Show Notes from Florida Uncut:
On the inaugural episode of Florida Uncut, we sit down with the legendary Florida cowboy, Jim Strickland, to talk about the intersection of ranching and conservation. The talk, which took place in a cabin on Blackbeard’s Ranch in Myakka City, FL, which Jim manages, is a mix of personal history and education on conservation topics.
Jim claims to be a simple sixth-generation Florida cowboy, but his sharp communication skills and ability to get things done has been instrumental in the thousands of acres of land he’s helped protect with the Florida Conservation Group, which he is the vice-chair of, as well as the army of folks he’s been able to mobilize and motivate through the years to help join his cause of protecting what’s left of wild Florida.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, folks, welcome to adventure sports podcast. I'm your host, Mason. Today is typically a throwback |
| 0:27.4 | Thursday episode, but we're going to do something a little bit different today. We're going to do |
| 0:32.0 | a little bit of my new podcast, Florida Uncut. We're just going to feature like the first 20 minutes of this |
| 0:38.6 | interview that I did with a rancher. And let me go ahead and explain what this new podcast is. |
| 0:44.4 | I launched it last week and, you know, I guess I'll just wind it all the way back. You know, |
| 0:50.5 | this show started out in Colorado by Kurt and Travis. I took it over in 2018, |
| 0:56.0 | almost five, it's actually five years ago like this month. Crazy. That is so crazy. Anyway, |
| 1:03.6 | I moved back to Florida a couple years ago where I'm from, and something I've been thinking |
| 1:08.7 | about a lot lately, and something I've always kind of been interested in is, |
| 1:12.3 | you know, we have adventures a lot of times on land |
| 1:15.7 | that someone decided to protect at some point. |
| 1:19.5 | So whether that be a national park or a state park |
| 1:22.7 | or some sort of state forest, |
| 1:24.7 | I mean, so many of the adventures we talk about on the show happen because people |
| 1:30.0 | are protecting land all over the world. And I'm becoming more and more interested in how those |
| 1:36.2 | pieces of land come to be. How does the National Park come to be? How does a protected area come to be |
| 1:41.4 | that we eventually get to recreate on? And I want to be part of the force and |
| 1:47.0 | the movement of protecting more and more land. Because here in Florida, especially, if you're not |
| 1:51.6 | familiar with the state, it's a very narrow strip of lamb. And it's the most popular state to move to |
| 1:57.5 | in the whole United States. Like so many people are moving here, and there's already a lot of |
| 2:02.0 | people here. I think it's the third most populous state, only behind Texas and California. |
| 2:08.5 | And so this decade is really important to Florida, to making sure the whole thing doesn't get |
