Hello My Happy People,
This week on Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt, I talk with author, journalist, and martial artist Jason Brick about his mission to make families safer. With decades of martial arts training, work as a bodyguard, and experience as a dad, Jason brings unique insight into personal safety and violence prevention.
In our chat, we highlight his book There I Was…When Nothing Happened: True Tales of Violence Prevention from Professionals in the Field, which shares over 50 real-life stories from experts in law enforcement, martial arts, and security. Each story shows how preparation, awareness, de-escalation, and escape can prevent violence before it starts.
Jason also introduces Safest Family on the Block, his podcast and book project built around interviews with experts ranging from bodyguards to school administrators, to name just a few. His work gives parents and communities practical tools to protect what matters most.
If you’ve ever worried about how to keep you and your family safe, this episode offers practical tools and real-life wisdom you can use right away to give you peace of mind. Don't wait, go listen now!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
