The Future of Hunting

Episode 75

Raised in the Alaska Bush

   “Hard work, low pay.” So read a classified ad that Phil’s dad handed him years ago. Phil somehow passed the interview process and found himself employed as a packer on the Alaska Peninsula. There he met our guest, Tia Shoemaker for the first time. Tia joins us to talk about growing up in Bush Alaska, twice-yearly trips to the grocery store, jammed rifles, smoking airplane engines, thoughts on pink camo and three clean jokes.  

 A conversation about the future of hunting, politics thereof and whether eyeliner belongs in the field.
