Hound Dog Network - Houndsmen and the Appalachian Flood

Sportsmen's Empire - Western Big Game Hunting

Jones describes first hand what it’s like to see entire towns, bridges and highways swept away with no warning. This frank conversation exposes the insensitivities of those outside the region and the shear hopelessness felt by citizens of the region, many of them hound people themselves.

Jones describes the devastation and recounts the terrible tragedy as a fellow coon and bear hunter on a rescue mission with his boat is swept under a bridge and has not been seen. It’s not the average feel-good episode but it does reveal the importance of living each day as if it is the last.

I felt it important to do this podcast at this particular time if for no other reason than to bring help and comfort to those that are so badly in need. Jones emphasizes the importance of looking to those nearby that may need our help and doing what we can for them first. It’s a sobering episode but one that we all need to hear at this very difficult time.
