Good stuff, Tim. Being prepared isn’t being scared or fanatical. Most avoid the idea because it’s uncomfortable that evil exists and that it can exist where they are at.
It all comes down to all the millions of little decisions before the fight…. You will never rise to the occasion but fall to your level of training - TK
I have been trying to get my son (16yr old) to take things more seriously. Being aware of all the possibilities the world can throw at you. I tried for a year to get him to start Jiu Jitsu with me and had zero luck…. As a last attempt I started listening to Tim Kennedy podcasts around him and he became a fan. Fast forward 3 months and he is coming with me 3 days a week and and is in love it.!!! Tim my next thing I need you to work on is getting him to seriously consider the military. Every male and a lot of the females In my family have served. I’d love for my son to as well. I know your busy but I’d appreciate if your next few podcasts were on how my son needs to serve….😁. Thanks for all you do.
The military is like college, it’s not for everyone, but if he looks at it seriously tell him to pick a job he can use out of the military; infantry sounds fun but Air Force cyber security will get him a good paying job after without the bad knees and bad back and Va Claims
Great podcast---as a father/teacher with an RV, we travel a decent amount, this is close to my heart. All I really I have is an axe and knife:) We've been throughout the US and have had zero issues-we've met some amazing, helpful people, but I do want to be prepared....Thanks! It seems to me that the closer I am to nature, the better the experiences.
That happens to be the case when you’re not in bad locations. Which is 90% of the country. I’ve traveled with my wife during 2020 and 2021. Had zero issues. Honestly. But being prepared and educated is best
I have been a parent for more than two decades and I learned a lot from this! Thank you for having these important discussions and being willing to share what your own families do. It never occurred to me to also have a set of car keys on me when I’m out with my husband. Gah! I think until recently, we lived in a state of blissful ignorance but age and social circumstances have opened our eyes to the importance of personal protection and family preparedness beyond the basics of first aid and fire escape!
I would love to see an episode on habitual things you do daily, which you wouldn't even think about but there is a particular reason for. i.e. The bit you mentioned about you and your wife always carry a key to the same vehicle. That's probably something so small to you that you'd generally overlook it, but for me it was an absolute gem of advise I hadn't ever thought about, but makes so much sense.
I love everything about this. It makes me feel better about myself for always researching ahead of time where I’m going. You guys make me feel less crazy. 💪🏼🤙🏼
Good talk, appreciate you guys starting this channel. Tim, I also appreciate all you do for us guys in the LEO community. I always encourage my Blue family to train harder and often refer them to different videos you have posted. Thanks. On the note of traveling with kids, we always carry a camp toilet (ie: bucket with snap on toilet lid, bags for it and a light shower curtain for a make shift emergency bathroom). It has proven vital.
I love this podcast, I told my GF about the first one as she is a teacher... I showed her this one as we are new parents. She often thinks I am crazy but after watching this she gets it... Example the other day we were at a restaurant, I was telling her there is one way in and one way out here... she was like Carl stop being silly. I had my back to the wall and was already thinking about breaking the window with my breacher pen if we needed to escape. Btw we are in Britain, we are not allowed to carry anything at all. Sucks.
These podcasts are so informative. Helping to bring light and give a lot more thought to tasks that seem simple until that ONE thing goes wrong. Having you all say these things out loud and bring them to light rather than just read on a message board or some post help grasp it a little more firmly. Thanks for all the great info and keep them coming. I feel a little better and a little more confident in myself and surroundings with my family from the things you all teach. I can only imagine what taking one of your Sheepdog courses would do, and hopefully will be able to sign up for someday.
Because of my background in community mental health, having a ton of friends in military and law enforcement, I’ve always planned for the worst case. I’ve also been in enough situations to know my natural instinct which helps in my planning. I still plan like this with my adult children. I will also use TripAdvisor by reading deep into comments about everything I plan. I spent about 2 hours every night for a week for our trip to Puerto Rico in addition to all other planning. I always purchase additional evaluation insurance but make sure to read the fine print. The only thing I never thought about until I experienced it, from my trip to Mexico was Tarantula season (I never knew there was a season for that) and Tarantula Hawks. I’ve now added animals and insects to that list even traveling from state to state.
