We talk about cloud seeding, institutional media corruption, and why Gary refuses to vote to maintain his journalistic neutrality. This guy smokes in front of churches for a story and interviews actual N*zis - not because he's reckless, but because he's committed to showing you what's really happening out there.Gary breaks down why he'll never take money from someone who tells him what to say, how institutional media pushes agendas while pretending to report news, and why the mainstream media's denial of cloud seeding dangers is complete bullshit. We also get into cultural legacies of corruption, the breakdown of trust in society, and why both sides need to stop celebrating their political opponents' suffering.Raw. Unfiltered.

    Episode 23 - How a Hunting Magazine Got 100+ Brand Deals (with Tyler Sharp)

    Tyler Sharp is doing something most people in the hunting world said was impossible, creating content that appeals to both hunters and non-hunters without pissing anyone off.As the founder of Modern Huntsman magazine, Tyler's built something that looks more like a coffee table art book than a traditional hunting publication. And it's working. He's partnered with over 100 brands, converted vegetarian National Geographic photographers into advocates, and hosts wild game dinners in Dallas where urbanites who've never hunted show up just to try the food—and leave curious about the lifestyle.In this conversation, we dive into how he threads the needle on controversial topics like elephant hunting, why African villagers are more supportive of hunting than most Westerners realize, and what happens when an elephant goes down in the middle of the bush (spoiler: the "bush telegraph" brings hundreds of people out of nowhere).We also talk about his upcoming cookbook with Penguin Random House, his annual Scotland deer stalking trips, and why he thinks the future of hunting depends less on recruiting new hunters and more on changing how the other 85% of the world sees what we do.KEY TOPICS:- Threading the needle: Creating hunting content in the "purple zone"- How Modern Huntsman landed 100+ brand partnerships- The truth about elephant hunting and African communities- Why meat is more valuable than money in the bush- Converting vegetarian Nat Geo photographers- Wild game dinners as cultural bridges- Upcoming cookbook launch with Penguin Random House- Scotland deer stalking experiences and elk hunting tripsTIMESTAMPS:0:00 - National Geographic's identity crisis1:01 - How Tyler built Modern Huntsman2:15 - The art of diplomatic storytelling3:20 - Discussing controversial hunting topics7:02 - New hunter recruitment vs. positive PR9:12 - David Chancellor: From vegetarian to hunting advocate10:25 - Elephant hunting: The bush telegraph phenomenon17:49 - What motivates Tyler's mission20:15 - Wild food dinners: Converting non-hunters24:23 - What's next: Cookbook, Scotland, Colorado experiences27:30 - Photographic vs. hunting safaris: The environmental truthABOUT TYLER SHARP:Tyler Sharp is the founder and creative director of Modern Huntsman, a premium publication that bridges hunting culture with mainstream audiences through exceptional photography, long-form journalism, and thoughtful storytelling.FIND TYLER SHARP ON SOCIALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tylersharpphoto/X/Twitter: https://x.com/tylersharpphotoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylersharpphotoWeb: https://www.tylersharp.com/FIND MODERN HUNTSMAN ON SOCIALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/modernhuntsman/Web: https://modernhuntsman.com/FIND BRADY KNOWLTON ON SOCIALX/Twitter: https://x.com/vivamusverumTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bradys_most_interestingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradysmostinteresting/Subscribe for more conversations about hunting, conservation, and the intersection of tradition and modern culture.#Hunting #Conservation #ModernHuntsman #WildGame #Photography #TylerSharp #HuntingCulture #WildlifeManagement #Africa #Storytelling

    Episode 22 - The Wildlife Photographer Hunters Needed (With Tyler Sharp)

