He's a member of the Texas For Mountain Lions Coalition that recently submitted a petition to Texas Parks and Wildlife around mountain lions in Texas. As the filmmaker behind ‘Deep In The Heart', he tackles mountain lions - specifically trapping as the mechanism for declining mountain lion populations. In this ‘can't miss' conversation, Robbie asks him about anecdotal evidence, his thoughts about moving forward, and if he's really as anti-hunting and anti-trapping as the rhetoric says he is.

"Those vestiges of colonialism when empire was present in a particular context, when it left, those forms of knowledge still exist and they're still informing how you make decisions and how you move with one another and we can ask those questions of the Lutheran Church." - Hierald "I think the questions we were asking around, who benefits from this kind of interpretation, and how does someone's history shape their story? Those are questions I want people to bring back to their communities." - Ben Hierald Osorto has a passion for stories hidden out of sight, which drives him to work collaboratively and creatively to bring those stories to light. He comes to Holden from Ithaca College, nurturing belonging and meaning-making as Director of Religious and Spiritual Life and Executive Director for Student Equity and Belonging. Assigned to the DC Metro Synod, he will soon be the newest rostered leader in the ELCA. Three words that describe Hierald? Intuitive, insightful innovator. Ben Masters is a lover of stories and sacred song, and a pastor among those complicated, covenant people called Presbyterians. He comes to Holden with greetings from the farmers, wine-makers, and librarians beside beautiful Seneca Lake. He started baking sourdough bread long before lockdown, but the perfect pie crust still eludes him. Three words that describe Ben? Hopeful, humming homilist.

They set out to document the borderlands and explore the potential impacts of a border wall on the natural environment, but as the wilderness gives way to the more populated and heavily trafficked Lower Rio Grande Valley, they come face-to-face with the human side of the immigration debate and enter uncharted emotional waters. Ben Masters is best known for his UNBRANDED, a feature documentary on Netflix, in which he and three friends adopted 16 wild mustangs, trained them, and rode 3,000 miles from Mexico to Canada to inspire wild horse adoptions. Director Ben Masters join us to talk about the spectacular natural beauty of the Rio Grande Valley, the people who live along the Mexico - American border and the on-the-ground reality of a border wall.

Charles Post might look like a walking contradiction. Dig a bit deeper and you'll find he's far from it. Born and raised in northern California, Charles earned a B.S. and M.S. in ecology from U.C. Berkeley, serves as a conservation advisor for Sitka and editor of Modern Huntsman. He's a Montana based filmmaker with a penchant for wildlife conservation stories that challenge the norms of perception. Whether it's Sky Migrations, a film Charles co-directed and is featured in, which shines a light on the conservation of raptors across two hemispheres, or a pair of upcoming films he's co-directing with Ben Masters: one that shines a light on bighorn sheep conservation in West Texas, and another that exposes the ecological impacts of wild horses on public land. His approach stands out because he tells conservation stories through a lens free from the strings of politics or blind emotion. His social media account has become a forum for thoughtful conversations around wildlife, ecology and hunting. With his first season bowhunting public land ending with the harvest of a nice bull, Charles has waded further into the conversation, something we explore in this episode. Enjoy.

