Welcome to this country life. I'm your host, Brent Reeves.

From coon hunting to trotlining and just general country living, I want you to stay a while

as I share my experiences and life lessons.

This country life is presented by Case Knives on Meat Eat Eater's Podcast Network, bringing you the best outdoor podcast the airways have to offer.

All right, friends, grab a chair or drop that tailgate.

I've got some stories to share.

Waylon, Jesse, and the girls.

Bringing a puppy into the family is a risky gamble if it's a hunt dog.

Not all of them turn out like you won't.

And after the family gets attached, what happens next?

Are you stuck with a pet?

I'm so excited to talk about what's new at my house,

that we're just going to jump straight to it and discuss what my experience has been,

and that is some of my friends.

Let's get to it.

Every week here on the This Country Live show, nine times out of ten, I'm talking about something that happened in the past, either recently or back with me and Jesus were still in junior high.

I'm connected to the past as we all are, and it's from those experiences that help shape our lives or format how we see things and point us on the past that we choose to follow.

The same can be said for this week, but I'm also going to be talking about the future and an

investment I'm making now that I hope to start seeing the dividends of in the next year.

No, I'm not talking about betting on the stock market or trying to come up with an easy way to fold a fitted sheet to revolutionize the home laundry business.

I'm getting a coon dog puppy.

Or better yet, we're getting a coon dog puppy because everyone in the household will be affected by her presence.
