Full of honest and informative conversations, along with occasional audio-adventures captured in the field—This part-Brit part-South-African from America and his guests explore subjects around hunting, fishing, foraging, tracking, homesteading, conservation and environmental adaptation. It’s a podcast for people keen to see the natural world thrive. And an all out owl-hooting celebration of the skills and traditions that got us here today.

EP45: Living to tell the story ↣ Dennis McKiver
In this episode Dennis McKiver, retired Pararescue specialist and fish and game warden continues more wild stories along with a bunch of useful survival tips that might just help you save your own skin. (Check EP38 for the first half of this chat)
This podcast goes live on Veterans Day, one day after Memorial Day over in the United Kingdom and many other countries too — Thank you Dennis, and all veterans who have served and sacrificed for their country.
Given the medical nature of this episode it seems wise to also note that this is the opinion of one highly trained life-saving ex-military life-saving human... and listeners should always take time to get officially educated on the best emergency practices for each situation.
