268: The SIG Controversy and its Consequences

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/03/12

Talk Back to Me Beyond the bottom line, the latest statements by SIG Sauer regarding the P320 failed to reduce talk around the pistol, instead inviting more criticism. While there may be another story taking place, vocal characters on social media received the statement to suggest that the noteworthy firearms manufacturer was accusing its critics of being "anti-gun" or anathema when it comes to the Gun Culture. Does this accusation stick? Is SIG resorting to an ad hominem to get out of ...

267: The 80/20 Rule for Training

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/02/17

Talk Back to Me I find it unabashedly funny when people argue passionately over what they should or shouldn't train, especially when we all know neither party is practicing what they preach. The drama over such low hanging fruit cannot be allowed to go to waste, so in this episode we are addressing one formula for ensuring that you're excellent at the fundamentals, and capable in rare, but potentially disastrous situations. The 80/20 rule applies to more than just training, but in this ...

2025/02/03

Beneath the surface, there's a battle between light and dark. Those on the surface feel the consequences, without knowing what is going on beneath. But there comes a time when men must leave the mundane and enter into the world of light and darkness, where good is good and evil is evil. Those who reject this render themselves prone to PTSD, where a contradiction commands their mind, in conflict with their conscience. This episode of the REDACTED Culture Cast delves into the dregs of pse...

265: SHOT SHOW 2025 Summary and Evaluation

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/01/28

SHOT SHOW: Where those not at the show want to be, and those at the show want to go home. Not really, but it's funny. Laugh with me. This year at SHOT SHOW 2025, we noticed a different tone than the years prior. Instead of retrenchment and celebrating surviving another year, the industry displayed a refreshing sense of optimism and a willingness to venture into new things. While new products made small steps towards innovation and new frontiers, the attitude of the people at the show told a d...

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/01/24

In his book, Leadership and Emotional Sabotage, Dr. Joe Rigney states that one of the first responsibilities of a leader is to determine what is and what is not the mission. In this world, a man is responsible for his family, whether he chooses to fulfill that role, or abdicate from it. The world is in crisis, sure, but how we describe said crisis will determine how we go about solving it, if we can. As much as we hear the call for strong men in the Church, or the country, or in Gun Culture, ...

2025/01/17

The U.S. Army Ranger Battalion demands a constant pursuit of excellence and it comes at a cost to the individual. Few will know the cross pressure of desiring to go back to the aggressive lifestyle of a Ranger and the reality that one cannot keep up the level of performance indefinitely. Mike Meegan walks through the differences between living on "the line" and Ranger School. His tenure training in Small Unit Ranger Tactics and now as a leader of Rudder's Rangers at Texas A&M, brings a va...

262: How to Reduce Violence, Ethically

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/01/14

The subject of Gun Control easily misses the mark on more than one occasion. Politically unpopular, economically damaging, and culturally disruptive, one should begin to wonder why it comes back into conversation time and time again. We might be quick to describe supporting gun control as merely virtue signaling, but if we really believed that, we would treat it like a dangerous idea that it is. Do we really want a conversation on gun control, or are we truly interested in preventing harm? If...

2025/01/11

It's not the elephant in the room, the Las Angeles fires dominates the news cycle. Time Selbrede joins the show to talk about the reality of wild land firefighting and debunk myths about the current situation. As we sort fact from fiction a pattern emerges: that some people just want to see the world burn, and others would rather be entertained at someone else's misfortune than solve the problem. Directed Energy Weapons, Dry Fire Hydrants, and Controlled Burns: get out of the noise and see wh...

260: Defense Against Conspiracy Theories

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/01/07

What makes something a conspiracy theory? We already know we cannot trust every power that be, every narrative, every explanation. The further down the rabbit hole you go, the worse it gets and the more madness it imparts. On the one hand, calling something a conspiracy theory dismisses the legitimacy of an individual's beliefs. On the other hand, we've likely witnessed the spiral into madness that they can cause in others. In this model, we reintroduce the concept of a Straw Lord Fallacy: a ...

