REDACTED Culture Cast

Talk Back to MeJohn Lovell, former Ranger and founder of the Warrior Poet Society has produced a book, but is it any good? After reading The Warrior Poet Way, some arguments fall flat, where others stick the landing with effective writing and a strong thesis. John Lovell is no philosopher, or at least that's what a reader might take from his chapter on philosophy. At the same time, he presents something deep and valuable, even if it arrives unannounced. SPOILER WARNINGAfter providing an overall review of the book, we will dig into each chapter, engaging with the arguments and evaluating the thesis within. The Warrior Poet Way is a book that belongs on the shelf, even if it doesn't define it.

Talk Back to MeCalling it a review wouldn't be sufficient, and besides, there's plenty of places to go for that, some of which I may have even had a hand in. The SABRE-10 by Palmetto State Armory deserves recognition for presenting itself as two very different concepts, pulling each of with relative success. The first for a Sub-$2000 rifle, you get quite a bit. From Mags and a bag, to a rifle that holds a reasonable zero for what you're getting it's a good launching point for a .308 caliber rifle. Is it perfectly clone correct? No. but it hits the highlights. It is ready to go out of the box? Again no, but after a little breaking in and a few swapped parts, it goes a long way, if you catch the precision rifle pun.

Talk Back to MeThe history of training can be depicted like a spiral. While back and forth it looks like a flat circle with what was popular 30 years ago once again in vogue. Pull back a little, however, and that circle is going somewhere. Tim Selbrede returns to the REDACTED Culture Cast to talk about lessons learned from Night Vision instructor courses and DARC to go beyond the memes about how CQB is a good way to die. Beyond developing skills, as we have had opportunities to consider and analyze not only what we train, but how we do it, we better equip future generations to excel where we struggle.

Talk Back to MeDecentralization will have its consequences, and to centralized authority, it will look like collapse. This comes with a warning. A suicide deemed martyrdom on one side of the globalized country may radicalize the actions of another, who takes it out on innocent children. This is the underground precursor to holy war, only one half of the equation doesn't necessarily believe they are religious to begin with. The death of Nex Benedict, named Dagny by her parents, could have been the catalyst as described above, only once the details came out, they told a very different story. Instead of a Martyr, Dagny may have been the bully, or at least likely had the attitude of one, using their claimed gender identity as justification and power in the matter. Tragically, she took her own life. Never let a good tragedy go to waste? We typically approach this phrase with the assertion that a person's interest in a particular tragedy is only opportunistic. However, the weaponization of tragedy is much darker, and more dangerous. The seeds of a holy war of unholy proportions. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWhich Way Western Man? In a recent action, Texas has signed into law the requirement for adult content websites to implement age verification. In response, figures such as David Hogg commented the following on X "It’s crazy Texas sees porn as a greater threat to public health than the AR-15 used in Uvalde." either inadvertently identifying pornography as a potential risk to public health by comparing it to guns, or directly portraying them as an either-or, both are inspected in moral and cultural terms. Social Media already prefers soft core pornographic material to firearms related content. Government regulation brings up another question. Is porn a free speech issues?Morality and Consequences: Fathers teach their sons to shoot a firearm, and safely. At the same time it is the father's responsibility to warn and protect their children from pornography. The breakdown and persecution of the nuclear family puts both of these duties in jeopardy. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeArguments back and forth over gun control often follow consistent strains that resemble genetic lines through time. A bad argument of the 60's is reborn as if it were a new idea in 2013, only to be killed off quickly, but be resurrected again less than 10 years later. What are these argumentative strains when it comes to Gun Control? In this episode, four different genomes of Gun Control are presented, as well as their philosophical strains.Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWhen it comes to conversation on 5th Generational Warfare, we often get bogged down in the discussion on defining the terms, so much so that we are exhausted before getting to the application. James Lindsay joins the REDACTED Culture Cast as a guest to discuss not simply the description of how "woke" is used in a war-like fashion,  but how to address it and what the rules of engagement may be. We discuss the differences between tactics, strategy, and theology, and how they interact with one another. How do you identify a dishonest interlocutor? What is the proper response to entryism?

Talk Back to MeLook at the literature of Christian writers on Masculinity, and you'll see a long lineage of writers putting black ink to white paper on the war waged on masculinity. Does it disregard the conflicts they face? No. But does the imagery and metaphor of warfare do itself justice? Is there a war on masculinity? Is it true, or, is Christian Masculinity being persecuted? What is the difference?Listen and find out. Go forth and conquer. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeJust because Academia suffers from internal decay and the death of its legitimacy, doesn't mean we ought abandon the tenants of it's development. C.B. Robertson returns as a guest to present an argument regarding the use of language and how it applies to reality. Accurately conveying ideas from one person to another must pass through the lens of individual subjectivity and it has consequences about what we know about reality. So we engage in the subject of subjectivity without the pretense of supremacy without the clause. C. B.

Talk Back to MeSome arguments are like communism: you cannot completely stamp them out, and every once in a while and old dispute must rise to the surface only for us all to realize that it's something stupid we are debating.The comparison of competition shooting to tactical shooting is one of those subjects, full of passionate attempts at equivocating the two things and then claiming one to be the superior form of training. but this leads to a deeper, more impactful topic regarding Gun Culture. Perhaps we're not so demoralized because we're materialistic, but that we've been reduced to buying pouches as the only form of progress. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc
