About this episode

The episode features a discussion with Marty Combs about a real-world home invasion and the lessons learned from the experience.

After Actions Reviews are used to recall, process, and de-brief a situation that happened, why it happened, and if it could've been handled better/differently. This process can enable better understanding overall, can help those who experienced the situation, and can help others who may find themselves in similar situations in the furture. On the "Minutemen Initiative" we use the After Actions Review to allow someone to share a life experience that others could learn from. In this "After Actions Review" Jacob and Stephen sit down with Marty Combs (aka Veritas ) to discuss a real world home invasion situation that went from likely nothing, to potential threat, to a real and unexpected threat very quickly. Marty recalls this event and shares lessons learned as well as other timeless wisdom that many can learn from. See Marty's video here: Home Defense Video FIND MORE FROM MARTY Instagram X (Twitter) We believe there is great value and benefit in listening and learning from others experiences and hearing what they learned from it.
