Gabby Hoffman is joined by outdoor industry juggernaut Jules McQueen of CarbonTV in this week’s episode. From CarbonTV’s leading role as an early adopter of the pivot from traditional TV to CTV and digital-first technology in the outdoor space, to Jules’ introduction to hunting as an 18 year old that was just curious about how it worked. Jules ventured out on her own in Missouri with a borrowed rifle and access she received from knocking on a door (before the advent of social media and the tools of today) and learned by making mistakes and calling people for advice, which sparked a passion that drove her to jump into the industry as fast as she could.  Get to know your host: https://gabriellahoffman.com  Learn more about Trout Stream Studios: https://www.troutstreamstudios.com  Subscribe to the substack here: https://gabriellahoffman.substack.com/  Find Jules on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/julesmcqueen/?hl=en  Get CarbonTV here: https://www.carbontv.com/  Learn more about your ad choices.
