Summary

This week we're rolling out our very first "Best of THC" podcast featuring some of our favorite characters from almost two years of conversations on hunting and life. In this episode you'll hear from Texas photographer, biologist, and predator hunter Wyman Meinzer on his upbringing, and photographer Dusan Smetana on escaping communist Czechoslovakia and finding his way to Montana. To wrap things up Charles "The Rabbit Man" Rodney talks about coming up as a sharecropper's son in segregated Louisiana.
