Andy Erickson, a former morning radio host in Sioux Falls, breathes into a microphone once again. Likely topics discussed are how great and irritating Sioux Falls can be, things that are amusing, stuff that is hypocritical, and probably some stuff about shooting and hunting and kids and family and friends.
My brother Joe is back on the podcast. We drank whiskey and I fed him a delicious elk loin steak (backstrap) and he admitted he liked it even though I reverse seared it. We also told a bunch of stories from when we were kids, including him correcting me on the story of him lighting a fart on fire that shot a flame four feet high. Other topics: ABS and traction control keep teens from learning how to drive, the neighborhood boys, snow is crazy in Sioux Falls, modern cars confuse us, being gamer dads, Joe likes Fortnite, Andy likes Rocket League, church pastors who are interesting, guns we wish we never sold, nerdy shooting stuff.

Jeff King is large man from Omaha, Nebraska. He and I met shooting matches and classes, but most of this episode is spent talking about his fascinating trip to the historic World War II sites on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands. There was lots of history, and more than a few sketchy and dangerous situations on a big group tour. We also talk a little USPSA.

Recorded during my recent elk hunt in Harding County, South Dakota. It was like Apollo 13, a successful failure. This was recorded differently, I did small segments on my iPhone while driving and combined them into this episode. I hope you enjoy it!
