All right, we are back. We are back.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
We're waiting to get advance on the line so we
can talk to them.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
We can talk to them and see what's out some
them more of the week, and they might be busy.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
This was all their priced. I was at jigs before
I got here. Packed, I mean packed. This is this
is the dream week for us dudes, for the testostering guys,
because we love jags, we love dvances, and we love roosters.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
So and this.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Is the unofficial start to summer.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yeah, and he's on. Were they racing Talladay or Daytona.
I'm NASCAR's got a big race. I'm just drawing a blank.
But yeah, it's definitely a testostering weekend for us.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
It really is se the unofficial start to summer. If
you ladies could say they stuck around with the Avenue
Wellness Center because we're still waiting to get an old advance.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
How are they on? We have them on?
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Okay there, Linda, Hi, Linda, you swamped today. I bet
you guys are packed.
Speaker 5 (00:52):
Actually, the story is pretty busy today. It's good.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
I know, I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but man,
I bet today's a day. Man, you go and get
your firearms and you get your stuff ready for summer
to go target shooting even outside.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah. Yeah, absolutely, it is the unofficial start to summer.
Is this one of your busiest seasons, Linda.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
Actually, this is the slowest season for us, really really well, yeah,
people are outside doing things. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
So, so, Linda, I got somewhat of a legal question,
and you don't have the answer the legal question. Yeah,
because mace. I know, you teach the ladies how to
use mace. Can you get in trouble for macing someone?
As long as you're protecting yourself.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
As long as you can legally to find why you
get to your guts.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
But mace really doesn't hurt any I mean it burns,
but you know it's a bad day for you if
you're trying to get someone's purse.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
Well, I mean, if people would have asthma or other
health conditions, they can lead to other problems.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
Okaypy, Yes, did you guys see in the news it
was like last week or something that this Ohio high
school maced its students to let them know what it's like,
and they had their parents on board.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
They all had to sign waivers and then they actually
line these kids up along the outside brick wall and
mace them one at a time.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
You didn't see that any eyes?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, did you see that?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Hopefully? Hopefully it was a kids in detention.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
The police academy. It was trying to deter them from crime.
This is why you don't want to get in trouble
with the police.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
That's a good ideas.
Speaker 7 (02:29):
The police academy does it too. They'll mace there what
they used to. They'll mase their cadets so that they
know what it feels like, so they don't just do it.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Lucy Goosey, Yeah, is pepper spray and mace the same thing? Can, Yes,
but pepper spray is more natural. Okay, well that's what
I think they used.
Speaker 7 (02:42):
It was.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Yeah, Well that's all about health when you sprains one
eye with some poison, right, So, Linda, I mean, say
you have a lady comes to your class and she says,
I'm not feeling comfortable using a firearm, then would you
coach her?
Speaker 5 (02:55):
At that point we talked about otherly non lethal means,
so pepper sprays and tasers, stun guns. The biggest, most
important thing is awareness. What's going to surround you?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, what do you think is the most beneficial thing
that women get out and men to But more more importantly,
women were kind of focusing on that right now when
they take your classes. Is it kind of empowerment to know,
you know what, don't be a victim?
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Exactly exactly, because if you can pay attention to what's
going on around you, you can eliminate so many things
from happening because you're not letting it get that close
to you in the versace.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
So do you teach them to scan? So a lot
of people make fun of me no matter where I go,
I scan the room.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Well, a lot of people make fun of you period
were I know.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
But when it comes to safety, do you teach the
ladies to scan constantly?
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Well, it's not a constant thing. It's really just being
aware of your surroundings because you do. I don't want
to be in that state of anxiety that you know,
orange level at all times because I'm stressful on your body,
on your body, So just you know, don't have your
face in your phone and just be looking around, looking
(04:17):
around at people, looking around at what's going on.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I agree, I mean I can tell you everybody around
me in restaurant I'm not going to be a victim.
I'm not going to be that guy. No, I think
that's me and I will judge a book by its cover.
