Riding Shotgun With Charlie #246 Nolan Howard 617 Defense It took a while before I was able to have Nolan Howard on the show. In the meantime, he had stories about him and 617 Defense in the Boston Globe and he was on Bearing Arms’ Cam & Co a few times. I’m glad we finally got a chance to do an interview. We've run into each other at a few events hosted by the NRA’s state affiliate, Gun Owners Action League. In the fall of 2025, Nolan hosted a Friends of the NRA dinner in Boston, which I don’t think ever happened before. Nolan grew up in Boston and the Metrowest area of...

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #245 Sara Weaver (feat Tanner Lineberry) Ruby Ridge To Freedom, Author “But did you ask?” This is what Yehuda Remer (RSWC #012) said a time or two. Tanner Lineberry, who works at Second Amendment Foundation, said that Sara Weaver, Randy Weaver’s daughter, was going to be speaking at Gun Rights Policy Conference in Salt Lake City. I had to ask if she would be up for doing the show. She wanted to think about it. Then she was reminded about it a couple weeks before GRPC when I did a post about reading her book. Fortunately, she said she would. Score!...

Black Powder Podcast

At SHOT Show 2025, I met Evered in passing. I was doing a show, someone slipped his card into my pocket, and said reach out to this man. We started following each other on the socials. At NRA AM, we had a chance to film a show.

Evered didn’t get into firearms until he was a father and going through a divorce. He realized that the layout of his place wasn’t necessarily the safest. There was potential for some he said/she said going on. So it was time to pursue getting a carry permit in Georgia.

His first purchase was a Mossberg 88 shotgun. Maybe not the best choice, but we all start somewhere. We’ve all been “tactically frugal.” He said he went all “Amazon tactical” buying things like a scope and a light to put on the gun. He admits “this is why you got to research and study.” His first trip to the range with the Mossy was a bit embarrassing. He wasn’t sure how to hold it so he ended up putting it under his armpit.

This is how he started down the rabbit hole to see that rights are being taken away from us. His taste in gear has also matured since then, too. He moved to a Canick and a Ruger handguns.

One of the goals that Evered has is to become an instructor. After his divorce, things were tough. His daughter was only 6 months old when that happened. He wasn’t getting enough time with her. But he’s looking into getting certified by either the NRA, the USCCA, or by NAAGA. He has been helping some friends get into firearms and helping them along their journey. Taking other courses as a student has helped him get through the hard times that affect divorced people.

Georgia is a permitless carry state, but they still issue permits. Back when Evered was getting started on his firearm journey, he still needed to get a permit and there was a learning curve for that, too.

The Black Powder Podcast is mainly focused on black society and firearms. He takes the name from a cartridge. The fans are the powder. The bullet is the message he’s putting out. He ignites the fans to get the message out. He dropped his first episode on Sept 11, 2020 as a reminder of how we all came together as a country. It was a good year for new beginnings with all that was going on. And thus, a good time to get the new gun owners from 2020 into the fold and learn about firearms, safety, and how and when to use them. Since SHOT Show, he’s gone from just an audio podcast to adding video, which he drops on Mondays.

Before Black Powder Podcast, he was doing Warbound Radio. It was more towards video gaming. But he plans on rebranding that and bringing it back as a men’s positivity podcast. Going through his divorce, he became much more aware how the family court system leans toward the mothers and not the fathers.

This past year was Evered's first year at SHOT. A friend helped him get in. He’s working on a lot of things and I think he’s really getting his message out. He’s got the Black Powder Podcast and YouTube channel. He’s working to become an instructor. And he’s working to reach more people in the community.

Favorite quotes:

“You realize how many rights and how much stuff they’re doing to take stuff away from you.”

“If you can’t walk it and talk it or line it up and shoot it, why are you even doing it in the first place.”

“It was getting me active again, getting all that stupid depression crap off my back.”

“The primer is hit, the power is lit.”

“Any time you act out of fear, it doesn’t end well.”
