This podcast is one of those that came out of left field. A connection from a past podcast guest, and an invitation to podcast about an industry that if you looked at from the outside looking in, in a place like Scotland, one may think it's an industry that is not compatible with wildlife and sustainable use conservation. Stefan Rijnbeek, an expert on forestry initiatives and how they’re tied intimately to conservation efforts in the UK, spends the better part of an hour schooling Robbie on the complexities of forestry in the UK and Scotland in particular. As a reminder the opinions of Stefan in this podcast are his own, they are not born from hard evidence, nor represent the stance, policy, or opinions of his employer.

Ep 616Episode 616 - Charles x James x Robbie || Kill vs. Harvest

Arguably the biggest fight (and let's be honest there are a lot of fights) within the hunting community is the use of euphemistic terms to potentially lessen the impacts of words. The biggest euphemism utilized is using harvest vs. kill. Is it truly a cop-out? Should we be changing our language depending on the audience we are talking to? Are we apologizing for being hunters and what we do when we change terms? Charles Whitwam from HOWL for Wildlife, James Nash from the 6 Ranch Podcast, and Robbie get together on this podcast to have a very frank and open discussion about this. This is definitely a thought provoking podcast that will make you think and outlines the perspectives on both sides of this eternal debate.

Jo Barrett, master chef, master pie maker, now a hunter herself, and one of the partners at Discover Wild Foods, who are taking wild venison and crafting it into incredible dishes—well, in Jo's case, incredible pies. It was by pure coincidence that Robbie was standing in line for a wild pie and saw Jo—and as is the common phenomenon around social media—they both met for the first time and managed to connect.
