find out about it. But the processes

361
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 7: is interactive all the time, and you know, so I

362
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 7: would definitely encourage you to go beyond next Tuesday that

363
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 7: that is not the end all and be all, and

364
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 7: we have to stay engaged. And I will point out

365
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 7: one other thing that I mentioned in the article. You know,

366
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 7: it's a good thing that the candidates think it's important

367
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 7: to create sportsmen and women for Canada at X, Y,

368
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 7: and Z. The worst thing you can be in the

369
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 7: political arena is irrelevant. And so the more numbers we

370
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 7: could show that sportsmen and women come to the polls,

371
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 7: the more numbers and more times that they show up

372
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 7: in the state capitals or in Congress talking about stuff,

373
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 7: generating the letters, things like that. We have to make

374
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 7: sure that we're punching way above our weight class. And

375
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 7: again that's that's what CSF is here to do.

376
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 1: The heck, yeah, well we'll work with you on that

377
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: any day of the week. Jeff, thank you so much

378
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: for coming on the show. You're welcome to stick with us.

379
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 1: We're going to have a very spooky migration report.

380
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 7: Good thanks for having me. Greatly appreciate it.

381
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: All right, gang, what do we think of that team?

382
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 2: Very informative, every Yeah, it's obviously top of mind to

383
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: everybody at the moment. Can't shake it. Even in the woods.

384
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 2: I was somehow getting text and information about the exact

385
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,199
Speaker 2: upcoming election.

386
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 4: So go out and.

387
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 1: Vote exactly, buckle up. It's kickoff and then we got

388
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: long four quarters after that, so it's gonna be a

389
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: roller coaster, yes sir. All right, now over to the

390
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: migration report.

391
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 2: When you can sun food and the teram SAPs.

392
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 8: Then you suffers is the West?

393
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 5: Oh well, I love it.

394
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 4: Oh you're just waiting for the video now.

395
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: It says pre recorded migration report.

396
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 5: Oh, but we need to say.

397
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: The migration report is more Matt McCormick.

398
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 4: It gives a waterfowl hunting forecast for each flyway. Take

399
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 4: it away, Matt, I.

400
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: Think you guys.

401
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 9: I'm out McCormick with flying v and welcome to the

402
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 9: Meat Eater Migration Report for October thirty first, twenty twenty four.

403
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 9: I'm coming to you live from the ki Refuge here

404
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 9: in southwest Montana to bring you the latest on migration trends,

405
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 9: weather patterns, and what we can all expect to see

406
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 9: in the coming weeks as we move into November. First up,

407
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 9: we all have a new moon coming and that is

408
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 9: a good thing for all of us. We can all

409
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 9: expect to see more daylight action and when combined with

410
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 9: the forecasted north winds and cooler tempts, this is a

411
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 9: recipe for some of the best hunts of the season.

412
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 9: Everybody who's ever hunted in a north wind on a

413
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 9: cold front with a new moon can attest this recipe

414
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 9: is about as good as it gets, and in.

415
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 2: October it is very welcome.

416
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 9: So hunters across the country can expect to see some

417
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 9: better hunting ahead. Here in the packfly we've been you know,

418
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 9: we've already had our first push and our weather has

419
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,719
Speaker 9: been okay. It's been about you know, forty to fifty degrees,

420
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 9: a lot of sound, a lot of no wind. But

421
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 9: we have had a first first push, and we have

422
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 9: two cold fronts coming back to back down the pipe.

423
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 2: Right now.

424
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 9: They are forecasting that we're gonna have below average temperatures

425
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 9: with which I can feel it right now in my hands.

426
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 9: It's on its way, as well as heavy, heavy snowfall.

427
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 9: If this happens, we can all expect to see birds

428
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 9: pour out of Alberta and move into the staging areas

429
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 9: in the US. I think we got some really good

430
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 9: hunting ahead in the Pacific Flyway. Over in the Central Flyway,

431
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 9: you guys are gonna benefit from these cold fronts as well.

432
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 9: These fronts are gonna push specs, pintails, and this first

433
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 9: wave of Canada geese down through South Dakota into Kansas, Oklahoma.

434
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 9: I think you guys are gonna start to see new

435
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 9: birds showing up here within the next week or so.

436
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 9: It's looking really really good for you guys as well.

437
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 9: Big migration days coming. You guys have had some great ones,

438
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 9: You're about to have some more in the Mississippi Flyway.

439
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 9: They've had some unseasonably warm weather, so it slowed things

440
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 9: down a little bit in the north, but the reports

441
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 9: are saying that there's still some great teal hunting. The

442
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 9: diver hunting has been really good over in Wisconsin Minnesota,

443
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 9: and the goose hunting has been pretty good as well.

444
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 9: But everybody could use a few more birds, and I

445
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 9: think you guys are going to see that as these

446
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 9: birds pushed down out of Manitoba down in through the

447
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 9: Mississippi Flyway. I think everybody in Illinois, Missouri as we

448
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 9: get through the weekend, you guys are going to start

449
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 9: seeing a trickle of birds coming in as well. Finally,

450
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 9: in the Atlantic Flyway, you know, movement's been a slow uptick.

451
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 9: You guys have had pretty good, pretty good hunting over

452
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 9: the last few weeks, but we are getting reports of

453
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 9: new black ducks showing up in the Saint Lawrence region,

454
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 9: which is a good sign. It means the birds are

455
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 9: on their way. The rain that you guys have gotten,

456
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 9: the cooler temperature should have improved the hunting on the

457
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 9: coast as well. I think everybody in the New England

458
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 9: and mid Atlantic regions are going to start to experience

459
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 9: some really good hunting in these first few weeks of November,

460
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 9: as the cooler tempts come in and the ducks start

461
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 9: pushing in as well. That's it for this week's migration report.

