228. Jordan Sillars - MeatEater: Blood Trails

This week I’m joined by Jordan Sillars of MeatEater, the creator and host of the new investigative podcast Blood Trails. We dig into the stories behind the show, why true crime in the backcountry hits different, and how hunting knowledge, tracking, and time spent in wild places change the way these cases are investigated and told. Jordan walks through what drew him to some of the most unsettling cases covered on Blood Trails, the responsibility that comes with telling real stories involving real families, and how the outdoors can both reveal and conceal the truth. We also get into the crossover between hunting culture and investigative journalism, and why these stories matter to hunters and non-hunters alike. If you’re into thoughtful storytelling, the outdoors, and true crime with depth and respect, this is an episode you don’t want to miss. Thank you to our sponsors:
