Episode #428: Terror Close to Home: Lessons from the Old Dominion Attack

Show featured Sponsor: Tip Top K9 Training 

In this episode, Rich Brown sits down with returning guest Simon Golob for a raw and timely discussion on recent events shaping the security landscape—centered on the terrorist attack at Old Dominion.

This isn't a distant, overseas incident. It's a reminder that violence can surface anywhere, at any time—and often where people feel safest.

Rich and Simon break down what happened, what we know so far, and—more importantly—what it means for the everyday armed citizen.

What you'll hear in this episode:

• A breakdown of the Old Dominion attack and key takeaways
• How modern threats are evolving—and why they're getting harder to predict
• The mindset gap: why most people are still unprepared for sudden violence
• Awareness failures and environmental blind spots in public spaces
• Where armed citizens fit—and where they don't—in events like this
• Practical considerations for movement, positioning, and decision-making under stress

This episode isn't about fear—it's about clarity.

Because the question isn't if violence exists.
The question is whether you're prepared when it finds you.
