This week, we’ve got one of the most prominent and longest-running Guntubers on the show.
InRangeTV’s Karl Kasarda joins the podcast to discuss his view of the Second Amendment and the backlash his advocacy has generates from other sections of the gun owning community. He argues gun rights belong to everyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. Not everyone agrees with that list.
Kasarda said those pushing for a more limited view of who the Second Amendment protects are doing a disservice to the gun-rights cause. Some, he said, are downright hateful and harassing. But he argued even those that aren’t are shrinking the number of people who could be on their side.
He also gives some insight into what it’s like to run a popular gun channel on YouTube and why he’s proactively demonitized his videos to minimize how much power the platform has over his ability to make videos.

Plus, Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I discuss new claims from the gun industry about the ATF continuing to enforce its controversial “zero tolerance” policy despite Trump’s promises to reverse it. We talk about Trump’s lack of gun policy action so far and why some gun-rights groups are starting to speak out. We also cover a significant new ruling out of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals where a three judge panel just struck down the federal handgun sales ban for young adults.
