Shawn was getting an inside scoop in Tony's EDC when he shares this INTENSE combat story.
This has to be one of the most intense close-quarters, hand-to-hand gunfights in a war zone. After being held at gunpoint, Tony Cowden meets the enemy with resistance using his own firearm, and they begin to engage in a ground gunfight. When his pistol went out of battery, he fixed the malfunction on the enemy's back and finished them off.

One of the most intense stories you’ve heard in an EDC?
Yes No
👇🏼 👇🏼
Bear Spray is a Solid Win.
Next time interview the Master Chief
No, but I'm not from a developed country
Yes racking the slide on a dudes back then dispatching him is next level shit…like you put in the title of Episode John Wick…not too far fetched from that hotel room encounter😳
hell yes, man made some amazing points I woulda never thought of otherwise
To his tourniquet comment, Tony's 100% right. I'm a Sheriff's Deputy and had an incident involving a guy that was in a rollover wreck that severed his arm at the elbow because he had it resting out the window. A trucker got a belt on the arm before I got on scene. I arrived on scene 3 minutes after the 911 call, grabbed my bag, ripped my tourniquet out and put it on higher than the belt and applied pressure on the nub with my hand and some celox gauze. That trucker saved the driver's life with that belt, even though it wasn't stopping the bleeding completely. I was kneeling in 2 pints of his blood while treating him. The trucker gave him enough time to get me there and then I gave him enough time for EMS to get there and do their thing. An improvised tourniquet does a lot more than people make it out to.

Fact
His point about networking so even a city boy with no real skills can at least have a few country boy buddies is spot on. His neighbor being a farmer/rancher and him being the security makes perfect sense. We don't have to learn everything! Just bring a skill and make friends!
I remember during my 3rd deployment with the 82nd 1st/504th to OIF I noticed that when we had an SF ODA, or part of a JSOC task force or even an element of SAD shooters come through one of our combat outposts that you immediately recognized these were dangerous and determined men. It sounds cliche but I can honestly say some of the most humble, reserved guys I met during my 8 years in were dudes like this that I hold in the highest esteem. They don’t need to tell you how tough they are, if you have a pulse and basic threat assessment skills you are already well aware.
👍
ditto. When you're confident, highly trained, motivated, the calmest and most unassuming person in the room, is the most dangerous.
GREAT analysis
I was in the military in the 90s in Serbia if I went out I wasn’t even allowed to defend myself if someone attacked me in a bar I had negotiate my way out in 97 I came to Australia and had trouble with the mafia for no reason at all I negotiated my way out of the situation but if I had to get violent it wouldn’t of ended well for the mobsters I can tell you that now
This happened in OIF 1 when I was attached to 101st I think May 2003 …First time I came across any bad ass operators was when I was in a courthouse in downtown Mosul that had been blown up by people that didn’t want elections and we were there overnight and four delta guys rolled up and asked if they could relax for a little bit seeing them they all look like they were 6’4 brick shit houses wrapped in the local garb bearded out underneath it They were carrying the best and best ass weapons that we certainly didn’t have. Lol. They talk to us for about a half an hour or so gave them some food and then at some point in time they kinda just disappeared and I was in awe of there, cool calm and collected demeanor being where we were and I had asked a few questions about you know how do I get to be where you’re at type thing and one of them was like just be the best don’t be too arrogant don’t be too quiet kno your shit and study and learn a language. And that’s just the beginning. I wish I got a picture with the guys just to have but I didn’t want to be disrespectful. how is wondered if and where they went after
There is trained, there is experienced, and then there is this man. Between his presence, voice, and skill to tell a story, I could listen to an entire series of his experiences.
One of my favorite guests to date. I never thought someone would rival DJ.
Same
Ditto - one of my favorites so far
Careful- no one really likes a kiss-ass.
True but I think DJ’s story is downright unbeatable. Man is not human by any means
I don't quite think he's on DJ's level but he is definetely a contender.
"if Bear Spray is good for Brown Bears, it has to be good for shit heads"- Best quote I've heard in a good bit
Felony to use Bear Spray on a human in my state.
