Irving, TX – Outdoor America, the network for people passionate about outdoor sports and recreation, soon to be rebranded as Field & Stream TV, is proud to announce that Country Outdoors, the dynamic media brand founded by Australian host Mary O'Neill Phillips, is joining its growing lineup. This exciting multi-platform franchise will bring audiences 30-minute television episodes, an extensive archive of celebrity podcast content, and a brand-new weekly podcast, delivering an unparalleled blend of outdoor adventure, country music, and lifestyle content across broadcast, FAST, and digital platforms.
Since its founding in 2019, Country Outdoors has become recognized for its original storytelling, which celebrates hunting, fishing, conservation, country music, and the country sports lifestyle. Its flagship Country Outdoors Podcast, now an official production in partnership with the Field & Stream Podcasting Network, has featured top country music stars and outdoor personalities, including Lainey Wilson, Chipper Jones, Tracy Lawrence, Koe Wetzel, Parker McCollum, Larry Fleet, and Raelynn. "Mary and her team have built a brand rooted in outdoor adventure, music, and lifestyle storytelling that feels genuine and engaging. This partnership allows us to expand our multi-platform offerings while continuing to deliver high-quality, personality-driven programming that truly speaks to the heart of the outdoor lifestyle." Said Jamie Wilkinson, Executive Vice President of Outdoor America. Digital series such as Country Outdoors Adventures and the semi-live Turkey Tour take viewers and listeners on adventures across the country, highlighting both outdoor pursuits and community connections.
Through this partnership, Country Outdoors will expand its reach on Field & Stream TV, launching late January 2026, as a rebrand of Outdoor America. Fans will now have access to Country Outdoors' full slate of content, including television episodes, podcast archives, and new weekly episodes. "This partnership marks an exciting new chapter for Country Outdoors and for the community we've built over the years," said Mary O'Neill Phillips, founder and host of Country Outdoors.
Mary O'Neill Phillips, founder of Country Outdoors, brings 17 years of on-air experience across television, live events, and digital platforms. Based in Nashville, she has hosted red carpets, including the CMA Awards, and leads all Country Outdoors LIVE events, while actively supporting nonprofit initiatives in conservation and human dignity.
Zach Phillips, co-host and producer, brings extensive experience in outdoor television production and marketing, having produced major series including The Habit and The Crush. Together, Mary and Zach combine entertainment industry credibility with authentic outdoor storytelling, creating content that resonates with fans of both outdoor adventure and country music.
This collaboration positions Country Outdoors to bring its authentic storytelling and cultural content to a broader national audience through Field & Stream TV's distribution on FAST and broadcast platforms, celebrating the intersection of outdoor pursuits and American culture.
