Episode 100: Alberta Hunting — Past, Present & Future with Lee Foote & Matt Besko
Description
We’ve hit a milestone! For our 100th episode, Brad Fenson is joined by two of Alberta’s most insightful and entertaining hunting voices — Lee Foote and Matt Besko.
From wildlife management debates to the lighter side of hunting culture, this conversation blends humour, experience, and a deep passion for the outdoors.
The trio tackles:
•Alberta’s hunting heritage and how to keep it fun.
•The hang your meat or not debate (and why it still stirs the pot).
•Mule deer management — simple levers vs. complex systems.
•Changing perceptions of wild game through the table, not the field.
•Social media’s impact on new hunters and hunting culture.
•The future of hunting access, demographics, and public perception.
Whether you’re here for the laughs, the food talk, or the hard truths about conservation, this milestone episode celebrates what makes Alberta’s hunting community so special — and what it will take to keep it that way.
