Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Team Whiskey - Kevin Stang
Q: How did Team Whiskey start and evolve into a whiskey brand and events?
It started as a joke among hunting friends, grew through commitment to community, then expanded from apparel to a tangible whiskey product, and finally into experiential events like the Bonanza that blend archery, music, and philanthropy.
The Edge of Chaos - R.F. Morton
Q: What are your plans for the series going forward?
Morton envisions a five-book arc with potential spin-offs, outlines ongoing development for book three with an established audible plan, and plans to expand into additional formats and markets while keeping core characters and regional settings consistent.
The Edge of Chaos - R.F. Morton
Q: How long did it take to write the first book, and what was your editing process like?
The writing flow spanned about two months for the initial draft, with a month of research and another month of active writing; Morton relied on family for editing, then contracted another pass to refine chapters, fix continuity issues, and prepare for publishing and an audiobook adaptation.
The Edge of Chaos - R.F. Morton
Q: And describe to me your ritual for writing. How did this come about?
Morton describes starting from boredom and a need to fill time, moving from outline to detailed chapter planning, conducting extensive research with industry friends, and iterating through drafts with feedback from family and peers to ensure realism without making it overly technical.
Paramount Defense - Jason Tingle
Q: What do you see as the most important element of responsible gun ownership?
Emphasizes training, understanding legal ramifications, and making safety a family matter, including teaching children about guns in a controlled, safe environment.
