	Ep. 196 – Tactical Twins: Election Aftermath, 2A Wins, Training Plans & $20 Food Prep	06 nov. 2026	01:05:52
Eric is joined by his brother and tactical twin Aaron Davis. They cover the midterm results and their impact on the Second Amendment, personal training updates, and practical preparedness. Election & Second Amendment The brothers note the midterm outcome (roughly 54–44 in the Senate) and reiterate that politics cannot be separated from self-defense and the 2A. They highlight ongoing wins under the current administration, including the DOJ amicus brief supporting the pro-2A side in cases such as Vermontes v. Cook County. Oral arguments on assault weapons bans are set for December 2. They credit the conservative Supreme Court majority (shaped by prior Trump appointments) for Heller and Bruen, and view a favorable ruling as one of the biggest 2A wins in years. On the economy they compare current GDP (~3.4% Q3 annualized), unemployment (~4.2%), and CPI (~3.7% / core ~2.6%) to the prior administration, while noting voter focus on gas and grocery prices. They discuss tariffs as short-term pain for potential long-term gain and Iran policy as a driver of energy costs. Looking ahead they point to Trump’s veto power, judicial nominations, and longer-term risks such as a filibuster nuclear option or court-packing. Training Updates Aaron has maintained near-daily dry fire since the Mark Smith (JBS) episode. He has shot several Galactic Pistol Alliance (GPA) matches, improving from mid-silver to gold percentages, and is shooting his Boresight Solutions 19 better than a more tricked-out 17 in some cases. Eric is still rehabbing a calf injury. After closing on a second property he plans the Combatives Summit 2027 (Arizona), Mark Smith’s precision gas-gun course, a Ben Stoeger pistol class, regular competition, and a push toward his jiu-jitsu brown belt. Preparedness In light of the political environment, Eric plans to increase gold/silver holdings, acquire strip lowers, scout rifles, lever guns (.357/.44 and .45-70), and build a dedicated ammo reserve. They discuss Justin Carroll’s article “Food Preparedness on a $20 Paycheck”: https://www.swiftsilentdeadly.com/blog/food-preparedness-on-20-a-paycheck Over four ~$20 Walmart trips (~$80 total) he built a shelf-stable stash (water, rice, peanut butter, tuna, pasta, beans, etc.) totaling ~72,500 calories—roughly 25–30 days for one adult at 2,500 calories/day—while assuming a way to boil water. This is far cheaper than equivalent freeze-dried buckets. The takeaway: start small and consistent rather than aiming for perfection. Other Notes They also touch on ongoing music projects (including new bumper music) and AI tools that are helping Eric manage production so he can focus more on guests. Listeners who want to skip the political discussion can jump ahead using Spotify chapters once published.
	Ep. 195 - Jeremy Brast: SCOTUS AR-15 Cases, NFA Changes and Practical AI for Small Businesses	27 oct. 2026	01:31:59
Eric is joined by longtime friend and colleague Jeremy Brast of Chapter 2 Solutions. They cover shared Army and civilian work history, the Supreme Court taking up AR-15 ban cases, the ATF’s recent open letter on NFA items (SBRs, SBSs, and suppressors) following the tax reduction to zero, and Jeremy’s new AI consulting business aimed at small businesses. The episode also includes gear talk (Bone Frog 77gr 556 ammo, Glock 19 + Tenicor, compact mag pouch ARs) and plans for future training. Guest Jeremy Brast – Founder of Chapter 2 Solutions Website: www.chapter2solutions.ai (note: .ai, not .com) Email: jeremy@chapter2solutions.ai Offers a free 15-minute assessment for small business owners plus paid deeper assessments and implementation help for AI tools, workflow automation, AI receptionists, RAG knowledge bases, and more. Key Topics Jeremy’s background: Western New York, Army infantry to signal, deployments (including IED injury in 2005), contracting, and ~16 years in the same civilian job as Eric Shared work history, combat patches, and the current generation of soldiers Shooting and training: Glock matches, canceled NRA ARC matches, and plans for joint training SCOTUS AR-15 cases: Virmonte v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins (combined). Narrow question on whether the Second and Fourteenth Amendments protect ownership of AR-15-type rifles. Arguments scheduled for December 2; decision expected by June 2027. Discussion of “in common use,” Heller, and Bruen. ATF / NFA update (open letter dated ~October 9, 2026): Following the tax reduction to $0 on certain NFA items under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and related litigation, ATF is exercising enforcement discretion and will no longer require approval or registration for short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, silencers, and any other weapons. Strong caveats on state and local law (including North Carolina and Georgia). Chapter 2 Solutions: Practical AI for small businesses — free 15-minute assessments, social media automation, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) knowledge bases, AI receptionists, scheduling tools, and workflow builds. Emphasis on tools that save time and capture leads rather than replacing people. Gear: Bone Frog 5.56 77gr Barnes Match Burner (comparison to Black Hills Mk 262), Glock 19 Gen 5 with Ghost trigger and Tenicor Velo 4 holster, compact AR builds (including a 10.5" folder and 300 Blackout), and related accessories.

