In this episode, Hunter Leavine sits down with Eeland Stribling, a comedian, middle school science teacher, former wildlife biologist, and fly fishing guide.

They talk about Eeland’s path into fishing and comedy, what bombing on stage has in common with getting skunked with clients, and why humor can help people step into harder conversations. They also get into race, identity, ego, social media, and the need for more spaces where people can think out loud, disagree, laugh, and stay in the room.