Acting like that stuff won’t make those kids blind😂
It is😂
But you have to remember. Some people are a little resistant and others have no reaction.
I have been hit with it in training and went 10 minutes. Stung a little. Not much happened. I smiled. He hit me again and my eyes eventually swelled shut.
If you are going to use it. Use it all and run. Dont stand still.
Bear spray is good so is hornet spray!
@@hubriswonkuse hornet spray too. It's not illegal.
Love the show!!! Uncle was in the navy, was in Falluja and in Afghanistan he unfortunately took his own life about 5 years ago, so your podcast and what you’re doing really helps bring a lot of peace and realization of what he went through and his trauma. He was a Navy cores-man . They called him Doc. His government name was Ernest William Henderson if you or anyone watching this ever came across him m during your service
Prayers onto your Uncle and Family.
oh man, nothing but the best of memories of him🙏
God bless your uncle, from Scotland👍
Sorry for your loss. Remember the good times. Sorry the trama of war killed him. God bless him and you.
o man I'm so sorry to hear that , another good man falls threw the cracks!!
I am a retired Deputy Sheriff with 20 years of SWAT, 15 years EOD, Worked u/c etc. I picked up a court security gig after I retired. The prior security director had purchased bear spray for the court staff and probation officers. When I started checking the shelf life and also wanting to get the latest and greatest, I did a little research and learned that the term "bear spray" doesn't mean it's proportionately more potent. Infact, the oleoresin capsicum by volume is less than half the potency of what is offered for personal defense, in some cases. Shawn, let Tony know about this. It pays to read the label, sometimes, haha.
I made a few calls and was told that the bears olfactory has way more receptors so it doesn't take as much of the pepper to accomplish the needed results. I did, however, like the quart size containers!
This is true. In addition, bear spray is regulated by one of the wildlife agencies (can’t remember which one), which is what requires the lower concentration. Pepper spray doesn’t have that same limitation.
Pepper spray fills the gap between harsh words and hollow points.
I prefer the foam over mist or gel varieties.
That's a great way of thinking about that situation and very true at that
😂😂😂
Spot on
Not sure why I laughed but I laughed out loud and am getting my canister today😂
Long range eye poke. Between a harsh word and a gun
Facts
I’m glad he doesn’t wait a whole week to drop part 2 🎉
Lol dammit this is going to be a long week
Brother, be Thankful That You live where you do!!! I say this because here in NJ, unless you are going to or coming from the range; you’re not driving with a SINGLE STINKIN LONG GUN!!!!
@@ballgms308 lmao inner thoughts hitting
Gotta get outta Jersey bro.
@@ballgms308 @joeythechin
Shawn, this dude is just on another level. I was in the Army 11 years and met a alot of stellar guys that knew their shit. This guys stories are amazing.
@johngallagher3732are you trying to say he is lying?
@johngallagher3732 Far from made up he is 100% legit. One of the most legit dudes you will come off especially in SOF community. No one says anything negative about him.
I heard Tony tell the hotel story three years ago while shooting with him. It has not changed one bit. Legend.
To have the situational awareness in a moment like that to rack a pistol on someone's back after the malfunction while you're fighting for your life with bullets coming at you while you're holding a bad guy with one arm and then NIGHT NIGHT!! TWO TIMES!!! .. HOLY SHIT!! That's badass 😮😮😮
Or maybe.................... haha
@@kennethbranson4711I take most of these guys at their word. Im no fan of Bustamante but most of these guys would be called out by fellow servicemen who worked with them.
@@kennethbranson4711this is called an ad hominem fallacy. Just because he may have some questionable guests on the show doesn’t mean every guest he has is making up stories for RUclips. That’s just cynicism. When it comes to Special Forces guys, like the dude above me said, they’d be called out by some people in that community or people they’ve worked with if they were just making up stories. Especially if they hadn’t served at all, it would be obvious to people who have served. You shouldn’t assume that just because something is a little out there, it’s made up. Hell, at one time the people who said the Earth was round and revolved around the sun were seen as “out there”, and unless you’re a Flat Earther hopefully we can agree that they were right.
