In addition to discussing research suggesting celebrity worship makes people dumber, Matt and Jim Durkin discuss the recent initiative to sell of public lands, an American express survey quantifying people's motivations for choosing travel destinations, DOGE cuts to fishing recruitment, and some ridiculous quotes by hunting promoters.

The future of hunting is imperiled.  More and more hunters are competing for limited numbers of licenses.  Public land hunting is overcrowded, and private land hunting is increasingly unavailable to those unable or unwilling to pay for it.  These are the dominant problems facing hunters today, and nobody in the hunting industry and hunting entertainment is talking about them.  That is because they cause and even benefit from these problems, as do some hunting nonprofits.  Join Matt Rinella and his guests as they rethink the future of hunting and implement steps to save our cherished pastime.  Visit huntquietly.org to learn more.
