Is Colorado a warning sign for the rest of America?
In Episode 82 of The Daily Carry Podcast, we sit down with Nick Rogers of the Big Timber Lodge podcast to unpack the heavy realities shaping our state and our nation.
From the high-stakes 2026 Colorado political race to rising concerns around crime, financial strain, and evil policies, we don’t hold back. This conversation goes beyond headlines, diving into what’s really happening at both the state and federal levels.
But this episode doesn’t stop at politics. We confront the deeper issue: the undeniable battle between good and evil playing out in real time. What does it mean to stand firm in your faith in a world that feels increasingly unstable?
We close with a powerful moment of prayer and a direct call to action for Christians: Now is not the time to be silent. It’s time to rise, living out your faith boldly, not just hearing the Word, but doing it.
Will you stand?
James 1:22 (NIV): “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.”
Romans 12:21 (NIV): “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

In Part 2 of Episode 79, we bring the conversation closer to home, zooming in on the tensions unfolding right here in Colorado and across the country. What looks like a political battle on the surface runs much deeper than policy, headlines, or party lines.
We unpack what’s really driving the conflict: a clash of values, identity, and ultimately something spiritual at its core.
But this isn’t a call to escalate, it’s a call to recognize the battlefield for what it is. Because if Part 1 taught us anything, it’s that reacting without discipline only fuels the fire. Real strength shows up in how we carry ourselves, how we prepare, and how we choose to respond under pressure.
This episode challenges you to stay grounded, think critically, and stand firm without losing sight of what matters most.
“If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” - Romans 12:18
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” - Ephesians 6:12

In Part 1 of Episode 79, we take a hard look at how quickly situations can spiral out of control, and what it really takes to keep them from getting there. From street encounters that turn into life-altering violence, to high-stakes decisions behind the wheel when seconds matter, to the broader forces shaping conflict in our world today, escalation is always closer than we think.
But here’s the truth: anyone can escalate. It takes discipline, awareness, preparation, and real training to de-escalate.
This episode challenges you to think beyond reaction and lean into responsibility, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Because avoiding the fight, when possible, is often the highest level of readiness.
In Part 2, we’ll continue the conversation and take a deeper dive into the conflict closer to home, the cultural and political tensions here in Colorado, and what’s really at the root of it all.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.”- Matthew 5:9

Episode 78 is one of our most intense breakdowns yet.
We dive into the shocking California fraud investigation uncovered by Nick Shirley, what’s real, what’s being ignored, and why it’s not getting the attention it should.
Then we call out the blame game dominating the country right now, who’s pointing fingers, who’s dodging accountability, and how narratives are being spun right in front of us.
But the biggest conversation? The Iran situation.
We get into rising tensions, the presence of the USS Tripoli near the Strait of Hormuz, and the high-stakes implications for global conflict. Is this about security, or something deeper?
We also examine controversial claims circulating online, including questions around influence, power, and whether oil is the real driver behind it all.
No fluff. No filters. Just the conversations most people won’t touch.

In Episode 77, we open up about a difficult situation, our coffee shop has come under online attack because we stand for Christian values. We share what’s been happening, how it’s affected us, and the tension between running a business and staying true to our faith.
This episode isn’t just about backlash, it’s about conviction, courage, and what it really means to stand firm when it costs you something. We talk honestly about navigating criticism, responding with grace, and staying true to conviction when the pressure hits.
If you’ve ever faced opposition for what you believe, this conversation is for you.

Episode 76 of The Daily Carry Podcast dives into faith, purpose, and preparedness. We start by discussing the impact of Tim Tebow and the incredible work he’s doing in the non-profit world, along with reflecting on his famous John 3:16 testimony that sparked conversations far beyond football.
From there we dig into a deeper discussion about the Bible, why we believe it’s trustworthy, some of the evidence supporting its legitimacy, and why it continues to stand the test of time. We also keep things fun with some everyday carry gear talk, survival scenario discussions, and practical preparedness insights.
We also announced several upcoming community events you won’t want to miss:
• PBG Open – This Saturday - 9 AM• JWI 5 (Jared Wayne Invitational) – March 28 - 7 PM• Cross Build Sunday – March 29 - 1 PM• Carry Your Cross Challenge – April 4 - 10 AM
As always, we wrapped up the episode in prayer and gratitude for this growing community.

In Episode 75 of The Daily Carry Podcast, we sit down with Colorado U.S. Senate candidate Amanda Calderon for a wide-ranging conversation about the issues facing our nation, our state, and the world. We talk through major national and global challenges, as well as the real concerns people here in Colorado are dealing with every day.
Many of the solutions seem like they should be simple, often just a matter of applying a little common sense, but we also dig deeper into why so many problems persist. That deeper conversation led us to something bigger: the reality that many of the struggles we see today are part of a much larger battle between good and evil. We discuss how politics, culture, and society all reflect that spiritual conflict, and why policy alone can’t ultimately fix what’s broken.
Amanda shares her perspective on leadership, responsibility, and the importance of faith in navigating difficult times. We close the episode in prayer and with a reminder that while the world’s problems can feel overwhelming, there is still real hope. Because in the end, the only true and lasting solution is Jesus Christ.
“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.” - 1 Timothy 6:10
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.” - Matthew 6:24

In this Episode, we’re joined by Danielle Lammon, Colorado State Senate candidate challenging Tom Sullivan. Danielle shares her heart for serving Colorado, her approach to leadership, and why she believes it’s time for a different voice at the Capitol. We dive into the policies and principles driving her campaign and what she sees as the biggest challenges facing Colorado families today.
Of course, it wouldn’t be The Daily Carry without talking gear. Danielle brought in a special edition Rambo knife, and we got into the story behind it, and why preparedness and mindset matter just as much as policy.
It’s a conversation about courage, conviction, and stepping up to serve, and we close the episode in prayer for wisdom, strength, and guidance for Colorado’s future.
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” - James 1:5