@@kennethbranson4711lol cope😂😂
Epic on a whole other level!!🤟🇱🇷
Monday is now my favorite day of the week because I get to listen to the new episode. But 3 hours later the rest of the week is shit because I’m just starving for more Shawn Ryan. It’s all I listen to while working. Now I’ve watched every episode so I’m going back through and listening
What do you do for work that you can listen to podcasts all day?
@@tylermassaro4266unemployment specialist
"You don't need it until you need it." Very true, always train and be alert
Dude even looks like Rambo.
He looks like the guy that played abomination
Nah Rambo wishes that he looked like Tony cowden.
Forreal , legend
@@WTF_its_me_Kevinyeah just a buffer version but definitely
No, he looks like Col. Trautman.
Dude is so badass the part one of this podcast was very informative motivating and inspiring, thank you Shawn for giving this man a big platform.
I appreciate him bringing up bear spray. I dont think enough people really even try to go non lethal anymore. Straight to the strap…
Yeah I'll stick with the gun. Never needed it and hopefully never will but if I do it's there.
Don't assault me or break into my home and you won't get shot. Bears get the non lethal because they are animals and don't know any better.
Bears get Bear spray because most hand guns wont even slow down a brown bear!
OC spray is much better than bears. No reason for bear spray.
Truth told,
Its actually a solid idea to at least consider having a less lethal
“Middle ground” option in addition to your standard lethal EDC, even if it’s something as minuscule as a little “banacca” OC spray.
There are many, many situations where going lethal isn’t desirable.
@@Ringman68I’m interested, please explain.
The best interview I have watched, first time I heard a guy say he befriended all of his farming neighbors. most tacticool guys just rely on their own training, this guy knows he can't know everything. I like what he said about staying safe living in the country.
I grew up like Tony did.
Not only did my Dad who owned a farm but was a full-time Bible Thumper have my 2 younger brothers and me run the farm by just telling me to figure things out, but also my grandfather who was a (full-time cop - part-time whisky runner, and WW 2 combat vet teach me things that most kids probably didn't need or should know LOL but I also had an ex Vietnam vet who was a LARP live with us until the year before I joined the military and he taught me beaucoup tricks and hacks that even to this day I couldn't forget if I tried.
Those 3 men's influence on me made it considerably easier for me to become a member of the 75th Ranger Battalion back in the '80s
I just bought an old Southern-style
Farmhouse in rural Louisiana after spending 35 years hunting fugitives across the nation and I have totally renovated it by myself with the help of 3 Hispanic men and had to buy all kinds of hi-tech tools and equipment that I didn't know how to use, but I now have a masters degree in home renovations from the university of RUclips.
That’s very cool of you to share. Thank you & keep on rocking 🫡
This guy is wild. Never heard someone tell stories like this so calmly
He's alive mate this is years later I going to assume he didn't feel that way when it happened
when you've had a gun on ya id say he can be calm
Easy to be calm when you are making up the story
@@drewsut6101 I dunno man. Why do you think they’re made up? He has the resume to backup his experiences, I don’t think they’re made up.
@@LP3meThe stories are either entirely made up or extremely exaggerated. He has been caught cheating and lying in gun competitions, running competitions, and lifting competitions and has a wrap sheet a mile long. You notice how he smiles when he talks about death and killing? The smiling and laughter is his tell for lying.
I’ve watched a lot of guy’s do the same type interview, but this is my favorite one of all. This guy is bad ass but he’s also humble and and down to earth. Thank you for your service from a fellow serviceman. SW2Guy 🇺🇸
Funny story: After there was a giant power outtage where we lived in California, I made up an emergency kit with food, water, radio, extra ammo, batteries, and One day I was telling with my buddy who lived next door and said, "hey Brad, you got an emergency kit of some sort?" He said, "I don't need an emergency kit, I've got guns. If I need an emergency kit, I'll take someone else's."
I never tell anyone about my cache or cash. When things go south, your neighbors are going to come to your house.
