This is an I-Heart podcast.

It's not often in my life and all the things I've seen and all the places I've gone

and the different kinds of worlds I've live in from special operations to the intel world

to working with professional athletes and companies that I end up seeing something that really lifts me up,

that really brings hope to my heart,

that the collective, if you will,

or the American spirit and a direct representation of a group of people

will come together and elicit something really

powerful, something meaningful.

And what I was able to witness over the last several months through a friend of mine,

a new friend, Braxton McCoy, and what he and his initiative was able to do in order to get that

atrocity pulled out of the one big beautiful bill, which was the proposed land sale of

seven million acres of our nationally preserved lands.

And his initiative, along with his friends, to be able to remove that man that was

awe inspiring and so what resulted is out of that was an initiative that needs to continue and has

continued through the sagebrush institute and so today we're incredibly happy to bring on the executive director, Philip, to talk

about Sagebrush and to talk about what they're doing in order to inspire you to really come

to grips and recognize the true importance of what it means to protect the American homeland.

So, ladies and gentlemen, it is a privilege and an honor to introduce Philip Reichert,

executive director of the Sagebrush Institute.

Philip, thank you so much for coming on the show, man.

Thank you, David. We really appreciate the opportunity to come on and tell our story and
