You probably have some words of wisdom from whoever taught you how to hunt, and I'm willing to bet it still sticks with you in some way. My grandfather loved to still-hunt with a rifle. When I first started learning how to do the same, he told me if I wanted to see deer, I would have to slip through the woods with the wind in my face. But if I wanted to kill a deer, I'd better have it blowing in my ear. I have to say, my most successful still...

It's Whitetail Week at MeatEater! Host Clay Newcomb is joined by hunting icon of his youth, Aaron Stanphill. They talk about growing up hunting whitetails in Arkansas before trail cameras, feeders, and the technology that has transformed deer hunting. Aaron and Clay reminisce about learning to read the woods, studying deer sign, hunting public land, and figuring things out through trial and error. Aaron shares the story of finally killing his first Pope & Young-class Arkansas buck after 30 years of hunting, along with some of the legendary characters and lessons that shaped him as a deer hunter, with no shortage of additional entertaining stories to boot. The conversation turns back to the Bear Grease Con Man series on Asa Carter, exploring the contradictions of a man who could write with extraordinary empathy while also becoming one of the most notorious voices of segregation in the American South. The crew shares their opinions on questions like: What does it mean when a person changes? Can a man's later life tell us anything about who he really was? And don't forget to check out the Ultimate Whitetail Giveaway. Go to the Meateater store and sign up to win a pile of amazing gear along with a hunt with Mark Kenyon and Jordan Budd.

In part two of the revisit of our Conman series on the double life of Asa Forrest Carter, Clay Newcomb dives into the gritty details of the violence, hate, and conspiracy philosophies of the first 45 years of his life and how, in the last decade of his life, he transformed into an unrecognizable, “Cherokee Indian” author who wanted to be America’s next Hemmingway – and almost did it. Once again, author of Unmasking the Klansman, Dr. Dan T Carter and Steve Rinella of MeatEater lead the way as his guests. Brace yourself because this winding trail will be treacherous as they talk about the beating of jazz singer Nat King Cole, read from the Unabomber’s Manifesto, and begin to understand how Asa Carter did what he did. We’re going neck deep into the mind of a Conman. We really doubt you’re gonna wanna miss this one… Audio excerpts courtesy of “The Reconstruction of Asa Carter” Thank you to our sponsor, Tecovas.

Dan Flores is back for another visit on the podcast. If you're a fan of the history of the American West, then Dan is no stranger—he's the author of many of my favorite books, including American Serengeti, Coyote America, and Wild New World. Most recently, he wrapped up a 42-episode series with the MeatEater network called The American West with Dan Flores, covering everything from bison and wolves to the origins of our public lands and what it means to belong to a place. It's the closest most of us will get to sitting in one of Dan's university classes, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Dan is Professor spent much of his academic career at the University of Montana, but he's always been less interested in the Old West of cattle drives and gunfights than in what he calls the natural West—the landscapes, animals, Native people, and ideas that make this region unlike anywhere else. He grew up in Louisiana, a place with almost no public land, and spent the 1970s looking for a foothold in the real West. He found three: the canyon country outside Lubbock, Montana's Bitterroot Valley, and the Galisteo Valley south of Santa Fe, where he and his wife, Dr. Sara Dant, live today. In each place, he dug in, learned the country, and went to work restoring it. As expected, we covered a ton in this episode: We started with the story behind The American West series and how a decades-long friendship with Steven Rinella finally turned into 42 episodes. We discussed the biggest epiphany Dan had while making it—that for those of us living here now, the public lands matter far more than the frontier ever did. Dan traces the origins of public lands back to George Perkins Marsh, a wildly influential public intellectual most of us have never heard of, and forward through John Wesley Powell, the first forest reserves, and the end of homesteading in the 1930s. We dug into Theodore Roosevelt's transformation from a young man who rushed to Dakota Territory to kill a buffalo before they were all gone into a president willing to break with his own Gilded Age class to protect the landscapes and wildlife he loved. We also talked about repeat photography and the staggering disappearance of the glaciers in Glacier National Park, the willful destruction of Western wildlife, bioregionalism and rewilding on a scale that any of us can manage, and a few book recommendations to round it out. Be sure to check the episode notes for links to everything we discussed, including the full American West series and the new 2026 edition of Coyote America. Dan is as generous with his time and wisdom as anyone I know, and I always come away from these conversations with a longer reading list and a better understanding of this place. --- The American West with Dan Flores podcast Dan's Books Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/dan-flores-2 --- THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS: Mountain & Prairie is listener supported via Patreon, and brought to you with support from the Colorado Cattlemen's Agricultural Land Trust, MIRASOL: Looking at the Sun, Patagonia Books, the Rye Resurgence Project for their generous sponsorship. --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 0:00 - Introducing Dan Flores and highlighting the Rye Resurgence Project 7:24 - From writing to audio 13:10 - The natural West 20:01 - Aha! moments 28:41 - George Perkins Marsh 44:43 - Animal eradication 52:31 - Teddy Roosevelt deep-dive 1:05:18 - Place 1:13:56 - Rewilding the Bitterroot 1:20:12 - Rewilding on your own scale 1:23:06 - Book recs and wrapping up --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts

Matthew Kufahl, 46, of Hayward, Wisconsin, killed an impressive Booner buck last season. After tagging a 181-inch 12-pointer on November 12, he figured he could sit back and relax for the rest of the season. Five days later, he checked his trail cameras and found pictures of an even bigger buck. “I was like, oh, I didn't kill the biggest deer up here,” Kufahl told MeatEater. Kufahl was running trail cameras in three counties and had never seen...

