Dear Shooter

Ten De Aragua is being evicted! That's right, Aurora is closing down their apartments. And we have a nice ride to get them back to Venezuela!

After surviving the terrible twos (or getting there, anyway), we're back with more caffeine in our system than ever before! Join us as we navigate through adult life with the grace of a penguin on roller skates.

It's the last show of the year, and we are discussing the holidays, a few mishaps and what is coming in 2025. Even the Dear Shooter mascot chimes in. We touch on the Madison School shooting and analyze the initial issues with the .224 Valkyrie. Most of all we wish you, our listeners, a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

We've got Jayden Haslin in the studio, ready to break down why some old-timers are treating the range like their personal country club. You know the type – they've got more opinions than rounds in their ammo can and think the only way to learn is how they did it back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed here are our own and may not represent those of t...

We've all heard the tropes, racking a shotgun will scare away any intruder, oh and that light / laser on your firearm, that will give you away. How about I called the police, so I'll be ok till they get here. Some really bad advice and fuddisms just refuse to die. So we explore some of the common tales we've all heard. Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed here are our own and may not...

We're about to get down and dirty with the nitty-gritty of range safety. And trust me, this isn't your typical "point the pointy end that way" conversation. We're talking about all those things that make you go "Hmm" at the range - like why that one guy's brass keeps hitting you in the face, or why the Range Safety Officer looks like he's having seven simultaneous heart attacks. Disclaimer: The st...

We're jumping into the ring for another round of "My Caliber Can Beat Up Your Caliber!" Because apparently, we haven't beaten that dead horse enough. Speaking of horses, Hornady just dropped what they're calling a "new caliber" - and folks, it's about as new as my grandfather's war stories. But hold onto your holsters, because we've got some spicy news from the Lone Star State! Texas is making wav...

So, raise your hand if you're sitting there staring at your mountain of ramen noodles and wondering if you'll ever make it through all those cases of energy bars before they expire. Don't worry, you're not alone! Maybe it's time to take a class, or enter a competition? You've got the stuff, now it's time to have some fun.

First the famous Peanut – not your average bushy-tailed tree dweller – who's been making waves in ways only a squirrel could. Then we'll crack open the latest novel that's got everyone talking... and by novel, I mean the War and Peace-sized legal paperwork now shipping with every Glock. Seriously, you'll need a forklift to carry this thing out of the store. And because we love living dangerously,...

We're wrapping up our epic Ballistic Summit series with some seriously awesome women who are about to show us that cameras aren't just for selfies anymore. That's right folks, we've got the brilliant minds behind Tactacam in the house, and they're packing some heat... well, technically they're packing cameras, but these aren't your grandmother's point-and-shoots! They're here to spill the tea abou...

Grab your nose plugs and put on your BS detectors, because we're diving deep into the cesspool of media manipulation today! Welcome to another episode of "The Truth Stinks!"

Jason Wilson takes the helm with special guests Michael Bane and Bryan Dewar. Now, let's be honest here... we didn't so much "sit down" with Michael Bane as we did strategically place drinks in front of him until he couldn't escape. Some might call it an ambush interview, we call it tactical hospitality!

Welcome to another explosive episode coming to you live from the beautiful Whittington Center, where we're smack dab in the middle of Ballistic Summit 2024. We've got the fantastic folks from Bishop Ammunition and Firearms in the house, ready to drop some serious knowledge bombs about their latest and greatest. And hold onto your brass, because we're also diving deep with Opal Ammunition to see wh...

We're diving into Mother Nature's latest mixtape – featuring Hurricane Helene dropping those tropical beats while the Midwest is literally bringing the heat... and not in a good way. But wait, there's more! We're also going to tackle that awkward conversation about what happens after you've gone all John Wick in self-defense. Spoiler alert: it's not as clean-cut as Hollywood makes it look, folks.

we're sitting down with Brian Fox, a retired Marine who participated in this year's epic antelope hunt. And let me tell you folks, this isn't your average "I went hunting one time" story. We're talking about a Marine who's gone from dodging bullets to tracking pronghorns, and trust me, he's got some stories that'll make your MREs seem gourmet!

Grab your bulletproof vests and your sense of humor, because today we're diving into a story that reads more like a Hollywood script than headline news. That's right, folks – we're talking about yet another close call for the man who just can't seem to stay out of the spotlight, and why this election season might have us all building bunkers in our backyards.

Things go a little off the track as we discuss how not to store your firearm and the Brady Campaign is teaming up with Transgender advocates to imply that gender affirming care for minors will reduce gun violence.

Boy, do we have a doozy for you today! Picture this: A quiet Colorado city, known for its shopping malls and decent pizza joints, suddenly finding itself in what feels like a telenovela gone rogue. That's right folks, we're heading to Aurora, where things have gotten spicier than a Venezuelan hot sauce! Grab your popcorn and maybe a bulletproof vest - because this story is absolutely bananas!

Today we're talking about those reloading headaches that make us all want to pull our hair out, and boy, do we have some stories to share! But hold onto your brass catchers, because we're also unpacking that jaw-dropping ruling from Wichita that's got the gun community buzzing like a mag dump on full auto.

Today, we're putting on our detective hats and taking a magnifying glass to the Democrat National Convention - because nothing says "fun times" quite like watching politicians try to dance around the Second Amendment. And oh boy, do we have a spicy one for you today! We're going to peek behind the curtain at what might be coming down the pipeline if a certain former prosecutor gets a promotion to...

Ever thought packing your vacation suitcase could land you in hot water? Well, grab your passport and leave your common sense at the door, because we're heading to Turks and Caicos, where apparently bringing a few forgotten bullets in your carry-on is about as welcome as a hurricane during peak tourist season.

Today we've got Jarred Nettles in the studio, a guy who decided to go big or go home with his first-ever flight – by heading straight to Africa! Talk about jumping into the deep end, right? We're diving into his epic journey through Free State, South Africa, where this aviation rookie turned international explorer discovered that sometimes the best stories start with "So, I've never been on a plan...

Grab your favorite beverage, settle into your bunker of choice, and get ready for our completely unauthorized, slightly jet-lagged, breakdown of the incident that had Secret Service agents saying, "Seriously? This is what we're dealing with today?"

We dive deep into those sneaky little behaviors that somehow became part of our daily routines. You know, like checking your phone 47 times during breakfast, or convincing yourself that ice cream is a perfectly acceptable dinner three nights in a row. So grab your metaphorical magnifying glass, and maybe put down that third cup of coffee you're reaching for - yeah, I saw that - because we're about...

Chicago has once again been labeled as having the deadliest holiday weekends in the country. But who is to blame? Surprisingly, the mayor has pointed fingers at none other than Richard Nixon. How does a former president from the 1970s factor into the modern-day violence in our streets?
