How Mark Kenyon turned passion for hunting into a career while protecting public lands and wildlife for future generations.
Mark Kenyon built Wired to Hunt from a simple blog into one of the most influential voices in whitetail hunting, podcasting, and conservation. This conversation traces that path from early days learning HTML and writing daily with no income, to launching a podcast before the outdoor industry understood the format, to eventually joining MeatEater and shaping national conversations around public lands and wildlife policy.
There’s a clear throughline for anyone chasing a career in hunting media or outdoor storytelling. Consistency matters more than talent early on. Developing a unique voice is critical in a crowded space. And long-term success comes from stacking small daily wins, not chasing overnight growth. Kenyon also breaks down the evolution of hunting content from early whitetail media and VHS tapes to today’s digital ecosystem, offering practical insight for aspiring creators.
The conversation moves beyond content into conservation, including the importance of public land access, the reality of policy battles, and projects like the Tucker Town Game Lands initiative. It closes with a look at modern conservation storytelling, large-scale wildlife restoration, and a western bison hunt that brings it all full circle.
