In this episode, I join my friend Trevor Gibbs for a one-of-a-kind hunting adventure. We talk about the challenges of invasive hog populations, the cultural differences between Canadian and Texan hunting traditions, and the unique taste of wild game.\nThis isn’t your typical hunt. From using feeders and game cameras to conversations about firearms laws and the sheer scale of the hog problem in Texas, this episode offers a deep dive into a world many don’t get to see. We even explore Trevor’s plans to turn wild hog meat into his next big product for ManBar!\nSo, grab a seat in the blind with us, and let’s talk hogs, hunting, and the connection to the wild.
