Mountain lions are recently one of the more debated predators in Texas, and few people have spent as much time observing them on the ground as this week's guest, Brandt Buchanan.  For the past decade, Brandt has closely monitored mountain lion activity while managing ranches in west Texas, giving him a unique perspective on their behavior, distribution, and impact on wildlife.  In this episode, we discuss his experience with Texas mountain lions, how they impact other game populations, and some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding these apex predators.  We also dive into the current state of mountain lion management in Texas and why Brandt believes mandatory harvest reporting is a critical step toward gathering better data and making informed wildlife management decisions.  Whether you're a hunter, landowner, wildlife manager, or simply interested in one of Texas' most fascinating predators, this episode offers an honest, boots-on-the-ground conversation about mountain lions and the future of their management in the Lone Star State.Fall Obsession Podcast is sponsored by:Hoot Camo Company (https://hootcamo.com/) - use code "fallobsession15" to save with HootBear River Archery (https://www.bearriverarchery.com/) - use code "fallobsession" when shopping online with Bear RiverTactacam Reveal Cameras (https://www.tactacam.com/)The Outdoor Call Radio App (https://www.theoutdoorcallradio.com/)

Here is a detailed breakdown of the July 5, 2026, worship service and Pastor Rhonda Davis's message, organized with clear section headers, bulleted highlights, and a complete Scripture Index. Service Overview & Pre-Sermon Highlights Location: Church of the Harvest (TL Lowry Center) Special Occasion: Independence Day Weekend & America's 250th Anniversary Celebration I. Praise, Worship & Altar Ministry Opening Prayer: The service opened with a focus on celebrating both national freedom and the ultimate freedom found in Christ, inviting the Holy Spirit to fill the room. Miracle & Prayer Focus: Believers were invited to join their faith with the prayer teams at the altars to see God work miracles, declaring that every need must bow to the name of Jesus. Underground Church Reflection: Preachers reminded the congregation of the immense privilege of public worship, noting that members of underground churches globally meet in secret and worship with unprompted passion despite the threat of death. II. Sovereign Moves: Recent Testimonies Pastor Rhonda invited members to share their recent experiences from the unique altar ministry lines held the previous week: Tina Toles: Shared that despite initial fear and hesitation to step into the prayer line, she experienced an overwhelming, unprecedented power of the Holy Spirit that left her with a deep, lasting peace throughout her work week at Chick-fil-A. KK (Mrs. Smith): Expressed that after a period of being away from church and feeling like she was simply "floating" through life, stepping into the line brought an immediate sense of peace. Pastor Rhonda ministered to her, saying, "God said, I am yours," validating a real, physical encounter with the Holy Spirit. III. Harvest Announcements Wednesday Night Series: Summer in the Psalms continues this Wednesday at 7:00 PM at the TL Lowry Center, featuring Pastor Joe Robinson teaching from Psalm 139. Next Sunday Guest Speaker: Welcoming back Lori Wilke, an anointed speaker, singer, and author with a deep prophetic teaching edge. Community Outreach Impact: Pastor Rhonda thanked the church for its continued financial stewardship, highlighting recent works funded by tithes and offerings: reaching the homeless, jail/prison ministries, assisting single mothers, and completely covering the rent for a local family in dire straits. Special Presentation: 250th Celebrate Freedom Tribute Led by Army Veteran Michael Cook (who served 10 years stateside), the service paused to honor first responders and military veterans present in the congregation: Veteran / First Responder Branch / Conflict Bob Rumbaugh U.S. Army (Gulf War) & Naval Reserve (3 Years) Ralph Steven Beavers U.S. Army Zachary Wages U.S. Army Kit Carson Local Firefighter / First Responder Dale Perkins U.S. Air Force Michelle Hill U.S. Navy James Henry U.S. Army (Staff Sergeant) Liliana Henry U.S. Army (Private First Class) Presentation of the Colors: The United States flag was formally presented by Tina Toles, a retired Master Sergeant who served 21.5 years in the U.S. Air Force Air Combat Command, with deployments to Japan, Turkey, Germany, and Italy. Tribute Video: A special media presentation featuring interviews with church children and reflections on "American Grit," the founding fathers, and the constitutional right to pursue happiness was highlighted and credited to Austin and the media team. Sermon Outline: "Freedom Worth Celebrating" Preacher: Pastor Rhonda Davis I. Point 1: Land of the Free, Home of the Redeemed The Odds of Grace: Statistically, based on global birth rates, an individual has only a 2% to 3% chance of being born in the United States. A Beacon of Light: Over its 250-year history, America has outlasted its accusers, remaining a democracy through civil war, internal discourse, and external enemies. The nation historically leads the world in sending Christian missionaries to foreign sands and outspends the next three runner-up nations combined in global disaster relief. The Call to Stand: Reading from Galatians 5:1, the church is reminded that Christ sets us free for the purpose of living in actual freedom. Believers must actively choose never to be entangled again by a yoke of spiritual slavery. II. Point 2: Freedom Has a Price The Winter of 1777 (Valley Forge): To understand the value of freedom, Pastor Rhonda recalled General George Washington leading 12,000 under-resourced men into Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, after devastating defeats. 