Op-Ed: So why exactly do you need so many guns?

As the gun debate continues to rage in this country, the social media conversation has been dominated by memes and straw man arguments bandied about by the most hard headed among both groups — with gun control and gun rights advocates both circling their proverbial wagons and congratulating one another on the new and witty […]

12 Gauge Microphones: The coolest way to record your music

Like so many of us that work from home, my office has slowly become a sort of shrine to the different lives I’ve lead over the years. From tactical gear to trophies, stacks of books to childhood toys, parts of my office can sometimes feel like a museum meant to help me remember all of […]

Teaching an old dog new tricks: I may not be the Marine I once was but I’m cool with that

Since becoming a dad, there’s been a running joke among my friends and family about how fatherhood is making me soft. It’s a fair observation to make: I do spend a lot more time watching animated animals sing nursery rhymes now, and words like “cute” and “adorable” are now a part of my day-to-day vocabulary… […]

The US government website that tells you how to survive everything from active shooters to inbound nukes

Our modern world certainly isn’t short on threats — from lone wolf terror attacks to state level threats like a nuclear North Korea to worry about on the global scale and good old-fashioned home invasions and murders to stress over on the local front, it can feel like there’s never been more to prepare for […]

Off the grid before it was cool: Dick Proenneke’s legacy lives on via YouTube

My family recently made the move out of our little corner of the Georgia woods and into full-fledged civilization: neighbors close enough to see and interact with, roads made of pavement instead of dirt, and some sort of conspiratorial organization that operates in the shadows but seems to exert a great deal of influence over […]
