    Episode 571 - Leland Brown || To Lead Or Not To Lead - What Bullet Is Best?
    Jun 26 2025
    Leland Brown is a PhD student who has worked for some time on the idea of lead-free ammunition. Leland and Robbie cover the start of the lead-free controversy, addressing myths about lead-free ammunition (from efficacy, ballistics, terminal efficient, etc) and sets the tone for Leland’s PhD research. There is always significant controversy when one starts talking about lead free ammunition - specifically as it pertains to reducing hunting opportunities and it always comes down to availability and efficacy. Robbie and Leland talk about it all. Get to know the guest: https://www.trcp.org/2025/03/27/in-the-arena-leland-brown/ Do you have questions we can answer?

    Episode 570 - North American Pronghorn Foundation || A New Nonprofit
    Jun 24 2025
    Robbie sits down with some of the board members of the newly birthed North American Pronghorn Foundation, one of the newest nonprofits in the conservation space! America is the bastion of species-specific foundations like this that dive deep into the conservation of one or another much loved and iconic species from Ducks Unlimited to NWTF to all the deer foundations and beyond - but with 14 states with pronghorn populations and only two with positive increases in those populations - this group couldn’t have come at a more important time.
