	Episode 157: My ‘Go Pouch’	23 Feb 2024	00:19:44
In this week’s episode of Gearing Up, I’m covering a mixed bag of topics. From my latest fixed blade, to knife show updates and my latest EDC thing - the ‘go pouch’. The go pouch is all about convenience and removing friction from my life. It’s stressful enough getting out the door with three kids, so the go pouch helps me get out a bit quicker.

	Episode 156: Blade Texas (and we’ve added video!)	16 Feb 2024	00:19:06
On this week’s episode of Gearing Up, we’re trying something a bit different. I’ve wanted to add video to the show for quite a while, and I finally got tired of sitting around and waiting. I think I’ve got most of the bugs worked out, and now you’ll be able to watch my dumb face as you listen to the show! Check out BladeShowTexas.com for info on the show and to get tickets. A few things about the video: - I realized after recording that the glare on my glasses was extremely distracting. I am fixing that for next time. - I’m distracted quite a bit during this episode because of the video and constantly checking to make sure I’m in frame/focus. - This episode did NOT need video, but I wanted to upload it anyways so I can test everything out.

	Episode 149: My Podcast Setup & How I Record	12 Oct 2023	00:31:33
In this weeks episode of Gearing Up, we’re talking about how I record the podcast. I take you guys through all of the gear that I use and all of the things that make the show work as well as some of the work I’ve put in to streamline this process as much as possible from the recording device to the software to the microphone and I host a cover at all in this episode. It’s not really an EDC episode, but it’s still something that I use pretty regularly. I figured it would be fun to walk through the tools that I use in the process and maybe it just might inspire other folks to start a podcast if it’s something they’re interested in doing. iPad Air FDUCE Mic TomToc iPad Case Ferrite Recording Studio Buzzsprout (affiliate link) Gearing Up is sponsored by NutSac Bags Use code ‘gtdunn’ to save a few bucks & help support the show!

	Episode 146: Backup Blades	21 Sep 2023	00:23:36
This episode of Gearing Up is all about carrying a Backup Blade - why I carry one, how I decide what knife will be today’s backup, and some of the problems that a second knife solves for me. Do you carry more than one blade? If so, why? How do you decide what knife to carry as a backup? If not - what do you think about the idea of carrying multiple blades? Overkill?

	Episode 143: What’s Good for the EDC Community	29 Aug 2023	00:23:40
I sincerely hope that this episode doesn’t come off as too negative. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I needed to talk about this. At the end of the day, I think we should be spending time lifting one another up - not criticizing content creators that you don’t agree with. I had another episode scheduled, but I decided to push it back to make room for this last-minute recording. I saw a video posted on Taylor’s (Best Damn EDC) Instagram that was about a creator calling him out for being bad for EDC. Obvious problems with the clip/video aside, I watched the video that it came from and it left me with some thoughts. After sleeping on it, I couldn’t get it off my mind. Instead of calling someone bad for the community - open a dialogue. Send them a message. Let’s all work together to keep the community positive and growing. And if you have any thoughts on my thoughts ——- shoot me a message! Let’s chat. Support the Show.

In this episode of Gearing Up, we’re talking about slimming down the carry and making conscious decisions about what goes in my EDC bag.

	Episode 121: Has the EDC community become stagnant?	15 Nov 2022	00:31:30
In this week’s episode of Gearing Up, I answer the question: Has the EDC community become stagnant? The question, originally send in by @MartinsEDC on Instagram, really got me thinking! Has it got stagnant? For me, the hobby reaches ‘stagnant’ when innovation and fun take a back seat. But as I spend more time in the hobby (and more importantly, with the people), I find that what makes it stagnant definitely changes. Check this episode out and let me know your thoughts!
