Brad shares his go-to camera gear, and we get into packing tips, bow case hacks, muzzleloader mishaps, and why thermoses are clutch for late-season sits. We also talk public land etiquette, bear hunting tactics, and the gear we're loving right now, like Sitka's mosquito and tick-resistant Equinox Guard and new saddle gear from Latitude. Plus, Foam Fest updates, filming plans, and some good ol' Midwest deer camp talk. No fluff. Just real hunts, hard-earned lessons, and a few laughs.

Another incredible day in the Coulee Region with highs in the mid-60's today…might even hit EIGHTY tomorrow! Jean was out sick today, but Brian held down the fort. In the news this morning, the Wisconsin clerk who failed to count 200 absentee ballots in the November election has been placed on leave during an investigation, the latest on the Waukesha teen accused of killing his mother & stepfather, a festival in Wisconsin cracked the top five in a recent USA Today readers poll of the best festivals in the country, and the 4th of July fireworks in Eau Claire are back on the calendar! In sports, the Bucks take on the Lakers tonight, we recapped yesterday's Big 10 Tournament action and looked ahead at today's games, Aaron Rodgers is officially a free agent for the first time in his career, and AJ Dillon is on his way to Philly. We talked about what's on TV tonight and also got on the horn with Office Cora to let us know what she's doing in the 715 this weekend. Plus, it's another "Hypothetical Thursday"! Brian's question for Cora was: "What is the largest animal you could physically beat up" And Cora's question for Brian was: "If you could instantly learn one skill, what would it be" Not sure who's doing this…but apparently people are holding in farts. Which isn't good for you, obviously. We ran down a list of problems that can cause. Hulk Hogan is coming to the state of Wisconsin next week to promote his "Real American Beer" in Appleton, Beaver Dam, Watertown, Oconomowoc, Kenosha, Lake Geneva, & Waterford. But he might have some explaining to do about a recent appearance in New York. Did you hear about the ski-jumping scandal in Norway? It involves extra fabric in the crotch area. SCANDALOUS! And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a #FloridaMan who burned down a strip club & threw a bottle of his urine at officers, a group of men in Memphis who got arrested for blocking an intersection by twerking in the middle of the road, a guy who went nuts on a plane & attacked a flight attendant after swallowing his rosary beads, a woman who allegedly kept her stepson trapped in a house for twenty years, and people are accidentally putting nail glue in their eyes instead of eye drops.

Congratulations Jim!

Today, on the Deep Rooted Healing podcast, I'm sharing a beautiful poem that I read this morning called, "The Most Important Thing" by Julia Fehrenbacher. It touched my heart and I felt inspired to share it with you today. Deep Rooted Healing Podcast is hosted by Emma Freeman, an artist, writer, Reiki Master, Massage Therapist and teacher in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. She is sober, a Highly Sensitive Person and part of the LGBTQIA community. -You can learn more about Emma Freeman and what she creates and offers at ⁠www.deep-rooted-healing.com⁠. -View Emma's library of on-demand creative and writing classes and retreats focused on intuitive and emotional expression, slowing down, mindfulness and meditation : ⁠www.deep-rooted-healing.com/classes⁠.

Although not every event in Israel's wilderness wandering is recorded, the rebellion led by Korah, Dathan, and Abiram typifies the rebelliousness of the older generation. Although the descendants of Kohath already hold the honored position of carrying the holy things of the tabernacle, still they desire for themselves the priestly service given to Aaron. Likewise, the descendants of Reuben desire the authority given to Moses.  The LORD deals swiftly with this rebellion by opening the earth to swallow up Korah and his company. The LORD provided a physical reminder of this event in a covering that was made for the altar.   Rev. Jason Schockman, pastor at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Oconomowoc, WI, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Numbers 16:1-40.  "Wilderness Wanderings” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the book of Numbers. After the LORD delivers His people from slavery in Egypt, He leads them toward the Promised Land. Although the first generation of Israelites proves faithless, the LORD remains faithful to His people and brings a new generation of Israelites to the plains of Moab. This strengthens us to listen to God's promises today and stay faithful to Him as He guides us toward resurrection life.

It's a lovely cloudy morning here in Wisconsin and I'm sitting at my little art table in my bedroom with coffee and the windows open that look out onto the woods around our house. I love these quiet mornings, this is the time when I sit and wander inside myself and with whatever inspires me in the moment. Today that is a sketchbook/art journal I wrote in two years ago that I picked up off my shelf the other day and started flipping through. I came across little sketches, creative ideas and thoughts I had forgotten about and they began stirring up fresh creative ideas and reflections. It reminded me how important it is to look back sometimes and how glad I am that I write things down by hand, not just on my computer or my phone, which I also do a lot of. But it is such a different, precious experience to keep handwritten journals and sketchbooks and then get to find them again later. One entry I found was from October 2022 with a quote from the gorgeous book by Mark Nepo called Drinking from the River of Light: The Life of Expression that I was reading at the time which I share on the podcast. He writes about “Truth windows”, an interior window placed inside an ancient style of dwellings to reveal what the walls were made of. When I read this, it blew the windows of my mind and heart wide open with inspiration and awe! I hope you enjoy listening. -See photos of my little art table, art journal I mention and a couple of photos of truth windows I found here: ⁠https://deep-rooted-healing.com/podcast/episode-42⁠ -Sign up for my newsletter to receive updates on what I'm creating and offering: ⁠https://emmafreeman.myflodesk.com/newsletter⁠ -See all of my on-demand creative classes and retreats here: ⁠www.deep-rooted-healing.com/classes⁠ -Follow me on Instagram ⁠@deeprootedhealing⁠. -Visit my website: ⁠www.deep-rooted-healing.com⁠.