12 minutes in I felt so good about my self. I have measured the driving distance and counted with the odometer. Not many people know how to use a map anymore.
It is hard to know how much to protect your child and still letting them have freedom to grow and Learn. But kids mostly don’t realize the danger that is out there. And they think they are invincible. When I was twelve this hit home when a friend drown when boating with his friends and he was a lifeguard. Then a few weeks later a girl was taken from the neighborhood next to mine. We use to walk everywhere and they were not great neighborhoods. But we still thought we would be fine. Because it was familiar to us.
Finaly, one more great YT chanel. Black cofe company, than vigelance elite and sheep dog, and now this. man, all bran new perfect chanel. I love you guys... gretings from serbia, come here for vacation, we stil dont eat people here, i sware to my fathers head!! He-he! i love you people..
I'd give anything for my son to be able to take a course w Sheepdog Response. He just had a son and is legally blind and deaf yet used to train MMA for years. Never allowed to fight. He used to say, "I don't care if I get my @ss best. At least I would have had 1 real fight." We live in OH. I love what you all do. Thank you.
Excellent. I do a lot of planning just for short road trips. Not just for security, but for convenience as well. Are there good places to eat, do they have outdoor seating, is that brewery open on the day we are going, what else is in the area. Google street view is great tool and can give you a feel of the area. My wife found a really nice looking and inexpensive B&B, but the street view of that area showed people lingering in the streets and a cars with a broken windows, I vetoed that one. Keep them coming.
We just got back from Anna Maria islands in Florida. 3 people total . 2 adults 1 child 8 years old . Florida was a great state to visit . Flew with my firearm . 1 bit of advice . Bring waterproof bags for your firearms lol. It was a great time . Paddle boarding was so much fun . Manatee swam right by us twice . I will definitely go back to Florida . Anna Maria islands is also very family friendly . It was very quiet . 100 yards between us and the next person on the beach .
When I got out the Army drove from Mississippi to Alaska with wife and 2 year old girl, in a Dodge B250 high top van with a 318. 318 you can’t kill em. Lost the oil pressure switch out in B.C. Rode 40 more miles into a Canadian NAPA. Worked 2 weeks in Anchorage, for a Vietnam era Green Beret, then drove back. On the way back I would lose the bearings on the front drivers hub, every time I stopped for gas. I’d repack it, and exchange the bearings. Couldn’t figure it . From Anchorage to Memphis, every time I got gas change the bearings???lol Come to find out I was torching the spindle, or the friction from the rotation, was causing the spindle to heat, and swell, stretching the bearing housing. Then when I would stop for fuel, it would cool, and the bearings would tumble out.
To those listening, ( I am only about a quarter of the way through so I don't know if they cover this), this stuff might sound super intimidating but as you do it it'll be second nature, you'll be so good at it'll just be part of your travel plans. I learned this shit from my military father. I was in Panama, all over eastern and northern Europe. 3 south American countries (Venezuela was scary as fuck)
I think traveling is when you are more vulnerable, everything is fun and games, but danger is all around the world, this reminded me the people on Brazil that died because a boat was too close to a rock that fell off over them, you can also avoid tragedies by checking those tours, are they trustfull? are they covering medical emergencies? are they certified?
What an absolutely awesome episode! I may be single with no kids but I have learned a hell of a lot of new tools for when I travel in the future. Keep doing what you're doing brother 👍🇺🇸 PS: thanks for making my boss yell at me LOL I couldn't simply wait till I got home to watch this 😅
Can you talk about how to keep are college age teens safe on a large campus and traveling in their car anywhere in a remote college town? what if the car breaks down and they need help and a bystander offers assistance? Just a few of my most recent worries....thank you for this podcast!
You should've prepared them for that in their teens. Have them practice when they're home how to change a tire, change oil, common car problem. Have a medkit and spare clothes in the car.
When my daughters were 6 and 8 I showed them pictures of Frankenstein and Wolfman, Dracula. I told then these aren't the monsters. These are just the weirdos that want to be left alone. Then I showed them photos of Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Berkowitz etc. I then told them these are the monsters you need to worry about. They carried that lesson with them thru life and still in their late 20s talk about it at Christmas dinner, Thanksgiving "Dad's monster talk" etc. They never forgot that the real monsters look just like you and me and to never just trust anyone ever.
