Episode 63: Kent Carnie

His age is a big part of what makes this episode so special as it gives us a rare glimpse into early American falconry, and a career in falconry beginning before most listening to this episode were even born.

Episode 62: John Goodell

When we consider falconry, we think of great adventures pursuing wild game with trained birds of prey. But we also think of its rich history, we think of conservation, the arts, biology, and so many other facets of a sport that encompasses but also transcends the mere act of chasing quarry… And in this episode, John Goodell brings us through his career as a biologist, conservationist, falconer, museum curator, and now Curator for the Archives of Falconry… So much of everything we love as falconers, in one conversation with one great guy.

Al Ross

Al Ross, warmly known as "Mr. Merlin" amongst his peers, has long been a pioneer in the sport of falconry. Growing up without the knowledge or access to information later falconers would enjoy, he discovered and learned much of what he's now recognized for developing, almost entirely from studying the raptors in the wild themselves. From being the first to make a game hawk out of a Harris's Hawk, to "outer-mewing" Merlins season after season, to showing the world new things that these capable little falcons were able to do... Even those who have known Al Ross from the beginning still have a hard time keeping up!

Jeremy Kessler

Howling winds buffet us as Jeremy Kessler and I hunker over my podcasting equipment at the table in Steve Jones' customized school bus. In this episode, we learn about Jeremy Kessler. At the time of recording, Jeremy is flying a cast of falcons… and brings a very interesting perspective into this episode. Despite the most careful planning and preparation, falconry often spirals into a chaotic sport. Many of us spend our days doing everything we can to avoid chaos, to ensure everything goes off without a hitch. Jeremy embraces the chaos.

Steve Jones

Each year, a hardy group of falconers tow their campers and teepees far into the remote southwestern Wyoming desert, where they situate them around Steve Jones' customized school bus. In this episode, we learn about Steve Jones, widely known for his American Falconry Magazine. From his falconry origins, to the beginning of their annual grouse camp tradition, flying casts of falcons, and so much more!

Gary Boberg

If you know Gary, you know how he wants the spotlight anywhere but on him… But with such a wide-ranging reputation, it was only a matter of time before we would catch him on his trips to Wyoming to hawk Sage Grouse. Between hawking, working his Setter "Hope", fishing for trout, arrowhead hunting, or competing with Steve at a thousand games of cornhole, pinning him down was no small task. Boberg is widely known, and loved. Decades of hard hawking alongside his California peers and his positive, genuine personality have made him a staple of West Coast falconry friendships. In this episode, we get to know Gary's story… A lot of you will know many of the names he drops. We experience California as it once was, through Cooper's Hawk hunting exploits and the golden age of duck hawking in the state, as we follow Gary's illustrious falconry journey from boyhood to his latest endeavors with eagles and chasing the pinnacle moments of grouse hawking.
