73 From Field To Stage With Farmer-Comedian Jim Smith
Saison 2 · Épisode 73
mercredi 19 novembre 2025 • Durée 55:17
The frost finally arrived, and with it a frank look at what winter really means for working countryside life. We open with frozen offices, hungry pheasants, and a social media landscape that keeps shifting under the boots of anyone who mentions fieldsports. Then we settle in at a Perthshire kitchen table with farmer and comedian Jim Smith to talk roots, resilience, and why a good laugh sometimes saves the day.
Jim’s story starts with bales, tatties, and Young Farmers’ stage nights, then leaps to five nerve-shredding minutes at The Stand and the improvisational chaos of Scott Squad. He explains how sketches turned into tours, how he retooled the farm to handle gigs, and why diversified work only sticks if it respects the seasons. We compare the soggy springs and scorched summers that define modern arable, the quiet power of long northern daylight, and the culture shift as estates consolidate, tenancies shrink, and small farms fight to keep a foothold.
We also go where Instagram rarely does: the money and the mind. Sheep margins, beef prices, supermarket strategies, and the hard math behind expensive kit get stripped back to the basics. Jim shares a plain-spoken take on mental health, spotlighting RSABI, Farm Strong, and the slow-burn stress of a job you can’t switch off. Along the way, we dig into provenance and food miles, the role of venison and game in everyday kitchens, and why teaching simple butchery skills can stop pheasants becoming landfill.
By the end, you’ll hear why farm humor travels—across borders and accents—because the truths are universal: weather swings, stubborn yows, and bills that don’t wait. If you care about real farming, rural culture, and stories that stick, this one’s for you. Listen, share with a friend who needs a warm, honest laugh, and leave a review to help more folks find the show.
72 German Hunter Nick Explains How Tradition, Data, And Thermal Tech Can Save Wildlife
Saison 2 · Épisode 72
jeudi 23 octobre 2025 • Durée 01:01:03
A sweltering rut, empty glens, and stalks that end at dusk set the scene for a conversation that goes far beyond weather woes. After a season where deer hid high and hill walkers crowded car parks at first light, we pivot to what really drives outcomes: honest numbers, smart tools, and hunters willing to share what they see. That’s where Nick comes in—a German hunter from a family nearly a century deep—bringing a grounded view on management, tradition, and why public trust depends on what we do when we’re not pulling the trigger.
We travel from Scotland’s hills to southern Germany’s crop edges and up to Austria’s 2,500-meter ridgelines, where tree stands are built by hand and 100-kilo stags take a team to get home. Nick explains how foxes, farming intensity, and hedgerows reshape small game; how fawn rescue won press and public support; and why roe in the Alps behave like restless sentries, not field grazers. In Africa, he breaks down the economics too few headlines cover: trophy fees funding anti-poaching, mandated meat for local communities, and quotas that turn wildlife from a poaching target into a renewable asset with real value.
Technology plays the quiet hero. From legal gray zones in Germany to full adoption in Austria, thermal optics reinvent night hunting. One-handed focus and improved rangefinding cut through fog and guesswork, letting us identify sounders cleanly and avoid orphaning piglets. The result isn’t just cleaner shots—it’s measurable change. Boar numbers fell so sharply after thermal adoption that Nick’s group scaled back pressure in forests to keep the population healthy, focusing only on field raiders. Along the way, venison demand rises among young buyers who want traceable food without industrial baggage, and a new wave of hunters enters—some seasoned by mentors, some needing them more than they realize.
The throughline is simple and urgent: better data, better choices. Whether it’s challenging “a million deer” narratives with hill counts and lowland reports, protesting policies that erase wildlife in the name of trees, or training dogs to recover what we start, this is hunting as stewardship—lived, measured, and shared. If that resonates, tap follow, share this with a friend who debates conservation, and leave a review with the one insight that changed your mind. Your feedback keeps thoughtful hunting stories in the spotlight.

57 Deerstalking Diaries: Capturing the Essence of the Wild
Saison 2 · Épisode 57
mercredi 19 février 2025 • Durée 01:41:24
Join Myself and Katherine between Christmas and New year on a number of stalks around aberdeenshire.
The journey starts at the target settling Katherine into the rifle. I think the nerves of the microphone didn't help. We stalk 4 different areas in each case they present different challenges. The weather on this weekend was incredible difficult, no wind and incredibly mild for the time of year.
Who is this podcast aimed at new stalkers or people interested in getting into stalking. Why do I say that because I am sure some experienced stalkers will have different ways of doing things.
