Now I get to see the disappointment video after watching part 2 first

[@Last_Chance.]

How dare you

[@byrd5163]

So the episodes were bass ackwards.

[@Jefestephens]

😂😂😂

[@adeee4766]

Same!!🤣

[@Dustin-gf9su]

Spoiler alert watching Steve hunt knowing he's my kind of guy and his poetic twist keeps me coming back. Just like real hunting the harvest is only a bonus to the experience.

[@Fred-yr3iu]

Steve and Ryan love the seeing this duo! Ryan is the man

[@jacksonnewman6498]

I love watching Steve do stuff another than hunting all the time loved the shrimping aspects of the vid

[@EmbracingTeReoMaori]

Tuning in from New Zealand. Love your work guys.

[@ryanaustin872]

Rinella and Callaghan episodes are some of my favorites. Wish Bryan Callen would come back for a hunt though!

[@brianjenson8184]

Your killing me. I lived in se ak for 25 years and it was awesome! Western Washington is too crowded for me. Thank God my son in law has a nice boat so I go up every year fishing.

[@rabbithomesteading3797]

Those cucumbers did look like they came out great! Being inland for me is hard but a bucket list item I believe I would love to at least try. Great show!

[@underdogoutdoors]

It's always badass when you use a boat to get to your spot, especially in a place where it's wise to have a backup motor on a small boat!

[@MountainMariner]

I’m moored to a buoy for six months of the year at Hitchinbrook Island AK. Sitka Blacktail will visit the beaches at low tide and eat seaweed washed ashore. Like clockwork. Never seen a skinny Sitka Blacktail there.

[@realhunter0.879]

These are my fav videos

[@kapluts]

That canoe scene is just ridiculously beautiful

[@DaisyKaur-b1g]

Wow, it's really good. It's very attractive and the AD is very interesting

[@jessicah7247]

As I've said before, very glad to see the high quality re-uploads! =] Did you guys recently get full control over the Netflix collaboration series?

[@kevensantos4908]

This place is incredible

[@tobyreed8916]

I love Callaghan honestly such a top bloke

[@HacheChugz]

I love the man. The stashe don’t lie!

Your aiming skills are an art! It's incredible that you can hit such distant targets.

[@shawndickmann8215]

That terrain reminds of Northern WI. Those calls crack me up though, a whitetail would just run away from that.

[@erwiin997]

finally saw the antler rattle caller in action :o

[@gamblejason3543]

Ole boy was running those deer straight out of dodge!

[@BrockLowell]

My favorite is Joe being miserable!

[@Last_Chance.]

Absolutely

[@AWOLcause]

Whaaaasup meat eaters!

[@spencer4401]

love to see mark in tow on this one

[@ethanmallard-xy9yz]

You need to do a hunt in arkansas. Can’t wait to see it

[@TheElementWild]

Agreed!

[@__-zn3gh]

He’s did a squirrel hunt in akansas he’s got it uploaded. It was in the winter with snow on ground.

[@jacttackle57]

Well placed mineral blocks can go a long way when blacktails are playing hide and go seek

[@JT_Trys]

Do you shoot through the tape that is on the muzzle? I’m assuming that is to keep stuff out of the barrel while hiking

[@jaredknapp8886]

You can for sure shoot through a barrel cover.

[@KP-zv1sn]

He’s mentioned it before on a previous episode. Tape over the barrel doesn’t affect the shot at all and prevents anything from going down the barrel while you’re hiking around. You can shoot through it so you don’t have to worry about removing a barrel cover when it comes time to shoot.

[@kevinsmith9726]

It blows off with the gases far before the bullet sees the end of the barrel

[@codyjosephbennett95]

2:23 is the Clay Newcomb

[@ERICKSVLOGZ]

Come to Rhode Island 👍🏽

[@ADVENTURESOFBZ]

Is this the episode they dropped last week?? I mean I'm gonna watch it again anyway lol but just wondering

[@ADVENTURESOFBZ]

Ohhh no it isn't the same. Yesssss. Scoorree

[@Chertoff88]

Such a beautiful land

[@KRAT0S_son_of_zeus]

Hunting like that is a dream of mine

[@paddleandhook]

Two minute mark = how to properly load a full size canoe into a small aluminum boat 😅

[@clayski9470]

idk who the 3rd guy is but he looks so sad inside like pt 2 he better get a sitka

[@flapdrol]

I would love to hunt mushrooms up there. Probably lots to find.

