Welcome to Country Tough with Brandy Von Holten.  I have to take a back seat to today's very distinguished guest, Brenda Valentine, the First Lady of Hunting.  Brenda has been the host of multiple TV shows:  Turkey Country and Bass Pro Shop/Outdoor World.  She has modeled hunting attire and even authored a book titled "Hunting MisAdventures with the First Lady of Hunting".  Brenda was even riding a saddle made with the hid of a Cape Buffalo she hunted in Africa.  This woman is in her own league of coolness!  Brenda also shares her struggles with the tick disease called Alpha Gal.  This lady is more country than biscuits and gravy!  Heck, you might have to listen to this podcast twice to make sure you didn't miss anything.