259: Scaling EDC in 2025

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2025/01/03

Too often, public conversations about EDC resort to shaming in order to produce a reaction. Instead, we are going to look at scaleability as a continuum that we can control. When it comes to every day carry, we think about self defense, first aid, and disaster response. These are the backbone of the subject, but not alone the answer. In light of recent events, we take a look at a few items and ways of carrying them that meet the adage of not "doing them the first time in combat" and fit them ...

258: Definitional Cowardice

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/26

Narrow is the gate to the Kingdom of Heaven, and many are the paths to hell. We've heard the phrase "rules for thee, but not for me," and in this episode we cover how the weak turn themselves into killers. When we exclude ourselves from moral culpability by using twisted definitions, we do not make ourselves into saints by playing tricks on terminology. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.This episode has been sponsored by Obsidian Arms, a manufacturer of tools, parts and fir...

257: A Message To Gun Culture

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/23

Despite public successes, the Gun Culture faced challenges in 2024. Scandal swept across much of our community as dark accusations addressed household names. Instead of digging in to the depths of these potential falls from grace, we look at the bigger picture and how it affects our own lives. The problem with heroes, is that they are mere mortals. When faced with criticism, we have at least 2 options: we can try to survive the loss of public perception, or we can correct our immoral ways. At...

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/16

The United Healthcare CEO shooting has remained on the front page of both traditional and social media for weeks now, and with all the talk, something remains missing. While people argue back and forth over if the shooter knew what he was doing based on his firearm manipulation skills, the potential scale of the operation goes unnoticed. Do we really believe this what the actions of a single individual or is there more going on here?Dig in as we discuss the difference between access to inform...

255: Reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/10

Few novels of the 1900's are more controversial than Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. That hasn't stopped the sophists from trying to make a statement about it. Rather the opposite. This spoiler free episode of the REDACTED Culture Cast delves into some things you might want to know, or look for when reading Rand's Magnum Opus. Ever heard of Rearden, who is John Galt? Why do these names matter? This isn't a book review, but a primer, to get you started on a journey into Objectivism, the ideas and ...

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/04

What does leadership look like in a decentralized future? Whether we're talking about different generations of warfare or how it appears to be shifting before our very eyes, the target is no longer just a government or its military, but the very people. In this episode, we trace through a series of books, arguments, and ideas to get a picture of what leadership looks like and what things it must hold in tension with one another to succeed.

253: Military, MilSim, and Filmmaking with Cory Haynes

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/12/02

The thing is, we like to see what we're good at represented in film. The problem with Hollywood, is that just that is so rare. Cory Haynes, aka Tacticooldork, has taken military experience, the high end of airsoft in Milsim, and filmmaking to just that level. Whether it was work on SCP: Overlord, Ten of Swords, or STALKER: Shadow of the Zone, he has brought the tactics, techniques, and procedures we look for in fantasy and depicted reality to the screen. In this episode we talk about the chal...

252: Honor Culture and Dignity Society

REDACTED Culture Cast ·

2024/11/22

We desire Honor, but exist in a system of dignity. These two concepts overlap, yet the consequences of neglect turn dire. Men give their lives to one and are cast off to another, with no anchor to hold on to. Honor can be earned. Dignity can only be lost.

What does Ontology have to do with training? While we might fall into the trap of thinking that Military Training is similar to what is available to civilians, only on a greater level. If that were the case, wouldn't we seen more capabilities opening up for the discerning citizen? We've come a long way, but where's the limit?Ontology is the philosophical study of being, which deals with categories. Through this lens, we can look at the types of courses and schools military and law enforcement...

What good is it if you win the war, but loose the very things worth fighting for? Nathan Spearing has lived a life of adventure and military achievement, only to put the uniform away to lead his family. The transition from the intensity of Special Operations to the urgency of financially supporting a wife and five kids sets an example that we can all learn from.

2024/11/05

Detachment from reality is most often described as a symptom of suffering. But what if we looked at it as the desired effect of some malicious action? What if, instead of the individual as a victim of their circumstances, they could be better described as a casualty of some form of warfare?Examples of our detachment are illustrated in our fantasies. From video games to holidays where we speak of spirits and the dead, only to go about our daily lives evaluating individuals, information, and ou...
