Summary
Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver rant and rave over a wide range of topics in this episode, starting with the anticipation surrounding the upcoming NFL schedule release and the buzz around the league heading into the new season.
The conversation then shifts to the growing struggles facing the American farmer, and the economic pressures hitting rural communities. The guys also discuss the growing dissatisfaction many young adults feel about the current state and direction of the country, the lack of competition across major industries in America, and possible solutions to the ongoing health care crisis.
They also break down the recent legislation in Oklahoma aimed at regulating waterfowl outfitters and hunting guides, discussing what the bill could mean for the future of the duck hunting industry, outfitters, and nonresident hunters.
