  Ep 122: Round The Fire Album 01.04.2026 56min

  Well, here you have it folks!! The World's first and only album dedicated to hunting in Africa. Each song specific to an animal, event or region within the Dark Continent.   I wrote the lyrics to each song and used AI to assist with the vocals and instruments. After many late nights, at least 10 - 15 versions of each track, tweaking the beats and finding the right rhythms to go with each song, I finalised the tracks and combined them to make the Round The Fire Album. You can find the time markers below for each song and their title.   ***If you do enjoy these songs, do me a massive favor and leave a 5* rating and review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. It's the least I ask***   The full album is available upon request, just send an email to the following and I will forward you a link to where you can download the tracks:  jonomchugh@gmail.com   06:42 DELTA BULL 10:22 WALKING WITH RUARK & CAPSTICK 14:42 BLACK DEATH 18:30 BROTHERS IN THE BUSH 21:46 LEOPARD ON A LIMB 26:09 GREY GHOST 30:11 BLUE HAIRED WARRIOR 36:00 DARK KNIGHT 39:37 KALAHARI BROTHER KILLERS 44:51 THEY DON'T GET IT 49:15 EASTERN CAPE EDEN 54:09 ROUND THE FIRE

  Ep 120: Wounded Animal - Your Role As Hunter 18.03.2026 1u 6min

  It's the one thing every hunter and PH dreads on a hunting safari, a wounded animal! Tensions begin to rise, panic sets in, everyone becomes to come up with different theories as to what happened and before you know it, a bad vibe sets in that can ruin the entire trip.   When it comes to a wounded animal, everyone has their job. The trackers get to work following the animal and the PH keeps his eyes peeled and his head on a swivel in case the animal shows face again. But what role can and does the hunter play in a wounded animal scenario? In this episode, I answer that question and add a few pieces of advice that could help prevent this feared outcome.   Enjoy!   If you want more episodes like this, you can search the following: Hunting Africa Hunting South Africa Buffalo Hunting Kudu Hunting South Africa Hunting Africa Hunting

  Ep 115: Trackers & Skinners Etiquette 11.02.2026 53min

  Don't be fooled into thinking that the PH and Outfitter are the only role players in you having a successful hunting safari. While they are extremely important, the real people in the engine room driving the success of the trip is the trackers and skinners.   These are the men we call on when the brown stuff hits the fan, they are the ones we rely on to find those valuable animals, they are the ones that roll up their sleeves and carry out the necessary dirt jobs that lead to you having the trip of a lifetime. So, how to treat them, how you interact with them and ultimately the way in which you conduct yourself around them...will determine the level of achievement you will have on your hunting safari.   Hey, do me a solid and please leave a review and rating on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you enjoyed this episode.
