Episode 205: Dr. Ken Riddle
This last episode of the Falconry Chronicles podcast ends on another great note. As stated in his first episode, Dr. Ken Riddle comes back to detail and highlight other important memories, as well as clarify and further detail other recollections that were covered previously. This is another truly special episode that details certain aspects of falconry in the Middle East that nobody would be able to do justice to describing unless they lived it. I'm very happy and thankful that Ken agreed to do this follow up, and I'm glad they'll be preserved forever.
As promised, all of my episode files have been given to The Archives of Falconry for safekeeping and preservation. Unless another source of funding comes up in the future or the demand for the podcast returns, this will conclude my podcast efforts. I hope that the endeavor has been worthwhile and current and future generations will be able to listen back to these stories and conversations from falconers all over the world and benefit from them for years to come. For those who have helped me along the way these past seven years, thank you again. I can't say enough that it takes all of us to sustain falconry and everything that comes with it, so I hope if nothing else, these episodes will continue to help in some way.
On that note, I wish you all success in your hawking and your own future endeavors, and in the words of some great falconers and people in general, I hope you keep striving for greatness and to leave falconry and the world a better place than you left it.
Happy Hawking!
