Matt Graham has featured on several survival TV shows such as Discovery channels Dual Survival. He is an author, runner, and primitive skills instructor. He opens up about his recent and past desert walkabout adventures, his commitment to a hunter-gatherer diet, and the profound joy he finds in connecting with a wild place.
Ever wondered how the practices of our ancestors can influence modern life? Matt masterfully weaves his knowledge of Native American traditions with his day-to-day life, from crafting juniper bows to running in handcrafted sandals. This episode isn't just about survival; it's about thriving in a world where ancient skills and ethical hunting converge with a deep respect for the ecosystems that sustain us.
As we sit with Matt, we delve into the practicalities and ethics of living off the land in an era where laws and regulations often clash with the rhythms of a feral lifestyle. We examine the human interference that disrupts our natural habitats, discussing the controversial management of invasive species and the crucial role of stewardship. Join us for a conversation that is as much about honing primitive skills like using the atlatl and tickling trout as it is about pondering our place in the world. This episode isn't just an exploration of nature; it's a roadmap for living in harmony with the world around us.
