Welcome to the Behind the Shoehl podcast. As always, my name's James Gearing. And this week, it is my absolute honor to welcome on the show, California law enforcement officer and member of the Fieldcraft Survival Team, Tyson Shumway. So in this conversation, we discuss a host of topics from his own journey into law enforcement, strength and conditioning in the tactical athlete space, school safety,

road safety, weapons ownership and training, leadership, Wolf Brigade, and so much more.

Now before we get to this incredible conversation, as I say every week, please just take a moment,

go to whichever app you listen to this on,

subscribe to the show, leave feedback and leave a rating.

Every single five-star rating truly does elevate this podcast, therefore making it easier

for others to find. And this is a free library of over 800 episodes now.

So all I ask in return is that you help share these incredible men and women stories

so I can get them to every single person on planet Earth who needs to hear them.

So with that being said, I introduce to you Tyson Shumway.

Enjoy. Well, Tyson, I want to start by saying, firstly, thank you to Derek for connecting us,

and secondly to welcome you to the podcast today.

Thank you.

I appreciate it.

Yeah, Derek's a great guy.

I've been working with him quite a bit lately on

some training and stuff and just a great guy to talk to you and also in law enforcement. So that helps.

Absolutely. And that was Derek Woodsky for people listening. Where on planet Earth are we finding

you this afternoon? So I'm currently in Sacramento, California.

But I'm safe from Hurricane Hillary.

It's further south from us.

So I'm good to go or up in Sacramento.
