Prince of Wales Island, Alaska: Weathering a rainstorm during a Sitka Blacktail Hunt, Steven Rinella talks with guests Joe Rogan, Bryan Callen, Janis Putelis, and Dan Doty. Subjects discussed: the highly flammable nature of Frito Lay corn chips; staying warm with fleece sleeping bag liners; getting stranded by bad weather when doing fly-in hunts; why suffering is fun; how everything in life is a reaction to whatever happened last; overlooked DIY big game hunts; how bald eagles salute Bryan Callen when he takes his shirt off; infanticide among bear populations; evolution and coincidence; Steve's animal scat collection; Hunter S. Thompson; Mormon apostate James Jesse Strang; moose droppings as incense; the anxiety of influence; and why it's bad if women think you're "nice" but it's good if women think you're "funny." Notes and misc links: Steven Rinella's coffee table scat collection: http://themeateater.com/2012/scat-collection/ Matt Rinella on the joys of moose scat incense: http://themeateater.com/2012/scat-and-sniff/ Lone Survivors: How We Came to Be the Only Humans on Earth

0:00.0 | This is the meat eater podcast recording in hell if they had decided to go and |
0:08.2 | they should have. If you really wanted to scare sinners you would have had it |
0:13.5 | be cold and wet rather than hot and fiery. I think hell should have been cold and |
0:18.4 | wet. It would be less people in it. The hell we're in right now is southern |
0:24.5 | in Prince of Wales Island. It's a very big island. It's like by some |
0:29.0 | definitions the third largest island in the US. It's about half the size of Hawaii |
0:33.7 | Island has about four times the coastline. 160 inches of rain, a significant |
0:40.5 | proportion which we're logging right now. We're on a blacktail deer hunt. We've |
0:45.5 | had one chunk of about five or six hours which I would call productive |
0:50.9 | hunting out of three days. We're stuck right now in a seek outside T.P. tent. We |

1:20.6 | sea plane in here to get me the hell out of here. You know what? I was thinking |
1:25.6 | that until I got that fleece liner from my sleeping bag. I'm a new man. I'm good |
1:30.7 | to go dude. We started a fire last night. The fire was a huge, a row boost. I |
1:36.3 | was Steven. I dried out my sleeping bag. My sleeping bag was wet from that |
1:40.4 | in the fleece liner and the fact that for about two seconds I had a scope on a |
1:46.0 | buck yesterday. Yeah. For two seconds I saw that sucker in the scope. It's |
1:50.7 | amazing how rejuvenative that is actually. That means that if anything had gone |
