This show we do a throwback to our 100th episode where we talk with our two most important mentors ------ Our 100th show!  We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate this milestone than by having our two most important mentors on the show:  Mike Brown of the former Praesidium Group and Craig Douglas of Shivworks. Topics:   Meeting Mike in the mid 90s, how he became such an important coach and mentor to Eric and Aaron; how he pushed Eric join the TPI forums and to take ECQC.  The Twins becoming a host to Craig for multiple classes through the years and how that relationship led to training with others in the Shivworks collective.   TPI and its influence on the current multidisciplinary realm and how forums have transitioned to video and social media.  Is this good/bad?  Who are folks in this multidisciplinary realm whom both Craig and Mike recommend and what makes great instructors.  Lastly, we talk a little gear, P365s, red dots, and some other fun topics to close out the show.  Previous appearances of Mike and Craig Mike Brown Ep. 5 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/10923969 Ep 45 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/18674765 Craig's Ep 13 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/12326351 Ep 49 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/19725887 Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

This show we have two extremely pivotal guest, Sarah Adams and Dave “Boon” Benton.  They are both survivors of the 2012 Benghazi, Libya attacks and are authors of the book, Benghazi Know Thy Enemy, A Cold Case Investigation.   Many will recall the book “13 Hrs in Benghazi” and the Benghazi attacks themselves.  Boon was one of the CIA GRS contractor whom went to the aid of Ambassador Chris Stevens and his staff at the Benghazi Consulate, and later defended the CIA Annex against al-Qa'ida terrorist.  Sarah was a CIA analyst and the on the ground targeter for the Benghazi CIA Annex.  Sarah was also a Senior Advisor to the US House of Representatives Select Committee on Benghazi.  Contrary to popular media accounts, these attacks were not the result of an anti-Islam YouTube video per the Obama administration, these attacks were planned by hardened al-Qa'ida terrorist, with the Consulate attack ordered by the leader of AQ Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri.   In these attacks we lost four patriotic Americans:  Ambassador Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone “Rone” Woods, and Glenn “Bub” Doherty.  This investigation is to help bring these terrorist to justice.  Links to book, audio book, how to train with Boon and more… Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

This episode we have the Jerry Wetzel on the show.  This is long overdue!  Eric has been interfacing with Jerry for close to 20 years via online forums like Total Protection Interactive and social media.  He is a wealth of knowledge in weapons integration into the combat sports model yet completely from the context in the street environment.  Jerry is a preeminent expert in reductionist solutions for dealing with a knife in the real world.  Some of our most important mentors credit him with building a lot of what they do, Paul Sharp, Cliff Byerly and many more, yet Jerry humbly states that the exchange was mutual.  Just recently Eric finally was able to meet and train under Jerry at the Combatives Summit in Florida.  The material was outstanding, life saving information that is changing Eric's approach to knife defense.  For more info on Jerry: Knife and Self Defense Training - Red Zone Threat Management (rzthreatmanagement.com) centerlinegym.com Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

This episode we welcome Dr. Sherman House as an EvoSec repeat offender.  Dr. House draws from a life of experience in many endeavors.  From multiple college degrees, trauma medicine, surgical dentistry to serious firearms training.  We covered the continued attacks on the Second Amendment in Washington state with the egregious H.B. 1240 signed into law this year.  For the time being, this means alternative firearms formats for self-protection.  So Dr. House has begun utilizing and promoting the appropriateness of the lever action rifle.

This throw back episode we go back to show 38:  This episode we have the preeminent expert of Self Defense Law - Andrew Branca on the show. Arguably the only attorney in the nation that focuses purely on self defense law giving him expertise that all of us should seek. Andrew is also the author of the book, The Law of Self Defense, which will educate you on the principles needed to keep you out of legal trouble. It can not be over emphasized, if you use lethal force you WILL go through some form of legal proceedings, even if it is "cut and dry."  As gun owners the majority of us do not focus on being prepared for the legal fight, this lack of education can certainly affect our lives drastically and can result in spending the rest of our lives in prison.  Also in this episode the crew discusses Legal Assistance memberships and their efficacy.  Lastly, in the accountability section Eric speaks on his recent experience in taking and graduating from the Rangemaster Instructor Development and Certification course.   For Andrew's wealth of online sources, and to access his Q and A sessions:  https://lawofselfdefense.com/ The Law of Self Defense book:  https://www.amazon.com/Law-Self-Defense-Indispensable-Citizen/dp/1943809143/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2HBRIXMZNPIXC&dchild=1&keywords=the+law+of+self+defense+by+andrew+branca&qid=1605902265&sprefix=the+law+of+self%2Caps%2C215&sr=8-2 Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.