Shawn, by far, the best podcast/interview program on RUclips.....keep up the great work, and keep serving/following after Jesus.
THE BEST PODCAST ON THE PLANET THANK YOU SHAWN!🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏
I’m a retired Federal Air Marshal and former SWAT team member and I too EDC a Glock 43X and an old school SAP. Great interview 😉👍
An awesome interview; probably my most favorite Shawn Ryan episode yet. I recently purchased that new Sig P365X Macro. Never had a carry pistol before and this thing is the real deal. Keep up the good work. And keep up your interview style of letting the people you're talking to do the talking.
Those go off on their own
@@wread1982It was the P320, and it never went off on its own. It had to be dropped from a certain height and certain angle.
The issue was fixed On August 2017. People shooting themselves with the gun these days did something.
I carried one for years. Not a single issue.
You Continue to bring High quality info and even Better personalities. Thanks as usual....
Yeah man! I saved an older gentleman that I came up on bleeding out from a head-on collision. I used my leather belt, and apologized for losing my wife’s gift later. He was I big dude, like 6’3” and the EMTs that showed up weren’t able to lift him so I had to hop in. It was a very involved pizza run.
He was 6’3”, not me. I’m a stubby 5’9” guy 😂
So great how honest he is and nothing even near braggadocios whatsoever. He not only admits that he has weaknesses (as a human being , like all of us) but he plans for real eventualities. Awesome.
LOL. You think Cowden is honest? That's cute.
@@lovetopew9054finally somebody gets it and knows the truth nature of Tony Cowden
Please, do tell. Smh @@lovetopew9054
“I was offended…. Dude if you’re gonna shoot me in the face, please use a nicer firearm.”
Lmao he even says please lol
years ago I remember my coworker looking all shook up at work retelling the story of her two sons almost about to kill each other fighting. I told her there is nothing wrong warning them to stop and busting out spray on them to cool off if they ignore you. No way a woman the adult lone in the house is going to stop two teenage boys bigger than her. Great video Shawyn!
This wasn't about you, but you found a way
Most people consider raised voices as a fight and men need to work shit out sometimes, people need to stay out of other people's juice and yes there's a lot wrong with someone bear spraying their teenage sons, non lethal doesn't mean non damaging furthermore just cause she's the mom doesn't give her carte blanche to hurt her son's, if someone stepped in and sprayed me with bear mace while I'm in a consensual fight...there would be serious justified consequences
True but there are literally siblings that will kill each other if you don't make it stop.... My 1st cousins were like that and the older one tried to throw him out a second story window more then once lol@@Michael-el8nu
Shawn
Thank you very much
I’ve been watching these episodes when I can ever since I first found them on my big screen TV and every part of these interviews with Tony Cowden are just perfect in every way sound, editing, quality is just perfect.
His tails are great and pure awesomeness.
Thanks again for having him on, his wisdom is invaluable and I just like him I don’t have a bug out bag for the same reason, why leave behind a lot of your best defenses to go out somewhere else where the natives don’t want you.
All though I do carry an away bag, ammo, tools, food, water, med supplies, guns and so on.
But I need to get some bear spray because that is excellent advice.
I love the addition of bear spray for the EDC. Will be implementing that asap.
I just finished watching both podcasts and I’m blown away with this man’s career and life overall. So much respect for him. And…he lives very close to me which is cool. I would love to meet him one day!
The difference in distance between pepper spray and bear spray was a game changer for me. Nice to hear someone of Tony's caliber EDC's it as well.
Here in NYS its basically illegal to defend yourself so the only real defense is to leave no witness.
I moved away from NYS to FL for this exact reason. Fuck NY and it’s shit laws.
Same as over here in Scotland, our weapon laws are utterly rediculous& designed to help the perpetrators 🤷♂️
Its funny how you guys and us over here in chicago are like on an unspoken competitive speed run to become the first irl night city
Btw youre losing
A bad person once did something bad to me , once.