2,000 soldiers died from cold, starvation, and disease. Out of sheer desperation, men boiled their shoe leather for sustenance and left trails of blood in the snow from bare, frostbitten feet—yet they refused to surrender because they believed freedom outweighed personal comfort. The Cost of Spiritual Liberty (Calvary): Moving from Valley Forge to the hill of Calvary, Jesus Christ endured the ultimate price for human liberty. As prophesied in Isaiah 52:14, He was beaten beyond human recognition. Though He possessed the immediate power to call down 10000 angels (Matthew 26), He chose to stay on the cross because He determined our freedom was worth the price. III. Point 3: Two Freedoms, One Source Inherent Human Dignity: True liberty—both the civil freedom to vote and live without government interference, and spiritual freedom—stems from a singular source: God Himself. Because God is free by nature, and because humans are uniquely made in His image (Genesis 1:27), every individual possesses inherent, sacred dignity. The Living Room Jail Cell: Quoting Galatians 5:1 from The Message, Pastor Rhonda warned against trying to add legalism to grace. Living a restricted, legalistic life after being saved is equivalent to being liberated from a maximum-security prison only to build a voluntary jail cell right inside your own living room. IV. Point 4: Don't Go Back to Chains Guarding Against Apathy: History shows nations are rarely conquered by sudden external conquest; instead, they fall through internal apathy and gradually forgetting what it cost to obtain their liberty. Pastor Rhonda recalled a WallBuilders podcast interview by historian David Barton featuring a Washington State pastor who had to sue the government in 2020 because secular establishments were permitted to stay open while churches faced criminal misdemeanors for outdoor worship and singing. Identifying Modern Chains: The enemy constantly attempts to lure believers back into old bondages. These chains manifest as: Rehearsing past failures on a continuous mental playlist. Slipping back into toxic, generational family mindsets. Trapping oneself in people-pleasing loops and performance mentalities. Prophetic Deliverance: Pastor Rhonda shared a personal moment from her youth when minister Billy Burke gave her a word detailing a "ball and chain" around her ankle representing the conditional expectations of others. Breaking that chain requires standing firm—derived from the Greek word stekete, meaning to stubbornly hold your ground, defend your position, and completely refuse to be moved. V. Point 5: How to Steward and Stand Firm in Liberty Know What You Have: You cannot properly steward what you do not understand. Taking inventory of spiritual rights reveals that there is zero condemnation for those in Christ (Romans 8:1), sin is no longer your master (Romans 6:14), and the same Holy Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside you (Romans 8:11). Pastor Rhonda referenced a 2022 table talk discussion with Lance Wallnau and Cindy Murdock, recalling Wallnau's story of Donald Trump in 2015 challenging silent ministers to defend their biblical rights, which later resulted in the executive repeal of the restrictive Johnson Amendment. Use Freedom for Something Greater: Freedom is never the final destination; it is simply the vehicle. According to Galatians 5:13, liberty must never be used to satisfy selfish, sinful natures, but rather to serve one another in love. The sacrifices of past generations are dignified when we use our voices to speak truth with grace and act as the hands and feet of Jesus to help the homeless, the prisoner, and the vulnerable. Let the Holy Spirit Lead: Believers must maintain an open mind to how God wants to uniquely deploy their skills, influence, and talents across different seasons of life. It does not require unusual human ability to shift the world—only a caring heart, a determined mind, and a willing spirit. VI. Conclusion: Intercession for the Land The Command to Pray: Aligning with 1 Timothy 2:1-2, the church corporate is called to make supplications, prayers, and intercessions for all people, explicitly including kings and all secular authorities, so that believers may lead quiet, peaceful, and godly lives. A Promise of Healing: God is not finished with America. Relying on Lamentations 3:23 (His mercies are new every morning) and the covenant promise of 2 Chronicles 7:14, the church closed by corporate prayer, repenting of negative mindsets, asking for systemic healing from the White House to the communities, and calling a wayward generation back into their divine identity.

Middle managers are getting squeezed from both directions right now. While this isn't entirely new, the pace of change amid constant adaptation and uncertainty makes this season uniquely challenging. While you're trying to keep senior leaders happy, your team needs clarity, support, and meaningful leadership. This can feel overwhelming, to say the least. In this episode, I'm breaking down four management mistakes that are quietly trapping even the most well-intentioned leaders: the Task Trap, the Communication Trap, the Reactivity Trap, and the Talent Trap. While these aren't new problems, the pace of today's workplace has made them far more expensive to ignore. If you find yourself questioning how to uphold effective leadership, this conversation will help you gain clarity on how to cultivate enduring, productive, and rewarding relationships that advance collaboration and positive outcomes with those you lead. We will talk through how to bridge the gap between management and leadership, ensuring you're more than just a project manager, but also a people developer. We will dig into how to avoid reactive leadership habits that impede the strategic thinking and action-taking your team actually needs from you. And we will discuss how to communicate to create clarity instead of more.  This episode will open your eyes to leadership mistakes to avoid when you find yourself in the midst of constant change and uncertainty, and help you take an honest look at where middle-management pressure meets real leadership development. You'll walk away with a clearer sense of which trap is costing you the most right now and what to do about it before it costs you your best people.

