Actor | Builder | Outdoorsman | Defender In this episode of Hold This Thought Podcast, Jeff Tullis joins me and we dive into his time working as an extra on major film sets, sharing behind-the-scenes stories and what you learn observing well-known actors from the background. Then we move into construction and the 2007 - 2008 housing crash, where he experienced firsthand how quickly markets can turn and trust in institutions can shift. From there, we discuss political violence, media narratives, and the Second Amendment through the lens of responsibility and protection. We close in the outdoors: hunting, fishing, and why stewardship matters just as much as standing guard.Chapters:00:00 | Acting Background & Early On-Set Experiences08:07 | Working with James Franco & Ad-Libbing on Set11:07 | Starting Construction at 17 & Learning the Business14:03 | The 2007 Housing Crash & Sudden Financial Collapse20:03 | Pipe Farms, Bank Behavior & Market Fallout23:52 | Supply, Demand & Real Estate Market Dynamics25:08 | Podcast Influence & Charlie Kirk Discussion30:01 | Conspiracies, Ballistics & Breaking Down the Event35:25 | First-Time Gun Ownership & Practical Advice45:17 | Church Security, Threat Detection & Real Incidents01:00:04 | Trout Fishing, Hunting & Outdoor Lifestyle01:10:19 | Hunting Philosophy, Family & Changing PerspectiveSubscribe for honest conversations about the ideas shaping culture, business, and our world around us.👉 https://www.youtube.com/@HoldThisThoughtPodcast?sub_confirmation=1
