    About this Episode

    Now when life as we know it changes, practically overnight, the supply lines that our society as a whole depends upon just for our basic needs to survive will be shattered and citizens will be forced to fend for themselves for food, water, and security in a new reality where there may be no grocery stores for food, no running water for staying hydrated, and no law enforcement or other security presence to keep the rule of law intact. This world is why we prep in the first place. And one of the ways that we prepare for these scenarios is by arming ourselves with one or more weapons that we can use to provide for ourselves and our families and protect us from the desperate masses of the unprepared, who could be a threat to our stockpiles and our safety. Now, for most people, any kind of firearm is going to come in handy for keeping you and your loved ones safe. But for those looking to take their arsenal and their skills to the next level, mastering the use of a long range precision rifle is going to be an extremely valuable tool to have in your toolbox. In this week's episode, we're gonna be talking about that first important step to mastering the art of long range rifle shooting, with tips on how to pick the best rifle for your arsenal, as well as what accessories are worth your investment to help you learn faster and shoot more accurately at farther and farther distances.

    A 10-Point Bugout Plan Review Of One Warrior's Journey
    The smartest preppers realize that you should constantly be reviewing your evacuation plan to find new, more efficient ways to level-up your gear and the actions you'll take when it's "go time" in a disaster. That why I love it when our followers and Academy members ask me to review their current prepping plans and offer my advice on ways they can upgrade their level of preparedness. And that's where I met Joshua, and in this week's show, I'll take you on a 10-point journey through the highlights of his plan so you can see where there may be some crossover with YOUR current plan - and give you some actionable advice that COULD just be the difference between you and your family reaching your Plan B bugout location safely... or being trapped with the other evacuees who were ill-prepared for the danger they didn't expect.

    Uh-Oh! I Just Tested My Bugout Plan And Here's What I Learned

    Uh-Oh! I Just Tested My Bugout Plan And Here's What I Learned
    You and I both know that MOST people don't even HAVE a plan to respond with their families to a "forced evacuation" scenario. And for those who DO, the vast majority have never "tested" it to confirm its effectiveness. Well, last weekend, I had a chance to test my OWN bugout plan when I drove out-of-state trip to a firearms course I was attending with some other preppers. This week, I'll share what parts of my plan WORKED - and what DIDN'T work as expected - in the areas of my ROUTE SELECTION, PACKING PLAN, NAVIGATION, FUELING UP, and dealing with DEAD STOP TRAFFIC... so YOU can learn from my own test results.

    Concealed Carry "Capsule Wardrobe" For Women
    Like most of the hairy-backed, knuckle-dragging, crotch-scratching men out there... I'm relatively hopeless when it comes to "fashion". But while I might not know the struggle of picking the perfect outfit that screams both 'chic' and 'I can handle myself,' I do understand that women face unique challenges when it comes to concealing a firearm for personal defense. You see, it's not just about finding the right holster or firearm. It's about being "armed" while remaining "elegant" - projecting confidence and "warrior-readiness" without sacrificing your femininity. Fortunately, for all the "women warriors" out there who follow our show, Natalie Strong is the perfect guest to help us unravel the mystery of fashion-forward, firearm-friendly attire for women.

    The recent hostage situation in Israel, where Hamas terrorists have abducted nearly 200 men, women, and children has brought more awareness to the need to be prepared for any threats of being taken against your will.

The skills you need to survive a hostage scenario aren't difficult to add to your Warrior Tool Box... but it does take a concentrated look at the dynamics of abductions to know what to expect... and a special set of tactics to escape your captors and evade them until you can make it to safety.

    What It Takes To Be A "Strong" Man - DefendersLive
    What does it take to be a "strong" man? Well, that's the question posed to a cop and two combat veterans by Lora Thorson, host (and strong female herself!) on the Defenders Live podcast roundtable. I'm not sure we have all the answers... but we all really opened up with our own personal experiences, the ups and downs, the wins and losses, and the challenges we face as "men" in being strong providers and protectors. Get an inside peek under the hood of some "strong men" (who aren't afraid to tap into their "soft man" side) and have a few laughs with us!

    How To Develop A "Modern Minuteman Mind-Set"

    How To Develop A "Modern Minuteman Mind-Set"
    In the late 1700's, there was a unique group of colonial settlers who were specially-selected... specially-trained... and ready to beat feet out the door with their musket and pack at a moment's notice to protect the colony from threats. They were the best of the best... the Minutemen! To them, the threats we prepare for today - like surviving a grid-down blackout... defending our homes, families and lifestyle... home medicine and first-aid care... these were all just "daily living". And this week, I have a special guest who's just released a book that brings the skills and mindset of these early warriors to modern times, and helps us all tap into our OWN inner patriot to THINK and PREPARE like a modern day Minuteman.

    "Strike Signals": How To De-Code An Aggressor's Silent Warning Cues Of An Attack

    "Strike Signals": How To De-Code An Aggressor's Silent Warning Cues Of An Attack
    It's a skill that's CRITICAL for first responders, or ANYONE who regularly finds themselves in situations where you're face-to-face with an aggressive individual who may - or may NOT - be a physical threat and attack you or someone you're with. And it's a skill that FEW civilians KNOW about... and even FEWER "get right", and it can have DISASTROUS consequences for them. I'm talking about the skill of being able to read another person's "body language", and even MORE specifically, their silent "attack cues" that can be a warning sign that a confrontation is about to get violent - allowing you to take fast, decisive action to either ESCAPE the situation or launch your OWN attack to preemptively STOP your attacker before he's able to gain the offensive advantage over you. This week's guest, Sean Grogan, has made STUDYING these silent "attack signals", and teaching them to law enforcement and civilians, his personal passion and mission and for our show, we're going to dig a LOT deeper into the science of how to decode a prospective attacker's hidden warning signs so you're never caught in a no-warning ambush that you COULD have seen coming.

    Building Self-Reliance To Survive Almost Anything (#469)
    So I got something a little bit different for you this week. I recently was a guest on the Defender's Live Show with Laura Thorson to talk about the importance of self-reliance and how to become less dependent on the systems that so many have become accustomed to taking for granted. Well, the conversation took a few turns along the way as I'm sure you've come to known that I'm prone to do from time to time. I really enjoyed the show. And this week, I would love to share this interview with you on the topic of building self-reliance in your life.