462
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 9: Whether you're battling the elements out west or you're just

463
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 9: waiting on new birds in the Central Mississippi Flyway, the

464
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 9: coming cooler temps and these cold fronts show really promising

465
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 9: good hunting to be had here in the next few weeks.

466
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 9: Happy Halloween everybody, and good luck out there. Back to you, Spencer.

467
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, dang, Matt McCormick's crash.

468
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 2: That'll get you excited about some ducks.

469
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. I even learned that it's it's the hipway saying

470
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 1: Pacific Flyway is Packfly, pack Fly Yeah wow, yeah somebody.

471
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: That's a free brand name for somebody out there. Yeah,

472
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a quick break, not from what you're watching,

473
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 1: but you keep watching because Phil's gonna give us some

474
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: listener feedback on the fly, so to speak.

475
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 4: Phil. Hey, I'm trying to make adjustments to my mask

476
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 4: so it still looks cool, but I can see what

477
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 4: I'm doing.

478
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 5: Oh, oh, it looks great.

479
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 4: That's great.

480
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 2: You can't see through those glowing red eyeballs.

481
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 4: Apparently not. I also I felt like today would be

482
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 4: a good idea to try this effect that I have

483
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 4: on my board so I can hello. I don't know

484
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 4: if this echo is coming through on the stream, but

485
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 4: I hope it is or else that doesn't sound really lame,

486
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 4: I'm gonna turn it off on.

487
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 2: Wow, that's pretty great.

488
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 4: Okay, that was fun, Right.

489
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 5: The whole show like that?

490
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 4: Okay, I don't think so. I think it'd be really annoying. Uh,

491
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 4: let's see. Mogres asking Krinn, how far in advance do

492
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 4: you record the podcast before uploading them, said he was

493
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 4: listening to the new Trivia today and someone mentioned the

494
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 4: Monday morning mood, which made me wonder, thank you.

495
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 2: Hmmm.

496
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 5: It kind of depends. Sometimes we might record the week

497
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 5: before we drop an episode of the Meat Eater podcast.

498
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 5: I assume he's asking about that, and sometimes Trivia might

499
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 5: be the week before, and sometimes, just based on everyone's schedules,

500
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 5: we might be a couple weeks out. So it really

501
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 5: just depends week to week.

502
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd say it's very reliant on Steven Ronella's schedule.

503
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, indeed, that's.

504
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 4: The main thing I'm getting word that the echo did

505
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 4: not come through soused out. You know, I'm going to

506
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 4: try to workshop that during the next interview about that

507
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 4: fruit of the mycilium that's a great name. Asks how

508
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 4: much meat do I share with my hunting buddy. We

509
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 4: hunted a new state all of October and I finally

510
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 4: shot a blacktail. We packed it out and butchered it together.

511
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 4: He was a huge help.

512
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 2: Great question.

513
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean great, great question. I personally I would

514
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: offer them half. Yeah, yeah, I mean blacktail are small,

515
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: I get it. I would I would offer half.

516
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd say at least a shoulder a ham since

517
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 2: they packed out half of it. I mean, yeah, at

518
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: the minimum, the whole ham.

519
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's probably about right.

520
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,479
Speaker 1: Don't don't go cherry pick on your your soft cuts

521
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: and then then you're not going to have anybody to

522
00:28:58,840 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: help pack something out.

523
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 2: And then try and help your buddy get him a deer.

524
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and blacktail are small. Like if if that's the

525
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 1: way you want to play it next year, go hunt

526
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: by yourself.

527
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 5: Oh wait, so you and Sam helped me with my dear.

528
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 5: So should I be giving you guys half or should

529
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 5: I split between the two of you? Or should I

530
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 5: be giving you should should we split it three ways?

531
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: I just want to stop you right there. Okay, she's

532
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: trying to walk back a previous statement that she made.

533
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 4: We know she was a.

534
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 1: Little bit hysterical. She offered fifteen dinners at one of

535
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: the most expensive places in Bozeman, and now she's like,

536
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: oh wait.

537
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 5: No, that's worth more than half the deer. So no, no,

538
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 5: well we're going to stick to that cow. This is

539
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 5: an addition. So that generous heart, that one walking anything back.

540
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: Just saved us from you know, going home and cooking

541
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: dinner and relaxing and sitting in front.

542
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 4: Of the boob tube.

543
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 2: So I would have been boring.

544
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 4: Yep, yep. Jeremy asks, can you recommend an area for

545
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 4: an international hunter to come and do a US hunt?

546
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 4: Tips your ideas on best area, target species, etc. He's

547
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 4: looking three to five years in advance, which is very wow,

548
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 4: very responsible.

549
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 2: Well, good job looking ahead. That's sometimes how long it

550
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 2: takes to draw tags in Western States.

551
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Corey, I think you'd be a good

552
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: one to answer this, but I mean it's if you're

553
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: looking three to five years in advance, get on it now.

554
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: I'd apply in New Mexico, Montana, Idaho, Colorado.

555
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 2: Hmm, if you can, yep, that's a good point. Yeah,

556
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 2: big game out west or even white tail in the

557
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 2: Midwest be a lot easier. You could probably I would

558
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 2: imagine you'd want to come out for maybe a week,

559
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 2: two weeks a month, so you could probably hunt a

560
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: few states doing that if you play your cards right.

561
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's no ban on international folks hunting anywhere

562
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: in the US, so you're just seen as like a

563
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: non resident hunter, so that I mean that that's side

564
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: of it's pretty easy. If that's a worry for you.

565
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Star start accumulating it lading some points.

566
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 4: Tyler wants to shout out his eleven year old Jayden

567
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 4: on her first deer and buck this past weekend during

568
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 4: the youth hunt, and East Tennessee tagged a nice seven point.

