    <description>Welcome to Elk Don’t Exist: the pod!— the only comedy podcast brave enough to expose the shocking truth the forest service doesn’t want you to know: elk are a government hoax. Join host Dillon Deitz and your favorite hunters, both known and unknown, as they dive antler-first into outdoor misadventures, stories, and maybe even a tip or two. If you suck at hunting, you are welcome here. Whether you’re a die-hard hunter, comedy fan, or somewhere in between, this is your weekly dose of wilderness nonsense, questionable logic, and elk-denying hilarity.</description>

      <title>ShedCrazy - Elk Don't Exist: The Pod! with Dillon Deitz</title>
      <description>My guest this week is the Lever King himself: Ben Dettamanti but you might know him by the monicker ShedCrazy.  Ben is on a mission to tag every species of deer in North American with an open sight 30.30 lever-gun and I was privileged to help him find a stud whitetail here in Montana.  We had a blast recapping the hunt and making fun of each other.  Catch more of Ben at @shedcrazy on instagram and @shedcrazyofficial on youtube.