	Ep. 194 - Justin “Danger” Carroll & Molly Johnson – GORUCK, Hard Things, and Real-World Competence	29 sept. 2026	01:45:48
Eric brings Justin “Danger” Carroll back on, this time with Molly Johnson. Justin is a Marine vet, deputy, part-time paramedic, volunteer SAR tech, and author of Competent and Dangerous. Justin “Danger” Carroll - Silent Swift Deadly Blog - ⁠https://www.swiftsilentdeadly.com/⁠ Molly is a paramedic (about five years), EMS for seven, and an Orangetheory coach. The conversation is about doing hard things on purpose—not talking about mindset, but building it. What they cover: What a GORUCK Tough actually is: rucksack (20- or 30-lb plate), “coupons” (sandbags, water, fire hose, beer cooler), 12 hours of team suffering Molly’s first event: 70 burpees before they even started, then a 3.5-hour PT block on a Merrill’s Marauders theme Team dynamics— how fast a group either comes together or doesn’t Why the finish-line beer is the best beer you’ll ever drink EMS/LE reality: compartmentalizing trauma, “feel-bad movies” as a pressure valve, and a pediatric arrest that turned into a later apology and hug with a civilian Helene response: water rescue, paper charts, downed comms, and why a simple AM/FM radio still matters when cell service is gone Eric also talks about committing on air to a future GORUCK with them.

	Ep. 193 - Cognitive Conclave 2026 with John Hearne, Lee Weems & Erick Gelhaus	10 sept. 2026	01:24:37
This episode we talk about the up coming Cognitive Conclave 2026 with John Hearne, Lee Weems & Erick Gelhaus Get Registered: https://twopillarstraining.com/conclave/ Eric sits down with the Rangemaster “Chess Club”—John Hearne (Two Pillars Training), Lee Weems (First Person Safety), and Erick Gelhaus (Cougar Mountain Solutions)—to talk about the missing piece in most firearms training: thinking with a gun in your hand, which is the focus of the Cognitive Conclave course. They remember John Holschen, then get into why typical range work often looks more like “firing squad training” than real problem-solving. Decisions get stripped out of the drill. Then people are shocked when those skills don’t transfer. Main points from the conversation: John’s “doorbell assignment” analogy — most training tells you exactly what to shoot, when, and how many times Lee on Claude Werner’s line that a lot of instruction is just firing-squad work, and why the four safety rules have to live inside the course of fire Erick on Scotty Reitz’s “blue tape / judgmental prez” drill, visual processing vs. audio cues, Neuros, and Mirage targets Force-on-force is still the gold standard for complex decisions, but logistics limit reps. Cognitive-load live fire gives far more decision cycles in a day Technical skill still matters. Multiple sources (including Adam Biggs’ research, plus high-level shooters like Frank Proctor and Matt Little) point to about USPSA B-class as the point of diminishing returns — after that, thinking and tactics matter more than chasing the next classification This work is a supplement to force-on-force, not a replacement Cognitive Conclave 2026: October 24–25 Coming up from the guests: Lee – Rangemaster reunion in December, TACCON presentation work, Enhanced Coaching Skills Erick – Low-light pistol (Meridian, ID), shotgun (Piru, CA), Problem Solving Pistol at Mead Hall (OK), Red Dot Instructor (New Orleans area) John – Who Wins / Who Loses lecture with Karl Rehn, Northwest Law Conference (Seattle), class with Chuck Pressburg at Mead Hall Links John Hearne – Two Pillars Training: https://twopillarstraining.com/ Lee Weems – First Person Safety: https://firstpersonsafety.com/ Erick Gelhaus – Cougar Mountain Solutions: https://www.cougarmountainsolutions.com/ Erick also writes at AmericanCop.com
	Ep. 192 - Justin "Danger" Carroll - Competent & Dangerous	20 août 2026	01:42:08
In this episode of the EvoSec Podcast, Eric sits down with Justin “Danger” Carroll, a long-time friend of the American Warrior Society crew and someone Eric has wanted on the show for years. Justin shares his path from a small Southern Appalachian town through eight years in the Marine Corps, overseas contracting, instructing at the Marine Special Operations Schoolhouse, writing books on digital privacy, becoming a paramedic, and now serving as a full-time deputy sheriff while still teaching EMS and law enforcement academies. Justin's awesome blog: https://www.swiftsilentdeadly.com/ The conversation centers on his excellent book Competent and Dangerous: Master the Skills to be a Man Among Men. the guide he wished he’d had as a 16-year-old. Topics covered include: Building real-world competence across fitness, mindset, EDC, finances, vehicle readiness, medical skills, digital security, physical security, wilderness skills, and social/people skills Why general competence matters more than hyper-specialization Practical first-aid and CPR lessons (including personal experiences) Firearms recommendations for everyday people (compact 9mm options, AR platforms like BCM, and strong advocacy for the shotgun) The value of continuous learning and putting yourself in environments that force growth A practical, no-nonsense discussion about becoming more capable in the real world. Highly recommended listening, and definitely pick up Justin’s book.

