Blazin’ Grazin’ and Other Wild Things is more than a podcast. It’s a record of knowledge, a tool for transformation, and a beacon for those who believe that good land management is as much about community as it is about combustion.
It honors the science while embracing the stories. It respects the past while equipping the future. And in every smoky anecdote, every carefully explained concept, it carries one message: that stewardship isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution—it’s a lifelong journey shaped by fire, forage, and a little bit of wildness.
If you haven’t listened yet, now’s the time. Because the land won’t wait. And neither will the next burn window.

Green Up and Burn Down: Growing Season Prescribed Burns - BGWT 111
This episode of Blazin' Grazin' and Other Wild Things dives into the often-overlooked yet increasingly valuable land management practice of growing season burns.
Hosts John Weir, Dr. Laura Goodman, and Dr. Mark Turner unpack the science, history, and hands-on experiences behind summer burns—explaining how these slow-moving fires are not just safe but also highly effective at controlling eastern redcedar, improving forage quality, and boosting wildlife habitat.
With anecdotes from the field and a healthy dose of humor, they explore why summer may be the best season for burning.
From managing risk and reducing liability to increasing the palatability of forage for livestock and wildlife alike, the team breaks down the data and dispels myths around fire's role in sustainable land management. Whether you're an experienced burner or just curious, this is a must-listen for landowners and managers in Oklahoma and beyond.
