Summary

Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I’m joined by Mark Livesay, and in this episode we dig into a recent land transfer bill that almost stripped thousands of acres of public land from hunters like you and me.

We’re talking politics, truth, and the real power of grassroots action. Mark and I break down what almost happened, how the bill got shut down, and what this fight says about the future of public lands in America.

No fluff, no filters—just facts, fire, and why hunters can't afford to sit this one out.

All right, folks, welcome to the Gritty Podcast.

0:02.3

I'm joined by Mark Livesey here.

0:05.5

We're going to talk a little bit about this recent political gamesmanship that went down.

0:14.5

A little bit of a – I'm a little confused, by the way.

0:17.7

There are some people saying the government, um, politicians were not

0:23.6

trying to sell public lands. Others saying they were, but just, just to give some backstory to folks,

0:29.6

I did a podcast with my friend John Stallone over at howl.org. And, uh, there was an issue going down um let me see and grab a little

0:44.3

update here uh where there was a transfer transferring land for state parks going on um they were they introduced a bill

1:54.2

them how you're opposed. Tell them what you think if you're opposed to the sale or the transfer of

2:00.7

these lands into state ownership.

2:03.3

Now, for a lot of people that aren't, you know, they're new to this or they haven't really followed the public land debate, there's, it boils down to this.

2:23.4
