Podcast Ep. 241: Rooster Road Trip Proves Nebraska Never Disappoints

On The Wing Podcast

This is the fourth episode of PF’s 14th annual Rooster Road Trip. Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by PF & QF’s Vice President of Marketing Andrew Vavra, Design Director Logan Hinners, and Social Media Strategist Nate Akey to recap the final day of this year’s adventure in Nebraska. Episode Highlights: The conversation starts with the group reminiscing around Rooster Road Trip’s origin story as an experiment for social media that has burgeoned into the PF’s largest online event and a driver of significant unrestricted revenue for the organization’s wildlife habitat mission. The crew also have some fun talking about the Threads social media mash-up around the launch of the films Barbie and Oppenheimer earlier this summer. Hinners and Akey talk about their young pup’s evolution as bird dogs over the course of the weeklong Rooster Road Trip and how wild birds are invaluable to their progression. And Vavra, the only person to have participated in all 14 Rooster Road Trip adventures, declares this year the “birdiest” Rooster Road Trip of all.
