Presented by Georgia Farm Bureau, the first episode of The Field Notes Podcast in 2026 is teeming with great stories and info. Travis "T-Bone" Turner joins the show to discuss his exploits in the outdoors, thriving after a cancer diagnosis, and his love of archery. Jake Rowe and Braelin Smallwood also tell the stories of a 24-point Seminole County monster and an impressive bow buck that was first spotted on a doorbell camera.

The last Field Notes Podcast of the year features a look ahead from the GON crew and another fun interview with an expert with the Georgia DNR. Kimberly Lee, Braelin Smallwood, and Jake Rowe gather to discuss what they want to accomplish in the outdoors for 2026—from trying something new to doing more of what they love. GON also connects with I.B. Parnell to discuss upland game birds, how to help manage the population, and CWD.

The Field Notes Podcast uses Episode 10 to, once again, highlight the greatness of the Georgia Outdoors. The show begins with Derrick Debout's incredible hog harvest with a traditional bow. He entered the woods hoping to take a deer, maybe even a bear, but came out with a massive boar that he took down from just 14 yards away. Hosts Kimberly Lee and Jake Rowe use the Christmas Eve episode to discuss the gifts that 2025 has given them and show thanks for what they've experienced in another year. They also connect with UGA Aquatic Resources expert Emma Brown, whose father, John, owns Pistol Creek. She talks hunting, fishing, and what she is currently researching in the Peach State water.
