Happy New Year and welcome to another season of Student of the Gun Radio. As we consider where we are and where we would like to be during this new year, Professor Paul has some advice and encouragement. He details what we are calling the 1 Million Pound Challenge. Is it even possible to lift a million pounds of weight in a year? Listen louder. 

We have a late Christmas present for you and you need to do is listen. Also, will the change of the calendar, during our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc, the Professor has some practical advice to offer. 

For this week's Coffee Corner, from Blackout Coffee, Paul has another installment of recommended reading. This week it is The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi. Which of the several versions should you purchase? 

During our SOTG Homeroom from SOTGU, we are going to consider firearms training. Specifically, Paul will discuss how training has evolved and changed over the past forty years and why we do not do certain things that once seemed practical. For today's episode, we will take a look at the Speed Rock.
