Future Female Leaders Endorses ‘District of Conservation’ Podcast. Yay!

I didn’t see this review of District of Conservation by Future Female Leaders’ Aryssa Damron until now, but I absolutely love it and think it encapsulates my podcast pretty well.

PODCAST REVIEW: Meet The Podcast Bringing Conservation Efforts To The Swamp https://t.co/eeJ8BMf4pb

Here’s a snippet:

Though the Washington, D.C. area is known for politics, entrepreneur and media specialist Gabriella Hoffman knows that there are some great outdoor activities in the area too. In her new podcast, District of Conservation, Hoffman highlights conservationists, hunters, and anglers who “thrive and survive deep in or around The Swamp.” She interviews lawmakers, storytellers, entrepreneurs, and other individuals who shape the region through their hard work.

…

She helps relate every issue to the present day and the general public, not just those of you with a bow slung over one shoulder or a fish hook on your pole.

Her most recent episodes talk about how conservation efforts and the desires of hunters, fishers, and gun owners may or may not be well-represented by some of the new representatives elected to the 116th Congress. Hoffman also appeared on the TIME magazine issue about guns from both the left and right, though she of course represented the pro-Second amendment side of the argument. Episode nine of her podcast talks about that experience and why it is so important to continue having these discussions across the aisle.

In episode six of the podcast, Hoffman talked to Joe Kondelis, the CEO of the Western Bear Foundation. As someone who knows very little about the west or bears, I was intrigued. It’s a solid interview and introduction to the foundation. It’s complete with an overview of what they do, what they don’t do, what their end goal is, and why they support big game hunting, which might surprise some of you based on their name alone. In that interview, they also tie recent legislation to broader issues of conservation, game management, and environmental reform, which is not necessarily a left or right issue but sometimes get pushed in partisan ways.
