Mike recently returned to the American Warrior Show for an interview with friend and host Rich Brown.
Mike and Rich covered a lot of ground in the interview, from lessons learned in the 1970 Newhall gunfight, to issues in modern day policing. They also discussed the historical parallels between the cultural and political revolutions of the 1960s and 1970s, and today’s political scene.
You can find the interview at this link, or via your favorite podcast streaming service, by looking for Episode 387 of The American Warrior Show. It’s also available on the American Warrior Society’s social media page (look for the entry on Friday, 23 Aug 24).
We hope you’ll enjoy the conversation!
Excellent job Mike. One thing wrong with this episode, it should be heard by everyone in this country.
The truth in plain ENGLISH.
I just got a chance to listen to most of this podcast. Well done, Mike. You guys covered a lot of serious topics and you spoke well on them. As a bonus I learned a few new terms, my personal favorite being “Gun Luddite”. Golf clap on that one!
Haha! Thank you Sir!
Please excuse my tardiness in posting a comment, I’m still pleasantly surprised with the results of our recent election!
Nice job walking host Rich Brown through the details of the Newhall shooting. I also appreciate that you mentioned NYPD P.O. Scott Gadell’s during the discussion.
You also raised excellent points about the challenges of police recruitment in today’s society. In my area of western Georgia, departments are advertising on billboards and portable electronic signs.
Our current crop of officers seem to be afraid to take action or offend feelings if “On Patrol Live” is accurate. NYPD dismantled their Anti-Crime unit, so the hard charging, arrest oriented, crime fighting segment has been eliminated.
As you pointed out, it’ll take a while for officers to learn or re-learn skills required to combat the armed predators amongst us.
Keep up the good work!
The Republic just got a stay of execution. Now we need to get busy fixing it!