Immediately after Haman's shame at being forced to honor Mordecai, he is taken to Queen Esther's second feast. There Esther reveals her request to Ahasuerus: she asks that he spare her and her people from destruction. When the king asks who is behind such wickedness, Esther names Haman as the foe. As Haman realizes his imminent demise, he pleads for his life from Queen Esther, but the king sees it as an assault on his wife and orders that Haman be executed on the very tree Haman had intended for Mordecai's death. To see Haman receive what he deserved in being executed on a tree reminds us of the curse of our sin that Jesus took upon Himself when He went to the cross for our salvation.  Rev. Jason Schockman, pastor at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, School, and Early Childhood Center in Oconomowoc, WI, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Esther 6:14-7:10.  "For Such a Time As This” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the book of Esther. Although God is never explicitly named in the book of Esther, He remains the One who directs all the events of the book. Happenings that seem coincidence, chance, or luck are truly God at work. He puts Mordecai and Esther in the right places and moments to work through them to deliver His people.

Summary Emma Freeman shares reflections on the power of retreats to replenish the creative spirit, drawing from her recent experience at a creative retreat at Snow Farm New England Craft in Williamsburg, Massachusetts organized by Ali Manning and her team from Vintage Page Designs. She discusses the restorative and inspiring nature of the retreat, the activities, realizations, and the impact on her creative journey and business. Takeaways -Retreats provide a restorative and inspiring environment for replenishing the creative spirit. -The immersive nature of retreats fosters deeper connections and realizations within a community of like-minded individuals. -The creative energy present in art making, Reiki, and other forms of expression is interconnected and flows through us in similar ways. -Traveling and stepping out of routine can lead to fresh ideas and a renewed sense of alignment and purpose. -The distinction between retreat experiences and workshop/class experiences lies in the immersive and communal nature of retreats, allowing for deeper connections and interactions. -Living with questions and allowing experiences to guide the understanding can lead to the emergence of clarity and purpose over time.

Not too many of these places exist at airports anymore, but Madison still offers the experience. The experience of mail delivery on Geneva Lake is also something you'll find only in Wisconsin, where people deliver mail by boat, jumping off the boat, popping mail into the box, and jumping back on the boat - all while the boat is in motion (and yes, sometimes they miss!) Freshwater surfing is Sheboygan is a unique experience, since the geography and sandbars tend to make for some of the best lake waves you'll find anywhere - helping Sheboygan earn the moniker “Malibu of the Midwest.” Speaking of beaches, Schoolhouse Beach on Washington Island features beautiful, rounded rocks that you can visit and enjoy, something hard to find anywhere else. Wisconsin's supper clubs are pretty unique unto themselves - a true gem of a meal experience you can only have in Wisconsin. Eric noted that Wisconsin is the only state where you can experience two Great Lakes coasts and the Mississippi River, with its bevy of recreational opportunities.

Some of the World's Largest things can only be found in Wisconsin, whether it's a “M “ (at Platteville), a Six Pack (La Crosse), a Chain of Freshwater Lakes (Eagle River), a Fly-In (Oshkosh), or Waterpark (Wisconsin Dells.) Numerous festivals offer unique experiences, including Summerfest in Milwaukee, the annual Cow Chip Toss (Prairie du Sac), or the U.S. Snow Sculpting Competition (Lake Geneva), Even some names are only found in Wisconsin, like Waunakee or Oconomowoc. There's an island of only goats (Jefferson), a unique children's garden with lighted tunnels and a library (Bookworm Gardens in Sheboygan), a museums dedicated to Harley-Davidson Motorcycles (Milwaukee), Woodcarving (Shell Lake), and all things eclectic like House on the Rock, which is without question something you can only experience in Wisconsin. Craft breweries, wineries, and distilleries offer unique experiences, as do the extensive cranberry marsh tours you can take, the experience of a Milwaukee Brewers game under the only fan-shaped convertible stadium roof in the world, or - of course - legendary Lambeau Field in Green Bay.

This week, in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, an unlikely couple enjoys the good life, full of fun at the lake, and good friends. Until one of them decides they'd rather be with someone else, then it turns into a bloodbath. A bloodbath, that the murderer calls an"accident". But accidental deaths usually don't end up with parts of the bodies in a wood stove, and the other parts in a cornfield. A truly terrible killing, with an equally baffling excuse, and outcome! A creepy, weird, and head shaker of a story!!Along the way, we find out that you may still need air conditioning in Wisconsin, that decapitation is a strange response way to handle an accident, and that you shouldn't hesitate to eat the fries that you find under your car seat!!Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie WhismanNew episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.comGo to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!