He needs to trademark the "violence advisor" thing, it's hilarious and also accurate. I'm not an advisor yet but I'm definitely an "ethical violence advocate/ evangelist." Lmao.
The missionary episode might be interesting. I am a missionary to Ukriane who is a little misplaced at the moment. but It might be an interesting conversation. at least for some of us ;)
Be truthful and tell them its okay if someone puts hands on you to fight back, scream, yell for help. Be confident, make eye contact with people you encounter....I worried about my two boys growing up, they both took Bjj, which I believe made a difference. They both handled being attacked or bullied different, yet never bullied anyone.
I know it's always better to ask for Forgiveness rather than permission but weapons too; can you even bring firearms with you to Disney? I never have but it's not allowed in the park so I would assume it's not in the room either.
Disney is corrupt! Why hasn’t Disney made a romance movie in the past 20 years?!?!? Why is Disney part of so many human trafficking cases ??? Why does Disney wanna make gender neutral Characters?? CAUSE DISNEY IS EVIL AND RUN BY THE PEDOS
I loved the first episode of this podcast,legit the name of the podcast,this episode in my opinion is clutchin,no doubt some yanks gonna moan....blahhh,but this is so clutch,lookin forward to another episode worth watchin
Wake up !! My God, child trafficking! Drags!! Pedos! Evil at its finest to entrap you into their world, let alone $$ , shaking my head, so many not awake yet !!
Tim “I wish people knew history a little better” as the forum acts as though thousands of years of history prior to WWII never happened. I like y’all and like this podcast, but come on.

It all comes down to all the millions of little decisions before the fight…. You will never rise to the occasion but fall to your level of training - TK
Oh love that saying
You and Chantry have a good podcast going. Keep up the consistency. Don’t let this die.
Visualizing Tim Kennedy at the Cinderella Princess dinner is precious
32:45 that Crystal of clear smile of “I got it” literally priceless bless her heart
I think this is the only podcast not flooded with ads
17:53 yes ,if that publication could be made it will be valuable information for the public at large. Thank you ❤🇺🇸
We need more episodes with these legends
I have been trying to get my son (16yr old) to take things more seriously. Being aware of all the possibilities the world can throw at you. I tried for a year to get him to start Jiu Jitsu with me and had zero luck…. As a last attempt I started listening to Tim Kennedy podcasts around him and he became a fan. Fast forward 3 months and he is coming with me 3 days a week and and is in love it.!!! Tim my next thing I need you to work on is getting him to seriously consider the military. Every male and a lot of the females In my family have served. I’d love for my son to as well. I know your busy but I’d appreciate if your next few podcasts were on how my son needs to serve….😁. Thanks for all you do.
Just remember, serving in the military today is not what it used to be. Vaccine mandates and critical race theory. You could lose your son forever.
The military is like college, it’s not for everyone, but if he looks at it seriously tell him to pick a job he can use out of the military; infantry sounds fun but Air Force cyber security will get him a good paying job after without the bad knees and bad back and Va Claims
He wants to be a pilot, I’m hoping to steer him in that direction through the military.
What do u mean tried? Have u taken him to a BJJ gym?
@@knndyskful Every boy should go into the military. Whether they decide to stay past 4 years is something else, but EVERY boy should serve

12 minutes in I felt so good about my self. I have measured the driving distance and counted with the odometer. Not many people know how to use a map anymore.

Awesome podcast Tim! That is some extremely valuable information.
I never got to have my own family but I'll keep in mind with my niece's and nephews. Good tips thanks
This is great. Very helpful. Wondering if you can do an episode on solo travelling ?
All good info. Solid things to consider and change
Stoked you started a podcast! 🙏

Watching from El Paso, you’re the best!!
Is that Topo Chico? Now I want a Topo Chico…
It’s a good idea to take pictures of the kids before you leave so you know what they’re wearing. I never remember what colours or style they have on.
I've lived in El Paso and Juarez my entire life and when ppl go missing here they are for the most part never found.