569
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 4: Congrats Tyler and Jayden. Any good youth hunting stories from

570
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 4: the group. I know this is because because Corey, you

571
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 4: have a six year old, so he's not doing any hunting. No, man,

572
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 4: you don't have kids. Cal you also don't have kids,

573
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 4: but you've been on some youth hunts, right, Oh.

574
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: I've taken a lot of youth hunters over the years. Yeah,

575
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: I mean, my biggest story is the fact that you

576
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: have to see things from their level, right, So even

577
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: things as big as an elk. I'm like, yepre there.

578
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 1: He is right there, just stuffed out, and they're like,

579
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: I can't see him. And you're like, how in the

580
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: heck can you not see that giant six point bowl?

581
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: And then you drop to your knees and you get

582
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: on the level of an eleven year old and you're like, ah,

583
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,719
Speaker 1: there is no way you can see the elk from here,

584
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: short human.

585
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 2: I took my six year old turkey hunting with me

586
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 2: this year. It was the best, most memorable hunt I'll

587
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: ever had. We'd put some great stocks on some birds

588
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 2: and then ultimately ended up getting one. On the way out,

589
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: he was still strapped in his car seat. I said, buddy,

590
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 2: you stay here, dad, he's gonna go round the hill.

591
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 2: And he stuck his head out the window and he

592
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 2: could hear the shotgun go off, So he was there, yeah,

593
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 2: but still in the truck.

594
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 4: It was.

595
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 2: It was perfect. It was a lot of fun. I

596
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 2: can't wait to do it again.

597
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,959
Speaker 4: I probably know the answer to this because I edit

598
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 4: every one of your podcasts. But cal the Snort prefer

599
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 4: upland or waterfowl hunting. That's from Noah boy she loves.

600
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: I think peasants are very high on her list because they,

601
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: especially late season, they run a lot, they represent a

602
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: really serious challenge. I stick with upland hunting as long

603
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: as possible, just for that exercise. And but I mean

604
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: these retrievers, man, they come alive if you give them

605
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: a chance to just do straight retrieving. And I think

606
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: that she likes retrieving geese more than more than ducks.

607
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: There's something about a big bird hit in the ground

608
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: that she becomes a kind of a jerk to hunt with.

609
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: She needs more reprimanding when geese are flying than when

610
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: ducks are flying. And follow up Matt's asking, how is

611
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: Snort recovering? And for those who don't know what happened

612
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: with Snort?

613
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 4: Here, Oh yeah, here we go, Hey, s come here, come.

614
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 5: For all of you listeners, Snort is sitting on cow's

615
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 5: lap right now.

616
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: So she's got a little zipper on her chest here,

617
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: and she's recovered quite well. But she's about a third

618
00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: sealed up and she I'm thinking about a week and

619
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the zipp around her chest here will

620
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: be uh yeah, I don't know. Yeah, it's gonna be

621
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: real hard to see, but a lot of staples there,

622
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: and she's gonna be back to chasing the cocks around.

623
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 5: That was a slice on barbed wire, doesn't hunting.

624
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 1: Barbed wire cut? And Karen was actually right there. Yeah,

625
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: and it's you know, these dogs move so fast and

667
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: it is coming up here in the in the new year. Uh,

668
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 1: it's a great way to get together with a bunch

669
00:36:55,360 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: of upland bird hunters and get really educated on all

670
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 1: conservation things, the farm, build noxious weeds, habitat improvement, all

671
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,879
Speaker 1: sorts of different programs like the path program here, which

672
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: is a Pheasants and Quail Forever brainchild. Another private land,

673
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: public access avenue out there for folks and critical organization

674
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: out there. If you're not a member, you should be

675
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: Pheasants in Quail Forever. Bob, have you been listening in

676
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,399
Speaker 1: on the whole show, the.

677
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 10: Majority of it, some with the mask on, some with

678
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 10: it off, but I've listened to the majority.

679
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, you know you had Jeff cranon from.

680
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 6: The Congressional Sportsman, Thank.

681
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 1: You CSF, and Jeff was talking about how they're a

682
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: bipartisan organization and they work across the board with all

683
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: political affiliations, and I know Pheasants Quail Forever does too.

684
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: And you guys got some heat on that one recently

685
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:08,879
Speaker 1: because you always Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever. They host

686
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: a bunch of different Governor's hunts all around the state

687
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,720
Speaker 1: or help participate in set up as the conservation partner,

688
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,399
Speaker 1: and this year the spotlight was on you a little

689
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: bit more than usual.

690
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, we did take a little vitriol on social

691
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 10: media around the Minnesota Governor's Hunt Governor's pheasant Hunt. But

692
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 10: in fairness, I mean, we participated in the Minnesota Governor's

693
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 10: feesant Hunt since it was created in twenty eleven, regardless

694
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 10: of what party holds the office of governor. And that's

695
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 10: true of South Dakota, which we just participated in last weekend,

696
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 10: coming up in Iowa and coming up in Kansas. We've

697
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 10: got four states. Two were held by Republican governors, two

698
00:38:56,640 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 10: are held by Democratic governors, and we participate in all

699
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 10: of them, particularly our local volunteers. And Jeff, Jeff was

700
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 10: talking about having a seat at the table and being relevant,

701
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 10: and I'd echo that, you know, we're we we want

702
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 10: to be at the table. Otherwise, you know the phrase,

703
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 10: if you're not at the table, you're on the menu.

704
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 10: And we need to be at those I mean, it's

705
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:24,360
Speaker 10: it's a governor's pheasant hunt for a sitting governor, for

706
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 10: an opportunity for us to talk about habitat and conservation.

707
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 10: So yeah, we uh, we participate them in them whenever

708
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 10: we get a chance.

