We sat down together in Las Vegas for this one at the… well, we mostly just call it Cowboy Christmas, even if the official name is about thirty words long. We caught the team right in the middle of a crew changeover.In this episode, we shoot the breeze about:The vibe in Vegas and why foot traffic feels a little slower this year.Some interesting rumors and hopes regarding changes to gun laws and suppressor tax stamps.The great footwear debate: Looking cool in cowboy boots vs. actually being comfortable in zero-drop shoes.A special moment remembering Mike on his birthday. He’s always with us in spirit.Grab a drink and join us for a little downtime away from the show floor. Thanks for listening, folks!

On episode 175, we're hanging out with a couple of awesome guests who traveled a long way to be here: Ovidio Calvet from Mexico and Pablo (Las Cosas de Movilla) from Spain!Fresh off their visit from Blade Show West in Salt Lake City, the guys give us their take on the show, what the vibe was like, who showed up (and who didn't), and how it compares to the big show in Atlanta.We also dig into some really good stuff:-The Prototype A1 finally has a name, a TOPS collaboration designed by Ovidio himself. -What the knife laws and culture are like in Mexico and Spain versus the U.S.-The challenges of being a collector when new knives are dropping every week.It's a great conversation with friends from different parts of the knife world. Big thanks to Ovidio and Pablo for stopping by the shop and sharing their stories with us.

This week, we debate whether one of us is a superhuman eater or a complete liar after he describes a breakfast that defies the laws of physics. That spirals into a discussion on the cardinal sin of raising your own food: giving it a name.We also witness one of the most incredible self-destructions in sports history, breaking down a football game where a team did everything possible to lose. It’s a masterclass in snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. You gotta hear it to believe it.

He's back! Craig survived hernia surgery and is in the studio to tell us all about it. We get the full rundown on the recovery, which somehow leads to a deep dive into the terrifying reality of multi-day hiccups and what it actually means to get sedated.We also get into Leo's plan for a pretty badass tattoo, which kicks off a debate about tattoos in general. Of course, the conversation eventually spirals into the big questions, like whether you'd upload your consciousness into a robot and the ethics of simulated prison sentences.

We've got Clint and Chad in the studio with us, and we kick things off with the news about Craig's upcoming hernia surgery and how it's wrecking his hunting season. That discussion somehow takes a hard left turn into organ donation, government conspiracies, and a story about why one of us got barred from running for mayor.After that, we get lost in a full-on hunting rabbit hole (pun intended), talking everything from shotgun chokes to hunter orange requirements. The whole thing wraps up with a question we guarantee you’ve never thought to ask yourself: can an elk have Down syndrome? Yeah. We went there.It's one of those episodes where the conversation just goes everywhere. To our 3 listeners, thanks for sticking with us through the chaos!
