EP. 469: Authenticity In Hunting | Tony Peterson

December 3, 2025 • 100 mins
Today’s episode is one of those conversations that feels more like sitting around a tailgate after a long hunt than recording a podcast. Tony and I get into all the stuff most folks don’t ever say out loud—the weird mix of privilege and pressure in modern hunting, what ‘authenticity’ even means anymore when everything online looks perfect, and how easy it is to forget what actually matters in this whole deal. We swap some stories a...

EP. 468: Everyday Carry Hunting Gear

November 26, 2025 • 56 mins
In this one, we’re talking gear. Not a gear breakdown that’s chalked full of “here’s the free gear I received that I’m obligated to tell you about”…there are plenty of people who do those. I’m going to focus on …you know…things I actually use. With a heavy focus on stuff I keep in my truck as everyday carry for hunting season or just general preparedness. Lots of deals for the holiday season, so I figured I may be using something y...

EP. 467: Five Yards From Success | The Hunt That Tested Everything

November 19, 2025 • 58 mins
In this one, I walk you through a hunt that didn’t go the way I drew it up on the map. I lost access to ground overnight, the weather shut deer movement down, and I spent most of the trip bouncing around trying to find doe groups and make something happen with a longbow. It was frustrating, humbling, and honestly exactly the kind of hunt that teaches you more than a filled tag ever will. If you’ve had a season where nothing comes e...

    Are You A Charlotte?

    Are You A Charlotte?

    In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
