This episode is a conversation with my good friends and fellow outdoorsmen Caleb and Dylan. Both of them spend a lot of their free time either hunting, fishing, foraging, or all of them together. They are also grad students at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, where they are studying with, and learning from, world-class mycologists. Needless to say, being a conscious participant in nature is their greatest passion.
