In one of our most accent-ridden podcasts ever, Robbie interviews three wildfowlers (Dave Upton, William Wykes, and Gerald Carlile) from all over the United Kingdom about their exploits in the marsh, the community and culture around “wildfowling” in the UK and the traditions they share. If you thought you heard some hectic accents before on the podcast - just wait till you listen to this one. However the topics that are covered in this podcast are the root of hunting worldwide, but focused on wildfowling (aka duck hunting in America). The individuals and Robbie explore the tradition, heritage, and elements that make wildfowling what it is, they even explore punt-gunning, though banned in the US, is still something you can do in the UK. Importantly the entire group talks about how self-regulating the waterfowling / wildfowling community is and why they self-regulate themselves. This is a must listen to podcast!

Mega charismatic fauna create a deep seated emotional response as it pertains their management - ie wolves, bears, and in Africa, elephants. Elephants are one of Africa's most debated conservation challenges, Robbie sits down with Dr. Sam Ferreira, large mammal ecologist for South African National Parks, unpacking the complex reality of elephant management in Kruger National Park. Drawing on decades of research, field experience, and real-time data, Ferreira challenges the common assumption that more elephants automatically mean more ecological damage, instead revealing how elephant behavior, resource distribution, and “ice cream aisle” habitat preferences drive localized impact. From historical human influence and shifting landscapes of fear to modern conservation constraints and adaptive management strategies, this conversation explores why managing elephants isn't about hitting a magic number but understanding the dynamic systems they shape.

A connection from a past podcast guest, and an invitation to podcast about an industry that if you looked at from the outside looking in, in a place like Scotland, one may think it's an industry that is not compatible with wildlife and sustainable use conservation. Stefan Rijnbeek, an expert on forestry initiatives and how they're tied intimately to conservation efforts in the UK, spends the better part of an hour schooling Robbie on the complexities of forestry in the UK and Scotland in particular.

Arguably the biggest fight (and let's be honest there are a lot of fights) within the hunting community is the use of euphemistic terms to potentially lessen the impacts of words. The biggest euphemism utilized is using harvest vs. kill. Is it truly a cop-out? Should we be changing our language depending on the audience we are talking to? Are we apologizing for being hunters and what we do when we change terms? Charles Whitwam from HOWL for Wildlife, James Nash from the 6 Ranch Podcast, and Robbie get together on this podcast to have a very frank and open discussion about this.
