Bear Grease

With Clay and Bear away, Josh "Landbridge" Spielmaker leads the discussion with a room full of bear hunters. He is joined by River Newcomb, Matt Gagnon of Time Honored Media, and Joe Liles, retired US Forest Service law enforcement officer and his wife Crystal. Josh, River, and Joe recall the stories of the weeks bear harvest in Arkansas with three successful hunts. With bear hunting, nothing is ever just straightforward, so tune in to hear all the twists and turns and unexpected circumstances that keep us returning to the woods year after year.

Some stories are just too good to only hear once, so we are going back to listen again to Clay Newcomb as he ask talks with New York Times best selling author Steve Rinella and Dr. Dan T. Carter, professor emeritus at the University of South Carolina about black-listed book “The Education of Little Tree.” The book, an alleged semi-autobiographical story about a Cherokee boy growing up in southern Appalachia, was written by Forest Carter, which was the false identity of famed white supremacist, Ku Klux Klan chapter founder and speech writer for Governor George Wallace, Dan Carter. In part 1, Clay reflects on the honest, insightful, and empathetic context of the book and explores the nuance and dissonance of what to do with with art in light of an artist’s beliefs.
