| 10 Sep 2024 | 144. Mason Dixon Dual Purpose Coonhounds | 00:29:07 | |
In this week's episode I am joined by Joe Moore. Joe has been hunting and showing coonhounds since he was young and found some success as a kid in the UKC Youth program. This early success brought him back into the competition coonhound world after a short break for college. Joe is a diehard coon hunter that always has a nice coondog but competes at a high level in the very competative bench shows. He has had some big wins and understands the importance of having confimationally correct hounds that can do their job as well.

| 30 Aug 2022 | 37. Cool Whip | 01:25:22 | |
It took a little while to get this one lined up but I caught up with Eddie O'Dell. Eddie got into squirrel hunting to stay active after an injury left him unable to coon hunt. He had a rough start but finally stumbled upon a dog named Cool Whip, and the rest is history. Cool Whip has quite the resume that Eddie tells us about. While he has certainly proven himself in the woods he has also proven himself in the stud pen as well. | |||
| 26 Apr 2022 | Midwest Leopards | 00:28:30 | |
In March I was able to attend the Leopard Cur hunt and catch up with Bill and a few others as we talked mainly about what are known as midwest bred leopards. Bill has been involved with the Leopard breed since the late 1970's. Unfortunately had to cut this one a little short due to the events going on at the hunt. I'll have to get Bill on again to talk more about his long history with the breed. | |||

| 26 Nov 2024 | 154. Swedish Excursion | 01:01:38 | |
In this episode, Darren Petty joins us once again. He is settling in after his long journey to Sweden and back. Darren and I had talked about this trip a few times while he was planning it and I told him I definitely wanted to hear about it. Darren went over and stayed with former Tree Talkin Time guest Erik Rohdin. Erik planned some pretty epic adventures for the two of them and there wasn't a lot of downtime other than driving from place to place. What would be a once in a lifetime trip for most will most certainly not be for Darren as he is already planning his next trip.

In this week's episode I am joined by John Saunders Sr. I met John at Autumn Oaks this past year and knew quickly into our conversation I wanted to have him on the podcast.

| 16 May 2023 | 74. Versatile Highland Tree-dogs | 00:49:31 | |
I was finally able to corner my buddy Mick into coming on the podcast this week. I have known Mick for a 6 or 7 years through various social media and forums. Mick is originally from England and has an impressive resume of hunting all across Europe but is now over on this side of the pond in Canada. When he got here pursuing bobcats became his new obsession, and with that came tree dogs. Mick wanted the old style versatile curs that have almost been forgotten about. So while he had some luck with his Leopard Cur Ruby, he tried something a little different as well. Now on his third generation it seems to be working so make sure you listen about Mick's bearded bobcat, coon, squirrel, upland, and waterfowl dogs! https://www.dusupply.com/hound-hunting-organizations/all-podcast-apparel.html https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime | |||

Terry tells the story of how he found Jug and how he inevitably sold him to John. We talk about the leopards, the hunts and a few other dogs along the way that Terry has had during his tenure as a coon hunter but we kept circling back to Jug. Jug has certainly made his mark on the leopard breed and it was about time I was able to uncover some first hand knowledge on him.

In this week's episode, I am joined by Kenneth Laroux better known as Chooch. Chooch has been following a dog in pursuit of some sort of game his entire life. Growing up deep in the swamps of Louisiana hunting and trapping were a part of his everyday life. As he got older coon hunting became his passion and especially with a fine black dog. Chooch has been in love with the breed ever since. We talk about breeding, hunting, and showing these hounds to improve a breed. Even if Black and tans aren't your preferred breed, you can learn something from Chooch.

| 25 Oct 2022 | 45. Old Stock with Outcast | 00:47:44 | |
After all the competition talk we switch gears and talk to a pleasure hunter. This wasn't intended to be primarily about "Old Stock" Mountain Curs but the conversation with Kyle Baker kept coming back to them. Kyle has coon hunted since he was 3 years old and has continued the tradition of keeping it a family affair. He now hunts with his wife and kids on a regular basis. They hunt anything that can tree a coon and have multiple breeds of hounds and curs.