I don't care. I'm going to look at that guy
looks shady over there. If he jumps out something stupid,
I'm not going to be his victim.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
When someone signs up for one of your classes, Linda,
how long does it last and how soon do they
get filled up?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
That depends on the class. So we have two hour classes,
four hour classes in our concealed carry class for the
State of a Highways mandated at eight hours, and it
really depends on what's like right now. Our classes are
not full because it's summer. There's weddings and graduations, all
of these things going on that keep people from thinking
(05:05):
classes right now.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I think that's a good idea, though, You'll go now
when you're not going to get locked out of the class,
it's less busy. You probably get more attention, more one
on one attention.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
Exactly. That's what I was just going to say. You
get more more timing class one on one, You get
more of that personalized instruction, more of those questions asked, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Yeah, well there you go.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
So we didn't talk about boats because we know we
always talk about self defense with you. But it is
that time of year, and I know one of your
locations is booming with boat sails.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
Right now, hey, Brian, Yeah, we have both down at
our Lebanon location two. Both of them are doing very well,
and we have lots of boats in stock and available
and they're making great deals on them.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
All right, So how they get ahold of advances?
Speaker 5 (05:55):
Go to our website and Vans outdoors dot com.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Right, always a pleasure. We'll talk to you in a
few weeks, right, yes, we will, all right, thank you,
take Carolynd. So that's a good point. I mean, I
like how Kimberly's taking her head like yep, so you
can go out and write. Do you learn that from
your sister being a cop?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
No, I was in martial arts.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
Oh that's right, okay, yeah, And so you just have
to be aware of your surroundings. And my kids joke
with me, but when we go out in the restaurant,
I never sit with my back to a door, and
so I sit with my face to a door.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
You just have to be aware of what's around you.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Can we go to a friendly dinner together and a
sketchy part of time, and I want you to watch
you do a like I would love to see a
pretty redhead kick the crap out of a bad guy
that would make mine.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
I've been in a situation where you really feared for
your life and you thought this might not end well.
Speaker 7 (06:38):
So when my kids were young, their dad traveled five
days a week every week, and I really was very
concerned about whether or not I could protect my children
and defend us and get us out if something happened.
And so I started taking martial arts classes and became
a second degree block belt, was studying for my.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Third degree, and there, oh, I want to see your
Andrew take a swing at her.
Speaker 7 (07:04):
And there was one day that it was I was
at a Meyer in Westerville, and I was loading my
car with groceries, and my kids weren't with me, but
there were two guys that kind of came through and
started giving me a little bit of a vibe.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And saying things.
Speaker 7 (07:22):
And I looked, and I assessed, and I knew for
the first time that I could take on two people
at the same time of things. And I was and
I felt, I don't want to say good but I
felt safer and I felt more confident at that point,
and I thought, okay, okay, no, because I it's the
way you present yourself as well too, and so you
(07:42):
can never present yourself as a victim.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Your son's sitting right next to you. How cool is
that to hear your mom talk like that, Ethan?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Oh, I mean it's sweet, like see when you're thirteen,
bad mouth of black belt.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Yeah, I knew.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I mean up until I was taller than her, I
was pretty confidence she could she could take me, maybe
even know she said the bar though.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Now whoever you dain or marry has to be as
bad ass as your mom.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I'm a mama's boy too, and it's rough because no
one will ever, I don't know, be as good as mom.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
No, his girlfriend is absolutely amazing. She's she's a wonderful,
wonderful young woman and she better be your whipper and shape.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Imagine Thanksgiving.
Speaker 7 (08:24):
That's fantastic. We've we've talked about doing a cane food
for older adults.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
You know I've seen that.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Yeah, that's cool. He's a cane as a deturn.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Yeah, you're never too old, fool.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, the way to think, it's really just you're using
it because you have to me not.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
If you're having a slow week. Send her down Mere
and she breaks some people up and you bring them
women in the chamber.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yeah, it kind of got me a section of job Well,
Westerville's Mere bad. I didn't that about area town that
was And you know what, anything can happen anywhere anytime,
specifically place you need.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
To be really be on alert.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
I always say, if I was a bad guy and
I'm going to row places, it's not going to be
down on Miller and Kelton. I'm going to Westvil, Dublin,
Upper Ardington, Grove City, Hilliard.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Oh Am, I God, it's Steel VCR. I want the
good stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
