Episode 371 - Kegan Gill Jan 27, 2025

Show notes

Kegan Gill was a US Navy Fighter Pilot (F-18 Super Hornet) and was forced to eject into the sound barrier as his plane was going down during a training exercise over the Atlantic Ocean. In the process of ejecting, Kegan sustained catastrophic injuries that literally ripped his limbs apart along with a severe traumatic brain injury.

His body landed in the ice-cold waters of the Atlantic with a protective wet suit that had been ripped to pieces. With his parachute still attached, and unable to move his arms, Kegan was continuously dunked into the freezing water for two hours before his rescue. Luckily, his hypothermic condition kept him from bleeding to death.

Kegan spent the following months focusing on his recovery, and despite his catastrophic injuries, he was eventually able to score a perfect PFT and was able to return to flight duty.

Kegan recently published the book Phoenix Revival about his experience, and long journey through recovery: https://ballastbooks.com/purchase/phoenix-revival/

CyberTrucks and Green Berets Jan 10, 2025

Show notes

The events that occurred in Las Vegas were not only tragic, but they should serve as a reminder for those who create content as to what can happen when your desire is to be "first."

Conspiracy theories are sometimes real, but I worry that sometimes people want them to be true more than they want to look at the data objectively.

This episode attempts to explain and provide a thought process that has served me well in life when it comes to separating the "wheat from the chaff" of information overload.

Episode 368 - Nic Mckinley Jan 06, 2025

Show notes

Nic McKinley is an entrepreneur, former military special operator, and ex-CIA operative who founded and led two multimillion-dollar tech companies. A pioneer in building technical solutions to protect society from predators, Nic is passionate about solving society's most pressing issues through cost-effective technical solutions.

Nic grew up in Montana but left to join US military special operations as a US Air Force Pararescueman. After more than a decade in Pararescue, Nic worked in private intelligence start-ups before being recruited into a specialized unit at the Central Intelligence Agency that provided unique capabilities and expertise in response to the critical operational needs of the Intelligence Community.

With 30 combat deployments under his belt in both Special Operations and the CIA, Nic experienced the power of technology during the Global War on Terror and set out to use his skills and training with that experience to combat modern slavery.

In 2014, Nic founded DeliverFund, the only donor-funded solution to human trafficking that delivers proprietary data and technology to law enforcement, allowing them to take down human traffickers effectively. Along with DeliverFund, Nic founded a venture capital-backed software company and has a technology leadership consulting practice.

Despite being dubbed "The Real Jack Ryan" by VICE Media, Nic's most important role is as a husband and father leading his family in a life of service and adventure in Montana. When he is not in his office, Nic can be found on a lake, on the ski slopes, camping, climbing vertical rock or ice in the mountains, with his nose in a book learning something new, or spending downtime with his extraordinary wife.

Nic holds multiple degrees, one of which is a Bachelor of Liberal Arts from Harvard University.

ISIS in America Jan 03, 2025

Have we arrived at a time when ISIS is now in our country?

Will the terrorist attack and murder in New Orleans be a one-off or the new normal?

What can people who are concerned about future attacks do?

It's time to take a hard look in the mirror, accept the reality of our situation, and then act accordingly.

Episode 367 - Robbie Kröger Dec 30, 2024

Show notes

Robbie Kroger is the founder of Blood Origins.

Born and raised in South Africa and now calling the United States home, Robbie has dedicated his life to shedding light on the real "why" behind hunting. Far from the stereotypes and controversies that often cloud the topic, Robbie's mission is to show that hunting isn't just about taking an animal's life—it's about giving back, building community, and connecting deeply with nature.

Drawing on his background as a scientist and conservationist, Robbie weaves personal stories and powerful insights that challenge the status quo. Hear firsthand how Blood Origins began—an initiative fueled by reverence for heritage and a desire to tell the untold stories of hunters, families, and communities worldwide. Robbie's perspective will reframe your thoughts on hunting and its place in modern conservation, from protecting wildlife habitats to understanding the roots that run through generations.

This conversation transcends politics and touches on the heart of what it means to be human: our responsibility to each other, to the land, and to the legacy we leave behind. This is hunting as you've never heard it before—raw, real, and undeniably powerful. Strap in and get ready to have your assumptions challenged in the best way possible.
