Welcome to the Vortex Nation podcast brought to you by lovers of hunting, shooting, public lands, the Second Amendment and good food. food. All right, what is up everybody?

Just mark on the mic on this side of the table, but I've brought reinforcements across for me digitally in our

electronic virtual world you're real to me gentleman I've got Tyler and Casey

from the element I might miss some things here because it's a lot of things.

It's the Element Podcast.

You guys have your YouTube channel.

You've teamed up with the Meteor Crew.

You've got the Buck Truck meat eater crew you've got the buck truck project that I miss it. We're going to dive into all these things

But is there anything else I need to be aware of before we start?

I mean you nailed it pretty good man. You're doing a lot of small details, but you know you don't want to get caught

in the weeds too much right right right well we're about to go get caught in the

weeds right now so gentlemen if you can real quick Casey I'll start with you we'll go left to right at least that's how I read.

Tell us a little bit about yourself you know where you're from and we'll go from there.

Yeah absolutely so I'm born in East Texas Texas, which is, you know, if you're across the nation, you might have a certain

opinion of what Texas looks like and where we're from doesn't usually really look like that.

Where we're from looks a lot like maybe the

Ozarks with a little bit smaller hills. Like we don't really have a lot of hills here at all, but just big oak trees,

big pine trees, dairy country, you know, hay fields, all that, not a lot of agriculture here.

Born and raised here, married, have a couple kiddos, pretty heavily involved in the youth

ministry at my local church and hunt deer and hogs and turkeys and all kinds of stuff.

And also really like to garden a whole lot,

although my garden doesn't like me.