Here in California it used to be a great state, now kill an intruder get arrested, go figure, I'm not the bad guy he was , dumbacrats did this to our state, they got half the state fooled is why they keep winning, almost everyone I talk to votes red , and they still win ( really )
I swear this is John Clark from a Tom Clancy novel. Badass
I’ll be honest I was happy to hear he chooses the gun I choose to carry for literally the same reasons! 43x is a great EDC!
love this podcast man! one of the best out there! appreciate your service to this country and now with this awesome podcast. cant say enough about it
As a female my grandma had me a BB gun at 5 and was making bets with her male buddies about my shooting skills. She told me don’t lose my money. I never did. Then she moved me up to her 38. I own a lot now. I was raised 30 minutes from any town. We didn’t just run to town. We kept things we needed. My stepdad is a veterinarian who I hope can medically care for us and I have one daughter now that’s a nurse. I wish I still had my grandma to teach me how to garden and can. My great granddaddy hunted and trapped selling pelts at the local store. I remember him cleaning a huge turtle he caught and making soup. I didn’t eat it but would if I was starving. I can skin animals. I can fish. I just need to work on my gardening skills.
Happy to see I’m not the only one who said, “Sheet, 365 doesn’t know it’s not a full sized gun!”
This guy went through my EDC list- Bear Spray is my favorite “Surprise”
Excellent show, Shawn.
My everyday carry is a 43x as well. I kind of went overkill with the 5 round extension from shield arms.
Hellcat pro here
"I racked it down his back" is one of the coolest fucking sentences ever said on this show
One of the better interviews.. absolutely agree 100% with EVERYTHING!! Awesome interview @ShawnRyan!!
I’m glad he didn’t become a Congressman cause he has a major important life path to continue in a special way and this interview is an important part of it! Thank you for yet another great show!!!!!
I do a lot of irrigation and landscaping work, those outdoor edge knives are bad ass and super reliable! You can get one usually at any landscaping supply joint
"Figure it out...". Yep, same thing Pappy taught me. "You'll figure it out".
He was in my same unit, and we drilled at Dawson. He and I never met, but we know a WHOLE bunch of the same people, same crowds. Great interview. HIS AOB Cdr in C Co 2/19th SFGA is still a good friend, and BC was "The Judge" Broadwater-RIP/
23:10 man that room is setup sweet and subtle just right. Very thought out. That ambient light on floor on middle is awesome. Love all the Earth tones.
Its cool to hear from real men with real life or death combat experience say things like "you will probably get beat up by 4-5, 14-17 year olds" because everyone always thinks they can take all these people on at once and they have never been jumped. Even with the warfare experience, people thinks its call of duty. No that man took out 26 armed enemies by himself which is probably the most impressive shit ive ever heard.
When I was in the best shape of my life, at 19-21 years old, I went to the boxing gym.
14-18 yr olds were beating the brakes off my ass.
This guys is a legend but watch the filmed medal of honor. That solider took on a whole enemy force fighting up a steep mountain in 4ft deep snow. Just to retrieve his fallen comrades bodies
@@letsdothis9063that’s mean you are very delusional and wasn’t in shape like you think .
Dude ive been using bear spray and giving it to the women in my family for a couple years now. People always laughed but ive always thought it was a good idea. This dude made me feel better about it hahaha ive been waiting for someone else to talk about it.
Much respect brother I’m glad you’re alive.
There’s nothing like your first solo flight!!!😳😃
Some crazy 85 year old man pulled his revolver on me at a flea market recently and the 1 day I'm not carrying i could legally defended myself.. luckily, a bystander was carrying and they did draw and protect me.. but I learned a valuable lesson that day, always carry... ALWAYS.
Another amazing episode! Been here since the beginning. Shawn your killing it brother!
When he looks trough the optics you see in his eyes the soul left him for the time he is looking through...amazing !
Man, I can relate to this guy. Grew up just like this.
tonydowd8566; I am a retired code certified home inspector, longtime renovator, been shooting since I was little, organic gardener, seed saver, hillbilly, professional bass player, songwriter, luthier, a person who has worn many hats…❤
My father was the same way. A lot of figure it out and I’ll show you only once 😂
You and me both pal lol
I'm an electrician, by trade, and our electrical grid is not much better than it was in 1970.
