In this inspiring episode of the Silvercore Podcast, Travis Bader sits down with former CFL player Joe Eppele, who made the bold decision to leave behind a lucrative football career to pursue his true passion for the outdoors. Joe opens up about his transition from professional sports to a life centered on hunting, conservation, and personal fulfillment.

He shares behind-the-scenes stories from his TV career with Wild TV, the unique challenges of filming hunts, and the joys of foraging and mushroom hunting. Joe also discusses the critical work of the Wild Sheep Society of BC, the importance of preserving wildlife, and his vision of blending fatherhood with outdoor adventures as he introduces his son to the wild. Packed with wisdom on resilience, purpose, and living life on your own terms, this episode offers something for everyone—from outdoor enthusiasts to those looking for inspiration in their own life journey.
