Grant Magers, founder and CEO of American Rounds—an innovative company bringing ammunition vending machines (yes, really) to retailers nationwide.

Grant shares how he's building trust with the 2A community while creating new security and convenience standards. Send us a text Walk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and want to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

In this chaotic and hilariously sharp episode of OnlyLands, a full house of Badlands Media hosts dives into the bizarre spectacle of Rep. Nancy Mace's congressional "reveal" and the broader implications of performative politics. What starts as jokes about Nancy Mace's topless threat quickly morphs into a fiery debate over weaponized victimhood, gender-based stunts, and the cynical manipulation of public platforms for personal gain. The crew questions whether justice is being served, or if the entire thing is just another distraction from building the Golden Age. From silly poop games and marketing fire pits to philosophical rants on the Second Amendment, taxation, energy sovereignty, and narrative warfare, this episode barrels through every topic under the sun, including General Kwast's Space Force strategy, helium-3 mining, and why Congress might be beyond saving. GMoney gets fired up over Bitcoin and the system's failure to deliver justice, while others call for discernment, courage, and community-driven truth-seeking. It's absurd, profound, unfiltered, and full of laughs, and that's exactly what OnlyLands was made for.

This week, we're talking about some good news. Some very good news, actually. The murder rate, which has been on the decline for a couple of years now, is on pace to hit a record low. That's what the early data collected by Jeff Asher's AH Datalytics indicates. Asher joins the show to break down the numbers he's seeing so far. He said the murder rate surged during the pandemic, but it has already fallen back to those levels and kept dropping further. While the FBI's murder data for 2025 won't be out for nearly a year, Asher collects crime data from many of the same sources. He said his data shows a huge early decline in the murder rate that would equate to an all-time low if sustained. He cautioned that the decline is likely to slow as the year progresses, but it should still hit a record. Special Guest: Jeff Asher.

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I unpack the latest in the growing political fight between gun-rights groups and the House GOP over how much National Firearms Act reform can be included in the President's "big beautiful bill" through budget reconciliation.

Talk Back to MeThe acronym TTP refers to Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures. While these terms are most at home in military situations, we're seeing more than just soldiers implement them. In this episode we break down the definition of tactics, and take a look at the Siege of the 3rd Precinct in Minneapolis back in 2020 to identify the TTPs of anarchist groups present at the time. What about Citizens? What does the Second Amendment concern itself about Tactics?

This was the first speech I gave in front of my Grandpa, James A. Mather (26 Feb 1923 -- 14 May 2025). He was 97 years young at this speech going to the gym 3 x a week right up to the lockdowns. And this speech was the Friday before the lockdowns in 2020 (13 March 2020) for The Conejo Valley Republican Women Federated at Los Robles Greens 299 S Moorpark Rd, Thousand Oaks, CA 91361. Grandpa Mather gave the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer to start us off, and I talked about Republicans and Civil Rights, focusing on The Second Amendment. This was originally broadcast on FB LIVE 13 March 2020 for a non-profit, public audience, for educational purposes only. Used by permission. I want to thank the women of Conejo Valley Republican Women Federated for permission to use this material and for having me speak to them that day. I want especially to thank Stephanie Ferguson for hosting me and for her friendship and support all these years ! There were very special people there, including Linda Lopez Mather (Grandpa's wife since 1995), and also people I'd met for the first time including Jackie Tucker, Tamara Howard, Kerry Nelson, Jennifer McCarthy, and Angela Nardone. It's one of the best recent memories I have with Grandpa Mather, who passed into eternity today at the age of 102 years young. Grandpa Mather was on the Podcast 21 Nov 2024, so you can check that video/audio out at your leisure. That episode features a phone call he made to me on 7 May 2020. I captured it on FB LIVE at the time. The Republican Professor is a pro-Grandpa-Mather, pro-Constitutional-education, pro-Conejo-Valley-Republican-Women-Federated podcast. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.

