0:00.0	My name is Tyler Webster, and this is the Western Wing Shooter podcast, presented by
0:15.9	Onex Hunt, Boss Shot Shells, Final Rise vests, Lucky Duck Kennels, gun dog grind coffee, and fervor pet supplements. Thanks. Hey, everybody. It's Tyler. I'm sitting in my hotel room here in Missoula, Montana.
0:55.6	The podcast you guys are going to hear in just a couple minutes after I get done running through my little spiel here is with Patrick Barry, the president and CEO of backcountry hunters and anglers.
1:06.6	I'm sure you guys are kind of getting tired of a lot of us in the hunting media, quote-unquote, whatever you want to call it, telling you that the sky is falling on public lands and that you need to call your duly elected and make sure that they know that it is not okay with you, that they're planning on selling off your public lands.
