Matt and Kyle flap into a feather ruffling adventure at a park that’s got more controversy than a goose in a golf course. Between dodging debates and snapping photos, the duo dish on what it’s like to birdwatch where opinions fly faster than pigeons at a picnic.

The real headline? Kyle’s legendary two-owl day. That’s right, double the hoots, double the bragging rights. Expect plenty of banter, photo talk, and a few questionable jokes about whooooo really stole the show.

It’s birds, laughs, and a dash of chaos—classic Angry Bird Pod Show.

Kyle and Matt are back with another delightfully chaotic episode of The Angry Birds Pod Show, kicking things off with a surprisingly deep dive into the world of Crocs...are they fashion, function, or just foam filled folly? From there, Matt wrestles with lens loyalty as he debates whether to keep a piece of glass that’s been giving him mixed feelings. The duo also takes a closer look at the Canon R6iii, unpacking its specs, quirks, and whether it’s worth the hype for hobbyists and pros alike.

But it wouldn’t be an Angry Birds episode without a twist: this week, the guys dig into a potential AI-generated scam in the Bird Photographer of the Year competition. Is it clever tech or just foul play? As always, expect plenty of tangents, distractions, and off-the-rails banter that somehow circles back to photography, gear, and the occasional existential question. Tune in for laughs, lens talk, and a little bit of bird drama.

This week, Matt and Kyle welcome photographer and fellow gearhead Mark Bernards to the nest for a wide-ranging conversation that flutters between glass, gigs, and growing families. The trio dives into the world of specialty lenses—those niche tools that make certain shots sing—and debates the ever-blurry line between professional and hobbyist photographers. Whether you're chasing clients or chasing light for fun, there's plenty to chew on.

Of course, it wouldn’t be an Angry Birds episode without a few tangents. From the joys and chaos of parenting to how having kids reshapes your creative time (and your camera bag), we get real about balancing passion with responsibility. It’s a mix of tech talk, life talk, and the kind of banter that only birds of a feather can bring.

Matt and Kyle are back with another wildly entertaining episode of the Angry Bird Pod Show, and this one’s got everything from feathers to fries. They kick things off with a deep dive into the world of fast food—sharing cravings, critiques, and a few questionable choices that might make you rethink your next drive-thru run.

Then it’s onto the great outdoors, where a seemingly peaceful birding trip takes a turn for the unfortunate. Let’s just say not all birds are as welcoming as they look, and Matt might have a new nemesis with wings.

The duo also gets into a surprisingly passionate debate about photography: how small is too small in frame? Whether you're a pixel purist or just snapping for fun, this one might ruffle your compositional feathers.

And of course, it wouldn’t be the Angry Bird Pod Show without a generous helping of tangents. From roadside snacks to existential lens choices, Matt and Kyle let the conversation fly in every direction. Tune in and enjoy the chaos

🎧 Angry Bird Pod Show – Bird Chat with Richard Birchett

In this delightfully chaotic episode, Kyle and Matt are joined by filmmaker and gear aficionado Richard Birchett for a conversation that starts with car trouble and ends... well, somewhere far from where it began. The trio dives into the gritty realities of automotive mishaps—from mysterious dashboard lights to the existential dread of unexpected repairs—and somehow segues into the world of camera lenses, technique, and creative process. Richard shares his thoughts on new gear, what makes a lens truly special, and how technique can elevate even the simplest shot.

Midway through, the conversation takes a thoughtful turn as the crew compares the worlds of YouTube videography and traditional photography. They unpack the different mindsets, workflows, and storytelling approaches each discipline demands—how photographers chase the perfect still moment, while YouTubers often build narratives through motion, pacing, and personality. It’s a candid look at how the platforms shape the craft, and how creators like Richard navigate both worlds with style and intention.

But don’t expect a straight line from A to B. This episode is packed with detours, side quests, and glorious tangents that range from the philosophical to the absurd. Whether it's debating the merits of vintage glass, reminiscing about past projects, or spiraling into a discussion about the perfect road trip snack, Kyle, Matt, and Richard keep the energy high and the laughs rolling. It’s a perfect storm of insight, inspiration, and irreverence—just the way Angry Bird fans like it.

🎙️ Angry Bird Pod Show: Tangents, Tech & Backlit Birds

This week on the Angry Bird Pod Show, Matt and Kyle are back with a chaotic blend of birding banter and gear geekery. Kyle’s got a shiny new camera and he’s very excited about it—so expect some deep dives into settings, lenses, and why backlit birds are both majestic and maddening. The duo also hash out the eternal debate: aperture priority vs shutter speed priority, and whether Auto ISO is a gift or a trap.

Of course, it wouldn’t be an Angry Bird episode without a few wild detours. From strange DMs sliding into their inboxes to unexpected stories from recent bird outings, this one’s got everything—tech talk, field tips, and the kind of tangents that make you wonder how they got there in the first place.

🎙️ Angry Bird Pod – Episode 26: "Lenses, Laughs & 90s Flashbacks"

Matt and Kyle are back in the nest for another lively episode of Angry Bird Pod, and this one’s got everything from retro throwbacks to gear dilemmas. First up: a nostalgic trip to the 1990s. The guys reminisce about the era of cassette tapes, neon windbreakers, and the golden age of Saturday morning cartoons. It’s a blast from the past that sets the tone for some surprisingly deep reflections.

Then things get personal—Matt shares the story behind a recent photo that’s been making the rounds. It sparks a candid conversation about creative intent, audience reaction, and the weird ways photography can stir up unexpected emotions.

From there, it’s gear talk galore. Should they sell their RF 100–400mm lenses? The debate gets technical, philosophical, and just a little bit petty. Plus, they ask the question that’s been bugging Canon shooters everywhere: why hasn’t anyone released a new EF lens in ages? Is the mount officially dead, or just sleeping?

To wrap things up, Matt and Kyle tease an upcoming photography project that’s got them fired up—and they want your help. Whether you’re a seasoned shooter or just curious, they’re calling on listeners to get involved, share ideas, and maybe even collaborate.

📸 So grab your favorite vintage snack, dust off that old camera, and settle in. This episode is packed with nostalgia, gear geekery, and a whole lot of heart.

🎙️ Episode 25 – Drugs are Cheaper

We’re back from a short break and ready to ruffle some feathers! Episode 25 kicks off with a fresh batch of lens ideas—some practical, some wild, and some that might just make you rethink your entire setup. Whether you're chasing warblers in the woods or pigeons in the parking lot, we've got thoughts on how to get sharper, faster, and more creative with your gear.

Then we dive into a strange trend sweeping through bird photography Facebook groups: dozens of people posting the exact same bird over and over. Is it a coordinated campaign? A meme gone rogue? Or just a collective moment of avian déjà vu? We unpack the mystery and share our theories (some more plausible than others).

And finally, we react to a Tony Northrup video that had us doing double takes—not because of the content, but because of his absolutely bonkers camera-holding technique. Is it genius? Is it madness? Is it both? We break it down and try not to drop our own cameras in the process.

Expect laughs, hot takes, and a few spicy rants as we get back into the groove. The birds are angry, the hosts are caffeinated, and the pod is flying high again. 🐦
