“[David Joy]is a man who sees his homeplace clearly and who writes like his hand was touched by God.” — The New York Times Novelist and essayist David Joy is a tall, lean and red-bearded denizen of the hollers, mountain tops and ridges of Jackson County, North Carolina. He is an obsessive turkey, deer and squirrel hunter, a fisherman who wrote his first published book on fly fishing but who is equally at home running live baits for big flathead catfish on Piedmont rivers. He is on the very short list of great American fiction writers and essayists who hunt and fish and speak for public lands and conservation as naturally as they breathe or write. This podcast was recorded at David's cabin near Little Canada, North Carolina, after a long hike in the Pisgah National Forest to scout new hunting country, in the good company of David's little feist dog, Edie Munster. Listeners who love David's stark and hyper-realistic style of writing, and his oft-times harrowing and unsettling novels, will love when Hal and David talk writing and story after a deep dive on turkey calls and turkey hunting.

Public lands and waters have risen to the forefront of hunter-angler issues in 2025, from Utah's attempted steal of 18.5 million acres of land owned by us all and managed by the Bureau of Land Management to divestment and sale of public lands being floated in Congress and the shrinking of the Federal workforce charged with overseeing the health of our shared resources. The daily flow of information has been a constant -- one that's hard to keep up with. In this special episode of the Podcast & Blast, Hal sits down with BHA President and CEO Patrick Berry and Director of Government Relations Kaden McArthur to sort through the maze and learn what's really going on. And most importantly, we learn of BHA's critical work in advocating for our shared lands and waters and the role we all play as citizens of the United States in deciding the future of our public lands. This is an episode not to be missed for any hunter, angler or outdoor recreationalist.

When Mandela Leola Van Eeden was a child roaming the South African outback, her father would run a flag up a tall pole above their cabin so that she and her dog would be able to find their way back home. Her mother is from Valier, on Montana's Hi-Line, and Mandela grew up mostly in Billings, steeped as much in the Montana outdoors culture as she was in her father's native South African farming and ranching world. She is a hunter and an angler, an international whitewater rafting guide and explorer,  musician, Ashtanga yoga teacher, and host and producer of the hugely popular podcast The Trail Less Travelled. The foundation of her life and her work is the beauty and power of the natural world, conserving it, honoring it, being a part of it. Mandela serves on the board of the Montana Wildlife Federation, and is a critical voice in African conservation efforts, from the Zambezi River to watersheds in the Atlas Mountains.

Trey Curtiss, a native son of Montana, is BHA's Strategic Partnerships and Conservation Programs Manager. Trey is also among a very small group of public lands' elk hunters who have successfully filled a bull tag now for over ten years in a row. Ponder that, for a moment: for any of us who have hunted bulls in the backcountry and think we know exactly what that entails. Do we know, really? What are we missing? What does it take, really, in time, gear, commitment, preparation? Join us for one of the most in-depth talks on public lands elk hunting that you will ever encounter.

Come with us to Houston, Texas, to talk saltwater fishing, conservation, philosophy and life with Pat Murray, former light tackle fishing guide and President of the Coastal Conservation Association (CCA). Pat is the author of Pat Murray's No-Nonsense Guide to Coastal Fishing and the just-published It's More than Fishing, from Texas A&M University Press. He's also the publisher of TIDES magazine, and an award-winning outdoor writer and reporter. CCA was founded in 1977 to address the drastic commercial overfishing of redfish and speckled trout along the Texas Gulf Coast. The battles were fought on the water, in the statehouse, and wherever fishermen gathered to demand change before the fisheries were lost forever. That battle was won. New challenges, and new successes, abound. The CCA now has over 125,000 members, with 224 local chapters across all three US coasts. “We work to protect not only the health, habitat and sustainability of our marine resources, but also the interests of recreational anglers and their access to the resources they cherish.”    --- The Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring is brought you by Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and presented by Silencer Central, with additional support from Decked, Dometic, and Filson.  Join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, the voice for your wild public lands, waters, and wildlife to be part of a passionate community of hunter-angler-conservationists.  BHA.