Charles Post is an academically trained ecologist with a gift for communicating complex and sometimes emotionally charged issues in a thoughtful manner to diverse audiences. Whether he’s discussing the intricacies of ranch management, the ecological implications of ethical hunting, or controversies surrounding the BLM’s wild mustang program, Charles has honed his ability to consider all sides of issues, then educate the public in a style that is positive, comprehensive, and intellectually honest. His academic credentials, combined with his photography, writing, filmmaking, and popular social media channels have made Charles a rising star in the world of conservation. • Born and raised in northern California, Charles has enjoyed a deep connection with Western landscapes for as long as he can remember. He grew up hunting, fishing, and exploring the seascapes and mountain ranges of the West Coast, then earned both a Bachelors and Masters in ecology from UC Berkeley. After considering pursuing a PhD followed by a career in academia, Charles changed course and pursued a less traditional track that melded his two passions of science and storytelling. Since then, he has settled in Bozeman, Montana where he works on a wide range of projects that all tie back into conservation and stewardship in the American West. • Charles and I talked for well over an hour, and could’ve easily continued for several more. We discuss his recent work for Filson covering Ranchlands, a progressive, forward-thinking ranching operation in southern Colorado. We also chat about the ecological importance of ranching for Western landscapes and the progress that Charles has made trying to change some of the unfounded negative impressions of ranching and livestock. We talk about his recent elk hunt, and how that adventure was one of the richest, most meaningful experiences of his life. Charles speaks fondly about his relationship with Ben Masters, who helped him break into the filmmaking world. It also turns out that we have a shared love of the American Dipper (which is a bird, for those of you out of the loop), and we nerd out on that subject for a few minutes. As usual, we discuss favorite books, films, and the best advice he’s ever received. • If you’re a long-time listener, you will love this episode… and if you’re brand new, I hope you will, too!

