Limb Junkies – Out on a Limb

In one of their most personal episodes yet, Bobby and Ian go deep on grief — what it looks like, how it shows up unexpectedly, and why men often struggle to name it. Bobby shares how picking up hunting again after years away brought a wave of unexpected grief for his late father, a Utah outdoorsman who first put a rifle in his hands. Ian opens up about losing Keith — his recovery mentor and the be...

Ian sits down with longtime friend and Mossy Oak Pro Staff turkey hunter Mike Rexrode to talk about one of the most important parts of hunting culture: passing it on. They dig into Mike's approach to introducing kids and new hunters to the turkey woods — from choosing the right gun and managing expectations, to teaching patience, ethics, and respect for the bird. Mike shares stories from hunt...

Ian and Bobby bring on their Vermont hunting buddy Chad for the first time to tell the story of how a chance introduction through Ian's wife's family turned into one of the most meaningful friendships Limb Junkies has made. They walk through the whole origin — from that first spring trip to the Northeast Kingdom where Bobby doubled up on Jakes and Ian spent four days chasing pressured lo...

Bobby recorded this one while actively stuck in a fight mode loop — three nights of broken sleep, no appetite, a twitching jaw, and a brain running at full speed going nowhere. Rather than wait it out, he and Ian sat down to record anyway, and the result is one of the most raw and honest episodes yet. They break down what chronic fight mode actually looks like from the inside — the slow burn versi...

Turkey season is around the corner and Bobby and Ian are fired up. In this episode they break down last season start to finish — opening weekend with Chad and his son in the Shenandoah Valley, a tough mid-season slog, a miss at 65 yards Ian won't soon forget, hunting on his wedding morning, and four Turkey hunting trips across Virginia, Vermont, and Pennsylvania. From there they look ahead to...

This episode gets personal. Ian opens up about what it actually means to be in recovery — the obsessive mind, the compulsive nature, and why those things never fully go away. He talks about how the outdoors became a healthy outlet for the same brain wiring that once drove his addiction: the need to control, the need to feel something, the constant obsession redirected toward scouting, prepping, an...

Bobby and Ian break down every hunt of the 2025 Virginia deer season from opener to late season — and it was Ian's best season in years. They cover the impact of a bumper acorn crop, hunting pressure from a government furlough, mentoring Ian's younger cousin, and the chaos of hosting their Vermont buddy Chad for two visits during muzzleloader and Thanksgiving week. Along the way there ar...
