On this episode of the Bear Grease Render, Clay Newcomb is joined by his wife Misty, Josh “Landbridge” Spielmaker, Gary “Believer” Newcomb, Brent Reaves, and for the first time, Brent's wife, Alexis. The crew discusses Josh’s recent adventures in trapping coons, the newest episode of This Country Life, and Misty’s disdain for cats. Afterward, they begin dissecting the most recent Bear Grease episode that centered around the three men who helped shape the modern Mississippi River - Charles Ellett, Andrew Humphries, and James Eads, as well as the disastrous 1927 Flood covered in John M Barry’s book, Rising Tide.