[@thendofspace]

Back to back to back🔥🐎🌄💯🦈🌳🌌🧬🗿

[@merlain75]

Gear question: It appears that you have electrical tape over the end of the barrel during the hike. Does this get removed before you might take a shot?

[@gavinlybarger8056]

I don’t know if they remove it but I’ve done some shooting with electric tape of the ends of my barrel and it didn’t change the impact or group size

[@josephmarciano2584]

Will that Fawn Distress call also call in bears?

[@michaelchase418]

Yes.

[@josephmarciano2584]

@@michaelchase418 Thanks! I guess that's what Steve means when he says, "...The unexpected."

[@michaelchase418]

@josephmarciano2584 you just have to look at "the food chain" and the fact that bears are omnivores and they have to capitalize on gaining the most calories by expending lesser calories. They simply couldn't exist in the parameters they exist in any other way. Their mass and fat content (stored calories) are a vital role in their existence experience. In similar ways to the deers existence experience, the doe's come to protect what they think is the a struggling next generation (continued existence) the bucks during rut are literally hardwired, to facilitate procreation existence. It's a weirdly simplistic drive for/based on lives that don't live long.

[@Dontworry44]

I am a meat-eater from the PNW. Retired now, residing in Philippines. I wish I had l known about sea-cucumbers. A year ago I was offered a chance to purchase a couple from a local fisherman who had accidentally snagged them in his net. Unwittingly, I declined. I guess I can say those sea cucmbers got away from me.

[@salkin2262]

Why no new episodes?

[@gamedinnah]

If Cal ain’t going to eat it, neither am I. .

[@everydaynormal5694]

How big do black tails get

[@RhysRyzyn]

60-200 pounds

[@koreywilliams4570]

I want to hunt my first white tail.

[@buckhundred]

Who carried the camera man’s canoe?

[@RenegadeBeef]

Any grizzlies out there? Crew hasn’t mentioned it and I don’t see anyone caring spray ….

Someone is definitely going to be made fun of for the next week

[@MetatronYHWH888]

rerun?

[@yinliu5634]

Man, u guys r eating sea cucumber wrong. U got to cook the whole thing. The Asian cook it with fatty pork, bamboo shoots, and make it a stew

[@MetatronYHWH888]

re-run?

[@mzanziman9150]

No old episodes come on, new stuff please otherwise we stop watching pod is boring now

[@John-by6jw]

Okay, who is the ridiculous DB in the ad before this video starts? This "hipster" shit needs to end soon

[@rsa9082]

I know this is an old video but for future shows. Please tone down the sound of the calls. I know all hunters are proud of their vocalizations dang the even have “calling contests” from pigs to husbands 😂 I love your shows/videos but if you count how many times you play the calls it’s heard to watch at least for me. It hurts my ears. Oh and why do you have your shows on so many different platforms? A few seasons here and a few seasons there, when your most interesting season is nowhere to be found. When you get attacked by the moose 😂 I’m sorry I’m really glad you didn’t get hurt but to hear Callahan say “ your smarter than that!” And you reply with “ evidently not“ is something I’ve said to myself more than I should with the time and experience with wild animals. Opening the door to get a better picture of the momma and two bear cubs at 20 feet!! The look of her eyes when she looked at me was. Shit! You know better than that lol. I truly related to you in that moment. 😂 Take care hope to see more Meateater episodes with you and Cal and Ryan and Yiannis (?) I worried you might have been sick and prayed you weren’t.

[@lourensswart8445]

Why do you have so little game in Alaska. I live in South Africa and if you have one valley there would be 5 different species with a lot of shootable specimens. Yet in Alaska you have an abundance of water, pristine habitat and yet very little game.

[@sar4x474]

Why is a tax payer funded government agency sponsoring this show? I love the show, but it seems inappropriate for a government agency using its funds to sponsor entertainment.

[@paulhenry8586]

It happens with the NFL constantly being it's listed as a non profit hahahahha and has tax payers footing the bill to build stadiums for the ultra rich owners and site local economy boost as a legitimate reason for this. On top of that research into the three letter organizations and Hollywood film making and you may be surprised

What are you talking about?

Why are they reposting episodes that’s on Netflix? We need new content. Podcast is getting boring
