The ribeye in the sky John Odell

Hunting the Ribeye in the Sky with John Odell
Show Notes:
 
John Odell joins me to chat about hunting the ribeye in the sky, also known as the sandhill crane. I drew a tag for the first time this year, so selfishly, I want to find out all about it. John was a wildlife biologist for Arizona Game and Fish for 17 years. He worked in the small game program, and last year, he felt a calling to leave the department to move to Buenos Aires, Argentina, for about eight months. There, he learned some Spanish and spent some time at a culinary school.
 
John’s back in the States now, and he’s currently cooking at the El Tovar restaurant in the Grand Canyon. Hunting and food go hand in hand, and now John gets to explore both of his passions. John and I get into the history of the culinary world of wild game, and he shares some of his experiences from around the world. We also talk about the history of conservation in America and people’s perspectives on hunting today.
 
Next, we get into sandhill crane hunting. They’re the oldest bird in the fossil record that’s remained unchanged, and they're really a sight to see. John runs through some of their stats, characteristics, and behavioral traits and shares a little about how the species has changed over time. John also shares hunting tips, including which type of sandhill crane is best to eat, insights into how these birds move around, the best hunting tactics, decoys and calls, and more. 
 
What’s Inside:
 
A chat about wild game culinary and conservation history
Characteristics and behavioral traits of sandhill cranes
John’s go-to calls for sandhill crane hunting

Turning Feral with Zach Hanson

Turning Feral with Zach Hanson
Show Notes:
 
Zach Hanson joins me to chat about his book Turning Feral as well as his journey from a career in AI tech to hunting. He’s currently gearing up for trapping season, which is his big push every year. We start by talking about our plans for the early season and why we’re looking forward to the later season. In hunting, we know things don’t always go our way, and we chat about how our failures make us appreciate our successes a whole lot more.
 
Zach’s first hunting teacher was YouTube, as he didn’t have anyone close to him in the sport. He then learned about hunting from his in-laws, and he got some education down in Tennessee. Once he got out west, he realized it was a different ball game, and he took advantage of some guidance out there. Zach shares how his interest in hunting started from an interest in food. After his divorce, he went all in on hunting and moved out to Idaho, where he now calls home with his new wife and their children.
 
Zach and I talk about how his experience with sports helped him cultivate a mindset that’s perfect for hunting. We both share some stories about how we got ourselves out of a jam and how that made us feel a sense of achievement and resilience. We also discuss some of the stories included in Turning Feral, Zach’s plans for his software company for outfitters, and much more. 
What’s Inside:
 
How Zach moved from the world of AI into hunting
A sneak peek into Zach’s book, Turning Feral
Insights into Zach’s new software company for outfitters
