    EP 76: Aporkalypse Round Table

    Welcome to Aporkalypse 2026. In this special episode of the Southern U Podcast, we loaded up with our friends from Tethrd, First South Farm Credit, and WiseEye Technologies and headed to South Alabama for a late-summer feral hog hunt. With the number of wild hogs we expected to encounter, the trip earned a fitting nickname before we ever arrived: Aporkalypse 2026. But this episode is about much more than pulling the trigger. Around the truck, at the lodge, and over great meals, we dive into the conversations that define Southern hunting culture. We talk about chasing feral swine, the challenges they create for landowners, conservation, hunting traditions, good food, and the friendships that are built when people spend time outdoors together. This is what Southern U is all about—bringing together hunters, land managers, industry partners, and storytellers to celebrate the people, places, and traditions that make the South special. Whether you're a seasoned hunter, a landowner battling hogs, or someone who simply enjoys authentic stories from the outdoors, we think you'll feel right at home. In this episode: A late-summer South Alabama feral hog hunt Why we dubbed the trip "Aporkalypse 2026" Hunting with friends from Tethrd, First South Farm Credit, and WiseEye Technologies Southern food, culture, and campfire conversations The impact of feral hogs on farms, wildlife, and land management 👍 If you enjoyed this episode, like the video, subscribe to the channel, and share it with a hunting buddy. #SouthernUPodcast #Aporkalypse2026 #FeralHogs #HogHunting #Alabama #SouthernHunting #Tethrd #WiseEye #FirstSouthFarmCredit #Conservation #Outdoors #HuntingPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

    EP 75: Open Fields Doctrine Debate

    The Open Fields Doctrine has sparked passionate debate across the country. Supporters say it's an essential tool for protecting wildlife and stopping poaching. Critics argue it infringes on private property rights and the Fourth Amendment. In this episode, we hear directly from a former conservation officer who spent years enforcing wildlife laws in the field. She shares real-world experiences, clears up common misconceptions, and weighs in on the legal challenges that could reshape conservation law in the Southeast.

    EP 74: Inside A Habitat Consultation

    Every great wildlife property starts with a plan—but what does that process actually look like? In this episode of the Southern U Podcast, four wildlife biologists take you behind the scenes of a property consultation and explain how they develop a customized wildlife management plan for landowners. From the very first conversation, the focus is on understanding the landowner's goals. Are they managing for trophy whitetails, wild turkeys, quail, waterfowl, or simply improving the overall health of their property? The biologists discuss how a property's location, habitat, acreage, existing resources, and budget all influence the recommendations they make. They also break down the realistic financial investment and long-term commitment often required to achieve meaningful results, helping landowners understand what to expect before work ever begins. Whether you're considering a consultation for your own property or you're simply interested in learning how professional wildlife management decisions are made, this episode offers valuable insight into the science and strategy behind building a successful management plan. **In this episode you'll learn:** * What biologists evaluate during an initial property consultation * Why clearly defining your goals is the foundation of every management plan * How location, habitat, and property size shape recommendations * What improvements may be needed to achieve your objectives * How to think about budgeting and long-term investments in wildlife management * Why every property requires a customized approach If you've ever wondered what happens after you make that first call to a wildlife biologist, this episode answers the questions every landowner should ask before beginning their habitat improvement journey.

Let's talk about getting ready for bow season in the South. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    EP 69: Controlling Invasive Plant Species

    Every great hunting property has one thing in common—good habitat. But across the country, invasive plants are slowly taking over and pushing out the native vegetation that wildlife depends on. In this episode, we talk about what that looks like on real properties, how it affects hunting, and what it takes to turn things around. From deer movement to turkey nesting to quail habitat, it all starts with what’s growing on your land. If you’re serious about land ownership, stewardship, and better hunting, this episode is for you. #LandManagement#HuntingProperty#InvasiveSpecies#WildlifeHabitat #DeerManagement Learn more about your ad choices.
