Mental health and firearm ownership is a complex topic to navigate and on this episode I chat with Glen who went through a mental health issue and lost his access to firearms. As a result, Glen made it a personal mission to change how the government treated people in this situation. I'm thankful for people like Glen and his team from Mental Hunts for bringing the focus on this topic in such a measured approach. While they are based in NZ it's still inspiring to hear what they are achieving in changing the mindset of those put in charge to police our weapon ownership. It gives hope that change can be effected in Australia so firearm owners are not faced with similar issues. @mentalhunts or find them on YouTube. On the 'Friend of the Podcast' segment I travel up the road to the Sunshine Coast and meet up with Matt from RMK Leatherworks. Matt has a hunting background and he and his team make some damn fine leather products - some for shooting/hunting and many other needs outside of this. @rmkleatherworks https://rmkleatherworks.com I would also ask you to support the 2024 podcast partners; Skeleton Optics - @skeletonoptics_au ⁠www.skeletonoptics.com.au⁠ On Track Meals - @on_track_meals ⁠⁠⁠www.ontrackmeals.com⁠ Anyone with ideas for future episodes, or just a chat around backcountry/backpack hunting - please feel free to reach out. @australian_hunting_backcountry [email protected] Thanks for listening - look after yourselves and your mates.