709
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: And uh, well, tim Walls there. He didn't get any

710
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 1: cocks on opening day. Are the numbers down in Minnesota?

711
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 11: Uh?

712
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the things are down a little bit.

713
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:47,399
Speaker 10: This year in Minnesota, we we had almost a non

714
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 10: existent winter, which set us up to have, you know,

715
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 10: a hockey stick level. There's my Minnesota reference hockey stick

716
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 10: level increase.

717
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,840
Speaker 6: I had bird numbers because.

718
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 10: The winter was so mild, and we had a tremendous

719
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 10: adult carryover. Hens came into spring nesting season really strong.

720
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 10: Unfortunately early June at the time that's the peak of

721
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 10: the hatch. We got super heavy rains across southern Minnesota

722
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 10: and northern Iowa, parts of eastern South Dakota. And those rains,

723
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 10: what we think happened is they gully washed out nests

724
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 10: and a pheasants you know, you'll you'll sometimes here pheasants

725
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 10: pulled off a second hatch. Well that's not true. Pheasants

726
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 10: will renest if they lose a nest. You know, say

727
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 10: that a gully washes out a nest, or a raccoon

728
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 10: comes by and eats a nest, so a hand will

729
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 10: lay a new nest as long as none of them

730
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,240
Speaker 10: none of those eggs have hatched. But on an average

731
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 10: first nest attempt, they start eleven to thirteen eggs. As

732
00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 10: they go down for a second attempt, the egg numbers

733
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,880
Speaker 10: go down, so they may lay seven to nine eggs.

734
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 10: A third attempt, they'll try again, maybe it'll be an

735
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 10: average of five eggs. So as long as the eggs

736
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 10: aren't hatched or hatched in a chick happens, they will

737
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 10: attempt to renest. But there's no such thing in pheasant

738
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 10: biology as a second nest. So long winded answer that

739
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 10: rain and June couldn't have come at a worst time

740
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 10: probably led to a lot more renest attempts, So the

741
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 10: reproduction numbers of new birds coming into the population ultimately

742
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 10: in parts of Minnesota, Iowa, parts of South Dakota are

743
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 10: down a little bit, but generally speaking, North Dakota South

744
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 10: Dakota are actually pretty strong numbers. Nebraska is on an

745
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 10: uprise and then Kansas is slow uprise. They've been suffering

746
00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 10: drought for a number of years, so they're little upticking cares,

747
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 10: but it's a little bit slower than st North Dakota

748
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 10: and South Dakota awesome.

749
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: And then what about are quail hunters, what can they

750
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: expect this year or any any good reports.

751
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 10: Yeah, mixed bag, depending on what species and what states

752
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 10: we're talking about.

753
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 6: I'll point to Arizona. You know, you got three species

754
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 6: of quail.

755
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 10: In Arizona, the manazuma or merns quail that live in

756
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 10: the Sky Islands. Rains look to have come at the

757
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 10: right time for those birds, so that should be good.

758
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,919
Speaker 10: Same thing with the desert birds. Gambles and scalies look

759
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 10: pretty good in Arizona. If you're you've never taken a

760
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 10: spring break to the desert, this might be your year.

761
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 6: Texas.

762
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 10: Things around the ariz In Texas, it's it's not going

763
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:51,320
Speaker 10: to be like twenty fourteen when you know, Texas quail

764
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 10: hunters were flushing, you know, thirty covees a day. But

765
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 10: things around the improve in Texas, and then Nebraska mirrors.

766
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 10: Pheasant significantly better in Nebraska, Kansas a little bit brighter

767
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 10: in Kansas. Uh, same thing in Oklahoma, a little bit

768
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 10: better for bob whites than it has in the past.

769
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 10: And then the Southeast, those Hurricanans. You know, it makes

770
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 10: things a little bit challenging for both the birds and

771
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 10: the hunters. Not you know, it doesn't wipe out quail numbers,

772
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 10: but it's definitely going to put a little bit of

773
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 10: a challenge for bird numbers and for hunting.

774
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe even just displaces populations if they were able

775
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: to move a little bit there.

776
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 10: So yeah, yeah, and obviously the human loss is paramount,

777
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 10: so well. Wishes to everybody in the southeast.

778
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, darn darn right, Bob, What what are you looking

779
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: forward to next?

780
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 7: I'm going north.

781
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 10: I'm going to rough grouse in woodcock hunting this weekend.

782
00:43:55,560 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 10: Woodcock had been slow to arrive in the migrations and

783
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 10: just so darn warm. I've had to pivot a bunch

784
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 10: of prairie grouse trips to the north Woods because it's

785
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 10: been nineties and upper eighties across much of the you know,

786
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 10: South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana prairie is when I had

787
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 10: tended to be chasing sharpie's, so but I haven't been

788
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 10: finding woodcock. I think, you know, we're getting some snow

789
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 10: today in Minnesota, which is the first. I don't think

790
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 10: it's gonna be the Halloween snowstorm of nineteen ninety one,

791
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 10: but we're getting a little bit of snow in Minnesota,

792
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 10: So I think some woodcock are gonna come down and

793
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 10: the leaves are largely off the trees now, so you

794
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 10: get a little bit better opportunity at rough grouse, and

795
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 10: it's our last shot before deer hunters take to the woods.

796
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 10: So I think I'm gonna go north and chase grouse

797
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 10: and woodcock this weekend.

798
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:52,759

808
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 10: gave us the friends and family discount because they believe

809
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 10: in our organization and conservation, and jumped in on this

810
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 10: crazy idea to do our first ever concert for conservation

811
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,280
Speaker 10: in Sioux Falls last year, and it was a tremendous success.

Speaker 12: Hello everybody, Mine Floyd and I'm coming at.

