The Father & Son Field Guide
The Father and Son Field Guide is a weekly podcast hosted by 8-year-old Walker and his dad, Ryan. Together, they explore big questions, small lessons, and everything in between—from “Why do people quit when things get hard?” to “What does it mean to be brave?”
Each 40–45 minute episode is packed with real conversations, laughter, kid-approved jokes, surprising fun facts, and thoughtful reflections on growing up, learning together, and being human. It’s a podcast for curious kids, caring parents, and anyone who loves honest questions and meaningful moments shared around the metaphorical campfire.
Whether you’re on a car ride, winding down for bed, or just looking for something uplifting and real, grab your field guide and come along. There’s always something new to discover.

This week on The Father and Son Field Guide, we welcome Walker into the Legion of Turkey Killers as he shares the story of his very first turkey harvest. From the moment it all came together to the emotions that followed, we dive into what it really feels like to take your first animal—excitement, hesitation, nerves, pride, and respect for the hunt. We walk through how it happened, what he was thinking in the moment, and why it’s something he’ll never forget. It’s an honest, real conversation about hunting, growing up, and appreciating the outdoors.
And of course… it wouldn’t be our show without a few laughs and some classic jokes mixed in along the way.
