DENVER (January 7, 2026) – Sundays just got wilder with Sportsman Channel’s “Sunday Sportsman” lineup, which brings the thrill of the hunt and the beauty of the outdoors straight to the easy-back recliners every Sunday night from 8-11 p.m. ET. Packed with advice from trusted experts such as the Drury’s, Steven Rinella and Brian “Pigman” Quaca, plus incredible outdoor adventures, this weekly lineup is a must-watch experience.

Realtree’s Monster Bucks (8 p.m.): Realtree’s Monster Bucks is the same dream team of Realtree staff and their partners chasing trophy whitetails but now includes never-before-seen original footage and cut-ins of new content from Realtree’s partners.

Pigman: The Series (8:30 p.m.): Brian “Pigman” Quaca is a true-blue original, an unapologetic, high-energy host with a larger-than-life personality that has redefined outdoor television. With an unrelenting passion for the chase, Pigman takes on the world’s toughest hunts, using any legal means necessary to put game on the ground. While his reputation was built on hardcore hog hunting, don’t be mistaken-his skills extend far beyond wild pigs. From giant whitetails in the Midwest to red stag in New Zealand, Pigman’s fearless approach and raw authenticity make every hunt an adrenaline-fueled spectacle that keeps audiences coming back for more.

MeatEater (9 p.m.): Hunter, author, cook and conservationist Steven Rinella treks into the world’s most remote, beautiful regions, bringing game meat from field to table.

Dropped: Project Origin (9:30 p.m.): Over a decade ago, brothers Chris and Casey Keefer ventured north to the Brooks Range of Alaska to film ‘Dropped’ – a show that pushed the brothers’ mental and physical limitations to the very edge as they attempted to survive stringent and taxing conditions in the extraordinarily isolated Alaskan bush. Now, over ten years later, Chris and Casey journey back to where it all began – to discover if their drive to survive has remained the same, to see if they still have what it takes to provide for their own basic human needs, and to not only survive but thrive in the far reaches of America’s Arctic wilderness.

The Gamekeepers of Mossy Oak (10 p.m.): The Gamekeepers of Mossy Oak explores the intersection of science, hunters, fisherman, conservation and wildlife. The TV episodes correspond with the popular Gamekeepers podcast. Listen each week for a deeper dive.

Winchester & Drury’s Natural Born (10:30 p.m.): Experience the ultimate connection between man and nature with Winchester and Drury Outdoors Natural Born! Whether you love fired-up gobblers, monster whitetails, or Western adventure, Natural Born immerses you in the beauty of nature and the raw authenticity of the hunt. We were born for this!

Jimmy John and Waddell Reveal Keys to Business and Hunting Success in New Episode

DENVER (January 5, 2026) – Jimmy John Liautaud, the founder of the iconic sandwich chain Jimmy John’s, joins his good friend and hunting buddy Michael Waddell on the latest episode of The Michael Waddell Podcast, presented by Spandau Arms and in partnership with Folds of Honor, Cigars International, The Texas Trophy Hunters Association and Spartan Precision. The good friends sit down for a far-ranging, heartfelt conversation about Jimmy John’s early days, growing his famous sandwich chain from its first shop in 1983 to nearly 2,800 stores when he gave up controlling interest in 2016, as well as the business moves and personal philosophies that not only made him a billionaire restaurateur but also an outspoken American patriot, philanthropist, and hunter-conservationist.

The Michael Waddell Podcast is produced by Outdoor Sportsman Group and is available widely on Outdoor Channel YouTube, MyOutdoorTV, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and OutdoorChannel.com, to name a few.

In this episode, Jimmy John tells the well-known story of how he opened his first sandwich shop in a converted garage near a college campus in Charleston, Illinois, and details the steps for amazing growth of that popular franchise. At the same time, he emphasizes the incredible hard work involved and the underlying inspiration that his inventor father provided, having survived and recovered from multiple bankruptcies before partnering with his son. “What came of it was my father got stronger, tougher, better,” said Jimmy John. “My father said I’ll never have debt again, and you pay for everything; even more so, when I opened my first Jimmy John’s store my dad gave me a check book, and he put $25,000 in the check book, and it had a ledger, and he said, ‘Son, you pay for everything C.O.D, and you keep this check book, and that way you live in reality.’”

That’s exactly what Jimmy John did. He saw what made the ledger go up and what made it go down and he got really good at math, and he got really good at running and expanding his business, too! But while there isn’t much Jimmy John can’t afford these days, his measure of wealth probably isn’t what you think. For him, it has been about his life’s journey and the people he has brought along the way. “My joy,” Jimmy John confided, “came from people [franchisees] wanting to do this and helping people win and helping them make a lot of money, and helping them be successful. ”

For Jimmy John, hunting and conservation also have been central components of his life’s journey. First introduced to hunting in the early ‘90s by Troy and Jay Link (of Jack Link’s Beef Jerky), Jimmy John has since invested a significant amount of time, money, and effort in pursuit of, and conservation of, high country species like sheep and goats. “What hunting did for me, and especially sheep hunting, is it expanded my capacity to be uncomfortable…it gave me that perspective, let alone meeting the most amazing people in the world. Hunting has brought a lot to me, a lot of soul, a lot of connection to the Earth.” Now Jimmy John is sharing that connection with everyone around him, and anyone who will listen.

“I can’t express enough how much I appreciated the time Jimmy John spent with us,” said Waddell. “I love his transparency and his willingness to share his ‘secrets,’ whether it’s a family recipe, how to make money, his philosophy on life and philanthropy, or his big picture approach to all kinds of hunting and conservation. He’s a true American treasure!”

The Michael Waddell Podcast releases new episodes every other week.

Waddell’s story began in the backwoods of Booger Bottom, Georgia, where he grew up surrounded by nature, family, and a love for the outdoors. A self-proclaimed “rowdy redneck,” his passion for hunting and storytelling led him to win a Realtree turkey-calling contest, which launched his career in the outdoor industry. From guiding and filming hunts to creating hit shows like Realtree Road Trips and Bone Collector, Waddell has become a beloved figure in the outdoor world.