Ben Masters (on the gray horse) riding the trail for the film, book and multi-content feature Unbranded.  Note from Kate: Ben Masters is an enigma. In 2010, as a college student, he and two friends took a multi-month pack trip, and Western Horseman and I did an article about that trip. When Ben came to us with a hair-brained idea for a 5-month, more than 3,000-mile border-to-border pack trip that would be filmed with video and photos for a documentary, we jumped in to work with him again. The result was an award-winning film called "Unbranded." Today, Ben runs Fin & Fur Productions, focusing on wildlife and storytelling. This 28-year-old has been published in National Geographic and in Western Horseman. Ben created his own career and is forging a new freelance career, blending his loves the outdoors and storytelling.   Show Notes: Ben's job and how it fits into his lifestyle: Ben's job is ever-changing. He is a writer—magazine, online content and a printed book, as well as a filmmaker of two features, "Unbranded" and "Charged," as well as short films. He loves his lifestyle and the changing landscape of his career. He finds planning more than 6 months out hard. Each summer he takes time for his own outdoor experiences, leading elk hunts and pack trips. His work focuses on discussing conservation and caring for the wildlife and wild land. Ben's career path and how it led him to where he is now: Unbranded launched Ben into the spotlight, and opened up doors for other projects. Years  before, in 2010, Ben joined Parker Flannery and Mike Pickney to ride 2,000 miles along the Continental Divide Trail. That started his desire to make a border to border ride, and gave him an introduction to BLM Mustangs. Once the movie launched, it truly started his career. Ben had the help of filmmakers to create the masterpiece of "Unbranded" and that has helped him in the next projects. What has helped Ben along in his career? "Unbranded" was successful because of a massive team effort, Ben said. He found Kickstarter donors that helped get the project rolling. [here you will hear Ben get honked at! He said: “I hate being in cities!”] Most of the stories Ben tells are a reflection of thing he is passionate about. He did not study photography or writing or filmmaking, but he uses those modes to get his story told. At Texas A&M University, Ben studied wildlife biology and has used that knowledge when working ranches. He loves wildlife, and his background gave him credibility to tell the stories about conservation that he does. Speaking the lingo helps him to tell the stories he does. Working in the field and living the lifestyle of his story sources makes for a greater connection and comes through when he tells the story to an audience. Skills learned on the job, and how he's evolving his skills: He states that it is pretty hard to screw up a photo in the mountains with a bunch of horses. When he was “broke and needing money” Ben worked on the [oil field] rigs, where he purchased a Canon 5D Mark III and started taking photos. That inspired his love of photography. “Getting a shot right is one of the most satisfying things you can do,” Ben said. “I love the feeling of getting a shot.” He discusses the differences in taking a superb still photo versus filming. Equipment suggestions for working in the field: Ben is a “big fan” of the 5D Mark III. He has a 5D Mark IV, too. He discusses why he likes the cameras and some limitations he has seen. For video, Ben shoots with a Canon C500. "Unbranded" was shot with the 5D Mark III and C500. "Charged" was shot with a lot of GoPros. Typical hours or time commitment for your job? He does not have much separation between personal life and work because what he loves to do is his job. Ben discusses how his “work” filters into his life. Typically, his work is 18 hours a day. A feature film can take three years to move from concept to the screen. A short film will take about four months. How he gets funding and payment for his projects: Ben is still working to master the art of making money at what he does. The feature films have been a combination of Kickstarter for seed money and working with brands like Yeti. Ben says Kickstarter is crucial for alerting people to a new project. Also, when they contribute funds, it allows them to feel ownership of the project. Distribution networks like National Geographic and Western Horseman help. However, Ben had to prove his work was worth the effort before being hired by these organizations. Feature films do require financial backers for the higher budgets. How he chooses his projects, whether video, writing or a photography exhibit: All the stories and projects are things Ben is passionate about. He has a long list, but works to see whatever is timely. He enjoys character driven stories that can be a vehicle to understand a complex issue, like wild horses on public lands. However, he does not consider his films activist films. Instead of seeking stories, Ben has stumbled into them based on his relationships. Most challenging and rewarding parts of his chosen career: The most challenging part is that Ben spends a considerable amount of time chasing down funding. The most rewarding part for Ben is seeing the impact a project makes on someone's life, for example seeing more people adopt Mustangs after "Unbranded" premiered. A quantifiable and tangible impact is important. “Charged,” Ben's latest feature film, is inspirational. He has also worked with a veteran's program, Heroes & Horses, through his projects, giving them a tool for fundraising and learning from veterans. If you could do it over again, would you choose a different career path? Sometimes, Ben does entertain other employment opportunities. He doesn't enjoy the aspect of his job that requires appearances that place him at the center of attention. Preferably, Ben would like to drop social media and just work with horses. But, the obligation to tell stories is greater to him. Kate, Abigail and Ben discuss the responsibility of storytelling through good journalism. Advice for young people wanting to work in the equine media industry: Avoid “balls & chains” like debt, so that you can take off whenever the job or project calls. College debt, relationships and other factors can interfere with the chance to work on quality projects. Ben discusses the need to work to establish a portfolio so that bigger projects come your way. However, he said he still doesn't get the high budget projects all the time. He also advises to ask for help, or ask people to provide assistance. His own career is a culmination of people helping him out. Finally, surrounding yourself with good teammates is key. Advice for freelancers wanting to take on a big project: Ben has never had someone offer him a project. Moreover, he has started projects, and then people want to get involved as they see the potential. Especially early in his career. Ben has made a few short films that were never purchased, resulting in a loss of funds. However, it was important to have that project in his portfolio. Abigail agrees it is not always about the paycheck. Advice for pitching big companies or publications:  He advises face-to-face meetings instead of only email pitches. The face time meeting can help show your passion about the project. Human interaction in a pitch is key to Ben.   How to find Ben Master's online: Facebook  Ben C.

Ben Masters is a filmmaker and conservationist whose work explores some of the most important conservation challenges facing the American West today. He was the mastermind behind the award-winning documentary "Unbranded," which tells the story of Ben and his three buddies who ride wild mustangs from Mexico to Canada as part of an epic five month-adventure. The film also examines the Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse Program, a well-intentioned, but now controversial, government program created to protect the wild horses that roam the western U.S. For those who love the American West, "Unbranded" is one of the best documentaries in recent memory—it combines hardcore adventure with important conservation issues, all while accurately capturing the true beauty of the American West. • Conservation is the common theme running through all of Ben’s work, and his passion is fortified with a deep knowledge of natural history, public lands, and policy issues related to the American West. His expertise recently earned him a spot on the BLM’s Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board, the group tasked with solving the challenging issues surrounding the program he profiled in "Unbranded." His most recent film, "Pronghorn Revival," is the story of Texas wildlife biologists capturing and relocating a struggling herd of pronghorns (i.e. antelopes). Not one to rest on his laurels, Ben is working hard on more conservation projects to be revealed in the coming months. • When we recorded this episode, Ben was less than a day away from leaving on a multi-week guiding trip to the area around Yellowstone National Park, so I really appreciated him making the time to chat. In just under an hour, we managed to cover a wide range of conservation-related topics: the BLM’s Wild Horse Program, invasive species in the American West, thoughts on hunting, as well as Ben’s personal background, favorite books, favorite documentaries, and a crazy horse stampede story... with plenty of other intesting subjects thrown in. • If you haven’t already, be sure to check out "Unbranded." You’ll love it.