RA Beattie was the man behind the camera for many of the most influential fly-fishing films of the past several decades. It's no exaggeration to say his work changed the culture of fly fishing. Beattie's work has always told the story behind the story – transcending just a sport about catching fish, and allowing us to connect with the why. From giant Arctic char to dorado in the Bolivian jungle, to steelhead on the Deschutes and milkfish in Dubai, RA has set the standard for fly-fishing films and inspired countless others to expand their work beyond “fish porn.” Watch two of his latest- The Hard Way and The Silent Spotter to see what we're talking about, and then explore more of RA's work through his Off the Grid Studios/RA Beattie Productions. Join us for a conversation with RA about his work, his passions, and a life behind the camera in some of the most exotic flyfishing destinations on earth. And if he ever gets tried of traveling for filmmaking, he travels some more, to places like Suriname and Cameroon, to verify sustainable wood sources for a guitar maker. As RA says, every fly-fishing filmmaker needs a second job at times.    --- The Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring is brought you by Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and presented by Silencer Central, with additional support from Decked, Dometic, and Filson.  Join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, the voice for your wild public lands, waters, and wildlife to be part of a passionate community of hunter-angler-conservationists.  BHA.

During the deluge of Hurricane Helene, over 30 inches of rain fell in the headwaters of the iconic Nolichucky River in North Carolina, falling on ground already saturated from prior rain. The Nolichucky crested nine feet higher than its record flood levels, wiping out almost everything in its path. Although the river experienced scouring and erosion, it was the man-made infrastructure that fared the worst. Among the losses were almost 40 miles of railroad tracks owned by CSX Transportation. Everyone wants the train tracks rebuilt, and the vital freight transportation link restored. But nobody could have predicted that the rebuilding project, contracted out to a company from Mississippi, would involve recklessly mining the riverbed, blocking tributary creeks, tearing up National Forest lands, and destroying one of the most beloved fishing and whitewater rivers of the entire eastern U.S. None of this had to happen. Agencies tasked with permitting and watchdogging this operation seem to have failed entirely. The public's demands for the work to be done in a less destructive manner have been met with silence. Join Tennessee fishing guide and paramedic and BHA member Chris Lennon and North Carolinian Phillip Widener (Charman of BHA's North Carolina chapter) to learn about what's happening, and why it is so crucial, right now, to hold responsible parties accountable and stop this entirely avoidable assault on our public lands and waters.

Wilderness meets Modern Society -- Seth Kantner Part II Alaska's Seth Kantner is back with us, as promised, for part two. Seth was born in a sod igloo on the Kobuk River in the 1960s and has been hunting, trapping, fishing, and making a life on the land there ever since. He is the author of the novel Ordinary Wolves, considered one of the most powerful, gritty, and true-to-life Alaska books ever written. His non-fiction books, Shopping for Porcupine, Swallowed by the Great Land, and A Thousand Trails Home: Living with Caribou, illustrated with the photos that have made him a world-renowned wildlife photographer, chronicle a life, a people and a landscape tangled in the conflict between the oldest powers of nature, wildlife and wilderness and the storm of changes wrought by the modern Anthropocene. Through it all, he's maintained his profound sense of wonder, and his equally profound sense of humor. He even found time to write a children's book (Pup and Pokey) about the mishaps and adventures of a wolf pup and a porcupine surviving on the tundra.

Hal Herring is an award-winning outdoor journalist, fierce public lands advocate, and thoughtful, action-oriented conservationist. He's also an accomplished podcaster and host of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers' Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring. If you're a longtime listener of Mountain & Prairie, you may remember my first episode with Hal back in December of 2019– pre-pandemic, when the world was a much different place. Like me, Hal was born and raised in the south, and also like me, his Southern accent has not faded. But he's made Montana his home for many decades now and has established himself as one of the most respected voices in conservation here in the American West. This episode was recorded live and on stage at the 2024 Old Salt Festival on the Mannix Family Ranch in Helmville, Montana. If you're not familiar with Old Salt, it's a three-day gathering in Montana's Blackfoot Valley that combines live Americana music with artists like Sterling Drake and Summer Dean, wood-fired cooking with chefs including Eduardo Garcia, and a General Store featuring western makers such as Cate Havstad, Jillian Lukiwski, Christy Sing, and many more. The festival also includes a ton of on-stage conversations about land stewardship, conservation, history, literature, and more– and this is one of those conversations. Most of you are probably already familiar with Hal, but if you're not, you are in for a treat. Hal brings such energy, humor, and knowledge to everything he does, and he has personally helped me in my own personal journey to better understand this complex region known as the American West. In this conversation, we covered a lot, including: Hal's journey from Alabama to Montana, his thoughts on the current state of family ranching and public lands, optimism vs pessimism, and who he admires in the conservation space. We also discuss his forthcoming book on public lands, an idea he is working on for a new podcast, and we take a number of questions from the audience. I know you'll learn a lot from this episode– I consider Hal a great teacher and leader, and it's always an honor to spend time with him. Tickets for the 2025 Old Salt Festival are on sale now, so follow this link to learn more and secure your spot at what will surely be another amazing weekend with amazing people.