Just when you thought the Second Amendment was safe with Republicans… think again. In this episode, we reveal how so-called “pro-gun” lawmakers in Congress are the ones quietly blocking game-changing bills like the Hearing Protection Act and short-barreled rifle deregulation. If you've been wondering why nothing's moving in D.C.—this is the eye-opener you need. Also in this episode:

Second Amendment journalist Lee Williams joins Cam to discuss the ATF's recent acknowledgement that the agency has purchased an undisclosed number of suppressors for agents' "health and safety"; an admission that has left many 2A supporters wondering why our own health and safety doesn't seem as important, given the federal restrictions on their purchase.

Alabama's New Gun Law: Triggering Tears from Gun Control Crusaders Alabama's latest gun law has drawn significant backlash from Second Amendment advocates, who argue it infringes on their rights. The law's implications for the gun community are increasingly contentious, igniting heated debates about personal freedoms versus regulation. Same Old Gun Control Nonsense Ways and Means fucks us again on the SHORT and HPA.,The speaker expresses frustration regarding the recent markup from the House Ways and Means Committee concerning the Hearing Protection Act and related legislation. Despite efforts to remove certain firearms from the National Firearms Act (NFA), key provisions, such as the removal of short-barreled rifles and shotguns, were not included, leaving the registry intact. While there are some positive changes, like reducing the tax for firearm silencers, the speaker is critical of the overall outcome and urges listeners to take action by contacting committee members to demand more substantial reforms. The speaker emphasizes the importance of public pressure and staying engaged in the legislative process, highlighting the potential for change if citizens remain active and vocal.

Then the two get into Mic's new book Breaking: How the Media Works, When it Doesn't, and Why it Matters.

This week, we're starting to see the effects of President Trump's tariffs on the ammo market. To discuss the real-world pricing data we have Nathaniel Boos of Black Basin Outdoors on the show. Black Basin is an online ammo dealer, but it also publishes the most comprehensive pricing data on the internet. From that data Boos said we can already seen some signs of what's happening. And the results are interesting. For the most popular rounds, such as 9mm or 5.56 NATO, prices haven't moved very much overall. But under that steady stream are some fascinating undercurrents. As imports have become more expensive under the 10 percent tariff, American brands have largely chosen to reduce prices in an effort to retake marketshare--something that's evened pricing out in most sectors. However, Boos said Black Basin has already seen some overseas suppliers simply stop shipping product into the US. He said part of the reason prices haven't shot up across the board yet is that the market has a glut of supply following the 2024 election. He warned prices could increase once supply dwindles and demand picks back up, likely in the Fall. Boos argued the tariffs could end up limiting consumer options and pushing up prices over time, even eliminating supply of some less popular rounds. But in the short term, they've helped American ammo makers recapture market share while imposing little monetary pain on consumers--an outcome tariff supporters are aiming at.

Send us a textThe communist-controlled Connecticut State legislature is attempting to pass yet another civilian disarmament law that they suppose will allow them to circumvent the PLCAA (Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act). Meanwhile, 19 of their fellow communists in Georgia were arrested in April for child sex trafficking, one of them being a former candidate for Georgia's 139th House District, who was lauded by the civilian disarmament cartels (Everytown, Commie Mommies, Giffords, etc.) as a "gun sense candidate", who also made online threats and calls for assassination against President Trump, while citing the 2nd Amendment as being the justification for his actions. The irony being that he was calling for the Secret Service to shoot Trump.But these are the people that want us to give up our guns to them? Support the showGiveSendGo | Unconstitutional 2A Prosecution of Tate Adamiak Askari Media GroupBuy Paul Eberle's book "Look at the Dirt"Paul Eberle (lookatthedirt.com)The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels: Forcelli, Peter J., MacGregor, Keelin, Murphy, Stephen: 9798888456491: Amazon.com: BooksVoice of the Blue (buzzsprout.com)

