Earn the Ride Down

Episode three of Volume of Fire comes to you from the Outlaw Lounge at Gunfighter Canyon in Flagstaff, Arizona. Ryan starts with "koalafying," the Ranger battalion hazing ritual of bear-hugging a tree upside down, and what it teaches about mind over body. From there, Ryan and Nishan get into finding your wall and pushing it back, why trust fund kids and private equity safety nets change how people take risks, and how Grok Bot has Ryan working twice as hard while getting five times as much done. Then they flip it: learning to slow down and feel the wind, home gyms and saunas, officer vs. enlisted and doing more by doing less, and commander's intent. They finish with a debate on whether the NFA is really dead, laws vs. regulations, poking the ATF in the eye, and why the Second Amendment doesn't give you any rights at all. Hosts: Ryan Cleckner and Nishan Campbell Recorded at Gunfighter Canyon in Flagstaff, Arizona. Nothing in this episode is legal advice.
