From his media content on "Fresh Tracks" and "On Your Own Adventures," Randy Newman is well-known as a influential and motivational big-game hunter. But he's also an avid bird hunter and the intersection of the two passions is where we start our conversation. There's plenty of common ground, and he'll share some of the lessons that apply to the uplands as well as the deep woods. We cover new uses for your online mapping app, ways to find new public hunting ground, some tips for avoiding crowded land, and some of his must-carry gear. He also offers on-the-ground population guesstimates for sharptail season. "Fix It" argues for more open chokes and offers a range-finding tip ... listeners debate whether or not collar bells scare birds.

Trevor Walz of Western Prairie Outfitters joins me for a deep dive into prairie bird habitat and hunting strategies. From the importance of shade, to scouting new ground, this guy has some useful insights. We dabble in Mearn's quail as well, as his outfit also guides Arizona in winter. We'll cover some of the early steps you can take to help your dog's steadiness, starting with creating a more "composed" dog, and touch on some essential gear. Trevor helps us be better clients and finally, reveals the answer to the most-asked question I get: how much do you tip a pro guide? "Fix It" suggests a couple more federal alphabet-agencies that manage public ground on our behalf that most hunters neglect, and listeners sound off on why, when and how they use non-toxic shot - you may be surprised at their answers.

What's a rooster do all day? If you know, you'll be a better hunter. So I asked Pheasants Forever's resident guru Sabin Adams to take us to school on the subject and boy did I learn a lot. From feeding to roosting to loafing, he clocks the bird's movements so you can be in the right place at the right times. Sabin talks food sources, the importance of physical relationships between food, cover, and water (!). What to do in snowy conditions, rain, what birds eat and where are all part of our wide-ranging discussion. "Fix It" covers strategic feeding of .... us. And listeners share the adrenaline rush - and more, of a pheasant flush.

He sounds like your favorite coach, teacher or Scoutmaster ... understanding where you (or your dog) are, and where you want them to be. Charlie Jurney is a multi-champion dog trainer, hunter, and author. You've seen his byline in many dog magazines, and on his book Finished Dog. We'll roam the field and water, uplands and marshes while we talk about his connections to legends Richard Wolters and Delmar Smith, then explore his own unique "dog theory." We explore ways you can - and should- train during early-season hunts, get down-and-dirty with Charlie's ways of teaching the retrieve, steadiness, and range for flushing dogs. Charlie explains the clues dogs give us when they're "getting it," and makes clear that we're put on this earth to help dogs do well - it's just a matter of how we do it. "Fix It" has reminders on critical items for your hunting vest, and listeners chip in with their views on the hardest birds to hunt.

Summer camp! Nope, not braiding lanyards and making s'mores. Out on the prairie, it's all about dogs and wild birds and Mel Leuck joins me from her camp to give us the lowdown on what really happens there. What's a day look like? Why drive so far? She'll have the answers. We also cover important training topics including steadiness on birds, keeping your dog out in front of you, and how to keep dogs cool early in the season. A vet tech too, Mel will help us pull porcupine quills the right way, and shares some emergency gear she carries in the field.

In this episode, Wayne Pollock (Founder of the Law Firm Editorial Service) explains why, in order to survive and thrive in today's evolving content world, attorneys and their firms (and all professional services providers and their firms, for that matter), need to be THE DESTINATION for thought leadership in the eyes of their target audiences and not simply A SOURCE of it.In other words, they need to be the Joe Rogan of their practices.Wayne walks through seven high-level considerations attorneys and their firms should keep in mind as they build out their content programs in the hopes of becoming THE DESTINATION for thought leadership for their target audiences.1. Commit to the concept of thought leadership.2. Commit to the idea of owning a niche or owning an industry.3. Create thought leadership consistently.4. Take an omnichannel approach to content creation.5. Consider producing content across the content spectrum.6. Create a content team and staff it appropriately.7.

The smoke has cleared and yes, we won on that proposal of Sen. Mike Lee's to sell off public lands. My guests from the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership are Michael O'Casey and Tristan Henry, and we'll look back on what happened and how, and more importantly what bird hunters can do NOW to prevent another land grab. From "all politics are local" to adopting your very own cause, we'll go deep into the weeds on policy and how critical it is that we grass roots stay engaged. We'll also get some advice on finding public access ground, and share dog notes - both guys are avid chukar hunters and versatile dog owners. "Fix It" has three points of view on caring for your dog's pads.

