About this listen

Welcome to Busted Knees and Pretty Trees, the podcast where the trail dust never settles! Hosted by Travy J, Brad, and Paddy – three outdoorsmen with a passion for all things wild – we dive deep into the world of nature, backcountry adventure, and wilderness living.

Whether you're a seasoned hiker, curious birder, backcountry hunter, weekend canoe tripper, or just someone who finds peace under an open sky, this podcast is your campfire conversation. Each season, we talk gear, share stories, swap survival tips, and celebrate the beauty and challenges of spending time in the great outdoors.

We also sit down with fascinating guests from all walks of life – conservationists, wildlife experts, guides, and everyday folks who have chosen to make nature a central part of their lives. Together, we explore how they connect with the wild and what they're doing to protect it for future generations.

If you love the crunch of leaves underfoot, the call of a loon at dawn, or the satisfaction of sore legs after a long day on the trail, then you're in the right place.

Busted Knees and Pretty Trees – where passion for the wild runs deep, and the stories are as real as the wilderness.

Available on all major platforms. Subscribe now and join us on the trail.

    This week on Busted Knees and Pretty Trees, we’re hanging out… literally.
    We’re diving headfirst into the world of hammocks — gathered ends, bridge hammocks, straps, underquilts, bug nets, tarp setups, and all the comfort (or chaos) that comes with sleeping between two trees.
    Is hammock camping better than tent life?
    What gear is worth it?
    What rookie mistakes should you avoid?
    Whether you’re a seasoned tree-swinging pro or hammock-curious and still sleeping on the ground, this episode has everything you need to elevate your camp game.
    Kick back, clip in, and sway with us — it’s time to talk all things hammocks.

    It’s round one of a two round game night on Busted Knees and Pretty Trees, and your host Travey J is leading us deep into the wild with something brand new: the official Trail Trivia Boardgame Adventure Challenge prototype. Yeah… it’s a mouthful—and it’s even wilder to play.
    We’re talking survival scenarios, backpacking know-how, trail wisdom, and just enough bad decisions to keep things interesting. Who’s got the skills to make it out? Who’s getting lost two questions in? And who’s about to argue way too passionately about the right way to stay safe during and earthquake?
    This episode is packed with laughs, friendly competition, and a sneak peek at a game that might just become your next campfire obsession!
