Snakes, Stories, and Starting Again
Description
Wood Fired Herping is back.
In this relaunch episode, host Zeev explores what herping means today; from snakes and field ethics to food, conservation, and the culture that ties it all together. Whether you’re into reptiles, amphibians, road cruising, or just love stories from the field, this is where science, storytelling, and community intersect.
But this isn’t just a checklist of topics, it’s a fire.
A second fire sparked from ashes you thought were cold. A fire that lives in desert nights where headlights carve the dark, in monsoon storms that break the heat, in the smell of smoke and steaks after a slow night. It lives in the laughter, the mistakes, the patience of waiting for the snake that may never come.
This episode is about what Wood Fired Herping stands for now:
a space where food, field stories, and conservation aren’t separate threads but the same woven fabric; a space where humor can sit next to truth, and ethics emerge from the choices we make in the dirt, not from rules handed down.
If you’ve been here since the beginning, welcome back.
If you’re pulling up a chair for the first time, welcome to the fire.
