Dale Liversedge of Shed Cast On Tips for Shed Hunting Success, Trauma Kit Must-Haves, and Outdoor Life

#88: This week on Reckoning, I'm joined by Dale Liversedge — ER nurse, dad, husband, and host of the Shed Cast podcast. Dale shares how he got started in the outdoors, his early hunting and fishing memories, and how shed hunting grew from a passion into launching his own show.

We dive into shed hunting tips for beginners and seasoned hunters — including how to find more sheds consistently, and overcoming the pressure of crowded seasons. Plus, Dale breaks down what’s in his shed hunting backpack, including trauma kit essentials every outdoorsman should carry.

We also have some fun with a rapid-fire round covering favorite gear, snacks you refuse to share on the trail, dream shed hunts, and more.

Grab a seat around the fire — you’re going to love this conversation with Dale. WATCH IT HERE!
