Matt is joined by Robert Borsak Junior from the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party covering conservation reform, hunting and fishing, politics, national park access, NZ comparisons, and First Nations perspectives.

In this episode, we sit down with Robert Borsak Junior to unpack a wide-ranging discussion that blends policy, culture, and life in the outdoors. We talk about the current conservation and hunting bill and what it means for hunters, farmers, landholders and regional communities. The conversation moves through hunting and fishing stories, the realities of managing wildlife in modern Australia, and the political challenges surrounding access, regulation and public land use.

We also explore national park access and how different models—particularly New Zealand’s approach—offer insights into what could work here. Robert shares his view on balancing opportunity, safety, conservation and public interest. The conversation then turns to First Nations culture, looking at traditional land management, connection to Country, and how modern hunting can learn from long-standing practices. It’s an episode that spans policy, heritage, and the passion that drives both recreational and conservation-minded hunting.

In this episode, Matt is joined by Joe from Ridgewalker Expeditions who shares stories from a range of international hunts, each with its own challenges, landscapes, and traditions. From stalking game in the mountains of Sweden to the unique experiences in Africa, and the fascinating access rules in Italy that involve moats and highly regulated land rights, Joe brings first-hand insights into what it’s like to hunt across continents. We talk about the different perspectives on land access, how hunting culture shifts depending on the country, and what Australian hunters can learn from these approaches. It’s an open and eye-opening conversation about opportunity, tradition, and responsibility in hunting across the globe.

In this episode, Matt is joined by Gary, an ex-pat from Ireland. The boys dive into night operations on Australian farms: reading wind and paddock layouts, running buggies in the crops, and using thermal optics to identify heat signatures, confirm species, and make clean, ethical shots in the dark.

We talk through teamwork, how to approach mobs without blowing the whole field and maximising effectiveness in reducing numbers. We also cover gear setups—thermal scopes and handheld scanners, handheld lights and the practical realities of crop protection: respecting landholders, stock, and neighbours while keeping pressure on pigs that hammer grain and silage.

Gary then compares it with hunting in Ireland—how culture, permissions, and club/community expectations shape a very different experience. We discuss contrasts in access, landowner relationships, seasons and game management, and how equipment choices and local laws influence what’s practical in the field. It’s a candid chat about ethics, safety, and doing things the right way on both sides of the world.