BHA Podcast & Blast, Ep. 153: The MT Legislature, The Weed Tax, and The Conservationists Montana's legislature meets for only 90 days every two years, but the amount of work that goes into a single abbreviated session is mind-blowing. In just a few short months during its 2023 session, more than 200 bills dealing with fish and wildlife management, public access, conservation funding, and fair chase hunting and fishing opportunities will have been introduced and considered in Helena. On this week's Podcast & Blast, we sit down with Jake Schwaller and John Sullivan of the Montana BHA board and Kevin Farron, BHA regional policy manager, to discuss a few of these bills, how best to make your voice heard, and why BHA members from across the country need to stay vigilant and engaged when the sausage is being made in their own state. Join us as we explore what Costco has to do with Montana's new pheasant stocking program, how nonresidents who own land in Montana will be given up to five deer and elk tags, and how recreational marijuana is funding - or was funding - the state's best conservation tool: Habitat Montana.

BHA Podcast & Blast, Ep. 148: Drew Phipps and the Restoration of the Candy Darter America's Midwestern rivers – the Elk, the Kanawha, the Ohio and all their vast systems of arterial tributaries – are home to a mind-boggling array of some of the most bizarre creatures on this planet. Among them, the candy darter, a tiny fish of such astounding beauty that its very existence begs questions about human perception, evolution and aesthetics: Why would a fish look like this? Why is it so beautiful? Join us for the return of one of the Podcast & Blast's most popular guests, Drew Phipps of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Fish Hatchery in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, where a successful program to restore the candy darter to its original riverine habitats is bearing fruit.

Today I'm presenting a popular podcast blast from the past from Episode 180. In it I described 8 common mistakes clinicians make when trying to pivot to a new job. Let's revisit the answer to this question: What are the most common mistakes that will derail your job search? Tunnel vision and not keeping an open mind Being intimidated by a job description Preparing a CV rather than a resume Using the same cover letter and resume for different jobs or different industries Depending too much on online applications and not leveraging networks Not learning the jargon of the field we're pursuing Not taking the interview seriously Not preparing sufficiently BONUS Mistakes to AVOID: #1 – Failure to prepare a COMPLETE LinkedIn Profile. #2 – After the interview but before accepting the offer, not investigating the employer with other employees, customers, and physicians to determine if it will be a good fit for you.

On Feb. 10, Chef Garcia will be leading a Field to Table Experience with BHA. His new TV series, Zest for Life, is available now. Listen to Hal's 2019 interview with Eduardo if you don't know his story and then listen to this one, a conversation with a man who was struck down by an unimaginable accident while hunting and who worked his way forward: from the edge of death and the reality of loss, to a life more abundant.   

I interview three moms who all decided to keep homeschooling after their first experience with it during Covid. Thinking about homeschooling? Or maybe this was your first year too! You'll love this episode! How it went, what was different from school, what they struggled with and what they loved. Curriculum ideas too! (Podcast Blast from the Past! Originally released May 2020.)

Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM), a hunter, angler, longtime conservation champion and BHA member, has introduced legislation known as the Recovering America's Wildlife Act (S. 2372). This bipartisan bill would dedicate nearly $1.4 billion annually to fund projects by state and tribal fish and wildlife agencies that benefit both game and non-game species. In partnership with a broad coalition of organizations, businesses and fish and wildlife management agencies that make up the Alliance for America's Fish & Wildlife, BHA is working to advance this legislation, the product of decades of hard work by devoted sportsmen and women, conservationists and business leaders. In this special episode of the Podcast & Blast, Hal talks with Sen. Heinrich about why hunters and anglers have a major stake in the conservation of habitat relied upon by a range of fish and wildlife species. Learn more and take action in support of the Recovering America's Wildlife Act.  

