On Training Talk: Inside the minds of instructors
On yesterday’s episode of Training Talk we took an in-depth look at some of the classes on this year’s PDN Training Tour. I was joined by Caleb Causey of Lone Star Medics and we talked about what he does, why he does it, and why his material is important to the person living the self-reliant lifestyle.
I had a great conversation and learned about some courses I’ve not yet taken.
Be sure to check out the replay!