In the wasteland, the most dangerous thing isn't always the player you can see; it's the one you can't. This week, Andy and Dave dive into the lethal world of DayZ traps. We break down the current meta for keeping your base secure and your enemies on their toes, from the high-explosive impact of a well-placed Claymore to the heart-stopping click of a hidden tripwire.We discuss the difference between mechanical traps and the "psychological" ones, like the classic loot dump designed to lure greedy survivors into a sniper's funnel, and the elaborate tourist traps that turn high-traffic landmarks into death zones. We also share our personal wishlist for the future of trapping—what mechanics are we still missing to truly turn Chernarus into a house of horrors?Whether you're a master of the landmine or someone who is tired of constantly checking every doorway for a wire, this episode covers the tactical and creative side of defensive (and offensive) play.Welcome to the essential channel for all things DayZ! We create content for anyone who loves the hardcore survival game, from fresh spawn newbies looking for a DayZ beginner guide to veteran players hungry for high-tier PVP, base building strategy, and insightful DayZ news and discussions on our DayZ podcast.Our two content pillars:

In this episode of the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, Michael Wienecke and Travis McGowin dive into the seasonal “explosion” of squirrel activity and the havoc these bold climbers wreak on local homes. From chewing through electrical wiring—which can lead to dangerous structure fires—to tearing into gable vents and rooflines, the team discusses the serious risks and requirements involved in a professional eviction. You will learn how simple landscaping mistakes like untrimmed crepe myrtles provide a “bridge” for rodents and the tactical logistics required to successfully trap and seal out these persistent unwanted guests. Podcast Transcript:Squirrels in the AtticMichael Wienecke: All right, so who wants something crawling around in their attic?Travis McGowin: I know personally I hate crawling around in my attic, so I don’t know why anything would want to live up there in the first place. But far be it from me to tell wildlife that they can’t go in my attic, right?Michael Wienecke: So we have seen just an influx of, uh, things in attics here recently and they’ve just been squirrels and I, uh, I mean it’s, it’s just been an explosion.Travis McGowin: Yeah, ’tis the season. Um, and, and I feel like it’s like this every single spring realistically right there into that transition from winter to spring, it’s like they’re just on the prowl looking for someone’s house to get into.Michael Wienecke: Or houses.Travis McGowin: Or houses, that’s right. That’s right.Michael Wienecke: Well, and what are they doing up there? Why are they tearing into gable vents and roofs and, and all, all kinds of places on people’s homes right now?Travis McGowin: I mean, they’re looking for a place to start a family.Michael Wienecke: They’re looking to move in rent free, huh?Travis McGowin: Absolutely. Absolutely. They’re looking for a place to go and, uh, and nest and, and reproduce and, you know, take over the world one, one litter of squirrels at a time.Michael Wienecke: I’ll tell you one thing that is crazy to me about squirrels all the squirrel jobs that we do, they are very bold. They’re just, they’ll just hang out with you in the attic while you’re looking for ’em or watching ’em. I mean we’ve got plenty of videos on that, but they just kind of hang out and some of ’em will run away but a lot of ’em are just bold and they’ll just watch you.Travis McGowin: I think sometimes they think that they can’t be seen. Like they’re camouflaged.Michael Wienecke: I always thought because they thought they owned the home. They’re like hey this is I’ve been here six months this is I’ve, you know, um, what do they call it squatter’s rights.Travis McGowin: So, in order for us to effectively remove squirrels from someone’s attic do we need to go get an eviction notice from from some, you know, county entity?Michael Wienecke: We do actually Travis it is, uh, it is the state license, the, the trapping license that we, that we have to get, uh, for the state. So yes, we do have to, we do have to do that.Travis McGowin: Right.Damage and Issues Caused by SquirrelsMichael Wienecke: Well, let’s talk about some of the damage that they do though. I mean, we have seen, I mean, we just did a really good video on one chewing right in the front of someone’s house and, and getting through the wood. Uh, I’ve seen a lot of chimney damage in the past, um, just a lot, a lot of damage on wires. I mean, it’s, it’s just something that you just don’t have to deal with. And it’s always where you can’t reach it and it’s always next to the power lines.Travis McGowin: Um, you know, I think the perfect, more appropriate place to start in terms of damage and issues that the squirrels cause is really to kind of go and lead off with access. So, uh, first of all squirrels are really good climbers.Michael Wienecke: Really, really good climbers.Travis McGowin: Absolutely. They can climb textured surfaces like Spiderman. I mean realistically if your house has any kind of veneer made out of brick on it, um, even some types of siding, especially, you know, wood siding, rough cut wood, stuff like that, I mean they can climb like no body’s business. They have no trouble, um, going back and forth. And if you, you know, are fortunate enough to have some sort of surface on the outside of your house that is not textured that they can’t climb, then, you know, the next thing is they’ll climb a tree that is close to the eaves or close to the roof of the structure and