A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Good listen everytime. Not filled with countless advertisers (being the quick pitch of course for Exodus Gear) like so many other podcasts that have literally ten minutes of promos. Great Host that allows guests to speak without constant interruption.

Update 01-26-24. Exodus has evolved into more then just a great trail camera company in the hunting industry. Still the best podcast and company out there top notch guys. Chad and Jake and all the great people involved with exodus have gotten better with every episode. The guest they have on every week might be someone everyone knows or someone that no one knows of yet. Also check out there YouTube channel and Whitetail Cribs Updated Review I have listen since day one and these guys are great. They will answer any questions you might have threw there social media. They also will take in listener summit questions. Top notch company and podcast I have learned something new on every episode. They will give you info that no trail camera company will ever tell you. I’m looking forward to getting a exodus camera and dealing with these guys. The host keep the podcast going with great topics and questions. I recommend this podcast for anyone.

I started listening to the podcast after I switched to Exodus trail cameras at our hunting property. I have taken several of,the practical tips and used at my farm with great success. They had a podcast on small watering holes. I didn’t think I needed them since we have 3 ponds. I put out a few to see what would happen and it is my favorite place for a camera outside of the rut. I feel like I pick up a tip I can use on about every podcast.

Ray Mountain outfitters · Jan 2024

Top tier hunting podcast! Always one of the first podcasts I look for when I’m looking for new episodes to listen too. I’ve learned a lot of trail camera strategies from listening to these guys and it has directly helped me become a more effective hunter!
