The Sporting Life Notebook Podcast

Durrell Smith

Discover how a visionary young man decided from an early age that his career would not be restricted by the established expectations of a society. Know how this decision led to the creation of The Sporting Life Notebook; the Georgia-based organization continuously engaging in a rich collection of sporting initiatives; all with the hopes of creating curiosity amongst unexplored, nontraditional markets and welcoming them to the outdoors. Understand how today, these newly arrived enthusiasts believe had it not been for The Sporting Life Notebooks' commitment to expose them to the invaluable experiences found in a sporting life, they may have never lived the outdoor activities they are devotedly engaging in today. By doing so, The Sporting Life Notebook is bringing new generations & participants to the industry. In turn, this new blood is enjoying activities they never knew possible, while bringing in fresh perspectives; perspectives ensuring our sporting traditions, wildlife, & habitat will be here tomorrow. And in the end, The Sporting Life Notebook's belief of never allowing deeply rooted stereotypes to dictate what one will become or enjoy, is inspiring thousands to learn more about & be part of, our outdoor community; a community whose richness will always be directly linked to the diversity found in its members, ideas, & opinions.

    TSLN S2E24 | The Notebook as a Repository Against Artificial Intelligence

    (This episode is straight from my voice memos) I work in tech. UX design, front-end, the whole thing, alongside my life with the dogs, the chickens, the kids, and the studio full of American Field magazines downstairs. Living at that crossroads showed me something: the same industry I build in is quietly erasing the things I love. Companies buying up physical books, scanning them, ripping the spines out so the knowledge only lives on their platforms. A bird dog going on point in a San Francisco park while everybody watching thinks the dog is "glitching out." So this episode is about a decision. The Sporting Life Notebook isn't going to be about chasing an audience — it's going to be a resource. A living archive. Real, tangible, human knowledge preserved on purpose, in a time when there's a very deliberate attack on our history, our traditions, and our connection to nature. I'm not running from technology. I'm using it to keep what's worth keeping. I get into the website rebuild, why I'm moving toward a field-notes format, what Solange's library model and the Lucasfilm archive have to do with any of this, and where my family fits — including the plan to travel the world in a few years and why the work has to be portable enough to come with us. New beginnings and continued traditions. That's the notebook. Read the full archive at thesportinglifenotebook.com. — D.S.
