Man, this one’s special. Doug Champion is back on the show for round two, and honestly, this is exactly why I love doing this podcast — you meet someone, you have a great conversation, and a year later you’re picking right back up like no time passed at all. If you don’t know Doug, he’s […]

Quiet, Light, Controllable: Inside Tenet’s No-Compromise Suppressor
Dude, this episode hit different. I sat down with Jacob Albaugh Tenet, founder of Tenet Products, and what started as a guy from Ohio racing four-wheelers turned into one of the wildest entrepreneurial grinds I’ve heard on this podcast — and that’s saying something. Jacob was a national champion ATV racer before he ever picked […]
Mules, Mountains & a Collapsed Lung: Justin Helvik on Going All In
There’s a certain type of person who can’t half-ass anything.

Earned Not Given | Connor Koch on Risk Tolerance, Resilience, and the Road to Becoming a Hunter
EP 681: Connor KochSome episodes just take a minute to get right. We lost the first version of this one — somewhere out there is an SD card with what I’m sure was a hell of a conversation — and you know what? Maybe that was the universe telling us to go again. Because this […]
Trail Cams, Habitat IQ, and Building Tactacam: Conversation with Jeff Peel
EP 680: Jeff Peel | TactacamWhat does it actually take to build something from nothing in the hunting industry? Not the polished version — the real one. The trailer-hooked-to-the-back-of-a-Buick-Enclave, sell-your-house, answer-customer-service-calls-at-4AM version. That’s exactly what Jeff of Tactacam pulls back the curtain on in this episode, and man, it’s one of the more refreshing conversations […]
From Mugshots to $300M: The Logan Chierotti Story
EP 679: Logan Chierotti Alright, let’s be real — most supplement companies are just slapping a label on a generic capsule and calling it a day. Logan Chierotti didn’t do that. The guy bootstrapped Physician’s Choice from nothing — literally from the ashes of a failed energy mint company and a basement mugshot removal hustle […]
