It is safe to say that I have wandered a bit. I served in the military, flew some jets, jumped out of most, climbed mountains (I jumped off of them too), taught fitness, owned a gym, and have spent the last few years speaking to organizations and leaders. It has been a journey, and in all honesty, I have no idea where it is going. I seek the things that make me uncomfortable. I move towards things... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

25 Years Later - Be Worthy of the Sacrifice | Full Auto Friday | 9.11.2026
Q: Question 2: I'm considering asking for pay for my long-time church audio work; how bold should I be and how should I frame the conversation without burning bridges?
Be honest about your tenure, the value you bring, and your current life needs. Frame the discussion as a constructive conversation rather than an ultimatum, propose a fair compensation or paid arrangement, and prepare for multiple conversations. Set a clear time and outline options, then let the decision-makers respond without pressure.
25 Years Later - Be Worthy of the Sacrifice | Full Auto Friday | 9.11.2026
Q: Question 1: I learned through events that the man on my birth certificate is not actually my father; how should I handle sharing this with my family and what should I expect emotionally?
Take your time to decide, acknowledge that the new reality is serious, and approach the family with honesty and consideration. Be prepared for a range of reactions, but prioritize integrity and the long-term health of relationships over short-term comfort. Honest communication, even when painful, can lead to stronger family connections and a more authentic sense of belonging.
You Fall to the Level of Your Training | Full Auto Friday | 8.28.2026
Q: What is the downside to being the most capable person possible, and how should someone approach career transition when leaving a role like policing or special operations?
The host recommends reframing self-talk, recognizing transferable skills, and actively translating military or law enforcement experience into civilian value. He advises exploring interests, testing options, and understanding that capability translates into employability, but finding purpose again may require time and experimentation.
You Fall to the Level of Your Training | Full Auto Friday | 8.28.2026
Q: A close friend discovered his sister has an OnlyFans account and his 15-year-old nephew found the mother's content shared by teammates at school. How should families navigate this evolving digital landscape and protect children?
The host argues that content lives forever, urges parents to educate children about digital footprints, and suggests weighing downstream consequences and protections. He emphasizes empathy, open dialogue, and proactive planning for privacy and safety, while acknowledging personal choices but focusing on real-world impact on minors.
You Fall to the Level of Your Training | Full Auto Friday | 8.28.2026
Q: Andy, I'm a huge fan of the podcast, I recently purchased your book. At this point I'm about halfway through and have found it to be full of great advice. What feedback would you give on a situation I was involved in and what actions would you take?
The host emphasizes that there are many variables in bystander situations; calling 911 and reporting what you saw is valid, and you should assess your own capability and comfort level before taking physical action. Training across ranges (stand-off, punching/kicking, and edged weapons) informs what you can responsibly do, and you should work on filling gaps through practice and education.
