119: The Guerilla Medic - Guerrilla Medicine, ER Nightmares & The Bystander Effect
Returning to our regular show, this week Guerilla Medic's J joins Nathan in person at the Crafts and Lore Leather Shop for a chat on all things medical and EMS. J talks training as a Navy Corpsman and the solid medical training he got from that, the surprisingly slow adoption of Tourniquets in the civilian world, keeping pressure on a bleeding scrotum, cutting Prince Albert piercings off of inmates and other ER nightmares and the importance of mental health amongst emergency service workers.
The lads also get into the surprisingly thin line between helping patients and violence in the ER, training SUT at the Small Unit Skills Challenge event (SUSC), how pandemic mandates threatened the ability to treat all patients equally and how some healthcare workers gathered to discuss underground alternatives. All that and much more!

118: WARLORD: Investigating the Appalachian Ranger Association - Part 2 of 2
Art and War continues with Part 2 of our two part mini-series ‘WARLORD’, as B.R investigates the recent controversy and allegations made concerning Mark, founder of the civilian training group, 'The Appalachian Ranger Association'. Part Two features three former ARA Rangers from a range of leadership positions within the organization. First up, a former squad leader discusses disciplinary rebuttals to Field Training Exercise (FTX) After Action Reports (AARs), a former XO working directly with Mark shares his thoughts on what happened to ARA donations, and the CO of RSTG Gold discusses Mark’s troubling ‘wannabe Warlord’ tendencies as the organization got bigger. All of that, and much more.
Mark had previously been a guest on the show on Episode 83. Due to mounting reports, allegations and evidence stacking up against the leadership of the group, we wanted to hear the other side of the story from former members of the ARA, without filter.

117: WARLORD: Investigating the Appalachian Ranger Association - Part 1 of 2
Art and War takes a slightly different tone today, as B.R investigates the recent controversy and allegations made concerning Mark, founder of the civilian training group, 'The Appalachian Ranger Association'. Mark had previously been a guest on the show on Episode 83. Due to mounting reports, allegations and evidence stacking up against the leadership of the group, we wanted to hear the other side of the story from former members of the ARA, without filter. Part One features two former ARA Rangers discussing Mark's culture of silencing dissent within the organization, hypocrisy, lack of leadership, poor risk assessment and planning and much more lead to it's seeming dissolution.
Stay tuned for the follow up, Part 2, next Sunday the 22nd of October, 2023.

111: Carey Wedler - Anarchy & Peace
The most based ‘Valley girl’ around, Carey Wedler, joins B.R to discuss Anarchism, peace and non-political solutions to tyranny. Carey gets into how she went from an Obama voter to a die hard Ron Paul supporter, how the clear corruption of the electoral process lead her to Anarchism and what the philosophy really means and why ‘Anarchy’ has been drilled into the masses minds to mean ‘chaos’ rather than ‘without rulers’.
The pair also get into how so many have been manipulated into needing a 'daddy' in government, the trauma of mass indoctrination and multi-generational psyops on the populace, finding peace when you hate the state, the grand experiment that was the American Revolution and how it instantly lead to Kings by a different title, Lysander Spooner and much much more!