they’ll just jump back and forth if they need to or if, you know, if that’s touching the roof or the eaves then they’ll just climb right, you know, back and forth and then, you know, of course we also see ’em running up and down power lines, uh, cable lines, um, more specifically cable lines to a house and I mean so there’s just so so many routes that they can get and take for their house, you or for to get into your house I should say.Michael Wienecke: Oh definitely. I mean, I think a lot of people just deal with squirrels year to year like oh well they’re back or oh they’re, you know, stirring around again this time of year or before just because they think that there’s no way to get rid of them.Travis McGowin: Oh, but there is. You know, there certainly is. Um, but you know the problem too is not only is it the access but if a squirrel doesn’t have, you know, the ideal entry point figured out, they’ll just make one.Michael Wienecke: 100%. Well, I mean that goes, you know, to maintenance on the home making sure that, you know, I think we’ve talked about what is it a pound of, uh, a pound of cure gives an inch of pressure, pa-, prevention?Travis McGowin: Oh no. It’s an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Oh gosh. I’m going to get on a shirt so I can remember.Building Construction and DeteriorationTravis McGowin: But, you know, if they climb up the, the house or come across on a line or or, you know, enter the space of the house with a tree and you know there’s a small gap, I mean rodents constantly gnaw, they constantly chew on things. So if the, if the hole itself is not quite big enough, um, they’ll just make it larger. You know, they have no problem doing that. So whether it’s the hole near an eave or, you know, a vent, um, they’ll just, you know, make their own access sometimes if the access isn’t already there.Michael Wienecke: Well let’s talk about building construction too. I mean, you know, you’ve got unfortunately skip corners, um, I don’t know when code was to put drip edge. I, I thought it was around 2000 but, uh, I, I see a lot of 2000 homes that do not have drip edge. So I mean you just see a lot of things that were missed. I mean we, we did some homes over here in Chelsea, uh, over here off Inverness and Hoover and Birmingham, you know, it’s just missing flashing and they’re just slipping right on those cracks and crevices, uh, during the, uh, you know, uh, between the roofline to the flashing.Travis McGowin: Uh, well, and you know those houses too, some of them may not have necessarily started out with an issue in the area where the drip line, or excuse me, the drip edge was supposed to be installed. But what we see a lot of times is that over the course of the life of the house, you have the decking underneath the shingles starts to, whether it’s absorbing moisture, whether it’s, uh, you know, reacting to just constant heat from the sunlight, whatever it is it may be a little mixture of both. But it’ll start to bow up and what was a tiny gap that maybe wasn’t a rodent entry point, all of a sudden down the road becomes a rodent entry point because that wood starts to warp and, you know, and change its shape.Michael Wienecke: Well it happens all the time. I mean like we talk about with wildlife squirrel work, raccoon work, bat work, whatever it can be it’s it’s creating that puzzle piece that that’s no longer there.Hazards of Squirrels in AtticsTravis McGowin: Right. And so once they damage the exterior of your home to get in and they get into the attic, now what? What becomes the problem then? So now we’ve we’ve not only got a rodent that’s made entry into the home but what can they do in the attic that’s so detrimental to a house?Michael Wienecke: Uh, well a couple things. I mean they’re going to urinate in that house, they’re going to pee in the house, um, they’re going to gather insulation. We’ve seen it to where they’ve, you know, been scratching so hard that they’ve gone through the ceiling. Um, seen a few inside of a home, that’s pretty rare, so, uh, take that, take that for what it, what it’s worth. Um, but I have seen it. Uh, and then they’re going to start chewing on wires, you know, all the stuff that can cause house fires and then they’re going to cause the, the contamination that you’re having to breathe.Travis McGowin: Right. And you know fun fact for for individuals that may, that may not know this, but years ago and I hope this is not still a practice now, but years ago the sheathing inside of electrical wiring that would, when they were creating the Romex or creating the wiring for the houses, that sheathing lubricant to get the sheathing to go over the wires was essentially vegetable oil based or similar to vegetable oil based. So not only, you know, does does the wiring pose an ideal thing for the rodents to chew on to the wildlife to chew on, but now it tastes good. So now it’s like oh well let’s give ’em something to eat in the attic that’s going to, you know, potentially cause a structure fire.Case Study and Preventive MaintenanceMichael Wienecke: Well let’s talk about some do’s and don’ts. Yes, I would agree on that structure fire because we have seen some major, uh, chewing on the wires. I mean, I, I had a home out in Southlake and they were going to town right there. It’s always where the wires like bending at a little 90 degree right there in that bend. They just start chewing the mess out of it. So we actually had to get I believe an electrician up there to we got rid of the squirrels for ’em and, uh, first terra cotta roof I had ever done which was intimidating. Um, got the squirrel out anyway, um, they had a electrician come out and get all the wiring done but it it could have been a a big deal had he left it exposed.Travis