Hal goes south to meet old friends in the hurricane-battered backcountry of north Florida and talk about survival, spears and slingshots, pit bulls, blacksmithing, baskets, knives and traps, and that place where function becomes inseparable from art. Podcast guest Madison Parker was a U.S. Navy SEAL for 12 years and now teaches survival skills, homemade weapons and primitive hunting skills to SEAL teams and other military and civilian clients from his home base on the Chipola River near Marianna, Florida. Madison is a native son of what has been called Florida’s Forgotten Coast and the founder of Bulletproof Primitive Supply.