    This conversation with Tyler Sharp is one for the books.Tyler is the editor-in-chief of Modern Huntsman Magazine, and honestly one of the best storytellers and wildlife photographers I've ever met. But his path into the hunting world was anything but typical - he went from film school in LA (where his friends thought he was crazy for filming hunting) to living in the Tanzanian bush for five months, getting chased by everything with teeth.What makes Tyler special is that he didn't grow up hunting. He came into this world as an observer, asking hard questions about conservation, ethics, and how we communicate what hunting really is. That outsider perspective shaped how he approaches storytelling - not preaching to the choir, but actually trying to reach people who don't understand hunting's role in conservation.We also get into some wild stories from our travels together - including a close call in Pakistan during a terrorist attack, an hour alone in the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid, a boar hunt with drums and flutes, and me absolutely demolishing a glass wall at the Karachi airport while half-asleep.If you care about wildlife, conservation, or just want to hear some incredible adventure stories, this one's for you.This episode covers:- How Tyler went from LA film student to African safari photographer- Addressing misconceptions about hunting and conservation- The founding principles of Modern Huntsman Magazine- Communicating conservation to non-hunters- Wild adventures in Pakistan and Egypt- The importance of storytelling in the outdoor industryTimestamps00:00 - Introduction & Misconceptions About Hunting00:44 - Meet Tyler Sharp - Wildlife Photographer & Writer02:04 - Growing Up in Texas & Early Art Interests03:14 - USC Film School & Moving to Los Angeles04:28 - First Job: Tanzania Safari Opportunity05:35 - Five Months in the African Bush06:18 - Dallas Safari Club & Meeting Mentors07:13 - Traveling to 30 Countries in 3 Years08:00 - LA Friends' Hostile Reactions to Hunting09:03 - Observing the Good, Bad & Ugly of Hunting10:11 - Not Preaching to the Choir11:07 - Instant Karma Story - Confrontation at Dinner13:03 - Philosophy, Martial Arts & Disarming Debate14:05 - Communication Gaps in Conservation15:10 - How Information is Presented Matters16:15 - Journaling & Developing Writing Skills17:03 - Making Wisdom Accessible to Everyone18:02 - The Pakistan Adventure Begins (2009)19:39 - Sri Lankan Cricket Team Terror Attack20:35 - Getting Stopped at Gunpoint22:18 - Emergency Escape to Egypt23:02 - Hour Alone in the King's Chamber24:17 - Return to Pakistan - Expired Visas25:30 - Breaking the Glass Wall at Customs26:18 - "Inshallah" - A Compassionate Stranger26:52 - Driven Boar Hunt with Drums & Flutes28:12 - The Injured Hunter Story29:45 - Baluchistan - Royal Kingdom & Poacher Punishment#WildlifePhotography #Conservation #Hunting #ModernHuntsman #TylerSharp #OutdoorStories #Pakistan #Africa #ConservationThroughHunting Don't forget to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more!FIND TYLER SHARP ON SOCIALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tylersharpphoto/X/Twitter: https://x.com/tylersharpphotoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylersharpphotoWeb: https://www.tylersharp.com/FIND MODERN HUNTSMAN ON SOCIALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/modernhuntsman/Web: https://modernhuntsman.com/FIND BRADY KNOWLTON ON SOCIALX/Twitter: https://x.com/vivamusverumTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bradys_most_interestingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradysmostinteresting/

    Alan Dershowitz Breaks Silence on Epstein, O.J. & Trump

    Where do you even start with Alan Dershowitz? The guy’s been at the center of more world-shaking events than half the politicians in D.C., from the Cuban Missile Crisis to O.J. Simpson, from Trump’s impeachment to the battle for Nelson Mandela’s freedom. He’s defended presidents, celebrities, and yes, folks like me when the system comes knocking.In this interview, Alan lays it bare. We get into the wildest cases of his career, why he’s hated by both the left and the right, and how he manages to sleep at night knowing the truth about our justice system. He talks about fighting for dissidents against the Soviets, the insanity behind the Tyson trial, what really happened with Epstein, and why free speech and fair trials are on life support in America.We also go deep on cancel culture, media manipulation, Israel, and the uncomfortable reality: justice depends on where you stand, and sometimes who you know. Alan doesn’t dodge. He names names, calls out corruption, and doesn’t give a damn who gets mad.Want to know why the world’s most powerful people call Dersh when it hits the fan? Watch and find out. This isn’t just law, it’s a look inside the real machinery of power, influence, and survival in America.00:00:00 – Intro Defending Guilty People00:00:17 – O.J.
