| 6/24/26 | ![]() Building the Next Generation with Joe Eppele | On this episode of Talk is Sheep, Kyle and Hana sit down with Joe Eppele, WSSBC Director, Chair of the Youth Committee, host of The Edge on Wild TV, former professional football player, and passionate advocate for hunting, conservation, and the next generation.Joe shares his story of growing up in Squamish, BC, where hunting, fishing, mushroom picking, family, hard work, and time outdoors shaped the foundation of his life. From there, the conversation follows Joe through college football at Washington State, a professional football career, an MBA, and eventually a path back home to British Columbia and into the outdoor industry.At the heart of this episode is youth, family, and the future of hunting. Joe talks about why introducing kids to the outdoors matters, how WSSBC’s youth initiatives and Half Curl Membership are helping build the next generation of conservationists, and why hunters need to be thoughtful, articulate, and intentional when communicating our values to the broader public.This is an honest, funny, and inspiring conversation about family, stewardship, communication, sacrifice, opportunity, and the responsibility we all share to keep wild sheep on the mountain for generations to come.Presented by: @sitkagearSponsored by: @wild_tv Supported by: @yeti @zeisshunting @frontiersmengear @onxhunt @stoneglacier @gunwerks @schnee_hunt @precision.optics | — | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | ![]() Colorado, Rewilding, and the Future of Hunting with Dan Gates | On this episode of Talk Is Sheep, Kyle Stelter is joined by guest co-host Jann Demaske, Chair of 1Campfire, for a powerful and timely conversation with Dan Gates, Executive Director of Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management.Colorado has become one of the front lines in the fight over hunting, wildlife management, ballot-box biology, predator management, and the future of science-based conservation. Dan has been at the centre of that fight, helping lead the successful opposition to Proposition 127 while continuing to advocate for hunting, fishing, trapping, agriculture, and responsible wildlife management.Kyle, Jann, and Dan dive into the rise of anti-hunting ballot initiatives, the dangers of rewilding and preservationist ideology, the lessons learned from wolf reintroduction, the importance of defending all legal methods of take, and why hunters, anglers, trappers, ranchers, conservation organizations, and non-hunting allies must stand together.The conversation also explores Colorado’s Initiative 302, the effort to establish a constitutional right to hunt and fish, and what hunters across North America can learn from Colorado’s fight.This is a must-listen episode for anyone who cares about hunting heritage, wildlife conservation, science-based management, and the future of our outdoor traditions.For more information and to support visit: www.savethehuntcolorado.com and www.savecoheritage.orgPresented by: @sitkagearSupported by:@yeti@zeisshunting@frontiersmengear@onxhunt@stoneglacier@wild_tv@schnee_hunt@precision.optics@gunwerks | — | ||||||
| 6/10/26 | ![]() Predators, Hounds, and a Life on the Track with Dan Lay | On this episode of Talk is Sheep, Hana sits down in 150 Mile House, British Columbia, with legendary predator control specialist, houndsman, trapper, and wildlife management professional Dan Lay.Dan brings a remarkable and hard-earned story to the podcast. Raised in a predator control family, he grew up around hounds, traplines, cougar complaints, livestock conflicts, and the realities of human-wildlife interaction in British Columbia. Over the course of his career, Dan has worked on grizzly, wolf, and cougar studies, responded to some of the most serious predator conflict files in the province, and built a line of working hounds known for their grit, intelligence, and ability to perform when the pressure is at its highest.This first episode begins with Dan’s early life, his struggles in school, his introduction to hounds, and the path that led him into government predator control work at a young age. From there, Hana and Dan dive into early cougar complaints on Vancouver Island, the politics of predator management, the pressure of responding to livestock and human safety concerns, and the deep trust required between a houndsman and his dogs.Dan also shares powerful stories from the field, including the role his dogs played in serious cougar conflict situations, the importance of genetics and instinct in working hounds, and the story of his first dog, Mike, and his first cougar hunt as a teenager.This is the first episode in what will become a multi-part series with Dan Lay. Future conversations will explore hound lineage, cougar behaviour, wolf trapping, grizzly work, predator-prey relationships, conservation, and the lessons learned from a lifetime spent working in wild places.This is a raw, honest, and deeply educational conversation about predators, working dogs, wildlife conflict, and the responsibility that comes with managing animals at the intersection of conservation, public safety, and rural life.Presented by: @sitkagearSupported by:@yeti@zeisshunting@frontiersmengear@onxhunt@stoneglacier@wild_tv@schnee_hunt@precision.optics@gunwerks | — | ||||||

| 1/14/26 | ![]() “Don’t Tell Me I Can’t” — A Stroke Survivor’s Return to the Wild with Thomas Giles | From a frosty morning in BC’s Cariboo, Hana Erikson sits down with a special guest Thomas Giles for a raw, powerful conversation about grit, wilderness, and what it takes to fight your way back. Thomas is a hardcore hunter and horseman—until life flips overnight. After pushing through a fly-in moose hunt with a broken shoulder, Thomas suffers a massive stroke at age 34 and has to relearn how to speak, walk, and rebuild his life from the ground up. He shares the moment it happened—alone at home—when his puppy Jesse instinctively braces him upright as his right side goes dead weight, buying precious time until help arrives. From ICU, to stroke ward, to rehab, Thomas describes a 55-day hospital stay and a mindset that refuses to quit—then the next battle: his stroke was triggered by a failing aortic valve, leading to open-heart surgery on November 25.And then comes the turning point: getting back on a horse—using a step ladder to mount—discovering the horse is literally helping him “feel” what his body can’t yet feel on his right side, and accelerating his recovery.This episode is equal parts heavy, hilarious, and inspiring—proof that the mountains don’t just test you… they can also help heal you.In this episodeA stroke survivor’s minute-by-minute account of fighting to get help, and the dog that wouldn’t let him go downThe medical “why”: heart murmur history, calcium to the brain, and the emergency chain that saved his life55 days in hospital and the stubborn, daily push to stand, walk, and speak againOpen-heart surgery and the long road back—then returning to hunting, horses, and the wildBack in the bush: a fly-in moose hunt redemption arc… and a grizzly at 19 yards Presented by: @sitkagearSupported by: @yeti @zeisshunting @frontiersmengear @onxhunt @stoneglacier @wild_tv @schnee_hunt @precision.optics @gunwerks | — | ||||||
