The Sporting Life Notebook Podcast

Durrell Smith

Booking Overview

Credible pitches include practical hunting experts, firearms instructors, conservationists, outdoor-access advocates, and representatives of underrepresented hunting communities; booking difficulty is likely low because the show favors accessible practitioners over highly prominent public figures.
