Episode 181 | Mar 10, 2026"The Old Version of Yourself Has to Die" | Josh Botha
Josh Botha showed up to his first precision rifle match with a blind-magazine .204 Ruger and no idea what he was doing. A decade later, he's a four-time Team Canada World Championship competitor, senior designer at MDT (Modular Driven Technologies), founder of the BC Precision Rifle League, and the man behind North Star Precision Training.
In this episode, Josh shares his journey from South Africa to England to BC, how archery led him into the precision rifle world, what it's really like inside MDT's culture, and the massive news about MDT acquiring Lone Peak Arms. We dig into the mental game of competitive shooting, the NRL Hunter format, wind reading, barriers to entry for new PRS shooters, the role of faith in business and life, and why one person stepping up can change everything.
Episode 179 | Feb 10, 2026Melt Your Face Off Hot Wing Challenge | The Wild Kitchen x Silvercore
This was supposed to be a hot wing challenge.
It turned into something else.
We sat down to take on a melt your face off hot wing challenge and ended up in a real conversation about food, marriage, work, ambition, comfort, and the choices that shape a life over time.
The heat ramps up fast. Talking becomes harder. Filters disappear.
We talk about building something from scratch, walking away from paths that look good on paper, raising kids with intention, food as memory, food as connection, and why comfort has a way of slowly pulling people off course.
This episode also introduces The Wild Kitchen Podcast, a show about food, authors, hunters, foragers, and people who still know how to make things with their hands and feed the people they love.
Nothing here was planned. Nothing was cleaned up to make it tidy.
If you’re into honest conversations, good food, and doing things the hard way on purpose, this one will land.
Episode 178 | Jan 27, 2026Silvercore Podcast 178 | Chris Butler
What looks obvious on video often tells the least important part of the story.
Chris Butler has spent decades inside high consequence decision making, as a search and rescue technician, a police inspector, a force science instructor, and an expert witness called into hundreds of use of force cases. In this conversation, we dig into how stress bends perception, why traditional training often fails under pressure, and how video evidence can mislead investigators, leaders, and the public.
We explore the difference between performance and learning, why mistakes are essential for real skill acquisition, how decision making degrades under stress, and what trainers, coaches, and leaders across any field can learn from force science.
This episode is for anyone responsible for training others, leading teams, or forming opinions based on partial information.