The AKC just made a major change to field trial rules: judges in walking stakes can now use ATVs and UTVs instead of being required to ride horses. To unpack what this means for the sport, I sit down with Paul Hermes — a Florida-based AKC field trial and hunt test judge — to talk through the impact. Paul is realistic about the situation and in an ideal world, he would prefer to have horses for judging. But he also recognizes the practical challenges: horses are increasingly hard to source, and many younger participants don't own them. We discuss the upsides of this shift, the potential challenges it brings, and why, overall, this move could help keep field trials alive and more accessible for the next generation. You can find Paul on Facebook or email him at phermes1@gmail.com.

Grouse, woodcock, training during the hunt, and a short history of Gordon Setters ... those are the topics in my conversation with Stephen Faust, pro grouse and woodcock guide, dog trainer and breeder, and avid hunter. We'll also cover a typical guide's day in the field, how we can be better guide clients, and dog training tips. We'll track a woodcock's day - where it hangs, what it eats and even how professionals like Stephen tag chicks in the spring. We'll look at habitat and habits, and dog handling for these wily birds. Then, into the grouse woods for insights into some lesser-known prime food sources, cover types, and habitat needs from opening day to winter. "Fix It" offers a useful web source for finding birds, and listeners (a lot of them) weigh in on "Do beeper collars scare birds?" You'll take something useful away from that discussion!

In this episode, Wayne Pollock (Founder of the Law Firm Editorial Service) walks through the five reasons why consistently producing thought leadership content helps you become a more appealing and sought-after presenter. 1. From a preliminary standpoint, it creates a platform to get noticed by event and conference organizers, which is how you get the opportunity to become a presenter in the first place. 2. It's how you build a following, which will likely mean more attendees for your presentations. 3. It forces you to regularly refine and polish your thoughts. 4. It lets you test your ideas and receive feedback on them. 5. It helps you more efficiently create the presentations you give during your speaking engagements, which allows you to spend more time working on how you present than on what you will present about.====+ Learn more about Wayne Pollock, the host of Legally Contented and the founder of the Law Firm Editorial Service: https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynepollock+ Learn more about the Law Firm Editorial Service:http://www.lawfirmeditorialservice.com+ Do you have any idea how much money your firm is losing when its lawyers write thought-leadership marketing and business development content themselves?Learn how much with the Law Firm Editorial Service's Thought Leadership Cost Calculator:http://www.WriteLessBillMore.com+ Do you want to elevate your thought leadership, distinguish yourself from your competitors, and never again be your target clients' second choice?

