Camp Cast

Tonight on the podcast Jason goes solo as the rest of camp just got back from a social at Chippewa Ranch Camp. Jason spends some time recapping a very special ceremony out at The Way, teases some events that might be coming up this week, and apologizes profusely for not having campers on the pod today :). We'll of course be back with campers tomorrow. Enjoy.

On this episode of the Camp Cast we are doing double duty! We are joined by Cabin 16 legends Jack Boehnke, Judah Nitzkin, and Eli Thompson to discuss two action packed days of camp including clinics, dance night, King of the Camp swim and track meets, and much, much more. Then, we post a special, first time ever, play-by-play commentary of the Egg Drop hosted by professional announcer Andrew Blechman with color commentary from Marc Goodman. Enjoy!

Tonight we have our first LIVE episode of the summer. Jason plays sidekick to Andrew Blechman's professional commentary on Horse Racing Night 2026! We get a live look at the Senior Cabin (horses) and Cabins 3-5 (Jockeys) as they host one of our favorite events of the summer. Enjoy!

Welcome to our 99th summer at Camp Menominee and our 9th season of the Camp Cast. We are SO excited to be back with our daily podcasts talking all things Camp. Today on the show, as is tradition on the first night, we are joined by the CITs. We chat about the trip up to camp, our first day activities, what they are looking forward to the most this summer, offer advice for first year campers and parents...and a bunch of nonsense in the middle. Thanks for listening, and enjoy!

Today on the Camp Cast we welcome Jake Herman! Jake is a former camper, CIT, counselor, megaphone editor, program director and now famously the voice of the 2022 16A walk off victory! Jake is now in the sports media industry joining a legacy of CM alumni in the same field. We talk all about Jakes time at camp, give him time to defend his age group, and get into some great stories from his time at CM. Jake came prepared! Enjoy.

For this milestone episode of The Camp Cast, Jason sits down the man, the myth the legend, Woody — a stalwart of the CM community since 1987. Over the years, Woody has worn just about every hat at camp, working under three different owners and witnessing firsthand how Menominee has grown and evolved. In this candid conversation recorded at camp after everything was closed down for the summer, Woody shares stories from his days as a counselor, the wild and unforgettable moments that shaped his journey, and why he keeps coming back summer after summer. Of course, they also dive into all of your favorite Woody-isms, and classic Woody moments. We hope you enjoy this chance to celebrate Episode 300 with the wisdom, laughs, and legacy of Woody.

On this solo episode of The Camp Cast, Jason closes the book on the unforgettable summer of 2025. With camp now wrapped up, he shares some reflections on what life has looked like since the season ended and gives an update on early buzz around enrollment for 2026. But the heart of this episode is a personal tribute to Thomas C. and Pamela Adler, two beloved figures in the camping world, as they announce their retirement. Jason honors their impact, their legacy, and the ways they’ve shaped generations of campers and camp leaders. Enjoy!---Check out the Campfire Invitational Golf Outing page for more information on playing, sponsoring, and more for our 4th Annual golf outing supporting the Nate Wasserman Camp Fund.

It is a perfect evening for softball and we are LIVE on the Bob Bender Senior Diamond announcing the Senior TLL Championship game. Jason is back with professional broadcaster Andrew Blechman (and a number of special guests including Chef Loren Rue). we live broadcast the Senior game between Mutnick's team and Lieberman's Team and give updates on the Intermediate Championship game between Judah Nitzkin's Team and Reid Parks' Team. Enjoy!

It's the annual cousin-cast! Tonight we have on the Rosenthal/Gordon family to recap a wild Camper/Counselor Switch Day, catch up on Green & White, revisit some competition stories, throw some hot takes out there, and much more. Enjoy!

Hey GreenNation! We are back with a full detailed recap of our competition with Camp Kawaga. Unfortunately Menominee did not come out on top, losing 38-35. To recap the entire thing we bring on some of our best counselors and coaches Charlie Eisenberg, Daniel Shamah, and (later in the episode ) Chase Kaplan. At the end we also give a Green & White update, talk about the sing, and some other nonsense. Enjoy.

On this VERY special 2 part episode, we start in 2025 and recap the first 3 events of our big competition with Camp Kawaga, 11U, 13U, and 16U Tennis! We had three intense tennis meets today and to recap it all we bring on three studs, Carter Parks, Reid Parks, and Max Weiss. Then in Part 2, we travel ALL the way back to 2018, and revisit a conversation Jason had with CM veteran legends Justin Schoeneman, Taylor Beauseigneur, Jonah Weiss, and Andrew Blechman. This pod was recorded in Season 1 of the Camp Cast, but focuses on the significance of the competition itself. We talked about the all of the life lessons our boys take away from these intense days at camp, how important it is to compete as Team Menominee once each summer, what this event means to the Menominee Family each year, and share some personal competition stories. Hoping new families will enjoy this look at the competition from a different perspective, and returning families will enjoy the nostalgia in listening to some of our favorite guests. Go Menominee...Beat Kawaga!

On this episode of the podcast we keep it positive with best friends Abner Nasatir and Beau Coleman. The boys help recap a great day of camp, and give each other a ton of compliments on the way! They also turn the tables on Jason and end up asking him more questions than he asked them. Enjoy.
