Green Beret James "Smokey" West returns to the podcast to promote the audio release of his book, "A Mind for the Fight: An Evolutionary Mindset and Systems-Focused Approach Towards a Unified Skillset for Self-Defense, Street Survival, and Combat Sports Excellence." We get into a wide array of topics which include stolen valor perpetrators in the martial arts industry, the brutal death of Jim's son, and how he managed to come back from such a devastating setback in life. You can find Jim on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063713902503 and be sure to check out the book available on all formats here: https://www.amazon.com/Mind-Fight-Evolutionary-Systems-Focused-Self-Defense/dp/B09XBSN94C/
