Podcast appearances and mentions of brian call

Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I'm joined by Mark Livesay, and in this episode we dig into a recent land transfer bill that almost stripped thousands of acres of public land from hunters like you and me. We're talking politics, truth, and the real power of grassroots action. Mark and I break down what almost happened, how the bill got shut down, and what this fight says about the future of public lands in America. No fluff, no filters—just facts, fire, and why hunters can't afford to sit this one out. ____________________________________________________________________ WE RECOMMEND GEAR THAT FLATOUT WORKS.

Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I'm joined by Mark Livesay, and in this episode, we're talking bear hunting—what works, what fails, and what it's like to have a giant bear charge you after calling it in solo. Mark shares the full story of his first Montana bear—called with a mouth call, shot at under 50 yards, and not down after the first hit. We get into the gear, the tactics, and the moments that nearly went sideways. We also cover giant coastal bears, the truth about bear meat, and what really happens when the pressure's on and the camera's rolling. If you want to hunt smarter, kill bigger bears, and avoid costly mistakes—this one's for you. ____________________________________________________________________ WE RECOMMEND GEAR THAT FLATOUT WORKS.