UNBRANDED reveals the true interdependence of man, animal and nature -- their 3000-mile gauntlet through five states that is indescribable and unforgiving. Sixteen mustangs, four men, one dream: to ride border to border, Mexico to Canada, up the spine of the American West. The documentary, UNBRANDED, tracks four fresh-out-of-college buddies as they take on wild mustangs to be their trusted mounts, and set out on the adventure of a lifetime. Their wildness of spirit, in both man and horse, is quickly dwarfed by the wilderness they must navigate: a 3000-mile gauntlet through five states that is equally indescribable and unforgiving. This story of rugged independence reveals the true interdependence of man, animal and nature. As we see first-hand, Ben Masters, Jonny Fitzsimons, Thomas Glover and Ben Thamer, relied upon the incredible strength and energy of mustangs - these wild horses - who had been chosen and trained for this purpose. The group set out to inspire adoptions of the 50,000 wild horses living in holding pens in the American West and to bring attention to the fragile ecosystem and this last uninterrupted vertical stretch of public land in the West. Along the way, the support they receive from others, including a veteran horseman and cowboy poet whose life has been deeply connected to horses and the backcountry, creates a meaningful bond among the men and the animals. Director and co-cinematographer Phillip Baribeau stops by to talk about his visually stunning, emotionally charged plea for the lives of thousands of wild mustangs currently held in stifling captivity.

Interview with Ben Masters. Ben is THE expert in my opinion on how to build rapport with people. He is the guy that goes to a friend of a friends party and ends up the centre of attention. Some really practical tips on how to get better at approaching people and converting them into clients.

Ben Masters Produce r of Unbranded the Film Unbranded the Film is a documentary about a horseback ride.  But this is not just any horseback ride, it is a ride that follows the Continental Divide, nearly 3,000 miles.  Ben Masters was a sophomore at Texas A&M studying wildlife biology.  Over the summer break he and a couple of friends thought it would be a great adventure to ride from Texas to Canada.  They needed a few more horses, but didn't have much money.  Their solution was to acquire a few mustangs from the BLM.  That ride was in 2010.  The group rode for four months, but they did not make it to Canada. After Ben got home he thought about the ride and how well the mustangs had performed.  They had actually out performed their good horses.  He also kept thinking about the untamed beauty he saw crossing this great country.  This is where the inspiration for Unbranded the Film was born. If Ben thought crossing the peaks of the Divide at 11,000 feet was difficult, he had no idea what he was getting into with Unbranded the Film.  The movie would obviously need money.  More importantly he would need a crew that was used to filming in extreme conditions.  Ben recruited Phill Baribeau to film and direct.  He also tag Korey Kaczmarek for cinematographer.  Ben started a Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds.  With the help of 1200 supporters and an assist from Western Horseman Magazine just 45 days Unbranded the Film raised over $170,000. Unbranded the Film was picking up momentum as Ben recruited a few friends to ride along.  The Mustang Heritage Foundation got behind the project.  The group would use 16 mustangs over four months to cover 3,000 miles. The Unbranded the Film is in "the can" as they say in Hollywood.  Ben and his group will be screening it at a variety of film festivals early this year.  He is hoping for a theatrical release by the middle of the year.  Ben talks about his inspiration for the film and the challenges in making it.