McGowin: Right. I mean it’s, it’s just like you said from a waste standpoint from an animal waste standpoint to just, um, you know, a hazardous standpoint from the damage that they cause which can lead to structure fires or other issues like that. It’s just something that you don’t want in your attic. And and obviously one’s bad enough, but I mean as you’ve seen over the last week or two, I mean there’s cases where there can be a lot more than one in an in an attic.Michael Wienecke: I would rather have rats.Travis McGowin: Than squirrels?Michael Wienecke: I’d rather have rats. Definitely. I mean not not inside my like for me to have to do it inside my home or have to deal with I would rather deal with rats ’cause squirrels always go up high it’s just they’re just an inconvenience. Anyway let’s talk about some things that homeowners need to know like do’s and don’ts, um, you know size of the trap. Pretty important thing to talk about because I have I have gone on some pretty, uh, larger infestations and pretty hard to control problems where the customer’s just using way too small of a trap.Travis McGowin: Well you know we see that a lot in in any of our wildlife or rodent work that we do. Take take mice and rats for an example. If you’re trying to trap a rat with a mouse trap the rat’s not going to get caught they’re going to take the bait and they may, you know, set the trap off and there’s you’re never going to catch anything. And the story’s the same with with using a rat trap to try to catch a mouse. Um, you you have too large of a trap, there again, they’ll set it off, they won’t get caught, they’ll take your bait. And and I think that that holds true to a lot of different wildlife. An improper sized trap causes a problem, um, you there’s just too much room for error there. And then not only an improper sized trap but even maybe say a live trap that’s not stabilized. What what issue does that have?Proper Trapping and Tree MaintenanceMichael Wienecke: Right. And we talked about that in that video. You know squirrels aren’t just going to jump on something or any any animal really is not going to jump on something that’s kind of shaky, um, it’s going to feel it out and and squirrels are very cautious. They’re kind of like deer stop, look, stop, look, stop, look. I mean I couldn’t imagine the stress that is under one of those little guys just walking around in the in the daytime.Travis McGowin: Just existing.Michael Wienecke: Yes. Just existing. So they are, you know, that enjoy it but again they just they just wreak havoc in in homes and, uh, cause a lot issues. So let’s talk about some other things, um, you know, cutting the branches away from the home to where those guys have not not stopping them completely from getting on the roof but, uh, kind of giving them a little bit to think about. You know a a four foot jump to a ten foot jump is is a little bit more to think about, you know, in in size or in size.Travis McGowin: Yeah and I mean they’ll they will jump a long ways to get where it is they want to go. I don’t know if you’ve ever sat in the woods and just, you know, watched squirrels jump from tree limb to tree limb, but there’s some very gutsy moves going on there sometimes, um, you know you’re really intrigued by the fact that they were able to launch themselves through the tree to grab another limb in a different tree through the air and, um, but that rings true for your house if if your limbs are overhanging or if they’re touching, uh, the roof of the house the squirrels have no problem, no fear in using that as a bridge or a crosswalk to get to your home. They’re they’re going to do it. They’re going to use it and they’re not going to be fearful of it at all.Home Maintenance and Tree PlacementMichael Wienecke: Well and not to say that, you know, you need to go out and cut all these tree branches away I mean it’s definitely a good rule of thumb but again like that video we showed with the the chimney going up, I mean they’re still getting on the roof so the best course of action is going to be to seal up that home. Um, Travis has got the pound of, you know, pound of proof for for a lot of action. So I mean just getting making sure that you’ve got those entry points, you know, in that wintertime or even before summer looking around your house, you know, we’re all doing, uh, yard work looking around your house hey do I have rotten spots here, do I have this here. A lot of preventative maintenance, uh, goes a long way.Travis McGowin: Well one I see very frequently, uh, is crepe myrtles. Man, oh yes. People love ’em, they plant ’em right next to the house and then they do not manicure them properly and these things end up growing way up past the roofline and then a lot of times, um, they’ll be touching the eave and man we had someone with a significant significant rat infestation. It was a duplex and they literally had rats climbing up the trees that had just grown up against the side of the house and into the eaves and tore a hole in the eaves and man rats were going in and out between the two units at the duplex we caught over 50 rats. So squirrels are no different. They’re going to be opportunists. They’re going to climb those trees and if you’ve got a tree that has done some, you know, some damage by growing into the side of a structure, uh, they’re going to I mean they just made it easy for ’em, you know, you gave ’em access, uh, a way to climb up and you gave ’em access into into the roof immediately.Michael Wienecke: What do you think the price of a crepe myrtle to buy and and plant is?Travis McGowin: I have never priced one. The only thing that I have ever done is destroy one. Um, when we moved into the house we are in now there was one in the front yard, um, near the house and we cut it down. Um, so I have no earthly idea so enlighten me.Michael Wienecke: Well I just say that ’cause I had a customer one time she said that those crepe mort- crepe myrtles probably cost her more in the squirrel damage and squirrel activity shed than ever putting them in next right, you know, planting them next to her house.Travis McGowin: Oh absolutely. So I’m assuming what your customer was really kind of hinting at is that they weren’t worth owning were they?Michael Wienecke: I personally I mean they’re beautiful trees don’t get me wrong and my wife loves ’em but just don’t put ’em next to your house. Like we had one way in my old house we have one way in the backyard. It was beautiful it bloomed like purple or red I think something like that and she loved it but nothing nothing touching the house. 