Episode Description
In this episode, Elliott sits down with Blake Horton, co-host of the brand-new Winging It Waterfowl Podcast and a full-time firefighter. Blake shares his story growing up in Wheeler, Texas, where he started out hunting quail and pheasants with a German wirehair pointer, before moving into the world of waterfowl after joining the fire service in Southeast Texas. He talks about balancing podcasting with family life and long firehouse shifts, how he and his best friend Troy Miller finally launched their show after years of talking about it, and what hunting looks like now that he’s living in Louisiana. From upland hunts to chasing wood ducks in the Red River bottoms — and even the unique tradition of running dogs for deer — Blake’s story blends firefighting, friendship, and a lifelong passion for the outdoors.
