In this episode, Adam sits down with Jon Becker, founder of Aardvark and host of the new podcast, "The Debrief with Jon Becker". They break down Jon's background and dive into what inspired him to start The Debrief podcast.

Adam and Jon find many commonalities between The Tactical Breakdown and The Debrief, specifically the desire to share as much knowledge and information with the Law Enforcement community as possible. They discuss the launch of the podcast and the decision to lead with Jon's interview with Sid Heal, a pioneer in tactical operations, who tragically passed in May 2022. Jon describes Sid's influence on him and the entire tactical community.

Also covered is the start of AARDVARK and how Jon became one of the preeminent creators and distributors of tactical operations equipment in the United States and what drives his company to keep innovating.
