Episode description

We finally got Dillon Deitz on the show, and we spiraled straight into bear season heartbreak, spiritual introspection, and some of the funniest roasts he's done as a practicing comedian. Dillon the brains and banter behind Elk Don’t Exist, a counterculture hunting brand born from missed shots, public land grind, and the realization that pretending to be a badass makes hunting a lot less fun (for him). We dive into his Montana bear season, the mental game of hunting, and how being honest about your screw-ups, your faith, and your potentially offensive jokes is the real badge of honor in the woods. We also get into: Why humor makes hunting better What it’s like building a brand that doesn’t pretend to be elite The hilarious (and sometimes unhinged) comments Dillon fields online Stoicism, Jesus, and that one time a homeless guy humbled an emperor The power of self-deprecation, Deer Camp comedy, and just being yourself If you’ve ever missed a shot, doubted your place in the hunting world, or wondered if your goofy, camo-wearing self belongs, you’re not alone. You’re in damn good company among our two brands. 🎧 Elk Don’t Exist apparel: www.elkdontexist.com 📺 Watch the full conversation and join live next time: Tuesdays @ 6PM CST 💥 Presented by Nosler: Use code OHP at checkout!
