I've got a special episode today to celebrate launching into season 2. I interview John Smeraglio from the Deschutes Canyon Fly Shop, share a first time on the air fireside chat with Dave and friends.
I also share a short audio clip of a intense experience after a raft dumped in one of the larger rapids on the river and my process in helping them get to shore safely. This is the first time that we've had this type of show so enjoy.

Don't fall down or a pig will eat you (advice from Shannon) Here's a clip from the movie Snatch where the dude describes how a pig would do it.

I wanted to give a big thank you to you, John Smeraglio and my friends who were on the trip. As you can tell from the end of this episode, I always have a good time on the river hanging with my buds.
