What this episode covers

America Unwon’s Keeley Covello makes her return to the show this week. If you aren’t familiar with her work, think underdog Western journalist who is looking out for rural America. The lifelong Californian has lots of hot opinions on a myriad of topics that we’ll dive into. Highlights from the conversation include: * Trump Administration revokes American Prairie’s bison grazing permits. Is this good or bad? * Historically, what is public land intended for and who must benefit? * How can American cattle ranchers compete with the deep pockets of privately funded groups like American Prairie? * The reality of bison vs cattle as far as impact on the landscape * Green Decoy groups like BHA backing the bison * Gavin Newsom for president, what does a Californian think of his leadership? * Maude Family update (conversation from our previous discussion) * Predators on a pedestal * Motherhood
