About This Episode:

Today, Riley Bowman and Jacob Paulsen have a lot to unpack–and this month, all eyes are on Twin Falls. From a road-rage confrontation that turns into a hard lesson on drawing against an unarmed attacker to a lunchtime rescue nobody saw coming, this episode is packed with real-world defensive gun use stories that test the limits of what you think you know about self-defense.

We dig into the tactical trap of the “unarmed but advancing” threat, a homeowner who'd already been targeted more than once, and a self-defense claim a grieving family is fighting out in public. Plus: our full take on the In-N-Out shooting — what the armed responders got right, what's still up for debate, and the split-second decisions worth studying long after the headlines fade. Tune in so you don't miss!
