There are various benefits this plant can provide, such as reduced stress and fatigue, which helps improve cognitive function and brain power. Studies have shown Rhodiola extract can have really positive effects on endurance sport performance and has proven to be quite useful for athletes. Background 1:06Stress 3:45Fatigue 6:08Sport performance 9:27“There've been a lot of other studies showing that taking anywhere from 500 mg of a standardized Rhodiola extract, standardized to 3% rosavins, or about 1500 mg of just Rhodiola extract not standardized had really good anti fatigue effects in sport performance athletes.” 11:02https://feelbrilliant.com/

Brandon Maddox, the owner and CEO of Silencer Central, joined me on this episode to talk about the ins and outs of silencers. We talk about the pros and cons of hunting with a silencer, how to get one, and how Silencer Central has revolutionized the process of obtaining a silencer to make the process as easy and as fast as possible. As I like to do, we dig deep into the details of both the legal side of suppressor ownership (to include traveling with one), the logistics of silencers like barrel threading, silencer maintenance, and the new E-Forms the ATF just started accepting that should make the process much faster than it used to be. Show sponsor: If you want to start this suppressor journey yourself and come along with me, go to thebiggamehuntingblog.com/silencer and you can get the ball rolling on your very own suppressor with Silencer Central where they'll help you with all the paperwork, set you up with a free NFA gun trust, and then ship your new suppressor directly to your door once they receive ATF approval.  Show Notes: https://thebiggamehuntingblog.com/podcast/suppressors-101/ What We Covered 1) Background on Brandon and how he got into the Silencer business. 2) Silencer vs suppressor 3) States where suppressors are legal to own and legal to hunt with. 4) The benefits of hunting and shooting with a suppressor. 5) How much suppressors actually reduce sound. 6) Recommended maintenance of a suppressor. 7) Legal process for purchasing a suppressor, how Silencer Central can make that process easier, and what the future might hold on that front. 8) Benefits of using a trust to purchase a suppressor. 9) Things to keep in mind when traveling with a suppressor to a different state as well as a different country and what happens when you move.

We'd stretched the conventional limits before, almost to the breaking point. We'd had books banned from GENCon and dropped by retailers and distributors nationwide. We'd had trouble explaining our rather gory work to our maiden aunts and in-laws. We had to ask ourselves a few tough questions.How would the 'For Adults Only" rating affect sales?Would we alienate younger players?Would we offend older players?Should we censor our products to 'give the hobby a good image?'Couldn't we accomplish the same level of horror and storytelling in a milder format?Would this 'new level' of horror gaming merely shock, or would it be what we reeally wanted: artistic exploration of disturbing themes and stories. In other words, would the new series be art?There were no easy answers. We decided to risk it (because that's how we think around here).First HoL appeared on your shelves, then Giovanni Chronicles I: The Last Supper. Freak Legion, Dark Reflections: Spectres, Destiny's Price and Giovanni Chronicles II: Blood and Fire soo joined them. And all this time, we're still a little nervous. The books were popular, it didn't seem we'd offended or alienated anybody (no more than usual, anyway) and we were certain that these stories and issues needed that level of depth and terror. But we still weren't sure if it was art."The AbrekBlight discussion, works Cited:-- Amy Chen's article on Abrek Blight in CGMagazine.-- Secretary of State of Chechnya defends Ramzov Kadyrov, President of the Chechen Republic.-- Ramzan Kadyrov : Brutal tyrant, Instagram star-- Editor & co-author of V5 Camarilla Guide Blog Freja Gyldenstrøm "Defense Against the Silence"-- Trump and Chechnya Last week Tonight Jon Oliver 9/17/2017Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/25yearsofvampirethemasquerade/posts)
