Jesse Johnson is back on Fall Obsession Podcast, and this time we're talking traditional bowhunting, a hard-earned black bear redemption hunt in Canada, hunting ethics, conservation, family, and what it really means to be a hunter. Jesse shares the story of returning to Canada after a previous unsuccessful bear hunt and finally punching his tag with a traditional bow. But this hunt was about much more than putting a bear on the ground. We talk about the mental challenge of the hunt, getting close enough to make an ethical shot, and why traditional archery is so much more about the process and the challenge than simply the size of the animal. The conversation also takes a deeper look at the responsibility hunters have as stewards of wildlife and ambassadors for the hunting community. Jesse and Sam discuss conservation, the role hunting plays in wildlife management, and why how we represent hunting. Jesse also opens up about balancing a passion for hunting with being a husband and father, introducing his kids to the outdoors, and the impact hunters can have on people who may not initially understand or support hunting. From a Canadian black bear redemption hunt to traditional archery, hunting ethics, conservation, family—this is an honest conversation about the why behind the hunt.Fall Obsession Podcast is sponsored by:Hoot Camo Company (https://hootcamo.com/) - use code "fallobsession15" to save with HootBear River Archery (https://www.bearriverarchery.com/) - use code "fallobsession" when shopping online with Bear RiverTactacam Reveal Cameras (https://www.tactacam.com/)The Outdoor Call Radio App (https://www.theoutdoorcallradio.com/)

And we are just back from 4 days hunting in the berry patches in western Oregon. The blackberries are heavy on the vines and you can smell them when you get out of the truck. This time we had a sound engineer with us and our favorite guitar tech. The sound engineer stepped off the plane in Oregon and three hours later he had his first black bear. Hunting by himself in a berry patch. With us on this podcast are Chris Daniels, Marc Larese and Troy Rodakowski. We're sitting around the table in a dimly lit kitchen telling the story.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Shawn Mahoney, aka the guy who carries a 20+ pound log named Larry over his shoulders, and with Larry he's hiked the Triple Crowner, Te Araroa, and just about all of the Northeast peaks. In this one, Shawn explains why the heck he carries a massive log everywhere he goes, describes losing Larry down a steep slope on the PCT and spending two hours bushwhacking to retrieve him, recounts nearly dying from a septic heart infection and medically induced coma- and the impact that's had on his passion for backpacking, and details how he waking up at 4am, or earlier, to bank miles pre-sunrise. We also cover how he's raised several thousand dollars for charity, how you can contribute to his latest cause, his refusal to cook or cold-soak, and his party trick of solving a 9x9 rubik's cube while hiking, something he accomplishes mid interview. We wrap the show with Trek Propaganda of Kelly's favorite thru-hiking memories, a heroic dog intimidating a black bear to save a kid's life - maybe, a trail debate on losing your spoon vs. your shelter, the Triple Crown of movies everyone loves but you hate, and I review the uber-popular FarPointe Sun Hoodie but you'll probably have to wait til Thursday for that one so kinda nevermind.

We're thinking about how when we do a reality tv show, we get suspended in time, and no matter how much we do in our lives we'll have to relive the same moments and have to defend ourselves over and over again. And we consider how that affects us. We get an update on the lady who married a *checks notes* ghost pirate (??). Apparently, things aren't going great. Sarah is excited all over again about birds that love to make video calls. We find out why the loneliest whale, Timmy, who beached and was stuck on the shore became a viral sensation and people who wanted to help probably made it worse. We learn about robotic tails (!) that are being used to help people who struggle with balance, but we aren't so sure it's worth the embarrassment of wearing a gee dee tail.00:00 - Defending Your Past Self from Reality TV14:42 - An Update on the Ghost Pirate Marriage Story25:51 - New Research Shows Birds Benefit from Video Calls31:11 - Well-Intentioned Humans and the Loneliest Whale36:22 - Dealing with Black Bears in Residential Areas43:26 - Japan's Robotic Tails for Balance and Stability50:54 - Personal Health Journey, Aging, and BMI MisconceptionsBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Download HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/4iJ1lVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off using code BRAINCANDYPOD on your next purchase.TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

In this podcast we are joined by Curt Cabrera of TradLife Films to discuss the incredible story of his tribute hunt for his late Father. Curt's dad passed last fall and he had an idea...