Habitat Podcast #403 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with Cory Franceus and Matt Zahl! We discuss: -Hutchy gets poison ivy and cellulitis prepping one stand in southern Ohio in 95-degree heat. -Matt plants a sixteenth-of-an-acre plot in the middle of his swamp after a year of rain. -The crew picks cereal grains and oats as the late plant if you're still stuck in a drought. -Jared asks whether deer that survive EHD in Jackson County come back with any immunity. -Matt builds an 8x8 hexagon blind with 13 plexiglass windows for about $1,200 on a bad knee. -Cory won't shoot his 4-year-old from the same Banks blind because it felt like a video game. -Cory's small fixed blade sat in an Iowa buck's lung for four days before a second arrow. -Jared shoots a heavy high-FOC arrow but says fixed blades never bleed like expandables. -Cory estimates a buck's score from ear length, eye spacing and base size in the field. -Cory explains the NDA Field to Fork mentoring program on MeatEater's donated Back 40.

Fitz Cahall is the creator of the legendary outdoor podcast The Dirtbag Diaries, co-founder of the creative agency Duct Tape Then Beer, and author of the excellent book States of Adventure. But most recently, he's gone from prolific creative mind to public lands advocate with the launch of Save Public Lands, a campaign that gives public land lovers of all stripes, from climbers to hunters, a way to go on the offense against the ongoing attacks on our public lands. The goal is a million signatures on a short letter with three clear demands: no more sell-offs, no more giveaways to foreign companies and billionaires, and no more backroom deals. Those signatures get delivered to DC and statehouses around Public Lands Day on September 26th. Partners include Outdoor Alliance, Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, MeatEater, The Conservation Alliance, and The Wilderness Society. Fitz got his start in the mid-2000s scraping by as a freelance journalist, a job he refers to as "naked subsistence hunting." In 2007, he took a few stories that hadn't sold and turned them into a podcast. He emailed it to 30 friends. The next day 30 people had listened, then 300, then 3,000. Nearly 20 years later, he and his wife and creative partner Becca have built Duct Tape Then Beer into a story studio behind award-winning films and podcasts, all guided by one rule: the work has to strengthen people's connections to the natural world and to each other. We talked about how Save Public Lands came together, why Fitz chose offense over defense, and how a coalition this politically diverse—hunters, climbers, skiers, veterans, and legacy conservation groups—managed to find common ground and rally around a shared goal. Then we lightened it up and got into his creative life, including why he treats creative work like a band rather than a solo act, how he and Becca avoided chasing money for its own sake, what he does when his enthusiasm dips, and why he believes doubt and optimism are far more powerful together than either one alone. It's worth noting I consider Fitz a role model in a lot of ways, and I don't think Mountain & Prairie would exist without his example. I've been listening to The Dirtbag Diaries since the days when you had to download podcasts onto your computer, load them onto your iPod, then plug the iPod into the tape deck in your truck to listen. That's exactly what I was doing back then, driving around trying to sell real estate, and those stories cracked open a whole way of living and working that I didn't know was available to me. So thank you, Fitz, for all of it. There's a link below to sign the letter. It takes about 20 seconds, so there's no excuse not to do it. I loved this conversation, and I hope you enjoy. --- SAVE PUBLIC LANDS – Sign the Letter!

Send us Fan MailIt's another week and another pile of stories from the road! Early August I produced a live stream with Steven Rinella's MeatEater crew, then covered the first MLF Team Series event on the Potomac, then all the way to Lake Ontario to shoot trout and salmon for In-Fisherman TV.Fishing topics this week: a fantastic jig-and-crawler tip, a brand-new bladed jig trailer worth talking about, and a really good multi-layered tip on reading walleye reactions on forward-facing sonar.We get into stuff that rarely gets talked about — what you talk about when the fishing completely sucks. Jay Kumar has a marriage story that makes an appearance, the owner of Grady-White who flat-out refused to sell, and a few thoughts on why it's important to not worship money.Plus Angling Uploaded news: more live streams coming from the water, and a first look at the Rapala ClapTail 110 that had smallmouth on the Mississippi River near me fired up. That video drops this Friday, September 18th at 5 p.m. CST on Facebook and YouTube.But there's SO MUCH MORE!Sit back, crack open a cold one, and relax.

Can you go to the temple after eating meat? What if you've been drinking, smoking, or simply don't feel “pure” enough?In this episode, we explore the tension between spiritual standards and compassion. We discuss whether people need to be perfect before entering a sacred space, the difference between guilt and shame, and how genuine spiritual practice can gradually transform our habits and consciousness.Through personal stories, the teachings of Srila Prabhupada, Bhagavad Gita, and the story of the hunter Mrigari, we ask a deeper question: Should we judge people by where they are, or welcome them for where they're trying to go?00:00 — Can Meat Eaters Go to the Temple?05:52 — How Bhakti Changes Us07:19 — Intention, Awareness & Respect10:43 — Compassion vs. Boundaries12:40 — Guilt vs. Shame16:13 — Responding With Kindness20:24 — Standards Without Perfection23:32 — Bhakti Is for Everyone30:03 — Transformation Takes Time40:16 — Final ReflectionsProduced by: Sunni Sharma and Viraj Limbachia Filmed by: Filmwork Studios Edited by: Hannah BrownWant to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasKomi: https://radhikadas.komi.io/

Flying is always stressful for Brent. He says he likes being in different and remote places, he just doesn't always enjoy the process of getting there. A fear of flying isn't the issue; trusting his possessions to strangers is. You're allowed to carry backpack with a shaving kit and extra change of clothes on the plane with you, but you can't carry a bow and arrow and store it in an overhead bin.

This week Brent's sharing two stories where the only thing they have in common is that he's telling them in English. Well, his version of English anyway. The first is from a father son scouting trip with his son, Hunter, when Hunter was six. The follow up tale is from one his father shared with him about a man who was difficult to work with back in the 1980s.
