This week, we're talking about a new effort to reduce gun suicides. That's why we have shooting champion Chris Cheng on the show. The winner of Top Shot season four is trying to raise money for mental health screenings and treatment. He is matching up to $5,000 of small-dollar donations in an effort to raise $100,000 for Walk The Talk America (WTTA). WTTA is a grassroots effort to try and reduce suicide from within the gun-owning community. We've interviewed one of their co-founders on the show in the past. Cheng said he's a big believer in their unique approach because it understands some of the novel challenges in reaching gun owners experiencing suicidal ideation without inadvertently discouraging them from seeking help. Cheng noted that seeking out mental health help can be intimidating for gun owners because mental health professionals have the power to take their guns away. He said WTTA tries to address this problem by educating those professionals about the concerns of gun owners. They have a training program and a list of professionals who've worked with the non-profit that gun owners can reach out to. But it's not just about reaching mental health professionals, Cheng said. The group also works to open up conversations about suicide and mental health inside the gun-owning community. It offers help for firearms trainers, store operators, and range owners. It also gives people direct access to free mental health screenings. Cheng said the community has come a long way in addressing the issue of suicide over the past decade, but a lot more is needed. After all, suicide has long been the largest percentage of gun deaths in America. So, Cheng said he's going to keep working to help, and this fundraiser is the next step. Special Guest: Chris Cheng.

About two-thirds of gun deaths each year are suicides. It's an incredible challenge facing the gun-owning community. It's also one they've begun organizing to address. One person leading that effort is Michael Sodini of Walk The Talk America. He joins the show this week to discuss how the industry and gun owners alike have partnered with mental health professionals to try and reduce the number of gun suicides each year. Sodini said explained the way the program came about and how it fills an important gap. When he first attempted to use the resources of his gun distribution company to fund a mental health intervention program for gun owners, he found there was nothing in place. So, he helped form Walk The Talk America to develop a program by gun owners and for gun owners. He said destigmatizing seeking mental health resources is an important way to help gun owners struggling with suicidal ideation. One key part of doing that is ensuring people that they can reach out for help without having to worry about losing their firearms. Often that's one key reason gun owners are hesitant. That's why Walk The Talk America works directly with mental health professionals to help them better understand how to reach out to gun owners without alienating them. They have also started a network of approved providers who have experience working with gun owners. They've begun connecting those in crisis with those trained and able to help. Sodini said the issue is one that the community needs to take seriously and do more to address. He lost a friend to gun suicide and knows exactly how devastating it can be. I, unfortunately, can say the same. The more gun owners can do to look out for each other, the fewer we will lose to suicide. That's the key takeaway, according to Sodini. Plus, Contributing Writer Jake Fogelman and I discuss how a new California gun law is dashing the dreams of a young female Olympic hopeful. And we talk a bit about my girlfriend's search for a concealed carry gun and Jake's own carry gun update. Special Guest: Michael Sodini.
Jake Wiskerchen of Walk The Talk America joins Marty Griffin to discuss the mental health epidemic in the United States and how help can be found for those struggling with mental illness.

While politicians in Washington D.C. are looking to find some sort of gun control "compromise" in the wake of the horrific murders in Uvalde, Texas, gun owners and Second Amendment advocates involved in the grassroots effort known as Walk The Talk America are taking on the challenge of improving access to and removing the stigma around mental health and gun ownership. WTTA founder Michael Sodini joins Cam to talk about the program and how it's helping to save lives.

Michael Sodini joins Toby to talk about his organization, Walk The Talk America (WTTA) which was founded aspiring to reduce firearm suicides and other negative incidents associated with firearm ownership.
I'm sure you've heard the saying, "Don't talk about politics or religion." It seems to be a saying dating at least as far back as our grandparents' day. But just how much, exactly, has such a sentiment COST our society? I think as a whole, our society has lost the ability to have a meaningful conversation regarding politics and religion. They were treated as a social "third rail" for so long, that now in 2021, very few are able to have a true DISCUSSION. Lately politics have been a HOTLY debated topic, but without the ability to DISCUSS, most people simply want to tell you why they are right and you are wrong, regardless of what you say or why you're saying it. Religion has become such a taboo that many are now scared to even pray in public, much less share their convictions or learn about a faith different from their own. We are joined by Lloyd Bailey of Armed Lutheran Radio, Jake Wiskerchen of Walk The Talk America, and Yehuda Remer, the Pew Pew Jew. Let's break the social rules and sit down for a discussion about politics and religion. Who knows? We may even find out we can be civil and remain friends afterward! Want to support the podcast?

Where is this emerging initiative in its growth curve now? 2) It is so exciting to see the two communities – mental health professionals and gun owners – engage one another in such proactive ways. What is the main role of mental health professionals in the organization?

We are doing a series called Ameri-CAN. Talking about the CAN-DO spirit that is part of our American DNA. So much about our lives has been turned upside down by this Corona Virus / Covid-19, and we have been hearing a lot about what we CAN’T do and where we CAN’T go, but our guests during this series are going to talk to us about their area of expertise and all of the ways we still CAN learn and grow, train, connect, and expand our freedoms in ways we maybe haven’t thought about before. Our guests today are Michael Sodini, Founder of Walk The Talk America and Jake Wiskerchen, the co-founder, co-owner, and chief clinical officer at Zephyr Wellness, a mental health outpatient practice in northern Nevada. During this time fear, loss and having our daily routines restricted one thing we don’t hear enough about is how all of that impacts us emotionally. 1) Jake, talk to us, from a mental health professional’s perspective, what are you seeing people struggle with and how are you offering them help? 2) Michael, when you started WTTA, no one could have imagined HOW important it would be to have your organization up and running. At WTTA you have some free and anonymous tools available – what are those and how do people accss them? 3) Jake, you are also helping to train the helpers. You and I met at an event in Reno, NV where you were part of bridging the communication and culture gap between Mental Health Professionals and clients who might be gun owners. And now there are literally millions more first-time gun owners, so the timing could not have been more important. How is that bridge-building going? 4) Mike, WTTA is a not-for-profit organization – for people who have a heart to help continue and further the work you are doing, how can they donate? 5) How do people find and follow you both and the work you do?
Here's the "Stand Alone" interview with Rob Pincus, Exec Vice Pres of 2AO.org (The Second Amendment Organization). We talk about gun rights turning this time of pandemic. We also discuss the issue of mental health and the help that Walk the Talk America is offering to gun owners today.

Check out XTech Tactical at https://www.xtechtactical.com/?ap_id=crumpyss%3F Michael Sodini is a former Abercrombie & Fitch model and the President and owner of Eagle Imports. Eagle Imports is the importer of brands such as Bersa, MAC, and Llama. They are one of the biggest gun companies in the world, but Mike is the "ungun gun guy." He grew up in the liberal haven of San Francisco before moving to New York for his modeling career. He met his model ex-wife and the mother of his children while traveling the world, but he needed a change which led Mike into guns. A chance meeting in a restaurant years later and coming across a proposition paper by Mental Health America inspired him to try to combat the stigma of mental health and help those who need help the most. He founded "Walk the Talk America" (wtta.org) to accomplish this mission. Being a sufferer of anxiety makes this topic very near and dear to my heart. I had to have him on the podcast. This topic isn't always an easy topic to deal with, but one that is necessary to confront.
