On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors Podcast, Sheldon sits down with Wisconsin land manager and conservation advocate Doug Duren for a grounded, honest conversation about land stewardship, whitetail management, Chronic Wasting Disease, and life on a working family farm.
Doug is widely known for his philosophy, “It’s not ours, it’s just our turn,” and he breaks down what that really means when you’re responsible for hundreds of acres of habitat, livestock, timber, and wildlife. The conversation dives into practical land management strategies that actually improve whitetail habitat, the realities and long-term concerns surrounding CWD, and how deer movement, carcass disposal, and hunting pressure all play a role in herd health.
Beyond the science and strategy, Doug shares what it’s like balancing farming with conservation, navigating modern pressures on rural landowners, and why stewardship has to come before ego. His perspective from decades of managing his family farm in Wisconsin’s Driftless region brings depth to the conversation and challenges hunters to think bigger than just the next season.
This episode isn’t just about killing bigger deer. It’s about responsibility, legacy, and making sure the land and wildlife are stronger for the next generation.

This week I’m joined by Jordan Sillars of MeatEater, the creator and host of the new investigative podcast Blood Trails. We dig into the stories behind the show, why true crime in the backcountry hits different, and how hunting knowledge, tracking, and time spent in wild places change the way these cases are investigated and told.
Jordan walks through what drew him to some of the most unsettling cases covered on Blood Trails, the responsibility that comes with telling real stories involving real families, and how the outdoors can both reveal and conceal the truth. We also get into the crossover between hunting culture and investigative journalism, and why these stories matter to hunters and non-hunters alike.
If you’re into thoughtful storytelling, the outdoors, and true crime with depth and respect, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of Saskatchewan wildlife and the balance between tradition, conservation, and policy.
