Season 1
After having spent time the last few weeks diving down the "edc rabbit hole", I take some time to admit I was narrow on my scope of the subject originally. I've learned and found some pretty cool stuff out there, as well as a ultra support community of really cool folks dedicated to helping everyone learn and grow!
As a companion/continuation to our discussion on attention in episode 24, this week I talk about protection through inaction. We examine the concept of the gray man, and blending in, disappearing in plan sight. This is an idea that's gained a lot of traction and become much more mainstream in the 2A community within the last several years, and for good reason.
The holidays are a stressful time for us all, especially now during the pandemic. Let's take some time and talk about personal happiness, and personal health, to focus on getting to our goals, and enjoying our holiday season. We hit on friends, family, toxic relationships, and how your mental health and care can lead you to a healthier mindset.
I dish about the media, talk about the rising crime in major cities, and rant a bit about personal accountability.
As the holidays approach, I take time to talk about situational awareness, and where your personal attention falls. Things like trips to the mall for holiday shopping, out the grocery store, or friendly outings to the bar or a dinner are all situations that we take for granted. I look at things like exit strategies, what to do and how to prepare for what you might come across, and share a couple personal experiences too.
This week, we get back to it, and talk about building your own rifle. From tip to butt, we talk about the thought process, the available options, the uses for each, their pro's and con's, and much much more!!
In the wake of election day, I discuss what we've seen in just the few hours past the polls closing. We talk what has happened in the swing states, what is yet to come, and a bunch more.
This week I discuss so more prepping, and we talk about the situation we as Americans are facing, in regards to the possible fallout from the Election. Rioting and Looting have almost become "normalized" and the public is quickly losing it's outrage over this behavior. Will we see something similar after the results of the presidential election are announced?
My wife Lexy joins me this week, to discuss with me the growing number of new female firearms owners. More specifically, we talk about her experiences, what led her to buying his first gun, the concerns and considerations that women face in everyday carry that most men don't know or have to think about.
With gun purchases at all time highs, and so many Americans out buying their first firearms, we're taking a look at my purchases, the what's, and the why's. I walk through my various purchases, talk about my reasons and rationale behind each purchase at the time, and hopefully help some of you with your first purchases!
