    Farts and A**holes

    Strap in, bird nerds. This episode is all about ethics in wildlife photography... which is hilarious, because there is no universal ethical line. It’s more like a vague, wiggly suggestion that everyone interprets differently while an owl stares at them like, “Really? That’s your choice?” Kyle and Matt dive into the high‑stakes world of photographing wildlife without being a menace, wrestling with the eternal question: how do you respect the animals and still get a shot that doesn’t look like it was taken on a potato? They tackle gear debates, lens drama, and the shocking revelation that buying the most expensive equipment does not magically grant you field craft, patience, or common sense. Expect stories from the field featuring birds with strong opinions, photographers with questionable judgment, and the ongoing struggle to balance “capturing compelling images” with “not disturbing literally everything in the forest.” They also champion the radical idea of learning from experienced photographers, preferably the ones who haven’t been chased by a goose. The takeaway? Ethical wildlife photography is a personal journey full of nuance, adaptation, and the occasional moment where you realize the bird understands ethics better than you do.

    Rebar Up My Keister

    Kyle and Matt are back with another delightfully chaotic episode of The Angry Birds Pod Show, kicking things off with a surprisingly deep dive into the world of Crocs...are they fashion, function, or just foam filled folly? From there, Matt wrestles with lens loyalty as he debates whether to keep a piece of glass that’s been giving him mixed feelings. The duo also takes a closer look at the Canon R6iii, unpacking its specs, quirks, and whether it’s worth the hype for hobbyists and pros alike. But it wouldn’t be an Angry Birds episode without a twist: this week, the guys dig into a potential AI-generated scam in the Bird Photographer of the Year competition. Is it clever tech or just foul play? As always, expect plenty of tangents, distractions, and off-the-rails banter that somehow circles back to photography, gear, and the occasional existential question. Tune in for laughs, lens talk, and a little bit of bird drama.

    Canadian Brown Paper Bag

    Matt and Kyle are back with another wildly entertaining episode of the Angry Bird Pod Show, and this one’s got everything from feathers to fries. They kick things off with a deep dive into the world of fast food—sharing cravings, critiques, and a few questionable choices that might make you rethink your next drive-thru run. Then it’s onto the great outdoors, where a seemingly peaceful birding trip takes a turn for the unfortunate. Let’s just say not all birds are as welcoming as they look, and Matt might have a new nemesis with wings. The duo also gets into a surprisingly passionate debate about photography: how small is too small in frame? Whether you're a pixel purist or just snapping for fun, this one might ruffle your compositional feathers. And of course, it wouldn’t be the Angry Bird Pod Show without a generous helping of tangents. From roadside snacks to existential lens choices, Matt and Kyle let the conversation fly in every direction.

    Bird Chat with Richard Birchett

    🎧 Angry Bird Pod Show – Bird Chat with Richard Birchett In this delightfully chaotic episode, Kyle and Matt are joined by filmmaker and gear aficionado Richard Birchett for a conversation that starts with car trouble and ends... well, somewhere far from where it began. The trio dives into the gritty realities of automotive mishaps—from mysterious dashboard lights to the existential dread of unexpected repairs—and somehow segues into the world of camera lenses, technique, and creative process. Richard shares his thoughts on new gear, what makes a lens truly special, and how technique can elevate even the simplest shot. Midway through, the conversation takes a thoughtful turn as the crew compares the worlds of YouTube videography and traditional photography. They unpack the different mindsets, workflows, and storytelling approaches each discipline demands—how photographers chase the perfect still moment, while YouTubers often build narratives through motion, pacing, and personality. It’s a candid look at how the platforms shape the craft, and how creators like Richard navigate both worlds with style and intention. But don’t expect a straight line from A to B. This episode is packed with detours, side quests, and glorious tangents that range from the philosophical to the absurd. Whether it's debating the merits of vintage glass, reminiscing about past projects, or spiraling into a discussion about the perfect road trip snack, Kyle, Matt, and Richard keep the energy high and the laughs rolling. It’s a perfect storm of insight, inspiration, and irreverence—just the way Angry Bird fans like it. 📸 Richard's Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/richardbirchett/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@RichardBirchett Join the conversation and connect with us: 📸 Matt's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_mattparish/ 📸 Kyle's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kyle.boehm.photography/ If you enjoy The Angry Bird Pod Show, don’t forget to: ⭐ Leave a 5-star review—it helps others discover the show! ❤️ Like & share—tell your friends to join the flock! 🎧 Subscribe—never miss an episode!
