  • Podcast 177 - Michigan Green Way Conservation Club - GWCC Launch
    2026/08/03

    The Green Way Conservation Club is officially here! Learn more, use the free advocacy tool, or become a founding member www.greenwayconservationclub.com In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, Kyle, Jeff, Ryan, and AJ explain why they created the Green Way Conservation Club and how it can give Michigan hunters, anglers, trappers, and conservationists a faster, more effective way to make their individual voices heard. The club’s free advocacy platform helps users learn about important outdoor issues, identify the correct elected representatives and wildlife officials, and send a message directly from their own email account. Whether someone agrees or disagrees with the Green Way Conservation Club’s position, the system remains available for them to express their own view. The goal is to create a new town square for Michigan’s outdoor community. Hunters and anglers will not agree on every issue, but disagreement should not prevent anyone from being represented. The platform is built around open discussion, transparent opinions, individual participation, and direct communication with the people responsible for making decisions. Kyle and Ryan also share their experience working through the Michigan United Conservation Clubs proposal process and explain why they believe the state’s outdoor community needs an advocacy system that is faster, more accessible, and more transparent. The team then puts that approach into practice by examining two major Michigan issues. They break down House Bill 6008 and the debate surrounding a potential Michigan wolf season, presenting arguments from both sides before explaining the club’s final position. They also examine House Bills 5801 and 5802, including the controversy surrounding expanded commercial access to walleye, yellow perch, and lake trout in the Great Lakes. The Green Way Conservation Club is also being built to connect people with hands-on opportunities. Its upcoming Conservation Calendar will help Michigan residents find river cleanups, habitat projects, tree plantings, wildlife research, and other ways to actively support the resources they care about. Members will also be able to submit emerging concerns, participate in live discussions, receive outdoor-industry benefits, and pass unused equipment along to a new hunter or angler. This episode is ultimately a call for unity. A trout fisherman may not personally participate in bear hunting, and a deer hunter may not spend much time fishing, but every part of Michigan’s outdoor community has a responsibility to defend the others. The fight for conservation continues. The Green Way Conservation Club was created to make sure Michigan’s hunters, anglers, and conservationists have a place to speak, participate, and be heard. #GreenWayConservationClub #MichiganConservation #MichiganOutdoors #MichiganHunters #WildlifeManagement

    2026/07/30

    On this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, the crew brings back everyone’s favorite chaotic animal-fact game show: Wacky Wildlife Wonders. Jeff steps into full game show host mode, complete with a wig, whiteboards, strange prizes, and some of the weirdest wildlife trivia we’ve ever heard. Kyle, AJ, and Ryan try to guess which animals shoot blood from their eyes, sleep in mucus cocoons, smell like bananas when threatened, have human-like fingerprints, and somehow manage to be even stranger than they sound. From horned lizards and honeybees to hippos, koalas, owls, parrotfish, and colossal squid, this episode proves once again that the natural world is way weirder than anything we could make up. #gameshow #animalfacts #conservation #huntingpodcast #fishingpodcast Watch our HISTORY Channel show on: HISTORY: https://www.history.com/shows/the-green-way-outdoors & WAYPOINT TV: https://waypointtv.com/watch/the-green-way-outdoors Follow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGreenWayOutdoors/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegreenwayoutdoors/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/thegreenwayout?lang=en Youtube: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCjR5r6WwXcPKK0xVldNT5_g Website: www.thegreenwayoutdoors.com