We need to completely "redistribute" our government officials! They need to be reminded that the people are in control, but first, most people need to wake up and realize we're supposed to be in charge, not them!
Never Forget Why S Ryan has the show. He has been there , done that, the hotel room is an intence story
This guy is as hard as they come. I’d love to get some more content from him in regards to training and preperation.
Dude, that’s the greatest story ever! Only on The Shawn Ryan show folks!
shawn had a ton of very questionable characters on lately, especially those ufo guys. he never questions anything. im not sure if hes really that gullible or he just only cares about the clicks.
he knows that those that are full of shit like to talk about it, so if he would scare them away he would have a shortage of guests 😂
Thank you for your Service!!
Can't wait to see part 2!
So crazy, I followed Tony when I first started shooting 5 yrs ago, his IG was recommended to me via the algorithm. I Didn’t know anything about the man. He was just real, Down to earth, and had the most practical “it is what it is, work the basics” advice. He helped me sift through and dispel allot of this “Gun-fu” nonsense we all see on the cringe videos, y’all know what I’m talking about 😂. He taught me so much. To learn all this makes me admire him.
Shawn.. your the professor here. Your interviewees..are the students telling us What they've learned.. YOUR NEXT PODCAST. SHOULD BE FOR Civilians to Incorporate these lessons, carries,, Im 64, broken up.. ESU Worker.. but this information is invaluable. A simple Podcast series on HOW To
Would be worth my investment..
Thanks.. BTW.. NOT to plug, Glock. But my G dealer said yrs ago, this G43x Fits your hand properly.. not the Sig, not the Beretta but THIS G43X.. your ladt 2-3 interviewees carry it i think its excellent sub compact 10+1 used to carry a Browning hipower my favorite but 10 is max capacity in my state and the weight factors
Where my Dad was from, Rinard, Illinois. Maybe 500 people and all corn fields owned by my grandpa. Love this guy.
Just FYI, LEO pepper spray is much more concentrated than bear spray is, also...it doesn't work on everyone
What do you mean it doesn’t work on everyone? Are there some people who are immune to the chemicals? Or do you just mean that some people can power through the pain/irritation and keep on attacking/fighting?
@@tylermassaro4266 both….there are a lot of people that it doesn’t phase at all and some power through. But it’s not an end all be all defensive tool. Just like tasers, they don’t work on everyone either. If you don’t use them perfectly they wont work and if you don’t spray them in the right spot it doesn’t work.
@shawnryanshow I love your show, man! Please don’t stop!
A good book series is "Foxfire ". HS students went out & talked to the old folks asking how they did things before electricity. There’s I think 13 books in the series.
The book he mentioned back to the basics is a wonderful book that covers so much information my grandfather gave me a copy when I was a teenager I'm 53 now and it's a collection of great knowledge
Dude looks like he could kill a bear with his bare hands hahaha
Man, I wish there were four more episodes with Tony.
I lived through THE blackout back in the day that took down the entire eastern side of North America. Two days in and people were really starting to panic. It was a good lesson on what's going to happen and how to prepare for it.
That’s such a wild ass story, feels like something straight out of a movie
Compare the way he handled that pistol with the way Jim Cavizel handled his…. I don’t notice Shawn having to duck with this guy😂
Hell if some of us have to hunt for our own food ? We will we screwed because I don't even know where " Little Debbie" lives?😂🍻
If Johnny Lawrence had joined the Army…
Lol mark Coleman 😂
We dont how broken bones and body scars he must have.... but this guy is a complete man. Has a great smile, demeanor and great sense of humor.
This is spot on. There is a few of us working in Oakland Ca and the police advised us to carry bear spray because of CA law and contractor agreements not allowing us to carry firearms.
