The Fowl Life

One shot is all it takes to damage your hearing, and most hunters do not think about it until years of gunfire have already taken something from them.
ESP owners Jeff and Sarah Thruston sit down with Chad to explain how their custom-fit electronic hearing protection protects against gunfire without shutting hunters off from everything happening around them.
Chad gets into the difference ESP has made in his own hunts. He can hear ducks and geese, trust the sound of his calls, communicate across the blind, and catch sounds from turkeys that other hunters never hear.
They break down custom fitting, hearing tests, wind suppression, volume control, comfort, product life, and why it is never too early or too late to start protecting your hearing.
The hunt is more than the trigger pull. It is the birds, the calls, the dog, the people beside you, and every sound you will wish you could still hear years from now.

Tony Marini has been part of the Reno rodeo world his whole life. His dad volunteered at the Reno Rodeo for decades. He grew up around the cowboys, knew the families, understood the sport, and now he's the guy Anthony Carano tapped to take Caesars Entertainment all the way into rodeo. Nobody's doing it like this.
Caesars Rodeo is launching this December, and the names attached to it will blow you away. Rocker Steiner is the face of it, Dusty Tuckness is part of the team, DJ Silver is doing nightly activations at Caesars Palace during NFR.
December 11th at PH Live is the night everything comes together in one room.
Tony sits down with Chad and holds nothing back. How this came about, why Anthony Carano is the reason any of it exists, what the vision looks like going forward, and why the crossover between rodeo, hunting, and the lifestyle this audience lives every day is more natural than anyone realizes.
This one's worth your time. And December 11th is worth your calendar.