860
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 1: You from Wisconsin.

861
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,760
Speaker 12: It's a beautiful night and I'm sitting by another beautiful

862
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 12: campfire and this week's Chettikit question comes to us from

863
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,280
Speaker 12: somebody who does not want to be named. He writes,

864
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 12: I have a good friend with two young boys who

865
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 12: recently passed hunter's Education. The younger one, aged nine, is

866
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 12: eager to hunt turkeys and his mom, my friend is

867
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 12: interested too, though she is unsure if she wants to

868
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,240
Speaker 12: pull the trigger herself. I offered to take them turkey hunting.

869
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 12: We practiced with my four to ten and went over

870
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 12: safety the day before the hunt. We tried to get

871
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 12: the boy's license, but his dad, her ex husband, refused

872
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 12: to share his hunter's education infoma. He said, since he

873
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 12: put them through the hunter's education course, he wanted to

874
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 12: be the one to take him turkey hunting first. The

875
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 12: problem is he doesn't turkey hunt and the season had

876
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 12: been open for a month. He also said their mom

877
00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 12: shouldn't be involved in hunting because she doesn't hunt herself,

878
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,720
Speaker 12: and no one but him should hunt with the boys.

879
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 12: What do you think about this situation. I think it's

880
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 12: a very tricky situation, is my first thought. I think

881
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 12: this ultimately comes down to this is easy for me

882
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 12: the kids. You have to think about the kids, and

883
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 12: you have to get them out hunting. I understand why

884
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 12: the ex husband wants to take his boys out first,

885
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 12: but ultimately he has to do it. So you guys

886
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 12: need to figure that out as parents. Talk to the dad,

887
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 12: talk to the mom, and get those boys out hunting,

888
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 12: because that's ultimately what matters. And that's all I have

889
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 12: to say.

890
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 2: He's right, think of the kids. The children argue with

891
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 2: Chad on that one.

892
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck, Okay, Yeah, yeah, Phil, you want to

893
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 1: weigh in on that.

894
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 4: You know what, I wasn't listening at all because I

895
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 4: was prepping the next segment.

896
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:40,719
Speaker 1: Cow uh yeah, darn darn right. Yeah, it's a it's

897
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: bummer when when kids get kind of caught in the

898
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: in the crosshairs of adult being adult issues. So you'll

899
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 1: get it figured out, little little time, a little talking

900
00:50:55,840 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 1: communication communication. Yes, we're gonna jump over now that we're

901
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: putting the kids to bed, because it's that's a transition.

902
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:11,240
Speaker 5: As folks complained last time, So close your ears children.

903
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,760
Speaker 1: Talk about sex with your host Corrine Schneider.

904
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 4: Y'll want to talk about geese, want to talk about mix,

905
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 4: We want to talk about justice on the Falcon bikes

906
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 4: and m Clone we for black Cap Chico tea.

907
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,799
Speaker 1: I like to hear Steed say a word to come

908
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: to tea because occasionally you'll want to talk about sex.

909
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:36,280
Speaker 2: Oh, it's groovy.

910
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 5: The tune is like very g rated get.

911
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,760
Speaker 2: Misrepresents not for everybody.

912
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,720
Speaker 5: Uh, let's talk about sex. Is where I enlighten everyone

913
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 5: on animal kingdom mating behaviors, and this week we're talking

914
00:51:51,920 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 5: about the North American porcupine ah mood. The mating is

915
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 5: rare for the North American porcupine, the second largest rodent

916
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,240
Speaker 5: in North America, is known for its body armor of

917
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 5: thirty thousand quills. Females are basically celibate and so sexually

918
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 5: inactive that the vagina is closed with a membrane. In

919
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:25,800
Speaker 5: the prime of September, the membrane dissolves and females become

920
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 5: receptive to mating. However, they are only fertile for an

921
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 5: eight to twelve hour period each year. Eight to twelve

922
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 5: hours each year only before the female porcupine comes into estrus,

923
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 5: she secretes a fragrant vaginal mucus. The scent, combined with

924
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 5: musky urine, brings all the boys to the yard. Unsurprisingly,

925
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,720
Speaker 5: they fight over her with their sharp incize or teeth.

926
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,439
Speaker 5: And quills, and some males will even battle to the death.

927
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 5: The lucky, victorious male, having chased all the other suitors away,

928
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:13,879
Speaker 5: has earned the right to approach the female porcupine. He

929
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:18,319
Speaker 5: attempts to court her, sometimes singing, doing an odd kind

930
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 5: of dance, or simply walking over to her on his

931
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:25,240
Speaker 5: hind legs and releasing a jet stream of europe ooh

932
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:29,919
Speaker 5: of Europe. No no, no, who start again, walking over

933
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 5: to her on his hind legs and releasing a jet

934
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:36,720
Speaker 5: stream of urine onto her from up to six feet away.

935
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,879
Speaker 5: If she is not ready, she might scream at him,

936
00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 5: try to bite him, or simply run away. If the

937
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 5: male's pheromones are hard to resist, she'll allow him to

938
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:53,439
Speaker 5: mate her, relaxing her spine and lifting her tail all

939
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 5: the way up so that the unquilled underside acts as

940
00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 5: a cushion and the male doesn't get impaled. Once impregnated,

941
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 5: gestation lasts for about seven months, and in May, the

942
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 5: female will give birth to a single newborn porcupine called

943
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 5: adorably a porcupt That's the end of today's.

