| 0:00.0 | What is going on? This is Jake Hofer and welcome to the Exodus podcast this week. We have Bill Winky. |
| 0:05.0 | So this is an episode from this past March when we were out in Iowa for a scouting trip, |
| 0:10.4 | shed hunting trip, and the Iowa Deer Classic. We are much anticipating to see if we draw Iowa this year. |
| 0:17.0 | That's going to be coming here very soon. But we sat down with bill on the way back and we cover the new farm that he bought briefly. |
| 0:25.0 | We talk about buying your first farm. |
| 0:27.9 | We talk about his entire land journey of where he started at 32 years old with $12,000 |
| 0:33.9 | and how he turned that into just a giant land holding and obviously a dream farm. |
| 0:40.8 | So great information. |
| 0:43.0 | And then we also answer some Q&A towards the end of the conversation. |
| 0:45.8 | And if you guys enjoy this conversation, we also have a podcast called The Land Podcast. |
| 0:51.1 | And that airs conversations very similar to this. |
| 0:53.6 | Every single Monday, you can check |
| 0:55.3 | it out in the description. Another pretty exciting thing is we will be having Bill on White Tail Cribes |
| 1:01.8 | on the Exodus YouTube channel this November. So, as you know, that will be a great episode. |
| 1:07.7 | You get to check out his new office and all the deer he's killed and check out what he has going on. And in addition to really appreciate this conversation because if you |
| 1:14.9 | recall this, we lost the footage, the audio and everything to this conversation. When we were in |
| 1:21.1 | Iowa, somehow everything went awry and our stuff went missing for about 48 hours and luck would have but we were able to |
| 1:28.6 | track it down i turned around drove back to i met scott buckley to pick up all of the uh lost items so |
| 1:34.7 | really appreciate this because this was almost gone and lost forever so if you guys enjoy the |
| 1:39.6 | conversation share it with someone that would also enjoy it or leave a five-star written review |
| 1:43.7 | would really help us out. |
| 1:45.0 | And we have a big announcement coming from Exodus here very soon. |
