Conversations 2.10: Jerod Newman

This week, we’re joined by Jerod Newman of Doyle’s Farm Kennels, the premier retriever trainer in Florida. He gives us a broad overview of the world he exists in, from bumper colors to e-collars, force fetch, hunt tests, and how answering an ad in the Orlando Sentinel changed his life.

Conversations 2.9: Danielle Kirkland, FWC Invasive Plant Management
Chances are, if you’re listening to an outdoors podcast, you’ve heard some mention of the topic of Spraying. We toss around binary concepts – stop spraying, ban chemicals, poison . . . In this week’s conversation, we take a measured approach with an expert on the subject, FWC’s Danielle Kirkland, a leader in the state’s Invasive Plant Management Team. We go into detail on why spraying occurs, why natives matter, why managing invasives needs to continue, how herbicides are approved for usage, the creation of muck, lake levels, and pay to spray – plus why Danielle does what she does . . . You do not want to miss this…

Conversations #2.5: John Cooper
Where are all the ducks? Spend any time on any waterfowl page or forum or boat ramp and this is a topic that will inevitably come up – are there less ducks? Is the migration changing?

John is a Vietnam Veteran, a 20+ year USFWS officer, a South Dakota Cabinet Secretary, a Commissioner, one time head of AFWA, a DU volunteer, and more.
