Disappointed in the hunting episode, not for the reasons you think
I love the podcast. However, I was very disappointed in the hunting episode where you spoke very demeaning of “rednecks who dump corn and sit in a tree and kill a deer with a huge weapon.” (I am paraphrasing a bit). Not everyone has the time or the means to participate in these hunting practices that you speak of. My family hunts every year for meat. Yes, we use corn and shoot the deer from a stand, with rifles. But we thank God and the deer, process it ourselves, and feel so thankful throughout the year when we eat it. As far as the pig hunting from helicopters. Please research how much of an exponential problem wild pigs are in Texas and Oklahoma. Hunting them one by one would make it absolutely impossible to control the population. Even with the helicopters, the numbers are insane and uncontrollable which is terrible for the pigs and many other types of animals. I understand that there are some people who hunt only for the trophy, and do just sit on their phones, drinking a beer, not thinking about the significance of what they are doing when they kill an animal. So yes, I understand what you are saying to an extent, but please see another side to this for us normal folks.