Welcome back to the Mindful Hunter Podcast! In this episode, Jay is in the basement with returning guest Bo Campbell, fresh off his first-ever bear hunt in British Columbia with Mindful Hunter Outfitting. They debrief the trip, talk through the realities of a 49-day guiding season, and make a big announcement: the launch of Mindful Hunter Outfitting South — guided Coues deer hunts in Mexico. Jay gets radically honest about the 2026 spring bear season. While the season was a massive success overall (11 bears across 18 clients), he breaks down the frustrating reality of a 55% lethality rate on shot opportunities — and explains why he's implementing mandatory pre-hunt shooting drills and what he expects from clients moving forward. They also get into the fascinating "heart shot phenomenon" where perfectly shot bears take off on a mindless, adrenaline-fueled dead sprint. In the second half, Jay and Bo officially announce their new guided Mexico Coues deer hunts. Jay explains exactly why the DIY Mexico hunting model is flawed, why it often costs just as much as a guided hunt for a subpar experience, and how they've secured three premier ranches for the 2027 season. If you want to hunt the rut in January/February with incredible food, dialed logistics, and giant deer — this is the hunt for you.

On this week's episode we follow up with Noah Mehmen after he goes on his black bear hunt. Noah had a blast on his hunt, and we had a blast hearing about it. Much to Brian's dismay Noah and Brad make every effort to derail this podcast, but ultimately we hear all about Noah's experience.
Are the Meindl Glockner GTX boots the perfect choice for alpine hunters — or just too much boot for most terrain? After 100+ days in the field, I put these boots through their paces across goat hunts, creek crossings, and even a glacier with fully automatic crampons. This is a real-world, no-BS review for serious hunters who want gear that performs when it matters.

In this video, I break down the most important lessons I learned during my first full year as an outfitter across Alberta and British Columbia. From scaling my business to guiding 12 clients across three different territories, this year taught me more than I ever expected—about hunting, decision-making, pressure, and staying focused under stress. Whether you're a new guide, an aspiring outfitter, or just a dedicated hunter looking to level up, this video offers real-world insight, hard-earned advice, and a deep dive into the psychology behind better hunting decisions.
We're surrounded by wildlife that tells us something about our ecosystem if we'll take just a moment to stop and smell the roses (or, in this case, take a gander at the kudzu). With our partners in the Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom, we're investigating so-called “signal species," starting with the lovable black bear. As their population has rebounded, so have human interactions – both positive and negative.Guests Caroline Eggers, WPLN environmental reporter John Boyle, deputy managing editor, Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom Janelle Musser, black bear support biologist, Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency Mark Thurman, director of conservation collaboratives in Tennessee, The Nature Conservancy
Black bears now inhabit all 55 counties of West Virginia, and bear encounters are on the rise across Appalachia. Climate change is often a hidden culprit. But state wildlife managers are working to promote peaceful coexistence. The post Black Bear Encounters On The Rise, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
After testing half a dozen knives this season, the North Arm Knives Lynx rose to the top. With its wide sweeping belly, full-size G10 handle, and tough Magnacut blade, this fixed blade knife proved itself in the field during multiple big game breakdowns. In this review, I walk through what makes this knife exceptional, what it's not ideal for, and why it's earned a spot in my kill kit. Whether you're a backpack hunter or a guided client looking for reliable gear, this review cuts through the noise and delivers real-world insight.
Is this the ultimate tripod head for hunters? The Wiser Precision Ridge Warden might be the most practical hybrid tripod head on the market — lightweight, strong, and uniquely capable of both glassing and shooting with its pan, tilt, and cant functionality. In this in-depth review, I test it with a Kowa 88 spotter and my rifle setup to see if it really replaces the need for separate glassing and shooting heads. We break down what works, what doesn't, and who this product is really for.

