To kick off the first episode of Season 3, host John Livingston sits down with CPW Wildlife Damage Specialist Max Morton, who assisted the agency in standing up the range rider program in 2025.Range riders are eyes and ears on the landscape, collecting important information for livestock producers, wildlife managers, and biologists alike.

CPW opened the application process to as many as 24 range riders for the 2026 season.Morton, who discusses his past experience as a range rider in Arizona and New Mexico, details what range riding is, how it is most effective and why it was important for CPW to implement the program.

Pac Nation picked up the phones and packed the lines on this one. From a wild developmental B-team league concept to a Bears conspiracy theory for the ages, the After Dark crew had a lot to say about the Packers' offseason — and Ryan wasn't holding back either. A Ron from Eau Claire floats the idea of NFL teams fielding a spring practice squad league, and Ryan actually loves it — at least as a thought experiment. Same helmets, same loyalty, real development. The logistics are a nightmare, but the dream is beautiful. Beer Cheese Benny makes the case for drafting a running back while Ryan pumps the brakes — Judarian Price is the only realistic option in range, and if he's gone, the math just doesn't work. TJ from Alabama delivers a measured free agency report card: Hargrave and Franklin solid, Jonathan Gannon warmer than expected, and a definitive verdict on why LaGeria Sneed isn't the answer at corner. Randy from Minnesota drops the conspiracy of the year — is Ryan Poles secretly on the Packers' payroll? — and gives Big Sal his flowers for the Ben Johnson rant.