Uncanny resemblance to James Bond. Very good segment, informative and knowledgeable. Great ideas. Good guy to know. Like the Sig, just expensive. First I remember for a small pistol double stack, Grenadal, that became the Kel-Tec, the P-11 was out several years before Sig, Glock, Ruger & Taurus started catching up. Bear spray is some pretty nasty stuff, and it'll flat-out blister you. Heard a story about a guy that got dropped off in Alaska to go fishing and he had bear spray with him and his mosquito repellent. I don't know if he was a city slicker but he mistook one for the other and bear sprayed himself. The guide flew back with the airplane to pick him up and heard the guy screaming down in the marsh area. He thought for sure that a bear might have got ahold of him but realized what had happened when he got to him and his head was all swelled up really bad and blistered all over. He had to take him to the hospital, because he actually sprayed himself right in the face. I remember seeing a recent meme that said we need to take the warning stickers off and let people just weed themselves out... LOL 🤣
Yeah, immediate Daniel Craig vibes. 😂
I guess the main lesson here is never think it can’t happen to you… learn everything you can about everything you can..
I am in NC. Might be time to change communities. I need Tony as a neighbor. All joking aside, this guy's knowledge and wisdom on almost everything, except gardening and flying helos, is just mind-blowing. Next podcast he will be talking about spreading garden seeds in a helo he rented.
“Have you talked to the people, that live in the mountains?” Lmao😂 I live in West Virginia 🤣🤣🤣
One day a week isnt enough for the shawn ryan show. I need so many more of these videos.
He looks like if he fell down and hit his face on a rock he'd just make pebbles
You said it out loud. We need a leader. They have divided us for that EXACT reason....so we can't mobilize.
Tony’s assessment of cities imploding is very reminiscent of my observations of post-Katrina New Orleans. On the back of that deployment, I started looking into prepping. End goal is moving out to the country if the world doesn’t go to Hell first. Outside the suburbs is as far as I’ve gotten, so we’ve done what we can to be ready for whatever comes.
Absolutely agree. I was a freshman in college and had just moved to New Orleans four weeks prior to Katrina hitting. It forever changed the way I see the world. I was blessed that I had family friends in the area that took me in but I will never underestimate how quickly society devolves.
What a great podcast 👍👍
Love this guy. No BS just real talk
A country boy will survive. Hank Williams Jr.. I am a country boy. Grew up in the TX panhandle where you can see for miles and miles. We now live in NE Texas. I have a shop FULL of tools and know how to use them. I am too old to bug out, so I am bugging in.
This guy, Like Shawn, is awesome. I really hope he does get elected to Congress at some point. We need way more people like him as our leaders.
That's what we said about crenshaw. The navy sealed that turned rhino And the List goes on
Guy is a verifiable liar.
This cat's real-deal. Been around cats like him for a long time.😎
The fake your a winner thing I was watching collion noir and someone did the same spam shit it's pathetic
“If you’re gonna shoot me in the face please use a nicer firearm” 😂💀
Something to think about...that's where I'm at in life with a pic of bear spray is a great shirt
Dude could be Cam hanes brother. Also Carolina Ppg. Well train you to fly paramotors. It's like a dirtbike in the sky.
Fun fact: Bear spray is chemically weaker than mace or pepper spray, This is because bear spray cant be so powerful that it impleads or damages the sense of smell for the bear (considering that's how it finds its food). So if your goal is to have a more powerful "self defense spray" id go with mace or pepper spray for people. Often bear spray does have more range and does work pretty good too.
Spray just escalates things in MY experience when used by civs, 27 years LEO.
@@michaellavaughnrobinsonit saved my life once. Non lethal options are necessity for civs
@@michaellavaughnrobinsoni think there’s a big difference between trying to subdue someone so you can make an arrest and trying to subdue someone for long enough that you can run away/get out of the situation. I’m sure it gets people pissed off and escalates but if it can buy you 20-30 seconds of extra time, that’s all you need to get some distance between you and the mugger/attacker. Maybe not but at least it’s worth a try instead of having to pull out a knife/gun and escalate to lethal force.
I was looking to see if someone had commented this. I was going to comment the same thing myself. Hopefully others will see this and stick with the pepper spray
100% its a super common misconception, But it makes sense why people believe it@@austinrodriguez1298
