In this episode of Coffee in a Hangar, our guest Phil Shoemaker shares stories and lessons from his 50+ year long career. Here are a few topics you can expect!

1. How he accidentally became a big game hunting guide after just three days on the job — when his mentor was arrested for murder.

2. The pressure of flying high-paying hunting clients into remote areas, often right to the edge of what’s safe — and the hard calls that come with it.

3. Defending client’s from vicious bear attacks.

4. Close calls while flying in Alaska’s rugged backcountry.

Many of his lessons weren’t learned in books — they came from experience, and sometimes, just barely walking away.

Also, we are about to make some big additions to the coffee in a hangar brand. If you want to stay informed on possible live interviews, new merch, and something that just may have to do with coffee, Visit our website. Go to coffeeinahangar.com and sign up for our mailing list.