37 feet away.Travis McGowin: Uh, well that would be ideal but, you know, unfortunately most of the time that’s not possible. But realistically we like to say, you know, trim those branches back trim those trees back at least six or more feet away. That six foot mark is going to start to become a stretch for a squirrel. I’m not going to say that they wouldn’t try it, um, but no overhanging limbs over the roof of the house and, uh, try to get those things trimmed back away from eaves and the roofline at least six preferably preferably more. I would say eight to 10 feet would be even more ideal.Michael Wienecke: Look 10 feet, a 10 foot fall I think that squirrel would hit the roof and probably forget what he was trying trying to do after that, you know, it’s it’s a bit of a drop.Travis McGowin: I would. I would. But then again, you know, if you ever watch a squirrel try to cross the road and they, you know, they get out in the middle and then they hit panic mode they can’t decide if they want to go forwards or backwards, you know, I would question a 10 foot drop or a 10 foot jump but I don’t think they would. I don’t know it just, you know, it just depends on the level of craziness I guess from the squirrel.Michael Wienecke: Well it’s kind of like jumping off that rock at the lake, right? It’s like once you you’ve committed so you you have no other choice but go you know they just spread their arms and their they fly.Travis McGowin: Gravity takes its course.Lessons Learned in Squirrel RemovalMichael Wienecke: Exactly. Exactly. Um, let’s see what’s another what’s another thing that customers need to, you know, if they’re going to try to tackle this themselves what’s some other failures, um, over the years that we’ve kind of figured out. Wrong bait, um, bait is an important one, um, the style of bait, you know, if it if something’s not working you want to try something else. Don’t just stick to the same thing.Travis McGowin: Right, um, you know wrong trap size or style, wrong wrong bait, um, you know and don’t underestimate the intelligence of some of these animals. They didn’t survive and grow into vast numbers of populations like they have become, you know, by being stupid. So, um, so you know don’t don’t discount their intelligence in terms of, you know, you think oh I’m just going to go set this trap right here and they’re just going to wander into it. No, um, ideally ideally you want to put those traps in a known runway, um, where where the rodent is known to go where the wildlife’s known to go. Obviously, you know, if you had a Connibear trap or something like that you you could have multiple accesses into your house. I mean if you put it over an access or a hole where the rodent is not using that access well you’re not going to catch nothing. So, you know, you’ve got to put it where they’re going to be where they’re going to run, um, and don’t underestimate the fact that they may avoid it for a while. Case in point I had a live trap in an attic back in Montgomery a while back, this been a couple years ago and it took multiple days to catch the little guy. And eventually I did but it took multiple days and multiple adjustments before we were successful in in catching that gray squirrel.Michael Wienecke: Yeah it can take a lot of time. Um, another thing too I’ll say is that not like you said I’m glad you said that about the traps. So not just putting one trap up there sometimes you may need two traps sometimes you may need three traps. Um, another thing is that for the people that do not want to do it themselves how many traps do we have that for squirrels? How many different? How many diff- different traps?Travis McGowin: I I don’t I don’t even know.Michael Wienecke: We have one-way door traps, we have one door traps, we have two-door traps.Travis McGowin: I even have some that have openings on both sides.Michael Wienecke: Yeah, I was going to say then we have the runway door traps so we’re very ill- we’re very well equipped to deal with different situations inside the home or outside the home.Travis McGowin: Right, right, yeah there’s there’s all kinds, pick your poison I guess but, uh, there again sometimes you have to back up and punt, sometimes you have to try things, if something doesn’t work and you have to, you know, try a different style, try a different placement. Um, you know even sometimes you if you were to even put a game camera up there and watch what’s going on even sometimes you may come extremely close to catching one and there again we talked about trap stability and they get halfway into the trap and something’s not stable and then they just back out and leave and then they don’t want to touch it again and that’s, you know, it’s frustrating and it comes along with it so trial and error sometimes and learning to pivot and swap into something different is is kind of the norm with some of these, you know, wildlife jobs that we go on.

