Podcasts about modern self protection

The Book of Five Rings is a classic text on strategy and combat written by legendary samurai, Miyamoto Musashi nearly 400 years ago. Today I am joined by Mark Mireles to talk about how the wisdom contained in this book is still relevant for self protection today. Mark is a 2 time recipient of the LAPD Medal of Valor, a threat assessment and personal protection practitioner, and a high ranking martial artist in several styles. He combines incredible personal experience in frontline self-protection with classical training and a deep appreciation for written works on life, death and combat. Please enjoy this conversation, Ancient Wisdom for Modern Self-Protection with Mark Mireles.   *** Make sure you check out our full catalogue of episodes at www.violencepod.com If you'd like to support the show, you'll find lots of opportunities at www.violencepod.com/support And if you'd like to talk about myself or my team helping out your organisation, business or club, go to www.violencepod.com/training

Do you go to the square range to practice self-defense? Should you? Last week I went to the square range and worked on my self-defense shooting with my friend from Doctors for Responsible Gun Ownership, John. We shot his new Colt Python (if you want to hear about that you will have to become a Shooter's Club Member) and I worked with my self-defense gun. Read the rest at Modern Self Protection.

You know the old saying…”You might beat the rap, but you won’t beat the ride?” Ben Branam of the Modern Self Protection podcast and I interviewed Carlos, about an incident like that.

Today, I woke up early, packed my gear in my truck, found a parking lot where I had a pretty good wifi connection and I skyped up Ben Branam of Modern Self Protection.  The sound quality suffered a bit as you can hear a bit of engine and AC noise in the background of my audio, but no excuses!  Time to get some episodes up! Ben is someone I chat with pretty regularly about podcaster and professional defensive firearms instructor topics and this week we wanted to get together and record a session about the personal defense related topics that we might talk about on a typical call. We didn't have any kind of a master plan to where things were going to head, but the theme seemed to head towards education in personal safety and personal growth. I really enjoyed the conversation with Ben and hope that you find it enjoyable as well. At the end of the podcast Ben shares his thoughts with me about the Plan B v2.0.  I sent Ben a set to try out with his Shield and I asked for his honest feedback.  I couldn't be happier with his response and if you listen to the whole podcast you will know that Ben isn't pulling any punches. If you are interested in finding out more about the Plan B just head to http://www.ShieldPlanB.com. Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe on iTunes.
