Ep 146 | Lt. Col. Dave Grossman | On Everything
2024-01-15
This week we are honored to welcome Lt. Col. Dave Grossman to the podcast! Col. Grossman is an internationally recognized scholar, author, soldier, and speaker who is one of the world’s foremost experts in the field of human aggression and the roots of violence and violent crime. He has five patents to his name, has published four novels, two children’s books, and six non-fiction books, including his “perennial bestseller” On Killing (with over half a million copies sold), and a New York Times best-selling book co-authored with Glenn Beck. Since his retirement from the U.S. Army in 1998, Col. Grossman has been traveling full-time as one of our nation’s leading trainers for military, law enforcement, mental health providers, and school safety organizations.
Listen in as we discuss growing up in the Midwest as the oldest of 5, making the leap from NCO to officer in the Army, developing the field of Killology, how modern medicine impacts statistics on murder and violent crime, how factors like sleep deprivation and early exposure to violence in games and media are impacting our mental health, advances in treating PTSD, managing the subconscious responses of our autonomic nervous system (fight or flight/feed and breed), the importance of "Sheep Dogs," and much, much, more!
