Summary

On this  installment of the Gutowski Files we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of thereload.com and discuss the skyrocketing cost of a concealed weapons permit in one California city and we ask why republican candidates aren't discussing gun laws and policy in their campaigns.


Active Self Protection exists to help good, sane, sober, moral, prudent people in all walks of life to more effectively protect themselves and their loved ones from criminal violence. On the ASP Podcast you will hear the true stories of life or death self defense encounters from the men and women that lived them. If you are interested in the Second Amendment, self defense and defensive firearms use, martial arts or the use of less lethal tools used in the real world to defend life and family, you will find this show riveting.  Join host and career federal agent Mike Willever as he talks to real life survivors and hear their stories in depth. You'll hear about these incidents and the self defenders from well before the encounter occurred on through the legal and emotional aftermath. Music: bensound.com

Well, hello, gang.

He is the founder of the reload.com and the host of the weekly Reload podcast.

Now, I just want to start out by saying I just got back from my home state of Maryland,

0:19.3

the old line state, if you will, home of the black-eyed Susan and the

0:24.1

Baltimore Oriole. And it was, I didn't see any Susan's or Orioles while I was there because it was

0:28.1

bitter cold. It was like five degrees. My poor wife who grew up in California and now lives in

0:32.9

Arizona didn't love it. She didn't love the weather, frankly. And Stephen tells me that he is,

he's looking very rugged now in his outdoorsy jacket and Wrangler hat because he loves the cold.

0:43.6

Stephen, you love the cold? Is that true? I love snow. Yeah, I like the cold. It's snowing here

right now in Virginia. Also, you didn't stop. You didn't stop by. What the heck? We could

0:53.8

have gotten a half smoke or a crab cake or something.

0:57.3

I would have liked to join you at Ben's Chili Bowl. The problem is it was too freaking cold and there was too much snow and ice. That's actually the perfect time for Ben's chili bowl. Yeah, you're actually right. You are right. However, with that said, we're not sure we're having the Katowski files next week because we got shot show coming up.

1:22.4

1:23.0

1:29.2
