Great Information
I just found CCW Safe a month ago. These podcast are very helpful. I also like how their insurance works compared to the other insurance providers out there.

Volume
Live the podcast. If I can hear it. If there’s any background noise, as in a gym or driving, I can hear a word of it. Please, record at a higher volume. We can always turn it down if needed. Keep up the good work. Very insightful podcast with truly important information. Thanks to all.

Great legal discussion
Love the law and I carry for my protection and for that of my family--having listened to this for a while now, I can't believe I've carried for so long without--such a dangerous proposition! Being a CCW Safe member, it gives me a warm feeling knowing these guys would be my legal team God forbid anything terrible ever happened.

Education and Conversation
Valuable education and good conversation. After-Action-Analysis.
I strongly encourage comparison, and beware the hidden details: Biggest deal-breakers for me would be when the coverage for criminal defense is not high enough, or when it’s a reimbursement plan, or has caveats of needing to repay them if the defendant accepts a plea or is convicted. Next deal-breaker would be the company not honoring their promise to help. CCW Safe has no criminal defense limit. The civil defense won't matter near as much as the criminal; and some states give immunity to civil if the defendant wins the criminal case. So criminal defense is far more important, and USCCA is not near high enough. True that some crimes happen by people known to the person, but in today's age of censorship, rioting, looting and the division (which we're seeing begin in America) it would not surprise me if strangers assault victims nor would it surprise to learn of crimes of opportunity. USCCA has a clause in the contract that if the defendant accepts a plea or is convicted they may then seek to be repaid for every dollar they spent. Other worse companies (not compared here) will only pay after the defendant is found not guilty, which is like sending the army after you win the war: resources not available when I need them. Also, USCCA currently has a lawsuit against them for not paying out the benefits to one of their active platinum members, and they won't comment when asked. If they were going to deny any case on a whim then they need to state as much up front in the contract. I personally like CCW Safe and Armed Citizens' Legal Defense Network the most. The caveat to ACLDN is that they may deny the case, but they are superbly qualified to review the case based on the members of their team including Massad Ayoob, John Farnam, Dennis Tueller, and others.

Excellent podcast; sketchy legal services
Review is for the podcast, not their legal services (keep reading for reasons).
We have the right to keep and bear arms. For responsibly armed citizens, that RIGHT to bear arms should inspire RESPONSIBILITY to learn their effective and proper use. There are a few podcasts as good at presenting the legal aspects—the proper use—of firearms for self defense as this one. It’s a great source of information for what to do and—as important—what not to do in situations where you’re making a life or death decision about drawing your gun. A great podcast for learning what you need to know if you carry a firearm for self defense.
Now if they’d only get rid of (or at least objectively define) the impairment exclusion in their legal services plan I might purchase it. As it stands, if you were in a self-defense incident they could deny coverage if you had half a beer at your friend’s house and the responding officer put “alcohol on breath” in his report. Since even a sip of alcohol technically impairs you (if only in a minuscule way), they can trigger this exclusion.

Knowledgeable and Informative, Compelling
I’m relatively new to pistols and Concealed Carry. I grew up in a rural area where every kid had a 22 and every dad had deer rifles, but the only handguns were 45s grandpa brought back from WWII in his sock drawer. And we didn’t know he had a Tommygun in his closet ;)
It was a different world. I’ve been listening to these trying to learn as much as I can to be a responsible protector of my family, have some fun at the range, but also know the laws and such.
I’ve learned more about disengagement and de-escalation of confrontation and letting the other guy “win” the argument. Very similar to the techniques I learned in Martial arts years ago.
Good stuff, keep it coming.

Excellent content
Great podcast with excellent content.
But I have to complain about the volume levels. 3 guys talking and one guy’s volume is twice as loud as the others, makes it difficult to listen.

Great podcast LTC holders
Love this podcast!
Only thing to complain about is they take forever to put up new episodes!
Wish they were more up to date considering all that’s going on now.
Kenosha... and so on

Great podcast
I’ve been a 2nd Amendment believer my whole life, but never thought about what happens after an event. I’ve got my home defense planned out, but never thought about what happens after the cops show up. A ton of great information and I love their stories about when they’re on patrol. Love the camaraderie these guys have.
The lawyers are informative and very well received.
My favorite podcast.

Great discussion
Please go check out the neighbor of Dunns of 8 years, he was a lifelong cocaine abuser, alcoholic & scam artist ie Liar. He was high that night hence why he did not call police. That was why he fired, was paranoid Nd aggressive. The carryer of a gun must be drug free! Except medical cannabis etc.

A must listen for every concealed carrier.
Very informative with real life scenarios.

Great information on self defense
A wide variety of guests and topics when it comes to self defense. Also great to have the various hosts they have had on with different guests. A real win-win in keeping things fresh on the podcast.

Sound quality needs MAJOR improvement
Too often the speakers' voices sound distant, distorted, and muffled. It sounds like they're in a tunnel standing far away. It is also often inconsistent volume from one speaker to the next. So you have to turn the volume up really loud to understand what one person is saying, only to have your ears bleed and ring when the next guy talks. Please invest in some decent quality microphones and recording devices, each speaker needs their own dedicated mic. Figure out the correct audio normalization amongst multiple speakers, so that the volume is appropriately balanced. These much needed improvements are not expensive and will really improve the quality of the podcasts drastically for very little investment. It sounds very amateur and unprofessional. I expect better from CCW Safe.

Very pleased with my decision to be a member. The podcasts reinforce my decision to come on board. I’m a trucker and listen frequently. Always waiting for the next podcast to be released. I spread the word to everyone that will listen. Larry Vickers was the endorsement that helped me make my decision, as I trust his judgment. Keep up the great work! I look forward to meeting you guys one day.

Excellent podcast
I really enjoy this podcast. The information given in each episode is top notch. Listening to you guys increases my confidence in CCW Safe and assures me that I’ve made the correct decision in becoming a member.

Unable to listen because of quality
I am a CCW Safe member and I am embarrassed by the quality of this podcast. Come on guys hire a professional and get it done right. You guys want to show a professional face and inspire confidence and get good information out there but your podcast is almost unlistenable. You have people yelling from the other side of the room or people on a speakerphone it just sounds horrible. Invest in a pro, get some dedicated equipment and let’s produce something professional. Even Mike the cop on YouTube produces better stuff than you and it’s him and his son.
