    As an Alaskan I am so proud to be accepted into the Midwest, also as another Alaskan the lay down thing is only for tourists from the lower 48 without a gun and usually ends bad we use our voice for black and brown bears first, then a warning shot or some spray and if that doesn’t work we unload in their shoulders so if the shots don’t kill them it’ll stop them chasing you. If you do run into a polar though your pretty much up a creek without a paddle and might as well start a rosary

    Used to be a French press guy... then I found out about cowboy coffee. Boil a good ol pot of water take a fistful of coffee and throw it in there. Once ready take off heat andput a cup of cold water in. The grounds will sink to the bottom. The trick to getting it real good never wash that pot just rince it out. The first few are mediocre but once you give it that nice seasoning you can't get better coffee anywhere.

    As a person from Michigan, (who grew up with the Lions never winning) I gave up on them. I went to college football and I’ve been a wolverine my whole adult life. This last season watching them win the national championship really brought home to me how important it is to see the team you love win it all. I just stood there and sobbed knowing that at my age I probably won’t see that again. It was very emotional and I was left thinking “now what do we do” but we did it and we went the distance. To all the loyal football fans who love their team. I hope you get to experience that joy because there’s nothing in the world that compares. It’s so funny because people ask me why it means so much to me and I can’t tell you why I just know that it does. So I’m looking for a new football team because I’m rather disillusioned with mine. My heart will always remember U of M team 144.

    I live in the interior of Alaska. A Northern Minnesota transplant. I will agree with that Bear advice. I have had many run ins with Grizzly And black bears out on my adventures in the remote bush. If attacked by a black bear fight back. Play dead if its a Grizzly. That's only IF you dont have a firearm on you, And I always have a firearm on me. To be honest, black bears have caused me more problems over the years than grizzly's. And yes, black bears are just as dangerous as a grizz. People get attacked by them quite often in Alaska. Anywho, great podcast guys!

    The lions lose every year to bring Michigan closer together. To remind families that there's life outside of football and maybe, just maybe, its time to take the kids out to the lake again before the big freeze. They do this on purpose for all the good hard working families of the great north. True heroes in my book

    As an Alaskan who has looked around and asked officials, the minimum I’m you should carry just to scare the bear is a .45. When you come across one though, is just keep doing what you’re doing. They know you are there. Just be ready, but don’t freak out. 6/10 times they just want to say hi, 2/8 they just accidentally came by and went bye bye themselves. That last 2/10 when come is when you act and worry

    Crazy bear mace story I read about a few years back. It was online so you know it is true. 😏 There was a man hiking with a group when he came upon a grizzly or brown bear. The guy whipped out the bear mace but unfortunately the wind blew it back into his face and incapacitated him. The other hikers say that when the bear attacked the smell of the mace was so strong thr bear actually couldn't stand it and left him alive. Has anyone else heard this story and if so did it have merit?
