We’re back with another After Dark episode here on the Iron Sights Podcast, and this one’s powerful. I sat down with Tamara DuMont—a competitive shooter, firearms instructor, and the kind of voice this community needs more of. Tamara’s story is real, raw, and deeply personal. Her introduction to firearms came after a horrific tragedy: the murder of her mother by her stepfather, using a firearm. And yet, Tamara’s journey didn’t end in fear—it turned into purpose.

Back in the studio today with another episode of the Iron Sights Podcast. This time, I’m joined by Steven and CeCe—Ryan’s out, but we’re diving into a topic that comes up constantly in our world: macro prescriptions. With warmer months here and people dialing in their nutrition and training, it made sense to revisit the macros conversation. How much protein should you really be eating? What about carbs and fats? What’s too much, what’s not enough, and how do you even come up with those number...
