John Willis from SOE & “Professional Citizens” | SOTG 1287
April 16, 2025 · 100 min

Today we have none other than John Willis from Original SOE Gear as your guest. Never a person to hold back, John will talk about preparation, resilience, business, rabbit poop, chickens and more.

During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. Professor Paul will discuss zeroing red dots and magnified optics as well as answering one of your questions on air. And, we solve the mystery of the missing battery.

For our SOTG Homeroom this week we have a New York Times article to consider. The Times has discovered that some “Professional Citizens” are training with guns, radios, and night vision. We are not sure how they feel about that.