944
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 1: Lesson single single birth, Yes, single birth wild wild so

945
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: uh old timers will tell you you don't kill porcupines

946
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 1: because you can kill them with a stick. So when

947
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 1: winter is coming and you don't know how severe it's

948
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,879
Speaker 1: going to be, you want to, you know, have that

949
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 1: easy food for when times are real hard around, so

950
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: you don't just kill porcupines willy nilly. And that would

951
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 1: definitely dovetail nicely with the fact that they have their

952
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:57,799
Speaker 1: low fecundity species. If they're only dropping one young and

953
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,799
Speaker 1: they have an eight to twelve hour or window once

954
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 1: a year.

955
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 2: Tight window, that's incredible. I had no idea. Yes, yeah,

956
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:07,360
Speaker 2: fascinating animal.

957
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Plus the actual like biological physical barrier. Is there

958
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: a word for that in the animal kingdom like other animals.

959
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 5: That that's a good question. I will have to do

960
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 5: some research.

961
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, very cool, Thank.

962
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 4: You, Karen.

963
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, you bet, guys.

964
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 4: And before we move on to the next segment, last

965
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:31,799
Speaker 4: call for Q and A at the end of the show,

966
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,719

970
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:46,239

Speaker 1: honestly that that's your first experience with something like that.

996
00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 3: I'll plead the fifth.

997
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 8: So also, I am disappointed, given everybody's got costumes on.

998
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,200
Speaker 8: I started looking through the closet this morning and the

999
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 8: best I could come up with was my mom's teacher sweater.

1000
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 3: From the early nine.

1001
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 5: Amazing it.

1002
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 3: Well, it's a summer motif.

1003
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, and I just thought it's not really even

1004
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,240
Speaker 13: a character and I don't know, this thing could go

1005
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,080
Speaker 13: pretty south when you start off with a teacher sweater,

1006
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 13: so I.

1007
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 3: Opted not to wear it. But y'all all look great.

1008
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:48,040
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, thanks for reed.

1013
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 5: to interrupt and just ask you for a little bit

1014
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 5: of the backstory of how Reid's Piano News got started

1015
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,840
Speaker 5: because folks reach us, reach out to us about him.

1016
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: A while back the show, I was gonna do it

1017
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 1: on the back end, but you know what, she's feeling

1018
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 1: spicy from her segment, A little costume and.

1019
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 5: Very clever guy.

1020
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, very creative fellow. You are there, Read what what

1021
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,960
Speaker 1: what brought you to this point in time?

1022
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 7: Yeah?

1023
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 8: Well, I think I've I've always sort of had the

1024
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 8: musical itch. After I went to Auburn and med and

1025
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 8: a bunch of buddies moved back to Birmingham and started

1026
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 8: a a cover band for like three or four years,

1027
00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 8: and then we did everything from from you know, Nelly

1028
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 8: to call Me Maybe to Joe Diffy. It was kind

1029
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 8: of all over and just occasionally playing at bars in Birmingham.

1030
00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 3: And then you know how how it goes.

1031
00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 8: Everybody has kids and uh, that takes priority.

1032
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 3: That's a that's a good thing.

1033
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 8: But the the music, you know, playing out sort of

1034
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 8: dropped off, but the the itch sort of remained. And uh,

1035
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:10,960
Speaker 8: the first time I made a video like what's on

1036
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,520
Speaker 8: the Instagram page? I think it was, we had a

1037
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 8: guys trip lined up to go down to Orange Beach,

1038
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 8: and uh, you.

1039
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 3: Know they're just you don't get a guy.

1040
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 8: It's it's effort to get a guys trip, you know,

1041
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 8: teed up and together everybody can go and you finally

1042
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 8: we had it, and the exact day we were supposed

1043
00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 8: to get down there, Hurricane Sally was coming right up

1044
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 8: the Alabama Gulf coast and we needed to pivot, uh,

1045
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 8: and pulled the old my uncle's got a lake house

1046
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:41,080
Speaker 8: somewhere in Alabama, and I.

1047
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 3: Pulled the old, hey uncle, can we use your lake house? Move?

1048
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 8: And it seemed like it took him three days to

1049
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 8: get back to us, and we're all ancient. You know,

1050
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,000
Speaker 8: you don't want to punt the guys trip if you

1051
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:55,160
Speaker 8: if you can afford it, and uh he uh finally

1052
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 8: texted back. He's like, yeah, no problem, you'll you'll go

1053
00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 8: have a good time. And I wrote I consider it

1054
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 8: a masterpiece. It's called We're going to the Lake, and

1055
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 8: that's all the lyrics, and it's We're going to the

1056
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:11,000
Speaker 8: Lake about twenty times in a row. And generally my

1057
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,400
Speaker 8: friends will tell me if, you know, if I'm doing

1058
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:16,000
Speaker 8: something just ridiculously dumb, or if it's a bad idea,

1059
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 8: and they seem to kind of like it, so, you know,

1060
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 8: I kind of got the idea, like, well, maybe I

1061
01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 8: wonder what happened. I think I found a story about

1062
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,920
Speaker 8: this bear and a Chinese zoo that people couldn't figure

1063
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 8: out if he was a zoo keeper dressed up in

1064
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 8: a bear's uniform or if it actually was a zoo.

1065
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 3: It's it is very ambiguous.

1066
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:40,040
Speaker 8: It looks a little bit like both, and I'm not

1067
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:43,760
Speaker 8: still certain whether whether it's a person or a bear.

1068
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 8: But wrote a song about that, and they, you know,

1069
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,800
Speaker 8: got some encouragement, and then you know, it's kind of.

1070
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 3: Taken off since then, so you quit quit the day job.

1071
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:01,480
Speaker 1: Totally alright, and it's all piano new right.

1072
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, we're I've got this is I'm doing this

1073
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 3: for my third house.

1074
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:09,320
Speaker 8: Oh I love it, so yeah, no, it's it's what's

1075
01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 8: going awesome.