This discussion was first presented in June of 2019. It was in response to one of the most common questions brought up in the Physician Nonclinical Career Hunters Facebook Group. Your MD or DO degree is valuable. It enables you to compete for jobs with PhDs and PharmDs. Remember, too, that these jobs are open to residency-trained physicians, often at slightly higher salary levels to start. 1. Medical Writing For physicians looking for flexibility and work they can do from home, medical writing may be the answer. With a vast range of options, from blog articles to technical writing, discouraged doctors are sure to find something that fits their needs. 2. Clinical Documentation Improvement Medicare regulations have caused an explosion of companies focused on Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI). As a CDI professional, you will be trained in the intricacies of translating chart notes and discharge summaries to appropriate billing codes. This work is extremely important to hospitals because it determines whether appropriate payments are collected and how quality measures are reported. 3. Medical Communications Generally, you'll be working in marketing agencies that deal with pharma and device companies. It's a great role if you enjoy working in a conventional office with a regular schedule. Teamwork and communication skills are important. There are ad agencies that hire medical directors in most major metropolitan areas of the U.S. 4. Consulting Consulting can be an excellent career choice for physicians lacking postgraduate training. Firms sometimes prefer doctors without experience so they can train them to their way of doing things, without the need to break old habits. Depending on the firm and your location, it may require significant amounts of travel. It can be very lucrative, though, with opportunities for advancement. 5. Medical Monitor Doctors with experience working in research or on pharmacy committees are suited to a career as a  medical monitor. Medical monitors support research studies and ensure that they are medically sound. They track adverse drug reactions. And they serve as liaisons between principal investigators and the coordinating Contract Research Organization or pharmaceutical company. 6. Medical Science Liaison An MSL is a good entry-level job in the pharmaceutical space. Ideal candidates must be familiar with the regulatory landscape. This career involves regular travel and meeting new people. The course Introduction to 6 Nonclinical Careers Any Physician Can Pursue will walk you through the process of finding your first MSL position. Summary There are many jobs in the healthcare industry available to physicians without residency training. Since the original episode aired, additional jobs have been presented here on the podcast. In Pharma, there are jobs beyond MSL and medical monitor positions.  In Episode 209, Dr. Marsha Caton described the tactics for landing clinical scientist, clinical research associate, or technical medical writer jobs. And there will be more on that subject in Episode 214 with Dr. Laura McKain.

Today we're revisiting the conversation with Dr. Dana Carpenter from Episode #61. It was an eye-opening interview introducing us to Medical Communications. Sometimes this term is used to refer to any company that employs medical writers, such as a CME producer. However, in this context, we're talking about the firms that provide marketing and advertising services to pharmaceutical and medical device companies. They create ad copy for j medical journals and online publications, presentations for sales personnel, support for live events, and multimedia presentations for regional and national meetings. This job can be very attractive, offering a great lifestyle, infrequent travel demands, opportunities for advancement, and the possibility of working remotely from home.

Nonclinical Nation, it has been a long time since we have heard about clinical documentation improvement as a nonclinical career. And I thought it was time to revisit this topic. In fact, there are many interviews from early in the podcast that are worth revisiting. So, I decided to bring back some of them during this summer of 2021. We'll post several of these in the coming months, interspersed with new episodes, as a way to revisit popular nonclinical jobs with awesome guests.  The first blast from the past this summer is my interview with CDI expert Dr. Cesar Limjoco. Getting Your First CDI Job I enjoyed revisiting my conversation with Dr. Limjoco. He is very passionate about what he does. We really got into the core principles of CDI. And Cesar outlined the basic steps for pursuing such a career. Here they are: Get involved at your hospital on a voluntary basis with the appropriate committees and offer to help with CDI projects. Join professional organizations such as the Association of Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialists, the American Health Information Management Association, and the National Association of Physician Advisors. Take on a paid part-time position as CDI Physician Advisor as you continue your learning process. Expand your responsibilities to full-time if that's your goal.
