Editor's note: We forgot to edit out the single f-bomb mid episode. Sorry. Also keep in mind... the title of our show (and our whole company, is "Uncensored...") We just got back in town from teaching another course for the people over at EnergeticEntry.com known as "T.E.E.S." It was great to see not only a full house, but an overbooked course. Tactical Lock Picking is a skill that the tactical community badly needs, and it's nice to see that it's starting to catch on within the community....

Maybe not our most viral topic, but one that is immensely important for the tactical training community - sharing our successes and failures for each course that we wrap up!

One of the nice things about the modern internet world is that you can take a much deeper look at the potential training courses that you'd like to attend before...

Today, Pat talk solo about a new product from Southern Specialties (LockPickTools.com) called "The Lock Blocker."

Today a long time student, and good friend, @BlindFury, joins us to discuss his journey of learning lock picking as someone who is visually impaired. BlindFury, Matt, has been a student of UTAC for around 4 years or so now, and has written articles for Covert Entry Magazine Issues 1 & 2 both.  I have a feeling he'll be coming back onto the show in the future as I've always enjoyed his perspectives and how well spoken he is.  If you have any feedback for the show, please feel free to...