    2026/06/11

    This week on The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we dive into the viral claim that deer antlers have “memory” and break down what science actually says about trophic memory and antler development. We also discuss the growing controversy surrounding Oregon’s proposed hunting and farming ballot initiative, concerns about chronic wasting disease, and what these debates could mean for hunters and conservation. Then things take a turn as we launch our new wildlife game show, putting the crew’s animal knowledge to the test with bizarre facts about sloths, octopuses, wombats, sea cucumbers, and some creatures you probably wish you never learned existed. Topics include: • Deer antler memory and trophic memory • Oregon hunting and farming controversy • Chronic wasting disease discussion • Sloths, octopuses, wombats, and other strange wildlife • The debut of Wildlife Wonders Watch our HISTORY Channel show on: HISTORY: https://www.history.com/shows/the-green-way-outdoors & WAYPOINT TV: https://waypointtv.com/watch/the-green-way-outdoors Follow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGreenWayOutdoors/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegreenwayoutdoors/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/thegreenwayout?lang=en Youtube: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCjR5r6WwXcPKK0xVldNT5_g Website: www.thegreenwayoutdoors.com

  • Podcast 171 - How Trees & Birds Think-Good Intentions Kill Crayfish
    2026/05/07

    In this episode, we discuss something that seems simple. Trees are one of the most familiar living things on Earth, but when you really stop and think about how they work, they start to feel almost impossible. We break down the science of how trees grow, what they are actually made of, and how something weighing thousands of pounds can seem to come from almost nothing. Then we dive into a sad story of good intentions gone wrong. An Englishwoman tried to save a crayfish, but somehow ended up killing it instead. It is a weird, funny, and surprisingly educational example of how good intentions in nature can sometimes go completely sideways. We also explore new science about how birds navigate across massive distances. From magnetic fields to visual landmarks to biological systems we are still trying to fully understand, bird migration is one of the most incredible examples of design.

  • Podcast 170 -One Buck Rule, APRs, Baiting? - Michigan Whitetail Deer -The Green Way Outdoors Podcast
    2026/04/27

    In this episode, we break down the real situation behind Michigan’s deer policies. The buck to doe ratio problem. The drop in harvest numbers. The science being used to justify new rules. And the growing frustration from hunters who feel like things just aren’t adding up. Should Michigan move to a one buck rule for deer hunting? We break down one of the biggest debates in Michigan deer management right now. The conversation covers the Lower Peninsula specifically and digs into the real issues hunters keep bringing up, including buck to doe ratio concerns, antler point restrictions, the bait ban, harvest numbers, hunter satisfaction, disease concerns, and whether Michigan is actually creating better deer management or just adding more restrictions. We talk through the major sides of the argument. Some hunters believe a one buck rule would help create more selective harvest and improve the age structure of bucks. Others believe an earn a buck system would make more sense by requiring doe harvest before buck harvest, which could more directly address the imbalance between bucks and does. We also get into the argument over APRs, how they work in Michigan now, and whether they truly help improve buck quality or simply protect deer with poor antler traits that should not stay in the breeding pool. We also dives into the controversy around the Lower Peninsula bait ban and the belief that reduced harvest numbers may actually be making Michigan’s deer issues worse instead of better. Kyle explains why he believes any serious deer management plan has to stay consistent with the science being used to justify it. If the concern is disease spread and overpopulation, then the state has to look honestly at whether current rules are helping hunters remove enough deer from the landscape. Along the way, we talk about hunting ethics, managing wounded or genetically poor deer in the field, how different Michigan regions should be treated differently, why hunter input matters, and why accurate deer reporting is critical if the DNR and hunters are ever going to get on the same page. This is a real conversation about conservation, deer management, hunting culture, regulations, and what the future of Michigan deer season should actually look like. If you care about Michigan deer hunting, whitetail management, the DNR, APRs, the bait ban, doe harvest, trophy buck potential, wildlife policy, or the future of hunting in the Midwest, this is a conversation worth hearing. Watch the full podcast and join the conversation in the comments. What makes the most sense for Michigan: one buck rule, earn a buck, APR changes, bringing back baiting, or a totally different solution? #MichiganDeerHunting #OneBuckRule #WhitetailDeer #DeerManagement #MichiganDNR #APR #BaitBan #BuckToDoeRatio #EarnABuck #WhitetailHunting #DeerSeason #HuntingPodcast #Conservation #WildlifeManagement #TheGreenWayOutdoors
