Aaron of Administrative Results joins us to talk about YouTube and firearms influencing, but as usual, Isaac can't stay on topic. The discussion quickly turns to law enforcement, sci-fi, the strengths of combat exoskeletons, longbows and yeomanry, the weak points of French knights, the best long-running book series about Napoleonic warfare, and other extremely unsurprising rabbit trails.

When we talk about building community, and disaster preparedness, there is a mobility problem. How can you get to and from your people? How can you move supplies or gather intel? Joining the conversation is Christian Guzman, who has been experimenting with a lot of different vehicle types for different transportation needs.

The last few weeks have been a furor of contention about tariffs, but there is a bigger conversation about the value of local manufacturing that needs to happen.

Six years ago, T.REX ARMS managed to get a state ammunition tax repealed. Ever since, we've had a lobbyist working on 2A legislation every year.
