We welcomed Abi (aka Whitetail Abigail), creator and host of The Grit podcast, to our little corner of North Wales. We sourced some wild food, cooked over a fire and recorded this podcast episode.

Abi is passionate about hunting and having more control over where her food has come from - and even more passionate about promoting women in wild food and fieldsports, giving a voice to what she sees as under-represented groups in this world.

As we sat in the woods (accompanied by the sounds of rural life and Abi's dog wandering around) Richard and Abi discussed some of the lesser-acknowledged social and political aspects of sourcing wild food in the UK. We talk in detail about starting a podcast, generational differences between Boomers, Gen X, Millenials and Gen Z, the surprising statistics of firearm ownership in the UK, Abi's experiences getting started in hunting, the perceptions of hunting as a townie, whether the North American conservation/hunting model could work over here, and the visibility of women in shooting.

We had a great time introducing Abi, Vic and Buck to Bilberries and taking Abi out to find some wild protein later on before cooking it all up and getting into some deep conversations.
