   Ep 319 - Clay Novak Pt 2

   Marco was a little nervous going into this one. When the guest is a Lt. Colonel, combat veteran, and published author, it suddenly feels like you’re sitting at the big-boy table. In Part 2 with Lt. Colonel Clay Novak, the conversation picks up where the first episode left off—diving into leadership under pressure, decision-making when the stakes are real, and the lessons that only show up when responsibility lands on your shoulders. Clay talks about the ideas behind his newest book, what separates preparation from bravado, and why pressure doesn’t build character—it reveals it. Marco may have walked in wondering if he belonged in the room. By the end, it was clear he did. Pull up a chair. The big-boy table has room.

Pemium Ep 3 - Rodney King Debrief

Published 8 Apr 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] Right, the carotid. Carotid and the chancery, and there was a couple of them that we had. And the other thing was, I remember as a young officer, Myself and other officers, you'd see somebody that you were trying to cuff and get subdued, and four or five officers would be trying to take someone, and they're flailing, and their arms are going out, and they're kicking and that kind of a thing. And that was a non-starter, that kind of tactic. was a non-starter. And so we kind of got a, when I say non-starter, it was not effective. And so we kind of got the thought, and I was the same way, that having four or five guys come in and just jump on a guy wasn't often working. […]
