5K Duck Hunting Experience ft. Damian McAtee

5K Duck Hunting Experience ft. Damian McAtee

Author: Brian Ellithorpe October 13, 2021 Duration: 41:31

Today's guest is my best friend and hunting partner, Damian McAtee. We talk about the 5K hunting experience he provides, our past hunting stories and what we're hoping to accomplish this season. Hope you all enjoy!


Ever find yourself pulled in a dozen different directions by your own curiosity? That's the space where Too Many Hobbies lives. Host Brian Ellithorpe doesn't just collect pastimes like stamps; he digs into the practical reality of weaving them into a single life. You'll hear him talk through the specifics of his own pursuits-from the patience of retriever training and the strategy of hunting to the technical side of videography and the discipline of the weight room. But this podcast truly comes alive when it opens up to include the stories and methods of other dedicated hobbyists. Conversations explore how these passions, often spanning categories like nature, technology, and science, actually fit into our days and shape our perspectives. It’s less about finding a single obsession and more about appreciating the rich texture a life of varied interests can create. Each episode offers a deep dive into the mechanics, joys, and occasional frustrations of hands-on pursuits, asking what we gain when we choose to engage with the world through multiple lenses. If you've ever felt that your wide range of interests is a feature, not a bug, you'll find a kindred spirit in this show.