Episode Summary In this episode, Benoy Thanjan sits down with Victoria Stulgis, President of Black Bear Energy, to explore one of the most underrated opportunities in the solar industry: commercial real estate. Black Bear Energy acts as an owner's representative for institutional property owners, helping them deploy on-site solar and battery storage across their portfolios at scale. Victoria discusses Black Bear's recently published 2025 Real Estate Solar Leaderboards Report, a first-of-its-kind dataset tracking energized on-site solar across major U.S. real estate owners and managers. The numbers are eye-opening. Prologis leads with 309 MW deployed in the U.S. alone and more than 1 GW globally. Public Storage has quietly completed more than 1,100 projects totaling 111 MW. According to Morgan Stanley, there is still 326 GW of untapped solar capacity sitting on commercial rooftops across the country. The conversation gets into the real mechanics of how large REITs and institutional landlords are approaching solar today, why most deals are front-of-meter rooftop leases, what is driving community solar adoption in Illinois, New Jersey, and Maryland, and what the ITC phase-out means for lease rates and deal economics going forward. Victoria also makes the case for why battery storage is the next major frontier for commercial real estate and what it will take for the capital markets to catch up. Biographies Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Reneu Energy, a solar development and consulting firm, and a strategic advisor to multiple cleantech startups. Over his career, Benoy has developed more than 100 MW of solar projects across the U.S., helped launch the first residential solar tax equity funds at Tesla, and brokered $45 million in Renewable Energy Credit transactions. Prior to founding Reneu Energy, Benoy was the Environmental Commodities Trader in Tesla's Project Finance Group, where he managed one of the largest environmental commodities portfolios. He originated REC trades and co-developed a monetization and hedging strategy with senior leadership to enter the East Coast market. As Vice President at Vanguard Energy Partners, Benoy crafted project finance solutions for commercial-scale solar portfolios. His role at Ridgewood Renewable Power, a private equity fund with 125 MW of U.S. renewable assets, involved evaluating investment opportunities and maximizing returns. He also played a key role in the sale of the firm's renewable portfolio. Earlier in his career, Benoy worked in Energy Structured Finance at Deloitte & Touche and Financial Advisory Services at Ernst & Young, following an internship on the trading floor at D.E. Shaw & Co., a multi-billion-dollar hedge fund. Benoy holds an MBA in Finance from Rutgers University and a BS in Finance and Economics from NYU Stern, where he was an Alumni Scholar. Victoria Stulgis Victoria Stulgis is the President of Black Bear Energy, where she oversees the company's growth and day-to-day operations following the departure of founder Drew Torbin at the end of 2025. She has been with Black Bear for more than nine years, joining in the company's early days and working her way up through client-facing roles. Before Black Bear, Victoria built her career at two nonprofits focused on market-based solutions to climate change. She started at The Carbon War Room, Sir Richard Branson's climate NGO, where she worked on decarbonizing the maritime shipping industry. After The Carbon War Room was acquired by Rocky Mountain Institute, Victoria shifted her focus to corporate virtual PPAs, working directly with Fortune 500 companies that were early adopters of large-scale clean energy procurement. RMI was also an original seed funder of Black Bear Energy, which is how she connected with Drew Torbin and eventually joined the team. Black Bear Energy is now owned by Legence, a Blackstone portfolio company that went public through an IPO in September 2025.

A black bear near Flat Rock, a massive water main break in northern Oakland County, and one of Detroit's most talked‑about restaurants changing course all add up to a busy epsiode. We start with Norris History Month updates and a few fun picks, from Deluxx Fluxx and SPKRBOX to a Mother's Day dinner at Bar Pigalle in Brush Park. Then we dig into reports of a possible black bear sighting in southern Wayne County, what the DNR says to do if you see it, and why "you cannot knock out a bear" no matter what social media tries to tell you. There's a days‑long water outage and boil advisories after a 42‑inch main ruptured in Oakland County, what it says about aging infrastructure across Metro Detroit — and why sprawl is making the bill for repairs so steep for a region that hasn't actually grown in population since the 1970s. And finally, news that Marrow is consolidating into its Eastern Market location and leaving West Village and Birmingham, what that means for the restaurant scene, and the business reason why some "regional play" concepts end up gravitating to greater downtown. If you're dealing with the outage, seeing the development shifts up close, or just have thoughts on where this region grows next, let's hear from you!

The story of Murry Gunty is about more than a hockey dad interested in youth sports. It's about a businessman who saw an opportunity to build a lucrative hockey empire and cashed in on it. Gunty claims that his company, Black Bear, took almost all of its profits and reinvested them back into the business, allowing more kids to play hockey. But a nine‑month USA TODAY investigation found that how Gunty built and ran his empire has raised serious concerns among legal experts, including potential abuse of monopoly power and using non-profit teams for private gain. USA TODAY Investigative Reporter Kenny Jacoby joins The Excerpt to share more on this investigation. Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Spring bear season is one of my favorite times to be in the mountains, and it's also a great excuse to dial in my gear before the chaos of fall hits. In this episode, I'm joined by Trail Kreitzer as I break down every single item I'm carrying on my spring black bear hunts, and Trail is here to critique my choices. This isn't a “you need this gear” situation. It's more of a “here's what works for me and the reasoning behind it” conversation. Take what's useful, leave what isn't. What I like about bear hunts, this gear list is almost a mirror of what I use on fall mule deer hunts.
