Episode notes
Prepare Before You Sit In A Theater
- Prepare before you enter public spaces by training, gear checks, and communication with your partner.
- Andy Stumpf recommends a visible light or weapon-mounted light, knowing backdrop risks, and pre-agreed go/no-go criteria with your spouse.
Zebra Or Horse Decision Making
- Don’t overindex on rare catastrophic events when assessing routine risks.
- Andy uses a zebra/horse parable: statistically you're far more likely to encounter a horse, not a zebra, though you should prepare if a zebra exists.
Use Light To Reduce Identification Uncertainty
- Install and check tools that reduce uncertainty at night, like tritium sights, red dots, and weapon lights.
- Andy warns half your day happens in darkness and suggests illuminating targets to identify threats and disorient attackers.
