In this episode of After Dark, I headed to Georgia to meet with Fred Baker out of Counting Coup Tactical. A mystery man of sorts, joined me in discussing his perspective on a wide range of topics from mental health to personal growth, military experiences, family dynamics, collaboration, and the importance of effective communication and comprehensive training. We had ourselves a couple of beers and got right into our discussion.