"The amount of times I've been and just for a brief moment you almost sort of lose track and forget ... and you're just looking at this marvel on a really good migration day and the number of birds... and it's absolutely incredible and then the next thing you know, all of a sudden, you'll hear the gunshots start."The massacre of migrating birds each spring and autumn around the Mediterranean is ecocide. It's done mostly for fun, status and selfies; sometimes for delicacies. Nightingales and passerines of all kinds, turtle doves, kestrels, hawks, raptors and even storks and flamingos are gunned down or lured and trapped with glued branches and cruel snares. One organisation, the Committee Against Bird Slaughter or CABS, is fighting this atrocity all over the Med. In this episode Ben Goldsmith is in conversation with Lloyd Scott about what they are doing to help save these birds. Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

In this episode of InContext with Michael Easley, Michael Easley talks with Mark Hopson about the growing cultural confusion facing the next generation—and why the gospel is the only message powerful enough to bring true freedom. Hopson leads Decision Point, a ministry that equips students to share the gospel boldly in their public schools. Drawing from his book Set Free, he explains how many young people today are being shaped by powerful cultural lies about identity, sexuality, truth, and purpose. But the gospel offers something culture never can: real freedom. Through powerful testimonies—including stories of people coming out of atheism, pornography, and sexual identity struggles—this conversation shows how Jesus not only forgives sin's penalty but also breaks sin's power. Key Topics Covered Cultural lies shaping the next generation -Why teenagers are facing unprecedented worldview confusion -The mission of Decision Point to equip students for evangelism -The story and purpose behind the book Set Free -How testimonies help people see the truth of the gospel -Freedom from sin's penalty and sin's power through Christ -The spiritual battle teenagers face in public schools -Cultural pressure around sexuality and identity -The importance of courage, truth, and compassion in evangelism -How churches and parents can equip students to stand firm in their faith -The hope of real transformation through the gospel Chapters 0:00 Introduction 2:30 Why Set Free Was Written 5:05 The Cultural Lies Shaping Teens Today 8:15 Is Atheism Losing Ground? 10:45 The Power of Testimony in Evangelism 13:10 The Destructive Reality of Pornography 18:20 Can Christians Be Enslaved to Sin? 22:30 Freedom From Sin's Power 26:45 The Cultural Explosion of Gender Ideology 31:40 What Christian Students Face in Public Schools 36:20 The Courage of Young Believers 40:05 What It Means to Be Truly Set Free 44:30 How to Fight Sin and Walk in Victory 47:15 The Hope of the Gospel 48:40 Final Encouragement for Parents and Churches Links Mentioned: Set Free by Mark Hopson Decision Point Watch the highlights and full version of this interview on our Youtube channel.

What if the limits you believe about your life… aren't actually true? In this episode of Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick, New York Times bestselling author Nir Eyal returns to unpack the core ideas behind his latest book, Beyond Belief. Known for Hooked and Indistractable, Nir now turns his focus to the deepest layer of human behavior, the beliefs that shape how we see reality itself. We explore why the brain operates as a prediction machine, how feelings can mislead us when mistaken for facts, and why overthinking often reinforces the very patterns we're trying to escape. Nir breaks down how many of our beliefs aren't actually ours—but inherited, rehearsed, and rarely questioned. Dr. JC introduces the concept of becoming a Free Thinker, someone willing to stay open, remain curious, and not be immediately attached to their beliefs—and together they examine both the power and the potential downside of that mindset. You'll also learn practical tools like Nir's third-person technique for interrupting negative thought loops, and how to begin rewriting the internal “software” that's quietly running your life. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or limited by your own thinking, this conversation will challenge you to ask a better question: Is this actually true… or is it just a belief I've never questioned? Watch until the end to learn a simple technique you can use immediately to break rumination and take control of your attention.

What You'll Learn The one stat that should drive every late-clock ISO decision  How NBA staffs use constraints to build decision-makers, not robots Why most teams fail at communication—and how to fix it Episode SummaryWhat actually decides late-clock possessions? And why do most teams break down when it matters most?Cavs Associate Head Coach Johnnie Bryant joins the show to unpack how elite teams think about decision-making, adaptability, and communication at the highest level.We start with constraint-based coaching and ecological design—how creating the right environments allows players to discover solutions, build instincts, and shape your system in real time.Defensively, Bryant flips the script: great teams don't rely on perfect execution—they prepare for when things go wrong. The edge comes from solving breakdowns, rotations, and chaos better than your opponent.In Start, Sub, or Sit, Bryant identifies off-the-dribble shooting as the most dangerous variable in isolation—because it forces defenses into difficult tradeoffs: stay home, force direction, or commit to a trap.Then, we close on culture—where Bryant explains why vulnerability is the hardest skill to build, and why without it, communication under pressure will always break down.Key Moments2:30 – Why constraints create better players 4:30 – Letting players shape your system 9:30 – Reading spacing vs forcing structure 13:20 – Defending chaos, not perfection 21:45 – Start, Sub, or Sit: ISO decisions 22:00 – The #1 ISO metric 23:30 – When to trap vs stay home 25:00 – The risk behind every double team 29:10 – Why teams struggle to communicate 33:00 – Training communication in practice 36:45 – Coaching personalities that actually stickTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 60 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Zach did everything he was supposed to do went to college, got the tech job, bought the house. Then one day he looked around and realized he couldn't fix a single thing without calling someone. That bothered him enough to start learning skills on the side while keeping his white collar career going. What started as picking up welding and hunting turned into serious research about what happened to trades in this country and why people treat that kind of work like it's beneath them. When he was eliminated his tech position after 12 years and his savings ran out after 11 months, those side skills kept him afloat. Trapping and taxidermy paid the bills until he landed another tech role. COVID sped up what he'd already figured out being completely dependent on everything working perfectly all the time is a bad bet. We talk about how schools systematically got rid of shop classes, why looking down on skilled work makes no sense, and how learning to handle things yourself changes what you think you're capable of.HighlightsHow realizing you can't handle basic problems in your own life pushes you to learn practical skills even while working a desk job.Why education policy changes over decades systematically removed shop classes and created the skilled worker shortage we're dealing with now.The confidence that comes from learning hands-on skills carries over into everything else you do, not just the specific task you learned.How many people are quietly interested in becoming more self-reliant but won't say it out loud because of what others might think.Why the idea that white collar jobs are secure and blue collar work is beneath people turned out to be completely backwards.Make sure to subscribe to Blue Collar BS where we explore how different generations approach work, leadership, and building careers in the trades.