Youtube: @ArmoredFlycatcher Sam shares his journey from a Kentucky tobacco farm and four years in the Marine Corps (early GWOT era) to becoming a multi-division IDPA Master and strong USPSA competitor in the competitive Oklahoma/Arkansas/Texas region. He discusses: Jumping into IDPA in March 2023 and rapidly shooting nearly 190 matches The high talent density in the Tulsa area and how local competition accelerates skill His practical, sustainable training philosophy (short, consistent dry-fire, frequency over long sessions) Why he deliberately switched back to Glocks after running 2011s and Shadows—to expose and correct fundamental errors the heavier guns were masking Gear lessons, range culture, and balancing competition with family life A straightforward, no-BS conversation full of useful insights for anyone looking to improve at competition or practical pistol shooting.

	Ep. 176 - Throw back Episode - Mike Brown and Craig Douglas - Celebrating our Mentors	03 janv. 2025	01:49:38
This show we do a throwback to our 100th episode where we talk with our two most important mentors ------ Our 100th show! We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate this milestone than by having our two most important mentors on the show: Mike Brown of the former Praesidium Group and Craig Douglas of Shivworks. Topics: Meeting Mike in the mid 90s, how he became such an important coach and mentor to Eric and Aaron; how he pushed Eric join the TPI forums and to take ECQC. The Twins becoming a host to Craig for multiple classes through the years and how that relationship led to training with others in the Shivworks collective. TPI and its influence on the current multidisciplinary realm and how forums have transitioned to video and social media. Is this good/bad? Who are folks in this multidisciplinary realm whom both Craig and Mike recommend and what makes great instructors. Lastly, we talk a little gear, P365s, red dots, and some other fun topics to close out the show.

	Ep. 175 - Dave "Boon" Benton - Threat Management Solutions Classes - Al-Qaeda Plot 2025	10 déc. 2024	01:19:29
This show we have DB "Boon" Benton of Threat Management Solutions back on the show. Threat Management Solutions, Dave Benton, Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania Boon is a survivor of the 2012 Benghazi Al Qaeda attacks where he was one of the CIA GRS contractors who helped defend and evacuate personnel. Boon, Tyrone "Rone" Woods, Kris "Tanto" Paronto, Jack Silva, Mark "Oz" Geist, John "Tig" Tiegen and Glenn "Bub" Doherty working for GRS saved countless lives in these attacks. Unfortunately, Rone and Bub were both killed during their heroic acts. We also lost Ambassador Christorpher Stevens, and Communications Specialist Sean Smith. Their story was memorialized in the book and movie 13 Hours in Benghazi. Boon is also co-author of the book, Benghazi Know thy Enemy with former CIA Targeting Officer Sarah Adams. DB is also a BJJ Black belt and an expert in the field of combatives. This show we talk details regarding some of the classes that he offers. A few discussed but not limited to, Low Signature Pistol, Close Range Engagement, and Concealed Defensive Carbine. A bonus discussion on Boon's preferred 556 and 300 BLK ammo was also very informative.
