Sean Barry started hunting while growing up in Florida when his grandfather taught him how to shoot at .22.  Hunting has been a family tradition, a means to connect to his food, and declutter his mind from day to day modern obstacles.  He talks about his first elk, why birds are a great place to start, and why it's worth humans reengaging with the entire process of their food.

Dr. Juan Valdivia-Valdivia was practicing neurosurgery and knee deep in academia at the University of Michigan when he took his first freediving course in the Bahamas at the age of 39.  Immediately hooked, he joined a private practice in Tampa and made the move to Florida to be closer to the water. "Freediving isn't just a sport it's a lifestyle.  It's a shortcut to mindfulness.  You become free of thought and are just in the moment.  And there is nothing more beautiful than that." - Dr. Juan Valdivia-Valdivia
