A Podcast for the everyday citizen, interested in preparation, shooting, planning and accountability. Features a broad range of guests, topics and discussion points, as well as current events pertaining to tactics, training, preparation, and individual capability.
Sometimes, we can be our own worst enemy. We can simultaneously have a burning desire to improve ourselves and develop greater individual capability, while being the single greatest blocker on our own road to achievement. All of us, regardless of skill, regardless of experience, will find ourselves in a rut. Finding ways out of those slumps, persevering and overcoming those challenges, can be somewhat difficult as they often manifest themselves in abstract ways. In this episode, I dive in and share some stories and experiences behind how I've been able within my own training to keep things fresh, and mix up the approaches to some of the core concepts and principles that we all train on regularly. If you're working your way out of the winter blues, and want a fresh perspective on how to get back on track, give this a listen! Visit our sponsors!

Precision shooting has become a recent interest of mine, and as I get deeper and deeper into the subject matter, I'm realizing that while it's the same as all other shooting, it's also very different. More so in the precision application than most others, your rifle's makeup and construction can have tremendous impact on your relative level of success. So, to truly dissect this issue, I've invited J.T. back to sit down and talk about what a good blaster should or shouldn't include. The internet has taken quite a liking to ideas like SPR's and GPR's and so with that, there's a tremendous about of "fluff" out there to deal with. We wade through the garbage, and bring to you all the valuable information that will aid you in your own build. It's never that you're able to buy true capability, but often enough, you can buy yourself better support. Give this one a listen if you've been pondering that new build for the year!

Rick Hogg is a 29 year Army Veteran, having spent most of that time in Special Operations. Since leaving our military, Rick has dedicated himself to sharing the lessons he learned, with those seeking to improve themselves. As owner of War Hogg Tactical, Rick has platform he's able to use to train both Law Enforcement and Civilians alike, who desire a higher level of personal capability, and accountability. In our conversation with Rick, we deep dive into training approach, mindset, and address many of the fundamental "why's" behind training methodology and how it impacts success. Using data to form complete goals and drive personal performance through dry fire and flat range sessions, Rick has found a unique way of sharing his knowledge in perhaps one of the most constructive and repeatable ways in our community. If you're looking for insight to help shape your practice, or perhaps just a fresh perspective, this is a episode you'll absolutely geek out for. Visit our sponsors!

March is upon us, the weather is warming up, and we have a new Director of the FBI. With all of this, and even more going on, it's obviously time for another SITREP to bring current events and awesome opinions to all of you. In this iteration, we of course take time to talk about Director Patel being confirmed as the next Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations, and also as the acting Director of the ATF. Both of these carry significant importance and impact, and we take time to talk about what has led us to this, and what it may mean in the long term for Americans. Additionally, I give insight into the recent visit to the White House by Zelenskyy as he swings through town to beg for money (again) and also some notes on most recent developments on the Israeli front, in their fight with Hamas. As usual, lots of info, and even more opinion. Visit our sponsors!

Artificial Limitations. False Confidence. Self Imposed Barriers. These are all issues that plague many of us in the preparedness community, and too often they can be easily traced back to the quality of our mindset, and the caliber of our individual training. Being more adaptive, or perhaps even simply willing to adapt, can have exponential impacts on our individual growth and development. In this episode, I dive into the idea of moving beyond the fundamentals, past the basics, and talk about how we build beyond the core concepts in ways that will make us more capable, more effective individuals. Both on and off the flat range, there are plenty of opportunities that we all can take advantage of to be better prepared. Simply thinking one step past our initial response/reaction, or taking the time to ask "what if" can lead us to some advantageous training ideas, that yield worthwhile benefits. Visit our sponsors!
