The dog days of Summer are behind us and the band is back together. Season 2 of The Hunting Heritage Podcast is off and running with this Labor Day special where Lance and Noel catch up and look forward to an exciting Fall hunting season ahead. It's a new look but with the same great commentary!

This year will be much of the same with a well-rounded mix of general gab, the Rut Revival reports, and a whole lot of checking in with friends all around the country to hear about what got them into hunting in the first place: their Hunting Heritage!

Thank you so much for those who have been dedicated listeners. We hope to continue to entertain and bring joy to your life through the vehicle of hunting. After all, we're aiming to keep the hunt alive!

The Working Class Bowhunter Pod is widely known in the hunting world for genuine conversation and antics wrapped up with a whole lot of passion for hunting. The mastermind behind it all is this week's guest, Curt Geier, and that passion is on display big time.

Tune in as Lance and Noel dive in with Curt as he relives what got him into hunting, shared experiences with his dad, the fact that hunting is a catalyst for awesome relationships, and what he expects to leave as a legacy.

Episode 30 will be our season finale. For all who have followed along for the past year: THANK YOU!!!

We'll see you in August with Season 2!

The WCB Pod has so much going on. Tune in, buy merch, and show them some love:

After the hiatus to end all hiatuses (is that even a word?) we are back with the final installment of the Strut Revival miniseries.

This week, we have one of our most special guests ever: Whitney Cannon.

Whitney and the boys have a great time catching up on old times and hearing all about her turkey season that ranged from Tennessee to Oklahoma. She is a turkey hunting machine and is an even better person.

We talked about her recent experiences in the turkeywoods. You can watch them here:

You can also find her floating around Insta, Facebook, and TikTok...

If you enjoy the episode go ahead and give us a follow and a comment. If you don't like it, keep that junk to yourself. :)

If you want to know something about calling a wild turkey then you call Alex Rutledge. I think we're safe to say that "legendary" is a good descriptor of Alex when it comes to living the outdoor lifestyle. His keen sense of what's going on in the turkey woods and in the life of turkeys is second to none.

In this episode, Lance and Noel enjoy getting to know Alex as an impactful outdoorsman but also as a brother in Christ. You won't want to miss this!

Slade Johnston is the epitome of a Southern Outdoorsman and gentleman and he stopped by the Hunting Heritage Podcast to help us give a proper kickoff to the Strut Revival miniseries this Spring. In this conversation, we found our way out to Hawaii, back to Florida, into Mississippi and then on to Alabama!

One of the things that you can appreciate about Slade is his affinity for fellowship: turkey hunting is as much about the people as it is about the hunting. Enjoy hearing stories, tips, and tactics from one of the best to do it.

As always, listens, follows, comments, reviews, and shares are a major blessing to us! Thanks for listening!