1076
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 1: You got a knack man, you definitely definitely do. Unfortunately,

1077
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 1: you're really setting yourself up for a high standard today

1078
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:22,000
Speaker 1: now that we got the backstory ahead of time. Yes, okay, well, uh,

1079
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 1: you have piano news for us today, correct.

1080
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 8: I do, And I look, I hate, especially this close

1081
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:31,400
Speaker 8: to election. I hate to come on here and be

1082
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 8: wildly politically divisive.

1083
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 1: But you know, I just that's why.

1084
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, you got to go where the news takes you.

1085
01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 8: And as of late, we found that, uh, there's a

1086
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 8: dog that has scaled the Great Pyramid of Giza and

1087
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 8: it has taken northern Africa by storm. And uh it's uh,

1088
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 8: you know, it's heavy, but I think that people need

1150
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:41,760
Speaker 1: few questions first before we do that, though. I want to,

1151
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:44,520
Speaker 1: I just want to. I was going through an old picture.

1152
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,760
Speaker 1: I was telling Krin and the guys about it earlier

1153
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:51,640
Speaker 1: five years ago. Today we had our first costume contest

1154
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: here at Meat Eater. I just wanted to can I

1155
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:55,920
Speaker 1: bring this in here?

1156
01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:56,360
Speaker 7: There?

1157
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 4: We are?

1158
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:57,640
Speaker 2: Wow?

1159
01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 4: Okay, so that's like pretty much the entire company right there.

1160
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 4: But then I wanted to just point out some of

1161
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 4: the people who are here still here today. I was

1162
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:10,000
Speaker 4: Doc Klala Day, the white Claw Cowboy. I still have

1163
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:11,800
Speaker 4: not topped this. It was a lot of work and

1164
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,360
Speaker 4: I don't think I'll do anything like it again. And

1165
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:19,640
Speaker 4: then we've got Spencer was Amish and Giannis was a cow.

1166
01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:24,959
Speaker 5: And then we have same costume guys in the same costume.

1167
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:28,400
Speaker 4: Looking thrilled to be there. And that's Kylie with the

1168
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 4: with the sushi they were they came as an Asian

1169
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 4: food pair. Yes, And then that's not what I meant

1170
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:35,920
Speaker 4: to do. And we've got Steve as that insurance guy

1171
01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,680
Speaker 4: who keeps getting hurt. I think he's got a name.

1172
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 1: Or the original version. Oh yeah.

1173
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 4: And then Cal was was our good friend Jeffrey, right,

1174
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:51,120
Speaker 4: I think yep, yeah, Carls Jeffrey Carls, Carl's character creation

1175
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 4: Mayhem Mayhem. That's right.

1176
01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 5: Wait was Cal not in that photo?

1177
01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:56,080
Speaker 4: That was Cal?

1178
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:57,240
Speaker 7: That was.

1179
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 1: At the time everybody was confusing us. So that's what yeah, anyway, Yeah.

1180
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 4: All right, let's move on to the questions here we've got.

1181
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:11,360
Speaker 4: Let's see, this is kind of a broad question that

1182
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:15,160
Speaker 4: maybe you can offer some first steps here. Brady's wondering

1183
01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:18,720
Speaker 4: how a man plans an Alaskan caribou archery hunt for

1184
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:20,840
Speaker 4: himself and his dad within a five year period. I

1185
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 4: don't know if there's anything this far out he should

1186
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:26,920
Speaker 4: start prepping forward or training for signing documents for.

1187
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,880
Speaker 1: Cal You ever had a caribou. I've never had a caribou.

1188
01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 2: No, yeah, same, No.

1189
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's a bunch of ways to go

1190
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 1: about this. There's a lot of good like do it

1191
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,920
Speaker 1: yourself forums out there where you could connect with people

1192
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:47,960
Speaker 1: and just learn about like some the your your fly

1193
01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:51,920
Speaker 1: in operators are going to be the ones that you

1194
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:53,959
Speaker 1: need to figure out. And then those folks are gonna

1195
01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:59,520
Speaker 1: have tabs on where those caribou herds are consistently coming

1196
01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 1: through and what numbers right, because obviously you want to

1197
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,600
Speaker 1: get there into a spot where you're going to see

1198
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 1: some stuff. If if you want to go to the

1199
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,800
Speaker 1: fly in route, you can go off the Alaskan Highway

1200
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:14,440
Speaker 1: as well, and that's archery only within the that two

1201
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,920
Speaker 1: mile corridor on both sides of the highway, and that's

1202
01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:20,760
Speaker 1: a big road trip and that'd be super cool too,

1203
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: But you're not necessarily going to be there picking out trophies, right,

1204
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 1: Like the trip is going to be the trophy, no

1205
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,680
Speaker 1: matter what. But if you go in with with one

1206
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,479
Speaker 1: of the fly in operators, you're going to see way

1207
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:35,960
Speaker 1: more numbers and be able to, you know, just do

1208
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:39,240
Speaker 1: some some judging if you hit it right. So like

1209
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 1: going on now, old Randy Newberg's forum, Hunt Talk is

1210
01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 1: a great place. Rockslide is still a great place to

1211
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:54,439
Speaker 1: get a good do it yourself information. And yeah, it's

1212
01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:58,280
Speaker 1: just gonna take time doing some research and find some

1213
01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:02,960
Speaker 1: finding some people who are flying and you can reference

1214
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:04,759
Speaker 1: as straight shooters.

1215
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:10,080
Speaker 4: Awesome, that sound good. M hmm, all right, this would

1216
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:11,560
Speaker 4: be a good question for Randall's since he's got some

1217
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:13,679
Speaker 4: first hand experience. But callen ser you've guys have to say.

1218
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 4: Stephanie says, I'd like to work in conservation. Any recommendations.

