Summary
In this week's Ask me Anything, Ryan and Kipp discuss the meticulous preparation required for bow hunting and share a personal story of a missed opportunity that underscores the importance of vigilance and readiness. It's a broader reflection on the life lesson of embracing new opportunities, even when they come with uncertainties. They also touch on the recent political shifts in the U.S., expressing optimism about the change in leadership with Trump's election victory, while also acknowledging some concerns about his character.
Next, they tackle the intricacies of government spending and the implications of executive orders, drawing parallels to Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter as a model for efficient operations. The discussion broadens to consider the concept of nationwide reciprocity for concealed carry permits, emphasizing the need for legislative processes to curb presidential overreach. By exploring voter motivations in the 2020 election, they highlight the importance of understanding different perspectives, fostering a more empathetic political discourse.
In the final chapters, they shift gears to explore leadership, personal growth, and community engagement. From the formation of regional teams within the Iron Council to the power of delegation and support, they emphasize the importance of creating environments where others can lead and innovate. They examine the balance between external validation and self-worth, providing insights into how personal experiences shape our motivations and resilience.

| 0:00.0 | I've seen so many men who complain about abdication of responsibility in other people. |
| 0:06.5 | And they gripe and they moan about it when the proper attitude is to be grateful that other people aren't doing it. |
| 0:13.5 | Why? |
| 0:14.5 | Because you have the opportunity to do it. |
| 0:17.5 | We wouldn't be listening to this podcast if I just bitched and moaned about it and didn't do |
| 0:21.6 | anything about it. Somebody else would have filled the void that I filled. I looked at it as an |
| 0:25.3 | opportunity and this is why order a man is on the map where it is today leading the men's movement |
| 0:29.7 | is because I wasn't upset about it. I was grateful that I acknowledged an opportunity and stepped |
| 0:35.4 | into that path. |
| 0:43.8 | You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest. Embrace your fears and boldly charge your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time, every time. |

| 1:24.5 | you don't know kip and i went on a hunt with some other friends to Minnesota last week. |
| 1:29.5 | You're two for two, man, on your first two bohuns, two kills, two for two. |
| 1:34.0 | I'm proud of you, but also like, it's not an easy thing. |
| 1:39.1 | Yeah. |
| 1:39.4 | I think if you've never been bow hunting, and even if you're a hunter and you've rifle hunted, nothing against that at all, by the way. But even if you're a hunter, I think it's easy to overlook how difficult it is |
| 1:50.5 | to successfully harvest an animal with a bow. Yeah. And I was talking with Rick about this last week. |
