Ep. 44 - Kurtis Blosser - Hunting Filmmaker, Editor, and Content Communicator How I've managed to have the best guests on Banecast is beyond me, but episode 44 continues the trend with hunter and hunting show filmmaker/editor, Kurtis Blosser.

Ep. 27 - The Grind - #You'reNotSpecial 10/14/2019

Ep. 27 - The Grind - #You'reNotSpecial We hear a lot about "the grind" or "the hustle", but it dawned on me that what we mean by those terms would have been nothing new to our forefathers. We talk about 12 and 14 hour days like we're something special. We're not. We talk about working from sunup to sundown and then some, as if we're a new breed of human. We're not. All that has happened is the old way has been resurrected and given a new name. Our great-great-grandfathers would of simply called it "work." /episode/index/show/banecast/id/11631428