Congress Moves to Protect Veterans' Gun Rights from VA's Automatic Gun Bans Schiff's Gun Grab: Not Again! Schiffhead says now's a good time for an AWB Gun Control: Colorado's Epic Fail Colorado: Gov. Jared Polis & Democrats' Newest Gun Law is a Constitutional Disaster Montana Takes Aim: Shooting Down Hawaii's Latest Gun Control Nonsense Montana's Attorney General is spearheading a coalition challenging Hawaii's new ban on firearms in so-called 'sensitive' places. This move underscores a growing resistance among pro-Second Amendment advocates against perceived overreach in gun control laws, highlighting a commitment to protect rights amid increasing regulations. Gun enthusiasts are likely to view this development as a reaffirmation of their liberties, further fueling the fight against restrictions on lawful firearm ownership. Budget Cuts for the Bureau: Trump Takes Aim at ATF Funding Trump's FY 2026 budget proposal includes a $468 million funding cut for the ATF, which may impact the agency's operations and regulation of firearms. This reduction is likely to be welcomed by the gun community, as it reflects a trend toward less federal oversight and potential easing of gun control measures. Oops! Leftists' Lies About Guns Just Went Up in Smoke A recent development has led to a halt in the left's narrative labeling guns as the leading cause of childhood deaths, which could impact the ongoing gun control debate. This shift may cause discomfort among gun control advocates who rely on such claims to justify their position, while potentially reinforcing support for the Second Amendment among gun enthusiasts.

This week, we're taking a deep dive into the National Rifle Association's latest financial report. That's why we have non-profit expert and Ohio State University accounting professor Brian Mittendorf back on the show. The NRA just had its annual meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, which I was able to attend and pick up copies of the group's latest annual report. That report shows the membership dues, legal spending, and even conflicts of interest at what remains by far the nation's largest gun group. Professor Mittendorf said the numbers showed an organization that's still in decline, and still racked by legal costs. However, he also said the NRA's slide is slowing, and there are clear opportunities for them to stabilize or even rebound. He noted that legal spending, while still sky-high compared to their pre-scandal days, is falling. In fact, the group's new CEO said legal fees had dropped dramatically from even the time the latest report covers. Mittendorf said that alone could free up tens of millions of dollars, without raising new funds, to put toward the core services the group has cut over the years--something that could pull members back in.

President Trump's Department of Justice has just filed an Amicus brief with the US Supreme Court arguing strongly against Hawaii's "vampire rule" for concealed carry.  That "vampire rule" reverses the usual rule that a concealed carrier CAN carry a firearm onto private property unless told they CAN NOT do so, by imposing a legal requirement that a concealed carrier CAN NOT carry a firearm onto private property unless explicitly told that he CAN do so. The effect is to make concealed effectively unlawful everywhere. The DOJ also urged the SCOTUS to take on more Second Amendment cases generally, in defense of American's civil right to keep and bear arms for lawful purposes. Join me as I break it all down!Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Phoenix Eichner, a 20-year-old Florida State University student and son of a Leon County sheriff's deputy, opened fire near the Student Union on the FSU campus in Tallahassee, killing two people and injuring six others. The media's response to this is so predictable. They focus on gun control but ignore other amendments, while advocating for due process for illegal immigrants. Not all violent deaths, like stabbings, involve guns, yet the media emphasizes the Second Amendment. This shooting, where the shooter's mother is a deputy with necessary gun access, is unrelated to gun control. The media should clarify which amendments they prioritize and why. Also, Islamists follow a purist ideology that prioritizes the afterlife and seeks to eliminate barriers to pure Islam, including less devout Muslims and non-believers. The 9/11 attacks, led by Osama bin Laden, exemplified this ideology, as does the Muslim Brotherhood. Traditional deterrents fail against this mindset, which values the next life over the present, making Iran's potential nuclear weapons a serious concern. Allowing a country that chants "Death to America" to develop and potentially use nuclear weapons is not noble. Later, Mark announced that President Trump had appointed him to the Homeland Security Advisory Council, which is a great honor. Those appointed to this board want nothing to do with open borders.  Afterward, the Supreme Court will review Trump's plan to restrict birthright citizenship, which lacks a basis in the 14th Amendment. One possible solution the court could agree on is ending birthright citizenship from a set date, grandfathering prior cases. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
