REDACTED Culture Cast

Talk Back to MeThe pursuit of Knowledge is its own reward, or so the saying goes. And although this saying might have some immediate motivating value for those engaging in academics, it rarely receives the treatment it deserves. Clairvoyance is one of those words that, like enlightenment, receives more abuse than proper use. Particularly from hippies, fools, and pseudo-intellectuals. Alone, it comes to no good end, and might be a curse. A great terror which haunts me is the fear of one day being granted the ability to see clearly, only to discover that I have intentionally blinded myself to avoid the tasks set before me. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Collin Underdahl, an Instagram influencer and expert on dismantling gossip, joins the podcast to discuss topics such as the commodification and impact of gossip, balancing secrecy and morality in military operations, and the negative effects of information overload. They also touch on the significance of pro bono work in upholding moral integrity and society's shifting moral compass.

The podcast explores the denial of God and the consequences it carries. It discusses the downfall of the New Atheist movement, the impact of the Enlightenment era, and the challenge of liberalism. The hosts also delve into the book of Proverbs, the importance of repentance, and the denial of order and rules in our language.

Talk Back to MeBeau Doboszenski returns to address what might be the greatest casualty of the contemporary world: Trust. While it goes hand-in-hand with the Post-Information Age, this subject looks differently for those inside the group, than it does for those outside. As we see trust breakdown between the citizens and the government, we are also witnessing a dissolving of trust within Gun Culture. The first may be expected given the infringements, but with each new day comes a new reason to be skeptical of even those in our midst.  Follow Beau and Defensive Mindset Training on Instagram at @dmtdefendersCheck out their library list of drills and training at defensivemindsettraining.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWe've all likely heard it before: if you're not fit, you're going to die. If that's the stick, what does the carrot of physical conditioning look like?Some respond well to the stick, others to the carrot, so it can be argued that a good combination of both go a whole lot further.Ian Strimbeck is the man behind RuneNation, providing training, philosophy, and if you search right, thought crimes.Ian Strimbeck can be found on Instagram at: @runenationllcCheck out his writing and classes at runenationllc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWe're all familiar with the Rat Race in Gun Culture. Call it Keeping Up with the Jones if you want, but the effect extends beyond gear. Got a rifle? Now you need to train with it. Train with your rifle? Now you need a plate carrier, then NODs, then lock picks, then radios and on and on and on.   At the same time, contentment can look an awful lot like complacency. Discernment will be necessary.

Talk Back to MeGypsy Walters in this episode that covers the breadth and depth of Gun Culture. So much has changed in the past decade within the circle: from people's participation, to gear, to personalities, to aspirations for the future. His work, from tattoos to illustrations can be found throughout.He presents the idea of having "One Lap in the Arena" he addresses it from both looking forward, and backward. The classic microcosm in Gun Culture may be that day your skills will be tested, but when pulling back at one's life, the saying takes a deeper meaning.Follow Ethan on Instagram at @gypsywaltersArt, Illustration, Tattoo Info, and more can be found at houseofwolvesslc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeAdmittedly it can be a semantic game, but when it comes to gatekeeping, the conversation within Gun Culture has become almost entirely one-sided. Call someone's behavior out as gatekeeping and the conversation's over. We see this elsewhere in society: losing the argument? Call your opponent a racist. Didn't get the position you wanted? Patriarchy.In order to maintain integrity, we ought observe the appropriate use of the term Gatekeeping, and be sure we're not tearing down the standards that serve as the foundation of our community. Closing Music: Genesee Avenue by GostSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeTen years ago "Tribe" led the charts as a buzzword. Today, the word is community. If it's a good thing, we call it being part of a tribe, if it is a bad thing, we call it tribalism. If it's a good thing, we call it a community, if it's a bad thing, we call it a cult. Is the difference just that simple? Yes and No. Adding detail to our language enhances our ability to maneuver the world. We live in a time where citizens, especially men, are starved for a sense of community. As a result, charlatans take advantage of that void to make a quick buck, to lure a quick con. If our lives do not depend on our ability to navigate such things, our souls certainly do. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeFor fun, we are going to engage in one of those classic topics: Capitalism vs. Socialism. While it is common for us to hear that Socialism is based on compassion, where Capitalism is based on Greed. However, as much as that argument tries to stick, it continues to feel off. In this episode we exchange in how to address this argument, and a similar one that pits Mercy against Justice. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc
