Corey and Kaj Podcast presented by Cedar Run Decoy Company

Corey Lucas and Kaj Carlson are joined by Mike Clements and Wally Schalau to talk dog training and the Super Retriever Series. These guys are working hard to provide an awesome experience for trainers and their dogs to test their retrieving skills at Brandon Cerecke's (BOSS Shotshells) "duck farm" in White Pigeon, Michigan.
Mike guides us through the background, agenda, and culture of the Super Retriever Series. He also introduces us to the Cerecke (BOSS Shotshells) duck farm, where Mike manages the wildlife habitat and seems to be born to build a duck wonderland there.
We then settle into a lengthy discussion with one of the hardest working dog trainers in the business, Wally Schalau from Southern Oak Kennels - North. We get a ton of our questions answered and Wally provides us some clarity on some main training topics such as; force fetching, e-collars, etc.
We could have sat there all day asking those guys dog training questions...but we kept it under two hours for y'all!
Come check out the Super Retriever Series event July 14 -16, 2023.

Episode #23: Optics & Band Life with Vanguard's Jay Hathaway

Corey Lucas and Kaj Carlson are joined by Jay Hathaway from Vanguard to talk about optics. Jay gives us the skinny on the optics industry, and as usual Corey and Kaj take him down a rabbit hole to talk "the band life" and the reputation punk rock bands have to throwdown,
Vanguard's origin story is unique and their dedication to providing quality glass (ie. binoculars, digiscopes, spotting scopes, monoculars), stands, and shooting sticks are definitely worth looking into... no pun intended.
This enjoyable conversation we have with Jay is topped with a "bad band photo" of the men dressed in black.

Episode #25: Ducks, Turkeys, and Supercars with Heath Hoogerhyde

Corey Lucas and Kaj Carlson sit down with Heath Hoogerhyde to talk about something seemingly unrelated to waterfowl...supercars. Listen as we connect the two topics as they make up a large part of "Hoogs" life outside of his family.
Hoogs Customs specializes in detailing some of the finest cars in the region and beyond. We discuss how the business grew and talk about some of the highlight cars his crew has worked on.
We cover his chase for the 41+ species of huntable waterfowl in North America, as well as his love for hand-carved decoys.
We finish it up with what always seems to sneak into our conversations... turkey hunting.
