    Michael Letts: Cops Are Quitting Out Of Misery!

    Bryce welcomes back Sir Michael Letts, founder and president of InVest USA, the nonprofit he started over 30 years ago to get bulletproof vests to law enforcement officers who didn't have them. Michael explains how vest technology has had to evolve from concealable models to titanium-plated active-shooter vests as the threats officers face have escalated, and shares sobering numbers on how many officers still don't have adequate protection. The conversation moves into police morale and recruitment — why departments nationwide are struggling to fill open positions, the mental health and suicide crisis among officers, and Michael's take on the broader forces he believes are driving the decline in support for law enforcement. He and Bryce also discuss hiring practices, the value of military and combat experience in policing, and InVest USA's newer initiatives aimed at rebuilding trust with the next generation, including a graphic novel series, proposed charter schools for first responders, and a "spare change" program connecting kids with school resource officers. Late in the conversation, Michael shifts to breaking news: a foiled plot connected to a recent UFC event, involving a scheme to hack into restricted airspace systems, and what he describes as an intelligence pattern around gangs recruiting teenagers this summer. He also shares recent numbers on child trafficking recoveries and closes with how listeners can support InVest USA directly. 📱 Learn more or donate: investusa.org TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Intro, Sir Michael Letts' knighthood story 01:31 — InVest USA's origin story, 30+ years of providing vests 02:37 — How vest technology has evolved with the threats officers face 04:02 — Current gaps in officer protection 04:29 — Bryce's experience training law enforcement in his jiu-jitsu school 07:01 — New morale study and what's driving the decline 09:20 — Media, funding, and policy dynamics Michael sees affecting law enforcement 12:13 — The George Floyd/Derek Chauvin case and its aftermath 15:37 — Officer recruitment crisis and why departments can't fill open positions 16:39 — Mental health support cuts and the officer suicide rate 19:08 — Hiring practices — veterans vs. other recruiting approaches 20:26 — Why physical presence and combat experience matter on the job 23:53 — InVest USA's youth programs: graphic novel, charter schools, Bless the Vests, spare-change program 26:23 — The recent Capitol-area threat foiled by the FBI 27:02 — Recent child trafficking recovery numbers 27:52 — The foiled UFC-related plot and teen recruitment concerns 29:46 — Michael's proposal for juvenile justice reform 31:28 — How to follow and support InVest USA See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Real J.K. Rowling: Solomon Schmidt on the Woman Behind Harry Potter

    Bryce sits down with author Solomon Schmidt — who started publishing books at age 12 with his "History Bites" series and went on to write about figures like Alan Dershowitz before turning his attention to J.K. Rowling — to talk about his new book, "JK Changed the World." Solomon shares how researching a Tolkien-and-C.S.-Lewis-themed UK tour led him into the world of Harry Potter, and walks through the case he makes in the book: that Rowling wove deliberate Christian symbolism and allusions throughout the series, despite not publicly identifying as a born-again Christian. He and Bryce also dig into Rowling's public stand against gender ideology, the personal history Solomon says shaped her views, and the legal jeopardy she faced in Scotland for speaking out — plus how Solomon himself has faced review-bombing and cancellation attempts since the book's release. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Intro, welcome Solomon Schmidt 00:40 — Solomon's background: starting "History Bites" at age 12 05:00 — How the Alan Dershowitz book project led him toward J.K.

    Real Men, Real Products, Real Talk: Masculine Man Essentials Founder Elliot Greenberg

    Bryce sits down with Elliot Greenberg, founder of Masculine Man Essentials, to talk about how sheer frustration with underperforming "natural" deodorants turned into a mission to build a product actually made for men — reverse-engineered from high-end cologne, developed through 53 formula versions, and made in America. Elliot shares his origin story: switching to natural products with his son, running through failed competitor brands, hiring a chemist, and building the company from the ground up after selling his house and going all-in. He and Bryce dig into the sales-to-entrepreneur path, why authenticity and customer service came first, and Elliot's personal journey with testosterone and TRT. The conversation then shifts into politics — election integrity, the California governor's race and LA mayoral race, and the current administration's efforts around voter fraud investigations. Bryce and Elliot share their views on where California is headed and why they believe accountability is coming. 👉 Get 10% off at masculinemanessentials.com/bryce 📱Follow the brand: @MasculineManEssentials   Ready to JOIN THE FIGHT?