1219
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 4: I'm thirteen in Idaho. She's wondering about TRCP fishing game

1220
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:23,439
Speaker 4: or pheasants forever.

1221
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:31,519
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all awesome, awesome things to think about. Everybody

1222
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:35,200
Speaker 1: has a program to get folks out as volunteers. Starting

1223
01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 1: as a volunteers a great way of getting to know

1224
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 1: those communities and expanding your own community. And then you know,

1225
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 1: you can talk about doing the school route, but seeing

1226
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:52,800
Speaker 1: as you're thirteen, you could probably start even applying for

1227
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 1: some like wildlife tech internships through IDFG, Idaho Fishing Game.

1228
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:05,559
Speaker 1: There's some great, great phenomenal people at IDFG, at all

1229
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:09,800
Speaker 1: these organizations really, so we can follow up with you

1230
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,280
Speaker 1: on that. I'm sure we got some listeners that probably

1231
01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 1: have more of a direct way to go, but look

1232
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:18,240
Speaker 1: for volunteer opportunities and just try some out. There'll be

1233
01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:19,599
Speaker 1: a bunch coming up here in the spring.

1234
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,720
Speaker 2: We love that question though, Stephanie, the future looks bright.

1235
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 1: Also come out for Brush for Bucks. We're gonna plant

1236
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:33,160
Speaker 1: sagebrush seedlings with Idaho Fish and Game and the Hush

1237
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,640
Speaker 1: Crew and First Light as we do every year. Now,

1238
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 1: it's a great program. We're all out there volunteering and

1239
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:44,799
Speaker 1: IDFG as well as I think we have some TRCP

1240
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:48,320
Speaker 1: folks out there, regional folks and BHA folks out there,

1241
01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,800
Speaker 1: so good, good opportunity to come out do some work

1242
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 1: that benefits wildlife directly, and you'll get to know some

1243
01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:57,759
Speaker 1: peers in that community.

1244
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:02,120
Speaker 4: This is a similar similar vein here Jonathan's asking if

1245
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:04,400
Speaker 4: the Meat Eater crew wants a college intern. Jonathan, we

1246
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 4: usually have one or two interns floating around the office

1247
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:09,519
Speaker 4: these days, and we post them on our website. If

1248
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:11,400
Speaker 4: you go to the meat Eater dot com and scroll

1249
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 4: all the way down until you find a career's button,

1250
01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:19,080
Speaker 4: we will be occasionally hire interns, so keep an eye

1251
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:20,479
Speaker 4: open there. I think we also post them on like

1252
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:26,600
Speaker 4: job sites and stuff too. So Cal thoughts on the

1253
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 4: recent changes to Idaho's bear seasons with regards to GRIZ

1254
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 4: and the new rules. I don't know if you're if

1255
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:33,880
Speaker 4: you know about this, I'm kind of putting you on

1256
01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:34,439
Speaker 4: the spot here.

1257
01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:40,320
Speaker 1: Oh U, Matt. We worked for years to try to

1258
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:46,120
Speaker 1: get uh where he had to take the meat out

1259
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,240
Speaker 1: of the field in Idaho, and hopefully that happened. I'm

1260
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:51,599
Speaker 1: not up to up to snuff on the regulation change though,

1261
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,600
Speaker 1: so I'm sorry, but I will do my research and

1262
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 1: we'll cover it in Cal's wee can review asap, which

1263
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 1: I've just reminded.

1264
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 4: Me that I need to get that to fill today. Yeah,

1265
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:03,360
Speaker 4: I got to edit it tomorrow.

01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:04,560
Speaker 7: Thank you.

1267
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:10,519
Speaker 4: Oh let's see here, Cal, Would you ever be interested

1268
01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 4: in pheasant hunting with a falconer? Is that something then

1269
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 4: you've done or would want to do? It's from Josh.

1270
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:20,640
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, any sort of hunting I'm always interested in.

1271
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:24,040
Speaker 1: I have been out with some falconers before they were

1272
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:30,240
Speaker 1: flying peregrins and it was incredibly incredibly cool, incredibly cool.

1273
01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:36,599
Speaker 1: I also just straightforward. You people are nuts. The level

1274
01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 1: of care those birds take. It's like it's one of

1275
01:12:40,080 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 1: the few hunting animals where I've been like, oh, that's

1276
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 1: neat for other people.

1277
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:46,439
Speaker 4: And not me versus I want one.

1278
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh man, They're incredible, absolutely incredible. But that's a

1279
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:55,280
Speaker 1: very that's a very adult game that I'm not not

1280
01:12:55,400 --> 01:12:56,040
Speaker 1: quite there yet.

1281
01:12:56,320 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 2: Very dedicated, yes, very dedicated.

1282
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:01,880
Speaker 4: Elane as during Cheddikut Chet ever works because he's always

1283
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:06,080
Speaker 4: just sitting by a fire, Layne. When when Chet moved

1284
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:08,000
Speaker 4: back to Wisconsin, we said he could keep working for us,

1285
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 4: but he has to just live outside near a burning

1286
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:20,599
Speaker 4: fire at all times, and he agreed. Spot let's see here,

1287
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:22,679
Speaker 4: I had one. Oh yeah, someone asked about one minute

1288
01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:24,559
Speaker 4: fishing because we didn't do it today for the first time.

1289
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,760
Speaker 4: It's not going anywhere, guys, it's coming back. We just

1290
01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 4: I ordered some new equipment because we've got like a

1291
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:32,639
Speaker 4: little cell phone dead zone back at our usual pond,

1292
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:35,280
Speaker 4: and so I wanted it to look good instead of

1293
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:39,920
Speaker 4: look bad. That's what I strive for usually. Keep that's right.

1294
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,639
Speaker 4: And on that note, Uh, that's all I got for questions.

01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:07,640
