MT Outdoor Podcast Part 2 Sneak Peek: The Battle for Big Sky Country

Ranchers, hunters, and the real-life drama you won’t find on TV—Part Two is here.

This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast, Downrigger Dale is back with Part Two of his no-punches-pulled chat with filmmaker Tom Opre, director of The Real Yellowstone—and no, it’s not about cowboy drama on TV. This one is about the real-life tension playing out across Montana’s farms, ranches, and wild lands. Opre digs into the growing pressure from big-money environmental groups, and how it’s impacting not just landowners, but hunters and anglers too. It’s eye-opening, it’s fiery, and it might just change the way you see the fight over Montana’s future. As Rigger says: you’ve been challenged—check out this sneak peek now, and tune in to hear the full episode on Saturday morning at 6:00am!
