Charlie Jacoby: Might Hunters and Hawkers be a Protected Group Under the Equality Act? [6 min Listen] 6:04

21d ago6:04

6:04

You may have seen the story: the 2010 Equality Act could protect people who hunt. Here’s how it could play. An interview at the Carter Jonas Game Fair Theatre has led to column inches and TV debates.

8:14

The life of a huntsman can sound idyllic – but life in kennels is tougher than it might look For many a young thruster, or a hound-loving puppy walker, being a huntsman is the ultimate dream job.

We pay a high price for the privilege of getting lost in the back country - but is it worth it?

It was necessary to get where we were going and leave e…

24d ago30:06

30:06

In today's increasingly urbanised and digital society, young people are more disconnected from nature and the countryside than ever before.

21:27

What does a country boy and angler do on holiday when he’s left his rods at home and is reading a book by Hunter S.Thompson? The answer is to reflect on really unimportant things in life, like why are cricket and fishing actually the same. Shit it’s hot. It’s 35 degrees out there, the sand burns the skin off the bottom of my feet, and I could do wi…

Pete McLeod: Ghillies vs Fishing Guides - Deciphering Roles [9 min listen] 8:57

As a fishing agent, I'm often asked what the difference is between a ghillie and a fishing guide. While the two roles are similar, there are important differences. When out fishing it is often common to have a ghillie or a guide available to aid you in your adventure. The differences between the terms “ghillie” and a “guide” can sometimes cause con…

Ian Coghill: Rewilding - a Great Tool but a Dangerous Religion [20 min listen] 20:22

20:22

Rewilding is swiftly becoming a religion - a belief system with little evidence to support its claims - but is this a sane way to manage our landscapes? Re-wilding is a very clever idea. It is very difficult to be against re-wilding. It would be a bit like being against nostalgia. It has a vague warmth about it. It has no downside because whatever …

Sam Carlisle - From First Fish to Global Conflict: What's Really Changed in 30 Years of Salmon Conservation?? 7:19

1M ago7:19

7:19

Finding a copy of Trout & Salmon from 1994 shows that we’re still talking about the same environmental, and geopolitical, issues three decades on. A wormy start “Look what I’ve found Papa!” I held up an oozing earthworm, my hands blackened by Hebridrean peat. The year was 1994, I was five years old, and we were on a family holiday to the Isle of Le…

Show Notes Today I thought I might explore a few thoughts I have wrestled with recently about discovering God in a fresh and ever more realistic fashion.
