Drill of the week: 25 yard portion of the FBI 2019 Qualification – 25 yrds, from concealment, draw and fire 4 rounds center mass, drop to kneeling position, 4 more rounds center mass.  20 sec par, all shots inside the FBI Q target count, bonus all rounds within the 10 inch circle under par.  We love the Rangemaster RFTS-Q target since it has the added small targets and the 10 and 8 inch circle added.

This week we have the pleasure of bringing Kato Murakami on the show.  He is a 27+ year veteran police officer in the Chicago Land area and is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.  His company Rectitude Training focuses on life saving training in combatives and weapons based grappling for Law Enforcement but also provides similar training to the civilian defender as well.  Kato discusses his thoughts on how improved training can help keep police officers alive and help them make better decisions with the tools they have or limiting the use of tools to begin with.  He has the philosophy of a modern samurai and has a work ethic in his own training that all of us should emulate.   

This show we also welcome back Eric to the states fresh from his deployment overseas, and of course the crew hit on their accountability of the week. 

Please check out Kato on his social media and seek him out for training.  On Facebook https://www.facebook.com/rectitudetrainingllc/

This week we lost one of the most brilliant and impactful thinkers and instructors in the self-protection community, Dr. William Aprill. William was a member of the Shivworks Collective, and was owner of Aprill Risk Consulting, and was the community's pre-eminent mental health professional providing us the means to understand ourselves and the criminal mind. William will be deeply missed and will leave a void that will be impossible to fill. Our prayers are with him, his family, the Shivworks Collective and all that are impacted by his loss. Please listen to this interview as we celebrate his life and contribution to our us and our families safer.  God Speed William, we will miss you brother.

This episode of the Evolution Security Podcast we are super excited to interview Lanny Bassham - Olympic Gold Medalist and World champion shooter and Preeminent mental coach - Author of With Winning in Mind.  Starting 20 + years ago, Mr. Bassham started influencing the EvoSec Crew with his life changing book and coaching protocols.  Prescribed by pistol instructor and IDPA national champion and good friend Mike Brown (Episode 5), his book enables all who want to excel in any endeavor the mental tools needed to become a world class performer, or maybe you just want to loose weight, his methods work across the full spectrum.  The EvoSec Crew have used his protocols to achieve some major goals and are currently using them to achieve the next goals on their list.

Paul Sharp of Straight Blast Gym Illinois and Sharp Defense comes on the show to provide some additional much needed perspective on the current anti-police sentiment, the state of Law Enforcement and the current riots. Paul is a veteran Elgin Illinois police officer, a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu and is a preeminent expert on multidisciplinary and integrated martial arts under the Shivworks Collective.  Paul hits on some history around previously used police weaponry and tactics in the 30-40s such as full auto BARs, military L-ambushes, and more,, yet the current attitude towards police is that they are too militarized.  Paul picks that myth and many more apart and provides some insight into his training philosophy and his incredible work ethic in the gym.  Paul shows us that he is a true lover of music and the EvoSec crew closes out the show with their accountability and the drill of the week.

EvoSec Drill of the week.  From 5 yards, 2 IDPA targets 3 feet apart.  String 1- Draw and fire 1 shot in T1 and one shot into T2.  Sting-2  Same drill except 2 shots on T1 and T2..  String 3- Repeat but with 3 shots on each T1 and T2.   Total up all three times, and add 1 sec added for any points down on the target. 

This week we are blessed to have Marshal Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting on the show.  He is a 30 year veteran of both law enforcement and the military, and is a well-known subject matter expert in police use of force.  Chuck provides some much needed perspective and expert analysis of the current events to include the tragic killing of George Floyd by a now charged rogue police officer.  He hits on the current riots and the history of similar riots in the 60s, along with the movement to defund the police and the possible impact if this were to occur.  On a lighter note the interview moves to one of Chuck's other areas of expertise and that is the efficacy and use of oleoresin capsicum spray (OC pepper spray). 

"I would invite anyone who thinks its easy to arrest someone who doesn't want to be arrested to put handcuffs on someone who doesn't want to go with them, check in at their local Jiu-Jitsu Dojo and try some Jiu-Jitsu.  If you've never done it before, you will quickly find that even though you are rolling with another white belt, its not as easy as you might think.  And you're in a setting where you both agree not to hurt each other and are training with an agreed on set of rules."  Essentially, if you haven't even done that, you have little perspective to critique law enforcement on the use of force and how you would do it better.  You simply don't know what you don't know.

Chuck provides some excellent commentary so DONT MISS IT!

This week we have Dr. William Aprill back on the show to hit on some very timely subjects.  William is the self-protection industry leader in knowing the criminals mind and the protectors mind and how to use this knowledge to keep us safer.  Some of the topics discussed are the phycological effects of the COVID 19 lockdowns and economic impacts, and current riots spurred by George Floyd's death at the hands of negligent police officers.  William also gives us some insight into the mindset of rabble rousing protestors and how they take advantage of and hijack legitimate protests committing violence and anarchy.  Lastly the crew discusses William's preferred weapons and dry fire tools.  The crew then hits on accountability of the week and prescribe the drill of the week which will be a test, re-test of the Todd Green FAST Drill.
