Welcome to episode 415 of The Outdoor Biz Podcast, brought to you this week by Toyota. From the RAV 4 to the mighty Tacoma, Toyota has a model built for everyone's Outdoor adventures. Today I'm talking with Photographer Matt Addington about his career and recent film A Bird Dog Named Kaiya. How the love for a bird dog inspired a young man to fully embrace bird hunting, an important part of his Laotian culture. Brought to you this week by Toyota Facebook Twitter Instagram Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here: rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com Show Notes Show Notes First Overnight Adventure: Matt doesn't recall the exact first experience but he grew up in Northern Minnesota, where outdoor life was part of his lifestyle. He spent a lot of time in places like the Boundary Waters and Voyager's National Park. When Did You Pick Up a Camera? Matt was enamored with cameras from a young age. He remembers having a Kodak disc camera when it came out and taking numerous pictures, even as a child. However, his more serious introduction to photography started in seventh grade when their art teacher gave him a Pentax K 1000 and taught him darkroom techniques. Start in Video: Although Matt didn't start shooting video when he first picked up a camera, he began experimenting with tape-to-tape edits in junior high and early high school. He says he officially entered the digital video side of things in the late '90s due to seeing the potential in digital video and having support from leadership at the school where he taught. Inspiration to Go Pro: There wasn't a specific moment Matt decided to go professional. It was a gradual transition as he was already doing photography and videography as part of his teaching job. Over time, he started getting paid for projects outside of teaching, leading to a shift into the professional world. First Significant Photo or Video Shoot: While there might not be one defining shoot, Matt recalled a moment at the Shot Show where he unexpectedly saw one of his images displayed prominently for a major brand, marking a standout moment in realizing the impact of his work. First Outdoor Commercial Shoot: Some of his initial commercial shoots were with Carbon TV (formerly Carbon Media Group) and Federal Ammunition. These shoots involved hunting trips to places like Quebec and working with local companies from Minnesota, where Matt is based. Preference in Outdoor Activities: Matt is fond of paddling but also emphasizes the uniqueness and enjoyment in each activity he's been fortunate to experience, be it climbing peaks, guiding through mountains, or quietly sitting in tree stands. He highlighted the beauty of different experiences and how each holds its own significance. Favorite Place: Despite the numerous epic places visited globally, Matt finds a new appreciation for home when returning from these adventures. He says the joy of watching the sunset from his front porch with family, indicating a deep appreciation for the familiarity and beauty of home. Catalyst for the film "A Bird Dog Named Kaiya": The catalyst for the film was meeting Ken Yang, a young man who had transitioned from being a staunch anti-hunter to a prominent voice in the hunting and fishing space due to personal life events. How they met Ken Yang: They met at a Professional Outdoor Media Association conference in Nashville, where Ken Yang received a media scholarship. Development of the storyline: Initially, there was a concept of telling the story of a former anti-hunter turned hunter due to his unique ethnic background. However, the storyline evolved as they delved deeper into Ken's story, focusing more on the impact of a dog in changing his life and reconciling relationships. Capturing the content for the film: It took multiple hunts, approximately four days, to capture the content, ranging from golden fall days to extremely cold weather (10 below zero). Current projects: Matt is working on various projects, including a documentary about a unique turkey hunter, a personal piece highlighting the legacy of a deceased friend in the outdoor space, a documentary about a prestigious hockey school, and a project about dispelling myths of trophy hunting in Africa. Advice for aspiring photographers: Matt encourages new photographers to experiment with photography, use resources like YouTube for learning, and find inspiration from others' work that resonates with them. Daily routines: There's no fixed routine, but Matt enjoys walking, hiking, and spending time in nature. Coffee in the morning seems to be a consistent ritual. Favorite books: Books like the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn, and Matt also finds inspiration in reading the Bible. Favorite outdoor gear under $100: Matt mentioned his Irish Setter boots (although they might be slightly above $100) and a pair of gloves by Striker that provide dexterity and warmth.

The story reads like an action-movie and is the perfect read for fans of Tom Clancy, Mark Greaney, and Lee Child. Don Bentley's military background gives him the unique ability to write pulsepounding action with authority. He flew an Apache attack helicopter in Afghanistan and was the air mission commander of the aerial quick reactionary force attempting to rescue Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell as part of Operation Red Wings.

On today's 148th episode of The Thriller Zone, we're thrilled to welcome New York Times bestselling author Kyle Mills.Kyle is the superb author who took over the Vince Flynn legacy series of the Mitch Rapp stories. And today he speaks about his latest thriller CODE RED, and how he plans to hand off the series to another iconic author, Don Bentley.If you're a fan of military-themed thrillers, then you no doubt are supremely aware of Kyle's masterful handling of Mitch Rapp.This is taken from Kyle's website, as he shares some "Behind The Scenes" of the iconic series."Code Red was an interesting novel to conceptualize. Because I was considering making it my last entry in the series, I found myself looking back at where I'd been—from finishing the arc Vince started in The Last Man, to Mitch going toe-to-toe with an opponent who was nearly his equal, to the desperate race to stop a Russian invasion of Europe. Over my time guiding the series, the character has evolved from a man still enraged and frustrated by the death of his wife to someone who's found the stability of a new family and maybe even a little peace.In the meantime, America has endured a decade of violent geopolitical changes from both inside and outside its borders. The direct threat from Islamicists has given way to growing political dysfunction, an increasingly belligerent China, and advancing technology that seems to be careening out of control.What's Mitch Rapp's role in this new reality?In the end, I decided it wasn't my place to find out. I wanted to leave Mitch's new custodian a solid platform to launch from without locking him into any particular course.This gave me the opportunity to end with a stand-alone adventure that puts Mitch back in Arab territory but with a few modern twists. The goal was to tip my hat to Vince's earlier books by creating an operation that involves a lot of fireworks and returns Mitch to his roots.Which brings my era to a close. It's hard not to feel a little sadness, but I'm excited to move forward with my Fade series. While I'll miss writing about Mitch and the gang, I'm really looking forward to going back to reading about them." -Kyle MillsTo learn more about Kyle and follow him on his new journey, go to: KyleMills.comAs always, THANK YOU for following and subscribing to TheThrillerZone.com Are you an author in search of a professional website?

Major news in the Rappverse! Here's our quick instant reaction to the news that Code Red will be Kyle's last Mitch Rapp book and Don Bentley will write the next Rapp book in 2024! More to come!
For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Kyle Mills. Kyle is the current author of the Mitch Rapp book series. And Mitch Rapp just so happens to be one of my most beloved fictional characters! The series was started by Vince Flynn back in the late 90s. Though sadly, Vince Flynn passed away in 2013 after writing 13 books in the series. Not long after, Kyle took up the mantle and continued writing more novels centered around the iconic character. And as of the release of this episode, Kyle's eighth book in the series, Oath of Loyalty, has been released! Though Kyle's own story goes well beyond just writing thrillers. While growing up, his father worked for the FBI, and he moved to different places in the US and the UK as a bureau kid. Along the way, he also took up rock climbing, which was an interest that led him to his current home in Wyoming. Now as a writer, he and his wife have become part-time expatriates living in both the US and Spain. In this episode, Kyle tells us about the places that he's lived along the way. We also discuss his journey as an author and what it's been like to continue writing a book series that has a very loyal fan base. As well as where he thinks he'll take the series moving forward!
