What would our ancestors think of fly fishing?

from Remembering I'm an Animal · host Billy Baker and Jody Simoes

Is fly fishing the highest form of fishing? Or is it just a bunch of self-indulgent bullshit designed to make “catching a fish as difficult as possible?” And is this all Brad Pitt’s fault for looking so damn hot in “A River Runs Through It?”  These are the questions Billy has been wrestling with during his failed attempts to actually catch a damn fish on a fly, so to help unravel the riddle he spends a day fishing with Tom Rosenbauer, the "chief enthusiast" for Orvis and perhaps the most famous fly fisherman in America.Also in this episode, Jody answers the question of what simple thing he could change in his life that he should change; the "Remembering I'm an Animal" t-shirt line is launched, courtesy of a listener; Billy goes on a rant about the condescending new terms "bromeotherapy" and "bromeopathic": the five types of hobbies you need; the magic of the pre-dawn "creator's time,” brahmamuhurta; and whether or not Jody should walk the greasy pole at the St. Peter's Fiesta in Gloucester.Plus more testicle tanning, and Jody's contention that Billy needs to stop reading a table of contents at the top of the show because people read it here. But is anyone reading this? Hello?