How to Grow Your Turkey Population by Trapping Predators with Jared Lurk | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 464 In this episode of the 100% Wild Podcast, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellsvik are joined by Jared Lurk and Cody West to dive into the essential, yet often overlooked, world of nest predator management. While high-level habitat work is crucial, many landowners are finding that high numbers of raccoons, opossums, and skunks are the primary roadblocks to a thriving wild turkey population. The crew discusses why trapping is a "lost art" that needs to return to the modern hunter's repertoire, sharing how they managed to trap over 140 predators on a single farm to save their food plots. We break down the practical "how-to" of running a long-line trap system, from selecting the right traps to choosing the best baits like tuna, and cat food to outsmart these nest predators. The conversation also covers the tactical shift from trapping to thermal hunting for coyotes, explaining why modern technology makes predator control more efficient than ever. Whether you're trying to protect your corn yield from coons or looking to hear more gobbles this spring, this episode provides the ultimate field guide for creating a greater ecosystem. 00:00:00 – Intro: Getting rid of nuisance critters  00:02:10 – Why trapping is a "lost art" for the modern generation  00:05:30 – Identifying the Problem: High predator counts and zero turkeys  00:07:15 – Baiting Strategy: Using tuna, cat food, and fish oil  00:09:00 – Protecting Food Plots: How coons destroy your corn yield  00:10:40 – The Long Line: Managing 50+ traps on a busy schedule  00:12:40 – Trapping Hotspots: Field edges, hollow trees, and water structures  00:14:45 – Thermal Hunting: Why it out-performs trapping for coyotes  00:16:35 – Dog-Proof Traps: Why they are the best tool for the job  00:32:15 – Skunk Problems: Dealing with the spray after the shot  00:35:10 – Tick Myth-Busting: Do opossums actually eat more ticks than turkeys?  00:40:30 – Snapping Turtle Management: Cleaning out the farm pond  Join the Rack Pack Facebook Group :/ n73gskjt7bfb2ngc   Get ahead of your Game with DeerCast available on iOS and Android devices App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deerc...

This week we are joined by Chip Davis who is a serious turkey hunter and trapper. Chip's seen the positive results of trapping and how it has impacted the properties he hunts and he also explains what he has learned. We were a little surprised to learn what animal he thinks is responsible for more adult turkey deaths but hearing his explanation made perfect sense. He is actively involved in Turkeys for Tomorrow and explains some of their ongoing research. You'll learn a lot in this one as we dive into turkeys and trapping with a very knowledgeable guest. Listen, Learn and Enjoy.Send a text message to the show!

This conversation hits close to home. Christian Howes is Lewis's brother, and Lewis has shared many times what it was like visiting him behind bars as a young man, watching someone he loved trapped in a system designed to break people. Now Christian sits alongside Shaka Senghor, who spent 19 years in prison, including 7 in solitary confinement, to reveal a truth that will shake you: most people walking free are more imprisoned than they ever were. Through journaling, music, poetry, and confronting their deepest shame, both men discovered freedom inside concrete walls before they were physically released. You'll see how the prisons in your own mind, built from unhealed trauma and limiting beliefs, are keeping you from the life you want. Their journeys will show you how to identify what's truly holding you back and give you practical tools to break free, starting with the courage to name your pain and the wisdom to forgive without conditions.Watch & Learn More About Redemption TimeShaka's books:Writing My WrongsLetters to the Sons of SocietyHow to Be FreeIn this episode you will:Transform your relationship with failure by celebrating your victories instead of erasing them with negative self-talkMaster the practice of forgiveness without conditions to free yourself from the past and stop carrying resentmentUnlock the courage to pursue your purpose even when society tells you your past disqualifies you from greatnessDiscover how to identify and escape the hidden prisons built from shame, grief, and trauma that keep you trapped in repeating patternsLearn why gratitude and presence are your most powerful weapons against depression, anxiety, and feeling stuck in lifeFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1866For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Jason WilsonGabor MatéEric "ET" Thomas Get more from Lewis!
