FFOD336 : Crossing the Line with Bart Adams

Send us Fan MailThis week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Lou Hill and Dr. Stacey P. Gill of WeHunt2 WeFish2. I first met these guys through our shared love of the outdoors and it didn’t take long to realize we had a whole lot more in common than hunting and fishing. We talk about how they found their way into the outdoors, why they’re so passionate about introducing others to it and what hunting and fishing have meant to their lives. They’re doing a great job of encouraging folks to get outside and experience everything God’s creation has to offer.I’ve always believed there’s room for everybody in the outdoors. The more people we can introduce to hunting, fishing, and conservation, the better off we’ll all be.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m visiting with Bart Adams, an attorney, prosecutor, former municipal judge and he also happens to be a turkey thug. We’re talking about how hunters can find themselves on the wrong side of the law. Sometimes it’s an honest mistake. Sometimes it’s poor judgment. And sometimes somebody knowingly crosses the line. Bart shares his perspective from years spent in the courtroom and public service. Good info to know before you head into the woods.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m talking about something that’s been on my mind for a while.. getting kids outside. It doesn’t have to be a hunting trip or a fishing trip. Sometimes it’s as simple as taking a walk in the woods or turning over rocks in a creek. (Or looking for a big, hairy Cryptid, if you know you know.)  As I look back on raising kids and watching my grandkids grow up some of my favorite memories started with one simple decision .. let’s go outside.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m joined by Mike Wiles, better known online as Ask Tractor Mike. Whether you own a compact tractor, an old farm tractor or you’re thinking about buying your first one.. this episode is full of practical advice.We cover tractor safety, common mistakes, implements, buying advice and a whole lot more. With so many of us spending time working our food plots, farms and hunting properties, I wanted to hear from someone who’s spent a lifetime around tractors. If you’ve ever climbed into the seat of a tractor (or plan to) this conversation is well worth your time. Thanks for listening! Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailSometimes I think we take ourselves (and our hunting and fishing) a little too seriously. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had the passion and been completely consumed by it. But if I had to rank my most precious outdoor memories.. I don’t think a single critter would make the top 50 list.I’ll admit, at my age my memory bank is pretty loaded, so I may have an unfair advantage. Most of those memories happened around a hunting or fishing trip, camp, or gathering, which speaks volumes all by itself. This week I’m taking a trip back through some of those memories, sharing the stories behind them and why they’ve stayed with me all these years. Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m joined by my longtime friend and blood brother, Ted Nugent, for one of the most candid conversations we’ve ever had. With Independence Day right around the corner, we talked about much more than hunting. Ted shares how his upbringing shaped the man he became, why he believes every one of us should strive to be an asset to our families, communities, and country, and the values that have guided him throughout his life.We also discuss his recent inductions into both the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame and the Michigan Outdoor Hall of Fame, what those honors mean to him, and why his greatest accomplishments have very little to do with awards.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most unique projects Mossy Oak has ever launched, Second Season. Back when the show first aired on the Golf Channel, the idea of blending golf and hunting audiences was anything but a sure thing. Looking back now, it seems obvious. Back then, it felt a little crazy. Somehow, through a lot of hard work and great people.. it all came together.This week I’m sharing the story behind the show, the people who made it happen, the challenges we faced, and why the crossover between golf and hunting was far more significant than most people realized. There are a few behind the scenes stories in here that I think you’ll enjoy.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailThis week’s episode is all about fathers. With Father’s Day upon us, we asked our listeners to share stories about the men who shaped their lives, and y’all delivered.Some of these stories are about great dads. Others are about grandfathers, mentors & coaches who stepped in when they were needed most. Some take place in deer camps and dove fields..  others have nothing to do with hunting at all. But every one of them reminds us how powerful a good man’s influence can be.Lauran and I read your stories and found ourselves laughing one minute and fighting back tears the next. This is one of the most heartfelt episodes we’ve ever done. To all the fathers, father figures and mentors out there.. thank you for the example you set. Happy Father’s Day.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us Fan MailLast week’s conversation about Alpha-Gal syndrome generated a lot of interest.. so we’re back with Part 2. Once again, I’m joined by Dr. David Allen, a healthcare professional who has personally lived with Alpha-Gal for more than two decades.In this episode, we dive deeper into the realities of living with Alpha-Gal, including common misconceptions, hidden triggers, long-term outlook, prevention strategies, and what every hunter and outdoor enthusiast should understand about tick-borne illnesses. We also discuss why cases continue to rise and what steps you can take to protect yourself and your family while enjoying the outdoors. If you spend any amount of time in the woods (or heck, outside) this is information worth knowing. Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411
