Would you start a movement to fight for something you believe in? My guest this week did just that. Meet Jimmy Flatt, founder of Hunters of Color (HOC). Jimmy is an avid hunter who saw the need for an "inclusion revolution" in hunting to make it safe and welcoming for members of the BIPOC community. And so was born HOC.The mission HOC is “To create a more equitable community for hunters of color by dismantling barriers to entry through educational opportunities, mentorships, and resources for new hunters, in order to promote diversity and preserve the North American Model of Conservation of our wild spaces and animals.”We chat about diversity, equity, justice, and inclusion in hunting, how allies can step up and help, the HOC mentor program, and much more. Plus Jimmy shares his favorite hunting story and takes on some rapid-fire questions.Did you enjoy this episode? Are you taking value from ISC?

On July 3rd, 2020, Jim Posewitz passed from this world on to the next grand adventure. Jim was a living legend and during the short time that I knew him, he deeply impacted my life. Along with an impressive career fighting for Montana outdoor legacy as a biologist for Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, Jim authored numerous books on various aspects of hunting and conservation, founded Orion: The Hunter&apos;s Institute,  was a founding member of the Montana Outdoor Hall of Fame, was inducted in the second class of said Hall of Fame, and the list goes on. Jim was the consummate voice in advocating for education and ethics in the hunting sphere. He will be missed. I hope he is somewhere in the mountains, rifle in hand.FULL EPISODE: 013 - New Trails & Best Shots with Gayle & PozObituaryShare a memory of JimNeed help with your podcast?

I&apos;m always looking to optimize my life. Whether that&apos;s through training, learning, or having conversations, I&apos;m on a quest to live my life in alignment with my highest potential. For me, taking care of my body is a critical aspect of that mission. I want to fuel my body so that it functions at its fullest capacity. And that that&apos;s where Gnarly Nutrition comes in.In this episode of In Strange Company, I sit down (virtually) with Shannon O&apos;Grady and Eli Kerr of Gnarly Nutrition. While we do cover the amazing products that Gnarly has to offer (I highly recommend you check them out), this podcast is about so much more than that. It&apos;s three people talking about living life to the fullest because, as they say at Gnarly, we "want everyone to Find Their Gnarly, which is to experience the process of becoming more through a commitment to discover what you’re capable of."I&apos;m so excited to continue to share the amazing people, stories, and adventures that are shaping my life and I hope this podcast has a positive impact on yours.

"I stand at the end of no tradition. I may, perhaps, stand at the beginning of one.” Ayn RandToday&apos;s episode will be a subdued one. My heart is breaking. I apologize if at times this message is hard to hear through my tears, but I can keep them in no longer. I don&apos;t have the answers to the problems that face our country around racism. As a former law enforcement officer my feelings are complex, to say the least. But one thing I can say is this a time for listening and learning. And once we know better we must do better. Thank you for listening to my thoughts. I believe that we have the capacity within us for great acts of goodness. I believe we can and should treat those who don&apos;t look like us with dignity and respect and equality. I have faith in us. Have faith in each other.Need help with your podcast?

070 - Racism and New Traditions

mish·mash NOUNin singularA confused mixtureAbout a year ago I set out to name these shorter Monday episodes. Because each is one of a kind and honestly pretty random, I wanted a name that reflected the unique nature of these episodes. I finally settled on "The Monday Mishmash". These episodes are the epitome of a mishmash. They are the random things I'm thinking about and the lessons I'm learning as I navigate this confusing and wonderful experience we call life. Sometimes stream of consciousness, always random and authentic, I hope that these conservations between me and myself will inspire you to become more introspective, or at least entertain you! I'm so excited to continue to share the amazing people, stories, and adventures that are shaping my life and I hope this podcast has a positive impact on yours.
