EP 540: White Lies Antlers with Brad Faulstich

by

This week I sit down with Brad Faulstich avid outdoorsman and entrepreneur. Born into a dairy farm Brad didn’t grow up in a hunting family but when he was introduce it lit a fire in him. He knew pretty quick he needed to figure out a way to make a life where he could hunt more. Being a hard worker life has opened a number of doors for him and lead him down a path of project to project. I love this podcast and talking to Brad about his journey toward creating the life he wants.

EP 539: Bucks and Bears with High Country Dan

by

Dan Mayland hasn’t been on the podcast in a a couple years. Which is a shame because it was one of our more popular episodes. Dan in a Wyoming transplant but has been in Montana for 17 years now. LEO by weekday and mountain explorer by weekend, Dan is your everyday guy that just gets after it. In this podcast we talk about his 2021 deer experience hunting with his son and the successful year they had. Dan has been exploring eastern montana since before it was popular and we dive into some of the misconceptions that people say about the good ol’ days. We chat about the explosion of hunting pressure out east and how Dan tries to combat that. Dan is an avid bear hunter and we talk about some of his adventures and the upcoming season.

It is e-scouting season if you are a serious hunter now is the time to start scheming and planning for 2022. Getting a tag is the name of the game and before you ever apply you should be looking over that unit in onX to see what it looks like. If you can see any pockets where you might find that future wall hanger. On X is my go-to map for e-scouting and now with your elite membership you get access to not only all 50 states but you also get access to Top-rut draw odds and Huntin Fools e-mag  to help you find that tag that other people aren’t seeing. Upgrade your on X membership to Elite and get the whole e-scouting package.
Quick interruption to tell you that the Rich Life course is now live again. Back in December we ran a pilot course with 25 students and it was awesome. We launched multiple businesses and the feedback was outstanding. I think people were blown away. When I first had the idea to launch the course I didn’t know whether to make it about starting a side hustle or just about entrepreneurship. Through teach those first 25 students I have realized that this is a course about how to make time and money. So so many would be entrepreneurs start a project only to realize they only started a job and freedom to hunt as much as they want is nowhere to be seen. This course is about choosing the right ideas and or pivoting from the wrong ones. My entire life has been build around how do I create an income that allows me to go do the things I love. I have made a pile mistakes along the way and I want to teach people like me how to avoid those potholes. If you are a interested in changing your life sign up at therichoutdoors.net/course if you use code TRO it’ll save you $50 bucks and for the first 50 people to sign up I will give you access to our Slack channel that we are calling the Rich Ideas Lab where you will get access to tons of ideas and a community of entrepreneurs.

EP 538: Bitcoin Boom or Bust? with Craig Van Arsdale

by

It’s been a hot minute since Craig and I have done a Bitcoin podcast. Since we last talked about Bitcoin things have definitely changed a lot. Extreme highs, and now currently some big adjustment (January 2022).

THIS PODCAST IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

In this podcast Craig and I bounce all over. From answering some of the more basic questions we get to some of the speculative ideas of what could be the future this podcast bounces all over. Like with most things crypto this podcast will probably answer one question to every 2 questions it opens. We talk about The Bitcoin Standard and I would highly recommend this book if you are curious about why Bitcoin is important. It also will give you a big insight into currency as a whole and the history of currencies throughout the world.

If you guys like this content be sure to let us know. I would also recommend reaching out to Craig directly if you have follow up questions.

EP 537: Lime Disease and Grizzly Encounters with Justin Klement

by

Welcome to the podcast. This week I welcome Justin Klement to Montana area and we talk about his really cool new house build. Justin moved here from the PNW and decided to buy dirt and build his dream house himself. Building his remote shipping container home was quite the project and the fact that he did it through all the chaos last year is quite the feat. Justin is what we call an adult onset hunter but he is one that goes all in when he starts something new. Justin has now hunted all over the west and we talk about his struggles and lessons learned.

We also talk about his insane battle with lime disease, from misdiagnosis to crazy nervous system issues. Justin has had quite the battle with lime disease. We also talk about his 2021 trip to Wyoming and multiple grizzly encounters. To include but not limited to killing a bull 7 miles deep and having a sow and cub take some of his meat on the last trip in.

Back in December we ran a pilot course with 25 students and it was awesome. We launched multiple businesses and the feedback was outstanding. I think people were blown away. When I first had the idea to launch the course I didn’t know whether to make it about starting a side hustle or just about entrepreneurship.