Chris and Corey are joined by Blackpearl Group's CTO, Sam Daish. In this episode, he's dousing us with the reality of why most sales AI tools are basically expensive cat toys. Blackpearl has built Bebop.AI, a tool that makes sense as an addition to a sales pro's tech stack. It could probably replace several nonsensical shiny AI tools they are currently batting around instead of making calls. Corey's firing questions about AI fatigue (because let's face it, we all have it), while Chris goes full mathematician on us with this brutal insight: sales reps are like cats chasing laser pointers with AI. Lots of movement, lots of fascination, but nobody's actually catching anything. You may wonder how this fits in with BeBop.ai. It will make more sense after you hear the origin story - they almost called it "Hot Pipe" until someone pointed out the, uh, alternative interpretations. Instead, they went with a full bebop jazz vibe in the function and tone because they wanted sales to feel like improvisation, not a pile of dated rigid playbooks. As the real kicker, Chris breaks down why most AI implementations fail: false negatives. You're not just calling the wrong people - you're missing the right ones entirely. And Sam's nodding along because BebopAI tackles this by making the entire Internet your database instead of some limited proprietary dataset. The feature that gets reps most excited? Not the fancy prospect data. It's the objection handling. Turns out confidence beats information every time. Join us for this episode, “The Laser Pointer Problem: Why your reps are chasing AI like distracted cats .” Action Items Suggested in This Episode: For Sales Leaders/CROs Audit your AI strategy focus - Are you trying to bring bottom performers up, or amplify your top performers? Chris argues the latter delivers exponentially better ROI Identify your "Jonti McLarens" - Find your top performers and give them 10% more time/better tools (equivalent to adding 10 middle-tier reps) Evaluate your current AI tools - Are they creating "laser pointer cat" behavior or getting reps to more conversations? For Sales Reps Test BeBop.ai's's dossier approach, with a special focus on the objection handling feature that receives the most positive feedback. Use AI for discovery prep, not avoidance - Read dossiers in the minutes before scheduled meetings when memory retention is highest. Ask "why" to AI responses - Sam emphasizes this helps uncover hallucinations and improves reasoning. For Sales Operations/Enablement Shift from proprietary databases to "Internet as database" tools - Evaluate platforms that can digest broader data sources Implement AI that works as "companion, not a replacement" - Focus on tools that enhance human expertise rather than substitute for it Measure false negatives, not just false positives - Track opportunities missed, not just wrong prospects contacted For Product/Marketing Teams Load your website into BebopAI - Sam says this simple step works really well for basic company understanding Document your go-to-market messaging - Feed it into AI tools for consistent, company-specific responses. Create objection handling libraries - The most requested feature, according to Sam's feedback. For Executives/Investors Recognize top salespeople as an innovation economy constraint - Chris's thesis: Elite sales performance limits how fast innovation spreads Budget for commission accelerators - Top performers using AI tools may exceed traditional quota expectations Rethink headcount-based scaling - Focus on amplifying existing top talent vs. adding middle-tier reps Immediate Next Steps Try the "Internet as database" approach - Ask AI tools open-ended questions like "find me customers for [your company]"
Pro cocker spaniel trainer Gene Barnhardt joins me to cover all things flushing ... and more!

BE A BETTER SHOOTER with these insights from NSCA Level 3 instructor and bird hunter Dave Fiedler. My friend Dave has a different take on becoming a better shooter ... simplify, shed a bad habit (or maybe two), and soon you'll be yelling "Fetch!" Dave will take us through a lesson just as he teaches at Mid Valley Clays & Shooting School with an emphasis on hunting, not target shooting. You can take his tips into the garage and the range, then the field, from practice to practical. In the second half, we cover gun fit for us regular folk who aren't buying a bespoke English shotgun ... simple things we can do to ensure our eye, cheek and shoulder are working together. Then we fix some of the common in-field goofs we make with our feet-eyes-hands-shoulder-gun. "Fix It" squares away your mobile mapping app; and listeners share their horror stories when I requested their worst Friday the 13th bad luck.

I am so excited for you to get to know Ashleigh! She is one of those delightful humans you feel like you've known your whole life right off the bat. Warm, joyful, and welcoming, Ashleigh and her husband Daniel have 2 elementary age kids, one of whom is a classmate to my son Opie. If you're local to La Grange, you may have seen her walking her GSP, which I learned is the insider term for German Short-haired Pointer. She grew up in a now large Austin suburb called Hutto when it was just a small country town, and first came to Woven when she was invited to our annual Advent gathering by a neighbor. This conversation hits on everything from an unexpected pregnancy and shame, to seeking to fill a void and pursuing counseling, to the desperate prayers we pray when we don't even know if anyone is listening. Today we pick up the conversation with Ashleigh sharing some of her first memories of how her faith was formed at an early age. Memorable Quotes:“Even though I've done all these things, and achieved all these things, in high school, in college, undergrad, masters, I just kinda felt like - Ok, so? This is great, this is a wonderful achievement, but I didn't feel like it was enough. I was hungry for more and I didn't know what that was.”“I started noticing our marriage going down this road of not what I wanted and I knew it wasn't something he wanted either, and I just didn't know what to do about it. I had no idea what to do about it, and I knew something was missing, I knew that we could do better than this, we, as a team, as a marriage can do better than this.”Reflections on desperate prayer: “Now that I think about it, I didn't ask for a specific thing, I just asked for help.”“I just felt like I wasn't good enough, and I think we've all been in that place.”“It wasn't because of the people, it was just what I was creating in my mind.”“In the Bible, the women do a lot, they do a lot that really shift the story and change the course.”
