REDACTED Culture Cast

Talk Back to MeWe are often able to articulate clearly, the things we wish would change, while at the same time have difficulty showing gratitude for specific things. Here are three things REDACTED is thankful for. It's meant to be short, and clear. Thank you Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeJokes, Joys, and Despairs aside, Gun Culture, like any other, has its trends. And while Recce may look like it's challenging the mystical throne that has been held by CQB, it suffers what all revolutionaries eventually must deal with: becoming the one thing they hate. One thing about CQB that became old, and quickly, was the idea that it was some secretive art, part technique, part magic, and if we're not careful, reconnaissance may repeat the same fate. So today we have a conversations with Blake Flannery of Maneuver Training Solutions, who has spent more years in Recon than many of us have been carrying a rifle, for fun or otherwise. We start with where it belongs in the greater ecosystems, and break down some of the mystery into objectives, goals, and techniques. Follow Blake Flannery at @blakewater0326 and check out Manuever Training Solutions at www.maneuvertrainingsolutionsllc.comSupport this show at www.redactedllc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWhether you're familiar with Ian Strimbeck's 'Thought Crimes' or considering the multiple benefits of practicing Jui-Jitsu, RuneNation represents an evolution in training, as instructors continue to move beyond the flat range. We cover some of the issues with the way veterans expect the military to handle their departure, and how the society that we live in can be actively working against our desires to be more self sufficient. Ian Strimbeck's approach to training can be a breath of fresh air in a subject that suffers from stagnation, but that's not the end of it. Instead of simply presenting a new coat of paint, we engage with more than the new trends. Follow RuneNation at @runenationllc or check out his course list and Thought Crimes at www.runenationllc.com. Thank you for listening.

Talk Back to MeThere are pernicious ideas which travel through cultures, and peoples which offer a moral exchange: gain temporary relief from the burden of thinking, in exchange for a later crisis of conscience. This idea travels through depictions of war as a dehumanizing force. It commits multiple logical fallacies along the way, and ones that, unlike in the halls of academia, leave trails of bodies wherever they go. In this episode of the REDACTED Culture Cast, the idea of where morality is located sits at the center of a series of considerations, addressing the effectiveness of pragmatism, how leadership ought function, and what people pay when they reject the responsibility of being thinking men. Thank you for listening.

Talk Back to MeAfter a series of deployments and time spent in Ranger Battalion, Drew Wallace started down the path of a style of shooting many of us are familiar with from movies, myths, and legends, one combining the skills of horsemanship and marksmanship into a fast-paced heritage and sport. Described as a Western Speed Equestrian Sport, Drew Wallace Competes in Cowboy Man and Shooting, and we cover the history of the style, how it translates to the type of shooting familiar to Ranger Battalion, and how he got started. While we are actively seeing modern Gun Culture expand into activities like overlanding, the style of shooting that Drew Wallace participates paints the Marksman as something built into the history of Americana. A window into how what was once old is new again, the concept of an Armed Populace may have gone through a season of shadow, but is hopefully returning to the norm. Follow Drew Wallace on Instagram at @therangercowboy Follow Us: @redactedllcSupport the Show: redactedllc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWhen the Flux Defense Raider first caught our collective attention, it looked like the fusion of two worlds: the allure of a secretive mission combined with that kind of practicality which harkens to the everyman. In this episode we cover what it was like bringing the concept to life, social media shenanigans, community building, and where gaming meets gun culture. Follow Alex on Instagram at @freetime.alex and his multitool at tumitactics.comGet updates, snatch a Raider at fluxdefense.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc and support the channel at www.redactedllc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeThe American Debate on Gun Control regularly breaks apart when a utilitarian argument meets a rights-based one. The problem with how we think about violence, is that we too often resort to using it as a method of enforcement, instead of an action that is judged based on the context. The idea that an armed society is a polite society may have allure, but ultimately falls short of establishing a moral requirement, and instead opens the grounds for an ends-justify-the-means conclusion. So we engage with an argument which attempts to show that in order for a society to be moral at all, it must not have a government infringing on that right, and the exercise of the right to bear arms is part of agency being a necessary option to begin with. Support the Podcast at redactedllc.com At the time of publishing, we are running a pre-sale on V.2 SUBDUEDSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeIt's not enough to use the Second Amendment as merely a legal defense against tyranny. Just as the paper itself does not establish a Human Right, neither does the institution that honors it. But these concepts did not arrive out of the void. Rather the ideas that culminated in the Second Amendment took centuries to crystalize into a codification intending to restrict governments from infringing on the rights of the people. Politicians, movements, and ideologies can all be guilty of simplifying history into a specific narrative: the Enlightenment was a battle between science and religion, the American war for Independence was between good Colonials and bad Red Coats, and history is only written by the victor. While these generalizations can feel helpful at times, if we are to learn from history, we must first understand it, and in order to do so, we must consider how we gather information on the subject. In addition to producing gear for the culture, T.Rex arms also dedicates time to participate in culture building. Isaac Botkin joins the show to discuss what had to come to pass before we were able to produce a document with the express purpose of defending the right to bear arms. T.Rex Arms products can be found at trex-arms.com and on Instagram at @isaactrexarmsSupport the Podcast at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeCommunications may get a bad rapport in Universities, but when it comes to communities and conflict, it bears the same weight as logistics. Gun Culture has long held a symbiotic interest with Radios, radio tech, and the legalities surrounding them. Mojave Repeater knows more than a thing or two about both radios and communicating through them, and helps guide us through the murky environment that is what they are capable of, as well as what to look out for to stay on the good side of the law.You could say that Mojave Repeater runs a commo shop, which means one thing to military and veterans, and a whole different concept to those engaged in the public market. His experience and expertise covers both the equipment, and how to use it, and more importantly, how to make it work for you instead of you spending your time trying to justify the capability. Follow Alex Vallorosi of Mojave Repeater at @mojave.repeater and check out his shop at www.mojaverepeater.comPre-Orders for the V2 Shirt have just dropped and will close on 11/13/22, at redactedllc.com Follow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeThe subject of violence is inherently bound to both metaphysical presumptions and ethical evaluations. Due to the immense moral consequence of acts of violence, how we evaluate an action to be violence and how that action is evaluated carry heavy weight. So, how we think about it must be considered with grave seriousness. In this episode, we start dissecting the concept of violence into its parts: metaphysics, ethics, and epistemology, as well as consider how logic plays a role. Support the show at redactedllc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc
