From The Barbershop To The Wilderness

In this episode of the We Do This Too Outdoors podcast, we sit down with Brandon "Eazy" Thompson, a barber from Florida who is also an avid outdoorsman. Eazy discusses how he got into hunting and the outdoors about 10 years ago, around the same time he became a barber. He explains that becoming a barber allowed him the flexibility to pursue his passion for hunting, fishing, and other outdoor activities. Eazy shares some of his memorable experiences, like his first time hunting with his bird dog Odie and harvesting his first deer with a bow.As a Black man in the outdoors, Eazy has faced some challenges and discrimination, but he emphasizes the importance of having patience, determination, and a mentor to help get started. He advises young, inner-city kids interested in the outdoors to find a mentor who can show them the ropes and introduce them to the community. Overall, Eazy's story highlights his love for the outdoors and his mission to encourage more diversity in hunting, fishing, and other outdoor pursuits. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
