On this episode of the Hunting Connection Podcast, I’m joined by Rick from Life Goes On Adventures.

Rick first caught my attention in the Hunting Australia Facebook group, where he shared a couple of his hunts. After a few tags from the community suggesting I get him on the podcast, I reached out—and he was all in for a chat.

Rick is a passionate outdoorsman and hunter from Queensland who is also paraplegic. In this episode, we dive into his story—his accident, the road to recovery, and how he’s adapted to life since. We also talk about how he continues to get out there hunting, fishing, and exploring, proving that nothing can hold him back.

Rick’s story is genuinely inspiring, and his passion for the outdoors is something else.

On this episode of the Hunting Connection Podcast, I’m joined by Dan from Hunters Reward Co. We chat about how it all started, what drove him to build it, and his passion for hunting and the Aussie hunting community.

Hunter’s Rewards is built by hunters, for hunters — a membership-based community rewarding hunters and fishos for doing what they already love.

We dive into the roots of hunting in Australia, the lifestyle, the mateship, and why bringing the community together matters now more than ever.

Members get access to monthly giveaways, exclusive discounts, gear deals, and a growing network of like-minded people — all while supporting Aussie businesses that back the industry.

It’s not run by suits — it’s built by someone living the lifestyle.

On this episode of the Hunting Connection Podcast, I’m joined by Shaun from the Australian Recreation Union (ARU), who represents South Australia. We sit down to talk about the upcoming South Australian election and why it matters for hunters, shooters, and outdoor recreation users across the state.

Shaun breaks down how the voting system works, how preferences actually flow in South Australia, and why it’s important for voters to understand exactly where their vote goes. We also discuss which political parties are showing support for firearm owners and recreational users, and which ones clearly aren’t standing up for those rights.

It’s an honest conversation about the current political landscape, the importance of being informed before heading to the ballot box, and why unity across the hunting and shooting community matters now more than ever.

If you’re a hunter, shooter, fisher, or someone who simply values outdoor recreation rights in Australia, this is a conversation worth listening to before election day.
