We connected with a bunch of really great people. Today Riley and Cincinnati-based instructor, Rob Beckman, talk about the highlights from the show and which companies and products wowed them the most. There were some surprises along the way…oh, and we do make a little time to talk about a couple of interesting news stories plus one new JUSTIFIED story that teaches an important lesson. Listen in now!

Riley since you have FAILED to educate us with your best Root Beer quest in the last couple of awesome episodes of Concealed Carry Podcast. I’m here to remind you that you need to get back on track buddy. Here is a good resource and guide to follow Eric’s Gourmet Root Beer Site – http://www.gourmetrootbeer.com/index.html But instead of using barrels to categorize each root beer you can use a Bullet to represent a seal of approval root beer, sub-compact gun icon for drinkable root beer, a holster for not so good root beer, and FTF dummy round to represent garbage root beer.
On a more serious note, you should consider including a short Bio with a picture of all the co-hosts like Jacob, Masters, Greta, etc. With a short review on what’s their favorite range or home practice drill, preferred EDC firearm(s) and carry position, holster type, etc. I really enjoyed the episodes on LASR, and with Masters’ on AIWB carry since that is my preferred carry position 1 to 2 o’clock depending on the size of the firearm that I’m carrying; however, in the cooler months I mostly carry OWB 3 o’clock regardless of firearm. Lastly, it’s great to hear a female voice on the podcast like Greta’s. Now get back to the root beer tasting
Jorge,
I can say that I was astonished at just how much Riley knows about root beer. I just got back from the NRAAM with him, and he got root beer to drink at dinner and proceeded to tell me that it tasted like 3 different kinds of root beer in one. That man knows his stuff!
