About this episode
It’s a twofer, and this episode is part one of two simultaneously released episodes produced in collaboration with The Nature Photo Guys podcast. Hosts Ron Hayes, Jason Loftus and Mark Raycroft engage in a lively discussion with guests Joe Desjardins and Chris Gibbs of The Nature Photo Guys podcast. Joe and Chris are on the hot seat for this part as the BTW crew peppers TNPG with a multitude of questions about their similar addiction to wildlife photography. They share personal experiences, challenges faced while photographing wildlife, and delve into the dynamics of their podcasting journey. The episode is filled with humor, camaraderie, and insights into the world of nature photography. Part two flips the tables, and the interrogation continues only with the Beyond the Wild Podcast guys in the line of fire. Head over to youtu.be/2ERA5Jgl-VM to catch part two of this lively episode.
