  • Critical Information! (Must have SA to learn SA)

    Yes, the loud commercials and the expert’s incredibly fast, mumbling speech is a turn off, but STAY TUNED and pay attention! The content is vital to every person, not just tourists. Ignore the distractions and learn then practice these valuable lessons. Especially women with crazy ex’s and/or small children. Teach this to everyone whom you love!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Reading the Cartel Environment: What a Retired DEA Agent Learned About Threat Assessment, Human Intelligence, and Staying Alive Inside Colom
Q: How did cartels evolve from the 70s-90s to today, especially the shift from Colombian to Mexican groups?
The guest describes the move from Colombian cartels focusing on violence and money laundering to Mexican cartels adopting greater violence and territorial control, while still maintaining a business-like approach to drug distribution.
The Viking Mindset: Building Resilience and Tactical Wisdom with Kyle Lamb
Q: How did you view the transition from Green Beret to Delta and what influenced that move?
The transition was driven by his background in communications within SF and a search for a role that aligned with his desire to be more on the battlefield; he pursued selection and ultimately joined the unit, appreciating the shooting and CQB aspects of SF leadership.
The Viking Mindset: Building Resilience and Tactical Wisdom with Kyle Lamb
Q: What motivated you to join the Army and eventually SF?
His motivation came from a love of the woods and firearms, a desire for adventure, and the influence of the people he met in Special Forces who inspired him to pursue the path despite initial doubts.
WE CHAT WITH FBI AGENT SONJA NORDSTROM ON K9 TRAIINING
Q: How do you decide between training for live finds versus cadaver detection in different scenarios?
Mission-dependent; in wilderness settings a dual-purpose approach can be useful, but at disaster sites a single-purpose cadaver focus helps avoid missing live finds.
WE CHAT WITH FBI AGENT SONJA NORDSTROM ON K9 TRAIINING
Q: Did you always want to work with dogs in the FBI, or did that path reveal itself later?
It was a convergence of interests from childhood and family background, leading to a career where dog training became a natural extension of her FBI role.
