On this week's show, Ben and Phil answer a few listener emails about Elmer Fudd losing this gun, Ben's thoughts on politics, and a certain flower that doubles as toilet paper in a pinch. Charles "The Rabbit Man" Rodney also joins the show for a very special conversation about living through segregation followed by an interview with Purple Heart recipient Omar "Crispy" Avila, and former Army Ranger and co-founder of Black Rifle Coffee Company, Mat Best. The guys talk about whether you should read social media comments, avoiding the victim narrative, and the best facets of gun culture. Enjoy.
