In this show, Carrie Lightfoot, of The Well Armed Woman, and Barbara Baird, of Women’s Outdoor News, discuss the FBI’s most recent list for the most dangerous cities in the US. Julie Golob offers a tip about footwear on the range. The pair also talk about trending news, including defending against terrorism, cool products and events. The show is sponsored by Ruger.
Carrie and Barb catch up before launching into the show’s topic, as both have put on some miles in travel since they last conversed. Carrie was at the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s Industry Summit in Austin, Texas, and then traveled to Michigan for a very special event for The Well Armed Woman. Barb spent time in the Dakotas with family.
