The episode also shares vivid backcountry stories — hounds, bear encounters, GPS tracking and the risks of deep wilderness work — and offers practical resources for beginners (North American Pack Goat Association and PutnamPackCoats.com).

Anna Westcoat joins the podcast to talk about her musical upbringing, playing dozens of instruments, and honoring old-school country traditions while navigating modern platforms like TikTok and Spotify.

The conversation covers songwriting, performing, creative routines, balancing family and art, leatherwork and outdoors life, and the value of slowing down to appreciate community and craft.
